Binance bought another $100 million worth of Bitcoin on Feb. 4, 2026, adding the coins to its SAFU fund amid a market dip, as shown in a tweet (“JUST IN: Binance buys another $100,000,000 worth of Bitcoin for its ‘SAFU’ fund.”). The purchase came while prices slid and trading volatility spiked.
Bitcoin hit an all-time high near $126k in October 2025 and has since retreated about 40%. According to CoinGecko’s Bitcoin data, BTC dipped to roughly $73,000 earlier on Feb. 4 but recovered toward $76,000, and shows losses across 24-hour, seven-day, and 30-day measures.
Some firms see a rebound this year, arguing the asset follows a longer cycle. Bernstein and Grayscale say Bitcoin may be on a five-year path, which could produce a new peak this year.
Other voices warn of deeper risk. Michael Burry warns Bitcoin could enter a “death spiral.” He also stated BTC has not proven itself a safe haven like gold.
Crypto has shown large swings before, falling below $16,000 in 2022 and later reaching new highs. (Ed. note: October 2025 registered the largest single-day liquidation event in crypto history.) Low prices may present buying opportunities for some investors.
