On 16 February, the number of XRP holders climbed to a record 507,110, even as the token traded around $1.50 after a 9% daily drop. Long-term and institutional investors maintained exposure, but derivatives data showed rising short interest, $245.7 million leaving perpetual markets, and a funding rate near 0.0101%, keeping downside pressure on price. XRP remains in a descending channel, with key levels around $1.67 on the upside and $1.11 if selling intensifies.

Aave's token rose 12% over the past 24 hours as deposits into the lending protocol increased by $589 million, lifting TVL to $27.797 billion. The move followed the "Aave Will Win" framework, which would route 100% of product and protocol revenue to the DAO treasury. However, according to CoinMarketCap, daily trading volume fell 23% to about $368 million, highlighting a potential divergence.

Bitcoin has retreated sharply from about $126,000 to roughly $68,000, with on-chain metrics indicating the asset is nearing an undervalued band. The MVRV ratio around 1.1, repeated ETF outflows, and subdued spot demand highlight persistent selling, while long-term holder behavior may determine whether this phase evolves into a broader recovery.

The memecoin market, valued at $29.51 billion against a $2.3 trillion crypto market, is being examined as a potential early indicator for Bitcoin and altcoin trends. Recent analysis highlights a perfect positive correlation between FLOKI and Bitcoin, alongside rising memecoin trading volumes and a growing stablecoin supply of $306.1 billion, suggesting shifting risk appetite.

According to AMBCrypto's analysis, Decred (DCR) fell 16% recently as investor sentiment weakened, with CoinMarketCap's Community Sentiment slipping from 74% to 71%. CoinGlass reported approximately $1 million in net outflows, while trading volume dropped 20% to $6.7 million, hinting at a fading downswing and a possible near-term recovery.

Aptos's APT token has fallen sharply, losing 39% over the past 30 days and 67% from its November high of $3.37, while price action now hovers near the $1 support area. A scheduled $12.73 million token unlock on 10 February, equal to 1.13% of total supply and 1.48% of circulating supply, could add selling pressure even as on-chain indicators show growing TVL and exchange outflows. Technical tools such as RSI and MACD point to seller exhaustion and the potential for a corrective bounce, though further downside remains possible.

In the past day, Bitcoin Cash rose by as much as 20% to an intraday peak of $544, driven by stronger on-chain usage and bullish futures positioning. Between 1 and 17 February, BCH transactions increased from 9,769 to 14,240, while short liquidations of about $1.5 million far outpaced $102,340 in long liquidations. However, a declining hashrate and roughly $1.1 million in spot selling over the same period could challenge the sustainability of the rally.

Zcash's ZEC dropped about 16% over the past 24 hours, yet price action between $218 and $212 shows early signs of stabilizing. A daily Fair Value Gap between $116 and $77, a potential double bottom near $202.44, dense liquidity around $250–$260, positive funding rates, and recent spot inflows together point to elevated odds of a rebound if support zones hold.

Bitcoin has fallen from a peak of $126,000 to $78,000, while spot trading volume has dropped from about $200 billion in October to roughly $104 billion after the October 2025 crash. Despite five straight months of negative spot netflows and shrinking stablecoin and derivatives capital, spot buyers accumulated around $2.1 billion in BTC between 19 and 26 January, offering a fragile signal of a possible short‑term rebound.
