Larry Fink Warns of U.S. Debt Out of Control: Could Confidence in the Dollar Be Eroded? Are Bitcoin and Gold New Safe Havens?
February 11 News, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink warned that if the United States cannot effectively control the rising debt interest expenses, global markets' confidence in the dollar could be severely impacted. He bluntly stated that if the fiscal situation continues to worsen, the dollar could eventually become "a credit symbol like Monopoly game money," a statement that quickly sparked heated discussions in financial markets.
According to the latest data from the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the U.S. federal debt has approached $38 trillion, and about 20% of the government’s annual budget is used to pay interest. As interest rates remain high, borrowing costs continue to rise, and debt interest is rapidly squeezing the fiscal space originally allocated for infrastructure, education, healthcare, and defense. Fink pointed out that if this trend gets out of control, it will weaken the U.S. fiscal flexibility and undermine investors’ long-term confidence in the stability of the dollar.

Pre-NFP Shock in the US: Bitcoin Drops to $66,000, Market Bets on Employment Data Influencing BTC Movement
February 11 News, due to the market's high attention to the upcoming release of the U.S. January non-farm payrolls and unemployment rate, Bitcoin prices have sharply retreated to around $66,000 in the past 24 hours. The dollar and U.S. Treasury yields are moving in sync, with Wall Street generally believing that employment may rebound, which would weaken the Federal Reserve's possibility of cutting interest rates in June, thereby putting pressure on risk assets including Bitcoin.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) will release the January employment report today. Economists expect non-farm payrolls to increase by about 70,000, higher than December's 50,000, indicating that the labor market, while slowing, remains resilient. The forecast range varies from a decrease of 10,000 jobs to an increase of 135,000, with the unemployment rate possibly remaining at 4.4%. Average hourly earnings are expected to grow by 0.3% month-over-month, with the annual growth rate slowing to 3.6%.

US Jobs and CPI Storms Are Coming: Where Will Bitcoin Price Go Under the Shadow of the Government Shutdown?
On February 11, Bitcoin prices slightly retreated but remained around $66,000, with the market holding its breath as it awaits guidance from several key macroeconomic data points, including the latest U.S. employment report, Consumer Price Index (CPI), and the potential risk of a government shutdown. Ethereum also came under pressure, with prices still below $2,000, reflecting a generally weak risk appetite in the crypto market. The current total market capitalization of digital assets is approximately $2.29 trillion, down about 2.5% over the past 24 hours.
In the United States, the delayed January employment report will disclose non-farm payrolls, unemployment rate, and wage inflation, which are considered important indicators for assessing the economic start in 2026. Previously, in December, about 50,000 new jobs were added, and the unemployment rate dropped to 4.4%. Economists expect January's new job additions to rebound to 55,000, with the unemployment rate likely remaining unchanged. Tariff policies, immigration restrictions, and the accelerated replacement of traditional jobs by artificial intelligence are seen as the main variables disrupting the labor market.

ZEC plummets 25% but still "holding on": Why do Zcash miners and users continue to bet on the privacy coin?
February 11 News, privacy cryptocurrency Zcash (ZEC) continues to weaken amid rising market risk aversion, with a decline of over 25% this month. In January, ZEC plummeted more than 41%, continuing its downward trend since 2026. As of press time, ZEC is priced at approximately $227.22, down another 4.29% in the past 24 hours.
Looking back at its trend, ZEC once surged over 440% in October 2025 against the trend, becoming one of the few strong assets at that time. Despite volatile fluctuations in November and December, it ultimately closed slightly higher. However, after entering 2026, global risk assets came under pressure, coupled with rumors of Electric Coin Company (ECC) parting ways with Bootstrap, which significantly cooled market sentiment and led to continuous selling pressure on ZEC.
