The Buzzing Bee

BTC is hovering near $67.6K, and sentiment has shifted decisively into Extreme Fear. Yet price hasn’t collapsed. That divergence matters. When fear spikes but structure holds, the market is usually in one of two phases:
1. Late stage distribution before a breakdown
2. Final leverage washout before reversal
The weekly close will decide which.
📉 The Bearish Case: Weekly Close Below $60K
For bitcoin to close under $60K, three things likely need to happen:
1. A decisive loss of the $64K–$65K demand zone
2. Rising sell side volume into the weekend
3. Derivatives funding flipping deeply negative with sustained open interest expansion
A break below $60K would confirm a weekly lower low and shift structure into medium term bearish continuation. That opens liquidity pockets in the mid-$50Ks, where prior consolidation occurred. But right now, that breakdown hasn’t happened.

📈 The Bullish Case: Weekly Reclaim Above $70K
The more interesting scenario is a push back above $70K before weekly settlement. Why?
1. $70K is both psychological resistance and a structural pivot
2. A weekly close above it invalidates the recent breakdown attempt
3. It would mark a reclaim of the prior range high
Technically, BTC is compressing between $64K support and $70K resistance. Compression in high fear environments often resolves violently. If bulls defend $65K and force a short squeeze into the close, $70K+ becomes realistic.
So Which Is More Likely?
A weekly close above $60K is highly probable given current structure.
2. A close above $70K is possible but requires momentum expansion.
3. A close below $60K would require fresh downside catalysts and sustained selling pressure (not currently evident).

Copy Trading is one feature on the Crypto market . An entirely unique trading method, that allows users to benefit from the experience of expert traders and make profit from their knowledge.
The copy trading option is designed for beginners who have not learnt how to trade. In the copy trading option, you do not need to be an expert on cryptocurrencies to make profit on them, in fact you do not need to know much about Crypto trading to make money, all you need do is follow expert traders with an amount of capital and make money off their trades.
The copy trading option also provides beginners interested in Crypto trading, with an opportunity to learn, as they are able to observe the trades made by experts they follow, and this gives them a chance to analyse successful trades and incorporate the experts trading style so that your expert will not blow up your account with a series of losses or a single mistake.
Your expert is not responsible for your losses.
It is easy to believe that your expert trader is acting in your best interest.
Wake up, buddy ‼
They are interested first in their commission and bonuses.
They may even have no feelings or consideration for the people that are copying their trades.
They will execute trades based on their own personal goals, target, and risk appetite.
You definitely don't want to put your financial situation at the mercy of some random expert.
That is why you must only fund your account with only an amount that you can afford to lose should in case.
Beware of dubious traders
Most times, you don't know anything about these experts.
That means the only way to check their competence is via their track records on the exchange.
Some of them will use different means to make their accounts appealing to you.
That is why you need to be careful and try to track and analyze the trades to learn what they are doing.
Even if there is nothing out of the ordinary with their trades, you should still strive to learn from them.
And strive to become an expert too if you want to go that line and manage your trades by yourself.
Copy trading can be a fast route to making money with crypto trading if you find the right expert(s) to follow.
But it will be unwise to think that nothing can go wrong because, after all, they're experts.
Copy trading refers to the act of using the same trading strategy as another person.
In this case, when the trader you are copying buys, you buy. And when they sell you sell. SIMPLE AS THAT .
Using the same entry, stop loss, and exit points.
This process can be automatic or manual. Depending on whether your exchange supports it or not.
If it is manual, you have to enter the trades by yourself. Using the signal provided by the expert. If the exchange supports it, then you can set it up and forget it.
The system will enter and close the same trades as the expert you're copying.
So, when the expert makes a profit you also make a profit and when they lose a trade you lose too.
For every winning trade, the expert takes a small commission that ranges between 5% to 40%. Depending on the platform, and the trader.
This commission rate is set by the expert traders themselves or the exchange. Again, depending on the platform.
So you will do well to find out what the commission rate is on each platform before you plunge in.
💫 The risks with copy trading
From the discussion, it looks like copy trading is an easy way to make money without doing anything.
But is it ⁉️
Is it the ultimate passive income opportunity that will finally make you rich⁉️
Not exactly...
There are a few things you must consider before jumping into copying an "expert's" trades.
💎 Picking the right expert trader
How do you pick a good trader that will not help you lose your money⁉️
And, no, they are not above and beyond losses.
Even the best of the best traders lost money sometimes.
Sometimes, they can even go on a losing streak that may be hard for you to recover from. Or make a single wrong move that will put your entire account balance at risk.
That is why you need to pick a trader that match your risk tolerance.
And then set up a strong fund management strategy on your own account.
🚀 In the end, you still have to do your own research (DYOR) and start with small capital.
🔹️Only follow traders that have similar risk appetite as you.
🚨 And don't forget to track and analyse their trades to see what they are doing.
Learning what they're doing wrong or right can put you in a position to start trading by yourself or pick better traders to follow next time.

Bitcoin’s action this week is telling, not because it’s bullish, but because it speaks to sentiment exhaustion.
We just saw the Crypto Fear and Greed Index on CoinMarketCap hit some of its lowest levels of the year, and over the last 90 days has barely budged out of extreme pessimism.
Yesterday: Extreme Fear - 8
Last Week: Extreme Fear - 5
On December 15, 2018, BTC reached a low of $3,023 while the Fear & Greed Index registered 11.
On March 17, 2020, BTC hit $3,897 with the index at 8.
On June 18, 2022, BTC fell to $17,420, with the index reading 6.$
Most recently, on February 12, 2026, BTC traded around $67,293 while the Fear & Greed Index showed 5.
These readings aren’t noise. They reflect a market that’s been grinding lower with minimal conviction.
Since the recent breakdown attempts, $BTC has been dancing between key levels. The real story now is in the weekly close dynamics, will we confirm sub-60K pressure, or find enough support to push back toward 70K?
Here’s what stands out: The Fear & Greed Index signaling extreme fear often precedes volatility compressions, not immediate rallies.
Price behavior near macro support levels shows buyers aren’t capitulating wholesale, even amid fear.
But liquidity conditions remain tight and macro headwinds aren’t gone. This feels less like confirmation of a new leg and more like a market seeking balance between exhausted sellers and cautious buyers.

If BTC stabilizes above critical levels and fear begins to thaw, sentiment could improve quickly. If not, we stay range bound and choppy markets test conviction.
For now this is a narrative of relief, not manage risk. Observe how levels hold. And remember: markets turn not when fear disappears, but when selling pressure finally stops.

The crypto market is currently going through a massive sell off that has wiped out over $400 billion in total value in a very short amount of time. After Bitcoin reached its peak of $126,000, it recently dropped toward the $60,000 range, which is a 52% decline from its all time high.
This isn't just a random price dip, it is the result of several specific economic factors and trading mechanics happening at the same time, bringing the total market cap down below the $2.5 trillion mark.
The primary reason for the drop started with changes in global trade policy. Recently, the introduction of new, high tariffs created a lot of uncertainty in the traditional stock and bond markets. When investors get worried about the economy, they usually sell their riskiest assets first to move their money into cash or government bonds. Because cryptocurrency is still seen as a high risk investment, it was the first thing large institutional investors sold off to protect their capital.

This initial selling caused a chain reaction in the way people trade. Many retail and professional traders were using high leverage, which means they were trading with borrowed money. When you trade with leverage, the exchange will automatically sell your position if the price drops to a certain point to make sure the debt is covered. In a single 24-hour period, about $1.4 billion worth of these positions were liquidated.
Each time a position was forced to sell, it pushed the price down further, which then triggered even more automatic sales. We are also seeing a major shift in how the new Bitcoin ETFs are performing. For months, these funds were seeing hundreds of millions of dollars in new money every day, which kept the price stable.
However, that trend recently reversed. In one week, these ETFs saw nearly $900 million move out of the funds. When the biggest buyers in the market stop buying and start selling, there isn't enough demand to keep the price from falling.
Psychology has played a huge role in the speed of this crash. Traders look at specific numbers, like $70,000 or $68,500, as "support levels" where they expect the price to stay. When the price fell straight through those numbers, it caused a lot of people to panic. The "Fear and Greed Index," which tracks how investors are feeling, plummeted from a high of 85 (meaning people were very greedy) down 9, signaling a state of extreme fear. This fear causes regular people to sell their holdings because they are afraid the price will go even lower.
Right now, the market is essentially resetting. The people who were gambling with borrowed money have been forced out, and the price is looking for a new stable floor. While it is a difficult time for anyone holding crypto, these types of pullbacks are common after a long period of growth.
The market is currently waiting to see if the global economic situation improves before the next group of buyers feels comfortable stepping back in.

AI Agents have surpassed ordinary Memecoins and are becoming an important sector. Since around the end of January, platforms like Moltbook, where AI Agents communicate and argue with each other, have become popular, leading to an increase in the momentum of AI Tokens. Therefore, tokens related to AI are emerging as cryptocurrencies to watch in 2026. Let's explore which cryptocurrencies among them deserve more attention.
In 2026, FET will be the lifeblood of the Artificial Superintelligence (ASI) Alliance, transforming from an ordinary token into a major player in the AI space. By merging three previously independent large AI projects, $FET has become one of the most powerful AI Tokens. Fetch.ai (FET) excels in creating AI capable of making autonomous decisions. SingularityNET (AGIX) offers AI related services that can be traded without central control. Ocean Protocol (OCEAN) is strong in sharing data for AI training. When combined, FET is set to emerge as the only Decentralized AI that can compete with the AI dominance of Big Tech companies like Google, Microsoft, and Meta.
VIRTUAL (Virtuals Protocol) is the fastest growing platform in the AI Agent sector from late 2025 to 2026. It serves as a Base Layer for creating, owning, and profiting from AI Agents and digital avatars. Its primary goal is to enable AI Agents to coexist with humans in gaming, social media, and finance. VIRTUAL also includes many unique systems not found in other AI projects. When a person creates an AI Agent, a separate token is issued for that Agent, allowing investors who purchase that token to become co owners and share in the Agent’s profits.
$TAO (Bittensor) is emerging as the Bitcoin of AI, regarded as Digital Gold in the Crypto and AI realm, and is building a better ecosystem than before. Bittensor is a network that connects AI models globally to create a decentralized brain. Unlike companies like Google and OpenAI that control AI, it allows individuals to contribute their AI models or computing power and receive TAO Tokens as rewards.
NEAR (Near Protocol) has successfully transformed from a basic Layer-1 Blockchain into a blockchain focused on AI in 2026. Its main goal is to ensure that Big Tech companies don't control user data and AI, but rather allow individuals to securely use their own AI on the blockchain.
NEAR’s technology enables users to write smart contracts, transfer tokens, and manage their portfolios simply through conversation. For users, it operates like a regular app without needing to understand whether it’s blockchain or something else, while AI and crypto work behind the scenes. Given its ability to efficiently process data for millions of AI users at lower costs, it’s a project with significant long term potential.
RENDER (Render Network) is a project that primarily supports raw power in the AI field and has successfully transitioned from basic 3D rendering to AI compute infrastructure. Render Network aggregates unused GPUs worldwide and rents them to those in need. As RENDER, it provides AI Agents and Large Language Models at affordable prices and helps create time efficient solutions for Hollywood films, advertisements, and 3D needs for the VR/AR and Metaverse worlds.
The 2026 Crypto Market may be shaken by political turmoil, but AI Agent Tokens are positioned to become the core pillars of the future financial system.
In 2026, Crypto is no longer just a game. AI Agents are driving a real economy, and the market's reaction to political control from the White House could present buying opportunities or merely times to watch, depending on one's risk tolerance.
Due to the strong foundation of AI technology, these tokens are likely to lead the way when they rebound, but given the inherent volatility in crypto prices, it’s essential to invest only what you can afford to lose.

The temporary stability has shattered. After drifting sideways between $68,000 and $72,000 for several days, Bitcoin finally lost its footing earlier today, tumbling below the $67,000 mark for the first time since Friday. This downward momentum has dragged the broader market with it, forcing Ethereum under $2,000, XRP below $1.40, and leaving BNB fighting to keep its head above $600.
BTC Slips Below $67K
It’s safe to say that the past couple of weeks have been highly unfavorable for the crypto bulls. On January 28, exactly two weeks ago, bitcoin stood tall at $90,000. However, it charted a notable price correction since then that lasted days and culminated, at least for now, last Friday.
At the time, the cryptocurrency plunged by approximately $17,000 in just over 24 hours and dumped to $60,000 on Friday morning. This became its lowest price point since before the US presidential elections in November 2024. The bulls were quick to intervene at this point and helped BTC rebound to $72,000 on that same day.
The weekend was calmer, with bitcoin trading sideways between $68,000 and $72,000. It tried to take down the upper boundary but failed on Monday and Tuesday and the subsequent rejection drove it south to under $67,000 where it currently struggles as well.
Its market capitalization has declined to $1.340 trillion on CG, while its dominance over the alts has dropped below 57%.
Total Liquidations in the last 24 hours is approximately $397 million across the entire crypto market.
Alts Back in Red
Most alts have suffered even more over the past day. Ethereum has lost the $2,000 support after a 3.2% decline. A 4.1% drop from XRP has driven it to well below $1.40, while $BNB is down to $600 after a 5% decrease.

SOL, $ADA , HYPE, $DOGE , LINK , LTC, and many other larger cap alts are also in the red, while XMR has defied the trend today with a 3% increase to over $340.
Pi Network’s native token has charted another all time low, while MYX is down by over 12%. BGB is next in terms of daily losses with a 9% drop. In contrast, ZRO has entered the top 100 alts after skyrocketing by 20%.
The total crypto market cap has shed over $50 billion daily and is down to $2.350 trillion.

A March rate cut could push the dollar down 10% by eoy. But January showed Bitcoin isn't following the debasement script anymore. Here's why.
There's a narrative in crypto that goes something like this: when the dollar weakens, Bitcoin rises. It's the debasement trade capital fleeing fiat currency risk and rotating into scarce, non-sovereign alternatives. And for most of 2024 and 2025, that narrative held up reasonably well.

But January 2026 broke the script.

The U.S. dollar had its worst month since April 2025, hitting four month lows around DXY 96. Gold surged past $5,100 per ounce, briefly touching $5,500. Silver jumped 19%. Emerging market currencies appreciated sharply. Every traditional hedge against dollar weakness performed exactly as expected.

Bitcoin declined.
Not collapsed. Not crashed. But it didn't rally either. And that disconnect is worth understanding, especially now that Morgan Stanley is projecting the dollar could fall another 10% through the end of 2026 if the Federal Reserve resumes rate cuts potentially starting in March, though the Fed has signaled it's on pause for Q1 after cutting three times in the second half of 2025.
The relationship between dollar weakness and Bitcoin isn't as straightforward as the debasement narrative suggests. Grayscale published analysis in early February breaking this down in technical terms: Bitcoin has a high "downside capture ratio" relative to the dollar, meaning it tends to produce strong returns when the dollar falls. But it also has a low inverse correlation, meaning those returns don't happen consistently month-to-month. In practical terms, Bitcoin benefits from dollar depreciation but on its own timeline, not in lockstep.

January's disconnect had specific drivers. Regulatory uncertainty around crypto legislation in Congress (delays on expected pro-crypto bills), renewed concerns about quantum computing risks to blockchain security, and broader risk-off sentiment all weighed on crypto even as gold and silver rallied. That matters because it reveals something important: Bitcoin is still being priced as a risk asset first and a debasement hedge second. When macro stress arrives, the initial reflex is to sell crypto alongside equities, not buy it alongside gold.
So what happens if the Fed actually cuts in March?
The bull case: dollar weakness accelerates, liquidity expands, real yields compress further, and capital eventually rotates into Bitcoin after lagging the move in precious metals. This is the scenario where BTC catches up to gold's run and the debasement narrative reasserts itself.

The bear case: a March cut gets interpreted as a recession signal rather than stimulus. If the Fed is cutting because growth or employment is deteriorating, risk sentiment collapses. In that scenario, crypto sells off hard alongside equities, and dollar weakness doesn't matter because investors are dumping risk assets entirely, not rotating into alternatives.
The nuance that often gets missed is that why the Fed cuts matters as much as whether it cuts. A cut driven by inflation normalization and confidence in the economy landing softly? That's liquidity positive, reflationary, and probably bullish for crypto over time. A cut driven by panic about slowing growth or financial instability? That's deflationary, risk off, and crypto gets hit first.

The timing overlay is also critical. JPMorgan analysts came out in January saying they expect the Fed's next move to be a rate hike, not a cut and not until Q3 2027. That's a contrarian call relative to the market consensus (which still prices in two 25bp cuts in 2026), but it reflects a view that the U.S. economy is resilient enough to avoid aggressive easing. If that's correct, dollar weakness may be less severe than Morgan Stanley's 10% forecast, and the catalyst for crypto's debasement trade simply doesn't materialize as strongly.

Jerome Powell's term as Fed Chair expires in May 2026, adding another layer of uncertainty. Kevin Hassett, a potential replacement, has signaled support for lower rates and easier credit conditions. A more dovish Fed Chair could accelerate cuts and dollar depreciation which would be structurally bullish for Bitcoin long-term. But the transition period itself is likely to create volatility.
The disconnect between Bitcoin and traditional debasement hedges in January 2026 suggests that crypto's macro sensitivity has shifted. It's no longer purely a liquidity play. Regulatory clarity, sentiment cycles, technological risk (quantum), and institutional positioning all matter as much as monetary policy now. Dollar weakness creates favorable conditions for Bitcoin. But it's not sufficient on its own to drive price action anymore.

BTC just hit a massive rejection at $70,000, and the whole market is feeling the heat.
This isn’t just a "normal dip", here is the breakdown of what is actually happening:
The $70K "Glass Ceiling": Bitcoin has failed multiple times to hold above $70,000 this week. 70K is a mega resistance zone, it's where late buyers from the last leg up are taking profits and leveraged longs are getting wiped out, creating constant sell pressure.
Analysts warn that bulls lack the momentum to flip the $69,000–$70,000 zone into support, leading to a "reflex rally" that just got sold off.

Institutional Exit: Large players are pulling back. Spot Bitcoin ETFs have seen three straight weeks of outflows, with over $318 million leaving just last week.
After months of inflows, spot BTC ETFs turned into net sellers, leaving a 50k+ BTC “demand gap” that takes real buyers to fill.
The "Warsh" Factor: The market is spooked by the nomination of Kevin Warsh as the next Fed Chair. His history as a "monetary hawk" has traders worried about a major squeeze on liquidity.
Leverage Flush: Over $397 million in liquidations happened in a single 24-hour window. When Bitcoin failed to hold $70k, it triggered a "stop run" that wiped out over leveraged traders. Billions in liquidations turned a normal correction into a cascade, dragging altcoins down even harder than BTC.
We are currently testing the $66,500 area. If we lose the $63,000 support, the "panic zone" at $60,000 is the next stop.

Seeing XRP hold its ground while Bitcoin and Ethereum are both taking a hit is catching a lot of people off guard. There is a specific technical signal popping up right now called a "realized price bottom." It just means the coin is trading for less than what most people actually paid for it.
Whenever we see this happen, it usually means the selling has finally exhausted itself and the price has hit a floor, which historically has been the perfect setup for a long term comeback.
Of course, the road hasn't been perfectly smooth. We have seen some of the whales those big money players with massive wallets selling off huge amounts of XRP recently. In fact, hundreds of millions of dollars worth of the token were dumped back into the market in just a few days. This kind of selling usually scares people off, but it’s also what created this potential bottom.
It’s a bit of a war while some people are panicking and selling, others are looking at the charts and seeing a rare opportunity to buy in at a discount.
​The most surprising part of this story is what the big institutional investors are doing. Even though individual retail traders seem a bit nervous, the "smart money" is moving in.
Recently, XRP actually saw more institutional money flowing in than Bitcoin, Ethereum, or Solana. These big firms seem to be betting on XRP’s actual use in the real world, specifically for moving money across borders quickly and cheaply. They aren’t just looking at the daily price swings they’re looking at the long term utility.
​Looking ahead, there are a few key numbers to keep an eye on.
From Technical View, if $XRP can stay steady and push past the $1.52 mark, it could trigger a much bigger rally toward $2.00. On the other side, if the market remains shaky, we might see some more sideways movement or a bit more consolidation before a real breakout happens.

A break below $1.37 could expose XRP to $1.26. Losing that level may invalidate the constructive outlook and open the path toward $1.12 under continued market weakness.
Either way, the fact that XRP is holding its own while the rest of the market struggles is a big deal, and it’s why so many people are starting to pay much closer attention to it again.

The reality is that while the average person is staring at a flat chart and getting bored, the big money is quietly accumulate up $4.7B worth of Bitcoin. That’s not a coincidence it’s a strategic play.
When you see exchange balances hitting multi year lows at the same time these whales are stacking adding roughly 53,000 $BTC in just a week during recent dip .
This level of accumulation isn't panic behavior it’s positioning. It shows a level of long term conviction that typically signals large players are looking for an entry point rather than just a quick trade.
Historically, when whales buy into weakness like this, it carries a lot more weight than whatever the headlines are screaming about at the moment.
The conversation is shifting away from Bitcoin just being "digital gold" and toward it actually being a platform for apps and smart contracts. This is why everyone is suddenly obsessed with Layer-2 solutions. Projects like $HYPER are trying to capitalize on that by essentially slapping high speed execution layers onto Bitcoin's security.
It sounds great on paper, and it’s definitely where the hype is headed, but you have to be careful with the technical execution. We have seen plenty of projects promise to bridge that gap only to fall apart under real stress.
The whales are betting on the long term scarcity and the expanding tech, but for everyone else, it’s a game of patience.
One signal is clear: whales are accumulating and buying the dip while everyone else is distracted.
That historically matters more than headlines.

LETS start by this ... The market doesn't care about your goals it only cares about your margin.
If you invest $100 , the market barely hears you. But with leverage, you are borrowing funds from an exchange to invest big $1,000 or $10,000 .
You are essentially using a small amount of skin in the game to control a much larger slice of the pie.
You provide a small amount of capital, known as Margin, and the exchange lends you the rest to increase your buying power. This allows you to enter positions that would otherwise be out of reach, turning a modest portfolio into a heavy weight contender.
The Multiplier Effect
Leverage is expressed as a ratio, like 5x, 10x, or 50x.
Without Leverage: You buy $100 of Bitcoin. Price goes up 10%. You make $10.
With 10x Leverage: Your $100 controls $1,000 of Bitcoin. Price goes up 10%. You make $100 effectively doubling your initial money on a minor move.
It’s an incredible way to maximize capital efficiency, allowing you to diversify your trades without needing a massive bankroll. However, it requires a disciplined mindset because the market doesn't care about your goals.
The visual of the seesaw in the image is a perfect warning. While leverage magnifies your wins, it also magnifies your losses with brutal efficiency. If the market moves against you, that borrowed power becomes a weight that can drag your balance to zero in seconds.
If you are using 10x leverage and the price of the asset drops by just 10%, your entire initial investment (the margin) is wiped out. The exchange closes your position to ensure they don't lose the money they lent you. This is called Liquidation, and in the crypto world, it happens in the blink of an eye.
3 Rules for Beginners
Before you touch that "leverage" slider on an exchange, keep these three things in mind:
Start Tiny:
Don't jump into 50x or 100x. Most pro rarely go above 3x to 5x. It gives you more "room to breathe" if the market gets volatile. Higher leverage leaves zero room for error.
Use Stop Losses: Think of a stop loss as your emergency brake. It’s an automatic order to sell if the price hits a certain level, preventing a total wipeout. Never enter a leveraged trade without an exit plan.
It’s Not a Savings Account: Leverage is for short term trades, not long term holding. Exchanges charge "funding fees" to keep those leveraged positions open, which can eat your profits over time. You are paying for the privilege of borrowing that money, so don't overstay your welcome.
Leverage is a powerful tool, not a magic money printer. Respect the risk, manage your emotions.
