2026-03-30 14:15 to 14:30 (UTC) saw a significant abnormal move in the Bitcoin spot market. The short-term return rate was -0.54%, the price ranged from 67249.9 to 67698.6 USDT, and the amplitude reached 0.66%. Overall, trading volume and depth remain at extremely low levels within the year, which has increased volatility. Market attention has risen, and investors’ risk-avoidance sentiment has warmed. The main drivers of this abnormal move are fragile liquidity and concentrated whale fund selling. Specifically, spot trading volume has fallen to its lowest level since November 2023, and the 1% market depth has broken below 0.5%, indicating a significant reduction in market liquidity and increased risk of further sharp declines.

If it falls below $1.30, the support levels are at $1.24 and $1.20. Whales continue to accumulate, showing long-term accumulation intent, but on-chain activity is declining, and market liquidity is insufficient.

Bitcoin faces a critical turning point in April 2026. In March, the price rose only slightly by 0.19%, and market momentum has weakened. Technically, it shows a “bear flag” pattern; during tests of the key trendline, it may initiate a new round of downside. Flows are split—ETF net inflows are weakening, and large whales continue to exert selling pressure. The key support level is $67,000; once that breaks, it will test lower levels. If it breaks above $75,900, it could reverse. Overall, Bitcoin still faces near-term pressure, and its April performance will influence subsequent market direction.

2026-03-30 00:15 to 00:30 (UTC), within the 15-minute window ETH’s price surged 1.21% quickly, rising from 1981.9 USDT to 2023.69 USDT, with a range of 2.11%. Market attention increased in tandem; during this period, the ETH/USDT trading volume rose by about 15% compared with the previous interval, the buy order ratio reached 62%, overall volatility intensified, and it attracted a large influx of capital into the spotlight. The primary driving force behind this unusual move is that ETF inflows hit a new high, while multiple institutions’ funds continued adding to their ETH holdings, causing the circulating supply to decrease significantly.
