BlackRock acquired $3,630,000,000 $ETH since launching their Ethereum ETF. When the world's largest asset manager is buying up Ethereum like there's no tomorrow. You know something big is on the horizon.

According to a recent report by crypto analytics firm CryptoQuant, more than 28,000 BTC ($2.6 billion) were accumulated by big players in the crypto market. According to the CQ, these accumulated addresses consist of Over-the-Counter (OTC) trading desks, major institutional investors, and long-term HOLDers. The move is bullish for the premier digital currency as these wallet addresses aren’t associated with spot cryptocurrency exchange accounts and are a sign of long-term accumulation. In other words, more than $2.5 billion worth of BTC was taken off the market, which can considerably affect market pressure in the coming weeks. Bitcoin’s Recent Price Stagnation Here is Bitcoin’s price action from the last three months: Image Source: TradingView The largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization has had an uneventful last 3-4 months overall. The index has largely stuck between the relatively narrow $93k-$106k trading range with only minor price deviations in between. While this frustrates many crypto users, we must consider the larger market economy. The American stock market has been under immense pressure for the last few weeks because of the surprise arrival of the Chinese AI chatbot Deepseek. The market has witnessed double-digit losses overall. However, Bitcoin has been able to considerably shake off the negative market pressure and rein in any major bearish concerns. On the other hand, price stagnation is very real and is starting to shake some nerves among investors. The important news is that a long period of price stagnation often follows up with a sharp price increase or decrease. The Future As Bitcoin accumulation statistics pile up, the market will likely bounce back soon enough. The buy forces are still strong, and on-chain data supports the resumption of the bull market. However, considering evolving factors like the feared USA-China trade war and under-pressure AI investments, continuing this bull market may take some time. Big news regarding Donald Trump’s campaign promise of a Bitcoin strategic reserve might provide the spark needed right now. There is no clear timeline for when this major market opportunity will arise, but one can expect the situation to improve in the second quarter of 2025, with a probable peak emerging in the fourth quarter of 2025.

CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju says Bitcoin (BTC) will not slide into a bear market this year, citing a positive bull range. Recent crypto price trajectories have sparked low sentiments amid persistent volatility. In light of these, several experts have backed the price action, highlighting pro-industry factors. Bitcoin price remains under $100K as the United States trade policies affect the asset and tech stocks. BTC Price At $77K Won’t Trigger Bear Phase Young Ju explained in a series of X posts that the bull market is still taking its course despite headwinds. After posting data on the realized price for many investor categories including old whales, new whales, miner balances, etc he projected the bull run to take its course this year. Replying to an X user on the conditions if participants dumped 20% of holdings, he added that even a 30% dip from the all-time high would not trigger a bear market. Last month, the price soared past $109K, setting a 30% mark around $77K, citing past cycles. This fueled new optimism among traders today, as bulls point to a recovery before the end of the month. “I don’t think we’ll enter a bear market this year. We’re still in a bull cycle. The price would eventually go up, but the range seems broad. I personally think that the bull cycle could continue even with a -30% dip from ATH (e.g., 110K → 77K), as seen in past cycles.” Bitcoin price trading below $100k sparked a series of major upsets on the broader market. First, retail traders sold huge holdings, watering down anticipation for the bull beak. While institutional volumes are major indicators, retail numbers are also crucial to increased adoption. Furthermore, present trends caused major outflows in altcoins below the previous support levels. Institutional Investors Back Major Rebound Like Young Ju, several industry participants and institutions have restated bull predictions. Amid retail outflows, institutions capitalized to buy the dip, creating favorable positions ahead of a recovery. Recently, huge whales picked up large amounts of assets coupled with a move out of exchanges. A major driver of BTC sentiment remains spot ETFs in the United as products continue to attract inflows. These funds have led to many firms making significant investments as mainstream exposure soars. Recently, Ark Invests CEO Cathie Wood restated a $1.5 million bull case by 2030.

DeFi activities have picked up on several networks after increased stablecoin supply. TRON has become a major USDT hub with record volumes in the last four years. Stablecoins remain pivotal to gauging crypto market growth as the tokens are often referred to as gateway assets to institutional investors. Analysts Back Tron’s DeFi Volumes Tron’s USDT supply spiked to $62 billion from $6.7 billion in 2021, marking a staggering increase in stablecoin adoption. This heightened figure shows a major increase in stablecoin adoption attracting huge liquidity to crypto assets. Industry analysts also flag rising DeFi activities on TRON and other networks. This month, DeFi activities dipped as a result of the wider market downturn, which left traders cautious. Increasing sell pressure lowered sentiments with assets losing recorded in Q4 2024. Overall, most networks saw a decline in total value locked (TVL) alongside a plunge in trading volumes. Investors amass stablecoins because they serve as a bridge to DeFi tokens and are not volatile like other assets. “Comparing the growth of USDT supply on TRON’s TRC-20 protocol to Ethereum’s ERC-20 protocol highlights TRON’s recent dominance. In summary, TRON’s substantial increase in USDT supply and its growing role in the DeFi ecosystem reflect its rapid development and the increasing adoption of its blockchain platform. These trends suggest a promising future for TRON as a central player in the evolving landscape of decentralized finance,” CryptoQuant wrote. This also applies to the TON network, which recorded a decline in TVL amid present trading conditions. At the time of writing, the network’s TVL hit $171 million,n with daily volumes at $12.1 million. However, staking activities tapped new highs, suggesting more holders are shifting to earning yield on assets. Sinking Altcoins Can Limit DeFi Gains As investors look towards DeFi tokens and yield earnings, altcoin headwinds have posed limitations. After Bitcoin’s price dropped under $100K, altcoins followed the same path, plummeting below support. These can impact the anticipated growth in DeFi, considering low sentiments in Ethereum, Solana, and other assets. Ethereum’s price stands at $2,708, far below the expected level after speculations. Last year, traders tipped the asset to soar above $5K in the next altcoin season. A similar decline has also been recorded in XRP and Solana. XRP broke the $3 mark before slipping to $2.64, wiping out huge gains.

The post Pi Coin Price Prediction: What’s Next After 30% Crash? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News Pi Coin, the digital currency of Pi Network, has officially launched its Mainnet and been listed on several major exchanges, including OKX and Bitget, among others. Following the launch, Pi Coin’s price surged to $1.4, with some platforms seeing an all-time high of over $2. However, the price has recently dropped, hovering around $1.18, after a 30% crash. The Pi Network Mainnet launch marks a significant milestone for the project, which has been in development for six years. Users who completed their KYC process can now migrate their Pi coins to the Mainnet and use them for transactions, business payments, and other applications within the Pi ecosystem. Amid speculations of scam, analyst Kim Wong wrote, “Pi Network has been distributing wealth to all the people in the world whoever wants it, free, this has benefited millions of people already.” Despite initial high expectations for Pi Coin’s value—ranging from $100 to $500—many predictions have fallen short. The coin’s value, while lower than anticipated, still represents a big achievement for holders, as those who accumulated coins during the network’s test phase can now exchange them for real value. A user wrote on X, “I will not sell my $PI coins, which I have worked for 6 years, for a ridiculous price like $2 dollars. $XRP is over $2.5 with a 60B supply. These prices are ridiculous with a 100M supply. I will not sell without 1 $PI = $50.” Another user shared that Pi Network has made crypto history. After launching its open mainnet, Pi’s market cap almost entered the top 10 and is expected to break into the top $3 soon. They believe that once Pi staking starts, the price will soar.
