Ethereum slipped under the $2,000 level on Friday, March 27, hitting a two-week low as broader risk-off pressure weighed on crypto markets. The move coincided with more than $110 million in ETH long liquidations and left ETH around $1,980, down nearly 3% over 24 hours and over 7% across seven days. Over the past week, US spot Ethereum ETFs also posted about $158 million in net outflows, extending a seven-day negative streak.

Ethereum moved back above $2,000 on March 28, trading around $2,024 after sliding to a March 27 low of $1,971. The rebound followed an all-time high futures Estimated Leverage Ratio of 0.99495738, a reading that coincided with elevated open interest relative to exchange reserves. Leverage later eased to about 0.976 as positions unwound, while development activity rankings still showed MetaMask mUSD and other Ethereum-based projects leading by GitHub commits.

Lido has proposed a one-time buyback of about 8.5% of LDO’s circulating supply, funded by 10,000 stETH from the Lido DAO Treasury. At $2,000–$2,100 per stETH, the allocation equals roughly $20–$21 million and would purchase around 70 million LDO if approved. The move comes as Lido argues LDO has lagged ETH sharply, while whale wallets have sold nearly 80 million LDO since the October crash.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) recorded an hourly "death cross" as an overnight sell-off triggered more than $441 million in liquidations across the crypto market. SHIB was last up 0.85% in 24 hours to $0.000005813, while CoinGlass data showed open interest rising 7.79% to $53.24 million and derivatives volume jumping 70% to $161.08 million.

XRP exchange reserves fell to 2,750,702,461 tokens as of Saturday, March 28, indicating fewer XRP held on trading platforms. XRP later turned slightly positive, up 0.23% to $1.33 at the time of writing, after declines the prior day. The report also notes XRP ETF flows showed little to no fresh institutional capital for most of March, alongside continued withdrawals.

Bittensor (TAO) stayed above the $300 psychological level even as Bitcoin and Ethereum saw selling pressure over the past week. On higher timeframes, a break above $302.4 last week kept the swing structure bullish, with potential upside targets cited at $450-$500. On the 4-hour chart, the $286-$305 pocket is highlighted as a possible dip-buy area, while a move below $261.1 would invalidate the bullish setup.

Bittensor’s TAO has surged from $144 to $375, but price action is now stalling near the $360–$380 resistance band as momentum begins to fade. A TD Sequential sell signal on the 3-day chart adds a bearish technical note after a 160% rally, even as narrative-driven optimism and “next Bitcoin of AI” claims intensify. Key levels highlighted include support around $300 and a deeper zone at $260–$280, while bulls would need a sustained break above $380 to regain control.

BNB fell sharply into the $610–$612 demand zone, a level some analysts frame as a potential "flush trap" that could precede a reversal. Key thresholds being watched include $620–$623 for a bullish reclaim and $631–$633 as the next resistance, while a clean break below $610–$612 could open more downside. CoinGecko data also shows BNB at about $83.2 billion in market cap versus XRP at roughly $81.9 billion, keeping the fourth-place race tight.
