Across the crypto ETF universe in the attached dataset, price action shows modest short-term gains but mixed weekly performance. On a 1-day basis, most Bitcoin ETFs posted small positive returns clustered around +0.54% to +0.57%(e.g., IBIT +0.57%, FBTC +0.56%, GBTC +0.55%, BITB +0.54%), indicating a mild rebound consistent across issuers. Broader averages across all listed crypto ETFs are slightly higher, with mean daily returns around +1.2%, suggesting some stronger movers outside the core Bitcoin funds.
However, 1-week performance remains negative across the major Bitcoin ETFs, with declines generally in the range of −4.6% to −5.4% (IBIT −4.6%, FBTC −5.0%, GBTC −5.4%, BITB −5.4%), reflecting continued short-term pressure despite the daily bounce. On aggregate, weekly returns across the dataset average approximately −0.6% to −1.0%, depending on category, with dispersion driven by smaller or more volatile products.
Overall, the data indicates a short-term recovery (+~0.5% to +1.2% daily) following a broader weekly drawdown (−~4% to −5% for major ETFs), highlighting a market attempting to stabilize after recent weakness.
Between April 1 (18:00 ET) and April 2 (06:00 ET), the crypto market saw a broad pullback, with total market cap declining from $2.44T to $2.37T (−2.9%). Major Layer-1 assets reversed prior modest gains into losses: Bitcoin fell from $68,422 to $66,357 (−3.3%), Ethereum dropped from $2,156 to $2,042 (−4.4%), XRP declined from $1.35 to $1.31 (−2.9%), and BNB decreased from $614.02 to $585.69 (−4.8%). Solana also weakened from $81.80 to $79.19 (−5.0%), while Cardano slipped from $0.25 to $0.24 (−3.8%).
In DeFi, declines were more pronounced, with Uniswap falling from $3.59 (implied prior) to $3.33 (−7.3%), Chainlink dropping from around $9.04 to $8.50 (−6.0%), and Aave down (−5.5%) on the day and (−12.0%) over 7 days. Avalanche also saw continued pressure, falling from $8.66 levels to remain down (−6.0%) daily and (−6.8%) weekly. Hyperliquid declined from $36.19 to $35.03 (−5.4%), extending its weekly loss to (−10.7%).
Despite the broader selloff, a few tokens maintained upward momentum. Celestia rose from $0.34 to $0.62 (+6.0% daily), Sei increased from $0.08 to $0.14 (+5.1%), and Ondo climbed from $0.26 to $0.50 (+3.6%), though all still show slight negative or mixed performance over 7 days. MemeCore remained relatively strong, holding near $2.46–$2.47 with +2.1% daily and +6.1% weekly gains.
Overall, the shift reflects a transition from mild strength on April 1 (+0.4% market cap) to a risk-off move by early April 2, with widespread declines across large caps and DeFi, partially offset by continued relative strength in select mid-cap and emerging tokens.
