DeFi’s total volume stands at $3.67 billion, at 10.88 percent of the total market 24-hour volume. In case of stablecoins, the overall volume stands at $29.46 billion, at 87.35 percent of the total 24-hour market volume.

BTC dominance, at the time of writing, stands at 46.23 percent.

Over the past seven days, Bitcoin achieved a high of $29,136.80 (on March 30) and a low of $26,716.33 (March 27), showcasing a relatively stable movement. 

Ethereum, on the other hand, saw a high of $1,840.68 (March 31) and a low of $1,698.55 (March 27), showing a stable movement as well.

Crypto Events To Note

Despite Binance’s KYC rumours and eventual US CFTC lawsuit last week, Bitcoin and other leading cryptocurrencies managed to remain stable in the following days, beating industry expectations of a slump. This just goes on to show how incredibly unpredictable the market can truly be. 

However, the collapse of Silvergate’s SEN instant transfer network as well as Signature’s Signet network in March can still show its claws, affecting the liquidity risk of overall cryptos. 

Even though BTC managed to reach the $29,000 mark last week, investors are still advised to research well and invest cautiously, given chances of a fallout effect of the banks’ closures. 

A couple of good news, however, can reinstill investors’ confidence. Firstly, low-cost Argentine airlines, Flybondi, announced the issuing of tickets as non-fungible tokens (NFTs), renewing interest in the sector once again. Furthermore, UNICEF is exploring the development of a DAO to help enable equitable distribution of power and communication in global digital public goods market. 

The US government is set to release its latest employment and productivity data this week. Since US market movements usually have a direct impact on crypto prices, investors are advised to be on the lookout. 

What Crypto Traders Are Saying About Current Market Scenario

Mudrex co-founder and CEO Edul Patel told ABP Live, “Despite Bitcoin’s brief climb above the $28,500 resistance level during the weekend, it was unable to sustain this position and has since undergone a correction. Presently, it is trading below the $28,000 level, with the next major support being situated at the $27,500 level. If this level is breached, it could trigger a fresh decline towards $27,000. On the other hand, the resistance level currently stands at $28,100. With fresh productivity and employment data in the US to be released, there may be some volatility in the market this week.”

WazirX Vice President Rajagopal Menon offered his take, “Bitcoin briefly dropped below $26,677 before rebounding and reaching above $29,000 after the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) sued Binance for allegedly offering futures and derivatives products to US residents without registration. Despite this, Bitcoin traded above $27,000 for most of the week, rising 1.3 percent during the week and 26.1 percent during March. Over 74 percent of all Bitcoin supply was in profit as of March 29, suggesting that investors may be looking to sell some of their holdings to take profits.”
