It’s now trading below $67,000 and looks set for another low this week toward the $58,000 zone. There’s no major USD economic event scheduled, but one piece of news could impact the market — the Clarity Act.
~Will it pass? That’s still uncertain or For me Not this time. ~Impacts? Negative for the market! Banks are trying their best to protect the traditional system by limiting crypto use cases in their favor. The old banking system is full of flaws — but does that mean we need a gold-backed system where supply isn’t limited?
Is that even a fair deal?
Every system has its time. Either traditional banking adapts and accepts the real use case of cryptocurrencies — or it slowly fades.
What’s your opinion on this? And what about BTC’s drawdown — another bottom before a new high at $126,000?

$PIPPIN crashed — now trading around $0.56 on the charts.
I caught the early trade on Pippin. Held through the drawdown, did my DCA, and now I’m positioned well. Who’s still holding the last entry? Let me know in the comments.
Volatility is back, and this is where real traders step in — not panic sellers.

As of Feb 16, 2026, $BTC is on track for its worst first-quarter performance in the past 8 years. The market is down roughly 22.3% year-to-date, falling from a January open near $87,700 to around $68,000.
Q1 2026 Performance Breakdown:
This is the sharpest first-quarter drawdown since the 2018 bear market, when Bitcoin collapsed nearly 50% in three months.
•January: Closed with a 10.2% loss
•February (so far): Down 13.4%, putting BTC on track for its first-ever consecutive red January and February
•If weakness continues into March, this would mark the weakest Q1 since 2018, surpassing negative first quarters in 2025 (-11.8%) and 2020 (-10.8%).
~Market Sentiment & Technicals:
•Deleveraging: Analysts describe the move as an “orderly deleveraging,” with futures open interest dropping over 20%, reducing speculative exposure.
•Key Support: The $60,000–$65,000 zone remains critical. A break below could trigger heavy liquidations toward $55,000 or lower.
•Fear Index: The Crypto Fear & Greed Index stands at 8 (Extreme Fear), reflecting deeply bearish sentiment.
~What’s Next?
Historically, back-to-back negative first quarters have only occurred during major bear markets (2018 and 2022).
While February remains red, I expect a potential March recovery driven by historical resilience and institutional accumulation. Others warn that if the four-year cycle has peaked, 2026 could turn into a prolonged drawdown — or even a new crypto winter.
At what point do you think $BTC will stand? Is it heading toward $80K or dropping back below the $60K zone?
So how can we expect the next move — bullish or bearish?
In my POV, I’m still not fully clear. USDT dominance is holding above 7%, and that can be a deciding factor. I’m watching the weekly close closely. That will tell us whether we break the $71,500 resistance or print another lower low.
If we close above $69,000, we could see expansion toward $71,500 — but nothing is confirmed yet. I’m waiting for the weekly candle to close before making a decision.
Who’s waiting for the call?
First, I need your POV — with reasons. Why bullish or bearish?
Drop a "LIKE" and stay ready. This range won’t last long. Either a breakdown… or a breakout toward $78K–$80K..
$BTC with a relief rally back above $70,000 after a strong push from $64,000. So what happens next?
For now, we could see a test toward the $71,500 resistance, which ranges between $71,500–$72,000. That’s the real test. If price manages to break and hold above it, the next target sits around $78,000.
But I might be wrong — this may not be a full rally, just a relief bounce. We still have the $58,000 zone untouched below.

$BTC Major update!! Data dropped, Numbers came positive for risk.
Inflation cooled a bit. Rate pressure slightly eased. That’s automatically negative for USD and supportive for crypto + equities. When tightening expectations fade, liquidity breathes again.
But don’t get emotional.
The Epstein situation is still hurting confidence at a deeper level. Institutions don’t deploy heavy capital when uncertainty is floating in the background. That means moves can pump — but stability is fragile.
So what are we seeing right now?
A relief rally. Not a confirmed reversal.
Short-term liquidity expansion can push price higher. Yes. But structural trend flips only when confidence + macro align together.
That’s exactly why I said before the news: Close positions. Wait for fresh setups. Reset exposure.
Hope you followed that call.
In this market survival > ego. Trade less. Trail smart. Respect liquidity.
We move with structure — not with noise. #Crypto_LUX
$BTC $60K LEVEL — LIQUIDATION TRIGGER ZONE Bitcoin has approached a critical test at $60,000.
This isn’t just a psychological level. It’s where positioning, options, and leverage collide.
Deribit data shows the largest cluster of put options sitting below $60K, right near the 200-week moving average around $58K — a major technical support. Open interest in $60K puts stands at $1.24B.
If price breaks below that zone, forced selling becomes very real. Loans backed by BTC would start auto-liquidating collateral. That’s where deleveraging accelerates.
Bitcoin is trading around $67K, nearly 47% down from its October peak. A clean break below $60K/$58K opens the door toward $50K — where the second-largest put interest is stacked.
Sentiment is already heavy. If $60K fails, volatility expands fast.
Any bounce before that? Relief rally — fragile, not conviction.
What's your catch on this?

$COMP is going crazy 🔥 Quick scalp long! Clean impulse move and strong momentum behind it. Price is holding above the previous resistance zone and turning it into support — that’s strength.
Now the key level to watch is around 18.70–18.80. If that breaks with volume, continuation toward higher levels is very likely.
$RIVER gets to $24 and faces a solid rejection — what’s the next move?
For me, it’s a dead token unless we see a strong recovery above the $31 zone, with market cap pushing back over $1.8B. Only then we can expect real volatility and a proper FOMO-driven move. Right now, there’s no serious trader interest.
We’re ranging between last week’s low and today’s high at $24, which is acting as strong resistance. If you want to trade it, wait for clear direction first.
Who traded River in the past month?
For the rest of the traders, consider closing positions — CPI data is just around the corner, likely within the next hour. We’ll look for fresh setups after that.
