On February 13, analyst EGRAG CRYPTO outlined two long-term XRP price structures based on Fibonacci extensions, with either a deeper pullback toward $0.60 targeting about $11 or a shallower retrace near $0.90 aiming for roughly $8.50. XRP is currently trading around $1.40, and these scenarios imply different risk–reward profiles for traders depending on how much drawdown the market accepts before the next potential rally.

A solo Bitcoin miner successfully mined block #936100 and received 3.153 BTC in total rewards, valued at roughly $213K. The payout combined the standard 3.125 BTC block subsidy with about 0.028 BTC in transaction fees, underscoring that individual miners can still secure blocks despite large industrial pools dominating the network.

On February 11, Lookonchain and Whale Alert flagged an Ethereum transaction that attached a 64.09 ETH fee, roughly $125,000, to a single transfer. The transaction moved just 0.000000000024433988 ETH, with blockchain records indicating an unusually high gas configuration.

Goldman Sachs’ latest 13F filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission details roughly $153 million of exposure to XRP-focused exchange-traded products, forming part of a broader $2.36 billion cryptocurrency position. The bank’s XRP holdings are split across four ETFs, while larger allocations remain in Bitcoin and Ethereum products, and the ETF inflows have so far had limited direct impact on XRP’s market price.

On February 11, analyst TechDev said Bitcoin's 2‑week RSI slid into an unusually oversold zone last observed during the March 2020 crash, with his business‑cycle gauge also near its lower bound. Bitcoin traded at $67,350.36, down 2.3% on the day, 9.9% over the week, and 25.5% across the month. Some traders view the setup as a gradual accumulation opportunity.

Bloomberg Intelligence strategist Mike McGlone argues that the roughly 45% drawdown in the Bloomberg Galaxy Crypto Index between 2025 and 2026 mirrors the Dow Jones Industrial Average’s slide during the 1929-30 crash and could mark a cyclical low for digital assets. He also notes a breakdown in the crypto-versus-metals ratio and says Bitcoin’s strong 2025 advance may foreshadow weaker relative performance against gold, silver, and other metals into 2026, while Bitcoin trades near $66,981.71 with notable short-term losses.

At a second White House-hosted meeting with top banks and crypto firms, talks on stablecoin yield policy ended without a deal, though participants said progress was made. The administration set a March 1 deadline, with banks advocating a ban on rewards for holding payment stablecoins and industry groups seeking clearer allowances.

Phantom has revealed plans to introduce Phantom Chat, an in-wallet social messaging feature slated for 2026. On February 10, on-chain investigator ZachXBT cautioned that the new tool could widen the attack surface while the long-standing problem of address poisoning in the wallet interface remains unresolved. He cited a recent incident in which a user lost 3.5 WBTC after copying a spoofed address from their transaction history, and urged the team to prioritize stronger protections before launching the chat function.

On February 4, 2026, EGRAG CRYPTO argued that Bitcoin's four‑year rhythm remains intact when assessed on yearly candles, with confirmation hinging on the annual close. According to CoinGecko, BTC traded at $75,346.58, down 3.3% day over day, 15.9% week over week, and 19.5% month over month.
