The Japanese government has just officially passed a draft amendment to the law, classifying Bitcoin and other crypto assets as "financial products" under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act (FIEA) – in the same group as stocks and securities.

Instead of only considering crypto as a means of payment as before, Japan will implement stricter regulations: banning insider trading, requiring annual reports, increasing penalties to up to 10 years in prison, and higher fines.

Japan is doing what many countries will follow: Making crypto a part of the traditional financial system.

If this trend spreads, then Crypto will no longer be a "wild west" but rather a playground for organizations.

On April 2, 2026, Grayscale officially submitted Amendment No.1 (S-1/A) to the SEC to convert the Grayscale Bittensor Trust (GTAO) from an OTC trust fund into a spot ETF listed on NYSE Arca.

The real significance of this move: This is the most important step ever for TAO (the token of Bittensor – a decentralized AI network) to legally and more easily access traditional capital. American securities investors will be able to buy GTAO through regular brokerage accounts, without needing to buy, store, or manage TAO on a blockchain wallet. Increased liquidity, transparency, and accessibility for both individual and institutional investors.

Clearly reflecting the convergence trend between AI and Crypto: Grayscale is pushing forward products related to the hottest narrative today – Decentralized Intelligence.

Currently: GTAO is trading OTC at ~8.00 USD (4/2/2026) AUM ~11.5 million USD Management fee 2.50%/year Although still needing to wait for SEC approval (which may take months), the submission of S-1/A shows that Grayscale is very serious about Bittensor.

Is this a catalyst that will help TAO attract more large capital flows in 2026? What do you think? Will TAO be the "Bitcoin of AI" or just a temporary narrative? #CryptoETF #AICryptoRevolution

Q1/2026 shows that the crypto market is very active in name, mainly 90% is leveraged gambling, only 10% is real trading. This is characteristic of a young, highly speculative market — more like a casino than a stock exchange.

Similarly, in 2025 (derivative products also use a very large ratio, about 80-90% according to CoinGlass reports), the situation in Q1/2026 continues this trend, with no clear signs of a more significant shift.

🔹 Tether has confirmed that they have chosen a Big Four auditing firm to conduct a "full independent financial statement audit" for USDT, including examining assets, reserves, and the internal controls that the company uses for financial reporting.

🔹 This is the first time Tether has undertaken a full audit of this kind after many years of only publishing periodic attestations — a mechanism that many critics argue is not sufficiently transparent.

😀 This is a positive signal that helps the market and partners view the transparency and reliability of USDT 😀

If in the past everyone was cautious about Crypto due to high volatility, now crypto can serve as collateral.

The CFTC has issued regulations allowing Bitcoin, Ethereum, and stablecoins to be used as collateral in derivative transactions.

But it's not just a matter of "wanting to use it":
- It only applies to transactions that have gone through clearing (with a guaranteed intermediary)
- Must prove: sufficient liquidity, low risk, continuous monitoring & reporting
- Specifically, not all types of Stablecoins can be used.

In the past, when mentioning 'altcoin season', many people immediately thought of a period where almost every altcoin surged simultaneously. But the market in 2026 is showing a different picture.

Instead of a prolonged altcoin season, the market tends to rotate very quickly between different narratives. One sector may explode in a few days or weeks, after which the flow of money shifts to another area.

For example:

- At one point, AI projects attract capital.
- Then, the money moves to memecoin or gaming.
- Then it rotates to other areas within the crypto ecosystem.

In other words, the altseason of 2026 may not be 'everything rises together', but rather the continuous movement of money between different opportunities.

With this observation, the ability to recognize narratives early and adapt quickly may be more important than ever for us, right?

Currently, the price range of $76,000 - $77,000 has significant liquidity and may get swept clean. However, the price range of $70,000 - $73,000 has a large amount of liquidation clusters formed (with double the liquidity compared to the above level), making this the "likely" area to be the next target.

TAO has exceeded $280 (currently close to $300), money is flowing into the entire ecosystem of TAO, not just the TAO token; many subnet tokens in the ecosystem are also surging.

Usually, the subnet of Bittensor pumps stronger than Bittensor (TAO) and follows this method:
1️⃣ TAO starts to rise
2️⃣ capital flows pay attention to the ecosystem
3️⃣ traders hunt for small subnets
4️⃣ subnet pumps stronger than TAO

BTC surged again to over $74,000, liquidating another $274 million! A total of $1 billion in cryptocurrency has been liquidated over the weekend!

Currently, the price range of $74,000 - $77,000 has significant liquidity, above this level could be completely cleared.

However, at the level of $68,000 - $71,000, there is a huge liquidity area with double the amount of liquidations, making this a 'high probability' area that needs to be monitored more frequently.

Ethereum Foundation sells 5,000 ETH — what is happening?
The Ethereum Foundation has just completed a transaction selling 5,000 ETH (approximately 10.2 million USD) to BitMine Immersion Technologies.
Notably, this transaction was conducted OTC, not through an exchange. Therefore, this transaction does not exert direct selling pressure on the market.
The proceeds from the sale of ETH will be used to:
• support research and development
• fund projects within the ecosystem
• maintain the operations of the Ethereum Foundation
Conversely, the fact that a company like BitMine is buying a large amount of ETH also indicates that institutional interest in Ethereum continues.

Strong buying support (bid): Around the area $69,000 – $68,700.
The price is stuck: Sitting between the liquidity zone of the "sharks".

Strong volatility ahead: When this price range is broken, the speed of price movement will be very fast. 😉

Dogecoin is again "running ahead of the news" 🐶

Elon Musk just announced that the X Money payment system of X will launch in April. Immediately after, Dogecoin surged strongly.

The reason is quite familiar to the community: The market is starting to speculate that DOGE may be integrated into X Money.

Interestingly, there has been no confirmation that DOGE will be used, but there are rumors that the price has already increased.

You’re probably very familiar with this pattern 😎😎😎😎

Arthur Hayes: “Bitcoin is great... but I'm still waiting”

While many people are shouting “buy the dip”, the early crypto mogul Arthur Hayes has a rather calm reaction: If I had $1 to invest right now... I wouldn't buy Bitcoin. I would wait. Bitcoin doesn't just depend on crypto... it depends on the Fed.

According to Hayes, Bitcoin often rises sharply when: the Fed turns on the money printing machine. And when: interest rates are high, USD liquidity is tight, the crypto market usually isn't very happy.

Hayes also warns that if geopolitical tensions escalate
(for example, the Middle East), the market could sell off both stocks and crypto. Bitcoin could even drop below $60k before rising again.

According to data from Arkham Intelligence, the Bhutanese government has just transferred about 100 BTC (~11.8 million USD) from the national reserve to another wallet.

Notable points:
- This is not the first time Bhutan has moved BTC; previously, when Bhutan transferred BTC on a similar scale, part of it was sold through trading firms.
- Bhutan often breaks down sell orders of $5–10M each time to avoid causing market volatility.

After recent transactions, Bhutan's reserves are around ~5,400 BTC.

Bhutan has accumulated about 13,000 BTC from mining since 2019 thanks to hydropower, and part of the profits from BTC has been used for civil servant salaries, healthcare, and social programs.

The market reversed after the geopolitical shock: Panic passed quickly, risk-on returned

Quick comparison: Yesterday vs Today

Oil
Yesterday: oil rose to ~110 USD due to concerns about the Middle East war.
Today: Brent Crude Oil and West Texas Intermediate fell sharply (~4–10%).
The market is in a mindset that the supply disruption scenario has not yet occurred.

Gold
Gold around ~5,150–5,170 USD/oz, slightly up ~1%, still holding a safe-haven position but no longer in strong panic.

US Stocks
Yesterday: S&P 500 and NASDAQ Composite fell, CBOE Volatility Index rose → risk-off.
Today: stocks rebounded, VIX fell sharply → risk-on returned.

Crypto
Interesting point: Bitcoin remains around ~69k. Crypto did not drop during the panic, but it hasn't pumped when the market rebounded → a sign of money inflow accumulating.

In summary:
The market is shifting from panic selling to a more stable state

Why did oil prices drop sharply today?
On March 10, Brent Crude Oil and West Texas Intermediate fell sharply by about 7–10%, after spiking nearly 120 USD/barrel in the previous session.
3 main reasons:
1️⃣ The market is less worried about war
President Donald Trump stated that the conflict related to Iran may soon come to an end. This reduces concerns about supply disruptions through the Strait of Hormuz – the route that transports about 20% of the world's oil.

2️⃣ The previous spike was seen as excessive
Oil prices spiked sharply due to geopolitical panic, so when the news calmed down, investors quickly took profits.

3️⃣ Defensive positions were closed
Many funds had bought oil to hedge against war risks, and as tensions eased, these positions were unwound → prices fell quickly.
In summary:
This is a correction after the market priced in too many war risks. However, the Middle East remains very sensitive, so oil may still fluctuate significantly according to geopolitical news.
