Derivatives Data

Recently, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and AI stocks have experienced sharp declines, revealing the risks of narrative-driven investing and the vulnerabilities caused by high leverage. Investors should focus on fundamental analysis, avoid relying solely on story-driven investment strategies, and emphasize valuation and risk management to cope with market volatility.

The crypto market faced declines, with XRP down 2.99% and significant liquidations reported. Future outflows exceeded inflows, suggesting profit-taking. Despite this, XRP saw some fund inflows ahead of upcoming legislative changes and important economic data releases.

Bitcoin's slide through the $65,000 mark and approaching $60,000 resembles a stress test that the market has postponed for a long time. The drop happened quickly enough to force positions to be restructured, while also being wide enough to shift the discussion away from explanations based on a single factor.

BTC (+2.32% | Current price 70,761.7 USDT) BTC is still in the process of rebound and consolidation after a rapid deleveraging drop. Last week, it briefly dipped below $60,000 before gradually recovering and consolidating around $70,000; technically, the MA5 has again supported the price, the MA10 is exerting slight short-term resistance, and the MA30 is slowly rising as a consolidation center. This indicates that the bulls' recovery is effective but has not yet formed a clear trend continuation. The short-term direction still depends on the return of incremental funds or the realization of macro catalysts. The $70,000 mark is a key watershed. If it falls below and cannot rebound back above the MA30 to confirm a valid retest, the market is more likely to turn into a second retracement, with support levels at $68,000 and $65,000. In extreme cases, a revisit to the panic low of $60,000 cannot be ruled out. ETH (+0.04% |

Cryptocurrency Market Overview BTC (+2.32% | Current Price 70,761.7 USDT): BTC is in a phase of oscillation and recovery after a rapid deleveraging drop. Last week, it briefly dipped below $60,000 before rebounding and consolidating around $70,000; technically, MA5 has regained support, MA10 is exerting slight pressure, and MA30 is gradually rising, indicating an effective correction but an unconfirmed trend continuation. In the short term, it still depends on incremental capital or macro catalysts. $70,000 is a key watershed; if it falls below and a rebound fails to hold above MA30 and complete a retest, the market may shift to a secondary retracement. Support levels are sequentially at $68,000 and $65,000, with an extreme scenario of testing the panic low at $60,000 again. ETH (+0.04% | Current Price 2,091.13 USDT): ETH rebounded from the $1,744 low to 2,100

Solana's price approached $90 on Monday, holding onto last Friday's 11% rebound, but it has been consolidating for the third consecutive day. Derivative product data shows retail interest continues to decline, with SOL futures open interest decreasing by 2% to $5.32 billion within 24 hours, and financing rates remaining negative. The US spot Solana ETF experienced an outflow of $11.86 million, and technically, the RSI dropped to 29, indicating an oversold condition.

On February 9th, due to BTC briefly rising to $72,300, the total liquidation across the network reached $93.14 million, with short positions accounting for 81.4%. Hyperliquid platform accounted for 60% of the liquidations, and whale short positions were liquidated for $14.49 million.

Taiwanese rapper Huang Licheng experienced significant losses due to his enthusiasm for trading cryptocurrencies, with his account balance dropping from $50.39 million in September last year to $53,000, a decline of over 99%. He used aggressive 25x leverage to speculate on the bullish market but frequently faced forced liquidations, totaling 252 liquidations, earning him the nickname "Liquidation King."

Bitcoin price accelerates downward to $60,000, with nearly $2.7 billion in liquidations across the network, marking the worst single-day decline since 2022. Although capital outflows are only 6.6%, analysts point out that the 200-day moving average is a key support level. Market liquidity is weak, and there are no signs of a bottom yet, with a potential risk of further decline to $38,000.

XRP plummeted 24% to $1.17, leading the crypto market lower, with $47 million in daily liquidations, and trading volume surged 57% to over $11 billion. The Fear Index dropped to 11, indicating extreme panic, with market capitalization falling from $4.2 trillion to $2.27 trillion. Evernorth's holdings are at a loss of $446 million. Analyst Egrag Crypto warns that if the decline reaches 50-60%, the rebound should be considered a signal to exit.

The crypto market is getting hit hard again, and this time the damage is spreading fast. Bitcoin is now trading around $70,000, a level not seen since late 2024, and the broader market has followed it straight down. Altcoins are bleeding, sentiment has collapsed, and traders are once again

CN: Cryptocurrency Asset Overview BTC (-4.86% | Current Price 72,302.7 USDT) In the past 24 hours, Bitcoin's price has accelerated its decline. On a 1-hour basis, after breaking below the 73,000 USD key support level, there are no clear signs of a bottom in the short term. The trend continues to retrace gains made since 2025 and tests the critical threshold around 70,000 USD in November 2024. Data from CoinGlass shows that Bitcoin's total liquidation over the past few days has reached $2.56 billion, with leverage positions still being cleared. Meanwhile, policy-level uncertainties further suppress market sentiment: a recent White House meeting aimed at breaking the months-long legislative deadlock between banks and cryptocurrency companies ultimately made no progress, including issues related to stablecoin reward mechanisms.

Bitcoin plummeted 40.8% to $74,680, but four major indicators show it’s unlikely to fall further. U.S. Treasury yields are stable at 3.54%, futures basis is at 3% and not inverted, ETF outflows amount to only $3.2 billion, accounting for just 3%, and MicroStrategy holds $1.44 billion in cash with no liquidation risk. Oracle raises $50 billion to ease concerns over tech stocks.

After the sharp XRP price decline, which wiped out most leveraged positions, futures flows have begun recovering, up 749% in 4 hours. This trend indicates that leverage may now be returning to the market, as the XRP price looks to recover alongside the rest of the crypto market. For context, the

The simultaneous movement of 5,493 ETH by co-founder Vitalik Buterin and the forced dumping of 30,000 ETH by Trend Research amidst a \$7.6 billion paper loss for top bulls is not a simple sell-off story. It is a critical market-clearing event that separates strategic, ecosystem-focused capital from over-leveraged, speculative positioning. This divergence, occurring as Ethereum battles to reclaim its 200-week moving average near \$2,450, signals a painful but necessary maturation: the net

In brief Bitcoin’s weekend drop triggered more than $5 billion in liquidations since Thursday, driving futures open interest to its lowest level in nine months. Derivatives and options markets have turned defensive, with traders paying elevated premiums for downside protection and reducing l

"Hyperunit Whale" completely crashed, the whale liquidated all Ethereum leveraged positions, incurring losses of approximately $250 million, with only $53 remaining in the account. Previously, he made a profit of $200 million from shorting before Trump's tariffs in October, then switched to long positions, building a $730 million position. This week, Ethereum plummeted to $2,400, leading to a full liquidation.
