Non-Farm Data: Three Dimensions to Interpret the Deep Signals of the Employment Report
On February 11 (Wednesday) at 21:30 (Singapore time), the U.S. Labor Department will release the January non-farm employment report. This delayed data has been given far more attention than usual. Market analysts generally believe that this report is not only a key 'check-up' on the health of the U.S. labor market but may also become a decisive variable in reshaping market expectations for the Federal Reserve's monetary policy path.
1. Expectation Game After the Data Vacuum Period
Under normal circumstances, the non-farm report is a fixed market schedule at the beginning of each month. However, the delayed release of January data this year has created a rare information vacuum period. During this time, the market could only rely on 'high-frequency but non-deterministic' data such as ADP private employment and initial jobless claims to speculate, leading to a buildup of uncertainty.
Here are a few points worth noting in the AiCoin contract radar screenshot:
1. BTC bulls suddenly gained momentum, with a positive change in positions over 5 minutes, which is a rare strong bullish signal recently. 2. The meme coin PIPPIN saw a significant increase in bullish positions by +3.7, along with a price increase of +0.21%, indicating funds are rushing in. 3. DRIFT +2.1, XAG +1.9, with a noticeable influx of capital back into the DeFi and AI narrative sectors. 4. Conversely, FIL, XRP, and SOL experienced a reduction in positions of -2% to -8%, suggesting that bears are reducing or shifting positions, cautioning against potential pullback risks.
The greatest advantage of the AiCoin contract radar is its dual filtering of "time dimension" + "position changes": · 1-minute/5-minute ultra-short-term fluctuation alerts. · Sorted by change value, directly capturing the coins with the strongest capital flow. · Position budget alerts (I set it to 30 million), providing a clear view of large fund movements.
I strongly recommend that contract/spot quantitative players bookmark this interface; it truly allows you to see battlefield changes that others cannot anticipate.

The Night Before the ETH Storm: Severe Fluctuations Under Technical Triggers and Macro Tests
Event Review 📉
Recently, ETH experienced severe fluctuations in trading, with the price suddenly dropping from $2039 to $1997, a decline of over 2%. This series of movements was mainly due to the breach of technical support levels and the triggering of stop-losses by institutional positions, leading to an automatic sell-off chain reaction in the market. Meanwhile, the uncertainty surrounding macro policies and ongoing regulatory scrutiny has also shaken investor confidence, further intensifying risk-averse sentiment.
Timeline ⏱️
14:40 ETH price hovers around $2039, at which point indicators such as the lower Bollinger Band and MVRV Z-Score show that the market is entering the 'surrender zone', with automatic stop-losses triggered and institutional positions forced to liquidate.
Bithumb erroneously issues 620,000 Bitcoins, regulatory storm is coming!
A single employee's misclick in front of the computer led to the erroneous issuance of Bitcoin worth $44 billion to users, triggering a trust and regulatory crisis sweeping the South Korean cryptocurrency market.
On the evening of February 6, the operational interface of Bithumb, South Korea's second-largest cryptocurrency exchange, experienced an anomaly: the 620,000 Korean won reward that was supposed to be issued to users suddenly became 620,000 Bitcoins, with a total value of $44 billion.
The error was discovered within 20 minutes and an emergency response was initiated. After 35 minutes, 99.7% of the erroneously issued assets were recovered. However, the shockwave caused by this incident is still spreading.
The price of Bitcoin has experienced violent fluctuations at $1.25 billion in liquidations and regulatory crackdowns, as the market undergoes a difficult transition from 'faith-based trading' to 'value anchoring.'
Recently, the price of Bitcoin briefly fell below $60,000, down over 40% from last year's historical high of about $125,000 in October, marking the most severe crash since 2022. Just within a 24-hour period from February 6 to 7, about $1.25 billion in Bitcoin positions were forcibly liquidated.
The UK (Financial Times) published an article stating that Bitcoin is 'still severely overvalued, and a crash is imminent,' questioning the value bottom of an 'asset sustained solely by fantasies.' Meanwhile, research reports from institutions like Citibank predict that, driven by structural factors such as ETFs, Bitcoin could return to six-figure territory by 2026.
1. The central bank and 8 other departments issued document No. 42, clarifying the regulatory path for RWA and stablecoins.
The People's Bank of China, the National Development and Reform Commission, and 8 other departments jointly issued a notice (on further preventing and addressing risks related to virtual currencies, Document No. [2026] 42) that clearly includes the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA) and stablecoins within the regulatory scope. The document specifies the functional restrictions of stablecoins pegged to fiat currencies, prohibits the issuance of stablecoins pegged to the Renminbi without approval, and defines RWA as activities that convert asset rights through cryptographic technology. Regulatory responsibilities are implemented through a dual-track system, with the central bank taking the lead on virtual currencies and the China Securities Regulatory Commission leading on RWA, further solidifying local regulatory responsibilities. The document also strengthens regulatory requirements for intermediary institutions, technology service providers, and domestic financial institutions' overseas businesses, and clarifies the legal responsibilities and compliance standards for overseas issued tokens. - Original text
Where is the bottom for BTC? It evaporated 10,000 points overnight; can we really trust a volume-less rebound?
Family, the recent market conditions are really so exciting that it's hard to sleep! It's not the excitement of rising, but the shock of falling — a comprehensive correction, precious metals and risk assets are diving together, and the crypto market is even more unbearable to watch. BTC has wiped out all the gains from the Trump 2.0 era; who can withstand this!
Last week, BTC was still hovering around 60,000, but then it plummeted by 10,000 points overnight, and when I woke up, it felt like the sky was falling!
ETH isn't doing any better; on-chain demand is weak, and to make matters worse, the founder is still reducing holdings. Last week, it fell below the 1,800 mark and has dropped nearly 30% this month. SOL, being a high-beta asset, is still somewhat active on-chain, but the volatility is frightening; it once dropped to 67.5. Who would have thought that standing above 200 seemed like just yesterday!

Recently, the Bitcoin market has experienced a wave of dramatic fluctuations, as the entire situation seems to be constantly rising and falling in the battle between emotions and capital power. Around the opening, from the massive reports by institutions triggering market panic, to large players withdrawing funds and adjusting positions, and then to retail investors and oversold buying entering the market, the BTC price has frequently surged and corrected.

Shortly after, the BTC price climbed from $68,200 to nearly $69,800 within just 15 minutes, demonstrating the rapid intervention of oversold buying in response to panic sentiment.
