The Fear & Greed Index slid from 49 to 44, with sentiment shifting from neutral toward fear, while spot gold continued to climb—signaling rising demand for safe havens. Among notable movers, DUSK rallied sharply on its mainnet rollout and expectations around RWA-related partnerships; NAM posted violent swings amid thin liquidity and a technical breakout; and FRAX drew inflows on the back of its rebrand and broader ecosystem expansion. Today’s alpha highlights included a structural signal from Ethereum staking—its entry queue reaching the highest level since August 2023 while the exit queue fell to zero—alongside a renewed debate between Ethereum and Solana over “ossification vs. evolution,” and growing attention to supply-chain style security risks tied to IDE auto-execution

Gate Research Daily Report: On January 26, crypto market sentiment fell into the extreme fear zone, with major assets under pressure and risk appetite continuing to contract. Mid- and small-cap tokens such as TAIKO, AUCTION, and BOB moved higher against the broader trend, driven by technical upgrades, capital rotation, and supply constraints, indicating localized sector rotation. Structurally, the SocialFi narrative is rapidly unwinding, with social tokens broadly down more than 90%; Bitcoin payments are seeing accelerated offline adoption in Las Vegas and other locations; and while on-chain stablecoin settlement volumes continue to expand, their share of real-world payments remains below 0.02%.

Gate Research:From January 13 to January 26, 2026, the crypto market remained broadly weak amid macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty. Major assets traded lower in a defensive, range-bound structure, while market-cap performance showed clear divergence: the top 400 tokens posted mild pullbacks, whereas lower-cap segments outperformed. High-beta names such as PENGUIN and RIVER rallied sharply, while several previously overheated speculative assets saw steep corrections. Volume–price dynamics were also uneven—only a handful of tokens showed strong volume-price confirmation, while most remained in low-volume, weak-trend conditions. This suggests capital is still rotating tactically rather than positioning for a full trend reversal, though selective opportunities persist. Meanwhile, sectors such as NFT platform incentives, decentralized node networks, social task-based point systems, and prediction market ecosystems have begun rolling out airdrop-style campaigns.

Meanwhile, a tech-led selloff fueled a cross-market risk-off move, alongside notable industry developments including Bit Digital’s exit from Bitcoin mining and the revival of The DAO with a $220 million Ethereum security fund.

Gate Research Daily Report: On Feb. 9, the crypto market entered a choppy recovery phase after a deleveraging shock, with flows showing a clear structural split: capital crowding into BTC while major altcoins remain under pressure. BTC has rebounded and is consolidating around $70,000, which remains the key pivot for bulls vs. bears; ETH is being weighed down by whale deleveraging and debt-repayment selling, and may repeatedly test the $2,000 psychological level in the near term. On the thematic side, AI Agents and memes remain the high-beta core, with BNKR, PIPPIN, and PENGUIN leading gains. In our Alpha section, we highlight Vitalik’s view that algorithmic stablecoins represent “true DeFi,” Cathie Wood’s thesis that gold strength tends to lead and BTC follows, and Tether’s accelerating shift toward a conglomerate model via global diversification, governance upgrades, and expanded hiring.

Gate Research Daily Report: Bitcoin’s $69,000–$71,000 range is the key zone for bulls to validate the sustainability of the rebound. Ethereum is gradually stabilizing at lower levels, with MACD turning bullish and price moving toward the upper Bollinger Band, signaling a clearer short-term technical recovery. News circulating on X has intensified retail FOMO, driving ZKP up 32.80% over the past 24 hours, while SAFFRONFI surged more than 40%, mainly due to increased short-term trading activity. Bitcoin selling pressure has temporarily eased, but a durable market recovery will require a revival in spot demand. A crypto market structure bill may pass within the next few months, with stablecoin yields emerging as the key point of contention. Meanwhile, Jump Trading plans to exchange liquidity provision for minority equity stakes in Kalshi and Polymarket.

Gate Research Daily Report: On February 11, the crypto market remained under downward pressure, with major assets trading in a weak consolidation range as BTC and ETH hovered at elevated levels without clear directional momentum. On the thematic front, capital continued to rotate into high-narrative trades: POWER surged on strong volume driven by the Web3 incentive-layer narrative and ecosystem partnership developments; PIPPIN rebounded sharply on the back of AI creator IP momentum and sentiment recovery; while SONIC strengthened amid the SVM expansion narrative and intensified community exposure. Structurally, the tokenized Treasury market surpassed $10 billion in size, reinforcing RWA’s role as a foundational asset within on-chain finance, while Gate TradFi’s cumulative trading volume exceeded $33 billion.

Gate Research Weekly Report: After a sharp sell-off, the market has entered a consolidation phase, with BTC and ETH still capped by key moving averages. Capital is rotating back into high-beta sectors such as AI, signaling a modest recovery in risk appetite. Ethereum’s staking ratio has surpassed 30%, reaching a new all-time high and pointing to ongoing supply contraction and a rebalancing of liquidity structures. Zerohash’s integration with Monad and USDC is advancing the deployment of stablecoin payment infrastructure at the L1 level. Tether’s U.S. Treasury holdings continue to expand, accelerating the integration of stablecoins into the short-term interest rate system.
