MUMBAI, Feb 9 - Indian foreign exchange traders will watch foreign portfolio inflows this week to see whether the rupee's rally, sparked by last Monday's U.S.-India trade deal announcement, could extend meaningfully.
In fixed income, bond market investors will monitor demand-supply dynamics, which could prove key in determining the direction of bond yields.
The rupee closed at 90.6550 on Friday, up over 1% on the week.
The U.S. and India unveiled an interim trade framework on Friday, building on an initial announcement earlier last week. While the breakthrough has lifted sentiment on Indian assets, analysts remain cautious about its impact on portfolio flows.
Foreign investors have net bought nearly $900 million of Indian stocks so far in February, after pulling $4 billion last month, though they have sold $19 billion so far in 2025.
While the currency (INR) could trade more stably for a while, especially if the drawdown in risk extends, spot upside is likely to prove limited," analysts at Goldman Sachs said in a note.
In global markets, the focus this week will be on the release of key U.S. economic data alongside reactions to elections outcomes in Japan and Thailand.
BONDS
The 10-year benchmark 6.48% 2035 yield settled at 6.7363% on Friday, notching its second consecutive weekly rise, after the Reserve Bank of India's monetary policy decision.
The central bank held rates at 5.25% as expected but offered no fresh liquidity support. Traders had expected tweaks to liquidity rules to ease deposit tightness amid rising yields and credit growth.
Traders expect the yield to move in a 6.71%–6.80% range this week, with sellers in the driving seat. On Friday,
With the budget and the central bank policy behind, the market focus will be on debt supply.The MPC is set for a prolonged pause, with the RBI focusing on liquidity via open market purchases and FX swaps, though higher FY27 borrowing could add upward pressure on yields, said Puneet Pal, PGIM India MF.
India aims to gross borrow a record 17.20 trillion rupees ($189.70 billion) next financial year, with net borrowing of 11.73 trillion rupees. India's financial year starts in April and runs through March.#BTCMiningDifficultyDrop #WhenWillBTCRebound #USIranStandoff #JPMorganSaysBTCOverGold #DPWatch

يمثل مؤتمر ريبل علامة فارقة رئيسية حيث يحصل المسؤولون التنفيذيون في XRP على وصول مباشر إلى صانعي السياسات المتعلقة بالعملات المشفرة في الولايات المتحدة والمناقشات الفيدرالية
حققت شركة Ripple إنجازًا جديدًا عبر تأمين وصول مباشر إلى صانعي السياسات في الولايات المتحدة. ففي 3 فبراير 2026، حضر مسؤولون تنفيذيون من الشركة قمة في البيت الأبيض حول تنظيم العملات المشفرة، وهي خطوة تمثل اعترافًا كبيرًا بالشركة في واشنطن
تشير هذه الفعالية إلى تنامي نفوذ Ripple في تشكيل سياسات العملات المشفرة في الولايات المتحدة، ما يضعها في صميم النقاشات الوطنية حول البلوكشين والأصول الرقمية.

سنوات من المناصرة تؤتي ثمارها
لم يحدث حضور Ripple في واشنطن بين ليلة وضحاها. فقد أمضت الشركة سنوات في الدعوة إلى وضع قواعد أكثر وضوحًا للعملات المشفرة. ومنذ عام 2024، قدمت Ripple أكثر من 50 مليون دولار كمساهمات سياسية.

وضعت هذه الجهود شركة Ripple ورمزها الرقمي XRP على مسار محتمل نحو وضوح تنظيمي أكبر. كما منحها انتصار جزئي على هيئة الأوراق المالية والبورصات الأميركية (SEC) في عام 2023 أفضلية في المناقشات الجارية. ويعد حضور قمة البيت الأبيض أحدث خطوة ضمن استراتيجية طويلة الأجل تهدف إلى تأمين سياسات مواتية.

تفاعل المجتمع: مكاسب استراتيجية تفوق تحركات الأسعار
جاء رد فعل مجتمع الكريبتو إيجابيًا، مع التركيز على المكاسب الاستراتيجية طويلة الأجل بدلًا من تغيرات الأسعار قصيرة المدى. ويرى كثيرون في ذلك إشارة إلى أن شركات البلوكشين بدأت أخيرًا تحظى باعتراف باعتبارها جهات فاعلة جادة في عملية صنع القرار الفيدرالي.

يراقب المستثمرون والمهتمون التطورات عن كثب، لكن التركيز ليس على المكاسب الفورية. بل ينصب الاهتمام على تزايد شرعية Ripple ونفوذها، وهو ما قد يمهد الطريق لاعتماد أكثر سلاسة وقواعد أوضح لـ XRP وغيرها من الرموز.

موقع Ripple في مشهد السياسات
من خلال مشاركتها في الحوار داخل البيت الأبيض، أصبحت Ripple الآن ضمن أبرز المؤثرين في السياسات الأميركية. ويمنح ذلك الشركة فرصة لعرض وجهة نظرها بشأن تنظيم العملات المشفرة بشكل مباشر.

ويرى خبراء أن نهج Ripple قد يشكل نموذجًا لشركات البلوكشين الأخرى التي تسعى إلى الاندماج بشكل أكبر في النقاشات الحكومية. فقد جعلها مزيج الانتصارات القانونية والمساهمات السياسية والمناصرة النشطة صوتًا يحظى بالاحترام في الجدل الدائر حول سياسات الأصول الرقمية.

دور Ripple في القرارات الفيدرالية المتعلقة بالكريبتو
يؤكد حضور Ripple قمة البيت الأبيض على التداخل المتزايد بين قطاع الكريبتو والسياسات الحكومية. وبالنسبة لحاملي XRP وداعمي البلوكشين، تعد هذه إشارة إلى أن الصناعة تمضي نحو النضج.

ومع استمرار الولايات المتحدة في تطوير قواعد أوضح للعملات المشفرة، قد يسهم نفوذ Ripple في تشكيل قرارات تؤثر في القطاع بأكمله. وعلى المدى الطويل، قد تمثل هذه الفعالية نقطة تحول لكل من Ripple وشركات البلوكشين الساعية إلى اعتراف فيدرالي.

Binance has added 1,350 Bitcoin worth approximately $102 million to its SAFU Fund, further strengthening its user protection reserves.

The SAFU Fund is designed to safeguard users during extreme market events or security incidents. This latest allocation increases the fund’s Bitcoin exposure, reinforcing BTC’s role as a core reserve asset within Binance’s risk management strategy.

Analysts say the move signals continued confidence in Bitcoin as a long term reserve and highlights how major exchanges are prioritizing balance sheet resilience and user protection amid ongoing market volatility.

Traders Lean Bearish: Glassnode Reports Net Shorting of 240 BTC
​The Bitcoin market is flashing a "caution" sign as the latest data from Glassnode reveals a shift in derivatives sentiment. In a recent market pulse, traders have moved into a net short position of 240 BTC, signaling a growing defensive posture among leveraged participants.
​The Data Breakdown: Why 240 BTC Matters
​While 240 BTC might seem like a drop in the ocean compared to Bitcoin's total market cap, the "net" figure represents the balance of aggressive market orders. When this number flips negative, it indicates that short sellers are currently more aggressive than buyers in the perpetual futures market.

Sentiment Shift: This move follows a period of "fragile consolidation" where Bitcoin has struggled to maintain support near the $74K–$76K levels.
​Perpetual CVD (Cumulative Volume Delta): Glassnode’s data shows that Perpetual CVD has deteriorated, confirming that sell-side dominance is being driven by leveraged traders rather than just spot hold

​Funding Rates: With traders net shorting, funding rates have cooled significantly, removing the "froth" from the market but also suggesting a lack of immediate bullish conviction.
​📝Market Context: Risk-Off Regime

​The net shorting activity aligns with a broader "risk-off" sentiment observed across the crypto ecosystem this week.
​Institutional De-risking: Recent ETF outflows have added pressure to the spot price, making it easier for shorts to seize control of the narrative.👇​Oversold RSI: Despite the bearish positioning, the 14-day RSI is plunging into oversold territory. In crypto, a high concentration of shorts combined with oversold conditions often sets the stage for a "Short Squeeze" if a sudden burst of buying volume returns
​What to Watch Next👉
​For Binance traders, the key level to watch is the $74,000 support zone. If Bitcoin fails to defend this area, the net shorting trend could accelerate. However, if price action stabilizes, those 240 BTC in net shorts could become "fuel" for a recovery as traders are forced to buy back their positions.

The crypto market is facing broad selling pressure, with , , , , and all down together. When majors move in sync like this, it signals macro and liquidity-driven weakness, not project-specific bad news.
1️⃣ Bitcoin Pullback Triggered Risk-Off Sentiment
Bitcoin’s drop below key short-term support has flipped market sentiment bearish. Large traders are locking profits after recent rallies, and once BTC weakens, altcoins typically fall harder due to lower liquidity and higher risk exposure.
2️⃣ Leverage Flush & Liquidations
A sharp move down usually wipes out over-leveraged long positions. As BTC and ETH dipped, forced liquidations accelerated selling, pushing prices lower across the board — especially high-beta coins like SOL.
3️⃣ Weak Volume = No Dip Buyers
Current volume shows buyers are stepping back, waiting for clearer confirmation. Without strong spot demand, even small sell orders push prices down faster.
4️⃣ Macro Pressure Still in Play
Global markets remain cautious due to:
Uncertainty around interest rate cuts
Strong USD strength
Risk-off behavior in equities
Crypto, being a risk asset, reacts quickly when traditional markets turn defensive.
5️⃣ Altcoins Bleeding More Than Bitcoin
Coins like SOL and ETH are seeing deeper drops because:
Higher speculative positioning
Faster profit-taking
Reduced rotation from BTC into alts
This is typical during short-term market corrections.
🧠 What This Means for Traders
This looks like a healthy correction, not a market collapse
Smart money usually accumulates during fear phases
Chasing trades in red candles is risky — patience pays
📌 Key Focus:
Watch BTC dominance, volume return, and support holds. A stable Bitcoin often leads to an altcoin recovery.

In a market full of fast trends and short-lived hype, very few projects focus on building quietly, consistently, and correctly. This is exactly where @Walrus 🦭/acc stands out. Instead of chasing temporary attention, Walrus is designing an ecosystem that prioritizes scalability, efficiency, and real-world usability.
What makes Walrus interesting is not loud promises, but its approach to infrastructure-first development. Strong foundations matter in crypto, and Walrus seems to understand that long-term value is created when technology and community grow together. This is why $WAL is slowly gaining attention from users who prefer substance over noise.
Another key factor is community engagement. Walrus isn’t just about a token — it’s about participation, contribution, and shared growth. Projects that survive market cycles are those that empower their users, and Walrus is clearly moving in that direction.
Many will notice Walrus late. Some are noticing it now. The difference between the two is often timing — and awareness.

In Crypto, patience is skill - and ignorance expensive.
Not every dip deserves your money, and not every pump deserves your trust.

Don't move only on logic; they move on emotion. Fear creates fake dips. Greed creates fake pumps. If you chase every move without understanding the why, you're not trading - you're gambling.

Before growing your portfolio, grow your knowledge.
Understand market structure, volume, trend, strength, and sentiment. Smart traders wait for confirmation; emotional traders rush in because of FOMO.

Greed whispers. ''Don't miss this''
Discipline replies. ''There will always be another trade.''

Small wins matter. Consistency matters. Survival matters.
You don't need to double your account overnight - you need to protect it long enough to grow.

Trading is mentally tough. Losses test you. Silence tests you.
But every lesson makes you sharper - if you let it.

Avoid FOMO. Control greed. Respect risk. Enjoy small wins. Appreciate yourself. Keep learning.

No matter how hard it gets. -
Stay sharp. Stay focused. Stay in the game 🚀

$BTC $XRP $SOL The crypto market has taken a brutal hit as over $130,000,000,000 vanished from the total market cap within a single day. This isn’t just a dip — it’s a clear risk-off signal shaking the entire ecosystem.
Let’s break it down 👇
🔎 Total Crypto Market Cap Overview
📉 The total crypto market cap dropped nearly 4–5%, confirming strong selling pressure across the board.
📊 Bitcoin dominance remains high (58–59%), showing that capital is fleeing altcoins and moving toward relative safety — or exiting crypto entirely.
⚠️ This kind of contraction usually reflects fear-driven liquidity outflows, not just normal profit-taking.
📉 Altcoins Under Heavy Pressure
🔻 XRP & Solana are trading well below recent highs, contributing heavily to the market-wide drawdown.
🔻 BNB and other major alts have also pulled back as traders reduce exposure and tighten risk.
💥 Altcoins remain highly sensitive to Bitcoin’s next move — volatility is far from over.
📌 Critical Levels Traders Must Watch
🟠 Bitcoin (BTC)
• Support: $70,000 – $72,000
• Resistance: $78,000 – $80,000
👉 A break below support could accelerate downside, while a reclaim of resistance may trigger a short-term relief bounce.
🔵 Ethereum (ETH)
• Support: ~$2,100
• Resistance: ~$2,300
ETH remains technically weak unless buyers defend the $2.1k zone.
🟣 XRP & 🟢 SOL
• Both remain BTC-dependent
• Expect sharp reactions on any BTC breakout or breakdown
🧠 Market Summary (Short-Term Outlook)
✅ BTC trading around $72k–$76k
✅ ETH hovering near $2.1k–$2.2k
✅ XRP near $1.47, SOL around $91
❗ Market sentiment is clearly risk-off, driven by: • Liquidity tightening
• Macro uncertainty
• Key technical breakdowns
💣 The $130B market cap loss confirms broad de-risking, not a single-coin event.
❓Final Question for Traders:
Is this a panic-driven shakeout before a bounce — or the start of a deeper correction? 🤔📊

Read This Before Your Next Trade

Most traders don’t lose money because the market is “rigged.”
They lose because they risk capital before understanding what they’re actually risking.

Charts look simple. Indicators look powerful. Profits on social media look effortless.
But the truth is ➜ capital is not just money — it’s your opportunity, psychology, and survival in the market.

Before you place your next trade, especially in crypto’s high-volatility environment, there are foundational truths every serious trader must understand. Miss even one of them, and no strategy will save you.

Let’s break it down — clearly, practically, and honestly.

① Capital Is Ammunition, Not Income

✔︎ Your trading capital is not disposable cash
✔︎ It’s the fuel that keeps you in the game

Every trade should answer one question:
➤ If this trade fails, can I still trade tomorrow?

Professional traders think in risk units, not profits.
They protect capital first — profits come later.

② Risk Management Is More Important Than Entry

◆ A perfect entry with poor risk management = eventual failure
◆ An average entry with strict risk control = long-term survival

Before clicking “Buy” or “Sell,” you must know:
➜ Where is my invalidation?
➜ How much am I losing if I’m wrong?
➜ Is the risk justified by the reward?

If you can’t answer these in advance, you’re not trading — you’re gambling.

③ The Market Owes You Nothing

① Losses don’t mean the market is against you
② Wins don’t mean you’re a genius

Crypto markets are neutral.
They don’t reward hope, emotions, or opinions — only execution and discipline.

Once you accept this, emotional trading starts to fade.

④ Your Psychology Will Be Tested More Than Your Strategy

✔︎ Fear makes you exit early
✔︎ Greed makes you overstay
✔︎ Ego makes you overtrade

Most traders don’t blow accounts because of bad strategies.
They blow them because they can’t follow their own rules.

Trading is a mental performance game.
If you can’t control yourself, no indicator can help you.

⑤ Leverage Multiplies Skill — and Mistakes

➤ Leverage doesn’t create profits
➤ It magnifies what already exists

If your execution is poor, leverage accelerates losses.
If your discipline is weak, leverage exposes it instantly.

Before using leverage, ask:
◆ Am I consistently profitable without it?
◆ Can I handle drawdowns calmly?

If not, leverage will punish you.

⑥ Every Trade Is a Probability, Not a Prediction

✔︎ You are not here to be right
✔︎ You are here to manage outcomes

Professional traders think in series of trades, not single results. One loss means nothing. One win means nothing.

Consistency is built over hundreds of disciplined executions.

⑦ Survival Comes Before Growth

➜ Missed opportunities are better than blown accounts
➜ Patience is a position

The market will always be here. Your capital won’t — if you don’t protect it.

The traders who survive bear markets are the ones who dominate bull markets.

Trade Like Capital Matters — Because It Does

Before risking capital, understand this clearly:

✔︎ Protect first, grow second
✔︎ Control risk before chasing reward
✔︎ Master yourself before trying to master the market

Trading success isn’t about secret strategies.
It’s about respecting capital, managing risk, and staying disciplined when emotions peak.

If this changed the way you think about trading:
➤ Comment your biggest trading lesson
➤ Share this with a trader who needs to hear it

Because the traders who last…
are the ones who understand risk before risking capital.

$BTC Bitcoin has now crashed -53% in just 120 days without any major negative news or event and this is not normal.
Macro pressure plays a role, but it’s not the main reason Bitcoin keeps dumping. The real driver is something much bigger that most people aren’t talking about yet.
Bitcoin’s original valuation model was built on the idea that supply is fixed at 21 million coins and that price moves based on real buying and selling of those coins. In the early cycles, this was mostly true. But today, that structure has changed.
A large share of Bitcoin trading activity now happens through synthetic markets rather than spot markets.
This includes:
• Futures contracts
• Perpetual swaps
• Options markets
• ETFs
• Prime broker lending
• Wrapped BTC
• Structured products
All of these allow exposure to Bitcoin’s price without requiring actual Bitcoin to move on chain. This changes how price is discovered because now selling pressure can come from derivative positioning rather than real holders selling coins.
For example:
If institutions open large short positions in futures markets, price can fall even if no spot Bitcoin is sold.
If leveraged long traders get liquidated, forced selling happens through derivatives, accelerating downside moves. This creates cascade effects where liquidations drive price, not spot supply.
That is why recent sell offs look very structured. You see long liquidation waves, funding flips negative, open interest collapses, all signs that derivatives positioning is driving the move.
So while Bitcoin’s hard cap has not changed, the effective tradable supply influencing price has expanded through synthetic exposure.
Price today reacts to leverage, hedging flows, and positioning, not just spot demand.
Adding to this, there are other factors too driving the current dump.
GLOBAL ASSET SELL-OFF
Right now, selling is not isolated to crypto. Stocks are declining. Gold and silver have seen volatility. Risk assets across markets are correcting.
When global markets move into risk-off mode, capital exits high-risk assets first and crypto sits at the far end of the risk curve. So Bitcoin reacts more aggressively to global sell offs.
MACRO UNCERTAINTY & GEOPOLITICAL RISK
Tensions around global conflicts, especially U.S.–Iran developments, are creating uncertainty.
Whenever geopolitical risk rises, supply chain risks increase, and markets shift toward defensive positioning. That environment is not supportive for risk assets.
FED LIQUIDITY EXPECTATIONS
Markets had been pricing a more dovish liquidity backdrop. But expectations around future policy leadership and liquidity stance have shifted.
If investors believe future Fed policy will be tighter on liquidity even if rates eventually fall, risk assets reprice lower.
ECONOMIC DATA WEAKNESS
Recent economic indicators job market trends, housing demand, credit stress are pointing toward slowing growth conditions. When recession fears rise, markets derisk.
Crypto, being the most volatile asset class, sees outsized downside during those transitions.
STRUCTURED SELLING VS CAPITULATION
Another important observation:
This sell off does not look like panic capitulation. It looks structured.
Consecutive red candles, controlled downside moves, and derivative driven liquidations suggest large entities reducing exposure, not retail panic selling.
When institutional positioning unwinds, it suppresses bounce attempts because dip buyers wait for stability before re-entering.
PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER
It is a combination of:
• Derivatives driven price discovery
• Synthetic supply exposure
• Global risk-off flows
• Liquidity expectation shifts
• Geopolitical uncertainty
• Weak macro data
• Institutional positioning unwind
Until these pressures stabilize, relief rallies can happen, but sustained upside becomes harder.
