<p><i>The crypto market is currently witnessing a significant "bloodbath" as we navigate through February 2026. <strong>Ethereum (</strong></i><i><strong><span>$ETH</span></strong></i><i><strong>)</strong> has seen a sharp decline, fueled by </i><i>$Bitcoin</i><i> losing its critical $70,000 foothold. This downward momentum has left the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap fighting for survival at the $2,000 psychological level.</i></p>
<adv/><h2>Vitalik Buterin Selling Spree Adds to Fear</h2>
<p>Adding fuel to the bearish fire, on-chain reports from Coinpaper and other analytics platforms have confirmed that Ethereum co-founder <strong>Vitalik Buterin sold 2,972 <span>$ETH</span></strong> (worth approximately $6.69 million) over the last three days. While these sales are often associated with philanthropy via the Kanro entity, the timing has intensified the "panic selling" sentiment among retail traders.</p>
<adv/><p>When the most prominent figure in the ecosystem moves such a volume to exchanges during a market-wide correction, it often signals a lack of immediate upward catalysts, causing investors to seek safety in hardware wallets to protect their remaining capital.</p>
<h2>Technical Analysis: The Path to $1,550</h2>
<p>The below <span>$ETH</span>/USD 1-hour chart shows a textbook <strong>descending channel</strong> that has dominated the price action since early February.</p>
<ul>
<li>
<strong>The $2,000 Brink:</strong> As of today, <span>$ETH</span> is trading near $2,084. The Stochastic RSI is hovering at <strong>27.56</strong>, which is nearing the oversold zone, but the sheer volume of the sell-off suggests that the bottom is not yet in.</li>
<li>
<strong>Resistance Flips:</strong> The previous support at <strong>$2,200</strong> has officially flipped into a "ceiling," making any relief bounce difficult to sustain.</li>
<li>
<strong>Bearish Targets:</strong> If the daily candle closes below the $2,000 mark, the next historical "demand zone" sits at <strong>$1,800</strong>. A failure there would open the door for a deeper crash toward <strong>$1,550</strong>, a level not seen since the consolidation phases of late 2025.</li>
</ul>

</div>
<h2>Market Contagion and Exchange Flows</h2>
<p>The crash isn't happening in isolation. With Bitcoin struggling to reclaim $70,000, high-leverage positions on major crypto exchanges are being flushed out. According to Reuters, institutional interest in <span>$ETH</span> ETFs has also cooled, with net outflows recording millions in losses this week.</p>
<p>Traders should exercise extreme caution. Until Ethereum can reclaim the $2,200 level and stabilize, the trend remains firmly to the downside. The breach of $2,000 could act as a "tripwire" for a massive liquidation event.</p>

贝莱德亚太区iShares主管尼古拉斯·皮奇表示，即使在亚洲，对加密货币进行适度的投资组合配置也可能推动大量资金流入市场。
