Gate.io News Bot Message, January 17, 2026, according to CoinMarketCap market data, the overall cryptocurrency market is showing a correction trend. The privacy coin sector is facing profit-taking pressure, and some mid-cap tokens have also experienced significant pullbacks. The following are the top five cryptocurrencies with the largest declines in the past 24 hours:
1️⃣ XMR (Monero)
📉 Current Price: $626.25 | Decline: -9.32%
📊 24H High/Low: $717.69 / $612.02 | Market Cap: $11.552 billion
⚠️ Monero experienced a profit-taking wave after reaching a new all-time high earlier, with a short-term market cap evaporation of about $2.1 billion. Funds in the privacy coin sector are rotating more rapidly, some traders are starting to sell at high levels, leverage short positions are increasing, and short-term volatility has significantly amplified.
2️⃣ ICP (Internet Computer)
📉 Current Price: $4.09 | Decline: -9.24%
📊 24H High/Low: $4.68 / $4.07 | Market Cap: $2.243 billion
⚠️ ICP surged nearly 45% earlier due to the inflation reduction plan in the MISSION70 white paper, but the short-term gains attracted profit-taking. Although exchange supply has decreased, the profit-taking pressure at high levels remains significant, and the correction is a normal technical adjustment.
3️⃣ CC (Canton)
📉 Current Price: $0.12 | Decline: -6.52%
📊 24H High/Low: $0.13 / $0.12 | Market Cap: $4.686 billion
⚠️ Canton recently gained institutional attention due to JPM Coin’s launch by JPMorgan, but the short-term rally has pulled back. Market expectations for the implementation of institutional-grade applications have been partially realized, and technical signs indicate a short-term adjustment.
4️⃣ MORPHO (Morpho)
📉 Current Price: $1.34 | Decline: -2.36%
📊 24H High/Low: $1.38 / $1.34 | Market Cap: $509 million
⚠️ Morpho’s market concerns about operational transparency have arisen after the official announcement that its Discord server will switch to read-only mode on February 1 and related security upgrades, leading to a short-term technical correction.
5️⃣ LDO (Lido DAO)
📉 Current Price: $0.603 | Decline: -1.87%
📊 24H High/Low: $0.61 / $0.59 | Market Cap: $511 million
⚠️ As a mainstream staking ecosystem token, Lido DAO’s decline is relatively mild, reflecting the overall risk sentiment in the market being somewhat cautious. The Ethereum ecosystem remains resilient amid macro adjustments, but funds still exhibit cautious attitudes.
📉 Market Summary: Today’s crypto market shows a differentiated correction. The privacy coin sector faces profit-taking due to previous gains, and innovative low-market-cap projects like ICP are also experiencing technical pullbacks. Signs of liquidity tightening still exist across the market. Investors are advised to observe cautiously, avoid chasing high during volatile periods, and focus on key support levels to prevent breakdown risks.

Hedera On-Chain Data "Cooling" Alert Triggered: HBAR May Drop Another 20%, $0.073 Becomes a Critical Support Level
February 12 News, in 2026, Hedera (HBAR) is facing a new round of downward pressure. Affected by weakening on-chain indicators and the overall sluggishness of the crypto market, its price has been continuously declining since early January. Data shows that HBAR has recently fallen about 5.66%, with a year-to-date decline of over 30%. As one of the top market capitalization digital assets, its retracement since the peak in July last year has approached 70%, and the long-term trend remains under pressure.
The on-chain fundamentals also signal caution. According to DeFiLlama data, the total value locked (TVL) on the Hedera network has dropped from $146 million in July last year to approximately $57.2 million, a significant decrease. Meanwhile, the weekly revenue of dApps within the network has declined nearly 70% from the mid-October high last year. The simultaneous cooling of developer activity and user engagement has weakened the ecosystem’s attractiveness to funds and has also dampened market confidence.
