🆘 Cryptocurrency: The Great Game of Whales and the Trap for Retail Investors
The crypto market has always been presented as a financial revolution promising freedom from banks and regulators. However, the deeper you dive into it, the clearer it becomes: this is not a utopia of decentralization but a platform for a global financial game where not everyone wins. How does this market work?
🚀 Trump creates strategic cryptocurrency reserve for the USA – Bitcoin and Solana soar!
🔥 US President Donald Trump has issued an order to form a strategic cryptocurrency reserve, which will include XRP, Solana (SOL), and Cardano (ADA). Its goal is to turn the United States into a global crypto hub and strengthen the country's leadership in the field of digital assets.
📈 The market's reaction was immediate – following the announcement, the price of Bitcoin and Solana jumped upwards instantly!
💡 This move could become a turning point for the entire crypto industry, enhancing the trust of institutional investors and driving further market growth.
🔎 What does this mean for the crypto market? ✅ Legitimization of cryptocurrencies at the state level ✅ Increased interest from institutional investors ✅ Possible easing of regulations in the USA

🔥 $TRUMP drops: The image of the president and his coin couldn't withstand the crypto crisis
Not long ago, Donald Trump positioned himself as the 'crypto-president,' and his meme coin $TRUMP became a symbol of hope for the crypto community. But February 2025 put everything in its place.
📉 $TRUMP collapsed by 80% from its peak The coin that started with phenomenal growth and reached $75 is now worth pennies. The question is: if even Trump's own coin couldn't withstand his policies, what does that say about the entire crypto industry in the USA?
🆘 Crypto Shock 2025: Trump, Tariffs, and Market Decline 🆘
February 2025 was a serious test for the crypto market. Many expected Donald Trump's administration to lead America to the status of the cryptocurrency capital of the world. Instead, we are witnessing a market crash that has already wiped out over $1 trillion in capitalization.
What happened?
🔹 Tariff blow. New 25% tariffs on imports from China, Canada, and Mexico have heightened inflation risks and scared investors. Cryptocurrencies, being a risky asset, have been caught in a wave of mass sell-offs.
🔥 Bloodbath in the market: Bitcoin below $79,000, Ethereum broke $2,100! 🔥
The cryptocurrency market is once again shaken by a powerful wave of liquidations. In the last 24 hours, 222,901 traders were left out, and the total amount of liquidations reached $910 million.
🚨 Bitcoin has fallen below $79,000 – a level that many considered key support. 💀 Ethereum broke $2,100, and altcoins are sinking in a sea of red.
📉 Panic? Or is it just another volatility before a new surge? One thing is clear – the market does not forgive overconfidence. Those who survived this storm know: crypto is not just a game, but a test of resilience.
⚡️ SEC closed the case against the Gemini exchange – a victory for the crypto industry? ⚡️
The regulatory storm is calming down! 🌊 The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has discontinued its investigation into Gemini, without filing charges.
Cameron Winklevoss, co-founder of the exchange, stated that this is an important step towards the end of the “war on cryptocurrencies.” However, he assessed the damage done to the industry at hundreds of millions of dollars.
❗️ This is not the first case: recently, the SEC closed cases against Coinbase, OpenSea, Robinhood, and Uniswap. Coincidence? Or a new strategy from the regulator?
🇺🇸📊 US Economy: Growth Slowing, But Demand Holds Steady!
Recent data shows that the growth rate of the US economy is slowing: 🔹 GDP for the 4th quarter +2.3% (forecast matched, but below the previous 3.1%). 🔹 GDP sales remain stable at 3.2%, indicating sustained consumer demand.
📉 Labor Market Under Pressure The number of initial unemployment claims rose to 242 thousand (above the forecast of 222 thousand), which may indicate a weakening labor market.
🛒 Consumer Sector – Mixed Signals ✅ Orders for durable goods increased by 3.1% (forecast 2%, previous -1.8%). ❌ Orders for core goods – 0% (forecast 0.2%), indicating business caution.
💸 Inflationary Pressure Intensifies 🔴 GDP price index rose to 2.4% (forecast 2.2%). 🔴 PCE prices accelerated to 2.4%, and core to 2.7% (above expectations).
📌 Conclusion: The growth of the US economy is slowing, but inflation is regaining strength. This could change market expectations regarding Fed rate cuts. Whether to expect a soft policy is an open question.
🔥 The crypto market is in turmoil: who is losing and who is gaining?
The world is plunging into chaos. Geopolitical tensions are rising, Trump's loud statements are shaking financial markets, and wars continue to escalate the situation. All this creates a domino effect: investors are in panic, the stock market is stormy, and cryptocurrency is plunging.
📉 US housing market: first signs of a slowdown? 🏠🇺🇸
New home sales in January were 657,000, below the forecast of 679,000 and significantly lower than the previous figure of 734,000.
🔍 This may indicate a decrease in demand for housing, which is associated with high rates and general economic uncertainty.
📊 Tomorrow, labor market data will be released, which will help to understand: is this a temporary cooling or the first signs of a slowdown in the US economy?
The market is worried: the tariffs proposed by Trump and the delay in the creation of a strategic BTC reserve could have provoked a local peak and triggered a correction.
Over the past 24 hours, 365,658 traders were liquidated, and the total amount of liquidations reached $1.34 billion! 💥
The market has once again shown its ruthlessness: someone lost everything on their shoulders, and someone was waiting for this moment to enter at a better price. Such surges in liquidations often lead to sharp movements and can become a signal for a local reversal.
📉 Conclusion: manage risks, use stop losses and do not forget that only the patient and calculating remain in the market!
The crypto market is in decline, but there is still hope!
The latest market movements may be scary - falling quotes, fear and uncertainty. But let's remember: cryptocurrency has gone through crises more than once and returned to new heights.
Bitcoin and altcoins are not just assets, but technologies of the future. History shows that after each correction there was growth. The main thing is to keep cool, stick to your strategy and believe in the prospects.
As of February 10, 2025, the following key events have occurred in the cryptocurrency market:
1. Donald Trump signed an executive order on cryptocurrencies and central bank digital currencies
U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order aimed at regulating cryptocurrencies and developing a central bank digital currency (CBDC). This step underscores the government's growing attention to digital assets and their integration into the financial system.
💡 What does this mean? The number of claims is slightly above the forecast, but still remains at historically low levels. This indicates a strong labor market that supports economic growth.

🟢 ISM Services Price Index: 60.4 (previous value: 64.4)
💡 What does it mean? The decline in the index indicates a slowdown in service price growth. This may be a positive signal for inflation, but the number is still high, which is unlikely to change the Fed's stance.
