Financial analyst Jake Claver argues that market cap is a weak gauge of a crypto asset's real readiness for financial infrastructure and proposes a six-factor "Liquidity Index" instead.

Pi coin has fallen about 10% in the past 24 hours to roughly $0.20 after briefly reaching $0.23 earlier in the week, as short‑term traders took profits following a more than 20% rally.

In the past 24 hours, Bitcoin slipped 1.18% to roughly $66,538, according to the article, amid a broader risk-off tone tied to Middle East tensions and liquidations. Macroeconomist Henrik Zeberg's March 2026 outlook projects a primary rally to $110–120K, with a 25% alternate path to $140,000–$150,000 driven by risk-on flows, spot ETF demand, and institutional participation.

Bitcoin and the broader crypto market fell over the past 24 hours, with total capitalization around $2.28 trillion and BTC near $66,200, down roughly 2–3%.

Bitcoin is retesting a major resistance band between $68,300 and around $69,800 on the daily chart, after previously being rejected there. The bullish structure remains intact as long as price holds above the nearby $66,194–$66,956 support, while a break below could open the way toward the $64,535–$62,592 zone. A decisive daily close above the $68,300–$69,867 area would indicate stronger upside momentum and raise the probability of a move to new local highs.
