Arkham posted on the X platform that Avi Eisenberg, the attacker who profited approximately $110 million in 2022 by manipulating the price oracle of Mango Markets, has recently signed a transaction with his on-chain address, drawing widespread attention from the community.Avi Eisenberg previously exploited a vulnerability in Mango Finance to conduct "high-profit trades," and later threatened to attack Aave. He was also liquidated on Curve while attempting to liquidate others' positions, and was arrested and imprisoned after the incident. Now, his address has reappeared with on-chain activity, leading the market to speculate whether he has returned to the crypto market, although no further details have been disclosed yet.

Recently, during the Hong Kong Web3 Festival, at the "CypherAsia Smart Crypto Finance Forum" hosted by institutions such as Fosun Wealth Holdings, FinChain, and exSat, guests including ME Group President Vito Luo, FinChain CTO Lance Liu, SBVA Executive Director Wang Yinzhen, Solana Foundation Solutions Architect Mike Ma, Copilot Venture Studio Co-founder Yang Linyuan, and NeoSoul Co-founder Kaelan discussed the development trends of AI and crypto finance.During the forum, NeoSoul Co-founder Kaelan stated that the AI industry is still in the early stages of rapid evolution. When evaluating AI projects, it is important to look not only at the current products but also at whether the team can continuously keep up with the changes in the underlying model capabilities.Kaelan pointed out that AI entrepreneurship requires both groundedness and vision. Groundedness means that the team must have the ability to implement engineering, design products, and understand the market to create perceivable products; vision means that the team should build in line with the evolution of large models.He believes that some early AI products may seem like toys, but in emerging industries, the existence of toy-like forms should be allowed. Many truly new paradigms often first appear as experimental products.

Huobi HTX global advisor Sun Yuchen made a significant appearance at the HTX Genesis Hackathon opening ceremony in Hong Kong in an online format, sharing his latest insights on the application prospects of AI Agent technology in the Web3 field and the future development direction of the industry. He pointed out that AI Agent will replace traditional interaction methods and become the core driving force of the next phase of the Web3 ecosystem.He explained that past Web3 applications often came with extremely high learning thresholds and complex on-chain interactions, while the introduction of AI Agent will drive decentralized applications (DApps) to evolve from "manual operation" to "intention-driven" based on natural language. This means that AI Agents can autonomously understand user needs, automatically plan paths, and complete complex on-chain settlements such as cross-chain transactions. This paradigm shift towards intelligence and autonomy will not only greatly unleash on-chain productivity but also become a new breakthrough point to break the bottleneck of Web3 user growth and lead the industry toward true mass adoption.It is reported that the HTX Genesis Hackathon is hosted by HTX DAO and B.AI, co-hosted by TinTinLand and OpenCity, attracting numerous developer communities, investment institutions, project parties, trading platforms, and public chain ecosystems to participate.

According to CoinDesk, the gap between Bitcoin's spot price and its realized price (the average cost basis of all on-chain tokens weighted by their last transaction time) is narrowing, approaching the levels seen at the bottoms of past cycles. However, on-chain data shows that the market has not yet experienced a typical capitulation sell-off. Currently, Bitcoin's realized price is about $54,286, the spot price is about $68,774, and the premium is about 21%. The bottom signal of the 2022 bear market was when the spot price fell below the realized price, which occurred when the spot was about 15% lower than the realized price at the cycle low.The current 21% premium indicates that the average holder is still in profit. To reach the realized price, Bitcoin would need to drop about 20% to $54,000. Notably, the speed of the premium's contraction, from about 120% at the end of 2024 to 21% after 15 months, is the fastest approach to the realized price line outside of a market crash.Other on-chain signals also indicate that the market has not completed its reset: the Coinbase premium index has returned to negative values, suggesting weakened institutional demand. Analysts believe that although Bitcoin has maintained a range of $65,000 to $70,000 for five weeks, the inflow of over $1 billion into ETFs in March shows there are buyers, but the market has not yet gone through the painful process that historically marks a bottom.

According to independent analyst Markus Thielen, Ethereum has broken through a key technical support level and is currently showing a bearish flag pattern, with prices touching around $2004. This pattern is highly similar to this year's trend, and caution is advised as this pattern may reoccur.On the funding side, market trading volume remains sluggish, with insufficient participation willingness. Ethereum ETFs have continued to see net outflows since last year, with no recent improvement. On the fundamental side, the new cycle of DeFi has not yet started, and there are no obvious signs of recovery in on-chain activity. Recently, the minting volume of USDC has significantly slowed down and turned into net outflows. The improvement in liquidity within the ecosystem is still not stable, and structural demand support remains limited.

According to market news, after Bitcoin pulled back from $76,000, the Overall Liquidity indicator and the ALT Resilient Index showed a significant resonance in the 65K--66K range. Historical data shows that such resonance often corresponds to the formation of short-term bottoms, indicating conditions for a rebound.

According to Jin Shi reports, Federal Reserve official Barkin stated that maintaining interest rates unchanged in March "seems prudent."

X is suspected to be malfunctioning and is temporarily unable to display tweets.

Collins purchased approximately 6,000 BTC with proceeds from marijuana sales between 2011 and 2012, and stored them across 12 wallets. His private keys were saved in paper form, hidden in a fishing rod case in a rental property in Galway, Ireland. After Collins was arrested in 2017, the house was cleared out, and his personal belongings were sent to a landfill.Subsequently, both the authorities and Collins believed that the private keys had been permanently lost, and the court ruled that the related assets were to be confiscated as criminal proceeds. The on-chain transfer of 500 BTC indicates that this batch of assets may not have been completely lost.

Bitget made its appearance as the official partner at the 2026 MotoGP Brazil round. The event was held at the Goiânia International Circuit. This is also Bitget's first time sponsoring a MotoGP event in South America, continuing to deepen its presence in emerging markets after launching a series of activities in Italy, Germany, Catalonia, and Indonesia in 2025.At the venue, Bitget created a two-level interactive experience area, allowing spectators to experience the charm of racing through racing simulators, VR games, and other installations, while further understanding the multi-asset unified trading environment. There was also a VIP area and brand displays along the track.Online, the platform simultaneously upgraded the virtual challenge "Smarter Speed Challenge," integrating asset classes such as cryptocurrencies, US stocks, and gold into racing gameplay to convey trading concepts in a more interactive way. Since its launch in early March, the event has attracted nearly 100,000 users, with a prize pool exceeding 120,000 USDT.

According to Jinshi reports, Ameriprise Financial Chief Market Strategist Anthony Saglimbene stated that the Federal Reserve's policy statement and interest rate decision were in line with expectations, and the economic outlook summary and statement were slightly dovish.

According to Jinshi reports, Federal Reserve Chairman Powell stated that the current level of inflation is still slightly high.

According to Cointelegraph, Andrei Grachev, managing partner of crypto market maker DWF Labs, analyzed that the "Altseason" driven by the overall rise of the crypto market is becoming a thing of the past. The surge in the number of tokens in the market, the limited scale of participants, and the absorption of liquidity by crypto ETFs are changing the market structure. Currently, institutional funds are more inclined to allocate to Bitcoin, Ethereum, and tokenized real-world assets (RWA), further diverting attention and funds away from altcoins. In the future, the market will see shorter narrative cycles and more intense sector rotations, with a large number of mid- to long-tail tokens resembling high-risk investments or "casino-like" assets, struggling to survive solely on speculation.Data shows that over the past 13 months, the market capitalization of altcoins has cumulatively flowed out more than $209 billion, and currently about 38% of altcoin prices are close to historical lows.

Iran's New Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei Has Not Made a Public AppearanceIran's new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei has not made a public appearance for a long time, sparking strong speculation about his serious injuries. In the face of rampant rumors, the son of the Iranian president and senior relatives urgently came forward to clarify, insisting that the new leader is "safe and sound."A relative of Mojtaba told the Financial Times: "He is currently in good condition and is still busy with various tasks. For security and political reasons, he has decided not to make any public appearances for the time being. To some extent, this also creates uncertainty for his opponents, preventing them from getting accurate information about him. Let them guess slowly." The expert meeting did not clarify whether Khamenei was present during the meeting and did not provide details about the voting process.Earlier reports indicated that Iran's ambassador to Cyprus, Alireza Salarian, stated in an interview that Iran's new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei was injured in the airstrikes by the United States and Israel on February 28.

According to market news, Musk acknowledged that in the multi-billion dollar lawsuit surrounding his $44 billion acquisition of Twitter, he stated that the tweet he posted "may not have been my wisest move," while the world's richest man is defending himself in court against allegations of market manipulation. He told a San Francisco jury on Wednesday that the tweet was not intended to manipulate Twitter's stock price, which was during the acquisition negotiations.A group of Twitter investors claims they suffered losses after Musk threatened to walk away from the deal to gain leverage in the acquisition talks, despite Musk knowing he was legally obligated to complete the $44 billion acquisition. After signing a binding acquisition agreement in April 2022 and waiving his right to conduct due diligence, Musk quickly began questioning the number of bot accounts on the platform.On May 13, 2022, he tweeted that unless the company could prove that "spam/fake accounts are indeed less than 5% of users," the deal would be "on hold temporarily." On that day, Twitter's stock price fell by 9% at the opening.

Matrixport's analysis states that market sentiment remains tense. However, as the market has been trading on the escalation of the situation in the Middle East for a considerable time, the related risks have been largely priced in, with oil prices currently reflecting a geopolitical premium of about $8 to $10 per barrel. If the process of conflict de-escalation occurs faster than the market's general concerns, risk assets may experience a tactical rebound.From a technical perspective, after a large-scale liquidation of positions, Bitcoin has not seen a further significant decline, showing resilience. As the market enters a consolidation phase, the RSI continues to rise, and bullish divergence signals are gradually emerging. As long as this indicator maintains a fluctuating upward trend, the downward momentum of prices may be suppressed. This also means that continuing to increase short positions at current levels has a weakening risk-reward ratio.

Binance Research posted on social media that the leverage ratio of Bitcoin has surged to its highest level since November last year, as the speed of price decline has outpaced the process of active deleveraging.This passive increase in leverage indicates that the market is under peak pressure, and as the deleveraging process slows down and liquidity gradually concentrates, this may signal that a short-term bottom is approaching.
