DENT and FIO both got hit by Binance delistings (the fastest way to kill a micro-cap). Infinex is bleeding from token unlock pressure as Patron sale vesting schedules release supply into a thin market.

What Shaped the Market

Goldman Sachs Files for a Bitcoin Income ETF

Goldman's first-ever crypto ETF filing landed April 14. The fund won't hold BTC directly, it buys spot Bitcoin ETFs and sells covered calls to generate yield. Basically the JEPI playbook for Bitcoin. Launch could come in late June.

Historically, rising oil prices strengthen Bitcoin’s inflation hedge narrative, but in the short term, they often trigger risk-off behavior across markets.

Bitcoin Tapped $76K, Then Slid Right Back Down

BTC broke $76K on Tuesday, then faded below $74K by end of session. Same ceiling, two months running. Meanwhile, Binance perp funding rates have been negative for 46 straight days with rising open interest. It’s a crowded-short setup that historically precedes sharp reversals.

ETH/BTC Ratio Bounces Off 2026 Lows

The ETH/BTC ratio hit a three-month high near 0.0313 after bottoming out at 0.028 in February. Stablecoin supply on Ethereum reached $180B, which is 60% of the global market. Fundamentals keep improving, while price still sits 50%+ below its 52-week high.

Iran Peace Talks Lifted Everything, Briefly

US–Iran ceasefire talks sent BTC up 5% and ETH up 7%. Total crypto market cap rose to $2.6T. By last Thursday, profit-taking had trimmed the move. Crypto joined the rally but didn't lead it, so the S&P 500 set another record.
