The crypto market today (02/12/2026) is under strong selling pressure, with Bitcoin (BTC) continuing to slide and fluctuating around $66,000 - $67,000, down about 2-4% in the past 24 hours. The total market capitalization of crypto has decreased by about 2-7% compared to last week, falling to around ~$2.2 - $2.3 trillion USD. Highlights: • Bitcoin has sharply declined from its previous highs, heading towards its fourth consecutive weekly drop. Some reasons include: strong U.S. employment data, revisions of labor figures (nearly 1 million “phantom” jobs from the previous year), and capital flowing out of risky assets. However, some experts believe this is an initial “bottoming out” phase, and there is a dip-buying opportunity (Val Vavilov from Bitfury sees this as an opportunity). • Ethereum (ETH) has also decreased, hovering around $1,950 - $1,970, facing similar pressure. • Altcoins are highly volatile: Some memecoins and tokens like Berachain (BERA), LayerZero (ZRO), and pippin are leading growth, while many other tokens are plummeting. • Positive news: A BlackRock executive predicts that a 1% crypto allocation in Asia could bring in $2 trillion of new capital. JPMorgan is optimistic about recovery thanks to institutional flows. Danske Bank has lifted its 8-year crypto ban, allowing Bitcoin & Ethereum ETPs. The market is in a phase of extreme fear, with a rotation towards some new narratives (RWA, AI agents, stablecoin yield). This could be a long-term opportunity if you believe in the cycle, but in the short term, it remains very volatile – be careful with leverage! What do you think about this dip?

The crypto market is heavily sideways around the $68k–$70k range for BTC after a strong dump from the old peak. Many are confused: “Is it death or accumulation?” But looking closely, this is a typical weak hands filtering phase: • Fed hawkish + Warsh effect causing liquidity to shrink • Record ETF redemptions, whales selling off lightly • Extreme fear sentiment → an opportunity for those who are patient What’s hot coming up? • Clarity Act & stablecoin reward may unlock institutional cash flow • Fed cutting interest rates (expected Q2) → high risk of a strong rebound • Mt. Gox repayment + Litecoin halving → short-term pressure but bullish long-term BTC may test $60k if things go bad, but could bounce up to $80k+ if there’s a good catalyst. Altcoins are “hibernating” waiting for rotation. What do you think?👇 • • • Comment your strategy below, tag your friends to discuss! 🚀📉 #Bitcoin #Crypto #BTC #BinanceSquare #DipOrRekt $BTC
