**March 5th Update** Data from Coinbob’s Popular Address Monitor shows the “ETH Whale Master” (address 0xa5b0) currently holds a 15x leveraged ETH long position with $9.2 million in unrealized gains (93% return). The address also holds ~70,000 ETH (valued at ~$144 million) with an average entry price of $1991. Unlike its past “buy high, sell low” pattern, it held positions instead of selling when ETH dipped below its average entry—then opened a second trade: on March 3rd, it bought the BTC dip near short-term bottoms at an average $68,170, with a $47.1 million position. That BTC long now has $2.8 million in profits (118% ROI), outperforming its main ETH position. Notably, this address is Hyperliquid’s largest long holder for both BTC and ETH, with total unrealized gains exceeding $11 million. It has not taken profits yet and remains bullish. Background: The whale established a $1 billion ETH long position late last year, closing it fully in February. It recently re-entere

March 5 — Iranian international media reported Wednesday that Iran’s Assembly of Experts will convene an emergency meeting Thursday to formally name Mujtaba Khamenei, son of late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, as the country’s new Supreme Leader. At least eight assembly members plan to boycott the vote, arguing appointing Khamenei’s son would appear hereditary and raise questions over religious legitimacy.

Due to ongoing security concerns, the upcoming meeting will likely be held online from a secret location. (Source: Jinse)

**March 5th Update** Independent crypto market analyst Axel Adler noted Bitcoin’s market regime score has rebounded from its year-to-date low of -47 (hit February 7) to +0.98 as of March 4—crossing back above zero. While the reading was deeper than the -37 seen in November 2025 (which took 33 days to recover) and the -35 in August (11 days), it only took 25 days to bounce back, marking a relatively faster recovery pace. The analyst highlighted two key triggers to keep the regime score in bull market territory: a normalized funding rate and Bitcoin holding above $70,000.

This is the first time the two metrics have aligned since January, when their synchronicity preceded a 7-8% price gain. Adler argues the simultaneous signals from these indepen
