This indecision has led to a contraction in total market capitalization (<strong>TOTAL<\/strong>) of nearly <strong>$48 billion<\/strong> in a single day. Volume remains relatively moderate, suggesting that <a href=\"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/crypto-news\/bitcoin-70k-crypto-market-explodes\/\">whales<\/a> have not yet taken aggressive positions, leaving the market in a strategic waiting phase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.beincrypto.com\/img\/zXJ6A3XHkAPf2aKe4c0tjtOv8bA=\/smart\/bbf53bc6b3e446fb9381a30249b14474\" alt=\"Graphique d\u2019analyse du TOTAL (capitalisation totale du march\u00e9 crypto) montrant une phase de consolidation lat\u00e9rale apr\u00e8s un retracement, avec zones de support et r\u00e9sistance clairement identifi\u00e9es et volume en diminution dans un contexte de march\u00e9 h\u00e9sitant.\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>From a technical perspective, as long as BTC maintains its <strong>key support levels<\/strong>, the situation looks more like a <strong>healthy technical retracement<\/strong> rather than a major bearish reversal signal. However, the absence of new highs or immediate bullish catalysts weighs on overall sentiment, creating an atmosphere of hesitation. This stagnation tends to weaken altcoins, which heavily depend on the market leader&#8217;s momentum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Investors remain suspended, waiting for the emergence of a <strong>macroeconomic catalyst<\/strong> or institutional announcement capable of reigniting volatility. A <strong>confirmed breakout with volume<\/strong> could quickly reverse current sentiment and trigger a new bullish cycle. Conversely, a break of support levels would transform this consolidation into a genuine short-term alarm signal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%24btc&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">$btc<\/a> <br><br>Entry: 68 500<br>SL: 67 888<br>TP: 69 800<br><br>+2R monday vibe <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/zDotEkpZlz\">pic.twitter.com\/zDotEkpZlz<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Ezekiel\u271e (@duje_matic) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/duje_matic\/status\/2023356736590229784?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 16, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"dogecoin-under-pressure\">Dogecoin Under Pressure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In this uncertain climate, <strong>Dogecoin (DOGE)<\/strong> is experiencing a more pronounced correction, with a <strong>7.5%<\/strong> decline over 24 hours. Memecoins, considered high-beta assets, mechanically amplify Bitcoin&#8217;s movements. When BTC slows down or shows signs of weakness, capital generally exits the most speculative segments to return to assets deemed more solid like <strong>BTC<\/strong> or <strong>stablecoins<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>On-chain<\/strong> data indicates that long position liquidations have intensified selling pressure, causing a classic snowball effect: price decline, stop-loss triggers, then additional forced selling. DOGE is now testing <strong>critical support zones<\/strong>, and their breakdown could open the door to a deeper correction if overall momentum doesn&#8217;t improve quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%24DOGE&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">$DOGE<\/a> is dominated by long positions.

Passionn\u00e9 par la blockchain depuis 2019, j'ai publi\u00e9 plus de 1 200 articles et guides sur les cryptomonnaies, la DeFi et la blockchain, reconnus pour leur fiabilit\u00e9 et leur clart\u00e9.\u2028 Sp\u00e9cialis\u00e9 dans le trading on-chain et l'analyse des mouvements de baleines, je d\u00e9crypte les flux blockchain pour anticiper les tendances avant qu'elles ne deviennent \u00e9videntes. L'un de mes articles a \u00e9t\u00e9 cit\u00e9 par \u00c9ric Larchev\u00eaque, cofondateur de Ledger, t\u00e9moignant de la qualit\u00e9 et de la cr\u00e9dibilit\u00e9 de mes analyses.\u2028 Mon objectif reste inchang\u00e9 : rendre la crypto compr\u00e9hensible pour tous, des d\u00e9butants aux investisseurs confirm\u00e9s. Suivez-moi sur LinkedIn et X pour ne manquer aucune analyse.","sameAs":["https:\/\/x.com\/SimonDml1"],"url":"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/author\/simon_redacteur\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26639","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/47"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26639"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26639\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":26641,"href":"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26639\/revisions\/26641"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/26638"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26639"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26639"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/investx.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26639"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
