March 2, local time — Tehran, Iran’s capital, came under attack with multiple explosions rocking several areas including the city center. Blasts were reported in Tajrish, Ferdowsi Square, the area housing the Iranian Foreign Ministry’s police unit, and other locations.

March 2 — Digital asset products saw $1 billion in inflows last week, ending a five-week streak of $4 billion in outflows, according to a CoinShares report. Market sentiment was buoyed by price weakness, a technical reset, and support from whale accumulation. From a macro standpoint, no single catalyst drove the sentiment shift, but prior price declines, breaks below key technical levels, and renewed accumulation by large Bitcoin holders appear to have fueled the reversal. More specifically, recent client discussions have centered almost entirely on identifying entry points rather than cutting exposure to the asset class. Bitcoin was the top beneficiary, posting $881 million in inflows — though Bitcoin bear products also saw $3.7 million in inflows, underscoring ongoing divergence in market views. Ethereum recorded $117 million in inflows, its largest weekly haul since mid-January. Both Bitcoin and Ethereum remain in net outflow territory year-to-date. Solana added $53.8 mi

Mainstream centralized (CEX) and decentralized (DEX) exchange funding rates now signal a market-wide shift back to bearish sentiment—after a rebound to neutral on Sunday. Specific funding rates for key cryptocurrencies are in the attached chart. **BlockBeats Note:** Funding rates are fees set by crypto exchanges to align perpetual contract prices with underlying asset prices. They facilitate fund transfers between long and short traders (exchanges do not collect these fees) and adjust traders’ holding costs or profits to keep contract prices close to the underlying asset’s value. **Funding Rate Guidelines:** - 0.01% = baseline rate - Above 0.01% = broad bullish sentiment - Below 0.005% = broad bearish sentiment
