Crypto Bleeds Out This Morning. $2.7B Liquidated 🩸

We’re no longer in the “+20% overnight” phase… Now it’s –15% to –20% before breakfast. Iran just rejected nuclear talks with the U.S., spiking geopolitical tension.

📱 Just close the app, stay calm. Or don’t, I’ll check for you 😂

Here’s what we got for you today:

⭐ Crypto is Bleeding, But the "Smart Money" Isn’t Leaving. Why?

Looking at your portfolio right now probably hurts… Since October, the total crypto market has shed nearly 50% of its value.

If you’re feeling the urge to panic sell or punch a hole in the drywall, please DON’T and listen to me first! When I stepped back and looked at the data, my view changed.

Stablecoin reserves ($USDT ( ▲ 0.07% ) and $USDC) are still near ATHs. That means capital is not running away. It’s waiting. In this piece, I’ll tell you exactly:

Read this if you want clarity, and if you’re trying to decide whether this fear is a warning… or an actual opportunity.

It’s official: Feb 6th, 2026 will go down as one of the darkest days in crypto history. After a brutal 12-hour sell-off, red has flooded the charts, and we’re not just talking minor dips.

It’s now sitting at a new low for 2026, wiping out everything it gained after Trump got re-elected and promised to boost crypto in the US. No clear signs that the bounce will last.

1/ Altcoins Got Slammed Too

2/ Even Big Players Are Getting Crushed

Strategy has been known for holding strong in the past (e.g., through 22% drops in 2020–2023), but their treasury is now much larger, and the market conditions have changed.

No one knows if they’ll keep holding this time.

3/ Liquidations & Panic Selling Everywhere

Meanwhile, the Fear & Greed Index crashed to 9, a level we haven’t seen since June 2022, right after the LUNA-UST implosion and cascading liquidity crises.

That signals extreme fear and maybe even burnout after months of decline with no recovery in sight, while stocks and gold keep climbing.

Bottom line: This might not be the end of the pain, but it’s also a moment of opportunity, if you stay calm, stay smart, and focus on what really matters.

There’s a moment when you open the news and it already feels like work. That’s not how staying informed should feel.

When BTC dipped to $60K, it didn’t just rattle traders, it hit MicroStrategy hard. They currently hold around 713,500 BTC, with an average cost of $76,000 per coin.

That means as of today, they’re down about 21%, or in real terms, billions in unrealized losses sitting on their balance sheet.

No, they haven’t sold. But that doesn’t mean the pain isn’t real.

1/ The Bigger Concern: Market Cap vs Bitcoin Value

Their stock just took a hit too. And now we’ve got a weird situation → MicroStrategy’s market cap is lower than the value of its BTC holdings.

That’s a red flag for how the market views their whole treasury strategy. Here’s what’s happening now:

2/ Are They in Trouble Yet?

Not exactly but they’re not comfortable either.

On the positive side, they're not about to collapse. They’ve raised ~$18.6B over the past 2 years, mostly when the market was good.

→ That gave them time to build their BTC war chest without too much dilution.

Plus, their debts are long-term, and there are no margin calls tied to BTC’s price. So short-term, they’re not cornered.

3/ So What Does Leadership Say? Here’s what CEO Phong Le told investors:

→ Only if BTC drops to $8,000, and stays there for 5 to 6 years, would our balance sheet be in serious trouble. That would mean a 90% drawdown, where their BTC reserves barely cover their net debt.

So for now, they’re holding the line. Still, concerns are rising about long-term risk if BTC doesn’t recover.

4/ What Could Go Wrong From Here?

The real risk is time. The pressure is already building. MSTR stock is down 23% this week alone. If BTC stays low for too long, and the stock continues trading at a discount:

While you were debating if AI would take your job, other people started using it to print money. Seriously.

That's not hyperbole. People are literally using ChatGPT to write Etsy descriptions that convert 3x better. Claude to build entire SaaS products without coding. Midjourney to create designs clients pay thousands for.
