Crypto Winter 2026: $BTC and $ETH Break Record Highs 📉
The market situation looks extremely worrying. What started as an expectation of “Uptober” last October has turned into a protracted slump.
Key facts:
• Bitcoin: closed February down 15%. This is the 5th consecutive “red” month — the first since 2018. The price is struggling to hold on to the $65,000–$66,000 range after a local bottom of $60,000.
• Ethereum: The situation is even worse. ETH has been falling for 6 months in a row. In February alone, the coin lost almost 20% of its value, barely holding above the psychological $2,000 mark.
• Breaking point: analysts consider October 10, 2024 to be the fatal day, when a $19 billion liquidation broke the market structure.
What’s next? The market is still recovering from the shock. 2025 was the first year in history after the halving to end in losses. So far, the bulls cannot find the strength to reverse.
