PANews reported on March 18th that Newfire Research Institute released its latest analysis, stating that the crypto market is demonstrating strong independent resilience. During the trading week of March 11th to 18th, while the Nasdaq index fell 1.26% for the week, Bitcoin bucked the trend, rising 5.66% over the seven days. Ethereum performed even stronger, with a weekly gain of 13%. Currently, the CoinMarketCap Fear & Greed Index has returned to above 40, and CoinGlass data shows it at 27, both having moved out of the extreme fear zone since November of last year. Newfire Research Institute believes this signifies that market confidence has rapidly recovered from its low point, and the phase of accumulation and bottom building is essentially complete.

Newfire Research Institute stated that it is optimistic about a full recovery in crypto assets, with Bitcoin and Ethereum leading the gains among asset classes, and Ethereum having a better chance of becoming the best-performing asset in 2026. Regarding the market outlook, the crypto market is currently experiencing its first recovery in both liquidity and market sentiment since November of last year, making it a highly cost-effective time to build positions for medium- to long-term investors. However, given the continued instability of the external macroeconomic environment, overly aggressive strategies are not recommended. Investors should pay close attention to the Federal Reserve's latest statement regarding the pace of future interest rate cuts tomorrow morning.

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

The post Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Wormhole is changing how its W token works by creating a new reserve designed to hold value for the long term. Announced on Wednesday, the Wormhole Reserve will collect onchain and offchain revenues and other value generated across the protocol and its applications (including Portal) and accumulate them into W, locking the tokens within the reserve. The reserve is part of a broader update called W 2.0. Other changes include a 4% targeted base yield for tokenholders who stake and take part in governance. While staking rewards will vary, Wormhole said active users of ecosystem apps can earn boosted yields through features like Portal Earn. The team stressed that no new tokens are being minted; rewards come from existing supply and protocol revenues, keeping the cap fixed at 10 billion. Wormhole is also overhauling its token release schedule. Instead of releasing large amounts of W at once under the old “cliff” model, the network will shift to steady, bi-weekly unlocks starting October 3, 2025. The aim is to avoid sharp periods of selling pressure and create a more predictable environment for investors. Lockups for some groups, including validators and investors, will extend an additional six months, until October 2028. Core contributor tokens remain under longer contractual time locks. Wormhole launched in 2020 as a cross-chain bridge and now connects more than 40 blockchains. The W token powers governance and staking, with a capped supply of 10 billion. By redirecting fees and revenues into the new reserve, Wormhole is betting that its token can maintain value as demand for moving assets and data between chains grows. This is a developing story.
