Good morning. Today the crypto market has taken an interesting breather after a week that has been quite tense. Regaining calm and sanity.

Here are some key points of what is moving today, February 12, 2026:

*1. The "Binance Effect" and the SAFU Fund.*

The strongest news in recent hours is that Binance completed the conversion of its Secure Asset Fund for Users (SAFU) entirely to Bitcoin.$BTC

• *The exchange purchased* nearly $304 million additional in $BTC to finalize the plan to have a reserve fund of $1 billion exclusively in the queen crypto.

• This move has injected institutional confidence, reinforcing the narrative that Bitcoin is the premier reserve asset.

*2. Bounce after the "Scare" of $70k.*

What we are seeing today seems to be a technical rebound after touching important support (around $67,000 - $68,000).

*3. Movements in Altcoins and Adoption.*

• BNB has been one of the big winners of the day with an increase close to 4%, driven by news from its ecosystem.

• *Ethereum $ETH and Riplex also show positive numbers (around 1% to 1.5%), recovering ground after the net outflows that the ETFs had yesterday.

• *United Kingdom:* The British Treasury selected HSBC's blockchain for a pilot program of digital bonds, adding points to "serious" institutional adoption.

• ⁠*Curious fact:* Although today we see green, the general sentiment remains one of "caution". Analysts are closely watching whether Bitcoin can consolidate again above $70,000 to confirm that the bullish trend has returned to stay.

Let's hope the trend continues and that this summary is to your liking.
