Today (February 23), the Web3 industry and cryptocurrency market experienced severe fluctuations, with macro clouds and internal ecological adjustments coexisting. Here are the key points for today: #特朗普新全球关税 $BTC
📉 Market conditions: collective plunge, over 130,000 people liquidated
Due to geopolitical tensions (the United States may take military action against Iran) and the uncertainty of tariff policies, the cryptocurrency market suffered a significant setback today.
· Bitcoin (BTC): briefly fell below $65,000, reaching a low of $64,232.8, with a 24-hour drop of over 4%.
· Ethereum (ETH): fell below $1,900, with a drop of about 5.8%.
· Other Major Coins: Solana (SOL) plummeted over 9%, with BNB, Dogecoin, and others also experiencing declines generally exceeding 5%.
· Liquidation Data: In the past 24 hours, the number of liquidations across the network exceeded 136,700, with a total liquidation amount reaching $465 million, primarily driven by long liquidations.
· Institutional Viewpoints: Some analysts believe the market has entered a 'bear market,' and if the situation worsens, Bitcoin may further drop to $31,000. The founder of Galaxy Digital stated that this reflects the industry's shift from speculative-driven growth to a painful transformation led by institutions.
🌉 Industry Dynamics: Strategic contraction coexists with ongoing financing
Despite the bleak secondary market, there are still important developments in ecological construction:
· Web3 Foundation Strategic Adjustment: Web3 Foundation announces the gradual closure of official Polkadot support services (including human customer service and AI chatbots), and existing support pages will no longer be maintained. In the future, more reliance will be placed on community channels (such as Discord, Reddit) for assistance, which is seen as part of its strategic adjustment.
· Super App Completes Tens of Millions in Financing: The Web3 trading and payment application 'Based,' built on Hyperliquid, announced the completion of $11.5 million in Series A financing, led by Pantera Capital, with participation from Coinbase Ventures and others. The application positions itself as a consumer-facing 'super app,' integrating trading, wallets, fiat deposits and withdrawals, and cryptocurrency Visa card functions, and plans to expand into AI-driven 'smart agent' services.
