Crypto majors are red but recovering after a big Sunday night selloff; BTC -2% at $66.4K; ETH -2% at $1,920; SOL -4% at $80. PIPPIN (+16%), ETHFI (+7%) and JST (+5%) led top movers. Over $400M in longs were liquidated as Bitcoin crashed below $65k last night. Tether’s circulating USDT supply has fallen by $1.5B so far in February and is now down nearly $4B from its local peak. Q4 2025 GDP badly missed expectations, coming in at 1.4% annualized vs. the 3% consensus; the 43-day government shutdown subtracted roughly 1 full percentage point, while exports reversed and consumer spending decelerated. Meanwhile, PCE inflation ticked up to 2.9%, giving markets slow growth alongside sticky prices. Bitwise warned of further Bitcoin price weakness, citing continued macro pressure and the need for equity market stability before any sustained crypto rally can materialize. South Korean regulators are facing scrutiny over a structural input error at Bithumb that accidentally credited $43B in Bitcoin to user accounts. World Liberty Financial announced plans to tokenize loan revenue interests in the Trump International Hotel & Resort in the Maldives via Securitize. Forty-one House Democrats pressed Treasury Secretary Bessent on World Liberty Financial’s potential banking charter, warning that approving a Trump family crypto company for a national bank license could threaten the independence of the US banking system.
