Bloomberg: Bitcoin Falls Below $80,000 Key Level, Confidence Crisis Deepens

2026.02.01 15:13:55

**Bitcoin Falls Below $76k in Weekend Trading, Hits 2018-Longest Monthly Losing Streak** (Bloomberg) — Bitcoin briefly dropped below $76,000 during weekend trading on February 1, marking a roughly 40% retracement from its 2025 high and the longest monthly losing streak since 2018. Market participants note the decline wasn’t driven by panic selling or systemic risk—but rather by fading buy-side demand, tightening liquidity conditions, and eroding market confidence. Data shows Bitcoin has reacted sluggishly to geopolitical tensions, a weaker U.S. dollar, and a rebound in risk assets; recent sharp swings in precious metals have also failed to spark fund rotation. Spot ETFs continued to see net outflows, institutional buying interest has cooled significantly, and market depth remains over 30% below its October 2024 peak. Analysts broadly agree the correction isn’t over yet. Kaiko forecasts Bitcoin may need another 6 to 9 months for a meaningful recovery; some firms have also warned the crypto could struggle to hit new highs over the next 1,000 days. Overall, prices, correlations, and market sentiment are under simultaneous pressure.

Citrini’s view: Intel’s product portfolio and pricing power are improving; its Q2 server CPU shipment share declined, while revenue rose.

Citrini analyst Jukan pointed out in a post that a noteworthy phenomenon emerged for Intel in the server CPU market in Q2 2026: its shipment share declined, while its revenue share rose. That quarter, AMD’s server CPU shipment share increased by around 0.9 percentage points, Intel’s dropped by approximately 1.4 percentage points, and ARM also began appearing in the share charts. However, in terms of revenue share, Intel bucked the trend by growing roughly 1.7 percentage points. Jukan believes that Intel’s ability to generate higher profits while selling fewer chips indicates an improvement in its product mix or pricing power—likely driven by a higher proportion of high-end server chips with a high average selling price (ASP). While Intel has long been losing ground to AMD in the server market, this quarter’s counter-trend rise in revenue share may signal that its high-end product strategy is starting to pay off. Some bullish voices on Intel have emerged in the community.

It is critical that the Fed is accountable for inflation data. Whether the central bank needs to raise rates to return inflation to its 2% target, or if inflation is already on a downward trajectory, remains an open question.
