The cryptocurrency market has generally been negative recently due to huge selling pressure. After the price of Bitcoin fell below $82,000, large holders (whales) sold more than 40,000 BTC, leading to the largest inflow of funds to exchanges in months. At the same time, the altcoin market also showed bearish sentiment, and digital asset investment products saw a large outflow of funds.

During this market turmoil, President Trump's artificial intelligence and cryptocurrency adviser, David Sacks, liquidated his crypto asset holdings before Trump took office. However, there are still some positive signals in the market. Cryptocurrency analyst Peter Brandt predicts that Ethereum may fluctuate sharply in the future, setting a target price of $6,000 for ETH. In addition, Metaplanet took the opportunity to increase its holdings by 156 Bitcoins (about $13.4 million), bringing its total Bitcoin reserves to $222 million.

However, the overall market still maintains a bearish trend, mainly due to the need for Bitcoin to fill the CME gap below $90,000. The market's focus has now turned to March 7, when several important events are expected to be held that day may trigger significant market fluctuations. Notably, Standard Chartered reiterated its Bitcoin price target of $500,000 after Trump revealed his cryptocurrency holdings.
