Bitcoin Sell-Off Intensifies With Realized Losses Of $57 Million Per Hour – Details

bitcoinist.com - сб, 03/01/2025 - 14:30

The Bitcoin (BTC) market has been highly volatile in the last week and under a strong bearish influence. In this period, Bitcoin has crashed by over 15% falling as low as $80,000. Interestingly, blockchain analytics firm Glassnode has provided an in-depth analysis of investors’ behavior amidst this price decline highlighting the cohort with the largest realized losses.

BTC 1-Day To 1-Week Holders Lead Market Liquidation Pressure

On Friday, February 28, Bitcoin dipped below $80,000 reaching a price level last seen in November 2024. In response, the BTC market recorded $685 million in realized losses in addition to the initial $2.16 billion between February 25-27. In a recent X post, Glassnode analysts dived into the market sell-off on Friday, indicating that this recent capitulation is primarily concentrated among short-term holders (STH) who are realizing losses at a much higher rate than long-term holders.

From Glassnode’s report, the most affected cohort of STH has been new market entrants over the past week as indicated in the following data: 1-day to 1-week holders with $238.8 million in losses,1-week to 1-month holders ($187.6 million), 1-month to 3-month holders ($132.4 million) and 24-hour buyers ($104.9 million). However, it’s worth noting that holders from the past 3-6 months also experienced a significant spike in realized losses. This group recorded $ 12.7 million in realized losses on Friday, representing a 95.4% gain from the previous day.

Looking further, Glassnode’s report also realized the price dip on Friday also pushed the Bitcoin loss realization average rate to $57.1 million per hour.  The realization speed per cohort of the STH – who account for the majority of the market losses is as follows: 1-day to 1-week holders with $19.9 million/hour, 1-week to 1-month holders ($13.9 million/hour), 1-month to 3-month holders ($14.2 million/hour) and 24-hour buyers ($8.04 million/hour).

As expected, the 1-day to 1-week cohort is the dominant force in driving liquidity pressure with a loss realization rate almost double the next largest group.

Bitcoin Long-Term Holders Stay Resolute

According to more data from  Glassnode’s report, Bitcoin long-term holders from the last 6-12 months have shown minimal, negligible loss realization despite a widespread market capitulation.

This development indicates that the longer-term investors are largely unbothered by the recent sell-off and price correction with strong confidence for a market rebound. At press time, Bitcoin trades at $85,200 following some price recovery on Friday. However, its weekly losses remain at 11.34% indicating the current bearish move in the market.

Meme Coins Get a Green Light: SEC Confirms They’re Collectibles, Not Securities

bitcoinist.com - сб, 03/01/2025 - 14:04

Meme coins are not securities. 

That’s the official word from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). 

Instead of treating them like stocks or investment contracts, the SEC sees meme coins as collectibles—more like Beanie Babies than financial assets. And that’s a game-changer for the crypto space.

For years, meme coins have lived under the shadow of uncertainty. Regulators have been poking around, trying to decide if they fall under securities laws. Now, with this latest decision, meme coin enthusiasts can breathe a little easier. 

And with the Meme Index ($MEMEX) making it easier to invest in the meme coin market, there’s a new way for investors to capitalize on this booming sector. 

Why This SEC Decision Matters

Under former SEC Chair Gary Gensler, the commission had a reputation for going after anything that smelled like unregistered security. 

That included crypto projects of all shapes and sizes. With this ruling, the meme coin industry dodges a major regulatory bullet. This means meme coins—like Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, and new crypto players—can thrive without the SEC constantly looking over their shoulders.

For investors, this brings some much-needed clarity. They don’t have to worry about their favorite meme tokens suddenly getting delisted or tangled in a legal battle. 

Let’s be real—meme coins were never really about securities in the first place. People buy them for fun, speculation, and sometimes, because a dog or frog on the internet made them laugh.

Meme Coins: The Beanie Babies of Crypto?

The SEC’s comparison to Beanie Babies is oddly fitting. 

In the late ‘90s, people collected and traded Beanie Babies like they were gold. Prices shot up, with rare ones selling for thousands of dollars. But at no point did the U.S. government decide they were securities.

Meme coins work in a similar way. Their value often comes from community hype, internet culture, and sheer randomness. Some become wildly valuable, while others fade into obscurity. It’s all part of the game. 

Unlike traditional investments, meme coins aren’t backed by earnings reports or company profits. They’re driven by memes, FOMO, and a good dose of “why not?” 

The SEC finally recognizing this is a big deal for the industry.

The First Meme Index: Enter $MEMEX

With meme coins getting a green light from regulators, the market is ripe for new opportunities. That’s where Meme Index ($MEMEX) comes in. 

It’s designed as a simple yet effective way for investors to gain exposure to multiple meme coins at once, rather than betting on a single token. 

Just like how a stock index tracks a group of stocks to give investors broader market exposure, Meme Index operates as a crypto-native version of that concept, bundling together different meme coins into one tradable asset. 

This approach allows investors to minimize risk while still participating in the volatile and often wildly unpredictable world of meme coins. 

Instead of having to research and track individual tokens—many of which experience massive price swings—investors can hold $MEMEX and gain exposure to a curated selection of trending and potentially high-growth meme coins. 

This removes the need to make individual picks while ensuring investors are still part of the hype cycles that drive meme coins to explosive valuations. 

What $MEMEX Does and How It Works

Meme Index ($MEMEX) offers investors a structured way to gain exposure to the meme coin market without the need to track or select individual tokens. 

Rather than making separate investments in multiple meme coins, holding $MEMEX allows investors to benefit from a diversified portfolio of trending meme assets. 

Currently, one $MEMEX token is valued at approximately $0.0166883, reflecting the latest pricing

The project has already gained significant traction, raising $3.8M during its presale phase. This strong investor interest suggests confidence in the concept of a meme coin index as a viable investment strategy.

By simplifying access to multiple meme coins, Meme Index provides a way to engage with the speculative nature of the meme coin space in a more diversified and strategic manner. 

Instead of attempting to predict which individual meme coins will go viral, investors can gain exposure to a broad selection of them through $MEMEX, reducing the risks associated with betting on single assets. 

A New Era for Meme Coins?

The SEC’s ruling removes a huge regulatory risk from the equation. Meme coins can now thrive without fear of sudden crackdowns. 

With Meme Index ($MEMEX) making it easier to invest in the meme coin market, the space is set for even more growth.

Whether you see meme coins as the next big thing or just a fun way to speculate, one thing is clear—they’re here to stay. And now, they’ve got the SEC’s unofficial blessing. 

Remember that this is not financial advice—always do your own research (DYOR) before investing in any cryptocurrency.

TRUMP Meme Coin In Hot Water As Democrats Push Presidential Crypto Ban

bitcoinist.com - сб, 03/01/2025 - 13:00

A new bill is making its way through the US Congress, in a bid to stop politicians from launching their own cryptocurrency coins. This move comes after many investors lost money big-time on the TRUMP meme coin, which is associated with US President Donald Trump. The coin’s wild ride has made people wonder if politicians should be allowed to create and promote these kinds of financial assets.

The Rise And Fall Of TRUMP Coin

Last month, the TRUMP meme coin and another coin linked to Melania Trump became instant sensations. Both quickly hit huge milestones, boasting multi-billion-dollar valuations just hours after they debuted.

But the excitement didn’t last. The price of TRUMP coin took a nosedive. It fell more than 80% from its highest point. Many people who bought the coin ended up losing a lot of money. This situation has caught the attention of regulators and finance officials.

HOUSE DEMOCRATS INTRODUCE MEME ACT TO BAN OFFICIALS FROM PROMOTING CRYPTO MEME COINS

– In response to President Donald Trump’s recent launch of a meme coin, House Democrats have introduced the Modern Emoluments and Malfeasance Enforcement (MEME) Act.

A New Law Called The MEME Act

California Rep. Sam Liccardo is leading the charge with a new bill. It’s called the MEME Act, which stands for Modern Emoluments and Malfeasance Enforcement Act. The idea is simple: stop the President, Vice President, members of Congress, high-ranking government officials, and their families from endorsing, issuing, or sponsoring financial assets, including meme coins.

Liccardo believes that the Trump family took advantage of their political position to make money off these cryptocurrencies. He argues that they used their influence for personal gain. The goal of this law is to keep federal officials from profiting from digital assets. This includes things like stocks or cryptocurrencies. This is important because it could create conflicts of interest or open the door to corruption.

Worries About Trading And Foreign Influence

Liccardo is concerned about the possibility of insider trading. Also, he is worried about foreign influence over US politics. Cryptocurrencies have a global reach, which makes them vulnerable. The MEME Act is designed to prevent federal officials from using their positions to profit from these assets, thus keeping their interests aligned with the public good.

For example, if a politician knows about upcoming regulations that could affect the price of a cryptocurrency, they could use that information to make a profit before the public knows. This is unfair and erodes trust in government.

What’s Next For The Bill?

The MEME Act faces a tough road ahead. Republicans currently control both the House and the Senate. This means it will be difficult for the bill to gain support. However, Liccardo is determined to keep pushing the bill forward. He hopes to get wider support if Democrats gain a majority in the future.

Financial Conditions Signal Bitcoin’s Next Move — Is A Rebound Incoming?

bitcoinist.com - сб, 03/01/2025 - 11:30

Head of Macro Research at Global Market Investor Julien Bittel has provided an interesting insight into the Bitcoin market following a major price loss in the past week. In a bold move, the financial analyst has backed the premier cryptocurrency to soon pull off a rebound linking the recent price fall to broader macroeconomic conditions.

Why Bitcoin’s Drop Below $80,000 Could Have Marked The End Of The Sell-Off

Over the past week, the BTC market registered a significant bearish price action, with prices falling from over $96,000 to below $80,000. In an X post on February 28, Bittel attributed this price fall to the tightening of financial conditions in Q4 2024, which has drained liquidity from the market, making it harder for speculative assets like Bitcoin to maintain upward momentum.

When market liquidity reduces, economic surprises slow leading to concerns about a potential recession and ultimately inducing market uncertainty and a risk-off behavior. However, Bittel expects these investors’ sentiment to reverse in March making a case for a Bitcoin rebound.

The analyst notes that market conditions over the past two weeks have been easing rapidly as indicated by a weakening dollar, decreasing bond yields, and falling oil prices. These macroeconomic developments suggest that liquidity is returning to the financial system signaling a potential rebound in market sentiment.

Notably, with Bitcon’s recent dip below $80,000, Julien Bittel states the effects of tightening liquidity conditions have been fully reflected. And while a potential price fall is still possible, sentiment indicators signal little room for further downside. For example, Bitcoin’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) has recently touched 23 representing its most oversold level since August 2023. Such market conditions back the notion of incoming price rebound.

The BTC Market: A Contrarian Opportunity?

In the final remarks of an intriguing analysis, Bittel has urged investors against being too comfortably bearish but rather pushed for a greedy mindset amidst the widespread market fear.

Notably, blockchain analytics firm Santiment notes that the “market crowd” tends to go wrong on predictions i.e. when traders are forecasting Bitcoin to go lower, prices go up and vice versa based on historical data. Therefore, the current Bitcoin market may present a unique opportunity for accumulation despite general expectations of a sustained price dip.

At the time of writing, Bitcoin trades at $84,750 following some price gains on Friday amidst a positive US inflation report. With a market cap of $1.68 trillion, the premier cryptocurrency remains the largest digital asset with a staggering market dominance of 60%.

Ethereum Faces Bearish Pressure As Sentiment Hits 12-Month Low – Can ETH Avoid Dropping Below $2,000?

bitcoinist.com - сб, 03/01/2025 - 10:00

Ethereum (ETH) hit a new yearly low of $2,076 earlier today, further weakening sentiment around the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap. If Ethereum falls below $2,000, it could trigger additional losses for investors.

Ethereum Sentiment At A 12-Month Low

According to data from CoinGecko, Ethereum has dropped roughly 28% over the past 30 days and is currently trading around the $2,200 level. The cryptocurrency has shed more than $230 billion in market capitalization since December 2024.

Crypto investment manager 0xLouisT took to X to share a chart indicating that sentiment around Ethereum is at its lowest point in a year. A drop below $2,000 could intensify bearish sentiment, putting further pressure on ETH.

Similarly, Bitcoin (BTC) trader and investor Jason Pizzino remarked that ETH could be “in more trouble than expected” if it closes below the $2,000 to $2,100 range. He added:

Remember, February was when most influencers were beating the drum for $ETH and told us to “follow the money” because Trump et al., were buying millions of dollars. That always sounds fishy to me.

A close below $2,000 would complete a bearish double-top pattern on the monthly chart, potentially sending ETH into the low $1,000 range. For context, the last time Ethereum traded in the $1,500 range was in October 2023.

Fellow crypto analyst Morin highlighted ETH’s weekly demand level between $1,900 and $2,100, with the weekly supply zone positioned around $2,600. The analyst expects the digital asset to fluctuate within this range “in the near future.”

Some Positive Signs For ETH

While the short-term outlook for ETH appears uncertain, some indicators suggest that investors have not completely lost confidence in the asset. For instance, using on-chain data, crypto analyst Ali Martinez emphasized that large holders – also known as crypto whales – have bought more than 110,000 ETH in the last 72 hours. 

Similarly, Leon Waidmann, Head of Research at Onchain Foundation, pointed out that despite ETH’s price decline, exchange reserves continue to drop. Waidmann noted that falling exchange reserves indicate investor confidence, as fewer ETH tokens are being moved to exchanges for potential selling.

However, concerns remain for Ethereum, particularly as the network’s staking percentage has seen a sharp decline from its peak in November 2024. On the other hand, crypto analyst Ted Pillows remains bullish, predicting that ETH is still on track to surpass $10,000. At press time, ETH is trading at $2,222, down 3.6% in the past 24 hours.
