The global crypto market cap now sits at $2.44T, up 1.49% in the last 24 hours. But February was painful — a 22.6% drop to $2.36T, with the Fear & Greed Index hitting a historic low of 5.

Bitcoin dominance is 57.9%, $ETH dominance 10.8%. Most top-10 coins bled heavily last month: ETH -30.8%, SOL -29.6%, BNB -28.4%. Even DOGE dropped 22.7% despite one wild 14% surge day.

Why the dip? Hawkish Fed signals, tariff worries, and AI-driven selloffs treating BTC like a “tech risk” asset. Leverage is still high, but deleveraging looks late-stage — BTC is hovering near its realized price (~$54K).

Positive signals now:

Spot BTC ETFs seeing net inflows again

Tax refund season injecting liquidity

Stablecoin supply near cycle highs ($315B)

Trader tip: Watch $BNB and TRX — they held up better than most alts. Set alerts on Binance for any breakout above recent resistance.
