Bitcoin recently failed to clear the $74,000 resistance and is now trading near $70,000 with limited bullish momentum. Analyst Ali Martinez highlighted on March 14 that the MVRV Z-Score, currently around 0.469 and historically important near -0.262, suggests the market could see further downside before a durable local bottom forms. Bitcoin is priced around $71,480, up over 1% in 24 hours and more than 6% over the past week.

On-chain metrics indicate that Ethereum is moving into an undervalued zone, with CryptoQuant analyst Burak Kesmeci highlighting an MVRV ratio of 0.9 as a sign that ETH is becoming relatively cheap. However, Kesmeci also points to the Realized Price Bands, suggesting Ethereum could still fall over 40% toward the lower band around $1,152 before the bear phase concludes. At the same time, prediction market data shows rising odds that ETH could lose its position as the second-largest crypto asset by market cap, even as its price trades near $2,090 with a valuation above $253.1 billion.

On Friday, March 13, Bitcoin again met resistance near $74,000 after trading in a consolidation band for about two weeks. On-chain URPD data shared by analyst Ali Martinez indicates BTC has entered a low-resistance zone, with few notable hurdles until roughly $82,045 and key support around $66,898. With Bitcoin hovering near $70,820 and up slightly over the last day and more than 3% in a week, a move to the $82,000 area would represent an advance of over 17% from the current level.

Over the past week, Bitcoin once again failed to break through the $74,000 resistance, even as broader financial markets remained unsettled. On March 13, on-chain data cited by analyst Axel Adler Jr showed the 30‑day average Bitcoin Fear & Greed Index sliding to 10%, a pessimism level last seen during the COVID-19 and Terra (LUNA) crashes. While BTC trades around $71,262 with a modest daily gain, historical patterns suggest such extreme fear has previously coincided with or preceded market bottoms.

On Saturday, March 7, Alphractal founder and CEO Joao Wedson highlighted $63,700 as a vital on-chain support level for Bitcoin, using a Fibonacci-adjusted Market Mean Price model. He warned that a drop below this zone could open a path to $57,000, $52,400, or even $48,700, implying nearly a 30% slide from the current price. Bitcoin is trading around $67,330, roughly 50% under its all-time high of about $126,080.

After a turbulent week, Bitcoin traded in a relatively narrow range over the weekend while its broader structure still resembles a bear market. An on-chain analyst highlighted that rising long-term holder active supply and a prior drop from about $95,000 to nearly $60,000 indicate the BTC price may remain vulnerable, despite short-term support around $60,000–$62,000 and a current level near $67,628.

In early March 2026, Bitcoin rallied to about $74,000 amid heightened geopolitical tensions before dropping below the key $70,000 level. Analyst Ali Martinez, using liquidation heatmap data, highlights around $54,000 as a critical zone where more than $70 million in BTC long positions could be wiped out, potentially triggering a long squeeze. With BTC now near $67,830 and down over 4% in 24 hours, traders are watching whether this realized-price region will act as support over the coming months.

On February 27, on-chain data highlighted a withdrawal of about 44 million XRP from whale wallets on Binance, following an earlier 30 million XRP outflow on February 6. The moves, flagged via the Multi Exchanges Daily Whales Netflow metric, point to sustained negative netflows, which can imply reduced selling pressure and potential accumulation. With XRP trading around $1.37 after a 2.9% daily decline, analysts note that persistent demand alongside falling exchange supply could support a bullish price trajectory.

According to CryptoOnchain via CryptoQuant QuickTake, TRC-20 USDT balances on Binance climbed from about $385 million on December 24 to roughly $5.2 billion by February 21. The analyst said the jump coincided with Bitcoin and Ethereum testing key supports, implying liquidity rotation and positioning. Bitcoin was around $67,971 at the time of writing.
