Ethereum briefly plummeted to $1,415 on Monday amidst a broader market bloodbath. The crypto asset has since recovered and is currently trading at $1,505. Despite this, its price was still down by 15% over the past 24 hours. This sharp decline comes as the broader cryptocurrency market reacts negatively to the Trump administration’s intensified global tariff approach. Data suggest that the $1,290 support level now marks a critical threshold for Ethereum, with whales’ average cost basis signaling potential recovery or further decline. CryptoQuant’s analysis indicates that Ethereum’s next major support level is at $1,290, where the average cost basis (realized price) of whales holding over 100,000 ETH sits. With the average cost basis for all Ethereum holders around $2,200, many are currently facing losses. Despite this, the on-chain analytic platform stated that the altcoin has shown resilience in the past, such as during the Terra-Luna crisis in June 2022, when it reached a low of $870 but quickly rebounded. This suggests potential for recovery even in challenging market conditions. Meanwhile, whale activity and market behavior indicate that there may be more challenges ahead. As the asset’s price took a massive hit, Spot On Chain reported that an Ethereum ICO whale had deposited 7,000 ETH, which is worth approximately $10.21 million, to Kraken. Despite the recent deposit, the whale still holds 23,070 ETH, worth around $34.5 million, and has been offloading tokens during sharp price declines. The latest move appears to be bearish for its price in the short term. When a whale deposits a large amount of an asset to a crypto exchange, it often signals that they may be preparing to sell, especially considering that this particular whale has been offloading tokens during price drops. On a positive note, IntoTheBlock has reported that Ether’s Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) ratio has dropped to 0.87, representing its lowest point since December 2022. This metric indicates that the asset is currently undervalued. A low MVRV suggests potential for a price recovery, as it reflects the possibility of accumulation among investors at discounted levels.

CLS Global, a crypto market maker registered in the United Arab Emirates, has been hit with a $428,000 fine for wash trading of the FBI’s bait token NexFundAI. On April 2, a federal court in Boston sentenced CLS Global on criminal charges for manipulating trading volumes of NexFundAI token. NexFundAI is a bait token launched by FBI in March 2024 as part of a sting operation called “Operation Token Mirrors.” In October 2024, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filed fraud charges against CLS Global and several other companies that had taken the bait, including ZM Quant Investment and Gotbit Consulting. MyTrade was also allegedly involved . The FBI reported that the operation led to the confiscation of $25 million in cryptocurrency, and several wash trading bots were shut down. In addition to the $428,000 fine, the court imposed a three-year probation on CLS Global, banning the company from offering services in the U.S. during this period. CLS Global had pleaded guilty to charges in January this year. According to a January report from Chainalysis , wash trading accounts for an estimated $2.57 billion in trading volumes within the crypto market. However, global efforts are underway to crack down on this practice, as well as broader market manipulation. One recent example is Galaxy Digital’s $200 million settlement last month, resolving allegations of manipulating the LUNA token following an investigation by New York regulators. Earlier, the SEC accused Justin Sun for manipulating the markets for BitTorrent ( BTT ) and Tron ( TRX ) through wash trading, giving the false impression of active trading and liquidity. However, the case has been put on hold .

This is happening to me again after Luna. Now Slt will be delisted after we've lost everything. This is crazy

Michael Novogratz’s Galaxy Digital recently agreed to pay $200 million in penalties to resolve allegations that it violated New York laws when it promoted the cryptocurrency LUNA without disclosing its financial interests in the asset. According to New York Attorney General Letitia James, Novogratz’s failure to disclose that Galaxy Digital sold its LUNA tokens while promoting them was misleading. As part of the settlement, Galaxy Digital and its affiliates are obliged to pay $40 million within 15 days of the execution of the assurance of discontinuance (AD) issued by the attorney general. Galaxy Digital also agreed to pay another $40 million within one year, $60 million within two years, and the final payment within three years of the AD’s execution. Attorney General James’ allegations stem from claims that Novogratz and his company played an active role in boosting LUNA’s market presence between 2020 and 2022. James’ office alleges that Galaxy Digital purchased LUNA tokens, promoted them extensively, and sold its holdings at significant profits—all without revealing its intent to sell or its financial stake in the asset. The New York Attorney General’s office contends that this practice misled investors and contributed to LUNA’s meteoric rise from $0.31 in October 2020 to $119.18 in April 2022. It adds that Novogratz’s public endorsement of LUNA, including getting a tattoo to commemorate its price reaching $100, played a significant role in attracting investor interest. However, the token’s collapse in mid-2022 wiped out over $40 billion in market value, leaving many investors financially ruined. The firm’s undisclosed sales of LUNA tokens, which occurred just before its collapse, raised questions about its ethical practices and compliance with New York’s stringent financial regulations, Attorney General James argued. “Today’s settlement sends a clear message that we will not tolerate unregistered securities sales in New York,” said Attorney General James. “We will continue to protect investors and hold companies accountable for their actions.” The settlement highlights the importance of transparency in the cryptocurrency industry, particularly as digital assets continue to gain mainstream attention. While Galaxy Digital did not admit wrongdoing, the New York Attorney General’s office concluded that the relief and agreements contained in the Assurance of Discontinuance were appropriate and in the public interest. Meanwhile, the Assurance of Discontinuance outlines the conditions under which the office may initiate a subsequent investigation or civil action against Galaxy Digital and its affiliates. 免责声明：本文章仅代表作者个人观点，不代表本平台的立场和观点。本文章仅供信息分享，不构成对任何人的任何投资建议。用户与作者之间的任何争议，与本平台无关。如网页中刊载的文章或图片涉及侵权，请提供相关的权利证明和身份证明发送邮件到support@aicoin.com，本平台相关工作人员将会进行核查。

token of the Curve Finance ecosystem, for potential profit-making opportunities within the current crypto market. The analyst noted a bullish preference for CRV, citing its recent rebound from a key support level as a “perfect retest and pump” scenario playing out. The analyst shared a screenshot of CRV/USD’s 4-hour chart to illustrate their analysis. They highlighted areas showing how the price emerged through critical resistance levels which appeared to reflect building bullish momentum based on the pattern. His chart analysis indicated that CRV’s price spent most of February and March consolidating within a defined price range before the recent move. Related: Early Moves Pay Off as XRP, CRV, and WIF Stabilize at Lows Despite trading within that range previously, CRV’s more recent price action revealed what the analyst identified as a classic uptrend confirmation in late March. This sequence involved the price breaking above crucial prior resistance, successfully flipping that level into new support, and then retesting that support area before continuing its upward trajectory. AltCryptoGems considered this specific break-and-retest price pattern a confirmation of CRV’s bullish short-to-medium term outlook. He cited the upper limit of the prior trading range as the next crucial resistance test for the altcoin’s strength. Related: Why Are LUNA, CRV, GMT, and FTT Experiencing a Surge? Key Insights for Newcomers TradingView data showed CRV trading near $0.5327 at press time (early April 1), after pulling back slightly from a daily high of $0.5775 reached earlier. That daily high coincided precisely with a significant long-term downward trendline drawn from the cryptocurrency’s prior major high near $1.34 set in December 2024. Breaking decisively above this multi-month trendline is needed for CRV to potentially target the $0.6064 resistance level next. Clearing that could allow the token to enter a broader trading range, possibly with increased volatility. Although AltCryptoGems appreciated CRV’s recent bullish chart signals, he also expressed broader confidence in its further upside potential moving forward. He acknowledged the overall crypto market’s current lack of strong directional momentum, describing its recent nature as “slow and choppy.” However, the analyst previously noted CRV’s break above the $0.45 price level as a crucial initial sign that suggested bullish momentum was building. He believes the chart structure could now confirm an emerging “round bottom” formation, a pattern often interpreted by technical analysts as potentially occurring ahead of more significant upside price movement.
