The crypto tape stays in repair mode after the fast rejection from the low $70k area. Liquidity concentrates back into the biggest books, and that shows up in dominance and turnover.
Total crypto market cap sits near $2.357T with about $106.9B in 24h trading volume, while Bitcoin dominance is roughly 56.8% and Ethereum dominance is about 9.98%, at the time of writing on Feb 11, 2026. Those headline figures appear on CoinGecko’s All Cryptocurrencies table and global rollups.
Stablecoins market cap is around $311B, roughly a low-teens share of the total. In a post-drop environment, that stablecoin footprint matters because it represents sidelined buying power and the preferred settlement rail during stress.
The large-cap board is green across 24h, 7d, and 30d windows. That mix often reads as a relief bounce plus spot-led rebuilding rather than a clean breakout.
| Asset | Price (USD) | 24h | 7d | 30d |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BTC | $66,964.26 | -3.2% | -12.5% | -27.0% |
| ETH | $1,948.78 | -3.2% | -14.5% | -37.8% |
| XRP | $1.37 | -3.9% | -14.4% | -33.8% |
| BNB | $596.07 | -5.8% | -21.9% | -34.0% |
| SOL | $81.07 | -4.1% | -17.2% | -42.7% |
| TRX | $0.2742 | -1.0% | -4.3% | -7.8% |
Mechanically, the structure still looks defensive.
BTC dominance sitting near the high-50% range suggests the market still prices liquidity risk and prefers the deepest collateral routes.
BNB and SOL showing higher short-term beta fits a typical rebuild phase, where traders re-risk first in assets with deep venue integration and mature derivatives markets.
TRX lagging the 30d rebound versus higher-beta majors lines up with selective risk-taking rather than a broad alt lift.
Short-term leaders remain extremely dispersed, which is common when liquidity is uneven and narrative rotations are tactical. The list below comes from CoinGecko’s Top Crypto Gainers and Losers page (24h, Top 1000 view). CoinGecko notes the filter uses a minimum 24h volume threshold.
| Rank | Asset | Price (USD) | 24h Volume | 24h Change |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | PENGUIN | $0.02144 | $696,277 | +783,235.5% |
| 2 | ISLM | $0.03953 | $1,813,349 | +85.8% |
| 3 | FHE | $0.1472 | $16,180,198 | +47.3% |
| 4 | POWER | $0.3996 | $54,733,878 | +42.6% |
| 5 | HUNT | $2.40 | $60,279.74 | +41.1% |
Massive single-day percentage moves usually mean thin books or abrupt repricings, not broad accumulation. For market-read purposes, the most useful tells are whether volume clusters behind the move and whether liquidity persists on day two.
The downside list shows the market still punishes weaker setups quickly.
| Rank | Asset | Price (USD) | 24h Volume | 24h Change |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | ZAMA | $0.01937 | $217,819,048 | -29.0% |
| 2 | WARD | $0.09931 | $229,534,616 | -21.9% |
| 3 | INC | $0.5552 | $369,628 | -20.1% |
| 4 | XVS | $2.56 | $8,925,800 | -16.0% |
| 5 | SGB | $0.001577 | $317,480 | -15.1% |
Two mechanisms often drive sharp loser lists after a broader drop.
First, liquidity gaps appear when market makers widen spreads and bids step away, so price travels farther on the same sell size.
Second, funding and collateral stress forces traders to sell what they can, not what they want, so weaker alts become the funding source for rebuilding exposure elsewhere.
The move from the low $70k area down toward the mid-$60k area fits a classic post-leverage pattern. When BTC rejects a major round level, derivatives positioning often flips from long carry to defensive hedging, and liquidation cascades can amplify the first leg. Even after selling slows, the tape can stay jumpy because collateral and borrow availability matter as much as pure spot flow.
This is also where exchange parameter changes can become macro, even if they look like “routine updates.” Collateral ratio adjustments, margin pair changes, and withdrawal or network maintenance windows can temporarily tighten funding routes and raise the chance of forced de-risking for accounts that run close to maintenance thresholds.
Based on the current print near $66,964 on CoinGecko’s market-cap table, the immediate stabilization zone sits around the mid-$66k area, with the market effectively trying to build a base above the $66k handle.
If BTC holds that zone with steady spot volume and without a fast rebuild in leverage, the market usually gets room to rotate back into liquid alts. If BTC loses that zone and volatility rises again, the next stabilization attempt often shifts toward the next major round-number area below, because liquidity clusters around obvious strikes and common collateral thresholds.
Dominance is the fastest “temperature check.” If BTC pushes higher while dominance stays elevated, it typically means liquidity remains concentrated and alt strength stays selective. If BTC holds steady while dominance slips, it often signals rotation and re-risking rather than pure BTC defense.
The second tell is derivatives reflexivity. If open interest and funding rebuild quickly into resistance, the market can get top-heavy and vulnerable to another flush. If the rebound stays spot-led and leverage rebuilds slowly, price tends to grind instead of whipsaw.
