Crypto.com Reverses 2021 Token Burn, Re-Mints 70B CRO

Crypto.com has ignited controversy within its community after proposing to re-mint 70 billion CRO tokens. This decision marks the reversal of a 2021 token burn intended to reduce the circulating supply permanently.
The move, which passed at the last minute with a decisive vote, has left many CRO holders feeling betrayed.
The outcome remained uncertain for most of the proposal’s voting period, which ran from March 2 to March 16. While the “yes” votes narrowly led, the proposal did not pass the 33.4% quorum of eligible votes.
That changed on Sunday at 14:00 UTC when a sudden influx of 3.35 billion CRO tokens tipped the balance. This secured the necessary quorum and significantly boosted the “yes” votes. Notably, voter turnout was 70.58%, exceeding the required threshold. The final tally was 62.18% in favor, 17.61% against, and 20.11% abstaining.

To put it in perspective, only 11.86% of validators voted “yes,” with only two of its validators (Starship and Falcon Heavy) supporting the proposal initially.
By the end of the vote, three more Crypto.com-controlled validators, Electron, Antares, and Minotaur IV, joined them. Meanwhile, two independent validators, Cosmostation and Polkachu.com, also backed the proposal.
Notwithstanding, their votes had minimal impact on the outcome as Crypto.com controls between 70-80% of the total voting power. This means the company tipped the scales through its dominance over the network.
Community members were quick to express frustration, accusing Crypto.com of manipulating the process. Based on the claims, it appears the Crypto.com exchange leveraged its significant control over the network’s validators. One large token holder voiced their disappointment on Telegram.
“They [Crypto.com] pushed their votes almost at the last minute. And now they created a precedent that other projects could follow,” Unchained reported, citing a community member on Telegram.
With the vote secured, Crypto.com is set to upgrade the Cronos blockchain, re-minting 70 billion CRO tokens. The newly minted supply will vest over five years and serve various purposes, including the potential creation of a CRO ETF (exchange-traded fund).
Notably, the original 70 billion CRO burned in 2021 will remain out of circulation. Nevertheless, the timing and nature of this decision have fueled skepticism within the community, especially given Crypto.com’s prior assurances that the 2021 burn was final.
A day after the controversial re-minting passed, Crypto.com introduced another proposal to burn 50 million CRO tokens. This constitutes about 0.07% of the freshly minted supply and has been met with widespread derision.
“It is a spit in all CRO holders’ faces. I mean, how dare you re-mint 70 billion tokens and on the same day start a proposal for burning 50 million tokens,” crypto journalist Laura Shin revealed, citing one validator who opposed the re-minting proposal on Telegram.
The comment reflects the general sentiment among the Crypto.com community. Many feel that this irreparably damaged their trust in the platform.
Amidst an outraged community and eroded trust in Crypto.com, the fallout from this decision could have long-term repercussions for the company and the broader Cronos ecosystem. Meanwhile, voting on the latest burn proposal continues.

Amidst this backlash, Cronos’ CRO price is down by almost 5%. BeInCrypto data shows CRO was trading for $0.08 as of this writing.
Crypto.com did not immediately respond to BeInCrypto’s request for comment.

3 Crypto Smart Money Wallets Are Dumping Fast This March

Smart Money wallets have been aggressively offloading TRUMP, BNKR, and PWEASE in the last seven days, raising red flags for these trending tokens. TRUMP has faced the heaviest pressure, with over $380,000 in net outflows, as its price remains stuck in a sharp downtrend.
BNKR, despite posting strong weekly gains, has also seen large traders liquidating their positions, signaling potential profit-taking. Meanwhile, PWEASE is experiencing similar bearish flows as larger wallets continue to trim exposure despite the recent buzz around the meme coin.
TRUMP
TRUMP has been under significant selling pressure, trading below $18 for the past 30 days, with its price declining by nearly 43% over that period.
This steep correction has coincided with notable smart money activity, as key wallets have been heavily exiting their positions. In the last seven days alone, smart money wallets sold $382,660 worth of TRUMP while only buying $1,240, resulting in a sharp net outflow of $381,420.
This imbalance suggests that larger, more informed investors are losing confidence in TRUMP’s short-term prospects, contributing to the downward momentum.

If this corrective trend persists, TRUMP could fall further and retest its next key support level, $9.54. Failure to hold this level may expose the asset to deeper losses.
However, if TRUMP manages to reverse its current bearish trend and regain bullish momentum, it could attempt to challenge resistance at $12.51.
A successful breakout above this level may open the door for a move towards $13.88. If buying pressure strengthens further, TRUMP could rally back up to $17.75, reclaiming levels closer to where it was trading before the recent downturn.
BankrCoin (BNKR)
BNKR has surged by 19% over the past week, positioning itself as one of the top-performing AI coins and one of the most talked-about assets on the Base chain.
This recent rally has drawn significant attention, helping BNKR stand out in a competitive market. However, despite the price increase, smart money wallets have shown mixed behavior—while they purchased $75,700 worth of BNKR in the last seven days, they also offloaded $213,730, resulting in a net outflow of $138,000.
This suggests that although BNKR is trending, larger investors may be capitalizing on the recent rally to secure profits.

If this selling pressure persists, BNKR could lose its recent momentum and slip below key support levels at $0.00019 or even $0.00018, marking its lowest levels since mid-February.
On the other hand, if BNKR manages to reignite the bullish sentiment that fueled last week’s gains, it could retest resistance at $0.000225.
A breakout above this level could pave the way for a further move toward $0.000282, signaling a strong continuation of its upward trend.
PWEASE
PWEASE, a Solana meme coin satirizing US Vice President JD Vance, has been drawing attention amid volatile market conditions.
Over the past seven days, smart money wallets have shown a bearish stance. They purchased $166,720 worth of PWEASE but sold $291,000 in the same period, resulting in a net outflow of $124,320.
This suggests that while the token has gained some traction, larger investors are currently leaning towards reducing their exposure, adding selling pressure to the coin.

If this corrective trend continues, PWEASE could move lower and test the key support at $0.0125. If that level fails to hold, a deeper decline toward $0.0059 may follow.
However, should PWEASE manage to attract renewed buying interest and reverse the downtrend, it could push up to challenge resistance at $0.0295.
A breakout above this level could open the door for further upside toward $0.040, signaling a potential shift back to bullish momentum for the meme coin.

Bitcoin ETF Issuers Purchase Over $40 Million in BTC

As the Bitcoin ETF market is seeing inflows again, the issuers are purchasing BTC in huge volumes. Fidelity and ARK Invest, two of the leading issuers, acquired more than $40 million in Bitcoin since yesterday.
Rumors also suggested that BlackRock, the largest ETF issuer, made similar purchases, yet these remain unverified. Overall, the fresh acquisitions from asset managers could contribute to a much-needed bullish narrative for the market.
Will Bitcoin ETFs Influence a New Bullish Cycle?
After weeks of consistent ETF outflows, the market is starting to pick up again. On Monday, US spot Bitcoin ETFs saw $274 million in net inflow—the largest daily inflow since February 28.
Meanwhile, blockchain analytics platform Arkham claimed that BlackRock is also making large BTC purchases.
“ARKHAM ALERT: BlackRock is buying $40 Million BTC. BlackRock is buying. Fidelity is buying. Ark is buying,” the firm stated via social media.
However, despite these claims, the on-chain data does not match up. Fidelity and ARK Investments both acquired large amounts of BTC today, posting inflow transactions of $41.16 million.
Both ETF issuers had other Bitcoin inflows, but BlackRock’s on-chain data actually shows a net decrease in BTC holdings.

These other leading ETF issuers have indeed been purchasing Bitcoin, as independent verification can clearly show. ETF analyst Shaun Edmondson claimed that they bought 665 BTC last Friday and 3,261 BTC on Monday.
Bitcoin’s price has been highly volatile, which might be adding to confusion regarding the ETF market. Last week, the issuer’s collective holdings fell below Satoshi’s wallet, a milestone they passed three months ago.
However, it looks like institutional investors are regaining the confidence to enter the market, as most Bitcoin ETFs have turned green this week.

Overall, institutional investors have been a key influence on Bitcoin’s market movement for the past year. If net inflow remains positive in the ETF market, it could help create a much-needed bullish narrative in the face of today’s bearish sentiment.

Top 3 Base Meme Coins to Watch Closely This Week

Base meme coins are heating up this week, with DOGINME, DRB, and CLIZA standing out as key tokens to watch. Doginme is leading the charge with explosive gains and growing hype after being added to Coinbase’s listing roadmap.
DRB is attracting attention as the first Grok-backed token but is still battling near all-time lows despite solid volume. Meanwhile, CLIZA is making waves as a launchpad-focused meme coin, building momentum as it competes with other platforms in the Base ecosystem.
doginme
Doginme is one of the most trending Base meme coins, with a market cap of over $84 million and a recent addition to Coinbase’s listing roadmap.

The coin has surged 511% in the last six days, with daily volume hitting $3.2 million as Base gains more traction. Doginme is quickly becoming a standout performer among Base meme coins.
If the uptrend continues, DOGINME could break above $0.00139, with room to push toward $0.0015 and $0.0020. However, if momentum fades, the price could pull back to $0.00097, $0.0007, or even $0.00043.
DebtReliefBot (DRB)
Debt Relief Bot (DRB) is the first token created by Grok in partnership with Bankr, an AI-driven Base project focused on companions. The token was uniquely launched directly through a thread on the X social platform, where Grok suggested both the name and ticker in collaboration with Bankr, making it one of the hottest Base meme coins in the last few days.

Currently, DRB has a market cap of $5.2 million and generates $2.5 million in daily trading volume. Despite this activity, DRB is trading near its all-time lows, showing signs of bearish pressure.
If the trend reverses, DRB could move up to test resistance levels at $0.000082 and $0.00018. A strong breakout could even push the price higher toward $0.000249, marking a significant recovery from its current lows.
CLIZA
CLIZA is a token launchpad specializing in AI agentic crypto, positioning itself as a competitor to platforms like Pumpfun and Clanker.
It aims to stand out by offering features such as Smart Metadata, vested team supply, and a built-in buyback and burn mechanism to enhance token value and sustainability.

The project currently boasts a market cap of $3.1 million, with daily trading volume reaching $2.3 million and a growing community of nearly 60,000 holders.
If CLIZA loses support at $0.00339, the price could drop further toward $0.00071.
However, if bullish momentum returns, the token could challenge resistance at $0.0056, with a potential push toward $0.0071 if buying pressure accelerates and crypto AI agents recover their upward momentum.
