Pi NetworkのPIは、過去1週間で他のトップ100の暗号通貨を上回り、価値がほぼ40%増加し、時価総額は17億ドルに達し、47番目に大きな暗号通貨となっています。しかし、コインが暗号交換所で保有されている量が大幅に増加しているため、上昇傾向はすぐに逆転する可能性があり、これは価格訂正の兆候かもしれません。トークンのアンロックの急増も、下落を示す可能性があります。これらの兆候にもかかわらず、一部のコミュニティメンバーは、PIの価値が短期的にさらに増加すると予測しており、3月14日のPi Dayの前に1ドルまたは0.50ドルに達する可能性があるとの憶測があります。
Strategies Focused on Relative Value Outshine Directional Bets Amid Crypto Market Instability
A survey by Presto Research and Otos Data reveals that crypto funds began 2026 with losses and a defensive stance, prompting investors to shift towards relative-value and market-neutral trades due to market uncertainty and price fluctuations. While all liquid crypto hedge funds experienced a 1.49% dip, market-neutral funds gained approximately 1.6%. In a six-month period, these neutral strategies saw nearly a 5% increase, while fundamental funds declined by over 24%. Data suggests that traders adopted a defensive posture without panic, with stress accumulating in pockets rather than triggering widespread liquidation. Given the lack of policy clarity and crypto-specific catalysts, the researchers suggest adaptability will be key for survival in the volatile market. They also highlight that strategies prioritizing relative value are successfully navigating the current market challenges.
Bitwise's Perspective on How Aave Might Contribute to the End of Cryptocurrency Downturn
Despite enduring fragility in Bitcoin's sentiment after a significant dip from its peak price, Matt Hougan, Bitwise's Chief Investment Officer, suggests that decentralized finance (DeFi) could steer the market out of the bear phase. He cites a governance proposal by Aave Labs titled "Aave Will Win" as an example of the new DeFi phase. Aave, along with protocols like Uniswap, operates as serious businesses with substantial revenues. However, DeFi tokens have struggled, largely due to their design as governance tokens without a direct claim on protocol earnings. Hougan notes that Aave's proposal to direct all revenue from its branded products to the DAO treasury may transform the token from a governance-only role to an asset with a direct claim on revenues, potentially leading other assets to follow suit.
Latest Updates on Pi Network (PI) as of February 18
The Pi Network Core Team previously issued a deadline for nodes to upgrade, with the warning that non-compliance could lead to disconnection. Despite the deadline passing, there has been no information about compliance rates or extensions. The team has faced criticism for a lack of transparency and progress, with some members waiting for over seven years to transfer their Pi coins. In addition, the PI token experienced a severe drop in price to $0.1312, but recovered to over $0.20 shortly afterward. An analyst predicts a 500% surge in the token's value. PiScan data reveals a potential easing of selling pressure with a reduction in the number of coins to be unlocked daily.
匿名のトレーダー、0x58broは、Ethereumやその他の暗号通貨をショートすることで$7Mの未実現利益を得たと、Arkhamのオンチェーンインテリジェンスデータが明らかにしました。この成功は、多くの著名な暗号トレーダーが大きな損失を記録している中でのものです。ポートフォリオは約$13Mを保持している0x58broは、市場のボラティリティにもかかわらず、ETHやENAをショートすることで大きな利益を上げています。このトレーダーはまた、Aaveの利息を生むETHトークンに$7.5M以上、AaveのUSDCデポジットトークンに$5Mを保有しており、戦略的なアプローチを示しています。一方で、Machi Big BrotherやTrend Researchのような他のトレーダーは、それぞれ$28Mや$869Mの損失を被っています。0x58broがショートポジションを維持するのか、反発に賭ける蓄積アドレスに参加するのかは、今後の展開を見守る必要があります。
