Crypto Market Today: 28th March 2025
The financial markets experienced notable movements influenced by geopolitical developments and investor sentiment. Bitcoin (BTC) traded at approximately $86,838, marking a 0.94% decline from the previous close. The S&P 500 closed at 5,693.31, reflecting a 0.3% decrease from the previous day.
The downturn in major U.S. stock indices was primarily attributed to President Donald Trump’s announcement of a 25% tariff on imported automobiles, aiming to encourage domestic manufacturing. This policy shift led to significant declines in automotive stocks, with General Motors experiencing a notable drop.
Despite the broader market’s reaction to trade policy changes, Bitcoin’s price remained relatively stable, indicating resilience amid traditional market fluctuations.
In the cryptocurrency sector, XRP’s recent price surge has historically signaled the late stages of Bitcoin bull runs, suggesting potential market froth. Additionally, the market capitalization of tokenized gold reached a record $1.4 billion in March, reflecting increased investor interest in digital assets backed by physical commodities.
Decentralized exchange Hyperliquid faced significant challenges following the delisting of the Solana-based meme coin JELLYJELLY. A trader opened a several-million leveraged short position on JELLYJELLY, which became problematic as the token’s price surged. The trader may have intentionally triggered their own liquidation, forcing Hyperliquid to assume the short position, resulting in substantial unrealized losses. In response, Hyperliquid’s validators voted to delist JELLYJELLY perpetual futures to maintain the platform’s integrity. This incident has sparked discussions about risk management and the challenges of decentralized governance within the cryptocurrency community.

In the US, major stock indices saw declines, with the Nasdaq, Dow Jones, and S&P 500 falling by 1.7%, 0.6%, and 1.1%, respectively. The downturn was largely driven by escalating trade tensions, as uncertainty over US trade tariffs weighs on investor sentiment.

Crypto Market Today: 18th March 2025

Crypto Market Today: 17th March 2025
Bitcoin traded within a tight range over the weekend, fluctuating between $82,000 and just above $84,000, and is currently hovering around mid-$83K. The 200-day simple moving average at $84,000 remains a key resistance level, while immediate support stands at $80,000.

Crypto Market Today: 13th March 2025
Bitcoin experienced another volatile day, but unlike previous swings, it closed 1.9% higher over the past 24 hours. The price action saw BTC start above $82K, surge to $84K, dip below $81K, and recover to close around $84K. The gyrations were driven by a 4% rally as February’s US Consumer Price Index data came in lower than expected.
The S&P 500 index gained 0.49%, while the Nasdaq climbed 1.22%, both closing in positive territory. This also reignited speculation about potential Federal Reserve rate cuts, drawing increased demand from macro-sensitive investors.

Crypto Market Today: 12th March, 2025
The market experienced significant turbulence yesterday as Bitcoin (BTC) rebounded from a low of $78K to $83K, rising 7%. While this upward movement provided some relief from the sharp plunge below the critical $80K support level, the broader market sentiment remains cautious, with many investors awaiting further confirmation of a sustained recovery. Meanwhile, Ethereum (ETH) continued to struggle, unable to break past the psychologically important $2K level.
The market also reacted negatively to reports of Mt. Gox transferring about $930 million worth of Bitcoin to new wallets, raising concerns about potential selling pressure that could disrupt the fragile recovery. Adding to the market’s uncertainty, investors are closely monitoring the upcoming US inflation report as its implications for monetary policy and risk assets could heavily influence market dynamics.
On a positive note, Aptos (APT) demonstrated resilience, gaining nearly 10% before retesting previous support levels, showcasing its potential to defy broader market trends.
Furthermore, Coinbase announced its re-entry into the Indian market after halting operations in 2023. By successfully registering with FIU-India, the exchange aims to expand its services to cater to the rising demand for crypto in the region. The strategic move is expected to enhance liquidity and potentially boost trading volumes for prominent assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum in the near term.
Crypto Market Today: 10th March, 2025
Crypto traders saw another weekend of massive volatility driven by technical factors, not policy decisions.
BTC broke the crucial support of $85.5K to fall below the $80K level, eroding over $150 billion from the global crypto market cap.
Though the market recovered a bit, BTC must regain the mark above the trend line support, now above 86K USD—for this to be treated as a fakeout and sustain the upward climb.
Crypto Market Today: 7th March, 2025
In a historic move, US President Donald Trump signed executive orders to establish a strategic bitcoin reserve and a separate digital asset stockpile. The reserves will be capitalized with Bitcoin and other crypto assets seized in criminal and civil cases.
The US government is known to sell all of the bitcoin it had been capturing, and this move could provide a significant boost to the long-term price action of bitcoin. The US Secretaries of Treasury and Commerce can also build a further budget-neutral strategy to further increase Bitcoin holdings, according to the order.
The market reaction to this news was somewhat negative as investors were expecting the US to deploy fresh capital to Bitcoin, but for now, the US government will not buy fresh BTC.
While BTC and ETH fell by 5%, ADA plummeted by 10%. XRP however showed the most resilience and is still down only 1%.
Crypto Market Today: 6th March, 2025
After testing the lows at $81.5K, BTC has again breached the resistance at $90K and is now sitting at $91.5K, waiting for another leg-up towards its next resistance at $99K.
The overall crypto market mirrored Bitcoin’s positive momentum, with the global market capitalization rising by 4.8% to $3 trillion. Major altcoins also saw gains: Ethereum rose by 5.8% and is now testing the $2,390 mark. Solana rose by 4.5% to $148, while XRP climbed 2% to $2.51.
While Aave emerged as a top performer, the overall macro sentiment can still tank the markets. The tariff war looks set to escalate, with countries imposing countersanctions on the US and the US, in turn, looking to add more sanctions.
Crypto Market Today: 5th March, 2025
BTC has been highly volatile as US President Donald Trump’s much-awaited Crypto Summit on 7th March draws nearer. After reaching 95K USD on the weekend, BTC tested 81,500 USD in the subsequent days before sharply bouncing off again to 89K USD levels, which will be a crucial line of resistance.
While companies like Chainlink and Microstrategy are invited to the crypto summit in the White House, traders should expect a volatile week ahead for the crypto market.
In another significant development, the world’s largest altcoin Ether (ETH) came dangerously close to large DeFi liquidations at 1,929 USD before bouncing back above 2,100 USD.
Crypto Market Today: 4th March, 2025
All the gains BTC and other cryptos made on March 3 were wiped out entirely as BTC struggled to find support even at $82K—a straight fall from yesterday’s high of $95K, causing more than 1 billion dollars worth of liquidations as BTC, ETH, and other crypto fell sharply.
However, the selloff appears to be broad-based across asset classes. The Trump administration’s confirmation of trade tariffs on China and Mexico starting March 4 caused the S&P 500 to crash by more than 2% before it staged a mild recovery, closing 1.7% down.
Elsewhere, the US SEC continues to drop its lawsuits against crypto players, with Kraken and Yuga Labs recently added to the list.
Crypto Market Today: 3rd March, 2025
March 2 marked a significant milestone in the history of crypto as US President Donald Trump announced “moving forward” with creating a strategic US crypto reserve which includes SOL, XRP, and ADA. Soon after this post went live on social media platforms, a massive surge of inflow happened across crypto pairs, with close to $300 billion added in the crypto market overnight, that too on the weekend – a similar trend that we saw on TRUMP memecoin launch as well, which too was on a Saturday.
While ADA surged more than 60% on the news, SOL surged 20% and XRP surged close to 25% in the last 24 hours. However, close to two hours after Trump’s first post went live, he mentioned in a separate post that this strategic reserve will also have BTC and ETH at its heart –further fuelling the rally, with BTC up by 8% and ETH up by close to 10% in the last 24 hours, cooling off a bit in the Asian session.
Commenting on the announcement, renowned economist Peter Schiff, a known crypto basher, mentioned that even though BTC reserve makes sense, it is not wise to include the likes of XRP, SOL, and ADA in the list. This was the first time Peter Schiff has sounded bullish about Bitcoin.
Crypto Market Today: 28th February, 2025
Global crypto markets continue to decline. Bitcoin (BTC) has hit a new low, reaching below $80k for the first time since early November.
While the SEC has been softening its stance on crypto assets, its recent observation that meme coins are not securities did not cheer the crypto market.
For BTC, the next support line is around $73k, and if the global macro doesn’t change, this can happen much sooner than expected.
