Bitcoin and Ether, the two largest digital assets by market value, remain largely within their recent trading areas two days after $ 1.5 billion hacked bybit, one of the best cryptocurrency exchanges.
Eterual financing rates for both are positive, indicating a bias for long positions that benefit from price increases. Bitcoin options traded on Deribit show a bullish bias for call options across all time frames, while tied to ether shows a downward bias in March. However, bias for ether puts has been present since well before hacked.
Meanwhile, Volmex Finance’s 30-day Bitcoin Implicated Volatility Index has dropped to an annual 48.45%, the lowest since July, according to Kortplatform TradingView. Ether’s implied volatility has turned the smaller weekend increase from 67% to 70%.
The tranquility is a sign of market maturity, according to QCP Capital. “Price acting emphasizes the growing maturity of the crypto -vocalist since the FTX interruption in 2022, especially in the crypto credit market,” the trading company said. “Any facet of crypto – from repository and security solutions to corporate management and transparency – is strengthened with every previous crisis.”
Overall, the crypto community is reassured by Bybit’s ability to control over $ 6 billion in withdrawal after hacked. Plus, the exchange has filled the gap in its ETH reserves.
According to Mena Theodorou, a co-founder of Crypto Exchange Coinstash, all eyes will be on Solana’s sun, as Franklin Templeton, one of the world’s largest asset management companies, has submitted a Spot Sol Etf proposal to SEC. In addition, 11.2 million solar (2.3% of the total supply) from the FTX property is scheduled to be unlocked on March 1, which can breed market volatility. It has already increased volume in the SOL PUT settings on leave.
President Donald Trump’s decision to revise gold reserves in Fort Knox in Kentucky has turned interest in the crypto community. “While routine gold revisions are rare, the timing is noteworth , “Theodorou said in an E email.
In traditional markets, the yen continues to win a place against the US dollar and growth -sensitive raw material currencies such as the Australian dollar and requires caution from the risk company. Stay aware

Token Talk
By Francisco Rodrigues
- The deeds of the nearly 1.5 billion dollars hack of larger crypto exchange Bybit have apparently turned to popular Solana-based Token-Launchpad pump.Fun to try to launder the stolen funds.
- Pump.Fun attached a token called “Qinshinhuang (500000)” to the hacker (s) after a 60 sun transfer and removed the token from its front end to prevent this type of activity.
- Pump.Fun, meanwhile, could soon launch its own automated market manufacturer (AMM) in a blow to popular Solana-based decentralized raydium, which benefits from being the platform Graduating Pump.Fun-Tokens, which is traded with.
