Radar Crypto | Saturday, April 25, 2026
Bitcoin retreats slightly to US$ 77.767 this Saturday, consolidating the week's 3.5% gains. The market operates in technical neutrality with US$ 2.59 trillion in total capitalization, while BTC dominance remains solid at 60.1%. It's that typical weekend session: low volume, contained movements, and investors digesting a positive week for cryptocurrencies.
The market structure shows signs of healthy consolidation. The Fear & Greed Index marks 47 points — neutral territory that historically precedes more defined moves. Neither euphoria nor panic. Exactly the scenario that smart money prefers to position without crowd pressure.
Bitcoin: Consolidation Above US$ 76K
Bitcoin is doing what it should: consolidating above the US$ 76.350 support without rush. RSI at 61.70 suggests there's still room for upside before entering overbought territory. The technical reading is clear: price above the 20 and 50 period moving averages confirms short-term bullish trend.
Análise Técnica — Bitcoin
What stands out is the macro structure still bearish — SMA50 remains 15.3% below the SMA200. This means any strong rally will encounter resistance in the US$ 84.758 region. For now, the focus is on immediate resistance at US$ 78.645.
The decrease in volatility is not a problem. It's a sign that the market is maturing the decision on the next move. With Bitcoin ETFs registering US$ 933 million in weekly inflows according to CoinDesk, institutional demand remains consistent.
Ethereum: Stuck Between Support and Resistance
Ethereum is literally pinned to the US$ 2.316 support — exactly where it closed today. Neutral RSI at 45.40 gives no clear hint of direction. The technical situation mirrors Bitcoin: short-term bullish trend (above SMAs 20 and 50), but macro structure still bearish with SMA50 21% below SMA200.
Análise Técnica — Ethereum
The news of Bitmine buying US$ 236 million in ether could be a catalyst. Tom Lee calling ETH a "store of value in times of war" resonates with the current geopolitical context. But this hasn't reflected in the price yet — which may mean the move comes next week.
Ethereum needs to break US$ 2.378 with volume to confirm that consolidation is over. Otherwise, the US$ 1.983 support comes back on the radar.
Asset Movement
ZBCN leads gains with 18% upside, followed by PENGU (+11.5%) which coincided with token unlock — exactly what analysts warned about "exit liquidity risk". JUP closes the top 3 with 8.5% appreciation.
On the opposite side, H plummets 11.1% leading losses. M retreats 9.2% and SIREN closes at -8.2%. Typical weekend moves: low liquidity amplifies swings.

Macro Context and Flows
The global volume of US$ 129.89 billion in 24h is within normal range for weekend. Investment products in crypto recorded US$ 1.2 billion in weekly inflows — the highest AUM since February, according to CoinTelegraph.
South Korea's KBank partnership with Ripple for international remittances via blockchain shows institutional adoption gaining traction. Meanwhile, in Europe, Banking Circle licensed under MiCA enters the race for bank-backed stablecoins — signs that infrastructure is maturing globally.
The recent CoW Swap hack that resulted in US$ 1.2 million lost via DNS hijacking reminds us that security remains the top priority. As we highlighted at ON3X, the smart contract was secure — the problem was at the domain registrar.
What to Expect Next Week
- Bitcoin testing resistance of US$ 78.645 — breakout would confirm continuation of weekly rally
- Ethereum needs to overcome US$ 2.378 to validate institutional momentum
- Volume returning on Monday will be crucial to define direction
- Monitor if the US$ 933 million in ETF inflows sustain
- Track developments in traditional banking partnerships with blockchain
