Issue context
The crypto market is navigating a mix of macroeconomic uncertainties and specific developments in key assets. Bitcoin experienced a dip following the rejection of a ceasefire offer between the US and Iran but found stability thanks to sustained inflows into US spot ETFs. This dynamic highlights growing institutional adoption, which acts as a buffer against external shocks. Concurrently, Ethereum is preparing for its Hegotá upgrade, signaling a profound architectural shift that could redefine the future of blockchain scalability. The combination of external geopolitical factors and internal technological advancements creates a complex environment with both risks and opportunities.
Current market conditions indicate that external macroeconomic events can still influence cryptocurrencies, while internal developments and liquidation levels pose specific risks for individual assets. Pay attention to the concentration of liquidation points in Ethereum and the impact of airdrop announcements on altcoins. Your risk appetite should account for these factors.
