🕵️♂️ Barry Silbert: 'Zcash can replicate the success of early Bitcoin'
While the crypto community debates ETFs and regulation, DCG founder Barry Silbert shook the information space with his statement at Bitcoin Investor Week. His thesis: anonymous coins are preparing to absorb 10% of Bitcoin's capitalization. 💎 Key insights from Silbert: The billionaire is confident that Zcash ($ZEC ) can grow by 500 times. At the current price, this means a fantastic target of over $115,000.
🐻 Berachain (BERA): The hype has passed, the lessons remain. Price — $0.745 📉
Yesterday's anomalous spike $BERA to $1.5 has already become history. As of the evening of February 12, the token is trading at $0.745, completely neutralizing yesterday's jump of 200%. The speculative dust has settled, and the market has received a harsh but important lesson. 📊 Flight analysis for the last 24 hours: Price: The rollback exceeded 50%. The asset did not hold the level of $1.0, confirming the manipulative nature of the pump.
Vanar Chain ($VANRY) — The environmental standard of the blockchain of the future 🌿
In an era when global corporations and institutional investors are required to adhere to ESG (environmental, social, and corporate governance) standards, "green" technologies are becoming not just a bonus but a critical requirement. @Vanar Chain is the answer to the market's demand for a sustainable and responsible Web3.
Completing the Plasma cycle: results, goals, and strategy for 2026 🏁
We have thoroughly analyzed Plasma ($XPL ) from all angles: from the technological breakthrough with NEAR Intents to the real sector with Visa cards. It's time to draw the final line under this case. 📌 The main conclusions of our research: @Plasma — one of the few projects where the technology is already working "in the field." Plasma One is not just a promise, but a working bridge between fiat and crypto. The current price around $0.08 reflects the market's fear of large unlocks. July 2026 will be the "moment of truth." If the ecosystem can digest 2.5 billion new tokens based on real demand, we will witness the birth of a new top player. We are at a local bottom. The level of $0.073 turned out to be a tough nut to crack. Any movement above $0.15 will signal a shift in the global trend to bullish.
📉 My final strategy: I am halting regular coverage of the project since all key cards are already on the table. The next few months will be a period of accumulation and observation. Optimistic target: $1.70+. Conservative target: $0.57.
Today, February 11, 2026, has become a boiling point for financial markets. The recently released data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics for January turned out to be significantly stronger than the most daring analysts expected, but painful for crypto portfolios. 📈 Key performance indicators of the report:
📉 Arkham: From CEX to DEX. The end of ambitions or strategic rebirth?
Today, February 11, 2026, the crypto market is discussing one of the most interesting transformations of the year. Arkham Exchange officially changes its development vector.
🔍 After the daily trading volume on the platform fell below $620,000, it became clear: competing with giants like Binance in the CEX format is almost impossible. But Arkham is not leaving the market — they announced a transition to the DEX model.
💡 Instead of holding its own liquidity, Arkham integrates its legendary analytical toolkit directly into smart contracts.
Now you will be able to trade based on on-chain data (whale movements) directly through the Arkham interface, using the liquidity of the largest decentralized pools.
⛈ While Arkham seeks a new path, other players are ceasing operations: Gemini is exiting key markets (EU, Australia). Nifty Gateway is shutting down on February 23.
✅ Thus, an "evolution of survival" is observed. Arkham acknowledged defeat in the battle for the CEX market, but the transition to DEX may create a new standard for analytical trading. For token $ARKM ($0.11), this is a chance to prove value through real utility.
World ($WLD ) 2026: revolution of payments or biometric trap? ✋👁️
The World project (formerly Worldcoin) of Sam Altman has moved from philosophical discussions about "humanity" to aggressive market expansion. As of February 2026, the project has become one of the most discussed topics in Web3. 🚀 What drives $WLD up? Partnership with Qualcomm: World has integrated palm scanning directly into payment terminals. Now verification in the World App and payment for goods happen literally with a "wave of the hand." This is the first real attempt at mass usage of crypto-biometrics in retail.
Plasma vs. STABLE: which L1 will dominate in 2026?

This is a blockchain for the "real world."
🤖 Battle of AI ecosystems: NEAR vs RENDER vs VANRY. Where are the hidden x's?
The artificial intelligence sector in 2026 transitioned from hype to real products. But the investment strategies for these projects are radically different. Let's analyze the advantages and risks of each of them. 🏗️ NEAR Protocol ($NEAR) Plus: Incredible speed (100k TPS) and focus on "User-Owned AI". This is a safe haven for large capital.
Will Japanese policy "sink" $BTC ? New challenges 2026
Japan is once again becoming the center of attention for crypto investors. A convincing victory for Sanae Takaichi in the elections could significantly change the rules of the game in the global market.
The Liberal Democratic Party has gained a majority in parliament, giving the Prime Minister the freedom to aggressively stimulate the economy. Takaichi plans extensive tax incentives that could radically change the flow of capital.
Why is this important for BTC? Gugaonchain warns of a possible "domino effect":
Outflow from ETFs: A shift of liquidity from American spot Bitcoin ETFs to Japanese assets and government bonds (JGB) is expected.
Pressure on indices: The strengthening of the yen and a reevaluation of strategies in the U.S. could hit the stock market.
Correlation: Since $BTC maintains a strong correlation with American indices, a fall in the stock market could drag BTC down, despite a recent recovery to $70,000.
Thus, while Takaichi maneuvers between supporting a weak and strong yen, the market remains in a state of anticipation. The Japanese factor could become the very "black swan" that triggers a new wave of correction.
Plasma in 2026: Will utility outweigh the pressure of unlocks?
As of today, February 9, 2026, the crypto community is closely monitoring $XPL . The token is currently trading in the range of $0.081 – $0.083, and while the overall market is in a state of 'extreme fear', the fundamental indicators of the @Plasma project paint a significantly more interesting picture. 🛠 From technology to real-world use

BTC: 'bear trap' or the beginning of a reversal? Analysis of the facts
While social media is ablaze with panic, on-chain data screams of historic accumulation. Let's figure out why this might be 'the moment'. 🧵 1️⃣ Extreme fear as fuel for growth 📉 According to Santiment, the number of negative comments on social media has reached a peak since December 1.

How to become part of Plasma ($XPL)? Step-by-step guide
Project @Plasma is not just another blockchain; it is a whole payment infrastructure that is becoming more accessible every day. Thanks to the expansion of presence $XPL on trading platforms, the entry threshold to the ecosystem is now minimal. Here are 4 ways you can join Plasma today:
🚀 ZKsync (ZK) HAS SHATTERED THE MARKET: +1000% IN 3 HOURS AND REGULATORS ARE WATCHING! ⚖️
While the market was regaining its footing, the ZKsync ecosystem put on a real show! Today, token $ZK soared by 1000% in just three hours.
A large-scale deployment of the new network architecture took place today. This update drastically reduced fees, provoking an immediate influx of liquidity and a powerful short squeeze.
But it's not all that simple — regulators are already in touch! Such anomalous growth has immediately attracted the attention of the SEC and EU regulators.
Here’s what exactly they are currently checking: 1. Wallets that accumulated ZK just minutes before the official announcement are being analyzed. 2. Regulators are looking for signs of wash trading. 3. How "manual" was this update? If the network is governed too centrally, it gives grounds to classify the token as a security.
On one hand — this is an incredible driver for the entire L2 sector and market recovery. On the other — increased regulatory attention may lead to volatility in the coming days.
⚠️ ADVICE: Be cautious of FOMO! When regulators start "digging," prices can react sharply. Keep an eye on volumes and don’t forget about stop-losses.
$VANRY becomes deflationary: an analysis of the tokenomics and numbers that will change the game! 📉
While the market focuses on short-term fluctuations, the true strength of @Vanar Chain is manifested in its updated economic model. As of February 2026, the project has officially entered a deflationary phase.
Let's break down the numbers of the tokenomics and the burning mechanism. Vanar has a strictly limited supply that is not just stagnant but is constantly decreasing:
📊 Bitcoin Yardstick: Why $70,600 is a zone of strategic undervaluation?
After reaching heights above $120,000 in 2025, the current consolidation around $70,600 is making many anxious. However, on-chain metrics from Glassnode suggest otherwise: the network's fundamentals have never been this strong. 💎 🔍 Yardstick Anomaly: Price vs Reality The Bitcoin Yardstick indicator (the ratio of market capitalization to hash rate power) is currently at extremely low levels. What does this mean for us?
Dusk: Monthly Summary. At the Intersection of Privacy and Law
Over the last month, we have been thoroughly analyzing the architecture and ambitions of @Dusk_Foundation. Today, as the puzzle comes together, it’s time to look at the bigger picture: how this project is changing the game in the RWA (real-world assets) sector. ⚙️ From theory to working network The main event was the successful transition to Mainnet. This laid the foundation for everything else: the network is finally ready to handle transactions with instant finality. But technologies alone are worth nothing without convenience, so the launch of DuskEVM became a 'bridge' that allowed developers to easily port their solutions from Ethereum without losing familiar tools.
