Vancouver City Staff Rejects Bitcoin Treasury Idea Ahead of March 10 Council Vote

According to recent on-chain data, large investors in the XRP market seem to 
be adjusting their positions. Further analysis suggests that if XRP finds 
favorable alignment with the current conditions, it could be at the start of a 
larger upside rally. 44 Million XRP Leave Binance Late In February In a 
Quicktake post on CryptoQuant, market analyst Amr Taha shared that there have 
recently been major withdrawals of XRP tokens from Binance, the world&#8217;s 
largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume. This outflow trend is based 
on the Multi Exchanges Daily Whales Netflow metric. Related Reading: Bitcoin

For context, this metric monitors the daily net flows of XRP held by whale 
wallets across 15 major crypto exchanges (all of which Binance leads in 
trading volume). Positive readings from the metric indicate that XRP is moving 
into the exchanges; on the other hand, negative netflows signal an efflux of 
XRP from these exchanges. According to the analyst, there has been a 
significant increase in negative netflows from the Binance platform. This is 
also reflected in the chart shared below, where, as of February 27th, about 44 
million XRP tokens flowed out of Binance&#8217;s whale wallet addresses. 
Interestingly, this event was not a one-off in the month of February, as 
roughly 30 million XRP had left these same wallets on the 6th of the month. 
What This Means For XRP Price Increasing netflows on exchanges is often a 
tell-tale sign of investors’ intention to sell off their holdings or exchange 
their coins, thereby adding bearish pressure to the market. So, when whale 
netflows lean towards the negative, it means there is less bearish intent 
among this investor cohort. Also, when two withdrawals of this magnitude 
happen within the same month, it is a clear suggestion that these large market 
players might actually be accumulating XRP in equally large amounts. It could 
also be a sign that, rather than accumulation, these large holders are locking 
up their tokens for long-term storage. Based on historical precedent, events 
like this are often bound to have positive effects on the price of an asset. 
In the event that netflows are significantly large, the analyst points out 
that there is a corresponding reduction in available XRP supply. This means 
there would be less XRP in the market than is currently being demanded by 
buyers. Demand exceeding supply is a typical economic situation that drives an 
asset’s price to the upside. It then becomes clear that if current demand 
levels persist or increase, the altcoin&#8217;s price would likely follow an upward 
trajectory. At the time of writing, XRP is valued at approximately $1.37, 
reflecting a 2.9% decline in the past day. Related Reading: Analyst Shares

Stablecoin Market Tops $313 Billion as Sky’s USDS Leads Weekly Gains

Bitcoin is showing signs of weakening momentum as it struggles to regain 
higher ground, placing the market at a critical turning point. The $66,000 
level has now emerged as a key support zone that could determine the next 
major move. Holding above it may give bulls a chance to spark a recovery, 
while a decisive break below could open the door for a deeper decline. Bitcoin 
Struggles Below Blue Box Resistance As Buyers Stay Quiet Bitcoin continues to 
trade below the blue box resistance, signaling that the market has yet to 
regain strong bullish momentum. According to crypto analyst Kamile Uray, 
buyers failed to step in at the $69,407 level that had been closely monitored 
on the 4-hour timeframe. Although selling pressure pushed the price lower, the 
pace of the decline has started to slow in the current region. Related

The Next Move Uray explained that as long as Bitcoin remains above the $66,187 
level, the possibility of another attempt toward the blue box resistance 
remains on the table. A decisive breakout above the $69,407 resistance, 
especially with strong high-volume candles, could open the door for a much 
larger upward move. Based on the principle of equal waves, such a breakout 
scenario could propel Bitcoin toward the $100,000 mark. A daily close above 
$98,200 would also establish a new high peak in the context of the latest wave 
structure on the daily chart, increasing the chances of a sustained uptrend. 
However, caution may be required if the price approaches the $107,000–$109,000 
region, as a bearish Libra formation could develop within that zone. Failure 
to close above the previous peak could activate the pattern and trigger a 
renewed downward move. Meanwhile, the $66,187 level remains a key support to 
watch on the 4-hour chart. Holding above it would keep bullish expectations 
intact, while a close below it may lead to a retest of $62,433. If the decline 
deepens further and resistance levels continue to cap upward attempts, the 
next major support targets are $62,433, $55,230, and $47,256. BTC Loses 
$70,000 Support As Bearish Momentum Builds Crypto analyst Crypto Candy noted 
that Bitcoin was unable to maintain its position above the $70,000 level and 
eventually closed below it. Holding above that zone was previously highlighted 
as crucial for sustaining bullish momentum. Failure to defend the $70,000 mark 
suggests that sellers have regained control of the market. Related Reading:

The analyst further explained that bearish pressure may continue unless 
Bitcoin manages to reclaim and break above the $74,000 level. As long as the 
price remains below that threshold, momentum favors the downside, with a 
potential move toward the $61,000 region or even lower levels. Featured image
