Ethereum's futures open interest has surged by more than 18% while ETH has risen for seven straight days since March 9 and is attempting an eighth green close. With ETH trading around $2,299 and open interest near $33.37 billion, leveraged bullish positioning and relatively expensive put options on Deribit highlight a divided market. Analysts note that holding above $2,036 could open the way toward $2,600–$2,800, while a failure may keep ETH range-bound between $1,750 and $2,200.

Dogecoin climbed about 2% to $0.096 over the last 24 hours, triggering $470,140 in liquidations equal to 4,897,291 DOGE from mostly short positions. After rebounding from a March 8 low of $0.086 and touching $0.101 on March 13, the meme coin is now consolidating in a narrow range around $0.094 to $0.097, with traders watching resistance near $0.12 and support around $0.09. Possible future moves include a push toward $0.16 on a decisive break above $0.12 or a slide toward $0.0799 if the $0.09 floor fails, while an upcoming payments feature on X is also being monitored as a potential catalyst.

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.

XRP’s trading volume dropped about 58% to $1.23 billion over the last 24 hours while its price climbed to $1.41. The token has been rising for four consecutive days since March 12, recovering from a March 8 low of $1.32 as volatility gauges tighten and daily on-chain transactions approach 3 million.

Shiba Inu futures recorded a 1,549.47% jump in netflows over the last 24 hours, with inflows of $14.25 million and outflows of $13.80 million, signaling traders are actively adjusting positions. During the same period, SHIB slipped 2.66% to $0.00000592 amid broad market liquidations, while on‑chain indicators and a neutral daily RSI suggest a potential short squeeze if buyers can push the price above the $0.00000627 resistance aligned with the daily 50‑day moving average.

Pi Network's Pi token, which uses a fork of the Stellar Consensus Protocol, dropped nearly 30% in the last 24 hours to around $0.193 after recently touching $0.2978 on March 13. The sell-off followed its listing on Kraken and is attributed to a long squeeze that erased gains from a rally that began in mid-February, with key technical support now seen near $0.174 and the 50-day moving average.

Bitcoin climbed from the March 9 low of $65,820 to a peak of $73,698 before slipping back toward $70,740, with price action remaining volatile in a broad range between $60,000 and $75,000. Veteran trader Peter Brandt has flagged a recurring channel formation on the BTC chart, recalling a previous pattern that preceded a drop to $60,000 and hinting that a fresh move in either direction could be developing. Brandt has also linked this structure to his earlier "Banana" channel concept, which referenced a long-term upside projection of $250,000 to $500,000 for Bitcoin.

RippleX Head of Engineering J. Ayo Ayo Akinyele has called on XRP Ledger validators and node operators to upgrade their rippled servers to version 3.1.2, following an earlier emergency v3.1.1 release. The new version addresses a rare edge case that can cause outages on public-facing nodes and helps prevent amendment blocking, while operators are also asked to trust a rotated GPG signing key introduced on Feb. 18 for future upgrades.
