Ethereum fell below $2,000 this week, sparking debate about selling after trackers flagged wallet activity linked to Vitalik Buterin. On-chain data indicates roughly 19,300 ETH, worth near $39 million, were moved and sold around $2,000, while Arkham reports the founder still holds over 224,000 ETH. Technicals show lower highs and lows since late January.

Cardano peaked near $3.10 in late 2021 but trades around $0.29, roughly 90% lower.

World Liberty Financial has introduced a governance proposal that requires unlocked WLFI holders to stake their tokens for at least 6 months before gaining voting rights. Participants who vote at least twice during the lock period can earn 2% annual WLFI rewards, while large holders who stake 10 million or 50 million WLFI can qualify for Node and Super Node tiers, gaining special access to USD1 stablecoin services and extra incentives. The phased rollout will proceed after token holders approve the plan and a quorum of 1 billion eligible WLFI participates over a seven-day voting window.

On February 26, Polkadot's DOT jumped roughly 22%, touching a one‑month high near $1.74 as its market cap moved above $2.6 billion. Lark Davis linked the move to a March 14 halving that cuts annual issuance by 50% and growing spot ETF interest, while the RSI around 73 signals caution.

Ethereum rebounded above $2,000 after dropping below $1,800 on Feb. 6, leaving price up 18% since that dip.

In the last 24 hours, Shiba Inu's open interest reportedly declined by 5% to 9.9 trillion SHIB worth $62.79 million, even as the token staged a modest price rebound.

Market participants remain cautious as the meme coin struggles below its 26-day EMA and continues to print lower highs and lower lows.

XRP is still in a corrective structure on both USD and BTC pairs after a roughly 20% rebound from locally oversold conditions. Price on USDT faces resistance at $1.75–$1.90 and remains below the 100‑day average, while XRP/BTC is capped under 2,200–2,300 sats and a broader supply at 2,400–2,500 sats. The trend bias remains bearish unless these bands are reclaimed.

On-chain data shows a wallet labeled "0xf2af…48420" has sent more than 24 billion Shiba Inu tokens to Binance after holding SHIB for over two years, while still keeping about 25.47 billion SHIB. The address also holds BNB, ETH and LINK with a total portfolio around $459,000, and this sizable transfer comes as SHIB's price has fallen 11.43% since the start of 2026 and some large holders appear to be trimming exposure.
