X Dismisses Crypto Brokerage Plans Ahead of Feature Launch

eToro Surges 20% on Crypto Revenue as Coinbase Disappoints
Tuesday, February 17, 2026, eToro (ETOR) stock closed up about 20%, supported by better-than-expected quarterly results and the still central weight of crypto in its model.

The digital euro is moving out of the laboratory into concreteness. The European Central Bank now sets a precise schedule: payment service providers will be selected as early as 2026, followed by the launch of a one-year pilot in 2027. After years of studies and consultations, the project reaches an operational milestone. Behind these deadlines lies a global ambition: to sustainably embed the digital euro at the heart of the European payment system and redefine the balance of power in the Eurozone.

Solana Faces Capital Outflows And Slowing On Chain Activity
Warning signals are multiplying around Solana. While SOL struggles to stabilize above a key technical threshold, derivatives market data show a clear retreat of bullish positions. Meanwhile, on-chain activity is slowing down and network revenues are eroding. As the 80 dollar level, now closely watched by investors, approaches, the question is no longer about a simple technical rebound, but about the very solidity of market support.

Ethereum Recovery Lacks Strength as Key Resistance Holds Firm
Ethereum is attempting to stabilize after heavy weekend selling, but confirmation of a durable bottom remains elusive. While price action has cooled following Sunday's drop, the broader market structure still reflects a corrective phase rather than the beginning of a sustained uptrend. Meanwhile, momentum remains subdued, and derivatives positioning suggests the recent bounce was largely driven by short-term reactions rather than fresh accumulation.

Bitcoin : 490 million bets on a crash to 40,000 dollars, should we be alarmed?
The Bitcoin options market shows a clear signal: the 40,000 $ put has become the second largest bet before the February 27 expiration, with about 490 million dollars of notional. In other words, some traders are paying dearly for "catastrophe" insurance. Is this a prophecy? Not necessarily. It is often a hedging reflex when the market has just been shaken. Bitcoin currently drifts around 66,000-68,000 $, after a sharp decline from the October highs. In this setting, options look less like a vote on the future and more like a seatbelt fastened at the last moment.
