This is positive for the market because the direct impact of slowing balance sheet reduction is improved liquidity expectations. Slowing the reduction means reducing the speed at which liquidity is withdrawn from the market, equivalent to indirectly injecting more funds into the market. Historical experience shows that improved liquidity environments typically benefit risk assets like Bitcoin. This adjustment is interpreted by the market as a preventive measure by the Fed to avoid debt ceiling issues and potential economic pressures, potentially easing tight money market liquidity.
The token’s performance will be influenced by Binance’s continued market expansion combined with its successful blockchain upgrades. A critical level for $BNB is $604, with bullish outcomes anticipated if this support holds.
US February non-farm payrolls added 151,000 jobs, with the unemployment rate slightly rising to 4.1%. After the data release, Bitcoin led the decline and hit new lows, mainly because there was a Fed interest rate meeting in March, which directly impacted the meeting, almost ensuring the Fed would not cut rates.

In addition to the meeting with WLFI co-founders, CZ also met with Bilal Bin Saqib, CEO of the Pakistan Crypto Council (PCC). This discussion came on the heels of WLFI’s recent collaboration with PCC, which signed a letter of intent to boost blockchain development, stablecoin adoption, and the expansion of DeFi in Pakistan. CZ had also joined PCC as a strategic advisor in early April, further solidifying his commitment to emerging markets.
Although tariffs and trade conflict dominated market attention, institutional investment in the crypto industry continued at a healthy pace, supported by increasing regulatory clarity (for more details, see March 2025: Institutional Chain Reaction). There are now two distinct trends: (1) traditional financial services firms investing in crypto, and (2) crypto-native firms starting to offer traditional financial services. Examples from the last month include reporting that Dutch bank ING is working on a stablecoin, moves by Mastercard to bring stablecoins into its payments network, an announcement from crypto exchange Kraken that it will offer equity and ETF trading, news that BitGo and others are working to get U.S. bank licenses, and the introduction of a new payments platform by stablecoin issuer Circle.
XRP led majors’ gains, rising almost 7%, driven by a ProShares ETF approval that will see three futures-tracked products go live on April 30. Cardano’s ADA gained more than 3% and BNB Chain’s BNB added 1%. Ether (ETH) was unchanged.

CFTC withdraws staff advisory related to virtual currency derivative product listings. Also on March 28, the CFTC’s Division of Market Oversight (DMO) announced it was withdrawing Staff Advisory No. 18-14, which provided guidance and suggested greater burdens for listing virtual currency derivatives products. The DMO cited “additional staff experience” and “increasing market growth and maturity” as reasons for withdrawing the advisory.
Edul Patel, CEO and co-founder, Mudrex, told ABP Live, “Bitcoin remains range-bound, currently hovering around the $94,600 mark. The macroeconomic data collected so far creates a favourable environment for Bitcoin’s rally. The US consumer confidence dropped to 86.0, hitting its lowest since May 2020, while US job openings dropped to 7.19 million, both pointing towards a cooling economy. This raises the probability of an economic stimulus, typically encouraging investment in risk-on assets like crypto. Meanwhile, Bitcoin spot ETFs continue to see strong inflows, with BlackRock purchasing $970 million in BTC, helping stabilise the price. Bitcoin now faces resistance at $96,700, with support rising to $94,000.”
The shift is consistent with President Donald Trump’s other pro-crypto policies, including directives to the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to ease up on crypto regulation and the creation of a digital assets reserve.

Hoskinson has denied any claims from Alexander. In his view, the investors legitimately redeemed 99.8% of the ADA vouchers received from the first token sale. As a result, he announced on a post on X that an independent audit report would soon be made public to show the details regarding the redemption history and crowdsale process in complete transparency, which could go a long way in rebuilding confidence and repairing his reputation.
Cardano price hovers around its key support at $0.72 on Tuesday; a close below could trigger a correction. On-chain metrics support a bearish thesis as ADA daily active addresses and DEX trading volume are falling.
Crypto intelligence tracker DefiLlama data shows that Cardano’s chain DEX trading volume has constantly fallen since early December and currently reads $3.06 million on Tuesday. This fall in volume signaled decreased user activity and liquidity in the ADA blockchain, indicating a bearish outlook.
Cardano is a proof-of-stake (PoS) currency, which means that blocks on the Cardano blockchain are not mined using hashing algorithms like Bitcoin. Rather, coins are earned by “staking” existing coins on the network or by running a master node.
