The Market Pulse

The global crypto market cap is holding at $3.14 Trillion, but the bears are growling. As of this morning, February 19, 2026, Bitcoin (BTC) is struggling to stay afloat in the $66,000 - $68,000 range after multiple failed attempts to break the $70,000 psychological wall.

The Technical Red Flag 🚩

For the first time since the 2022 correction, Bitcoin has flashed a Weekly Death Cross (the 20-week MA crossing below the 50-week MA). Historically, this signal has preceded deep macro corrections.

Current Live Stats:

BTC: $66,719 (+0.96% morning bounce)

ETH: $1,963 (Fighting to hold $2,000)

Top Gainer: Espresso (ESP) is skyrocketing +45.76% today!

Trading Strategy:

Watch the $66,000 support closely. If BTC fails to hold this level by the evening session, analysts warn of a slide toward $60,000 or even $56,625. However, RSI is currently at 32 (oversold), suggesting a "Bear Trap" could be in play if we reclaim $75,000 on a weekly close .
