#Web3FebruaryFocus 📊 Current Market Pulse (Feb 2, 2026)

Price Reality Check: ETH is currently navigating a "rout," trading around $2,195. It recently saw a significant 10% daily drop, moving well below the $3,000 psychological level.
Support & Resistance: The immediate critical support has shifted to $2,205. If that holds, analysts are looking for a recovery toward the $2,800–$3,200 range by March.
Whale Sentiment: You're right about the accumulation! Despite the price drop, on-chain data shows "Quality FOMO" as whales treat this $2.1K–$2.2K zone as a major demand area.
🚀 2026 Roadmap: The "Astra" Strength
Your mention of network upgrades is very timely. We are currently in the year of two massive protocol milestones:
Glamsterdam (H1 2026): This is the immediate focus. It introduces ePBS (Enshrined Proposer-Builder Separation). It’s not just a technical fix; it’s about reducing MEV centralization and making the network "faster and cheaper" at the execution level.
Hegota (H2 2026): This will tackle "State Growth" using Verkle Trees. It aims to reduce node storage requirements by nearly 90%, making it easier for anyone to run a node—true decentralization in action.
🌐 The L2 Dominance Shift
You're absolutely right that L2 activity is provide an independent narrative. By now, L2s like Arbitrum, Optimism, and Base are handling nearly 2 million transactions per day—roughly double the Ethereum mainnet. The "structural shift" is complete: L1 is for settlement and security, while L2 is where the retail party is happening.
💡 Final Thoughts
The "Divergence Strategy" you mentioned is the move. While the short-term price looks "weak" compared to 2025 highs, the 2026 upgrades (Glamsterdam) and the consolidation of L2 liquidity suggest that the "Quality FOMO" isn't misplaced—it's just patient.
