The Strait of Hormuz is blocked, oil is soaring, and U.S. inflation is nearing 5%. Amid this chaos, Bitcoin holds strong at $67,000. But for how long? Between a rally to $74,000 and a feared collapse, the next hours could change everything.

After a historic low, Ethereum holders show a marked return of confidence. Could this rebound in retention after 4 years of decline signal a new era for ETH?

Binance, the world leader in cryptocurrencies, is at the center of a political scandal. 11 U.S. senators demand a federal investigation into suspicious transactions linked to Iran. With $1.7 billion at stake, the crypto exchange faces historic sanctions.

In just 3 years, Tether has frozen 4.2 billion dollars of USDT tokens linked to illicit activities, establishing itself as a key player in the fight against financial crime in the crypto ecosystem. While some see this as progress against cybercrime, others fear a much more frightening danger.

The post-election rally in the US was short-lived. Less than a year after the November 2024 presidential election, the crypto market has erased almost all the gains accumulated in its wake. Driven by a spectacular surge in altcoins, the sector peaked in October 2025 before sharply giving up ground. Since this peak, capitalization has fallen by about 40%, ending a bullish momentum that seemed firmly established. The electoral cycle ultimately did not fulfill its promises.

Donald Trump raises tariffs to 15%. The decision, announced in a tense electoral atmosphere, revives the American protectionist line and puts trade policy back at the center of the economic debate. Traditional markets reacted. Cryptos, however, remained stable. This contrast raises questions about the real sensitivity of the crypto market to political and trade shocks.

Bitcoin has only two outcomes according to Michael Saylor, either $0 or 1 million $. A radical prediction that shakes the crypto market. Between total collapse and financial revolution, which scenario will happen according to you?

Washington opens a new explosive trade front. After being overruled by the Supreme Court on his use of emergency powers, Donald Trump immediately announced a 10% global tariff on imports. This decision renews trade tensions at a time when markets remain particularly sensitive to political shocks. Between institutional confrontation, alternative legal strategy, and increased volatility risk, this episode could have effects far beyond U.S. borders.

The Clarity Act could change everything for crypto, and Brad Garlinghouse bets 90% on its adoption in April 2026. A regulation that would finally clarify the status of digital assets, reduce legal uncertainties, and pave the way for a new era for Ripple and stablecoins.

The Dollar reaches new heights and crushes the crypto market along the way. Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and XRP collapse despite a rising tech market. Why does this Dollar pressure stifle digital assets?

Warning signals are multiplying around Solana. While SOL struggles to stabilize above a key technical threshold, derivatives market data show a clear retreat of bullish positions. Meanwhile, on-chain activity is slowing down and network revenues are eroding. As the 80 dollar level, now closely watched by investors, approaches, the question is no longer about a simple technical rebound, but about the very solidity of market support.

Tuesday, February 17, 2026, eToro (ETOR) stock closed up about 20%, supported by better-than-expected quarterly results and the still central weight of crypto in its model. Even in a less euphoric market than in 2024, Wall Street liked the message: eToro makes money, and the platform remains a crossroads between crypto and traditional finance.

BlackRock has just launched a new Ethereum ETF promising 82% of staking revenue to investors! But behind this product lie high fees and centralization risks that even worry Vitalik Buterin.

A massive deposit of 260,000 ETH on Binance in record time shakes the crypto market. Garrett Jin, a historic figure of Bitcoin, could be behind this move? Between selling pressure and whale accumulation, Ethereum is at a decisive turning point.

Vitalik Buterin calls for a change of course for prediction markets, which he sees trapped in a short-term speculative logic. According to him, these platforms could become much more than betting tools: real instruments for hedging economic risk. This position comes as these markets gain influence in the crypto ecosystem and beyond.

A key valuation indicator today places bitcoin at an unprecedented level since March 2023, a period when BTC traded around 20,000 dollars. After several months of correction following its last all-time high, the market shows a reading rarely seen during the cycle. This configuration, based on on-chain data, raises questions about the real state of the market and the position of bitcoin in its current phase.

Bitcoin drops 28% in one month, short positions explode, and investors doubt. Yet, Anthony Pompliano remains convinced: this phase is only a prelude to a historic rise. Why does he see a unique opportunity in this volatility?

A 24-year-old man defrauded nearly 1 million dollars by promising incredible returns in crypto and today he risks 375 years in prison. How did he trap his victims? The chilling story.

In Washington, the regulatory future of cryptos may be decided in the coming months. Amid market volatility, the CLARITY Act stands as a pivotal text for the American crypto industry. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent advocates for its rapid adoption, believing that legislative clarification could soothe investor sentiment. Behind this tight schedule lies a major political stake: securing the crypto framework before the 2026 electoral balances reshuffle the cards.

Bitcoin nears $66,500, and short positions reach unprecedented highs since 2024. Could this extreme pessimism, often a sign of a reversal, trigger a rapid rebound?

Did bitcoin really hit the bottom at $60,000? Michael Terpin, CEO of Transform Ventures, warns of a new drop to $40,000 before a sustainable recovery. Between historical cycles and market fragility, his analysis divides experts.

The crypto market sends contradictory signals. Indeed, investor sentiment has just reached a historic low, reflecting a strong distrust towards bitcoin. At the same time, some data from Binance indicate a slowdown in selling pressure. This discrepancy between market psychology and real flows raises a central question: are we witnessing a simple technical lull or the beginnings of a lasting rebalancing?

The boundary between traditional and decentralized finance continues to erode. This time, it is BlackRock that is shifting the lines. The global asset management giant has connected its tokenized fund BUIDL, backed by US Treasury bonds, to the Uniswap infrastructure. An initiative that goes beyond simple technological experimentation, as it materializes the entry of a major institutional player onto the operational rails of DeFi.

In just 24 hours, the Bitcoin market wiped out more than 250 million dollars of positions, catching thousands of traders off guard. Why this brutal purge? What signals should be watched to avoid getting trapped?

For the first time since 2022, bitcoin is sending a bottom signal, a rare technical indicator that could mark a historic turning point. With critical price levels to watch and varied scenarios, investors wonder: is it time to buy?

A sudden sale of 245,000 bitcoins by historic holders shakes the market, revealing an unexpected signal in an intense macroeconomic tension phase. These investors known for their solidity surprised even the most seasoned analysts. Is it a capitulation or a repositioning strategy? As monetary uncertainty persists and volatility settles in, on-chain indicators reveal a more nuanced reading.

ENS has just disrupted the crypto ecosystem by abandoning Namechain for Ethereum L1. A bold decision driven by a 99% drop in gas fees and unexpected scalability. Why this strategy could redefine the future of L2s in the crypto ecosystem?
