Key Takeaways

  • Market Review: BTC and ETH showed a “decline-then-stabilization” recovery pattern throughout March, with institutional allocation focused primarily on BTC and secondarily on ETH. BTC ETFs saw cumulative inflows of approximately $86.8 billion, compared to $12.6 billion for ETH ETFs. The Fear & Greed Index indicated a shift in sentiment from optimism to caution, with risk appetite contracting before gradually recovering.

  • Gate Private Wealth Performance: Overall USDT strategies delivered an average annualized return of 5.7%. Xinghe Smart Investment (USDT) led with a 9.5% one-year return. Interstellar Hedging (USDT) achieved an 18.0% cumulative return with 21 out of 21 profitable cycles, maintaining a 100% win rate. Gravity Hedging (USDT) recorded a maximum drawdown of only 0.01%, highlighting strong stability.

  • Outlook: By late March, tensions in the Strait of Hormuz eased at the margin, with markets leaning toward a short-term disruption scenario. Oil price and inflation shocks are expected to remain contained, supporting stable performance in risk assets. Meanwhile, BTC’s LTH-SOPR has reverted to neutral levels, indicating that profit-taking pressure has largely been absorbed without entering a deep capitulation phase, suggesting the market remains in a recovery rather than a reversal stage.
