• According to on-chain data, a Satoshi era wallet has suddenly moved 500 BTC.
• The Bitcoin wallet last transacted when the BTC price hovered near $8.

On-chain data shows a Bitcoin wallet that last transacted nearly 12 years ago has suddenly moved all 500 BTC it held.

According to data Lookonchain shared on March 30, the said wallet had been inactive since July 2012.

The last transaction that sent the 500 BTC to the wallet was at a time when Bitcoin price was a mere $8, Lookonchain noted.

A wallet that had been dormant for 11.7 years transferred all 500 $BTC($34.78M) to multiple new wallets.

This wallet received 500 $BTC($3,786 at the time) on Jul 14, 2012, when the price of $BTC was only $7.57.

While the wallet owner’s identity is unknown, the transfer to new addresses comes as Bitcoin price hovers around $70k. The benchmark cryptocurrency reached a new all-time high this month when it raced above $73k.

At current prices, the transferred coins are worth about $35 million.

In April last year, another Satoshi-ear wallet woke up after a decade of dormancy. The wallet, held 1,128 BTC and had last been active in 2012, transferred 279 BTC. The last transaction from this wallet had been when Bitcoin price was around $12.

• Binance has introduced Ethena (ENA), a synthetic dollar protocol, as the 50th Launchpool project.
• Farming ENA by staking BNB and FDUSD is open for three days from March 30, 2024.
• Binance will open trading for ENA on April 2, 2024.

Ethena (ENA) is the 50th project to hit the Binance Launchpool.

This is after Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange by trading volume, announced the opportunity for users to farm ENA tokens ahead of trading support next week.

Ethena (ENA) to list on Binance

Binance said in the announcement on Friday that users can now stake BNB and FDUSD and farm ENA tokens for three days starting March 30, 2024 at 00:00 UTC. ENA farming is not available to users in Australia, Canada and the US among other jurisdictions, Binance noted.

Meanwhile, the exchange will be the first crypto exchange to open ENA trading on April 2, 2024 at 8:00 UTC.

Supported trading pairs for the new token will be ENA/BTC, ENA/USDT, ENA/BNB, ENA/FDUSD, and ENA/TRY.

Binance’s Launchpool farming announcement comes a day after Ethena Labs revealed a 750 million airdrop of ENA to its community on Thursday.

The airdrop will account for 5% of the total supply of ENA and will be open for trading as from April 2. According to the project, the airdrop will be open to participants in its “shard campaign.” This involved the staking of the synthetic dollar (USDe).

Some of the top projects to land on the Binance Launchpool include Portal, Maverick Protocol, Sui, Aevo, and ETHFI.

Dogwifhat (WIF) strengthened its position as the top Solana-based meme coin.

With a 20% spike on Friday, the popular meme coin hit $4 to reach a new all-time high. This came after WIF price pushed past the previous all-time high reached in mid-March.

The gains saw dogwifhat flip Pepe in market cap after it reached $4 billion. Pepe, which had weekly gains of just 6% compared to WIF’s 64%, had its market cap at around $3.3 billion at the time of writing.

At current prices of $3.63, WIF is way up on its all-time low of $0.001555 in mid-December 2023.

Dogecoin breaks above $0.2

Dogwifhat’s recent surge has it poised behind meme coin heavyweights Shiba Inu and Dogecoin.

DOGE has had a decent run of its own, with Dogecoin price hitting highs of $0.22. The original dog-meme coin has jumped more than 120% in the past 30 days.

This upside has come as bets on DOGE futures rose to a record $2.2 billion amid bullish sentiment around potential listing of Dogecoin futures trading on Coinbase.

The exchange recently revealed it would launch futures trading for Dogecoin, Bitcoin Cash and Litecoin.

• Jito (JTO) price bounced off lows of $2.79 and is eyeing new momentum above $3.
• A potential cup and handle pattern could see bulls target breakout alongside Bitcoin.
• With BTC outlook positive, a rally for JTO could bring a 50% upside from current levels.

Jito (JTO) is looking to extend gains above $3 after bulls bounced off the support zone on March 29.

JTO reached highs of $3.83 on March 16, tracking gains by Bitcoin and top altcoins as BTC reached a new all-time high above $73k and ETH broke above $4,000.

Jito price outlook amid bullish Bitcoin sentiment

Despite paring gains, Jito looks to have established a fresh support zone at $2.75. The resulting upside to above $3.20 keeps the restaking protocol’s price in an uptrend, which has been in place since JTO/USD bottomed in early January.

In this case, the $3.50-$3.75 area looks crucial for bulls.

Although Jito remains in an uptrend, there’s potential for a downward flip if bulls fail to consolidate above $3.

If price climbs to $3.62, the technical picture will represent a cup and handle pattern.  Check the chart below showing the daily price movements for JTO.

Strengthening above this area could see a bullish flip allow for a retest of $4. The key upside target above this level will then be $6. This is the area of the all-time high of $6.01 reached on December 7, 2023 following Binance’s listing of JTO.

On the downside, the main support lies near $2.79 and $2.50. The daily RSI and MACD indicators suggest weakness and these might be key price levels to watch.

Bitcoin price is also poised near the $70k level. As such, traders are likely to pay attention to sentiment around the benchmark crypto.

Solana (SOL) performance is another factor to consider. Jito is a  Solana liquid staking token that’s seen great interest since its introduction.
