A shaky beginning marked crypto’s entry into 2026 - Bitcoin and Ethereum both stumbled early, showing some of the faintest momentum seen in years.

Stillness before motion sometimes hides in downturns like these. Frozen in place, markets hover between dread and optimism today. Chasing gains holds little appeal, yet so does missing out on what might come next. Begins with a question - might this moment count as that buildup time people mention? Could it fit the pattern even though the calendar barely shows spring? Your move at this moment - building up bit by bit, or holding back until things feel clearer?
