Solana Price Prediction: SOL Liquidations Surge as Key Support Tests
Solana’s derivatives market saw a major cleanup of leveraged long positions after a liquidation wave cleared crowded exposure below key price levels. At the same time, the SOL/BTC pair is testing a rising trendline again after a failed breakout attempt, placing the next structural move in focus. SOL Long Liquidations Largely Cleared After Sharp Flush Most leveraged long positions in Solana (SOL) were liquidated after price moved through a dense liquidation zone, according to a heatmap shared by analyst CW on X. The chart places SOL near $82.8 and shows that the biggest long liquidation clusters sat below that level, mainly between $80 and $83. Solana Liquidation Heatmap. Source: CoinAnk / X The data combines positions from Binance, Bybit, OKX, Aster, Hyperliquid, and Lighter. The tallest liquidation bars appear around $80 to $81, showing where leveraged longs were concentrated before the drop. Once SOL entered that range, forced liquidations hit quickly and removed much of that exposure. Now, only a small amount of long liquidity remains near the current price. That suggests the market has already cleared most crowded bullish bets on the downside. At the same time, the chart shows a larger band of possible short liquidations above the market, stretching toward the $90 to $97 area. The heatmap does not predict direction. However, it shows that downside long pressure has mostly been exhausted, while larger liquidation pools now sit higher. That leaves SOL in a market structure with less long leverage below and more potential short pressure above. SOL/BTC Retests Rising Trendline After Failed Breakout Attempt The SOL/BTC pair returned to its rising trendline after an earlier breakout attempt failed, according to chart analysis shared by gnarleyquinn on X. The daily Coinbase chart shows Solana moving inside a tightening structure where a rising support line meets a horizontal resistance band. SOL/BTC Ascending Trend Structure. Source: X Earlier, the pair attempted to break above the resistance area marked by the horizontal red line. However, the move did not hold, and price moved back into the pattern. After the rejection, SOL/BTC declined toward the upward trendline that has supported the structure since mid February. The rising trendline continues to connect a series of higher lows, indicating that buyers have defended that level during each pullback. As price returned to this support, the chart suggests the pair is testing whether that structure can hold again before another move develops. The pattern now resembles a symmetrical compression between rising support and horizontal resistance. In such formations, price action often tightens before a directional move occurs. The chart highlights the resistance zone above as the level that previously stopped the breakout attempt. According to the analyst, the market may attempt another push toward that resistance area if the upward trendline continues to hold. The structure shows price consolidating between these two boundaries while volatility gradually compresses.

Bitcoin Price Prediction: BTC Holds Key Support as Correlation With Stocks Grows
NYDIG argued that Bitcoin’s latest move alongside U.S. software stocks does not prove the asset has turned into a software equity proxy. In its March 6 weekly research note, the firm said Bitcoin’s rising 90 day correlations are not limited to software shares. Instead, they also extend to the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100, which points to broader macro and liquidity conditions rather than a direct tie to one sector. Bitcoin Correlation Rise Looks Broader Than Software Stocks The chart shared by NYDIG shows Bitcoin’s 90 day rolling correlation with the S&P North American Software Index, S&P 500, Nasdaq 100, and NYSE Semiconductor Index mostly moving in a similar range from June 2025 into early February 2026. Around late August, all four correlations dropped sharply, then recovered through the fourth quarter. By early February, Bitcoin’s correlation with software stocks stood near the top of the group, but the broader equity links also remained elevated. Source: Bloomberg, NYDIG. The visual suggests Bitcoin moved with risk assets more broadly, not with software names alone. BTC 90 Day Correlation With Equity Indices. Source: Bloomberg,NYD The firm said Bitcoin’s correlation with software equities increased after the early October all time high, but so did its correlation with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100. At the same time, NYDIG noted that Bitcoin’s link to semiconductor stocks weakened in 2026 even as correlations with broader equities and software moved higher. According to the note, that pattern weakens the claim that Bitcoin is trading on software specific themes such as AI or quantum risk alone. NYDIG said the cleaner explanation is that Bitcoin is trading like a high beta, liquidity sensitive growth asset in the current macro environment. The note added that Bitcoin is not behaving like a macro hedge, inflation hedge, or gold substitute right now. Even so, NYDIG also argued that equities still explain only part of Bitcoin’s moves. It said a 0.5 correlation implies an R squared near 0.25, meaning about one quarter of price movement would be explained by a single equity factor, while the rest still comes from Bitcoin specific drivers such as fund flows, network activity, positioning, and policy developments. So, the main takeaway is narrower than the recent social media claim. Bitcoin has been moving more closely with equities, and the chart supports that. However, NYDIG’s data and commentary suggest the relationship is broad based across major stock benchmarks, not proof that Bitcoin has become a software stock in disguise. Bitcoin Tests Two Year High Volume Trading Zone Meanwhile, the chart shared by Daan Crypto Trades shows Bitcoin trading inside the largest volume area formed over the past two years. The volume profile on the right highlights where the most trading activity occurred. The thickest cluster sits around the current level marked by the horizontal green line. Bitcoin Two Year Volume Profile Support. Source: Daan Crypto Trades on X This zone stands out because more Bitcoin changed hands here than at any other price during the period shown. When price returns to such areas, markets often slow because many previous positions exist there. As a result, the region can act as a balance point where buyers and sellers interact more actively. The broader chart structure shows Bitcoin rising to higher levels before moving back toward this heavy volume node. After the previous rally, price declined and returned to the area where the market previously spent the most time trading. That historical activity now makes the level an important structural zone on the chart. The volume profile also shows thinner trading areas above the current range. Those sections represent price zones where less historical volume accumulated. When price moves into these areas, the path can become smoother because fewer previous positions exist to slow movement. According to DaanCryptoTrades, the current zone may allow Bitcoin to stabilize and form a range. The recent candles near the high volume node show smaller movements, which often appear when markets pause after a strong trend. However, the chart also highlights a nearby resistance level. If Bitcoin moves above the upper boundary of the volume cluster near the $72,000 area and holds it, the structure shows lighter historical volume toward the low $80,000 range. That configuration means price could move more freely once it exits the current high volume zone.

Royal Government of Bhutan Moves 175 BTC as Bitcoin Price Reclaims $71,000
The Royal Government of Bhutan has transferred 175 BTC, according to Arkham. The transaction had a value of nearly $11.85 million as Bitcoin traded above $69,000. The move came from one of the government’s primary holding wallets, which has been active since the start of the year. This was Bhutan’s first transfer since last month, when the government moved about $6.8 million in Bitcoin. With the latest sale, total Bitcoin outflows for the year reached more than $42 million. Arkham stated that “Bhutan periodically sells portions of its Bitcoin in clips of $5 million to $10 million,” which matches the pace seen across recent months. Last year, the government carried out much larger transfers. In July, it moved more than $60 million in several days. Holdings were reduced from more than 11,000 BTC as Bitcoin prices later shifted from last year’s highs. Bhutan’s Bitcoin Holdings and Management Bhutan’s current Bitcoin holdings stand near 5,400 BTC. These reserves are valued around $372 million to $374 million, depending on the market price . Druk Holding & Investments manages the assets. The fund oversees several national enterprises and acts as the principal financial arm of the state. Bhutan gathered much of its position through mining powered by hydroelectric energy. This allowed the country to build digital reserves with renewable resources. Mining continues to support the national treasury while transfers help manage liquidity needs. Bhutan remains among the largest sovereign holders of Bitcoin. It currently ranks seventh based on publicly viewed wallets. Market Reaction to Political Comments and Analyst Views Bitcoin traded near $68,500 during Bhutan’s transfer. Markets saw fresh movement after a comment from former U.S. President Donald Trump regarding conflict developments in Iran. He said, “War is very much complete in Iran,” which drew quick responses across commodities and crypto markets. Oil prices fell soon after his statement, while Bitcoin moved higher. Analyst Michaël van de Poppe noted the change in market tone. He said that Bitcoin moving back above $71,000 showed early progress as higher lows continued to form. Source: X Concurrently, according to Glassnode data, the trading activity in the spot market remained softer, yet several indicators suggested a more stable environment. As per analysts at Glassnode, the futures open interest increased as some traders added leverage. In addition, the funding rates have turned sharply negative, which points to stronger demand for short positions. Moreover, the BTC perpetual contract flows showed rising buy-side activity, which is a precursor of a bullish recovery towards $70,000.

Top Ethereum Price Predictions as Analyst Claims ETH Is Back in the Discount Zone
Despite the turbulence over the past few weeks caused by geopolitical tension and other factors, Ethereum (ETH) managed to stabilize above $2,000. Multiple industry participants expect the asset to post substantial gains in the near future, with some suggesting that the current levels provide a great buying opportunity. New ATH in the Making? The cryptocurrency market, which has been on a rollercoaster lately, experienced a significant revival today (March 10) after US President Donald Trump claimed the war with Iran “is very complete, pretty much.” ETH followed the green wave and is currently trading around $2,070, up 3% on a daily basis. According to the popular market observer who goes by the moniker Merlijn The Trader on X, the second-largest cryptocurrency has returned to “the discount zone.” He believes the ongoing structure mirrors that of 2023, which was followed by a bull run. In his view, holding the crucial $2,000 mark could lead to a major rally to almost $10,000, whereas losing it would mean that “the discount zone extends lower.” For his part, X user James argued that ETH’s performance is similar to NVIDIA “before it melted faces.” That said, he expects the digital asset to follow the footsteps of the AI giant and explode to a new all-time high in the coming years. Satoshi Flipper is also bullish, albeit making a more modest prediction. The trader thinks that a potential resolution to the military conflict between the USA (supported by Israel) and Iran could drive ETH to $2,500. Certain on-chain indicators support the optimistic scenario. Some X users, for instance, revealed that whales continue to accumulate ETH: a development that reduces the number of tokens available on the open market and could trigger a rally (should demand remain constant or head north). The actions of large investors are also closely monitored by smaller players, who may follow suit and inject fresh capital into the ecosystem. It is worth noting that Tom Lee’s BitMine is a notable whale that plays a main role in the buying spree. Most recently, the company purchased almost 61,000 ETH for approximately $123 million, thus increasing its total holdings to 4,535,563 coins. Another Downtrend on the Horizon? Contrary to the bullish predictions observed above, some analysts and traders expect ETH to head south soon. X user Crypto Tony said they await a potential rejection at around $2,060 “to short this down again.” For his part, Ted predicted that ETH could soar to $2,400 if reclaiming the $2,150 level. After that, though, he sees “a decent chance” that the asset would dump toward new lows.

Pundit Says Buy XRP Before This Big Announcement
Cryptocurrency influencer Amonyx has encouraged market participants to consider accumulating XRP before the anticipated announcement of the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025, commonly known as the CLARITY Act. The comment reflects a growing belief among some analysts and market observers that the proposed legislation could significantly change the regulatory position of several digital assets in the United States. The CLARITY Act has become one of the most closely monitored legislative developments in the digital asset sector as of March 2026. The bill is currently under consideration in the Senate Banking Committee. It’s also widely seen as an attempt to establish a definitive division of authority between the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. This proposed regulatory separation is expected to determine whether specific digital assets are categorized as securities or commodities under U.S. law. Amonyx’s message centers on the possibility that the legislation could formally classify XRP as a digital commodity, ending years of regulatory uncertainty surrounding the asset’s status. Buy $XRP before the CLARITY Act is announced. — Amonyx (@amonyx) March 7, 2026 Legislative Deadlines and Political Tensions The timing of the influencer’s comment coincides with ongoing legislative negotiations in Washington. A White House drafting deadline for a compromise version of the CLARITY Act passed on March 1, 2026. Market observers are now focused on a potential decision window in April, when lawmakers could advance the legislation or delay it further. The debate has intensified due to disagreements between traditional financial institutions and segments of the digital asset industry. A major point of contention is about stablecoin reward mechanisms. Banking groups have reportedly expressed concerns about these provisions, arguing they could create competitive disadvantages for traditional financial institutions. Members of the digital asset sector, along with Donald Trump, the President of the United States, have criticized banking industry lobbying efforts and accused major banks of attempting to delay the legislation. According to this perspective, financial institutions seek to preserve their current position within the payment and settlement ecosystem. Why XRP Is Viewed as a Key Beneficiary Supporters of the asset believe that XRP could benefit significantly if the CLARITY Act becomes law . The legislation would allow U.S. banks to hold and transact with the asset without concerns about securities regulations. This could open the door for institutions such as BNY Mellon and Citigroup, which have already explored digital asset services, to integrate XRP into settlement operations. Technology infrastructure linked to Ripple is also frequently mentioned in this context. The company has introduced institutional platforms, including Ripple Prime and Ripple Treasury, designed to support large-scale liquidity and payment services. These systems could enable On-Demand Liquidity transactions that rely on XRP as a bridge asset. In addition, Ripple has continued efforts to expand its institutional presence through initiatives connected to its dollar-backed stablecoin, RLUSD, through partnerships with financial firms, including Aviva Investors. We are on X, follow us to connect with us :- @TimesTabloid1 — TimesTabloid (@TimesTabloid1) June 15, 2025 Market Expectations if the Bill Passes Within trading communities, Amonyx’s message reflects a broader strategy often described as positioning ahead of a major regulatory development. Some analysts believe the passage of the CLARITY Act could significantly increase institutional participation once regulatory clarity is established. Several projections suggest that XRP could move from its current range near $1.40 toward higher levels if the legislation passes. Analysts frequently set targets between $5 and $10 under a moderate scenario, with more optimistic projections if additional catalysts such as spot XRP exchange-traded funds gain further traction. However, some analysts caution that delays to the legislation, particularly if negotiations extend toward the 2026 midterm elections, could reduce momentum and potentially lead to short-term price pressure.
