Is Bitcoin (BTC) Poised For A Q2 Recovery? Analyst Points To 2017 Similarities

Altcoins See Q2 Opening Crash On Binance

Multiple altcoins saw a peculiar start to Q2 after their price tanked on Binance on Tuesday morning. The crypto community raised the alarm after Solana-based memecoin and AI Agent token Act I: The AI Prophecy (ACT) plunged around 50% in less than an hour.

The cryptocurrency, which once had a market capitalization of $722 million, has moved sideways for most of March, hovering between the $0.18-$0.19 price range until today. In 30 minutes, ACT crashed from the $0.189 mark to the $0.087 level, registering a 53% fall.

Similarly, the DEXE, KAVA, DF, HIPPO, BANANAS31, LUMIA, TST, and QUICK tokens also recorded a sudden price drop, losing between 10% and 35% of their value in an hour.

ACT’s team acknowledged the incident, stating, “Dear ACT community, we want to assure you that we’re fully aware of the current situation. Our team is actively investigating and working collaboratively with all relevant parties to address this matter.” The post also noted they had begun developing a response plan alongside their trusted partners.

Analyst Altcoin Sherpa suggested that a price bounce for ACT seems likely but noted that “ppl might realize that they don’t really want to hold this coin and view this as a forced rebalance event. Nobody buying. Nobody selling.”

No April Fool’s Joke

As Binance posted about a different April Fool’s joke, investors started to speculate what caused the sudden bleeding, with some joking that the prank had gone too far. The crypto community guessed that Wintermute was responsible for the Altcoin massacre, as it reportedly liquidated several of its positions today.

Nonetheless, the trading firm’s CEO, Evgeny Gaevoy, denied the rumors, stating, “Not us fwiw, but also curious about that postmortem.”

Meanwhile, Lookonchain suggested that Binance’s recent update of its leverage and margin tiers on several altcoins, including ACT, could have been the reason for the token crash.

Six hours later, Binance Customer Support replied to Wu Blockchain’s report, revealing that the reason for the dump was that three VIP users cross-sold tokens worth 514,000 USDT in the spot market and a non-VIP user transferred a large amount of ACT from other platforms and sold 540,000 USDT worth of the token in a short period.

As a result, the cryptocurrency’s price dropped, which led some users to close their futures contracts, triggering the decline of other altcoins. The crypto exchange pointed out that they recently took “the initiative to take preventive measures to adjust leverage multiples downward.”

“Binance Contracts has recently issued consecutive adjustment announcements for the ACTUSDT perpetual contract, during which there was no market movement and no active reduction of any user’s position,” the post detailed.

Binance added that it will continue to investigate the incident and update the relevant details if there is any news, concluding that the crypto market has been volatile recently and asking investors to exercise caution.

Rubmar Garcia

Rubmar is a writer and translator who has been a crypto enthusiast for the past four years. Her goal as a writer is to create informative, complete, and easily understandable pieces accessible to those entering the crypto space. After learning about cryptocurrencies in 2019, Rubmar became curious about the world of possibilities the industry offered, quickly learning that financial freedom was at the palm of her hand with the developing technology.

From a young age, Rubmar was curious about how languages work, finding special interest in wordplay and the peculiarities of dialects. Her curiosity grew as she became an avid reader in her teenage years. She explored freedom and new words through her favorite books, which shaped her view of the world. Rubmar acquired the necessary skills for in-depth research and analytical thinking at university, where she studied Literature and Linguistics. Her studies have given her a sharp perspective on several topics and allowed her to turn every stone in her investigations.

In 2019, she first dipped her toes in the crypto industry when a friend introduced her to Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, but it wasn’t until 2020 that she started to dive into the depth of the industry. As Rubmar began to understand the mechanics of the crypto sphere, she saw a new world yet to be explored.

At the beginning of her crypto voyage, she discovered a new system that allowed her to have control over her finances. As a young adult of the 21st century, Rubmar has faced the challenges of the traditional banking system and the restrictions of fiat money.

After the failure of her home country’s economy, the limitations of traditional finances became clear. The bureaucratic, outdated structure made her feel hopeless and powerless amid an aggressive and distorted system created by hyperinflation. However, learning about decentralization and self-custody opened a realm of opportunities. Cryptocurrencies allowed her to experience financial control for the first time and expand her financial education.

Moreover, the peculiar nature of the crypto community sparked Rubmar’s curiosity about the other layers of the industry. As a result, she found a particular interest in discovering the diverse perspectives of investors, market watchers, experts, and developers. Her attempts to better understand the crypto space made her realize the strong links of the community with other industries, enriching her perspective of the sector. As someone who spends most of her day online, Rubmar enjoys finding the points where the crypto world meets with her other passions and hobbies ­–or her favorite memes.

In her free time, she usually finds joy in different art forms. As a child, she enlisted in every extra-curricular activity in her hometown, including music classes, dancing, jewelry making, and the local chorus. Despite her many attempts to learn different instruments, Rubmar only knows how to play the xylophone, which she played for 7 years in her school’s marching band.

She also has a passion for learning new languages and cultures, having set the goal to learn another six languages ­– currently attempting to learn Italian and Korean. Scrapbooking, paper crafting, and bookbinding are her biggest interests outside of work, constantly taking classes and attending workshops to learn new techniques. The rest of her free time is spent stressing over football matches and transfer market news or feeding cats –hers or stray.

In summary, Rubmar seeks to present entertaining and educational pieces to be enjoyed by everybody, aiming to report on the latest news and offer a unique perspective while adding a meme or a pun whenever possible.
