Hanif Zahari/iStock Editorial via Getty Images By Jose Antonio Gastelum Ethereum ( ETH-USD ) is under renewed pressure as the broader crypto market struggles to regain momentum. The second-largest digital asset fell 2.54% to around $1,970, extending losses that have now exceeded 35% from its recent market peak. The decline reflects a mix of technical weakness, fading liquidity and cautious investor positioning, even as some long-term indicators suggest structural support may be forming beneath current levels. Volatility returns as key levels come into focus After forming a short-term base above $1,950, Ether briefly climbed past $2,130 before retreating below $2,050. Analysts note that resistance remains clustered between $2,065 and $2,120, while support sits near $1,950 and then around $1,850. A break below these zones could expose the asset to deeper downside pressure. ETH-USD price action (Source: TradingView) Research director Vetle Lunde of K33 Research said Ethereum’s weakness follows last autumn’s rapid surge, when large inflows into spot Ethereum exchange-traded funds and a sharp rise in open positions left the market overstretched. Assets with higher volatility profiles tend to react more aggressively than Bitcoin during corrections, amplifying price swings. Some market observers warn that recent rebounds lack conviction. Trading activity remains muted, suggesting buyers have not yet returned in force. If support fails decisively, analysts see the possibility of a broader move toward lower historical demand areas, potentially even below $1,000 in an extreme scenario. Longer-term fractals and on-chain data suggest consolidation Historical comparisons between the 2021-2022 and 2024-2025 cycles show similarities in how Ether formed an initial bottom before revisiting lower levels, Cointelegraph writes . On weekly charts, the recent drop toward $1,730 resembles an early phase rather than a confirmed long-term floor. On-chain data indicates that significant sup...

ByteDance, the parent company of TikTok, is reportedly developing an artificial intelligence (AI) chip and is in discussions with Samsung Electronics (OTC:SSNLF) for its manufacturing. The Chinese tech company plans to receive sample chips by the end of March, Reuters reported on Wednesday, citing sources familiar with the matter. It also aims to manufacture at least 100,000 units of the AI inference chip this year. ByteDance plans to scale production to as many as 350,000 units gradually and is negotiating with Samsung not only on manufacturing but also on securing memory chip supplies, which are in tight demand amid the global AI infrastructure expansion, according to the report. The development represents a key milestone for ByteDance in its multi-year effort to build in-house chips for AI workloads, an initiative that began with hiring chip-related talent in 2022. Benzinga reached out to ByteDance and Samsung for comments, but did not receive an immediate response.

Bitcoin fell to its lowest level since last Friday’s selloff, diverging sharply from Asian equities that climbed to fresh records and highlighting investors’ lack of confidence in a sustained recovery. The largest cryptocurrency dropped as much as 2.8% to $66,664 during Asian trading hours on Wednesday. Ether, the second-biggest coin, fell 3.5% to an intraday low of $1,938. Those declines came even as the MSCI Asia Pacific Index advanced 1.5% to an all-time high, extending its year-to-date outperformance over US and European peers. A gauge of emerging-market stocks also touched a record. The dollar declined. Renewed expectations of US rate cuts aren’t buoying digital tokens, where sluggish trading underscores the bleak mood gripping the sector since October. While large Bitcoin investors have started purchasing again, the token’s failure to attract wider buying puts it at risk of further declines. “The acceleration of price decline to $60,000 without corresponding volume spikes suggests thin order books and lack of buyer conviction at intermediate levels,” Kaiko analyst Laurens Fraussen wrote in a note. “This creates vulnerability to further downside on modest selling pressure.”
