Thursday, April 3, was a pretty rough day for the markets. Trade tariffs of an unprecedented scale sent shockwaves through equities, commodities and crypto markets. But even in the chaos, Bitcoin (BTC) — often dismissed by skeptics as too volatile — surprised everyone by holding its own. Even Peter Schiff, who has always been critical of cryptocurrencies, was surprised at how well it handled the market’s ups and downs. With a 5.7% drop, Bitcoin’s decline was similar to the NASDAQ’s losses and slightly better than the Russell 2000’s performance. It was not a huge win, but it was not a…

Blockchain analysts Raoul Pal and Jamie Coutts remain bullish on Bitcoin and crypto prices long-term, citing prevailing liquidity conditions, even as geopolitical and socioeconomic decisions, like the recent Trump tariffs, trigger short-term volatility. Pal Emphasizes Easing Liquidity, BTC Leadership In a recent podcast, Pal highlighted liquidity’s influence, noting digital assets like Bitcoin aligned with changing liquidity trends over the past three months. While acknowledging the impact of Trump’s tariff decisions on recent price action, Pal believes liquidity variations since late last year have played a more fundamental market role. Pal noted financial conditions are easing quickly, a development he thinks…
The broader DeFi sector is witnessing revenue decline where most of the platforms faced declines of over 50% in March. MakerDAO was the only good performer in March with an 11% revenue surge. The decentralized finance (DeFi) sector witnessed a massive revenue downturn in March 2025. Most of the major protocols across multiple blockchains reported over 50% decline in their revenues. Defi protocols generate their revenue from transaction fees, lending fees, and other service charges. The drop in revenues indicated a decline in on-chain activity, reduced trading volumes, and a decrease in user activity on DeFi platforms. Weak Revenues Hinting…

Over the past few hours, Bitcoin has begun to rapidly ascend, printing green candles on an hourly chart and running to the North. However, by now BTC has shown a massive red candle that erased all its today’s profits. Time to decouple, Mow says, but Bitcoin’s breakout reverses Over the past few hours, Bitcoin has logged a roughly 2.5% growth,…

The US Securities and Exchange Commission acknowledged Fidelity’s application for a spot Solana ETF today, which would trade on Cboe BZX Exchange. SOL dropped 12% in the past 24 hours amid broader market declines triggered by President Donald Trump’s announcement of new global tariffs.
