What to know:

  • Bitcoin fell to $91,200 as BlackRock’s IBIT notched another $113 million in outflows, pressuring sentiment while equities were little changed.
  • Futures open interest slid to $21 billion, basis and funding remained muted, and options positioning stays bullish with call-side skew rising.
  • Ether erased post-Fusaka gains, while the CD20 and memecoins weakened further.
  • ZEC y TRX desafiaron la tendencia con una fuerza destacada.

The crypto market fell during the European morning, with bitcoin BTC$91,190.06 dropping to $91,200 after hitting a weekly high of $94,200 on Wednesday.

The decline was confined to crypto: U.S. equities were little changed in pre-market trading and the FTSE100 index rose 0.15%.

La vente massive peut être attribuée à des sorties record de l'ETF bitcoin IBIT de BlackRock, avec 113 millions de dollars supplémentaires de sorties enregistrées jeudi alors que les taureaux de la crypto n'ont pas réussi à reprendre le contrôle du marché aux ours.

El índice de Miedo y Avaricia permanece deprimido en 25/100, sin lograr encontrar su camino hacia una zona neutral después de estar por debajo de 40/100 durante más de un mes.

Posicionamiento de derivados

  • El mercado de futuros de BTC muestra una cautela sostenida y un desapalancamiento agresivo. El interés abierto (OI) ha caído a $21 mil millones desde $25 mil millones hace un mes, lo que indica una reducción en el apalancamiento y la exposición al riesgo de los comerciantes.
  • Este desapalancamiento está ocurriendo junto con métricas de derivados de mercado consistentemente bajas: la base anualizada a tres meses se mantiene estable en 4%-5%, y las tasas de financiación son estables en 5%-6% en los principales lugares, sin que ninguna métrica muestre un cambio significativo en el último mes.
  • Les options BTC montrent un biais haussier soutenu malgré la baisse de la volatilité. La structure à terme de la volatilité implicite (IV) pour le court terme a chuté, s'éloignant de la backwardation vers un contango plus typique, indiquant une baisse des mouvements de prix immédiats et extrêmes attendus.
  • No obstante, la inclinación del volumen sigue siendo alcista, con un volumen de opciones de compra/venta de 24 horas aún al 57% a favor de las opciones de compra. Crucialmente, la inclinación de 25 delta a una semana ha visto un ligero aumento reciente al 8%, confirmando que los comerciantes todavía están pagando una prima por la exposición al alza a corto plazo.
  • La reciente volatilidad del precio de BTC provocó liquidaciones de $280 millones en 24 horas, con $200 millones siendo posiciones largas. ETH ($88 millones) y BTC ($85 millones) lideran en términos de liquidaciones nominales.
  • El mapa de calor de liquidaciones BTC/USDT en Binance sugiere una gran cantidad de liquidaciones largas alrededor de $90,600, según los datos de Coinglass. Ese es el nivel a tener en cuenta, en caso de una caída de precios.

Charla de tokens

  • The altcoin market performed equally poorly over the past 24 hours as TAO, HYPE and NEAR all lost more than 6.5% of their value.
  • But the biggest story was in the price action of ether ETH$3,127.27. Less than a day after its much-anticipated Fusaka upgrade, ETH gave back much of its initial gains, falling 2.62% from its daily high at 03:00 UTC.
  • La acción de precio apagada de ETH pinta una historia reveladora para el mercado más amplio de altcoins, ya que incluso los supuestos catalizadores alcistas están cayendo en oídos sordos.
  • The CoinDesk 20 (CD20) index mirrored ETH's decline while CDMEME, CoinDesk's memecoin index, slid 5.8% in the past 24 hours.
  • CoinMarketCap's "Altcoin Season" indicator se estancó en 21/100, aparentemente permanece atrapado en una zona bajista con los comerciantes optando por la consistencia de bitcoin y la seguridad de las stablecoins.
  • Dos excepciones a la caída del viernes: la moneda de privacidad zcash ZEC$385.30 y TRX, el token nativo de la cadena de bloques Tron, que subieron un 4.7% y un 1.8%, respectivamente.
  • In the case of ZEC, it is bouncing back from a corrective phase where it became "oversold" on the relative strength index (RSI). TRX, meanwhile, seems to be running its own race having recorded gains on the daily, weekly, and monthly timeframes.

Another $113 million exited on Thursday, putting the fund on track for a sixth week in the red, its longest streak since debuting in early 2024.

Why The Green Bay Packers Must Take The Cleveland Browns Seriously — As Hard As That Might Be

The post Why The Green Bay Packers Must Take The Cleveland Browns Seriously — As Hard As That Might Be appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers are off to a 2-0 start. Getty Images The Green Bay Packers are, once again, one of the NFL’s better teams. The Cleveland Browns are, once again, one of the league’s doormats. It’s why unbeaten Green Bay (2-0) is a 8-point favorite at winless Cleveland (0-2) Sunday according to betmgm.com. The money line is also Green Bay -500. Most expect this to be a Packers’ rout, and it very well could be. But Green Bay knows taking anyone in this league for granted can prove costly. “I think if you look at their roster, the paper, who they have on that team, what they can do, they got a lot of talent and things can turn around quickly for them,” Packers safety Xavier McKinney said. “We just got to kind of keep that in mind and know we not just walking into something and they just going to lay down. That’s not what they going to do.” The Browns certainly haven’t laid down on defense. Far from. Cleveland is allowing an NFL-best 191.5 yards per game. The Browns gave up 141 yards to Cincinnati in Week 1, including just seven in the second half, but still lost, 17-16. Cleveland has given up an NFL-best 45.5 rushing yards per game and just 2.1 rushing yards per attempt. “The biggest thing is our defensive line is much, much improved over last year and I think we’ve got back to our personality,” defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz said recently. “When we play our best, our D-line leads us there as our engine.” The Browns rank third in the league in passing defense, allowing just 146.0 yards per game. Cleveland has also gone 30 straight games without allowing a 300-yard passer, the longest active streak in the NFL.…

One Of Frank Sinatra’s Most Famous Albums Is Back In The Spotlight

One Of Frank Sinatra’s Most Famous Albums Is Back In The Spotlight

The post One Of Frank Sinatra’s Most Famous Albums Is Back In The Spotlight appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Frank Sinatra’s The World We Knew returns to the Jazz Albums and Traditional Jazz Albums charts, showing continued demand for his timeless music. Frank Sinatra performs on his TV special Frank Sinatra: A Man and his Music Bettmann Archive These days on the Billboard charts, Frank Sinatra’s music can always be found on the jazz-specific rankings. While the art he created when he was still working was pop at the time, and later classified as traditional pop, there is no such list for the latter format in America, and so his throwback projects and cuts appear on jazz lists instead. It’s on those charts where Sinatra rebounds this week, and one of his popular projects returns not to one, but two tallies at the same time, helping him increase the total amount of real estate he owns at the moment. Frank Sinatra’s The World We Knew Returns Sinatra’s The World We Knew is a top performer again, if only on the jazz lists. That set rebounds to No. 15 on the Traditional Jazz Albums chart and comes in at No. 20 on the all-encompassing Jazz Albums ranking after not appearing on either roster just last frame. The World We Knew’s All-Time Highs The World We Knew returns close to its all-time peak on both of those rosters. Sinatra’s classic has peaked at No. 11 on the Traditional Jazz Albums chart, just missing out on becoming another top 10 for the crooner. The set climbed all the way to No. 15 on the Jazz Albums tally and has now spent just under two months on the rosters. Frank Sinatra’s Album With Classic Hits Sinatra released The World We Knew in the summer of 1967. The title track, which on the album is actually known as “The World We Knew (Over and…
