⚠️ Bitcoin Analyst Warns of Caution This Summer

👀 Renowned market analyst Benjamin Cowen recently discussed the U.S. labor market data and its potential impact on the stock market and Bitcoin. He emphasized that while the labor market appears resilient, investors should exercise caution during the summer months.

📉 Cowen pointed out that recent data shows the unemployment rate remains stable at 4.3%, which aligns with expectations. He noted that the low levels of layoffs and initial unemployment claims support the view that the U.S. economy is not yet in a recession. However, referencing data from previous years (2023, 2024, and 2025), he reminded that unemployment claims typically increase in June and the summer months.

I don't think we're in a recession zone unless initial unemployment claims reach 300,000,

Cowen stated.

📊 Commenting on the S&P 500 index trading at record highs, Cowen remarked that this is not unusual for "midterm election years." He pointed to similar cycles in 2014 and 2018 when the market rose until September but then experienced sharp corrections.

📈 Adopting a cautious and pessimistic stance on Bitcoin, Cowen stated that BTC remains weak compared to the stock markets. He argued that while the S&P 500 and NASDAQ reach record highs, Bitcoin is far from its peak. He warned that a potential correction in the stock markets could drag Bitcoin to new lows.

I have been going down a bit of a rabbit hole lately and came across something that actually stood out.

It’s called staynex.vip, a Web3 travel platform unlocking 2.6M+ hotels worldwide, with zero markup pricing and crypto rewards every time you book.

What caught my attention more was the backing of Jeff Hoffman the founder of Priceline and Booking.com is involved as chairman, not just another name slapped on as an advisor.

They’re launching their native token, $STAY, on April 23rd across three major exchanges , designed to power a new travel economy, where users earn, spend, and unlock real world perks directly through the platform.

If you want to take a look yourself, their Linktree is probably the easiest starting point:

📉 Bitcoin Futures Funding Rates Hit Lowest Level Since 2023

📊 A significant event has occurred in the cryptocurrency market. According to data from Glassnode, a blockchain data analytics company, the funding rate for Bitcoin perpetual futures has dropped to its lowest level since 2023.

🔔 The decline in the funding rate indicates that a substantial portion of investors in derivative markets anticipate a decrease in prices. A negative funding rate is considered an important indicator of increased short positions and suggests that market participants expect prices to fall. However, Glassnode has recently noted a notable divergence. Despite the funding rates remaining consistently negative throughout March and April, the price of Bitcoin gradually increased from a low of $60,000 to approximately $75,000. This indicates an inverse relationship between overall market expectations and price dynamics.

📈 Historical data also shows similar signals. Periods when the funding rate turned negative often coincided with local market lows. Examples include events such as the pandemic-induced crash in March 2020, the correction process in mid-2021, and the FTX collapse in 2022. Experts emphasize that current data may indicate a potential market bottom, but investors should also carefully monitor macroeconomic events and liquidity conditions.

🔔 Peter Schiff Warns of 92% Bitcoin Decline Risk Amid Geopolitical Tensions

📉 Bitcoin recently surpassed $72K, trading at $71,400 at the time of publication. However, seasoned economist Peter Schiff seized the moment to present a new bearish scenario, linking price risks to both market structure and geopolitical tensions. He argues that Bitcoin's upside potential is limited at current levels and the risk of a pullback remains open, foreseeing a decline of over 90% for the world's largest digital asset.

🚫 Schiff outlined a scenario where Bitcoin's value could drop to $10,000 by the end of 2026, implying approximately 92% decrease from recent highs above $70,000. He emphasized that his perspective is not about timing but positioning. Even at $10,000, Bitcoin would still be one of the best assets over a 10-year window, but most holders would face significant losses.

⚠️ The previous drop of Bitcoin below $70,000 occurred amidst rising geopolitical risks surrounding Iran, including threats of military escalation and the Hormuz Strait, which pushed oil prices up and kept stocks volatile. Schiff argued that even markets do not take President Donald Trump's threats seriously, just like Iran does not.

📊 Meanwhile, Michael Saylor's firm continues to accumulate Bitcoin despite the weakness. Recently, the company added 4,871 BTC at an average price of $67,718, spending about $330 million. Total assets now stand at 766,970 BTC acquired for approximately $58 billion. Schiff contended that continued purchases at such levels depend on maintaining bullish narratives.

Hi, my dear cryptans! Today I will both delight you and disappoint you.

Let's start with the bad news. Grass Epoch #16 has ended without an airdrop. I don't even know what to expect from them — we've been farming air for 1.5 years…

On the positive side — look at the screenshot above. I talked about this app last week, and honestly, I little bit worried it might be a scam, but the result = +4% to my balance over a week of staking. This is a really cool result, and now given that the project actually works, I added $500 to my deposit and bought a premium ticket which promises 16% profit☠️

KEY POINT: This is not financial advice, but you can see the results yourself in the screenshot. You can start with a small amount and increase your deposit each week + don't forget about compound interest. Here’s the Lucky Train link.

🌟 Breaking News in DeFi: CryptoG Group Sets March 25 for Historic Proof of Reserves & Liquidity Event! 🌟

We're thrilled to spotlight a groundbreaking announcement from CryptoG Group, the anonymous non-profit powerhouse driving decentralized finance through their CryptoGDEX platform and $CGX token. Backed by an impressive 1.1 million BTC in reserves - valued at over $100 billion - this community-focused organization is gearing up for a game-changing event on March 25, 2026.

What to Expect:

🚀 Live Proof-of-Reserves Demonstration: Witness a real-time, on-chain BTC transfer from their verified holdings, setting a new standard for transparency in crypto.

📈 Massive Liquidity Injection: Co-hosted with a Tier-1 centralized exchange and institutional partners (NDA signed, sealed), this will deliver deep market depth and an immediate valuation of $10,000 per CGX token.

🏆 Holder Rewards & Staking Perks: If you hold at least 2,000 CGX in any Stellar wallet by 12:00 PM ET on March 25, you're in line for exclusive benefits as the ecosystem evolves toward full CryptoGDEX launch in Q3 2026.

🗓 Roadmap Milestones: Expect further BTC liquidations, the debut of CryptoG Bank, and a push toward over 1 million holders by 2027 - all under decentralized governance.

Read the full press release here:

👉 https://news.bitcoin.com/cryptog-group-announces-march-25-proof-of-reserves-and-liquidity-event/

Note:

With a fixed total supply of 1.1 million CGX, the project has already achieved significant community ownership:

✅ More than 50% of the total CGX issued has already been distributed to holders through the fair launch and ongoing mechanisms.
✅ Most likely, another ~20% will be acquired by a Tier-1 exchange partner for listing purposes as part of the March 25 preparations (this acquisition is ongoing and in final stages).
✅ This leaves around 30% more available for distribution to the public in the evolving ecosystem.

Combined with the original fair launch details (95% of supply targeted for public hands overall, with 5% reserved), this positions CGX as one of the most decentralized and community-driven tokens in the space.

With such a high percentage already in public circulation and more strategic distribution ahead, CGX remains a compelling opportunity for long-term DeFi participants focused on trust and equitable growth.

Keep your CGX holdings ready - the March 25 date is approaching fast! Official info at cryptogdex.io or via [email protected].
