A growing number of market commentators are reinforcing the idea that Bitcoin may have already established a cycle bottom at around $60,000. Crypto analyst Astronomer on X has doubled down on his earlier call, arguing that the $60K region marked a decisive low for Bitcoin, with price action holding firm for over eight weeks despite persistent bearish expectations. Bitcoin $60K Holds Strong, Technical and On-Chain Signals Align The analyst says his call that Bitcoin bottomed around $60K wasn’t based on just one signal, but several factors lining up.

Simon Seojoon Kim, CEO of crypto asset management company Hashed, has developed a comprehensive valuation tool for Ethereum. Called “ETHval,” the model aims to offer investors a broader perspective by calculating Ethereum’s “fair value” using 12 different methodologies. According to the developed model, Ethereum’s current price is $2,291.5, while the “composite fair value,” calculated from the combination of 12 models, is $4,222. This suggests that the asset may be approximately 84% “undervalued.” Related News XRP’s Sharpe Ratio Has Risen Significantly: What Does This Mean? ETHval brings together 12 different valuation approaches grouped under four main categories. Traditional finance models evaluate…

Yield-bearing stablecoins are growing faster than the broader stablecoin market, according to Messari, as Washington remains divided over how crypto-linked yield should be treated under US law. Yield-bearing stablecoins have outpaced the growth of the broader stablecoin market 15-fold over the past six months, according to a Messari research report published on Thursday. The increase was driven by a 198% rise in the market cap of Circle’s USYC (USYC), a 169% increase in Paxos’ Global Dollar (USDG), a 114% rise in the value of the Tron DAO-linked Decentralized USD (USDD), and a 91% rise in Ondo Finance’s Ondo US Dollar…

The old “token playbook” is over, according to 21Shares researcher Darius Moukhtarzade, who said that launching at high FDV, low float with a governance “meme coin” does not work anymore. Moukhtarzade explained that there is a widening “sentiment-fundamentals gap” as the core reason behind failing token launches. On one hand, fundamentals remain strong, amid a growing global user base, improving regulatory clarity, rising institutional participation, and scalable infrastructure supporting long-term adoption. On the other hand, market sentiment is deeply negative. This is evidenced in extreme fear levels, repeated failures of recent token generation events (TGEs), and capital dilution caused by…

Bitcoin is moving inside a tight short term range while a broader chart suggests the market is still cooling from earlier excess. One chart shows whales defending key levels on both sides. Meanwhile, another places $BTC back near its long term fair value zone. Together, they point to a market that has lost momentum but has not chosen its next direction yet. In the near term, traders are watching whether Bitcoin can break through heavy sell walls above or lose bid support below. At the same time, the longer term regression model suggests the recent correction has eased some of…

Ethereum price today: $2,290 Ethereum faces supply pressure near the cost basis of accumulation addresses. Retail wallets distributed 756K $ETH over the past week amid persistent bearishness in perpetuals. $ETH continues to hold the support near the 20- and 50-day EMAs. Ethereum ($ETH) is hovering near $2,300 on Tuesday, following signs of distribution across key onchain metrics over the past week, as US-Iran peace talks leave the market in a state of uncertainty. The Accumulation Addresses Realized Price (AARP) has historically acted as a support level. However, since $ETH declined below it for the first time in February, the level…

Belgian-born crypto millionaire, Olivier Janssens, reportedly offered to pay Nevis residents $100 per month if the government approves his development plans for a tech-friendly libertarian community on the Caribbean island. Jannsens’ Destiny, a project aiming to buy and restructure about 2,400 acres of land on the Caribbean island, said it will begin paying residents $100 per month, “immediately once the final agreement with the government is approved,” according to an email seen by the Financial Times. The monthly $100 figure is an increase from the initial 30 East Caribbean dollars (US$11) announced by the project in November 2025. The offer…

A recent report published by the cryptocurrency analysis platform CryptoQuant points to a notable divergence in the Bitcoin market. According to the analysis, Bitcoin demand has contracted internally due to sales by both individual investors and large wallet holders, resulting in a significant mismatch between market sentiment and capital flows. The report noted that despite the Fear and Greed Index hovering in the 8-14 range, indicating “extreme fear,” net inflows of over $1 billion into spot Bitcoin ETFs occurred in March. However, the Coinbase Premium Index, reflecting US-based institutional demand, remained in negative territory, suggesting limited participation from US investors.…
