Less Than 5% Away From Historic $100K

Bitcoin (BTC) is approaching a $2 trillion market cap, currently at $1.89 trillion, after rising 38% in the past month and breaking new all-time highs in November. Expectations remain high as BTC price nears the $100,000 milestone, a level it is less than 5% away from reaching.
While the ADX suggests the trend is weakening, the NUPL indicates that BTC is far from the “Euphoria” zone, reducing the likelihood of strong corrections.
BTC’s Trend Is Losing Steam
Bitcoin ADX, currently at 17.4, reflects a weakening trend compared to its value of 26 just two days ago. The ADX, or Average Directional Index, measures the strength of a trend on a scale of 0 to 100, without indicating its direction. Values above 25 signify a strong trend, while values below 20 indicate weak or no trend.

BTC current ADX suggests that although it is still in an uptrend, the momentum driving it has significantly weakened, signaling potential consolidation or a slowdown in the bullish movement.
Bitcoin NUPL Is Still Far From Euphoria
BTC NUPL, or Net Unrealized Profit/Loss, currently stands at 0.61, placing it in the “Belief — Denial” zone since October 14. NUPL evaluates the ratio of unrealized profits to losses, providing insight into market sentiment.
This level indicates growing bullish confidence as holders remain in profit, reflecting optimism about further price increases.

While at 0.61, BTC’s NUPL is still below the 0.7 threshold, which signals entry into the “Euphoria” zone. Historically, crossing into “Euphoria” often leads to strong corrections as profit-taking accelerates.
This current position allows room for BTC price growth before reaching risky levels, suggesting that the uptrend may continue without immediate overextension.
BTC Price Prediction: Is $100,000 Possible In November?
Following a slight correction in recent days, Bitcoin price is now less than 5% away from reaching the historic milestone of $100,000. The ADX suggests that the current trend is losing strength, which could delay BTC’s approach to this key level.
However, the NUPL indicates that the market is still far from the “Euphoria” zone, suggesting that strong corrections are unlikely at this stage.

If the uptrend regains momentum, BTC price could breach $100,000 and potentially test $105,000 in the near term. Conversely, if a downtrend emerges, the price may fall to $88,000 before making another attempt to push higher.

BeInCrypto US Morning Briefing: Standard Chartered and Bitcoin

Welcome to the US Morning Crypto Briefing—your essential rundown of the most important developments in crypto for the day ahead.
Grab a coffee to see how Standard Chartered sees early signs of institutional investors turning to Bitcoin as a hedge against equity market volatility, just as traders gear up for a potentially volatile week driven by tariff news. At the same time, Coinbase wraps up its worst quarter since the FTX collapse, and U.S. regulators inch closer to unified stablecoin legislation.
Standard Chartered Sees Signs of Bitcoin Starting to Be Used as Hedge Against Market Volatility
Geoff Kendrick, Head of Digital Assets Research at Standard Chartered, sees signs that institutional traders are starting to use Bitcoin as a hedge against equity market volatility.
In a recent exclusive interview with BeInCrypto, Kendrick highlighted that this trend is already underway, with investors seeking alternatives to traditional instruments. “This is happening already,” Kendrick stated. “Investors used to use FX, specifically AUD, for this purpose due to its highly liquid and positive correlation to stocks, but now I think Bitcoin is being used because it is also highly liquid and trades 24/7.”
Additionally, in an investor note from late March, Kendrick expanded on Bitcoin’s evolving role in investment portfolios, suggesting that over time, Bitcoin may serve multiple purposes—both as a hedge against traditional financial market fluctuations and as a proxy for tech stocks.
He pointed out signs that markets could anticipating a less severe tariff announcement from the U.S. on April 2. “Given this has been the worst quarter for the Nasdaq since Q2 2022, there should be a degree of portfolio rebalancing (buying) that needs to take place,” Kendrick added.
As of April 1, 2025, Bitcoin has shown resilience amid broader market uncertainties. The cryptocurrency is up approximately 3.32%, trading at $84,282. This uptick comes alongside an overall increase in the global cryptocurrency market capitalization. In contrast, U.S. stock futures, including Dow Futures, S&P 500 Futures, and Nasdaq Futures, are all trending lower in pre-market trading, reflecting investor caution ahead of the anticipated tariff announcements.
Bitcoin Options Heat Up Before Trump’s “Liberation Day”
FalconXCrypto Global Co-Head of Markets, Joshua Lim, noted that in anticipation of Wednesday’s Trump-tariff “Liberation Day,” crypto funds are actively purchasing Bitcoin options at two key strike prices: $75,000 on the downside to hedge against potential losses and $90,000 on the upside to capitalize on a price surge.
Lim highlighted that the options market is pricing in a potential 4% move in Bitcoin’s price during the event. “The implied event move embedded in Bitcoin options is around 4% for the 2 April event,” he told BeInCrypto.
He also pointed out that traders are likely to keep buying put options in the short term as a protective measure, maintaining a high options cost premium. “We believe the front of the options curve will hold its premium as traders continue to hedge their portfolios or replace spot positions with limited-loss option positions,” Lim added.
Additionally, he noted a 4-point increase in the VIX, signaling that investors expect heightened volatility in the coming days and are turning to options to manage risk or capitalize on price swings. “US equities are also showing a bid in options, with the front-month VIX up 4 points to 22v from last week,” he said.
Crypto Stocks Slide: Coinbase Suffers Worst Quarter Since FTX Collapse
Coinbase is closing out its roughest quarter since the FTX collapse, with its stock tumbling over 30% since January. While it dipped nearly 1% in early U.S. pre-market trading on Monday, the stock managed to claw back losses and is now up around 1%.
Other crypto-linked companies are also feeling the pressure. Galaxy Digital Holdings has dropped over 8% in pre-market trading, while mining firms Riot Platforms and Core Scientific are only barely staying afloat, each gaining less than 0.5%.
Meanwhile, CoreWeave, which pivoted from Bitcoin mining to AI infrastructure, is struggling after a disappointing IPO. Initially aiming for a $2.7 billion raise, the company had to settle for $1.5 billion, slashing its offer price from the $47–55 range to $40 per share. Since going public last Friday, its shares are down 6.8%, with a 7.3% drop recorded in the last 24 hours.
Byte-Sized Alpha
– Today’s JOLTS report, a key gauge of U.S. job openings, could sway Bitcoin—strong data may boost the dollar and hurt crypto, while a sharp decline could fuel rate-cut hopes and lift risk assets.
– Bitcoin is off to its worst quarterly start since 2018, dropping nearly 12% in Q1 2025—but growing whale accumulation, falling exchange supply, and signs of consolidation hint at a potential rebound ahead.
– Crypto scams are on the rise, with fake Gemini bankruptcy emails and a Coinbase employee breach fueling phishing attacks
– OKX has appointed former NYDFS Superintendent Linda Lacewell as Chief Legal Officer, a move aimed at bolstering its regulatory credibility as the exchange accelerates global expansion into regions like Europe and the UAE.
– A unified U.S. stablecoin regulation could soon become reality, as the STABLE and GENIUS Acts differ by only 20% and enjoy strong bipartisan support alongside SEC and CFTC involvement.
– A push for expanded crypto oversight is underway as incoming CFTC Chair Brian Quintenz meets with Senator Chuck Grassley to discuss regulating the crypto spot market.

SUI Price Stalls After Major $147 Million Token Unlock

SUI enters a critical phase today as a $147 million token unlock threatens to inject selling pressure into a market already testing key resistance levels. Despite a sharp rebound in momentum—evident in the RSI’s surge from oversold territory—SUI failed to break above the crucial 60 mark, signaling buyer hesitation.
The Ichimoku Cloud shows price action pressing against the cloud’s edge, but lacking the conviction needed for a clear breakout. With a possible golden cross forming on the EMA lines, bulls still have a chance—if they can overcome resistance at $2.50 and avoid being dragged down by post-unlock volatility.
SUI RSI Surged Since Yesterday But Failed To Break Above 60
SUI’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) has jumped sharply to 58.94, up from 29.38 just a day ago, reflecting a strong shift in short-term momentum.
The RSI is a momentum oscillator that measures the speed and magnitude of recent price changes. It typically ranges from 0 to 100. Readings below 30 suggest an asset may be oversold, while levels above 70 indicate it may be overbought.
The rapid rise in SUI’s RSI suggests buyers have stepped in aggressively after a period of heavy selling.

However, despite the impressive rebound, SUI’s RSI briefly approached but failed to break above the 60 threshold earlier today.
This level often acts as a short-term resistance during recovery phases, and the rejection may indicate lingering hesitation among buyers or profit-taking after the surge.
While the RSI nearing 60 is encouraging, a decisive move above it would be needed to confirm a breakout. For now, SUI appears to be in a recovery mode. However, the inability to push past 60 highlights that bulls are not fully in control just yet.
Ichimoku Cloud Shows Lack Of Strong Upward Momentum
SUI blockchain Ichimoku Cloud chart shows a potential breakout attempt, as the price has surged upward and is now hovering right at the edge of the Kumo (cloud).
This movement suggests bullish momentum is trying to build. However, the resistance provided by the thick, red cloud ahead could make it difficult for SUI to sustain the uptrend without stronger confirmation.
The Tenkan-sen (blue line) is starting to rise and has crossed above the Kijun-sen (red line), which is a bullish signal. However, the price still needs to clearly break and hold above the cloud to flip the overall trend from bearish to bullish.

For now, the cloud remains bearish and flat, indicating possible resistance and a lack of strong upward conviction.
The current position suggests that SUI is at a key decision point—either break through the cloud to initiate a trend reversal or get rejected and slip back into the previous downtrend range.
If buyers can sustain the pressure and push the price above the upper cloud boundary, it could trigger a stronger rally. But without increased volume and broader market support, the price risks getting stuck in consolidation or turning back downward.
Will SUI Rise Back To $2.80?
SUI’s EMA lines are tightening and showing signs of a potential golden cross. That happens when a short-term moving average crosses above a longer-term one—a classic bullish signal that often precedes upward momentum.
However, the price is currently grappling with a key resistance near the $2.50 level.
If bulls manage to break through this level, it could open the path for a move toward $2.83.

That said, downside risks remain, particularly with today’s $147 million token unlock, which could introduce significant selling pressure. If that selling materializes, SUI price could fall back to test the support at $2.23.
A breakdown below that level would likely shift momentum back in favor of bears. This would expose deeper supports at $2.11 and $1.96.

Circle Files for IPO

Leading stablecoin issuer Circle finally launched an IPO. It has been preparing for this launch for almost a year, and joins several other crypto firms that are interested in an IPO filing.
This gives Circle a number of opportunities, both to benefit financially and to better integrate with the financial infrastructure and regulatory apparatus.
Circle’s IPO Comes At Last
Circle, one of the world’s largest stablecoin issuers, just filed for an IPO. The firm has been planning this move for nearly a year, relocating to the United States to make the process easier. Since Trump won the most recent Presidential election, the firm’s chances of an IPO increased, and now it has finally pulled the trigger:
“For Circle, becoming a publicly traded corporation on the New York Stock Exchange is a continuation of our desire to operate with the greatest transparency and accountability possible. We are building what we believe to be critical infrastructure for the financial system, and we seek to work with leading companies and governments around the world in shaping and building this new internet financial system,” founder and CEO Jeremy Allaire claimed in the filing.
By launching this IPO, Circle has opened a few new doors for itself. Of course, it’s a substantial opportunity for revenue, but it’s also an important way to intensify the firm’s connections to the financial infrastructure. In this respect, it joins a number of other crypto firms that have sought their own IPO in the last month.
Circle’s IPO filing doesn’t list many concrete numbers, such as initial public offering price, number of available shares, proceeds to the selling stockholders, etc. However, this development is very recent. Further details will likely come to light as the sale progresses.
