Samson Mow Breaks Down Bitcoin Market Crash
In a video interview, Samson Mow shares his views on Bitcoin’s latest bloodbath, quantum fears and the catalysts that could drive Bitcoin’s next recovery.
In an exclusive Cointelegraph interview, Bitcoin OG Samson Mow shares his perspective on Bitcoin’s latest massive crash, what’s driving the sell-offs and why a rebound could be closer than most expect.
We discuss gold and silver’s rally, forced liquidations, the “quantum threat” to crypto, and examine the long-term Bitcoin thesis: Is Bitcoin truly designed to rise in price due to fiat devaluation, or is that a flawed narrative?
After months of relentless selling pressure, sharp liquidations and growing bearish sentiment, many investors are asking the same question: Why does Bitcoin keep falling despite strong fundamentals, and when could it finally recover?
According to Mow, Bitcoin’s unique role as the most liquid asset in global markets, combined with its 24/7 tradability, makes it particularly sensitive to downside shocks that more traditional assets often avoid, at least in the short term.
The discussion also explores one of the most important dynamics in today’s market: the relationship between gold, silver and Bitcoin. After a powerful rally in precious metals, Mow lays out the case for why capital rotation from other hard assets may be setting the stage for Bitcoin’s next move.

Cryptocurrency markets experienced a brutal sell-off this week as investor concerns grew over stagnating US liquidity following US President Donald Trump’s nomination of Kevin Warsh to lead the Federal Reserve.
Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded three consecutive days of outflows, with $431 million exiting on Thursday, according to data from Farside Investors. Bitcoin’s (BTC) price briefly dipped to $60,074 on Friday before recovering above $64,930 as of 7:49 a.m. UTC.
Warsh — who previously served as a Fed governor from 2006 to 2011 — is expected to continue the interest rate cut trajectory. His nomination may also signal that broader market liquidity is expected to “stabilize rather than meaningfully expand,” Thomas Perfumo, economist at crypto exchange Kraken, told Cointelegraph.
The industry recorded its 10th-largest liquidation event on Jan. 31, as more than $2.56 billion in leveraged positions were wiped out, according to derivatives data platform CoinGlass.
TRM Labs completes $70M investment round at $1B, becomes crypto unicorn
Blockchain intelligence platform TRM Labs completed a $70 million Series C funding round, valuing it at $1 billion, becoming the latest crypto company to reach unicorn status.
The investment round was led by seed investor Blockchain Capital, with participation from Goldman Sachs, Bessemer Venture Partners, Brevan Howard Digital, Thoma Bravo, Citi Ventures and Galaxy Ventures, according to a Wednesday news release.
TRM Labs seeks to equip public and private institutions with AI solutions that combat cybercrime. The company defends against illicit activities that increasingly rely on automation.
“At TRM, we’re building AI for problems that have real consequences for public safety, financial integrity, and national security,” wrote Esteban Castaño, co-founder and CEO of TRM Labs.
“This funding allows our world-class team — and the people who will join us next — to innovate alongside institutions on the front lines of the most consequential threats, and expand the potential of AI to meaningfully improve how our critical systems are protected.”
The $70 million round shows that capital is flowing into blockchain analytics platforms seeking to stop the spread of AI-fueled scams and cyberattacks, including from large traditional institutions.
Avalanche tokenization hits Q4 high as BlackRock’s BUIDL expands onchain
Blockchain network Avalanche saw increasing institutional adoption across tokenized money market funds, loans and indexes in the fourth quarter, driving the value of real-world assets (RWAs) on the layer 1 to a new high.
The total value locked of tokenized RWAs on Avalanche rose 68.6% over the fourth quarter of 2025 and nearly 950% over the year to more than $1.3 billion, boosted by the $500 million BlackRock USD Institutional Digital Liquidity Fund (BUIDL) that launched in November, Messari research analyst Youssef Haidar said in a Jan. 29 report.
Fortune 500 fintech FIS partnered with Avalanche-based marketplace Intain to launch tokenized loans in November, further boosting Avalanche’s TVL, Haidar said. Intain enables 2,000 US banks to securitize over $6 billion worth of loans on Avalanche.
The S&P Dow Jones also partnered with Dinari, an Avalanche-powered blockchain, to launch the S&P Digital Markets 50 Index, which tracks 35 crypto-linked stocks and 15 crypto tokens on Avalanche.
Traditional finance firms are increasingly confident about experimenting with tokenization, as the Securities and Exchange Commission has become more open to crypto products over the past year.
ParaFi Capital makes $35M investment in Solana-based Jupiter
Jupiter said it has secured a $35 million strategic investment from ParaFi Capital, marking the first time the Solana-based onchain trading and liquidity aggregation protocol has taken outside capital after years of bootstrapped growth.
The transaction involved token purchases at market prices with no discount and an extended lockup period and was settled entirely in Jupiter’s JupUSD stablecoin, the companies said. Financial terms beyond the $35 million investment were not disclosed.
The investment comes as Jupiter has processed more than $1 trillion in trading volume over the past year and expanded beyond swap routing into perpetuals, lending and stablecoins, according to the company.
The deal also included warrants allowing ParaFi Capital to acquire additional tokens at higher prices, a structure the companies said was intended to reflect long-term alignment.
The investment follows a recent expansion of Jupiter’s product offerings. In October, Jupiter rolled out a beta version of its onchain prediction market developed with Kalshi, followed in January by the launch of JupUSD, a Solana-native, dollar-pegged stablecoin built in partnership with Ethena Labs.
Jupiter’s native token (JUP) was up around 9% over the past 24 hours, according to CoinGecko data.
Aave winds down Avara, phases out Family wallet in DeFi refocus
Aave Labs said it is sunsetting its “umbrella brand” Avara in the company’s latest move to refocus on decentralized finance and simplify its branding.
Aave founder and CEO Stani Kulechov posted Tuesday on X that Avara, a company encompassing projects including the Family crypto wallet and previously the social media platform Lens, “is no longer required as we go all in on bringing Aave to the masses.”
Kulechov said the Apple iOS-based Family crypto wallet was also being wound down as the team has “learned that onboarding millions of users requires purpose-built experiences, such as savings, rather than generic, open-ended wallet experiences.”
The move marks Aave’s latest effort to refocus on products such as its flagship lending protocol as the project handed stewardship of Lens to the Mask Network last month, with Kulechov saying Aave’s participation in the protocol would be reduced to an advisory role so it can focus on DeFi.
Kulechov said in his latest post that Aave was “now united as one team of world-class designers, engineers, and smart contract experts, aligned around a single mission: bringing DeFi to everyone.”
Step Finance treasury wallets breached, $27M in SOL drained as STEP crashes 90%
Step Finance, a decentralized finance portfolio tracker on Solana, disclosed a security breach that led to the compromise of several treasury wallets, triggering a sharp sell-off in its native token.
“Earlier today, several of our treasury wallets were compromised by a sophisticated actor during APAC hours. This was an attack facilitated through a well-known attack vector,” the platform wrote in a post on X, adding that they have taken “remediation” steps.
Onchain data reviewed by blockchain security firm CertiK shows that roughly 261,854 Solana (SOL) (worth around $27.2 million) was unstaked and transferred from Step Finance-controlled wallets.
Step Finance has not yet confirmed the total scale of the losses. The team also did not disclose how the attacker gained access, nor whether the incident stemmed from a smart contract flaw, compromised keys or an internal access issue. It also remains unclear whether any user funds were affected, beyond protocol-owned assets.
DeFi market overview
According to data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView, most of the 100 largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization ended the week in the red.
The privacy-preserving Zcash (ZEC) token fell 35% to record the week’s biggest decline in the top 100, followed by the Story (IP) token, down 34% during the past week.
Thanks for reading our summary of this week’s most impactful DeFi developments. Join us next Friday for more stories, insights and education regarding this dynamically advancing space.
Ethereum price continued its strong downward trend this week, reaching its lowest level since May last year.
Summary
- Ethereum price dropped to a crucial support level as the crypto market crash accelerated.
- Its liquidations jumped to the highest level in months.
- Ethereum’s weighted funding rate dropped to its October lows.
Ethereum (ETH) token dropped to a low of $1,768, down by 60% from its all-time high. This retreat coincided with the broader crypto market crash as retail and some institutional investors dumped the coin.
Data compiled by SoSoValue shows that American investors have sold Ethereum ETFs worth $149 million this year. January is the fourth consecutive month that these funds have shed assets.
Additional data show that Ethereum bulls were heavily liquidated as the crash continued. Ethereum positions worth nearly $2 billion were liquidated since January 31, the highest figure since Oct. 10 when positions worth over $3.8 billion were wiped out.
Most importantly, the weighted funding rate turned negative and fell to its lowest level since Oct. 10. A negative funding rate indicates that investors anticipate the coin will decline. It happens when shorts are paying long positions in the perpetual futures market.
On the positive side, Ethereum’s network is doing well, with Nansen data showing a surge in transactions, fees, and active addresses. Ethereum handled 70 million transactions in the last 30 days, while the number of active addresses rose by 42% to over 15 million.
It also holds a leading market share across sectors in the crypto industry, including stablecoins, decentralized finance, and real-world asset tokenization. These fundamentals may help fuel its long-term recovery.
Ethereum price technical analysis
The weekly chart shows that ETH price has pulled back in the past few months. It has dropped from a record high of $4,950 to a low of $1,7686 today. Its lowest point was notable because it coincided with the ascending trendline connecting the lowest levels in June 2022 and April last year.
The price was also important because it was near the left shoulder of the inverted head-and-shoulders pattern. This pattern is one of the most common bullish reversal signs in technical analysis.
Therefore, a weekly close above $2,130 will point to a reversal, potentially to $3,000. On the other hand, a close below the support at $1,768 will invalidate the bullish outlook.
- Hedera and Stellar prices are up by 15% and 10% respectively as altcoin surge.
- HBAR and XLM eye key levels, helped by Bitcoin’s swift rebound to $70,000.
- Analysts warn that prices may yet dip after the latest relief rally.
HBAR and XLM are up double digits as cryptocurrencies look for a swift rebound following Thursday’s steep crash that saw over $2.6 billion in leveraged positions wiped out.
The altcoins are up as Bitcoin, which crashed to $60,000 amid the bloodbath, leads the recovery with a rebound to above $70,000.
Gains for Hedera and Stellar mirror the sharp upticks for XRP, Flare, VeChain, and Kaspa. Ethereum, which dipped to near $1,700 on Thursday, was testing the resistance at $2,000.
HBAR and XLM price gains
Hedera’s token dropped to lows of $0.073 as top coins crashed late Thursday, but currently hovers above $0.093 as buyers eye the $0.10 mark given up this week.
An uptick of over 15% in the past 24 hours amid a 65% surge in trading volume (to over $420 million) signals the strong buying that follows the latest dip.
Bulls will eye year-to-date highs of $0.13, likely if market sentiment improves further.
Stellar, which has tracked gains by XRP in the past, also jumped on Friday.
The altcoin was up 10% at the time of writing, slightly off the mark seen with a 13% uptick during early US trading hours.
XRP’s 18% spike as prices touched $1.52 following a dump to $1.13 pulled the closely related XLM higher.
CoinMarketCap data showed Stellar traded around $0.17, sharply up from the lows of $0.13 reached earlier in the day.
XLM was inching higher on increased volume, which details indicate stood at a 24-hour high of $426 million. Stellar bulls had helped push the daily volume up by more than 56% over this period.
While sentiment remains well within the extreme fear territory, analysts say a break to $0.20 could allow for fresh bullish momentum.
Bitcoin tops $70,000 as cryptocurrencies rebound
Bitcoin (BTC) is spearheading the crypto sector’s latest quest for a swift turnaround following a sharp crash.
The huge leverage unwinding saw BTC fall to $60,000, with a $10,000 drop in 24 hours marking the biggest one-day rout since bears annihilated bulls during the FTX crash in 2022.
Gains have come as open interest expands, with shorts covering positions and fueling the climb to the critical $70,000 support level. Daily RSI also shows a bullish divergence.
CoinShares says record ETP volumes, pause in whale selling, and BTC price moving below miners’ production costs are factors that have historically marked fresh accumulation “rather than the start of a new leg lower.”
However, crypto analyst Rekt Capital says bulls may yet have to take on bears.
The analyst shared his BTC price forecast as the cryptocurrency market bounced from Thursday’s crash.
According to Rekt Capital, a potential bearish acceleration is likely after another relief rally, with this based on Bitcoin’s historical chart patterns.
“History suggests there’s more downside to come,” he shared on X.
Bitcoin traded around $71,190 at the time of writing.
Solana’s price has rebounded from key support, but weak volume and heavy overhead resistance raise the risk that the current rally is only a temporary dead cat bounce.
Summary
- $70 high-timeframe support triggered the bounce, but structure remains bearish
- Price is entering major resistance near $87, with VWAP and Fibonacci confluence
- Low volume weakens the rally, raising rejection and downside rotation risk
Solana (SOL) price action has staged a short-term recovery after respecting a major high-timeframe support zone near $70. While the bounce has provided brief relief following sustained selling pressure, the broader technical picture suggests caution is warranted.
The recent advance has occurred on below-average volume and is now approaching a dense cluster of resistance, increasing the probability that this move may be corrective rather than the start of a sustained trend reversal.
As Solana trades higher into key technical barriers, market participants are closely watching whether buyers can generate enough momentum to shift structure, or whether sellers will reassert control and rotate price back toward recent lows.
Solana price key technical points
- $70 high-timeframe support has held, triggering a short-term bounce
- Current price is entering major resistance confluence, including VWAP and Fibonacci
- Low volume undermines the rally, increasing dead cat bounce risk
From a higher-timeframe perspective, the $70 level has proven to be a significant area of demand for Solana. This zone has acted as a structural support level, and the recent defense of this region allowed price to stabilize and push higher on the intraday timeframe. Following the bounce, Solana reclaimed its local point of control, signaling short-term acceptance and encouraging a brief bullish reaction.
However, while the bounce itself is technically valid, it must be viewed within the context of the broader trend. Solana remains in a bearish market structure, and isolated rallies from support do not automatically imply a trend reversal, particularly when other confirming signals are absent.
Resistance confluence caps the upside
As the price moved higher, Solana is now trading into a well-defined resistance zone around the $87 region. This area represents a significant confluence of technical factors, including the value area high, VWAP-based resistance, and the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement of the prior decline. Together, these levels form a supply zone where sellers are likely to become active.
Historically, when price rallies into such confluence zones without strong volume confirmation, the probability of rejection increases. This is especially true in bearish market environments, where rallies often serve as opportunities for distribution rather than accumulation.
Weak volume signals fragile rally
One of the most important concerns surrounding the current Solana rally is the lack of bullish volume. Despite the price moving higher, participation has remained below average, suggesting that large buyers have not meaningfully stepped in. In healthy trend reversals, a rising price is typically accompanied by expanding volume, reflecting growing demand and conviction.
In this case, the lack of strong volume suggests the move higher may be driven by short-covering or opportunistic buying rather than sustained accumulation. This dynamic aligns closely with the characteristics of a dead cat bounce — a temporary recovery within a broader downtrend that ultimately fails.
Bearish structure remains intact below resistance
As long as Solana remains below the current resistance cluster, the broader bearish market structure remains unchanged. Failure to reclaim and hold above this zone would keep downside rotation as the higher-probability scenario. A rejection from resistance would likely send the price back toward the $70 support, setting up a potential retest of that level.
Repeated tests of support often weaken demand, increasing the risk of a breakdown if buyers fail to defend the zone convincingly. As a result, how price reacts to any return to $70 will be critical in determining whether Solana can stabilize or if further downside is likely.
What to expect in the coming price action
From a technical, price action, and market structure perspective, Solana’s current rally appears vulnerable. The combination of low volume and heavy resistance overhead suggests that downside risk remains elevated. A rejection near current levels would favor a rotation back toward $70, keeping the bearish structure intact.
For the outlook to improve meaningfully, Solana would need to break above resistance with strong volume confirmation and sustain acceptance at higher value. Until that occurs, traders should treat the current move cautiously and remain focused on price behavior as Solana navigates this critical resistance zone.
Bitcoin and altcoins saw strong double-digit price rebounds after this week’s brutal sell-off, but do technical charts forecast a longer-term recovery, or is today’s rally just a dead cat bounce?
South Korean cryptocurrency exchange Bithumb has officially confirmed that an operational error led to an abnormal Bitcoin payout during a promotional event.
The incident triggered a brief but sharp price dislocation on the platform before markets stabilized within minutes.

Bithumb Confirms Accidental Bitcoin Payout
In a statement, Bithumb apologized to users, acknowledging that “an abnormal amount of Bitcoin was paid to some customers” during the event, which caused temporary volatility as recipients sold the assets.
“The Bitcoin price temporarily fluctuated sharply as some accounts that received the Bitcoin sold it,” the exchange said.
According to Bithumb, its internal monitoring systems quickly detected the abnormal transactions. The platform responded by restricting trading activity on the affected accounts, which helped contain the disruption.
“As a result, the market price returned to normal levels within 5 minutes, and the domino liquidation prevention system functioned normally, preventing chain liquidations due to the abnormal Bitcoin price,” the company stated.
The clarification comes after Bitcoin briefly traded significantly below global market rates on Bithumb, fueling speculation about the cause of the sudden price drop.
Bithumb emphasized that the incident was not the result of a cyberattack or security breach.

“We want to make it clear that this incident is unrelated to any external hacking or security breach, and does not pose any issues with system security or customer asset management,” the exchange said.
Impact on Bithumb Customer Funds
The company also reassured users that customer funds remain safe and that core services are operating normally.
“Customer assets are being safely managed as before, and transactions and deposits/withdrawals are currently operating normally,” the statement added.
Importantly, Bithumb indicated that no customers suffered losses as a result of the incident, noting that it is continuing to review the situation and will disclose further details as necessary.
“It is understood that this incident did not result in any loss or damage to customer assets. We will share all follow-up actions transparently and take full responsibility to ensure that not a single customer is harmed,” the exchange said.
The episode highlights how operational errors, even when quickly resolved, can trigger sharp short-term price distortions in crypto markets, particularly on individual exchanges where liquidity conditions differ from global averages.
Bithumb concluded its statement with another apology, saying it would strengthen safeguards and continue working to provide a stable trading environment.
“Once again, we deeply apologize for any inconvenience caused. We will continue to do our best to provide a stable and trustworthy trading environment.”

Bitcoin’s brutal crash just became a nightmare for the plan to put crypto in Americans’ retirement
Bitcoin’s 50% plunge from its October peak has done more than just erase $2 trillion in market value — it has reignited a fierce debate over the fiduciary math of the American retirement system.
As investors scramble to parse the drivers of the latest crash, industry observers are asking if volatile digital assets have any business being in a $12.5 trillion 401(k) market designed for stability.
“If investors want to speculate on crypto, they are welcome to do so on their own. 401ks exist to help people save for a secure retirement, not gamble on speculative assets with no intrinsic value,” said Lee Reiners, a lecturing fellow at the Duke Financial Economics Center and a co-host of the Coffee & Crypto podcast.
U.S. President Donald Trump issued an executive order in August that allowed 401(k) and other defined-contribution retirement plans access to alternative assets, including digital assets. Even Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) chair Paul Atkins said last week, just on the eve of the latest brutal crypto selloff, that “the time is right” to open up the retirement market to crypto.
But the recent rout in crypto might just turn retirement fund managers away from plans to add crypto to 401(k)s.
Reiners said that several large crypto companies, such as Coinbase (COIN), are already included in major equity indices, which means many 401(k) plans already have indirect exposure to crypto, and that should be enough.
“Unless Congress changes the law, plan sponsors are unlikely to include crypto, or ETFs, as plan options because they don’t want to be sued by their employees. For any employers that were considering it, I’m sure recent events have them reconsidering,” Reiners said.
The problem with putting people’s life savings into crypto is that the industry is relatively young and extremely volatile, and pension funds are for stable growth.
Buying and holding can work for assets like the S&P 500, which sees large volatility mostly during Black Swan events, such as the 2008 financial crisis or COVID-19 uncertainties. However, given the size of traditional markets, the government often steps in to stop the bleeding, and numerous regulatory frameworks exist to protect people’s investments.
But for crypto, much of its activity is just speculation, and that means prices can see extreme swings over a weekend or a week, which can quickly decimate billions in value with no regulatory oversight over market moves. This makes it even more nerve-wracking for investors to put their life savings into it.
Didn’t ‘get out quickly’
To put the uncertainty in perspective, many firms were likely blindsided by the sudden crash in bitcoin and crypto over the last few days.
In fact, the recent brutal selloff was so violent and sudden that BlockTrust IRA, an AI-powered retirement platform that has added $70 million in IRA funds in the past 12 months, was caught in the bloodbath.
“Sometimes we look at things that we say, ‘you know what, we should get out,’ and sometimes we don’t. And last week, we did not get out as quickly because a lot of the underlying fundamental data we’re looking at is still very strong,” Chief Technical Officer Maximilian Pace said in an interview with CoinDesk.
However, concerning the sudden selloff, Pace pointed to the firm’s “broad sense of analytics,” which operates effectively over longer timelines than short-term trading. That strategy helped it outperform in 2025, and the firm added that it is “not necessarily wavered by volatility.” The AI trading firm’s Animus Fund outperformed bitcoin throughout 2025 and was up 27% from January to December 2025, while the bitcoin buy-and-hold strategy was down 6% to 13% over the same period, the firm said in a press release.
In Pace’s view, zooming out and considering crypto investments over a five- to 10-year time horizon is the right way to think about 401(k) plans.
“You would be better thinking like a venture capitalist rather than like a day trader,” Pace said. “There are ways of de-risking the investment, either from a time perspective or from a strategy perspective, that make it more attractive or more acceptable for things like 401(k) programs. But like anything, there’s risk.”
The future of pensions
Perhaps there’s a need to zoom out further and think about the actual blockchain technology for retirement investment management than just putting money into tokens.
Robert Crossley, Franklin Templeton’s global head of industry and digital advisory services, is thinking exactly that. The retirement industry, which he says is siloed, slow-moving and over-regulated, could be revolutionized by onchain wallets that hold tokenized assets.
And by doing so, an individual’s digital wealth will be much more aligned with the rest of their lives, Crossley said.
“Whether you are a saver, an investor, a spender, you have all of these different financial activities which are currently serviced very differently by different providers in your life,” Crossley said in an interview.
If regulations come into play that don’t prohibit innovations, it is very likely that blockchain technology can eliminate such fragmentation of intermediaries. It’s possible that industry could see a supply of wallets that “unlock the possibility of programmable assets and securities and the ability to see all of your assets in one place and control them directly, rather than being intermediated,” he said.
“When something becomes tokenized, it becomes software. That software can be an asset, but it also could be a benefit, it also could be a liability. It could be a whole 401(k). It could be your whole DC [defined contribution] plan,” Crossley said.
Investors searching for the best crypto to buy now are increasingly focusing on projects that provide real infrastructure alongside structured early participation incentives. Among these projects, Remittix is gaining popularity with its PayFi payment framework and its 300% allocation incentive that is limited.
As discussions regarding cryptocurrency with actual use continue to grow, Remittix is included in discussions regarding the use of blockchain technology for payments and actual use of cryptocurrency.
Market participants are not only evaluating future price movement potential but also looking at how early allocation incentives can influence entry positioning. With the Remittix ecosystem progressing through product launches and rollout milestones, attention is shifting toward participation timing as access windows narrow across the platform.
Allocation Windows Tighten As Bonus Multiplier Drives Demand
Remittix is valued at $0.123 per RTX token, making it a part of the search discussions on the top crypto under $1. Remittix has managed to raise over $29 million from private funding, which is a clear indication of the demand for the blockchain infrastructure focused on payments.
Over 703 million tokens out of the 750 million available have already been secured. This is a clear indication that over 93% of the total allocation is no longer available. Participation activity has accelerated as availability continues to shrink across the ecosystem.
A major factor behind this surge is the 300% bonus available via email, allowing participants to receive up to three times more RTX tokens compared to their initial allocation. This incentive is widely viewed as one of the strongest allocation multipliers currently available among early stage crypto investment opportunities.
Infrastructure Launch Timeline Strengthens Real Utility Narrative
Remittix is widely recognized as a Remittix DeFi project focused on solving cross-border payment inefficiencies. The ecosystem is entering a critical rollout phase, supported by the Remittix Wallet already live on Apple devices while Android deployment continues toward release.
The broader PayFi platform is scheduled to go live on the 9th February 2026, marking the first full release of the crypto-to-fiat infrastructure. The platform aims to allow users to send digital assets directly into traditional bank accounts, addressing one of blockchain’s largest real-world adoption challenges.
Users can track ecosystem progress and allocation access directly through the Remittix platform homepage, where dashboard tools allow allocation monitoring and reward tracking.
As the platform rollout approaches, participation timing is becoming a major focus. Investors tracking how to buy crypto early are positioning themselves before broader payment infrastructure deployment expands user access.
Security Verification And Exchange Expansion Build Market Confidence
Remittix recently achieved a major credibility milestone after receiving full verification from CertiK. The project is also ranked as the #1 pre-launch token on CertiK, strengthening investor confidence and highlighting platform transparency.
The full security verification details can be reviewed through CertiK’s Remittix audit listing, which confirms project security standards and infrastructure validation.
The project has also revealed upcoming centralized exchange partnerships with BitMart and LBank. These future listings are expected to expand liquidity, increase accessibility and improve global exposure for RTX holders once trading access opens.
Allocation tracking, bonus activation and participation tools remain available through the Remittix dashboard portal, where referral rewards and allocation monitoring are currently active.
Core Factors Supporting Remittix Ecosystem Growth:
- Crypto-to-bank transfers designed for global payment efficiency
- Wallet infrastructure already deployed and expanding
- CertiK verification reinforcing platform security
- Global PayFi rollout targeting cross-border finance
- Referral rewards offering 15% USDT returns for ecosystem growth
Referral Rewards Expand Community-Driven Adoption
Remittix recently introduced a referral program allowing participants to receive 15% of new allocations in USDT, claimable every 24 hours through the dashboard. The program is helping accelerate ecosystem expansion while rewarding early network contributors.
The referral structure is designed to increase liquidity growth and broaden global participation. Many community members are using referral participation as an additional allocation strategy while supporting project expansion across new regions.
Final Allocation Phase Before PayFi Infrastructure Goes Live
Remittix is entering one of the most time-sensitive phases of its rollout as the PayFi platform launch approaches. With security verification completed, exchange partnerships revealed and wallet infrastructure already deployed, the ecosystem is transitioning toward full payment network deployment.
With over 93% of token allocation already secured, remaining access is narrowing rapidly. The 300% email allocation multiplier continues to drive strong participation as investors race to secure remaining availability.
As infrastructure rollout accelerates, the final allocation phase is expected to close quickly, marking one of the last opportunities to secure expanded RTX participation before broader ecosystem activation begins.

Ripple’s token has also surpassed BNB in terms of market cap after its sublime surge.
It was just hours ago, less than a day, when we wrote about XRP’s spectacular collapse as the asset plummeted to $1.11 for the first time since before the US presidential elections at the end of 2024.
This meant that it had shed over 50% of its value in a month as it peaked at $2.40 on January 6. Oh, how the landscape in crypto can change in hours sometimes, not even days or weeks.
What happened with XRP’s price since that local low has been nothing short of amazing. There were some signs about a potential rebound, such as the plummeting RSI metric, but even the most vocal XRP bulls were probably surprised by the extent of the rally.
After all, the cross-border token skyrocketed by 37% in about 18 hours – going from the aforementioned low to $1.54 before it faced some resistance and now trades around $1.50. This still represents a 34% surge in less than a day.
Santiment also weighed in on the token’s performance. The analysts acknowledged XRP’s rise in terms of market cap as well, as it now sits above BNB as the fourth-largest crypto asset.
They blamed the massive price pump in the past several hours on the overall network stability and growing activity on the XRP Ledger. Moreover, they showcased a chart indicating that Ripple whales went on an accumulation spree, with almost 1,400 separate $100K+ whale transactions (the highest in four months).
📈 Crypto markets are rebounding, but $XRP‘s price has been on a particularly huge tear. Since bottoming out below $1.15 just under 18 hours ago, the #4 market cap has now recovered to back above $1.50.

Purchases made on Nasdaq would be capped at 5% of Galaxy’s outstanding shares at the start of the program, according to the announcement.
Galaxy is listed on the Nasdaq and the Toronto Stock Exchange and operates across digital asset trading, asset management, staking, custody and data center infrastructure. The company did not disclose how much of the $200 million authorization it expects to use, or when repurchases might begin.
Mike Novogratz, founder and CEO of Galaxy, said the company is “entering 2026 from a position of strength,” adding that its balance sheet and ongoing investments give it flexibility to return capital when management believes the stock is undervalued.
The news comes three days after Galaxy reported a net loss of $482 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 and a $241 million loss for the full year, citing lower digital asset prices and about $160 million in one-time costs.
At the time of writing, shares of Galaxy were up about 17% over 24 hours, but remained down about 25% for the month, according to Yahoo Finance.

Market downturn impacts crypto stocks
Galaxy’s recent share-price decline reflects a broader pullback across crypto-related equities, as Bitcoin has fallen over the past month from January highs above $97,000 to to a low of about $60,300 on Thursday.
Shares of Coinbase Global (COIN) were down about 36% over the past month, while Circle Internet Group (CRCL) fell about 34% over the same period and about 65% over six months.
Strategy (MSTR), the largest public holder of Bitcoin with 713,502 BTC on its balance sheet, has fallen about 20% over the past month and nearly 68% over six months. Cointelegraph reported Thursday that the company posted a $12.4 billion net loss in the fourth quarter of 2025.
Bitcoin mining stocks have also declined, with MARA Holdings (MARA) down about 27% over the past month and about 52% over the past six months, while IREN Limited (IREN) is down about 8% on the month.
