Crypto Morning Daily
Crypto-related ETFs broadly declined over the past day while still showing solid gains over the past week, reflecting the pullback in underlying digital assets despite recent positive momentum.
Bitcoin ETFs experienced moderate daily losses but strong weekly performance. Across major funds such as IBIT, FBTC, GBTC, ARKB, BITB, and others, the group declined about -2.6% on average over 1 day, while still posting roughly +9.2% gains over the past week. Leveraged Bitcoin funds showed amplified moves, with products like 2x Bitcoin Strategy ETFs rising about +16.7% over the week, reflecting the strong prior rally in Bitcoin before the latest pullback.
Ethereum ETFs also moved lower in the short term, with the category falling approximately -3.0% over 1 day, while maintaining around +8.6% gains over the past week. Funds such as ETHA, ETHE, and FETH tracked closely with Ethereum’s price movement as the asset slipped overnight but remained significantly higher on a weekly basis.
Solana-related ETFs followed the broader altcoin weakness, generally declining around 3–5% over the past day, reflecting the drop in SOL to roughly $87 (-5.1%), though weekly performance remained positive due to earlier market strength.
XRP ETFs showed slightly larger short-term declines relative to other crypto ETF segments, averaging about -3.1% over 1 day, while still delivering roughly +4.6% gains over the past week, indicating weaker weekly momentum compared with Bitcoin and Ethereum products.
Finally, multi-coin and diversified crypto ETFs moved largely in line with the broader digital asset market, generally declining around 2–4% on the day while remaining up roughly 6–9% over the past week, as gains from the earlier crypto rally continued to support multi-asset fund performance.
Overall, crypto ETFs reflect a short-term risk-off move with daily declines of roughly 2–5% across most funds, while weekly returns remain strongly positive (about +5% to +9%), highlighting that the broader trend is still upward despite the latest market pullback.
The cryptocurrency market declined overnight, with total market capitalization falling 3.2% to $2.47T as of 06:00 ET on March 6, down from $2.49T (-1.7%) in the prior evening update.

Other large caps also weakened, including XRP at $1.40 (-2.7%), BNB at $640.42 (-3.4%), and Solana (SOL) at $87.67 (-5.1%), which deepened losses from -2.5% in the prior update.
Despite the broader pullback, OKB was the standout gainer, rising to $96.65 (+22.9% in 24 hours and +24.4% over 7 days), extending momentum from $92.88 (+19.5%) the prior evening. Pi (PI) also remained positive at $0.20 (+2.0% in 24 hours, +17.6% weekly) after stronger gains earlier.

Metaverse tokens traded lower, with Chiliz (CHZ) at $0.04 (-4.2%), The Sandbox (SAND) at $0.08 (-3.2%), and Decentraland (MANA) at $0.10 (-3.2%), though CHZ remains up +10.7% over the week.
