Digital financial markets and core assets as of the morning of February 4, 2026.
📉 Bitcoin (BTC): A "Roller Coast" After the Liquidity Shock The Bitcoin market is experiencing extremely volatile hours, marking its lowest point since the US election more than a year ago. 24-hour volatility: BTC witnessed a fierce sell-off from a high of $79,180, plummeting to the $72,900 region before a slight recovery. Opening price this morning: BTC started the day at $75,770. The fact that the price held above $75,000 after the sharp drop shows that "bottom-buying" is still present, but market sentiment remains extremely cautious (fear). Cause: Pressure from new tariff announcements and personnel changes at the Fed (the nomination of Kevin Warsh as Fed Chairman) triggered a wave of liquidation of leveraged positions worth billions of dollars. 🔷 Ethereum (ETH) and Altcoins: Under Common Pressure Ethereum: ETH is currently trading above $2,250. Compared to BTC's recovery, ETH is somewhat slower as money is prioritizing safe haven assets with the highest liquidity. Trend: Most top Altcoins have fallen by 5-10% in the last 24 hours, following in the footsteps of "big brother" Bitcoin. #SachtonyMartket #BTC #ETH #GT #ICP
