PANews February 21 News, 10 Research posted on X platform that the current structure of the crypto market is changing. The overall altcoin market remains fragile, Bitcoin is in an oversold zone, but at the same time, the market positions of crypto stocks and some selected altcoins are quietly shifting, with some assets beginning to outperform. Among them, Optimism (OP) is under pressure, with OP-USDT currently breaking below the 7-day and 30-day moving averages, indicating a bearish technical outlook, with a 24.4% decline over the past week. Additionally, the Base blockchain is gradually diverging from the OP Stack, which means their previous revenue-sharing partnership has ended. Optimism has officially launched its first monthly token buyback plan, committing to use 50% of the remaining Superchain revenue to repurchase OP on the open market. The liquidity staking protocol ether.fi has migrated all its non-custodial operations to the OP mainnet to leverage its enterprise-level scalability, providing some fundamental support for OP.

Analysis: Bitcoin treasury companies have sold off for three consecutive weeks for the first time, which may lead to increased short-term pressure on BTC.
ChainCatcher News reports that, according to market sources, Bitcoin's treasury companies have experienced three consecutive weeks of selling for the first time in history. This suggests that Bitcoin prices may face increased short-term pressure. If the market does not see new demand, prices could approach the "new bear market lows."
Analysts point out that macroeconomic uncertainty and ETF capital outflows further suppress demand. Last week, Trump announced an increase in global tariffs from 10% to 15%, which exacerbates the decline in market risk appetite.
