If Ethereum breaks $2100, mainstream CEX cumulative short liquidation pressure will reach $652 million
February 22 Coinglass data shows: Ethereum (ETH) breaking above $2,100 would trigger $652 million in cumulative short liquidations across major centralized exchanges (CEXs).
Conversely, a drop below $1,900 would result in $506 million in cumulative long liquidations for the same platforms.
BlockBeats Note: Liquidation charts do not display the exact number or value of contracts being liquidated. The bars on these charts instead represent the relative importance of each liquidation cluster compared to neighboring clusters (i.e., "strength"). This means the charts illustrate how significantly a price will react at a specific level: higher "liquidation bars" indicate a more intense response due to a surge in liquidity.

XRP Records Largest Realized Loss Since November 2022, Weekly Realized Loss Reaches $1.93 Billion
On February 22nd, Santiment data shows XRP just logged its largest realized loss since November 2022—$1.93 billion in weekly realized losses—signaling a concentrated panic sell-off by holders.
BlockBeats Note: A realized loss occurs when an investor sells an asset for less than their purchase price, locking in actual losses. Unrealized losses, by contrast, are paper losses that aren’t realized (since the asset hasn’t been sold) and aren’t counted in such data.
On-chain data shows a sharp jump in realized losses typically signals many holders are selling at a loss—reflecting widespread stop-loss triggers or "surrender selling"—and often coincides with a notable drop in market sentiment.

OpenClaw Bans Key Words Such As "Bitcoin" and "Crypto" Due to Token Controversy, Founder Distances Themselves from Crypto Community
February 22, the open-source AI agent framework OpenClaw gained attention recently following a token-related incident. During its rebranding process, the project’s account was hijacked, letting scammers launch a fake Solana-based token named CLAWD. At one point, the token’s market cap surged to $16 million—only to plummet over 90% after the founder disavowed any connection to it.
Founded by developer Peter Steinberger, OpenClaw was initially called “Clawdbot.” But it got a trademark warning for being too similar to Anthropic’s model name “Claude.” It was briefly rebranded to “Moltbot” before settling on OpenClaw. While transitioning from old GitHub and X accounts to new ones (before the handover finished), scammers seized the accounts and rolled out the CLAWD token, sparking speculative trading.
Steinberger later said publicly he’d never issue a token, stressing any project selling coins under his name is a scam. After the incident, the official OpenClaw Discord server banned all

Wietkowo: New Round of Talks to End Russia-Ukraine Conflict to Take Place Within Three Weeks
February 22 — According to the Ukrainian state news agency, U.S. Special Envoy Kurt Volker told Fox News in an interview that Ukrainian and Russian delegations are set to hold a new round of negotiations within three weeks, with the potential to lead to a high-level summit.
Volker said: “Both Jared Kushner and I hope the proposals we’ve put forward to both sides will get them together in the next three weeks — possibly even leading to a summit between President Zelensky and President Putin. That summit could eventually become a trilateral meeting with President Trump joining.”
He added that Trump would only attend if he believed he could secure the best possible outcome. Earlier, Zelensky had stated the next round of peace talks should take place in Geneva within ten days.

Current mainstream CEX, DEX funding rate displays a weakening bearish market sentiment
As of February 22, Bitcoin has maintained a range-bound trend, according to data from Coinglass. Funding rates across major centralized (CEX) and decentralized (DEX) exchanges indicate easing bearish sentiment in the market, with specific rates detailed in the accompanying image.
**Note from BlockBeats**:
The funding rate is a fee mechanism used by crypto exchanges to align perpetual contract prices with the underlying asset’s spot price. It facilitates fund transfers between long and short traders—exchanges themselves do not collect this fee. The rate adjusts the cost or profit of holding positions to keep contract prices closely tied to the underlying asset.
**Funding Rate Interpretation**:
- 0.01% = baseline rate
- >0.01% = generally bullish market sentiment
- <0.005% = generally bearish market sentiment
