Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and several altcoins bounced back overnight after facing recent pullbacks 📈.
The crypto market finally turned green following an extended downturn, and this positive momentum was also visible in US spot ETF activity.
For the second straight day, US spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs attracted fresh capital inflows 💰. Data from SoSoValue shows that on February 25th, US spot Bitcoin ETFs registered a combined net inflow of $506.5 million.
Leading the pack was BlackRock’s IBIT with $296.75M, followed by Fidelity’s FBTC with $30.09M and Bitwise’s BITB adding $39.37M. Ark Invest’s ARKB pulled in $2.29M, VanEck’s HODL secured $15.61M, while Grayscale’s GBTC recorded $102.49M and its Mini BTC fund brought in another $19.29M 🚀 Ethereum ETFs also maintained their positive streak, marking a second consecutive day of net inflows.
According to SoSoValue, US spot Ethereum ETFs accumulated $157.1 million on February 25th. BlackRock’s ETHA saw $31.21M, Fidelity’s FETH captured $61.94M, Bitwise’s ETHW added $1.48M, VanEck’s ETHV brought in $3.03M, Grayscale’s ETHE logged $33.87M, and Grayscale’s Mini Trust ETH contributed $25.55M 📊 Vincent Liu, Chief Investment Officer at Kronos Research, highlighted that these inflows suggest institutional investors are gradually shifting from a defensive stance toward cautious accumulation.
Still, positioning remains balanced, indicating that market sentiment is stabilizing rather than overheating ⚖️ #bitcoin #BTC
Bitcoin (BTC) has been on a downtrend since reaching its all-time high of $126,000 last October 📉. Even with many bearish forecasts circulating — and BTC dropping roughly 50% from that peak — a recent report suggests this doesn’t necessarily signal a true bear market.
According to Bitcoin financial services company River, the asset’s price decline hasn’t slowed its real-world growth. In fact, adoption continues to accelerate 🚀
👉 “Bitcoin is down 50% from its all-time high, yet its usage keeps expanding in ways the price hasn’t fully reflected.”
In other words, Bitcoin adoption is far from bearish. The report highlights that confidence in Bitcoin has grown faster than trust in any other asset in history 🏆. Over the past year alone, institutional players — including corporations, governments, funds, and ETFs — have collectively accumulated around 829,000 BTC.
Another key insight is that Registered Investment Advisors (RIAs) have remained consistent net buyers for eight straight quarters, while spot Bitcoin ETFs have attracted roughly $1.5 billion in inflows per quarter over the last two years 💰 Regulation is also becoming more favorable.
Compared to previous years, the environment has improved significantly, and about 60% of major US banks are now working on Bitcoin-related products 🏦
In 2025, companies emerged as the biggest BTC buyers, with purchase volumes jumping 2.5x year over year. Meanwhile, nation-state adoption continues to grow 🌍
Five new countries — including Luxembourg, Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth funds, the Czech central bank, Brazil, and Taiwan — have started adding Bitcoin to their holdings. As a result, the number of nations holding BTC via mining operations, seized assets, or central bank reserves has climbed to 23.
Looking at these 2025 developments, River concludes that Bitcoin’s adoption curve is likely to accelerate even further in the coming years 📊🔥 #BTC #bitcoin
The US Federal Reserve has made an important move to expand banking access for the crypto industry after years of restrictions 🚀 In an official announcement, the Fed revealed actions aimed at removing reputational risk from its bank supervision standards.
As part of this initiative, the central bank opened a 60-day public consultation on a proposal that would stop banks from denying services to crypto companies simply due to reputational concerns 💼 With this effort, the Fed seeks to formalize a policy change that eliminates reputational risk from oversight rules — a factor many believe contributed to crypto firms losing banking support in recent years 📉
The shift actually started last June, when regulators were instructed to avoid pressuring banks to close customer accounts based solely on reputational risk issues.
Michelle Bowman, the Fed’s Vice Chair for Supervision, highlighted the concern by noting that regulators had allegedly pushed financial institutions to refuse services to clients over reputational fears tied to political opinions, religious beliefs, or participation in lawful yet controversial businesses. She emphasized that discrimination on these grounds is illegal and should not exist within the Fed’s regulatory framework ⚖️
Senator Cynthia Lummis welcomed the decision on social media, calling it a major step toward permanently removing reputational risk from Fed policy and putting an end to what she described as “Operation Chokepoint 2.0.” She added that the change could help position the United States as a global hub for digital assets 🌎💰
Bitcoin (BTC) and most altcoins kicked off the week under pressure, extending their losses 📉. BTC slid toward the $64,000 level, while Ethereum (ETH) also pulled back to around $1,860.
Even with the dip, some investors view this moment as a potential buying opportunity 👀💰. Meanwhile, BitMine chairman Tom Lee, known for his bullish stance, shared a more reassuring outlook.
In an interview with CNBC 🎙️, Lee explained that the recent crypto weakness looks more like a short-term shakeout than a deeper market breakdown. As head of the Ethereum treasury firm BitMine, he believes the downturn reflects temporary turbulence — not a collapse in fundamentals.
According to Lee, the pullback is largely tied to macro uncertainty 🌍, including volatility sparked by factors such as the U.S. Supreme Court decision related to President Donald Trump’s tariffs. He emphasized that the core strength of blockchain networks remains intact. Lee characterized Bitcoin’s roughly 50% correction as a “crypto storm” ⛈️ — intense, but likely brief in duration.
“What we’re seeing are typical bear-market dynamics,” he noted. “Instead of euphoric blow-offs followed by sudden 70% crashes, this cycle is unfolding through slower, more controlled retracements. Seasonal patterns in the middle of the year also suggest staying cautious rather than overly optimistic.”
He also highlighted ongoing signs of growth in real-world crypto adoption 🚀, pointing to rising Ethereum transaction volumes, the continued expansion of tokenization, and stronger involvement from Wall Street as evidence that the industry remains resilient and steadily advancing. #BTC #ETH

Quantum fears around Bitcoin have popped back into the spotlight lately, with some voices claiming that worries about quantum tech are fueling the latest market dip ⚛️📉
But one Bitcoin Core developer isn’t buying that narrative.
During an appearance on journalist Laura Shin’s Unchained podcast 🎙️, developer Matt Corallo explained that quantum computing had nothing to do with Bitcoin’s recent price pullback. He also pushed back on the idea that quantum risk is driving the current market weakness.
Corallo pointed out that if quantum threats were truly spooking investors, Ethereum would likely be outperforming Bitcoin in a noticeable way 🚀
👉 “If that were the case, Ethereum should be gaining much more ground against Bitcoin,” he argued.
Meanwhile, some Bitcoin community members have criticized blockchain developers for not moving quickly enough to strengthen networks against future quantum attacks. On the other hand, the Ethereum Foundation says it’s already taking proactive steps to stay ahead of the curve 🛡️
In fact, its recently revealed 2026 roadmap highlights goals such as faster transactions, more intelligent wallets, smoother cross-chain connectivity, and security upgrades designed to withstand potential quantum threats ⚡🔐
Still, Corallo acknowledged that quantum computing could pose a risk in the distant future — but stressed that traders may be exaggerating its importance when trying to explain short-term market drops. In his view, the quantum narrative is more speculation than a real driver of current price action 🤔📊 #BTC #bitcoin
Bitcoin (BTC) dropped to around $60,000, then bounced back above $70,000, but couldn’t hold that momentum for long. 📉➡️📈
Now trading near $66,000, many traders fear additional downside, while others believe the $60,000 zone could act as a strong bottom. 🧠💭
At this stage, one analyst suggests BTC may regain strength if it manages to consolidate between $65,000 and $70,000.
In an interview with DL News, analyst Thomas Perfumo explained that Bitcoin has a solid chance of rebounding once price stability is established within that range. 🔎
He also highlighted that options market traders are positioning for lower volatility while BTC moves sideways in this zone, signaling expectations of a calmer market. ⚖️
Perfumo pointed out that similar patterns occurred during Bitcoin pullbacks in August 2024 and March–April 2025, when sharp sell-offs and intense volatility were eventually followed by recovery rallies. 🚀
👉 “Historically, Bitcoin showed the same behavior during its corrections in August 2024 and March–April 2025.”
In both situations, the market absorbed the heavy selling pressure, volatility cooled off, and prices gradually moved higher again. 📊
To reinforce his outlook, Perfumo referenced on-chain metrics, particularly the Coin Days Destroyed (CDD) indicator. After spiking in 2024–2025, CDD has recently dropped to relatively low levels, suggesting long-term holders are selling less.
According to the analyst, this decline in long-term selling pressure reduces supply stress and creates a healthier environment for price stabilization and potential recovery. ✅📈 #BTC #bitcoin
Bitcoin and most altcoins have taken a heavy hit since October, facing sharp pullbacks and shaking investor confidence 📉😰
With many traders asking when this bearish phase might finally wrap up — and where crypto is headed next — analyst Gareth Soloway recently shared his outlook on Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and XRP in a new YouTube update 🎥📊
According to him, the market could see a short-term bounce, but volatility is still very much on the table ⚠️ He believes that major cryptocurrencies may stage a temporary relief rally before the market ultimately decides its longer-term direction.
1️⃣ Bitcoin (BTC) 🟠
Soloway pointed out that Bitcoin’s recent price action suggests a possible bullish consolidation pattern — something that often appears when smart money starts accumulating during periods of fear and uncertainty 😨➡️💰 In the near term, BTC could attempt a rebound toward the $80,000–$85,000 range. However, this zone is expected to act as strong resistance, meaning sellers may step in aggressively there 🧱 So while a recovery push is possible, it won’t likely be an easy breakout.
2️⃣ Ethereum (ETH) 🔵
The analyst emphasized that Ethereum tends to mirror Bitcoin’s overall trend cycles. “If Bitcoin finds stability, Ethereum could follow with a short-term recovery move,” he explained 📈 Still, ETH’s longer-term outlook depends on whether the broader crypto market establishes a clear bottom. Without that confirmation, any rally could remain temporary. In a rebound scenario, Soloway estimates Ethereum could climb back toward $2,600, which aligns with the lower boundary of its previous consolidation zone 🔄
3️⃣ XRP 🟣
When it comes to XRP, uncertainty remains high. The key level to watch, according to the analyst, is $1.78. For bullish momentum to return, XRP needs to break decisively above that resistance level 🚀 If it succeeds, it could invalidate the current downtrend and begin stabilizing. #BTC #xrp
📉 Bitcoin (BTC) is still under pressure, as global political tensions, economic uncertainty, and capital leaving spot ETFs continue to weigh on the market. 🌍💰
However, a senior executive from BlackRock shared a different take on what’s really happening. 👀
During Bitcoin Investor Week 2026, Robert Mitchnick — Global Head of Digital Assets at BlackRock — pushed back against claims that BlackRock’s IBIT ETF was responsible for Bitcoin’s recent price weakness.
While many analysts point to spot Bitcoin ETFs as a major reason for the downturn, BlackRock, which manages the largest BTC ETF (IBIT), disagrees.
Mitchnick explained that only 0.2% of the fund’s assets were withdrawn — far too small to trigger major market swings. 📊✅
He also emphasized that big players like institutional investors, governments, and banks often see price drops as buying opportunities. 💼🏦📈 According to him, most of the extreme volatility actually comes from leveraged futures trading platforms, not ETFs.
🗣️ “There’s a false narrative that hedge funds are intentionally using ETFs to create chaos in the market,” Mitchnick said. “Some believe they manipulate prices and force sell-offs, but our data simply doesn’t back that up.”
Despite a rough week for Bitcoin, IBIT saw very minimal outflows. If hedge funds had been dumping massive ETF positions, billions of dollars would have left the fund. Instead, ETF flows remained stable — especially when compared to the huge liquidations happening in leveraged markets. ⚠️📉 In conclusion, Mitchnick reinforced that IBIT’s investor base is strong, committed, and focused on the long term. 🚀🔒 #BTC #bitcoin
Val Vavilov, one of the pioneers in the crypto industry, recently shared that he sees Bitcoin’s sharp decline as a great chance to buy more 📉➡️📈.
The Latvian billionaire, who founded Bitfury 15 years ago and helped turn it into one of the biggest players in the sector, explained that he took advantage of low prices to adjust his investment portfolio 💼💡.
In a message sent via WhatsApp, Vavilov said, “This Bitcoin drop gives us the perfect moment to rebalance our portfolio and pick up some BTC at cheaper levels.” However, he chose not to reveal the exact amount invested 🤐🪙.
Last week’s strong wave of selling across the crypto market pushed Bitcoin down more than 50% from its October highs. After falling below $67,000, the asset reached its lowest point in weeks due to heavy selling pressure 📊⚠️.
Meanwhile, investor Michael Burry, famous for predicting the 2008 financial crisis, warned that Bitcoin’s fall could turn into a dangerous downward spiral 🔄📉.
Despite market downturns, some investors remain confident. One of them is Michael Saylor, whose company, Strategy, has acquired over $7 billion worth of Bitcoin since the October 10 crash 💰🚀. Vavilov, on the other hand, prefers a more cautious and diversified strategy.
“We believe in Bitcoin’s long-term potential and keep part of our assets in it, but it’s just one piece of our overall investment plan,” he said. He also highlighted that his company has expanded into artificial intelligence and other sectors 🤖🌐.
Founded in 2011, Bitfury is a private company that provides mining hardware and blockchain technology solutions. In addition, Vavilov owns a 12% stake in Cipher Mining, which separated from Bitfury in 2021 and later went public on Nasdaq 📈🏦. #BTC #bitcoin
🚀 Tether Makes a Strategic Move in Blockchain Interoperability 🌐💰
Tether, the company behind USDT — the world’s leading stablecoin — has revealed a strategic investment in LayerZero Labs, the team responsible for the interoperability system powering USDT0.
💡 While the exact amount hasn’t been shared, the move highlights Tether’s strong belief in LayerZero’s technical expertise, innovative solutions, and its importance in building seamless blockchain connections.
🗣️ Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino emphasized that the company is focused on supporting infrastructure that delivers real value in the real world. According to him, LayerZero’s technology allows digital assets to move instantly across different networks and ledgers, creating major advantages for the financial industry.
🤖💸 He also noted that this technology plays a key role in supporting the emerging AI-driven economy, where fast, secure, and scalable micro-payments will become essential on a global scale.
Meanwhile, LayerZero CEO Bryan Pellegrino praised Tether’s global impact 🌍, stating that the company has turned the idea of borderless money into reality. He highlighted USDT0’s success as a major achievement and described Tether’s new investment as a strong sign of long-term partnership.
🤝 Together, both companies are excited to continue building open, permissionless financial infrastructure for the future of global markets. #USDT #LayerZero
🚀📊 Strategy Keeps Betting on Bitcoin Despite the Dip! 🟠💰
Even as the crypto market faces a downturn, Strategy — the Bitcoin treasury company led by Michael Saylor — continues to strengthen its position.
📄 According to a recent filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the company acquired 1,142 BTC between February 2 and 8, investing around $90 million. Each Bitcoin was bought at an average price of $78,815.
🔥 With this latest move, Strategy’s total Bitcoin reserves have now reached 714,644 BTC. At today’s market prices, these holdings are worth nearly $49 billion, while the overall investment cost stands at about $54.3 billion.
📉 This means the company is currently facing roughly $5.1 billion in unrealized losses. Even so, their BTC stash represents more than 3.4% of Bitcoin’s total supply — a massive share! 💎
💼 The recent purchases were funded through an “off-market” (ATM) sale of Strategy’s Class A shares (ticker: MSTR). Before the deal, Saylor once again teased the community with his famous phrase: “Orange Dots Matter.” 🟠✨
⚠️ In the fourth quarter, Strategy reported losses due to Bitcoin’s price decline affecting its balance sheet. During the earnings call, CEO Phong Le explained that unless Bitcoin crashes to $8,000 and stays there for 5–6 years, the company faces no serious threat in repaying its convertible debt.
📈 Meanwhile, analysts point out that even though Strategy uses leverage, its financial structure remains conservative and designed for the long term.
💬 What do you think — bold vision or risky bet? 🚀📉 #BTC #bitcoin
📉❄️ As Bitcoin (BTC) and the wider crypto market continue to fall sharply, discussions about a possible “crypto winter” are heating up. According to Bitwise’s Chief Investment Officer, Matt Hougan, this downturn goes far beyond a normal correction.
💬 Hougan believes the market isn’t just going through a temporary dip — it’s facing a deep and prolonged bear phase, similar to past crypto winters.
📊 In his analysis, he compared the current situation to what happened in 2018 and 2022, when prices kept dropping even while positive news, like stronger adoption and better regulations, was emerging.
📝 In a recent message to investors, Hougan explained that this crypto winter likely began in January of last year and is now approaching its later stages, rather than just starting.
⚠️ “What we’re seeing right now isn’t a small pullback,” he said. “It’s a classic bear market, very much like the cycles in 2018 and 2022.”
📉 High leverage in the market, combined with early investors taking profits, has weakened price reactions — meaning good news often fails to boost prices.
😨 Even with the possibility of a Bitcoin-friendly FED leadership, fear remains dominant in the market. According to Hougan, this is typical behavior during strong bearish phases.
📉 Since its peak last October, Bitcoin has dropped around 39%, while Ethereum has fallen by roughly 53%. Many altcoins have suffered even steeper losses.
🔍 He also pointed out that although Bitcoin reached new highs last year, the downward trend had already started months earlier — but many investors didn’t notice it in time.
🏦 “Institutional money helped hide the market’s real fragility,” Hougan noted. “Without ETFs and corporate treasury buying, Bitcoin could have fallen by as much as 60%.”
🌅 Despite the challenges, Hougan remains cautiously optimistic. He believes the market is now closer to a slow recovery than to another major crash. #BTC #bitcoin
Bitcoin (BTC) and major altcoins kicked off the week facing renewed selling pressure. This decline is being linked to rising tensions between the US and Iran 🌍, weaker institutional interest, and growing macroeconomic concerns 📊.
Some analysts are now warning that Bitcoin may be entering a bearish phase 🐻. Supporting this view, CoinShares recently published a report showing massive withdrawals from crypto investment products.
💰 $1.7 Billion Left the Market in One Week
According to the report, crypto funds recorded around $1.7 billion in outflows last week alone, pushing total net withdrawals this year to nearly $1 billion. Since the peak in October 2025, assets under management have dropped by approximately $73 billion 📉.
Experts believe this trend is driven by multiple factors, including:
A more aggressive stance from the Federal Reserve 🏦
Large investors selling as part of the four-year market cycle 🔄
Rising geopolitical instability ⚠️
📌 Bitcoin and US Markets Took the Biggest Hit
When breaking down the numbers by asset, Bitcoin absorbed most of the pressure.
🟠 Bitcoin: –$1.32B
🔵 Ethereum: –$308M
Several popular altcoins also shifted from inflows to outflows:
Since Bitcoin’s downturn kicked off in October, the months that are usually known for strong bullish momentum didn’t live up to expectations 📉🤔
October and November — traditionally seen as “bullish months” — surprisingly moved lower, shifting investors’ focus toward February 👀📆
At this stage, well-known economist Timothy Peterson has highlighted February as one of the most stable and positive months for Bitcoin dating back to 2016 🚀📊
Peterson even went as far as calling February the real “Uptober” for Bitcoin 💥
According to his analysis, historical data strongly supports a genuine upward trend. He pointed out that the average return for the week ending February 21 has been around 8.4%, with Bitcoin closing nearly 60% higher during that same period 📈🔥
He also emphasized that February has consistently delivered an average weekly gain of about 7% for BTC — outperforming even October, which traders often label as Uptober 💰📈
Peterson believes this strength is driven more by macroeconomic forces than by crypto-specific factors 🌍🏦
That’s because mid-February is typically when companies release full-year earnings reports and present optimistic outlooks. This tends to boost investor confidence, encouraging higher risk appetite — and some of that capital often finds its way into Bitcoin 💼➡️₿
“An average weekly return of at least 7% during the two-week window from February 7 to 21!” 🚀📆
Beyond Peterson, Bitcoin researcher Sminston also remains strongly bullish on BTC over the long term 🐂
Using the Bitcoin Collapse Channel model, he suggests that Bitcoin’s peak price in 2026 could land somewhere between $210,000 and $300,000 💎💸
While the model doesn’t predict exact timing, he notes that these price ranges have proven to be historically reliable 📊✅ #BTC #bitcoin
🔥BDXN cryptocurrency with the possibility of growth in the short and medium term, I will keep an eye on it to enter if the price reaches ✅ 0.018 or below and I will leave my targets starting at 🎯 0.019 / 0.020 / 0.0226... and of course if there is a very large variation I will leave a stop at 0.014 🟥
