AVAX recently successfully broke through the descending wedge consolidation pattern, but the upward momentum has significantly weakened. Over the past few days, the price has retreated about 9%, indicating that the bullish strength is starting to tire. Meanwhile, the Stochastic RSI has fallen back from the overbought zone, also reflecting a cooling phase in the market. This development coincides with the Avalanche Foundation announcing the establishment of a Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) Foundation in the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM). The move aims to enhance transparency and promote the adoption of Avalanche in the Middle East region.

The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) recently received a No-Action Letter from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), allowing it to develop traditional asset tokenization services over the next three years. This development not only marks a critical step toward the blockchain integration of the U.S. financial markets but also brings significant positive news for Chainlink, as the two parties have maintained close cooperation since 2024. According to the announcement, the Depository Trust Company (DTC), a subsidiary of DTCC, will launch a controlled production environment in the second half of 2026, officially issuing tokenized securities on approved Layer 1 and Layer 2 blockchain networks. The initial batch of tokenized assets will include highly liquid targets such as Russell 1000 index constituents, major ETFs, and U.S. government bonds, including Treasury bills and long-term bonds. During the initial phase, this service will only be open to DTC participants and their clients for strict monitoring.

Odaily Planet Daily reports that US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen is proposing significant adjustments to the government's approach to financial regulation and stability. Yellen will recommend changes to the work guidelines of the Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC), promoting a more relaxed regulatory environment and a freer approach. In a letter on Thursday, Yellen wrote: “The Council will collaborate with its member agencies and support their assessment of whether certain aspects of the financial regulatory framework constitute excessive burdens and negatively impact economic growth, thereby undermining financial stability.” FSOC was established after the 2008 financial crisis to monitor and respond to systemic risks, and Yellen serves as the chair of this council. This plan marks a shift away from the long-standing tendency of the council to strengthen regulation. Yellen will also establish a working group “to explore opportunities for AI to enhance the resilience of the financial system, while monitoring the potential risks that AI applications may pose to financial stability.”

Odaily Planet Daily News: Cryptocurrency analyst Jason Pizzino's latest research indicates that Bitcoin price may not touch its long-term bottom until October 2026. Currently, BTC trading volume continues to decline, resembling the pattern seen from late 2022 to early 2023, which reduces the likelihood of a short-term bull market return. Meanwhile, CryptoQuant data shows that the share of large investors' deposits on exchanges has dropped from 47% in mid-November to the current 21%, with the average deposit size decreasing by 36%, indicating that selling pressure is weakening. If this trend continues, BTC price is expected to rebound to $99,000. Analysts point out that the 200-day simple moving average acts as a strong resistance, market risk appetite is insufficient, and Bitcoin may need to go through a consolidation period before a new round of market activity begins.

AllianceBernstein Chief U.S. Economist Eric Winograd stated that the Fed's balance sheet expansion and the resumption of short-term Treasury purchases will only affect the very short end of the U.S. Treasury yield curve and will not impact the long-term portion. The initial goal is to purchase approximately $40 billion in Treasury bills per month.

Pi Network today officially launched the mainnet migration option within the app, attracting widespread attention from the global community. Users have noticed the new toggle switch has appeared, signaling that the project is taking another significant step toward full mainnet deployment. According to the core team's previous plan, mainnet features will be gradually rolled out from late 2025 to early 2026. This update aligns perfectly with the roadmap and is seen as an important signal that the ecosystem is moving from the preparation phase into the execution phase. The launch of the mainnet migration feature follows Pi Network's major technological breakthrough in the KYC system. Starting from late 2025, the team introduced a new AI review model, greatly improving user identity verification efficiency. According to user feedback, the previously frustrating long queues for verification have been significantly improved, with approval cycles shortened to 3 to 14 days. The new AI model not only enhances document recognition accuracy but also addresses delays in manual review stages, reducing backlog by nearly half and paving the way for large-scale mainnet migration.

FTX and Alameda Research have resumed their monthly routine token unlock process. This week, both released a total of 194,861 Solana (SOL), valued at approximately $25 million. Lookonchain initially detected this movement, and Arkham Intelligence subsequently confirmed the related data. Since FTX's bankruptcy liquidation has been ongoing on schedule since 2025, this month's operation aligns with previous cycles and does not show signs of additional selling pressure, but the scale still raises market caution. Data shows that SOL tokens flowed from an Alameda-related staking account into the FTX liquidation structure for ongoing asset disposal. Alameda played an important role early on in the Solana ecosystem's validation and development, holding a large amount of long-term staked positions. The bankruptcy administrator is currently adopting a "periodic unlock + gradual disposal" approach to minimize market disruption.

Sei (SEI) price tests the $0.14 key resistance level again amid surging trading volume, and its new integration with Xiaomi Wallet has also drawn market attention to its long-term potential. As of now, SEI is priced at $0.1421, up 2.1% in the past 24 hours, up 2.3% over the past week, but down 24% over the past 30 days, remaining in a generally weak structure. The rapid increase in market activity is the core driver of recent market trends. In the past 24 hours, SEI's spot trading volume surged 261% to $237 million. Derivatives data is also strong, with open interest increasing 8.7% to $100 million, and derivatives trading volume rising 202% to $400 million. This indicates that funds are establishing new positions, which typically suggests that a directional breakout in the market is imminent.

Polkadot (DOT) price recently retreated again to about $2, which is considered a key long-term accumulation zone since 2022. According to the latest insights from analyst Egrag Crypto, this area has structural support and is regarded as DOT's "home zone" over the years, but it is currently unclear whether the market has truly bottomed out. DOT price touched around $2, with a significant pullback during trading, followed by sideways consolidation in this critical price region. Egrag Crypto pointed out that he had previously positioned in DOT at higher prices and continued to add to his holdings during the recent pullback. Based on historical trends and Polkadot's core role in multi-chain infrastructure, this zone is seen as an important position of long-term structural support.

Led by Tom Lee, co-founder of Fundstrat, Ethereum vault company BitMine has once again increased its bet on Ethereum. According to Arkham data cited by EmberCN, BitMine purchased 33,504 ETH through FalconX on Wednesday, with a total value of approximately $112 million. Although the company has not officially confirmed the transaction, its recent accumulation pace aligns with its established strategy. BitMine is one of the world's largest Ethereum vault institutions. This year, it has continued to expand its holdings and reaffirmed its long-term goal — holding 5% of the total ETH supply. According to its latest 8-K filing, as of December 7, BitMine held 3,864,951 ETH, 193 BTC, $1 billion in cash, and $36 million in Eightco Holding shares (the company associated with the Worldcoin WLD token).

Sygnum's latest release of the "2025 Asia-Pacific High Net Worth Individual Report" shows that wealthy investors in Asia are accelerating their adoption of digital assets. The survey covered over 270 high-net-worth and professional investors across 10 Asia-Pacific markets. The results indicate that 87% of respondents have incorporated cryptocurrencies into their investment portfolios, with 49% allocating more than 10% of their assets to digital assets. The overall median allocation is between 10% and 20%. Additionally, up to 60% of wealthy investors plan to further increase their allocations in the future, reinforcing Asia's leading position in the global crypto market. The report emphasizes that this trend reflects the maturation of the private wealth management market in Asia. Behaviors previously dominated by speculation and short-term trading are being replaced by "wealth preservation" and "intergenerational planning." Ninety percent of respondents consider digital assets an important component of long-term wealth management, and diversification is the primary motivation for their crypto investments. Correspondingly, high-net-worth investors are demanding more complex products, including active management strategies, outsourced portfolio management, and yield enhancement tools.

BlockBeats News, December 11 – Recently, mortgage rates have eased somewhat, but the trend remains unstable. The Federal Reserve does not directly control mortgage rates through the federal funds rate; instead, the main 30-year mortgage rate typically follows the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield, which is influenced by market expectations of future economic trends and monetary policy. This means that sometimes mortgage rates can differ from the Federal Reserve's decisions to cut rates or keep short-term rates steady. For example, when the Fed cut rates in September, market uncertainty about whether further cuts would follow actually pushed up mortgage rates. While this upcoming meeting may not replicate such a scenario, its outcome could still disturb the 10-year Treasury yield and indirectly impact mortgage rates. Investors, prospective homebuyers, and homeowners are all highly focused on mortgage rate movements. However, the current fluctuations in mortgage rates have a significant effect on the overall

BlockBeats News, December 10 — After investing hundreds of billions of dollars to build the most expensive team in tech history for months, Meta CEO Zuckerberg is now deeply involved in daily R&D and is pushing the company's strategy toward directly monetizable AI models. According to sources, a new model codenamed "Avocado" is expected to be released in Spring 2026 and may be launched in a closed-source manner (i.e., strictly controlled by Meta and sold for access). This move marks a significant deviation from Meta's long-standing advocacy of an open-source approach. Zuckerberg is dedicating a large amount of time to a core team called TBD Lab, which, during the training of Avocado, even integrated third-party models including Google Gemma, OpenAIgpt-oss, and Alibaba Qwen. Meanwhile, M

Odaily Planet Daily reports that Tom Lee posted on the X platform stating that today is Federal Reserve meeting day (December Federal Open Market Committee meeting decision). Over the past 4 weeks, the market has struggled, and before the "hawkish rate cuts," no one was willing to go long on stocks. This seems to increase the likelihood of a stock market rally after the Fed's decision.

Odaily Planet Daily Report: Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin posted on X platform stating that occasionally losing finality is not a big deal. Finality is intended to ensure that blocks are not rolled back. If due to a significant client error, finality is delayed by a few hours, as long as the erroneous block is not finalized, the situation can be tolerated, and the chain will continue to operate during this period. Computer science PhD Fabrizio Romano Genovese agrees with Vitalik Buterin's view, noting that when finality is lost, Ethereum becomes more like Bitcoin. He explained that Ethereum's finality mechanism is that when a block receives more than

According to official news, Gate Ventures announced that it has led a strategic investment in Goblin Finance to support its construction of native liquid staking and yield infrastructure in the Aptos ecosystem. The scale of this round of financing is US$1 million, and the funds will be used to help the project accelerate the improvement of the income aggregation mechanism and ecological collaboration. As a venture capital institution under Gate Group, Gate Ventures has long focused on the infrastructure construction and innovation direction of the multi-chain ecosystem.

Currently, Goblin Finance has achieved rapid growth within the Aptos ecosystem, and its innovative income model and product mechanism are expected to become an ecosystem

At a time when market activity is slowing down, the SUI ecosystem has ushered in a favorable critical infrastructure. SUI officially announced that ZenLedger has been integrated into the network to provide users with automated tax processing, accounting tools, and audit compliance processes. The service covers more than 300 exchanges and 40 blockchains, making it one of the most comprehensive financial reporting solutions for current SUI users. This move targets the complex tax filing problem that has long plagued crypto traders, laying the foundation for SUI to attract a wider range of retail and institutional investors. Despite the positive progress in ecological construction, short-term data presents mixed signals. SUI's total DeFi value locked has decreased slightly by 1% in the past 24 hours, maintaining at $923 million, indicating stable funds but not expanding. The scale of lock-up is still considerable, which strengthens the confidence of long-term holders, but the incremental funds of the overall ecosystem have not yet returned.

The American Federation of Teachers (AFT) has formally submitted a petition to the U.S. Senate to withdraw the latest version of the Responsible Financial Innovation Act, citing the "serious risks" it could pose to the pension system, the wealth of working families and the economy as a whole. AFT represents 1.8 million members, and this voice is seen as one of the most direct voices against the impact of crypto legislation in the US public sector. AFT Chairman Randi Weingarten pointed out in the letter that the proposal does not establish the regulatory protections needed to deal with the risks of crypto assets and stablecoins, but may expose pension portfolios that are not currently involved in crypto assets at all to market volatility and regulatory loopholes. She emphasized that once pension and 401(k) plans gain exposure to tokenized assets with inadequate regulation, it could pose a threat to the long-term financial security of retirees.

Michael Saylor recently proposed a financial reform plan for the Middle East at the Bitcoin MENA conference, with the core concept of creating a "zero-volatility, high-yield digital bank account" supported by Bitcoin to attract huge low-yield capital around the world. He pointed out that institutional funds in Japan, Europe, Switzerland and other regions have been trapped in a low-interest rate environment for a long time and lack significant returns, which is an opportunity for Bitcoin to become a new type of financial infrastructure. Rather than attracting funds from the crypto community, Saylor proposed a design goal to restructure the global sovereign bond and corporate bond markets of $20 trillion to $50 trillion. He emphasized that current investors are forced to choose high-risk credit products simply because traditional bank accounts cannot provide sufficient yields. The solution he proposed is for regulated banks to launch digital accounts with 8% yields, backed by Bitcoin, making them global capital hubs in the new era.

Former derivatives protocol Aevo co-founder Ken Chan's "exit manifesto" quickly swept the Asian crypto circle this week. He posted a long post on X saying that he had "wasted eight years" in the crypto industry and bluntly stated that "I am not building a new financial system, I am just building a casino." This remark has sparked widespread resonance and controversy in the Chinese and South Korean communities, with millions of views. Chan's post is not only a professional reflection but also a collapse of personal ideology. He claimed to have been influenced by libertarianism and was enamored with the revolutionary idea of Bitcoin "crossing the border with a billion dollars." However, eight years of industry experience completely disillusioned him. He criticized the Layer 1 capital war for "burning everyone's money", and projects such as Aptos, Sui, Sei, and ICP did not bring real financial innovation, but only "competed to become the next Solana". His conclusion is sharp: "We don't need to build a Mars casino. ”
