PEPE is trading near $0.00000333–$0.00000334, with sellers capping price below resistance around $0.00000336–$0.00000338 while buyers defend support in the $0.00000327–$0.00000334 area. Analyst Pepe Whale highlights a resistance band at $0.0000048–$0.0000050, where a daily close above $0.0000050 could open a path toward $0.0000085–$0.0000120, while a loss of support near $0.0000038 may expose the token to downside toward $0.0000026.

By March 2026, a major dispute has emerged in the Bitcoin community over BIP-110, a proposal introduced in December 2025 to curb arbitrary data such as images and videos on-chain via a 12‑month soft fork. Blockstream CEO Adam Back and other Bitcoin veterans oppose the plan, warning it could freeze some UTXOs, threaten neutrality, and risk a chain split by activating with only 55% support instead of the traditional 95%.

Amid rising tensions around the Strait of Hormuz and oil above $100 per barrel, Bitcoin is trading in a tight band around $70,000–$71,500. Derivatives data show open interest has dropped from over $40 billion to $21.8 billion and funding has turned near neutral to slightly negative, indicating reduced leverage that could still be vulnerable if macro-driven liquidity shocks intensify.

Bitcoin has rebounded from the $60,000 area and is now trading around $71,000 to $72,000, approaching a key resistance band between $73,000 and $75,000. On the daily chart it remains below the 100-day and 200-day moving averages and inside a broader descending structure, while on-chain data indicates larger players are still more active than retail traders. The $60,000 to $62,000 zone continues to act as critical support, with the $75,000 to $80,000 region marking the main overhead barrier.

On a Saturday, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin submitted a proposal to merge the consensus-layer and execution-layer client software into a single backend codebase, aiming to make running Ethereum nodes simpler for users. He argued that operating personal infrastructure should be easy and accessible, and linked this effort to his May 2025 concept of partially stateless nodes that reduce storage demands by keeping only necessary blockchain data.

On 15 March 2026, researchers at the Cambridge Centre for Alternative Finance published an 11-year study stress-testing Bitcoin's resilience to physical internet disruptions. Their data shows the network can endure failures affecting up to 92% of global submarine cables, while real-world incidents typically knocked out fewer than 5% of nodes. The study instead highlights concentration in five major cloud providers and a potential exposure of 4‑7 million BTC to future quantum attacks as the more pressing vulnerabilities.

According to Shibburn data, the Shiba Inu burn rate climbed 63% in the last 24 hours as more than 4 million SHIB were removed from circulation, while total supply remains around 589.24 trillion tokens. SHIB is trading near $0.00000585 after pulling back from a March 13 high of $0.0000063, with short-term price direction seen as dependent on broader market sentiment and capital inflows.

Galaxy Research's Alex Thorn says the CLARITY Act must be placed on the full U.S. Senate agenda by early May to keep a realistic path to passage in 2026, warning that disputes over stablecoin yields and DeFi rules are slowing progress. Banking sector concerns about deposit flight, debates over regulatory turf and protections for blockchain developers, and falling Polymarket odds are adding to uncertainty for the U.S. digital asset market.
