Monetary liquidity improved. The Federal Reserve raised interest rates by 25 basis points in March as expected by the market, but the hawkish speech believes that it will not cut interest rates this year. Panic has gripped the U.S. stock market for weeks. Just a fortnight ago, markets were pricing in a 50 basis point hike as inflation and economic data remained strong. But the Fed created $300 billion in new liquidity last week to address the banking crisis after concerns intensified at small banks such as Silicon Valley Bank, and market interest rates forecast only one 25 basis point hike this year. BTC outperformed US stocks and perfectly responded to the turmoil in the global banking industry.

3.2 Futures Quotes

Futures funding rate: The rate is lower this week. The fee rate is 0.05-0.1%, and the long leverage is more, which is the short-term top of the market; the fee rate is -0.1-0%, and the short leverage is more, which is the short-term bottom of the market.
Futures long-short ratio: 0.8. Market sentiment is bearish. Retail investor sentiment is mostly a reverse indicator, below 0.7 is more panic, and above 2.0 is more greedy. The long-short ratio data fluctuates greatly, and the reference significance is weakened.


The past week has seen one of the best weeks in history for BTC prices. A strong rally led by BTC is usually a healthy indicator of the start of a sustained uptrend, and broad market spillovers usually ignite altcoin season. In the long run, the tightening credit environment in the United States squeezes economic growth, which instead represents the beginning of the end of the bear market.
