Signals of an increase in $BTC market share among global crypto hedge funds.

Messari: Starting on January 20, the BTC price per ounce of gold began to decline, breaking out of the 19 to 39 range it had been in since the last bear market, reaching a low of 12.78 on February 6. From December 1, 2022, when BTC was priced at $17,200, to January 4, 2026, when it reached $90,600, the BTC price per ounce of gold fluctuated from a low of 9.2 (January 4, 2023) to a high of 39.9 on December 17, 2024. Even though BTC consistently reached new all-time highs in 2025, peaking at $123,600 in August (+33.4% YTD) and $124,800 in October (+34.7% YTD), it failed to achieve a new all-time high relative to gold. This was because the price per ounce of gold rose from $3,350 on August 14, 2025, to $5,060 on February 14, 2026, while the BTC price declined.

Losses from the Drift protocol hack on Solana are now estimated at $280–285 million

According to the project team, the attack was prepared over several weeks. The attackers obtained the necessary approvals within the multisig in advance and quickly seized control of the protocol at the right moment.

The hacker managed to withdraw millions of dollars in USDC, USDT, JUP, WBTC, WETH, Fartcoin, and several other derivative tokens. After that, they began moving funds to Ethereum using Circle's USDC bridge. On social media, Circle has faced significant criticism for not promptly blocking the stolen funds, despite having the ability to do so.

On-chain analysts report that the attacker is currently continuing to convert the stolen tokens into ETH.

The DRIFT token dropped approximately 50% in the wake of the attack but was then sharply pumped on the Korean exchange Bithumb against the won, with the price surging nearly 200%.
