Bitcoin price slips near $91,000 as ApeMars claims Stage 3 presale progress and Stacks STX ‘reversal’ talk builds

ApeMars, a blockchain token project, said it has entered Stage 3 of its presale — an early token sale before wider exchange trading — with more than 4 billion tokens distributed, over 410 on-chain holders and about $84,000 raised. A sponsor-funded release carried by Markets Insider described bitcoin near the mid-$90,000s and solana in the mid-$100s, and said the 23-stage sale uses automatic price steps and token “burns” — removals from supply — with allocations recorded on-chain, or on the blockchain ledger. The disclosure said the publisher does not endorse or verify the information and warned that crypto investing can result in a total loss of capital.

Bitcoin whale sells $48 million after 12 years — and the market isn’t panicking

A Bitcoin “whale” — a term for a major holder — offloaded another 500 bitcoins, valued at about $47.77 million, sending them to Binance, on-chain analyst EmberCN reported. The same address began accumulating back in November 2013, building a 5,000-BTC stash. Since November 2024, it has transferred around 2,500 BTC to Binance, netting approximately $260 million in gains, the analyst added.
