Let me walk you through what I’m seeing here, nice and clearly. Price pushed up aggressively and formed a local top, but the follow-through didn’t hold. After the rejection from the highs, momentum cooled down and selling pressure started to step in. Right now, $MORPHO is pulling back into a key intraday zone where buyers previously reacted, and this area will decide the next move. A clean hold can give a relief bounce, while weakness below support opens room for continuation to the downside. Trade Setup Entry: 1.16 – 1.17 Targets: • 1.19 • 1.21 Stop Loss: 1.145 Keep risk controlled and let price confirm direction before committing fully.

Today’s top news: Crypto majors mostly chop on day; BTC at $87,000 Visa expanded its stablecoin settlement to U.S. banks, leveraging Solana FDIC greenlights proposal showing how U.S. banks can issue their own stables Rainbow Wallet announces TGE for Feb 5, 2026 along with airdrop Cantor Fitzgerald calls for $200B+ price target on HYPE in new report 💵 A Big Day for Stablecoins Two separate announcements today pointed in the same direction. Stablecoinsare moving deeper into the U.S. financial system. 📌 What Happened First, Visa expanded its USDC settlement program to U.S. banks, enabling participating institutions to settle obligations using Circle’s USDC on Solana. The expansion allows banks and payment firms to move funds outside of traditional banking hours, with onchain settlement finality and integration into Visa’s existing treasury and reconciliation systems. Visa has previously tested stablecoin settlement internationally and with select partners, but this marks a broader U.S. rollout. At the same time, the FDIC approved a proposed rulemaking to implement the GENIUS Act, outlining how FDIC-supervised banks could issue payment stablecoins through subsidiaries. The proposal describes application requirements, governance standards, reserve and liquidity expectations, and ongoing supervisory oversight. Banks would be required to maintain high-quality reserves backing issued stablecoins and operate within defined risk-management and compliance frameworks. 🗣️ What They’re Saying “Visa is expanding stablecoin settlement because our banking partners are not only asking about it—they’re preparing to use it”- Visa’s Global Head of Growth Products and Strategic Partnerships Rubail Birwadker “Fintech and crypto innovators increasingly ask us to bring stablecoins into their existing product suite.” - Gilles Gade, founder, president, and CEO of Cross River Bank A powerful milestone in the mainstream adoption and acceptance of USDC, with Visa announcing that all US card issuers (banks, fintechs, crypto firms) can now settle directly with Visa using USDC.

Visa’s expansion shows how large payment networks are integrating stablecoins into existing systems, while the FDIC’s proposal outlines the framework banks would use to issue and manage them. The combination matters. Institutional adoption tends to accelerate once large financial intermediaries and regulators move in the same direction. BlackRock predicted stablecoins would be a mega force of 2026 impacting the global economy, in their 2026 outlook report. It looks like they will be right… amp;amp;lt;span data-mce-type="bookmark" style="display:inline-block;width:0px;overflow:hidden;line-height:0" class="mce_SELRES_start"amp;amp;gt;amp;amp;lt;/spanamp;amp;gt;amp;amp;lt;span data-mce-type="bookmark" style="width:0px;overflow:hidden;line-height:0" class="mce_SELRES_start"amp;amp;gt;amp;amp;lt;/spanamp;amp;gt; 🌎 Macro Crypto and Memes A few Crypto and Web3 headlines that caught my eye: Crypto majorswere mostly flat;BTC -0.3% at $87,000; ETH -1% at $2,930, BNB -1% at $858, SOL even at $128 NIGHT (+11%), MORPHO (+10%) and MYX (+5%)led top movers Bitwiseforecastednew Bitcoin all-time highs in 2026, pointing to structural factors like institutional capital inflows, regulatory clarity, and continued adoption to outweigh historical bearish factors TheSECended its four-year investigationinto AAVE, closing the file without recommending enforcement action VISAexpandedits stablecoin pilot to more US Banks and to include settlement on Solana The FDICapproveda proposal to implement the GENIUS Act, outlining how FDIC-supervised banks could issue payment stablecoins through subsidiaries Trumpsaidhe would be open to nominating Democratsto the SEC and CFTC, a shift that could help unblock the stalled Senate crypto market-structure bill Elizabeth Warrenraised concernsabout DEX risks, flagging PancakeSwap and alleging links to Trump-connected flows and North Korea–tied laundering The FTCsaidNomad must repay recovered fundsafter the $186M 2022 bridge hack Hong Kong influencersface chargesrelated to their promotion of the collapsed JPEX exchange, which left investors with roughly $206 M in losses The South Korean governmentapprovedabout $15M in debt relief for crypto traders In Corporate Treasuries / ETFs The Bitcoin ETFshave seen net outflowsof $635M so far this week, with ETH seeing -449M KindlyMDwas warnedit risked Nasdaq delisting after shares stayed under $1, and said it had until June 2026 to regain compliance In Memes / Onchain Movers Memecoin leadersare mostly red with Fartcoin leading;DOGE -1%, Shiba -2%, PEPE -1%, PENGU -3%, BONK -2%, TRUMP -1%, SPX +1%, and FARTCOIN +4% Burwick Lawshared an ongoing lawsuitagainst Pump Fun and Solana WOJAKrebounded 60% to $31M; Anon +60% to $23M and 1 jumped 42% to $7M 💰 Token, Airdrop Protocol Tracker Here’s a rundown of major token, protocol and airdrop news from the day: Cantor Fitzgeraldreleaseda 62-page report on Hyperliquid, calling for a $250B market cap on a 10-year time frame Hyper Foundationto voteon recognizing the Assistance Fund HYPE as officially burned and thus removed from circulating supply BNBannounceda new stablecoin “unifying liquidity across use case” is coming soon Rainbow Walletannouncedtheir TGE coming Feb 5, 2026 RedotPayraised $107Min a Series B round to expand its stablecoin payments platform Tetherco-led an $8M roundinto Speed, backing Lightning-based stablecoin payments Worldcoinlaunchedtheir WorldID on Tinder to help solve its bot problem 🚚 What is happening in NFTs?
