ETH 15-minute drop of 0.92%: Institutional selling and macro risk aversion converge to trigger selling pressure

2026-03-30 17:15 to 17:30 (UTC), within 15 minutes ETH’s return recorded -0.92%, the price range was 2032.21 to 2060.58 USDT, the amplitude was 1.38%, and short-term market volatility intensified, drawing widespread attention. Data from the funding side shows that during this period the market’s overall trading volume remained at a high level, with large on-chain capital flows leaving, and short-term selling pressure being concentrated and released.

BTC 15-minute drop of 0.54%: Weak liquidity and whale sell pressure jointly drive the decline

2026-03-30 14:15 to 14:30 (UTC) saw a significant abnormal move in the Bitcoin spot market. The short-term return rate was -0.54%, the price ranged from 67249.9 to 67698.6 USDT, and the amplitude reached 0.66%.

The main drivers of this abnormal move are fragile liquidity and concentrated whale fund selling.
