On February 13, 2026, Bitcoin traded at $66,887 after late-January turbulence pushed BTC into a descending channel. According to on-chain analyst Ali Martinez, the key range is defined by support at $64,000 and resistance at $67,000, levels that could determine whether the current bearish phase endures or a bullish reversal emerges.

After moving from $72 to above $116 within weeks and now trading around $85, traders on Polymarket are wagering on silver’s end‑February 2026 level. Odds currently price a 87% chance of finishing above $70 and 53% above $75, with unusual skews such as $110 at 36% exceeding $100 at 33%. Another market assigns a 59% chance of touching $75 during February.

On February 10, 2026, XRP was changing hands at $1.41, about 25% lower than at the start of the year and below its estimated holder cost basis. This move has pushed the token's SOPR indicator under 1 and left price hovering above a nearby $1.39 support zone, sharpening debate over whether XRP will lose the $1 level or stage a rebound toward resistance between $1.47 and $1.56. Broader crypto market weakness and Bitcoin's struggle with the $70,000 mark are weighing on sentiment, even as some institutional forecasts continue to project a longer-term bull case for BTC.

On February 9, brokerage Bernstein told clients it expects Bitcoin to set a new all‑time high of $150,000 in 2026, describing the setup as the 'weakest bear case.' The firm pointed to expanding institutional adoption, a more favorable U.S. policy climate, and the absence of major scandals; BTC was about $69,084 after a 22% year‑to‑date slide, implying a 117% climb to the target.

CEO Phong Le told investors on the latest earnings call that Strategy (MSTR) would only face an existential threat if Bitcoin fell to about $8,000 and stayed there for years. The comments followed a week when BTC slid more than 20%, MSTR dropped 17.12% in a single session, and then rebounded 7.19% in extended trading.

Late on February 4, 2026, Michael Burry posted $BTC Patterns on X, sharing a multi‑year chart with two red‑arrow markers. By the morning of February 5, Bitcoin briefly fell toward $69,000. The arrows referenced the decline from April 2, 2022 into mid‑May and early June, and the current downswing in early February 2026.

According to on-chain analyst Ali Martinez, Bitcoin's sharp swings between late January and early February 2026 have put the asset at risk of a 25% drop unless it climbs back above a key zone around $80,000. With BTC trading near $75,985 after rebounding from lows close to $73,000 on February 3, it remains below both the ETF cost basis of $82,600 and the 100-week SMA at $87,500, levels Martinez links to potential downside toward $57,000 and even $50,000 by March or April. He further projects the decline could extend to a possible cycle low around $38,000 in October if ETF inflows fail to improve.

On February 3, on-chain analyst Ali Martinez said a bearish Bitcoin pattern has resurfaced after BTC rebounded 5.64% from a February 2 low near $74,000 to $78,173. He highlighted the 100-week SMA at $87,500 and described the 200-week SMA at $57,600, projecting a move toward $50,000–$56,000 by March or April, citing past 55%, 47%, and 58% declines.

On February 1, 2026, Jim Cramer posted on X that Bitcoin near $77,000 could attract buyers and climb back to $82,000. He later cautioned against treating a Monday bounce as a double bottom, suggested shorts might be pressuring Michael Saylor, and pointed to a short‑term floor no lower than $73,000 after BTC slipped under $80,000 and neared $70,000.
