It’s a total bloodbath in the Ethereum universe. While ETH sinks into the red, its ETFs aren’t faring much better either. In short, investors are abandoning ship, and the flows are evaporating. More than thirteen days of uninterrupted bleeding, hundreds of millions flowing elsewhere, while BTC puffs out its chest. The next chapter? It’s in the strange behavior of these ETFs that it unfolds. The Ethereum ETFs, benefitting from several inflows of 2.6 billion dollars in December 2024 , are currently on a dry spell. For 13 consecutive days, they have not seen a single net influx of capital. We’re talking about a hemorrhage of 370 million dollars going up in smoke. Worse still, it’s the two market giants, iShares and Grayscale, that are bleeding the most: 146 and 106 million in net outflows, respectively. Meanwhile, staking is rising, staked ETH reaches 33.8 million. Ironic? Not so much. Ethereum ETFs currently do not allow access to the famous staking rewards. Without yield, ETH loses its appeal. “A staking yield is a significant part of the performance in this sector,” recognized Robert Mitchnick of BlackRock . As the SEC is considering proposals to allow staking in ETFs, interest is collapsing. Fidelity even recorded zero dollars in inflows for its ETH ETF on March 22. A first that stings. Key takeaways: But then, are these outflows merely temporary? Or is Ethereum truly becoming the forgotten altcoin of the market? While ETH moans in its corner, BTC is celebrating. The numbers are telling: 274 million dollars flowed into BTC ETFs in a single day, on March 17. And it’s not over: six consecutive days of positive net inflows, 83 million on March 21 according to Kapoor Kshitiz. Meanwhile, Ethereum continues to sink, with 18.6 million dollars flowing out on the same day, according to @rovercrc. The trend is clear: crypto investors are regaining confidence in Bitcoin, not in Ethereum. Why? Because Bitcoin reassures. It is perceived as more stable, better understood, easier to regulate. While Ethereum gets bogged down in debates over the efficiency of its blockchain and staking mechanisms, BTC moves forward like a bulldozer. The BTC ETFs have become the massive capital conquest weapon. Over $35 billion in inflows since their launch. The ETH ones, on the other hand, struggle to gain momentum. Does this mark a turning point? Do investors no longer have faith in the Ethereum project? Or are they waiting for a real signal to return? Alongside the brutal numbers, a timid optimism seems to cling to the corners of charts. The technical indicators on Ethereum display a glimmer of hope: a breakout to the upside was observed around $1,955, with a return to $1,985, and bullish signals on the RSI and MACD. But let’s be clear: this small jump does not compensate for the hemorrhage of confidence. Even with $2.45 billion accumulated since July 2024, ETH ETFs remain in the shadow of the BTC giant. Investors seem to be hanging on the next jolt of the crypto market. Traders, meanwhile, scrutinize support at $1,960 and resistance at $1,990 as seers would scrutinize coffee grounds. The near future will depend on the answers to these questions: While the technical signals are encouraging, the underlying situation remains the same: capital is still shunning Ethereum. 2025, the year when the Ethereum ETF could surpass Bitcoin , is it just wishful thinking? Moral of the story: it’s not 7 weeks of continuous net inflows since Christmas that will settle this issue.

Last year, some dreamed of perverting Bitcoin with flashy NFTs, magical layers 2, and convoluted re-staking. Purists were outraged, arguing that BTC should be left alone. Should we have waited? Clearly yes: today, these crypto whims are almost extinguished. While the fires of innovation crackled, the hype has subsided. But what remains of these promises now vanished? In the crypto universe, certain concepts have a habit of dancing and then taking their bow. Such is the case of Ordinals, these Bitcoin NFTs that made wallets vibrate. In 2024, their volume reached 1.4 billion dollars. In 2025? Barely 280 million. A free fall of 80%. The same fate for Bitcoin’s layers 2: at the beginning of 2024, more than 80 projects tried to charm investors and the media. Six months later, the soufflé has collapsed. “It was overestimated from the start,” confides Charlie Hu, co-founder of Bitlayer. Also lagging behind: re-staking, this clumsy innovation now reduced to two or three survivors. Muneeb Ali, founder of Stacks, drives the nail home : “the honeymoon is over.” Crypto entrepreneurs are starting to speak the truth. Too late? Has the crypto market become allergic to its own excesses? However, amidst the debris of hype, one idea seems to hold its ground: Bitcoin DeFi. Some envision it as a more solid alternative, less flashy. Dominik Harz (Build on Bitcoin) states it bluntly : The Bitcoin DeFi has not yet taken off. To date, 0.3% of Bitcoin’s market cap fuels DeFi uses, compared to 30% for Ethereum. A chasm of x100. But the foundations are there. Thanks to technologies like zkBTC, transactions are becoming ultra-fast, low-cost, and programmable. The future? Perhaps in the fusion between the Bitcoin blockchain and the agility of DeFi. Some, like @SamaAlbert90, already speak of a “new financial era“. The prediction of the BitcoinOS CEO? A DeFi ecosystem on Bitcoin valued at $10 billion if Ethereum stumbles. And why not? If layers 2 become performance-serving architectural tools, investments could follow. Is the flagship crypto ready to become a base for sustainable financial innovations? The cold war continues between Bitcoin and Ethereum, each camp holding onto its ambitions. Ethereum is preparing its “Hoodi” update , crucial for its scalability. If it fails, Bitcoin could scoop the pot. It would be a turning point. With its new technical layers (zkRollups, EVM compatible), Bitcoin offers attractive solutions. Maxwell Sanchez (Hemi Labs) reminds us that copying and pasting Ethereum’s tech is not enough: “It must adapt to the very core of Bitcoin.” Translation: there’s no need to force a square into a round hole. The Bitcoin network must grow in its own way. On Ethereum’s side, the pressure is high. Every major update is a risky promise. The complexity of “Hoodi” could create more problems than solutions. Meanwhile, Bitcoin is refining its vision, developing its layer 2 protocols, and waiting for its rival’s misstep. Who will win the duel of the titans in the crypto market? The one who convinces developers, users, and investors over the long term. And you, who are you betting on? Despite their apparent discredit, Bitcoin’s layers 2 could very well explode . A recent report from the Spartan Group discusses their explosive potential in the medium term… to be continued.

On March 21, Bitcoin spot ETFs saw a total net inflow of $83.0919 million, marking six consecutive days of net inflows. In contrast, Ethereum spot ETFs experienced a total net outflow of $18.6309 million, continuing a 13-day streak of net outflows.

Crypto is in the midst of what Mintology CEO Zach Burks calls “crime season,” as hacks and illicit activity drive down investor confidence. So far in 2025, over $2.2 billion in crypto has been stolen, including a $1.5 billion heist by North Korea’s Lazarus Group . In a note to crypto.news, Burks warned that the rise in crime is damaging markets and posing a national security risk. “The increased perception of crime in crypto has caused the meme coin market to crash by 56% since December,” Burks said. “At the same time, Bitcoin has fallen from $106,000 to $83,000, and we could see it drop to $72,000 in the coming weeks.” He advises investors, especially those holding meme coins, to brace for continued volatility over the next six weeks. Burks argues that traditional regulatory bodies like the SEC and FCA are ill-equipped to handle crypto crime. The agencies “are inefficient in retrieving crypto funds and only seek to create more bureaucracy, taking crypto away from what it was created to achieve. ,” he wrote. Instead, he believes the industry needs a decentralized, community-driven approach. We need to build a network of community-led tacticians like Zach XBT , who can tackle illicit transactions executed by mass operations to bring trust back to crypto and prevent capital from being lost forever,” Burks said. Burks contends that the issue goes beyond safeguarding individual investors — it’s a matter of national security. Relying on politicians and bureaucracy won’t solve the problem. According to Burks, what is required are crypto pragmatists ready to advocate for a level playing field.

Analysis XRP Price Prediction & Analysis : Poised for Breakout as Whales Aggressively Accumulate XRP price jumped 7-8% amid increased network activity, whale accumulation, and the conclusion of Ripple's four-year SEC lawsuit. Oliver DaleBy Oliver DaleMarch 21, 20254 Mins Read TLDR XRP price jumped 7-8% in 24 hours following increased network activity Whale investors holding 1M+ tokens accumulated 2.82 billion more XRP (6.5% increase) in past two months SEC dropped its appeal against Ripple, effectively ending the long-running lawsuit XRP active addresses in March reached levels six times higher than January/February Technical analysis suggests potential for 75% gains with price targets around $4.35 The price of XRP has seen a notable recovery in recent weeks, climbing approximately 30% over the past two weeks and jumping about 8% in the last 24 hours alone. This price movement comes amid increased blockchain activity and the conclusion of Ripple’s lengthy legal battle with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). XRP Price On-chain data from analytics firm Santiment shows that XRP whales – investors holding at least one million tokens (worth approximately $2.5 million) – have been steadily accumulating coins. These large investors added 2.82 billion XRP to their holdings in the last two months alone. This represents a 6.5% increase in their collective holdings. The trend of whale accumulation has been ongoing for about a year, with these investors now owning a total of 46.4 billion XRP tokens. Active addresses on the XRP network have also seen a boost during March. Current activity levels are approximately six times higher than those observed in January and February of this year. This increased activity stands in contrast to many other blockchain networks. Many competitors have seen a decline in user engagement over recent months. The surge in active addresses may indicate growing retail interest in the cryptocurrency. More users are participating in transactions on the network compared to previous months. $XRP
