* Market Commentary: On January 30, the crypto market came under broad pressure, with BTC breaking below $84,000 and briefly dipping to around $81,000, entering a consolidation phase after a high-volume selloff. ETH weakened in tandem, retreating from above $3,000 to the $2,700 range, with its bearish structure yet to fully repair and price action remaining subdued.
* Trending Tokens: Despite weakness in major assets, capital rotation remained active. SENT surged 68.01% over 24 hours, driven by the AI + Web3 narrative and rising trading activity. GWEI climbed 58.14% amid renewed interest in Ethereum infrastructure and governance tokens, while EDGE posted a 17.53% gain on improving sentiment within the DeFi sector.
* Alpha Insights: A tech-led equity selloff triggered a cross-market risk-off move, with crypto liquidations exceeding $1 billion in a single day. Bit Digital announced a full exit from Bitcoin mining to refocus on an Ethereum treasury and AI infrastructure, while Ethereum core members revived The DAO and launched a $220 million security fund, drawing attention as a long-term structural development.
