## Crypto Daily Digest: BTC ETF reduced its holdings by more than 55,000 BTC in the past 35 days, and FalconX completed CME's first SOL futures block transaction
According to Farside Investors data, the total net outflow of US <a href="/ja/price/bitcoin-btc" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">Bitcoin</a> spot ETFs last week was $830 million, of which BlackRock IBIT outflow was $338 million and Fidelity FBTC outflow was $462 million. Since 2025, BTC ETFs have continued to show a net outflow trend.

Last week, the <a href="/ja/price/ethereum-eth" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">Ethereum</a> spot ETF had a total outflow of $190 million, of which BlackRock ETHA had an outflow of $63.3 million and Fidelity FETH had an outflow of $61.3 million. Both the ETH ETF and the BTC ETF showed a net outflow trend. The <a href="/ja/price/ethereum-eth" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">ETH price</a> fell below the $2,000 mark again, and the ETH/BTC exchange rate dropped to 0.023.

**This week’s unlocking data at a glance: MELANIA, FTN, OM and other tokens will see large amounts of unlocking**

According to Token Unlocks data, SOLV, APE, OM and other tokens will be unlocked in large amounts this week, including:

MELANIA will unlock 26.25 million tokens at 8:00 am on March 18, accounting for 17.50% of the current circulation and worth approximately $17.6 million.

FTN will unlock 20 million tokens at 8 am on March 18, accounting for 4.65% of the current circulation and worth approximately $79.8 million.

OM will unlock 5 million tokens at 8 am on March 23, accounting for 0.51% of the current circulation and worth approximately $32.8 million.
 
MRS will unlock 10 million tokens at 8 am on March 23, accounting for 11.87% of the current circulation and worth approximately $97.4 million.

**FalconX Completed First <a href="/ja/price/solana-sol" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">Solana</a> Futures Block Trade on CME, Paving the Way for Potential Spot ETF**

FalconX announced that it had completed the first-ever SOL futures block trade with counterparty StoneX before the official launch of CME Group’s Solana futures contract. The move provides institutional investors with “risk and price exposure management tools in a regulated venue.” SOL futures block trading completes the purchase and sale of large futures contracts through over-the-counter negotiations, avoiding impacting asset prices in the open market. CME Solana futures are divided into two types - standard contracts (500 SOL) and micro contracts (25 SOL), which are cash-settled based on the CME CF Solana-US dollar reference rate (calculated daily at 16:00 London time).

CME launched SOL futures at the end of February, which is regarded as a "key prelude" to the approval of Solana ETF. Franklin Templeton, Grayscale, 21Shares and other institutions have also submitted spot Solana ETF applications to the SEC. CME follows the traditional path of "futures first, then ETF" (such as Bitcoin and Ethereum). The launch of Solana futures has cleared the key obstacles for the approval of SOL spot ETF. With the accelerated layout of institutional funds, the narrative of SOL as an "Ethereum challenger" may heat up again. However, the SEC's determination of Solana's securities attributes has not yet been clarified, and whether the SOL spot ETF is passed or not may reshape the competition landscape of public chains.

**US Bitcoin spot ETF reduced its holdings by 55,348 Bitcoins in the past 35 days**

According to Bitcoin.com, the latest data shows that US Bitcoin spot ETFs have reduced their Bitcoin holdings by 4.76% since February 6, 2025. From January 1 to February 6, these funds added approximately 56,802.86 Bitcoins to their balance sheets, but in the past 35 days, holdings have decreased by 55,348 Bitcoins.

As of March 14, the total value of Bitcoin held by the U.S. Bitcoin spot ETFs was $93.25 billion, accounting for about 5.6% of the total market value of Bitcoin. BlackRock's IBIT consolidated its leading position with a net inflow of $39.24 billion and a holding of 568,559.37 Bitcoins. Fidelity FBTC followed closely behind, ranking second, with a total inflow of $11.25 billion and a holding of 194,269.83 Bitcoins. At the same time, Grayscale's GBTC, despite a net outflow of $22.5 billion, still ranked third with a holding of 193,870.05 Bitcoins. The three giants IBIT, FBTC and GBTC together account for 85.26% of the entire spot ETF holdings.

## Market Trends: MELANIA will welcome a large amount of unlocking, BNB market cap surpassed SOL and ranked fifth
### Market Hotspots
Trump's wife Melania Trump's eponymous meme coin MELANIA will unlock $19 million worth of tokens tomorrow, and will continue to unlock large amounts in the coming months; Trump-related meme coins have not been officially confirmed to have any actual application scenarios, and the coin price will be difficult to rise without more exposure and publicity from Trump; MELANIA has fallen by more than 90% from its launch high;

<a href="/ja/price/bnb-bnb" target="_blank" class="blog_inner_link">BNB</a> rose by more than 20% last week, becoming the best performing token among the top 10 tokens by market cap. During this period, the BNB Chain ecosystem also performed well, with tokens such as AUCTION, BNX, and CAKE continuing to rise. In addition, BNB's market cap exceeded $88 billion, and BNB surpassed SOL to become the fifth token by market cap.

### Mainstream Coins
BTC is still in a narrow range of $80,000-$85,000. Since 2025, BTC ETF has been showing a net outflow trend. Today, the AHR999 index is 0.19, indicating that it is suitable for long-termists to invest regularly.

ETH has been trading around $1,900, with no obvious improvement in fundamentals and funding conditions. The ETH/BTC exchange rate hit a new low in nearly four years.

Altcoins generally fell, BNB Chain performed relatively well, AUCTION, BNX and others rose, but the future of BNB Chain remains to be seen.

## Macro News: The three major U.S. stock indexes rose across the board, and the Federal Reserve is unlikely to cut interest rates in March
Last Friday, the three major U.S. stock indexes all rose by more than 1%, with the S&P 500 up 2.13% to 5,638.94 points, the Dow Jones up 1.65% to 41,488.19 points, and the Nasdaq up 2.61% to 17,754.09 points. The benchmark 10-year Treasury yield was 4.31%, and the 2-year Treasury yield, which is most sensitive to the Fed's policy rate, was 4.02%.

With inflation still well above the Fed's 2% target and tariffs and other policies from the Trump administration threatening to push prices higher, the Fed is widely expected to keep interest rates unchanged on Wednesday. The key to watch will be the Fed's latest Summary of Economic Projections (SEP). This includes its "dot plot," which depicts policymakers' expectations for where interest rates might go in the future, and comments from Fed Chairman Jerome Powell at his press conference.

When the Fed released its dot plot in December, the median forecast was that the federal funds rate would be in a range of 3.75% to 4% by the end of 2025, which would reflect two 25 basis point rate cuts this year, one less than the market expected.
