Trump Says ‘No Deal’ Without Iran Surrender as Oil Prices Jump and War Expands

Spot Bitcoin ETFs listed in the US recorded their steepest single-day outflow 
in nearly three weeks on Friday, with $349 million pulled from all 11 products 
combined, according to data from Farside. Related Reading: Stablecoin Market 
Breaks Records — USDC Controls 70% Of $1.8 Trillion Volume The withdrawals 
came as Bitcoin slid back toward $68,000 after briefly touching $74,000 
earlier in the week — a run-up that, based on on-chain data, appears to have 
been the trigger for a significant wave of selling by large holders. Big 
Holders Bought Low, Then Sold Fast Crypto analytics platform Santiment tracked 
the behavior of wallets holding between 10 and 10,000 Bitcoin — a group 
commonly referred to as whales — and found they had been building positions 
aggressively between Feb. 23 and March 3, when prices were stuck in the 
$62,900 to $69,600 range. Once Bitcoin crossed $74,000 on Wednesday, those 
same wallets began offloading. By Friday, roughly 66% of what they had 
accumulated over that 10-day window had been sold back into the market. 
Smaller investors moved in the opposite direction. Wallets holding less than 
0.01 Bitcoin — the retail end of the market — have been adding to their 
positions as prices fell. According to Santiment, that kind of divergence 
between large and small holders has historically pointed to more downside 
ahead. &#8220;When retail buys while whales sell, it typically signals that the 
correction is not yet over,&#8221; the platform said in a Friday report. Fear Gauge 
Drops To Its Lowest Reading In Weeks Bitcoin&#8217;s slide pushed the Crypto Fear &amp; 
Greed Index down six points to a score of 12 on Saturday, placing it deep in 
&#8220;Extreme Fear&#8221; territory. The index measures market sentiment across a range 
of factors including volatility, trading volume, and social media activity. 
Some analysts said that Bitcoin could still face another drop if buyers fail 
to defend the current price zone. A loss of support around the $67,000–$68,000 
range may trigger a move back toward recent lows to gather liquidity before 
any potential rebound. An Economist&#8217;s Case For A $60K Floor Not everyone sees 
a breakdown coming. Economist Timothy Peterson pointed to the Bitcoin Price to 
Metcalfe Value chart — a model that measures Bitcoin&#8217;s price against the 
estimated value of its network based on user activity — and said the $60,000 
level has held as a bottom in every prior cycle. &#8220;About 99.5% chance it stays 
above $60k,&#8221; Peterson wrote on X. Related Reading: Bitcoin’s Brief Rally Isn’t 
The End Of The Bear Market, Analysts Say Bitcoin had already tested that level 
once this cycle, falling to $60,000 on Feb. 6 during a broader pullback from 
an all-time high of $126,000 set in October. Since then, it has managed a 
partial recovery, though Friday&#8217;s ETF outflows and the continued whale selling 
suggest the market has not yet found stable footing. Featured image from
