I just looked at the market data that Bitcoin really struggled in February - it dropped almost 15% for the entire month. This is the third worst monthly performance since 2013, so the impact is really significant. Compared to the historical average of around 11%, the -14.94% is significantly below the typical expectations for February.



The Ethereum situation is even more dramatic - down 19.81% for the same month. It is also the third worst since 2017, and the gap from its median performance is extremely large. If historically Ethereum averages around 8.5% in February, the -19.81% is in completely the opposite direction.

It's interesting that both coins underperformed significantly during the same period. Median values usually provide a better picture of typical behavior, but February 2026 is clearly an anomaly for both. It seems like a coordinated bearish pressure was happening that month.
