《Financial Times》 Article Criticizes Cryptocurrency: Bitcoin Still Severely Overvalued, Crash Imminent
On February 9, the Financial Times published an article noting that while Bitcoin has seen dozens of major crashes, hundreds of crypto firms have gone bankrupt, and countless people have lost their life savings, the token has always bounced back after each drop.

February 9th — Per GMGN monitoring (via [link]), Base ecosystem meme coin CLAWNCH saw its market cap briefly surge to nearly $10 million before pulling back to $7.5 million, with a 62% gain over the past 24 hours.

BlockBeats notes that meme coin trading is highly volatile, largely driven by market sentiment and hype, and lacks tangible value or use cases. Investors are advised to exercise caution.
