Crypto Still Holding... But For How Long?

31.03.2026 Liquidity is draining as oil and the dollar move higher

DAILY MARKET OVERVIEW

Crypto Still Under Pressure

👋 Hey, Crypto Enthusiasts! Bitcoin holds steady while macro risks continue to build

Crypto continues to feel macro pressure, even though BTC has managed to hold above $60k for nearly two months, which is honestly impressive.

But pressure is building.

Oil is holding above $100, the Dollar is rising, and both are pulling liquidity away from risk assets.

👉 That combination is rarely bullish.

Right now, expectations are for this pressure to continue on a global scale.

The effects of higher oil prices haven’t fully hit yet, but they likely will in the coming weeks and months.

👉 And that could push BTC toward the $50k range.

An area where a potential bottom could start forming.

Until then, sentiment remains in extreme fear, with very little demand coming in.

Even Strategy appears to have paused BTC buying recently, removing a key source of support.

The broader environment isn’t helping either.

Policy direction is unclear, and with Donald Trump, markets are struggling to price what comes next.

👉 Uncertainty keeps capital on the sidelines.

At the same time, the Dollar remains strong and is building a solid upside structure, continuing to drain liquidity from risk assets.

So for now, the setup remains unchanged:

  • Pressure is building.

  • Liquidity is tightening.

  • Demand is weak.

🧘 And the best move remains patience.

Quantum Threat To Bitcoin Sooner Than Expected? 🤔

Google just published new research suggesting quantum computers could break crypto security sooner than previously thought.

⁉️ And the reason is pretty simple: the required computing power is dropping fast.

Right now, Bitcoin and most blockchains rely on elliptic curve cryptography to secure wallets and transactions, and it’s supposed to be extremely hard to break. But that assumption is starting to weaken.

👉 New estimates show the resources needed have dropped by around 20x, meaning what once felt far off is now getting closer.

And this introduces a new kind of risk. 

  • Not just attacks on old wallets, but so-called on-spend attacks, where transactions are targeted while still pending in the mempool. In other words, funds could be attacked during a transaction, not just after.

Timing is what makes this serious. Bitcoin’s block time is about 10 minutes, and Google suggests future quantum machines could operate within that window, which changes the threat model completely.

👉 The proposed solution is post-quantum cryptography (PQC), a new type of cryptography designed to resist quantum attacks. Google is targeting 2029 for a full transition and is pushing the industry to prepare now.

It’s not just a crypto problem either, since quantum computing could impact everything from finance to national security.

Of course, this isn’t happening tomorrow, but the margin for error is getting smaller.

So the real question is: will crypto upgrade in time, or is this risk approaching faster than expected ❓

Benjamin Cowen – Stocks Have Dropped 9% - What's Next? (31.03.2026 Summary)

Stocks have dropped around 9%, which Cowen expected. Now the question is what happens next.

Key Points

  • The drop isn’t over yet, it could go a bit deeper (around 10–15%)

  • Most likely scenario:
    → Market finds a bottom in April
    → Then we get a short-term bounce (relief rally)

  • That bounce can go two ways:
    → Weak bounce → lower high → continue down
    → Strong bounce → maybe retest highs → then drop

  • Big picture signal:
    → Stocks are weakening vs gold, like before past crashes (2008, 1973)

  • No matter what:
    → This is probably not the final bottom yet

Final Takeaway
Expect a bounce soon, but overall trend still looks down before things fully reset.

Paul Barron – CLARITY & Privacy Final Battle? (31.03.2026 Summary)

The Clarity Act is close, and the fight is simple: banks want control, crypto wants freedom.

Key Points

  • The main battle is banks vs crypto, with banks trying to limit crypto’s growth and protect their position

  • The biggest issue is stablecoin yield, since crypto wants users to earn interest, while banks are strongly against it

  • Time is running out, so any deal will likely be rushed and not perfect

  • Self-custody is critical, because without it crypto loses its main purpose

  • Privacy is a concern, as more regulation could mean more control over users

Final Takeaway
No, this is not the final battle for privacy, but it is a key turning point. The Clarity Act will likely end in a compromise where banks succeed in limiting parts of crypto like stablecoin yield, but crypto keeps its core feature, self-custody. The bigger fight around privacy and control will continue beyond this bill.
