21Shares launched the first U.S. spot Polkadot (DOT) ETF on March 6, 2025, backed by $11 million and charging a 0.30% fee—marking a pivotal expansion of SEC-approved crypto ETFs beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum, reflecting growing institutional adoption and regulatory maturation.

Bitcoin plunged sharply, and Ethereum faces growing bearish sentiment amid new research skepticism; BlackRock imposed withdrawal limits due to rising liquidity concerns in the private credit market.

Ethereum's rebound faces resistance at $2,150 and $2,350–$2,450; failure to sustain gains risks retesting $1,800 and potentially falling below $1,500. Daily structure remains bearish, with moving averages capping upside. Positive funding rates signal recovering long leverage—but only a controlled breakout above resistance confirms sustainable bullish momentum.

Bitcoin surged near $74,000 amid geopolitical shocks and strong spot ETF inflows; Ethereum climbed to ~$2,060 with declining exchange reserves supporting bullish sentiment; Cardano’s ADA fell 7% to $0.26 as whales redistributed 230M tokens, signaling weakening confidence and increased market supply.

ETH traders may see a price rally next week followed by a weekend dip; the $1,900 level is being assessed as a potential buy zone.

Bullish forecasts nearly doubled volatility for Bitcoin and Ethereum in February; meanwhile, CleanSpark holds the highest short interest among crypto firms with over $2 billion market cap as of mid-February.
