Despite BTC’s recovery, the market still exhibits red numbers. Crypto analysts remain optimistic about ARB and the market’s bullish run.  Related Reading: Bitcoin Traders Capitulate: Here’s What Happened Last 2 Times Are Arbitrum Whales Still Dumping On Exchanges?  The event on March 16 unlocked 1.1 billion ARB tokens.
