SUNDAY SELL-OFF 📉

BREAKING: Bitcoin tumbles to $80K as Trump’s economic policies stir debate

Another Sunday… another brutal sell-off…

Sunday saw Bitcoin tumble to a low of ~$80,000, marking a 7% decline.

However, at the time of writing it has since “recovered”, now hovering around the $82,000 mark.

The wider crypto market isn’t faring any better:

• Ethereum: -5.61%

• Solana: -8.15%

• XRP: -6.30%

And it’s not just crypto taking a hit…

Tech stocks in particular are getting crushed:

• Nvidia (NVDA): -19.8%

• Tesla (TSLA): -12%

• Microsoft (MSFT): -5.8%

It’s a bloodbath out there. 😲

So what’s going on with the markets?

Well you probably guessed it…

This broader market sell-off is still a result of Trump’s recent economic policies. (Namely his tariffs)

During an interview with Fox News, President Trump admitted that his policies will cause short-term pain:

Markets immediately reacted to this statement.

With uncertainty running high, investors are de-risking, waiting for clarity on where the economy is headed.

And we’ll have more information on that shortly…

All eyes are now on key U.S. economic reports:

• Consumer price index(CPI) on March 12th

• Producer Price Index (PPI) on March 13th

If inflation comes in hotter than expected, markets could react negatively - potentially delaying rate cuts even further.

But if inflation shows signs of cooling, it could inject some much-needed relief into risk assets like Bitcoin.

URGENT MESSAGE 🚨

Sell the car. Sell the house. 🏠

But whatever you do, do not sell your Bitcoin.

That’s the urgent message out from Fred Krueger.

Fred Krueger is a very successful entrepreneur, investor & he also has a PHD in math.

As Bitcoin plunged to nearly $80,000 today, Fred had an urgent message to investors:

Following the news about the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, Fred believes now is the perfect time to buy:

Finally, he dropped a timely reminder:

Fred’s message is loud and clear - don’t panic, stack sats.

With Bitcoin at $80K and both institutions & nations jumping in, the window to stack before the next leg up is closing fast.

Are you paying attention? 👀

STAYING STRONG 💪

Let’s kick off the week with a checkin on the Bitcoin HODL waves! 🌊 

Each coloured band shows the percentage of Bitcoin that last moved within that time period.

As the colours get cooler, the age bands get older (purple being the oldest, representing coins last moved more than 10 years ago).

As always, we’ll be focusing on long-term holders today. (coins held for more than 6 months)

Here’s the current breakdown compared to two weeks ago:

• 6m - 12m: 9.80% (down from 10.66%)

• 1y - 2y: 10.42% (up from 9.97%)

• 2y - 3y: 8.16% (up from 8.06%)

• 3y - 4y: 9.01% (down from 9.47%)

• 4y - 5y: 7.03% (up from 6.69%)

• 5y - 10y: 14.86% (down from 14.89%)

• >10y: 9.18% (down from 9.16%)

TL;DR: 68.47% of Bitcoin’s supply hasn’t moved in over six months.

But… that’s a 0.42% decrease from two weeks ago. 😢

Key takeaways:

• 6m-12m holders are selling, while 1y-5y cohorts are growing.

• Some mid-term holders are taking profits, but true long-term holders keep accumulating.

• Still no signs of major distribution - this remains a strong HODL trend overall.

While this small dip suggests minor selling, the long-term trend is still intact.
