Crypto entrepreneur Nic Carter said Bitcoin developers are moving too slowly on making the network quantum-resistant, while Ethereum already has a post-quantum roadmap targeting 2029. He argued that elliptic curve cryptography is nearing obsolescence and that blockchain systems may need to support changing cryptographic schemes, as he warned ETH/BTC could reflect diverging priorities.

Ethereum (ETH) climbed nearly 3% on Wednesday, extending a rebound that lifted price back to the $2,160 area. Ali Martinez said the move may signal a shift from bearish to bullish, highlighting an ascending-triangle setup, on-chain MVRV readings below 0.8, and a SuperTrend flip as key supports for the thesis.

Block Street (BSB) has emerged as one of the market's most explosive performers, skyrocketing 83.7% to reach $0.1515 as of Thursday, March 26, 2026. The parabolic move has pushed the project's market cap to $31.49 million, fueled by a high-octane mix of exchange-led trading competitions and a rapidly growing narrative around Real-World Asset (RWA) liquidity.

Stellar (XLM) gained over 9% in the last 24 hours to trade at $0.1802, while volume jumped more than 49% to $217 million. A daily close above $0.18—an area that has capped price since 1 February 2026—could validate the breakout and set up a 14% move toward $0.21, while failure to hold it may revive downside risk. Derivatives metrics leaned bullish, with Open Interest up 35.97% to $120.55 million and key liquidation levels at $0.1741 and $0.1831.

On Tuesday, Circle Internet Financial (CRCL) fell 22% to $98 after reports tied the move to a revised CLARITY Act draft that would bar platforms from offering stablecoin yield. Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan said the selloff looked "overblown" and argued the bill does not change his base-case view. He said Circle could still reach a $75 billion valuation by 2030 under what he described as conservative assumptions.

Ethereum rebounded above $2,100 after recent volatility, but on-chain watchers say some large holders have shifted from accumulation to selling.

With ETH around $2,100 and down more than 5% over the past seven days, continued large sell-offs could add pressure and test $2,000.
