#BTC Price manipulation of BTC. Here is the information obtained from platform X:
Market Maker (MM) Update: Coinbase and Binance send 520 BTC to Wintermute to force (flush) the level of $81,800. In my opinion (IMO), they will seek the liquidity level (ow level) at $81,000.
⸻
Explanation: • Market Maker (MM): These are participants who provide liquidity to the market by placing buy and sell orders to facilitate trading. • Wintermute: It is a company known for acting as a market maker in the crypto market, with access to large liquidity. • Flush $81,800: “To give a flush” in this context means to force the price to cross a certain level, likely to trigger stop orders or seek liquidity. • 520 BTC sent: The author points out that 520 bitcoins were sent from Coinbase and Binance to wallets controlled by Wintermute — indicating a possible coordinated action to move the price. • $81,000 as “ow level”: The term “ow level” is probably an informal way or a typo for “low level” or liquidity level — meaning a price level where there are many pending orders, usually stops.
⸻
What does this suggest for the trader?
The author believes that large players (Coinbase, Binance, Wintermute) are trying to push the price of Bitcoin down to $81,000 to capture liquidity (e.g., stop-loss orders from traders who bought at higher levels).
$GUN will be listed on March 31, 2025. Relevant data and what prices can it reach?
On March 31, at 13 UTC, the cryptocurrency $GUN (Gunzilla Games) will be listed on Binance (and other exchanges), which is a native token of the Gunzilla Games ecosystem, a Layer 1 platform built on the GUNZ blockchain, a subnet of Avalanche, designed for AAA games. The total supply is 10 billion GUN tokens. Gunzilla Games is an independent AAA game development studio, known for "Off The Grid" (OTG), a cyberpunk battle royale released in early access for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, and "Technocore", a stealth game for iOS and Android. The project integrates blockchain to allow the exchange of in-game items as NFTs, creating a player-driven economy.
There is a distribution via Binance Launchpool, where 400 million GUN (4% of the total) are being distributed to users staking BNB, FDUSD, and USDC between March 28 and March 31, 2025. Private round tokens (32.5% of the total, or 3.25 billion GUN) have a vesting period of 12 months with an 18-month cliff, reducing immediate sell pressure.
Now let's get to the point: what is the price forecast for the crypto?
In the first 24/48 hours, research suggests that the listing price may vary between $0.02 (minimum, based on private sale estimates) and $0.50 (maximum, considering hype), peaking at $1.00 (in case of high demand) with an average of $0.45. Between 1 and 3 months after its listing, the expectation is that the price will range between $0.40 and $0.80. In the long term, if the crypto is adopted massively by the community, it could reach $5.00 (information provided by "How High Can Binance Launchpool’s Gunz $GUN Gaming Token Go?").

I never buy a crypto at the exact moment of its listing, to analyze the behavior of the crypto's values before starting my operation.
I have done my research, reached my conclusions, and I will operate with the aforementioned coin on the day of its listing.
And you?
Attention: this is not financial advice, I am not recommending the purchase of the crypto. Do your own research, reach your own conclusions, and if you feel confident and prepared, it could be a good opportunity.
#BTC - Why is April 2 important for the market? Possibility of decline
Starting from April 2, 2025, financial and cryptocurrency markets face a scenario of uncertainty due to the implementation of the 'reciprocal' tariffs announced by the President of the United States, Donald Trump. These tariffs consist of applying the same rates to imported products that the countries of origin impose on American products, affecting nations such as Canada, Mexico, and China.
In addition to the 'reciprocal' tariffs that will come into effect on April 2, 2025, President Donald Trump announced the implementation of additional tariffs specific to strategic sectors. These measures include tariffs of approximately 25% on imports of automobiles, semiconductors, and pharmaceutical products from the European Union.
The expectation of a global trade war has generated volatility in the markets. The price of Bitcoin, for example, has fallen about 25% since its all-time high of nearly US$43,835,546,791,100 at the beginning of the year, trading below US$43,835,546,798,400 on March 21. This trend of devaluation is attributed to concerns about economic growth and US trade policies.
Moreover, geopolitical uncertainties, such as tensions in the Middle East and Asia, and the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, increase caution among investors, negatively affecting the appetite for risk assets.
In light of this scenario, the outlook for financial and cryptocurrency markets starting April 2 is bearish, reflecting investors' apprehension regarding the potential economic consequences of the new tariffs and global tensions.
Why is today a very important day for the market? Stay tuned.
Today, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) of the Federal Reserve (Fed) of the United States will conclude its two-day meeting and announce its decision on interest rates at 3 PM (Brasília time), followed by a press conference with Chairman Jerome Powell at 3:30 PM.
According to the CME Group’s FedWatch Tool, there is a 99% probability that the Fed will keep interest rates in the current range of 4.25% to 4.50% at this meeting. Market attention will be focused on the updated economic projections and Powell's statements, looking for signs of future interest rate cuts, especially amid uncertainties related to President Donald Trump's trade policies.
Historically, interest rate cuts tend to increase market liquidity, encouraging investors to seek higher-risk assets, such as cryptocurrencies. On the other hand, maintaining rates may lead to a more cautious stance among investors regarding these assets. Currently, Bitcoin is trading around US$ 83.476, with a slight increase of 0.0064% in the last 24 hours.
Although today’s decision is unlikely to bring immediate changes, expectations about future interest rate cuts may influence the cryptocurrency market. Investors will be attentive to the Fed's signals regarding the future path of monetary policy, which could impact the appetite for digital assets in the coming months.
What to expect for next week in the crypto market?
US Interest Rates x TRUMP x Trade War - market manipulation
Everyone already knows (or should know) that TRUMP is manipulating the market in order to lower interest rates to renegotiate the American debt.
For those who are still uninformed, the President of the United States is imposing tariffs on products from various countries, with the aim of instilling fear of an economic recession in society and the financial market, reducing consumption and inflation, thereby enabling a decrease in interest rates.
In this scenario, if he can convince the FED to lower interest rates, he will have the opportunity to renegotiate debts at better prices.
And what will next week be like?
On March 19, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) will announce its decision on interest rates and release economic projections, followed by a press conference.
If interest rates decrease, both the traditional market and the cryptocurrency market could see a good rise.
However, don’t get too excited yet.
The probability of an interest rate cut next week is approximately 2 - 3%, based on market expectations and expert opinions.
That is, according to data updated on March 14, 2025, the financial market indicates a 98% probability that the Federal Reserve (Fed) will maintain the current interest rate range of 4.25% to 4.50%, which is not exciting news.
This expectation is corroborated by the CME FedWatch tool, which analyzes the probabilities of changes in the Fed's rate based on the prices of Fed Funds futures.
Although TRUMP has shaken the market, it has not yet been sufficient for his intended purpose.
So buckle up, and hold on tight to the volatility, because it seems that next week we will not have good rises in the market.
Today, March 13, 2025, Binance Coin (BNB) is in the spotlight in the cryptocurrency market due to a significant appreciation of 3.7% in the last 24 hours.
One of the main factors driving this increase is the announcement of the hard fork called "Pascal," scheduled for March 20. This update aims to enhance the functionalities of smart contracts and improve integration with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), strengthening the infrastructure of the BNB Chain.
In addition, Binance, the platform associated with BNB, received a record investment of $2 billion from MGX, an artificial intelligence and advanced technology investor based in Abu Dhabi. This is the largest investment ever made in a cryptocurrency company, reflecting investor confidence in the growth potential and innovation of Binance and the BNB ecosystem.
These recent developments reinforce BNB's position in the market and highlight its central role in advancing blockchain and cryptocurrency technologies.
$BTC - May more volatility come. Now it's China's turn.
China recently announced (on today's date) the imposition of tariffs on certain agricultural and food products from Canada. This measure is a retaliation against the tariffs that Canada implemented in October on Chinese electric vehicles, steel, and aluminum. Starting March 20, China will impose a 100% tariff on Canadian imports of canola oil, oil cakes, and peas, and a 25% tax on aquatic products and pork from Canada.
These trade tensions have significant repercussions in the cryptocurrency market. Recently, cryptocurrency derivatives traders faced over $738,251,558,891 billion in liquidations within 24 hours, as fears of a potential trade war affected the markets. More than 87% of these liquidations were from long positions, following a volatile start to March, where double-digit losses on March 4 erased significant gains made just days earlier.
Bitcoin (BTC) performed poorly in February, retreating 17.39% amid the tariff war initiated by U.S. President Donald Trump. This was its worst monthly result since June 2022.
Furthermore, the imposition of trade tariffs by U.S. President Donald Trump on Canada, Mexico, and China has heightened investor concerns about a potential global trade war. This situation has had an impact on stock markets across Europe, Asia, and the U.S. itself, with cryptocurrencies being particularly affected by the decreased interest in high-risk investments.
The recent tariffs imposed by China on Canada, coupled with global trade tensions, have contributed to volatility and selling pressure in the cryptocurrency market, negatively affecting prices and increasing uncertainty among investors.
For those who still don't understand the current phase of the market: pure manipulation.
The media publishes news that would cause BTC to soar, and the price of the coin falls, to liquidate those who entered leveraged.
It's not just the institutional players who are manipulating the market; there is certainly also political influence with exchanges that are moving values from their wallets to perform the pump and dump, thus taking advantage of the naivety of investors. It almost appears to be criminal what they are doing.
However, the moment is good to take advantage of the drops.
Below is a post on X that highlights a small part of how the manipulation is occurring.
Keep emotions in check, and always do your research before investing. DYOR.
The lack of honesty of the creators of crypto #ORAI (Oraichain) is so great that they don't even try to disguise the manipulation of the price of the currency in the order book.
There's no point in even buying it thinking it will make any difference because they are the ones who will establish the value of the crypto, not supply and demand.
Whenever they want, they can raise and lower the value, damaging the assets and investments of those who eventually believed in the honesty and transparency of the project.
#BNB is one of the tokens that, despite having suffered considerable declines along with the BTC drop, has shown a great recovery in its value following the changes in the price of bitcoin.
It has been a good token to buy during this period of bitcoin's laterality. Buy when it falls and sell when it rises.
When buying #BNB during a small BTC drop, you will notice a considerable rise and recovery of #BNB when, following the rise in the price, albeit small, of bitcoin.
#BNB has shown itself to be a crypto with high recovery power when compared to the market variation relative to bitcoin.
I have taken advantage of this period of BTC variations to make alternating and sometimes leveraged purchases and sales of #BNB , what about you?
Attention: this is not a financial recommendation. Study the asset and come to your own conclusions. Do your research. DYOR.
Although the crypto #TST was created in a controversial way, it has resisted, considerably, the variations of BTC.
I recall that this token was created by the founder and former CEO of Binance, Zhao, as an example of a crypto quote, having released the video of its creation on DNA X's page. After an explosion in the value of the currency, Zhao was forced to delete the video, and clarify that it did not belong to the BNB Chain.
I remember that it is a meme coin, created to test the crypto creation platform, therefore receiving the name TEST TOKEN (TST).
Although Zhao stated that the explosion in the price of the currency occurred due to his “unintentional” influence, the fact is that this was a primary factor in the explosion in its price immediately after its creation.
However, the value of crypto, after the big rise, only continues to fall.
Did you know that people's irises are being scanned in some countries in exchange for cryptocurrencies?
It's not really news that the traditional financial system is being replaced and updated by cryptocurrencies and stablecoins.
Interestingly, in some countries, the company Worldcom (crypto WLD), co-founded by OpaenAI CEO Sam Altman, has been performing iris scans in several countries (Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, the United States, Germany, etc.) and offering cryptocurrencies in exchange for biometric data.
The iris is a unique and permanent biometric identifier, which means that, unlike passwords or other data that can be changed if compromised, once iris data is exposed, there is no way to replace it. This can lead to serious problems of identity theft and misuse of information. 
Furthermore, the collection and storage of this data by companies could result in the creation of a centralized database of identities, raising concerns about mass surveillance and unauthorized use of the information.
While you sell, they buy. What's happening with bitcoin? #BTC
The chart below suggests that Bitcoin, throughout 2024 and 2025, is undergoing a redistribution, where smaller investors are selling to larger investors. This could be a sign of a shift in the market, with institutions accumulating Bitcoin while retail investors take profits or exit the market (panic-selling).
In addition, although the crypto market operates 24 hours a day, it is interesting to note that on weekends the traditional markets do not operate - this is an indication of possible price manipulation on Saturdays and Sundays (when there is a large variation in prices while the main markets are closed). In my personal opinion, having a sharp drop on weekends is manipulation.
However, we cannot rule out the influence of TRUMP's decision to increase import taxes on products from Mexico, Canada and China, with a correction of the currency, which could eventually reach values below 80k, which seriously affects altcoins.
Macroeconomics and its influence on markets, especially highly volatile cryptocurrencies, is always full of surprises.
Let's see how it will play out over the course of the week.
According to X's Ondo Finance profile, it will be holding Wall Street 2.0 on February 6th, “bringing together the biggest names in traditional finance and Blockchain”.
Will the price of ONDO rise with the event?
Please note: this is not a financial tip, I am not recommending the purchase of the currency. For informational purposes only. DYOR.
Possible fraud - coinesbit -#ELONMUSK - #BTC - profitable strategy.
The news circulated that ELON MUSK had posted on his X profile, and then deleted, the information that coinesbit had higher cryptocurrency prices than BINACE.
Anyone who bought on BINACE and sold on coinesbit would make a profit of around 10% with this simple operation.
However, X users reported that this is a fraud. Some reported that coinesbit is blocking users' assets, not allowing them to withdraw them, nor solving the problem.
Be very careful, do not believe what they say without first doing your research. There is always some crook wanting to take advantage of the inexperienced.
Your money is your asset, it is your livelihood, do not be naive. DYOR.
Some brokers are forcing the price of BTC down by selling the broker's own coins - mainly Binance - to liquidate those who bought BTC in leveraged longs.
This way, the broker would not have to pay the leverage amounts, and would gain more liquidity in its cash, before a new rise in the coins.
On the other hand, other brokers, such as Coinbase, are buying crypto at lower prices.
#Rune - For RUNE holders, keep an eye on THORChain's movements, possible disaster?
The RUNE cryptocurrency is the native token of THORChain, a decentralized network that facilitates the exchange of digital assets between different blockchains in a non-custodial manner.
What you need to know:
On 1/24/2025, THORChain suspended withdrawals of Bitcoin (BTC) and ether (ETH) in its lending and savings programs to avoid a possible risk of insolvency.
The network node operators proposed and implemented a 90-day pause in the early hours of the Asian morning on Friday.
If you have the asset in your wallet, get informed. DYOR.
If you believe in the project, and that its developers will be able to successfully overcome the obstacle, it would be an opportunity to buy it at a low. However, it is certain that a new high for the coin will take a long time, given the distrust generated in the community.
#Anime – Interesting fact about the difference in listing values on different exchanges and their maximum peaks.
ANIME was launched today on several cryptocurrency exchanges. It is interesting to note that the maximum value reached on each exchange was different.
On MEXC, it reached a maximum peak of 0.23. On KCEX, the maximum value was 1.500. On BYBIT, it reached 0.12947. KUCOIN – 0.1239 and BINANCE - 0.1070. On all of them, the value plummeted.
Gone are the days when listing on a particular exchange made such a difference in price, given the competition and the number of users.
For those who bought at the first listing, at high prices, remember that the altseason hasn't even started yet, and BTC hasn't even skyrocketed. If you have studied the currency, liked the project, and believe in the asset, it is worth considering whether it is worth the risk to keep the crypto or sell it. Always do your own research. Information is never too much. DYOR
