VIPBitget VIP Weekly Research InsightsOver the past few weeks, BTC has repeatedly tested the $100,000 resistance level, briefly breaking through multiple times before failing to hold, resulting in sharp declines Altcoins have entered a technical bear market, though SOL has shown resilience during both downturns and rebounds. However, the trading frenzy surrounding Solana-based memecoins has cooled, while discussions of institutional unlocking have gained traction on social media. On the night of March 2, Trump announced plans to establish a strategic crypto reserve, explicitly mentioning BTC, ETH, XRP, SOL, and ADA. This statement briefly reignited market sentiment amid oversold conditions, triggering a sharp crypto rebound. However, macroeconomic conditions remain largely unchanged, and liquidity recovery is a gradual process.

VIPBitget VIP Weekly Research InsightsThe recent decline in the crypto industry stems from several key factors. First, volatility in the macroeconomic environment—such as the sharp drop in US stocks and global market uncertainty—has weighed heavily on high-risk assets like Bitcoin. Second, an increase in hacker attacks, including a $1.5 billion cryptocurrency theft on February 22, triggered panic and led to over 170,000 liquidations. Third, rising regulatory pressure, such as the SEC’s increased scrutiny of cryptocurrencies in the US and restrictions on trading and mining in some countries, has further undermined investor confidence. Additionally, the market is in a consolidation phase, with many funds buying the dip in the short term but quickly exiting as risk appetite declines. Finally, Bitcoin's failure to break through key resistance levels has led to weak demand and network activity, while ETF outflows have exacerbated the downward pressure. These combined factors have created short-term strain on the crypto market, contributing to its decline. As a result, this edition focuses on Earn-related products.
VIPBitget VIP Weekly Research InsightsRecently, BTC has weakened, altcoins have declined across the board, and trading volume on the Solana blockchain has continued to shrink. Daily transaction volume on Solana has hit new yearly lows, with over $200 million in sell-offs on pump.fun in just over two months since the start of the year. Additionally, the hype surrounding Argentina's president-related memecoin last weekend drained additional liquidity from the Solana network. Adding to investor concerns, a large amount of SOL is set to be unlocked on March 1, exacerbating deteriorating sentiment and leading to a noticeable decline in market wealth effects. Against this backdrop, investors are advised to reduce leverage, manage risk, and reserve funds for potential dip-buying opportunities. This edition highlights several USDT-based, SOL-based, and BTC-based Earn products, offering investors a diverse range of investment options.

Recently, several U.S. financial giants have applied to launch spot ETFs for assets such as XRP and LTC.

- 09:33Goldman Sachs: Fed Expected to Cut Rates by 25 Basis Points in September, Five-Year U.S. Treasuries Seen as the Best Trade Before the Rate CutAccording to a report by Jinse Finance, Goldman Sachs’ Chief Global Banking and Markets Strategist, Shifrin, stated that five-year U.S. Treasury bonds are currently the most attractive trading option amid the prospect of potential Federal Reserve rate cuts. He pointed out that five-year Treasury yields in the 3%-4% range offer investment value while also providing protection when market risks rise. At present, the five-year U.S. Treasury yield stands at 3.85%, a significant drop from 4.38% at the beginning of the year. A Reuters survey shows that 61% of economists expect the Federal Reserve to lower its benchmark interest rate by 25 basis points to the 4%-4.25% range at its September meeting. Goldman Sachs forecasts that, given the slowdown in real GDP growth and rising unemployment, the Fed may begin a rate-cutting cycle in the fourth quarter of 2025 and continue easing into 2026, ultimately adjusting the policy rate to the 3%-3.25% level.
