Bitcoin-Wetten auf Polymarket deuten auf ein erhöhtes Abwärtsrisiko für 2026 hin, da Analysten auf rückläufige Trends und angespannte Liquiditätsbedingungen in den USA hinweisen.
Solana (SOL) fell below $100 for the first time since April 2025 as a sharp sell-off pushed Bitcoin under $75,000.
As BTC dumped to its lowest level in nearly 10 months, Solana touched lows of $96.43.
This happened as crypto markets experienced extreme volatility.
Dips for all the top coins, including Ethereum and XRP, resulted in over $2.5 billion in liquidations in 24 hours.
Per data from Coinglass, more than $4 billion in long positions have been liquidated across the crypto market over the past 4 days.
Most of the bets wiped out were longs, with this coming amid Friday’s historic collapse in metals.
Gold dumped from above $5,500 and silver plunged 39%, losses that cascaded across the crypto sector.
The wipe-out is one of the largest liquidations in crypto, with the top of the ladder being the nearly $20 billion liquidated in October 2025.
The dramatic collapse in crypto prices coincided with a sharp surge in capital exit from digital asset investment products.
According to asset manager CoinShares, the digital asset market recorded a second straight week of outflows, with over $1.7 billion exiting amid the panic selling.
The outflows mean the sector has now reversed year-to-date inflows, pushing global year-to-date net flows to $1 billion.
CoinShares head of research James Butterfill said the redemptions signal “a marked deterioration in investor sentiment towards the asset class.”
“We believe this reflects a combination of factors, including the appointment of a more hawkish US Federal Reserve Chair, continued whale selling associated with the four-year cycle, and heightened geopolitical volatility,” Butterfill added.
Notably, Solana saw over $31.7 million in net outflows last week, the altcoin’s first weekly outflow in three weeks.
Bears have established dominance in the first weeks of 2026, continuing the trend witnessed in the last quarter of 2025.
Macroeconomic conditions and geopolitical headwinds have contributed to this outlook, and analysts at QCP point to the ETF outflows and broader sentiment as likely negative catalysts for cryptocurrencies in the short term.
SOL could nosedive under $100 amid this trend. A retest of the $96-$80 area will embolden bears further.

However, a flip in sentiment portends a continuation above the psychological level.
Solana price was above $102 at the time of writing, slightly up as other coins eye a rebound.
If Bitcoin reclaims $82,000 and risk assets stabilise, SOL price could target the $120-$135 supply wall next.

Nach dem Einbruch am Wochenende fiel Bitcoin am Montag auf 74.600 US-Dollar und erreichte damit ein Neunmonatstief.

XRP slid sharply over the weekend as a broad risk-off move swept through cryptocurrency markets, triggering heavy liquidations and pushing the token to its lowest level since December 2025.
The selloff came alongside steep declines in Bitcoin, Ethereum and even traditional safe havens such as gold and silver, underscoring the depth of the market rout.
The turbulence unfolded even as Ripple, the payments firm closely associated with XRP, secured a key regulatory milestone in Europe after receiving final approval for an Electronic Money Institution license in Luxembourg, strengthening its ability to scale regulated payment services across the European Union.
XRP is attempting to stabilise after a sharp weekend selloff that dragged its price down to around $1.5, as bearish pressure swept through cryptocurrency markets.
After failing to sustain gains near $1.8, the token fell to its lowest level since December 2025.
The decline came amid a broader market rout that saw Bitcoin slide below $75,000, and Ethereum drop toward $2,100, pulling most major altcoins lower.
The risk-off move extended beyond crypto.
Gold, which had recently climbed above $5,500 an ounce, fell to about $4,620, marking its steepest single-day decline in more than a decade, while silver also posted heavy losses.
Selling pressure intensified as the US entered a partial government shutdown, while markets showed little reaction to President Donald Trump’s nomination of Kevin Warsh as the next Federal Reserve chair.
Warsh is widely viewed as supportive of digital assets.
In crypto markets, more than $2.5 billion in leveraged positions were liquidated on Jan. 31.
According to Coinglass, this ranked as the 10th-largest liquidation event on record, though well below the $19 billion wipeout seen during the October 10, 2025 crash.
On-chain data showed that more than $10 million in XRP positions were liquidated in the past 24 hours, with about $7.4 million of those in long positions.
CoinGlass data indicated that more than 4,300 traders were affected, while daily volatility in XRP exceeded 7.5%.
Some market participants blamed Binance for exacerbating the selloff, though the exchange and its former chief executive Changpeng Zhao rejected those claims.
XRP’s market capitalisation has fallen to roughly $97 billion, reflecting a sharp contraction as investors moved away from risk assets.
Daily trading volume declined 16% to around $5.4 billion, signalling weakening liquidity and limited buying interest.

From a technical perspective, the daily chart remains broadly bearish.
While the relative strength index suggests a potential rebound from oversold levels, weak momentum could limit upside.
The MACD continues to indicate strengthening bearish conditions, with the histogram widening.
As of Monday, February 2, XRP was trading near $1.6, recovering modestly from its weekend lows.
A sustained break below $1.5 could open the way toward the $1.24 support area.
On the upside, a move back above $1.8 may help stabilise sentiment and allow for a potential retest of the $2.00 to $2.30 range.
Ripple has received final approval from Luxembourg’s financial regulator for a full Electronic Money Institution license, converting a preliminary authorization granted in January.
The license, issued by the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier, enables Ripple to scale its blockchain-based payments and digital asset services across the European Union under a regulated framework.
The approval builds on Ripple’s recent regulatory gains in the UK, where the Financial Conduct Authority granted the firm an EMI license and crypto asset registration, strengthening its European expansion strategy.
