Michael Saylor puts pressure back on bitcoin at a time when the market doubts. His message published on March 22 revives a very simple idea: at Strategy, the decline has not broken the appetite to buy.
Bitcoin shows a more constructive signal: large holders sell less, while miners are still slowing their sales despite increasing pressure.
Gold sends a more contrasted signal than it appears. Behind the classic image of a safe haven, the market today shows a clear divide between retail investors who continue buying via ETFs and institutions who have started to lighten their positions.
The TRUMP token is rising again, but not for a technical or fundamental reason. This time, it is the promise of privileged access to Mar-a-Lago that rekindles speculation. A few weeks before the gala announced for April 25, large wallets are back in action, transforming this memecoin once again into a prestige asset rather than a simple market token.
Bitcoin holds its breath before one of the most sensitive macro appointments of the month. This Wednesday, March 18, 2026, the Federal Reserve must announce its monetary policy decision at 2:00 pm Eastern Time, before Jerome Powell's press conference at 2:30 pm. For the crypto market, the stakes go far beyond a simple central bank formality. The next moves of the dollar, bond yields, and risk appetite are decided within minutes.
The crypto market reopened the week with a brutal move. Bitcoin surpassed 73,000 dollars on March 16, while Ether regained the 2,200 dollar zone. At the same time, nearly 300 million dollars of short positions were liquidated within 24 hours, which accelerated the rise.
The Ethereum Foundation has just monetized a small part of its reserve. The operation remains limited in volume, but it says a lot about the Foundation's new financial discipline and the rise of crypto treasury companies.
American spot Bitcoin ETFs have just sent a signal that the market had been waiting for several weeks. For the first time in 2026, they have recorded five consecutive sessions of net inflows. During this sequence, about $767 million were absorbed by these products, marking a visible return of institutional demand for bitcoin.
Tether has restarted the engine. The issuer of the market's first stablecoin created 1 billion dollars in USDT on Tron, a move that brings the crypto liquidity issue back to the center of the game at a time when geopolitical tensions are already shaking global markets.
The scenario seems huge. However, Bitwise argues that a bitcoin at 1 million dollars does not necessarily imply total dominance over gold. According to Matt Hougan, the company's chief investment officer, bitcoin would only need to capture about 17% of the global store of value market within ten years to reach this symbolic threshold.
BitMine is clearly accelerating on Ethereum (ETH). The company has added 60,976 ETH to its reserves, bringing its total stock to about 4.5 million ETH. This move confirms a simple strategy: to bet stronger on Ethereum crypto just as the market tries to exit a weakness phase.
One might think that "more attacks" = "more money." In 2025, reality took a twist. According to Chainalysis, ransomware groups have multiplied breaches (nearly 8,000 leak events, +50% year on year), but on-chain payments reportedly fell to around $820M (≈ -8%). In other words: they are more active… for a less generous harvest.
DAOs dream of a world where decisions are made “by the crowd.” In practice, the crowd yawns. And Vitalik Buterin has just pointed out the real core issue: it’s not (only) a problem of rules, it’s a problem of attention. Too many votes, too many topics, too much technicality… and in the end, a minority decides while the majority lets it pass.
The threshold of 50% of ETH "in staking" announced by Santiment looks like a reassuring milestone, almost triumphant. But it triggers a controversy: does this figure really measure active staking or only accumulated deposits? The difference is not trivial, as it changes the reading of supply, network security, and market sentiment.
Balaji Srinivasan claims that Western governments will eventually launch massive asset seizure campaigns. This will happen as a sovereign debt crisis approaches. He foresees a time when the State will seek new means since the bill is increasing and the option "carry on as before" is closing. This alert, published via X according to multiple press reprises, quickly circulated in the crypto ecosystem.
