In February, the Ethereum lending market experienced the most severe liquidation event in 12 months, with nearly $500 million in collateral liquidated. This is the second-highest monthly liquidation amount in DeFi history, only behind the $670 billion liquidated during the market crash in May 2021. Unsurprisingly, the surge in liquidations coincided with a market downturn, leading to a significant drop in total cryptocurrency market capitalization and triggering a wave of forced liquidations.
Most of these liquidations occurred on the two largest lending platforms, Aave and Compound, which handled the majority of the liquidations in February. The platforms' liquidation mechanisms allow third-party liquidators to repay part of the under-collateralized loans and acquire the borrower's collateral at a discount, typically between 5% and 15%, depending on the asset, thus providing efficient adjustment incentives to the market.

Additionally, according to data from the Web3 anti-fraud platform ScamSniffer, there were 7,442 victims of phishing attacks this month, with total losses reaching $5.32 million. The majority of incidents were caused by smart contract vulnerabilities, social engineering, account intrusions, and private key leaks.

SEC Cryptocurrency Working Group to Hold First Roundtable This Month
According to a statement released by the SEC on Monday, the newly established cryptocurrency working group will hold its first roundtable on March 21 at its headquarters in Washington, D.C., focusing on "How We Got Here and How We Move Forward—Defining the Status of Securities." This will be part of a series of meetings titled "Spring Sprint Towards Clarity in Cryptocurrency." Republican Commissioner Hester Peirce, who leads the working group, stated in the announcement, "I look forward to leveraging public expertise to develop a workable regulatory framework for cryptocurrency."
Compared to the Biden administration, there has been a significant shift in the SEC's approach to cryptocurrency regulation. Former SEC Chairman Gary Gensler had required crypto companies to register with the agency and claimed that most cryptocurrencies were securities, while filing lawsuits against multiple firms. Since Acting Chair Mark Uyeda established the cryptocurrency working group at the end of January, the agency has dismissed lawsuits and investigations against several crypto companies, including the recent case against Yuga Labs on Monday. In the past week, the SEC also announced that meme coins do not fall under the category of securities and may not be subject to federal securities laws.

According to Fox Business reporter Eleanor Terrett, Republican leaders in the House of Representatives have joined forces with Congressman Ritchie Torres to form the "Congressional Crypto Caucus," aimed at promoting legislation favorable to the crypto industry and forming a voting coalition in the House to support digital assets. The core group is reportedly an ideologically unified, bipartisan member group that can quickly mobilize to support key digital asset initiatives in Congress, while also becoming a driving force for policies aimed at fostering innovation, protecting consumers, and ensuring that cutting-edge technologies can thrive in the U.S., thereby solidifying the country's global leadership in digital assets and blockchain innovation.
Voices from the Industry
Gemini co-founder Tyler Winklevoss stated that XRP, SOL, and ADA are not suitable as crypto strategic reserves. Currently, only one digital asset in the world meets the standard, which is Bitcoin.
Andrew Tu, sales director at crypto market maker Efficient Frontier, expressed surprise at the inclusion of XRP and ADA tokens in Trump's crypto strategic reserve plan. Additionally, many details of the plan remain unknown, including how much the U.S. government will actually purchase and how the purchases will be funded. The crypto market has already forgotten all the pessimism from last week, but macroeconomic concerns remain a potential risk. If the stock market also declines, it could lead to another drop in cryptocurrency prices. If expectations do not align with reality, the market may fall again.
