Bitcoin price surges on CPI relief – Yet BTC’s $70K barrier remains!

Bitcoin's price surged nearly 4% following a lower-than-expected CPI report of 2.4%, marking its strongest intraday gain in two weeks. This triggered significant short liquidations, accounting for 85% of the $267 million flushed. However, the rally appears driven more by a short squeeze than genuine buying pressure. Despite the bounce, BTC faces a major resistance zone between $70k–$75k, with approximately $150 million in sell-side liquidity. On-chain data shows funding rates remain negative, indicating persistent bearish sentiment. While ETF inflows saw a slight recovery, bulls lack the momentum to decisively break through key resistance, leaving Bitcoin vulnerable to a potential correction.

The Cycle Without A Ceiling: Why Bitcoin’s Missing Peak Rewrites The Rules For The 2026 Bottom

Bitcoin remains below $70,000 amid persistent selling pressure and cautious market sentiment, with analysts warning a deeper correction below $60,000 is possible. However, a CryptoQuant report suggests Bitcoin may be nearing an undervalued zone based on on-chain metrics. The MVRV ratio is around 1.1, approaching levels historically linked to accumulation phases. Unlike previous cycles, Bitcoin did not reach extreme overvaluation before correcting, meaning this downturn may not mirror past capitulation patterns. Technically, Bitcoin shows a bearish structure with lower highs and lows, trading below key moving averages. The $60,000 level is critical; reclaiming $70,000 is necessary for any sustained recovery.

Arbitrum dips 40% in 2026: Can ETHZilla deal help ARB recover?

Arbitrum (ARB) has declined 40% in 2026, extending its 70% drop from 2025 and pushing the token to new all-time lows, leaving all holders at a loss. Despite this, on-chain liquidity is showing signs of recovery, with its stablecoin market cap rising nearly 2% this week, led by a 3% increase in USDC. However, Total Value Locked (TVL) remains low, indicating limited broader liquidity. Amid these challenges, Arbitrum is strategically focusing on growth sectors like real-world assets (RWAs). Its partnership with ETHZilla to launch a tokenized jet engine income product aims to attract institutional capital. This move aligns with the RWA sector's strong momentum, which recently hit a record $24.7 billion in assets. These efforts are critical to restoring investor confidence and supporting a potential recovery for ARB.

Bitcoin Stares Down the $55,000 Floor: The Last Bastion Before On-Chain Capitulation

Bitcoin is struggling below the $70,000 mark amid persistent selling pressure and declining sentiment. It has fallen approximately 47% from its October high of around $125,000 to roughly $66,400. Key on-chain support levels—Realized Price and Long-Term Holder (LTH) cost basis—are converging, potentially forming a critical support corridor between $43,000 and $51,000 within a quarter. The Realized Price, currently near $55,000, is the immediate support. If Bitcoin breaks below the $43K–$51K zone, a deeper bear market could follow. The tightening range between these levels indicates compressed structural support, though this is a forward-looking indicator rather than an immediate signal.

Is on-chain throughput now defining RLUSD’s market maturity?

RLUSD's market maturity is increasingly defined by its on-chain throughput and settlement efficiency rather than mere supply growth. Launched in December 2024, it reached a $1.52 billion market cap by mid-February 2026, aided by Binance listings and strategic treasury mints. While much smaller than USDT, RLUSD exhibits higher velocity, with $6.3 billion in monthly transfers, emphasizing its role in cross-border payments and settlements. Its liquidity is functionally split: Ethereum holds ~77-79% for collateral and DeFi, while XRPL's ~22-23% share focuses on fast settlement routing. This specialization positions RLUSD as a utility-driven stablecoin complementing USDT's liquidity dominance.

RIVER price prediction: Why its next move hinges on liquidity at $25

RIVER's price recently hit $24.2 but has since, dropping 18.9% to $19.62. Despite a bearish daily structure and strong capital outflows (CMF at -0.36), the token saw a 55% gain over the past week. Key liquidity zones are identified at $15 and $25, with further clusters at $33 and $37.7. While short-term upward movement toward these levels is possible due to recent momentum and untapped imbalances, the overall trend remains cautious. Traders are warned of potential selling pressure near these supply zones, especially given the asset's extreme volatility and signs of holders selling during rallies.

This Key Bitcoin Metric Signals That The Downside May Persist A Bit Longer

After a sharp pullback in Bitcoin's price, speculation suggests the market may have entered a bearish phase. A key metric, the Bitcoin Z-Score, indicates that the downside movement has not yet climaxed, with BTC hitting a historically extreme -3σ downside deviation near the $60,000 mark. This suggests selling pressure and weak demand are likely to persist in the coming days, weeks, or even months. Analysts note that final market bottoms are typically formed through prolonged choppy compression rather than sharp crashes. Additionally, the Bull Score Signals metric, which assesses on-chain health, shows most indicators are still negative, indicating a challenging environment for Bitcoin to reach new all-time highs in the short term. The drop below $60,000 has also pressured Bitcoin whales, who have increased their inflows to exchanges like Binance, with over 50,000 BTC moved since February 1. This activity often signals heightened selling pressure, especially in a tightening liquidity environment.

Chainlink: How THIS liquidity cluster could pull LINK to $9

Chainlink (LINK) gained 5% in a week, rebounding from key support at $7.52 to the $8.39–$8.42 range. Underlying fundamentals strengthened, with reserves climbing to 2 million LINK and a sevenfold increase in revenue. LINK ETFs saw consistent institutional inflows, adding 1.71 million tokens this week alone without any outflows. Technical indicators suggest accumulation, with RSI hitting a historic low and a bullish flag pattern forming. Liquidity is heavily clustered between $9 and $9.3, which may act as a price magnet. However, failure to reclaim this zone risks another downward move.

Can Bitcoin reclaim $74K? – $559M BTC whale dump raises doubts

Bitcoin's bearish pressure intensified after rejection at $72k, dropping to around $66k and later trading near $60k. A significant whale sold 8,200 BTC worth $559 million on Binance, contributing to a 3% price decline. Whale selling has dominated for two weeks, indicating strong bearish sentiment. Technical indicators like the Ease of Movement and Money Flow Index reflect sustained selling pressure and weak buying interest. BTC risks falling toward $60k unless buyers return. A reversal would require renewed whale demand, as seen in brief recoveries when exchange netflow turned negative. The market remains in a risk-off phase with thin liquidity.
