It appears that the sell-off at 10 a.m. UTC, around 1:00 PM EET, truly stopped after Terraform Labs' lawsuit against Jane Street on February 24, 2026, for manipulation in 2022: daily BTC/altcoin dumps of $100–500M at 10–11 AM UTC disappeared, the market stabilized with a +9.2% increase in BTC and an influx of $1.2 billion into ETFs — a 95% correlation according to Artemis/Coinglass data. Legal pressure on market makers: Jane Street, top-MM Jump Trading/Cumberland, are accused of spoofing and algo-dumps during the Terra crash, with SEC and CFTC investigations plus whistleblowers and ex-Jane ins

Is BTC approaching a $70K -reversal or a short-term bounce? In my opinion, this is a reversal with a high probability of (70%), not just a pullback: Jane Street's (insider trading lawsuit, algo-dumps) removed the FUD "10 AM slam" (stopped after the lawsuit), Nasdaq/tech rebound (Nvidia Q4 EPS $0.89 beat, AI boom) correlates with BTC (r=0.92), ETF inflows +$1.2B/week. Technical: double-bottom $60K, RSI 65 (bullish), OI $30B+ short squeeze $2B at $70K. Fundamentals: Circle IPO ($5B, stablecoin dominance) will accelerate on-ramp, halving legacy + Trump pro-crypto. Risks: $65.5K support (4H 50MA),

The latest 13F report data released by Bloomberg analysts shows an interesting but not panicked dynamic around Bitcoin spot ETFs. Hedge funds and investment advisors, which remain the largest categories of institutional owners, were net sellers of BTC-ETF in Q4 2025. However, the scale of this reduction—about 25,000 BTC—appears more like a controlled risk reduction rather than a sign of a mass exit by major players from the market.
Such behavior is quite typical for institutional capital at the end of the year. Funds regularly rebalance their portfolios, lock in profits afte

The approaching large options expiration, totaling around $8.4 billion on the Deribit exchange, could become one of the key drivers of the market's short-term dynamics. Such events rarely go unnoticed, as it is during expiration periods that market makers, funds, and large derivatives traders become most active.
Currently, the main focus is on strike prices of $75 000 for Bitcoin and $2 200 for Ethereum. These levels are not guaranteed targets for price movement; however, they often act as so-called "liquidity magnets." The reason is simple: market participants

The rapid growth of Polkadot $DOT ahead of the halving appears to be a typical market reaction to expectations of reduced issuance and changes in tokenomics. Such events traditionally boost investor interest, as decreasing supply often creates a scarcity narrative and stimulates speculative demand even before the actual event.
- Currently, the market is operating more on expectations than on the realized effect. Traders usually try to enter the asset in advance, which creates impulsive price increases. That’s why these movements are often accompanied by increased volumes an

The current movement of Bitcoin #CelebratingNewYearOnGateSquare $BTC( clearly demonstrates a classic liquidity grab scenario from short positions during an impulsive upward move. Such price jumps are usually not driven by mass retail demand but by local liquidity operations and actions of large players who control the market structure.
From a technical perspective, the situation looks as follows: initially, the market accumulates a significant number of shorts, after which the price sharply spikes upward. This movement helps clear overloaded seller segments, activate stop orders, and trigger

When $XRP drops below the $2 mark, it more often appears as a phase of the market cycle rather than a sign of asset weakness. The crypto market always moves in waves: periods of euphoria are followed by doubt, and growth phases are inevitably accompanied by pressure and testing investors' faith in their decisions.
Each cycle has its own psychology. Initially, the market captures attention with rapid growth, then a correction occurs, prompting most participants to review their positions. It is during these moments that a key divide happens: some begin to doubt and exit the m

The movement of $BTC was impulsive in nature and accompanied by classic liquidity mechanics.
Structural facts:
• Sharp increase after a series of declines
• Acceleration of movement due to short liquidations
• Synchronous reaction of altcoins
Such phases more often reflect a short squeeze rather than the emergence of sustained demand. The market in such situations rises due to forced position closures rather than organic accumulation.
BTC. Price behavior
The rise within the 68.5k–69.5k range appears technically as a price spike into liquidity and resistance zones.

Bull vs Bear battle on ETH at Gate — fireworks!
Whales are taking profits, accumulators are grabbing 2.5M ETH, $2B shorts over $2K — wait for the squeeze! 📈📉 Will a drop below $1600 trigger liquidations? Absolutely — this is the key support at the 200-day EMA + OI cluster (, a breakout will trigger a cascade of long-liquidations totaling $1.5B+, testing $1500. But the bulls are stronger: EF staking + ZK development = bonus.
My setup on Gate: Long ETH/USDT from $1800, TP )$2400 ATH extension (, SL )$1590 LOW risk 1.5%. Leverage 5–10x, R:R 3:1. Short only if there

#GateTradFiTopPick
My watchlist currently shows the most attention from the TradFi sector on #Gate Silver (XAG/USD).
This asset is in a bullish trend in TradFi with a price of ~$87.87 (a pullback from the peak $89 after the tariff rally), where industrial demand creates a structural deficit of 67–120 million ounces in 2026. Its undervaluation (gold:silver ratio ~50:1–80:1) makes it attractive for inflation hedging and speculation, with forecasts of $113–$128 in February and $120+ annually (JPMorgan).​​Fundamental factors: Supply deficit for the fifth consecutive year due to secondary mining
