Monero (XMR) experienced a slight correction last weekend, with the price declining approximately 4.09%, pulling back from around $419. This correction began in the $418–$420 range, which has repeatedly served as a key resistance level over the past six weeks. Previously, the market widely expected XMR to test $420 or even $450 after re-confirming the $360 support level. Currently, the $420 target has been validated, but the upward momentum is clearly lacking. From a weekly chart perspective, Monero still maintains an overall bullish pattern. After dropping below $367 (the 50% Fibonacci retracement level), the price quickly stabilized and rebounded to around $419. Meanwhile, the RSI remains around 59, indicating that the medium-term momentum still favors bulls. However, the volume indicator OBV has issued a warning signal. Over the past 7 months, the OBV peaks have been steadily declining, forming a clear bearish divergence with the price, suggesting that the rally has not been supported by strong genuine demand. Such a structure is often difficult to sustain over the long term.

BlockBeats News, December 12 — BitMine Chairman Tom Lee recently stated that the Strategy company of Bitcoin encrypted treasury (DAT) establishing a $1.4 billion cash reserve is a "wise move." Although Strategy's stock price has fallen more than 50% over the past six months, this cash reserve will enable the company to continue paying shareholder dividends during Bitcoin price declines without selling its $61 billion Bitcoin holdings. Tom Lee pointed out that during the previous Bitcoin downturn cycle, Strategy's stock trading price was below its net asset value (NAV), and building a cash reserve was precisely to prepare for such situations. As the largest ETH treasury company holding over $12 billion worth of Ethereum, BitMine has not yet built

Odaily Planet Daily reported that the S&P 500 Index closed at a new all-time high again on Thursday. While this is not uncommon in 2025, it has been six weeks since the last record was broken. Ed Clissold, Chief US Strategist at Ned Davis Research, said, “Considering that US companies continue to deliver strong earnings reports, and the US economy has proven to be resilient, the current market sentiment is far from euphoric, which means there is still room for further gains by the end of the year and into early next year.” Noticing that investor enthusiasm is not only subdued at Ned Davis Research, even though the stock market is at an all-time high. Barclays’ “Stock Market Euphoria Indicator” has stabilized but remains well below its early October peak, indicating that the market still has “dry gunpowder” to drive potential year-end gains.

x402 Payment Protocol officially released version 2 on December 11, 2025, further strengthening its core position in AI-native payments and autonomous machine trading. Since launching six months ago, x402 has completed over 100 million transactions through API, AI agents, and Web services. The V2 version incorporates key upgrades accumulated during this period.

Odaily Planet Daily News: In November, the US NFIB Small Business Confidence Index rose to 99.0, up 0.8 points from October, with six out of ten sub-indices showing an increase, mainly driven by improved sales expectations. However, the Uncertainty Index rose by 3 points to 91, partially offsetting the optimism. Labor market conditions remain concerning, and the overall situation is still severe. About 33% of business owners reported job openings in November (previous value: 32%), marking the first increase since June and significantly higher than the historical average of 24%. There were positive signals in employment expectations, with about 19% of business owners planning to add employees in the next three months, up 4 percentage points from October and reaching the highest level of the year. Inflation remains a major concern in the November data, with the proportion of business owners raising average selling prices increasing from 21% in October to 34%.

Expectations are rising that Japan may conduct large-scale sell-offs of U.S. Treasuries, and this potential shock is spreading from traditional financial markets to the crypto industry, especially Tether (USDT), which is deeply tied to U.S. Treasuries. Japan currently holds $1.189 trillion in U.S. Treasuries, making it the largest foreign holder globally, but as Japanese government bond yields hit multi-year highs, the attractiveness of holding U.S. Treasuries is declining. Analysis indicates that the U.S.-Japan yield spread has narrowed from 3.5% to 2.4% within six months. If it drops to around 2%, it will significantly boost the incentive for capital to flow back to Japan, potentially prompting Japanese institutions to sell as much as $500 billion in U.S. Treasuries. The broader yen carry trade amounts to $1.2 trillion; if interest rates rise and the yen strengthens, this structure could quickly unravel, triggering a chain of global asset liquidations.

POP MART's stock price has recently plummeted by 8.49%, marking its largest six-week decline, as market concerns over its overseas sales performance intensify, especially due to disappointing Black Friday sales data.

Derivatives data shows a reduced risk appetite in the market, with cautious sentiment in the options market and investors more inclined to sell.

In recent years, Chinese crypto investors have long relied on USDT and other USD stablecoins to hedge against market volatility, but recent currency movements have prompted them to reassess risk. Over the past six months, the offshore RMB/USD rate has climbed from 7.4 to 7.06, the highest level in a year, meaning investors holding USD stablecoins have seen their asset value quietly shrink when calculated in RMB. For example, if you exchanged RMB 100,000 for USDT in April, you would now only get about RMB 95,400 if you exchanged it back, a loss of about 4.6%—without touching any volatile crypto assets. A weakening dollar and a strengthening yuan have created double pressure. This year, the US dollar index has fallen nearly 10%, with weak US employment data and Federal Reserve rate-cut policies triggering large-scale unwinding of arbitrage trades. At the same time, a rebound in the Shanghai stock market has attracted foreign capital, further supporting the yuan’s appreciation. RMB settlements between companies are also on the rise, and increased financial hedging demand has pushed RMB demand beyond just speculation. According to Goldman Sachs research, for every 1% appreciation in the RMB, Chinese stock market returns increase by about 3%, creating a self-reinforcing cycle.

After several consecutive months of decline, the pessimistic sentiment in the Bitcoin market may be approaching a turning point. Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan stated in a recent discussion with investors that Bitcoin is currently at the bottom range of a six-month adjustment period, with "limited downside left," and that the current selling pressure may be nearing its end. As of Thursday, the price of Bitcoin hovered around $92,000, down more than 25% from the highs above $120,000 reached in October. Despite the deep pullback, Bitwise still maintains its prediction that Bitcoin will break above $200,000 by the end of the year, though it acknowledges that its previous market expectations were "right in direction, but wrong in timing."

Bank of America economist Kudo predicts that the Bank of Japan will raise interest rates to 0.75% in December, and expects an additional rate hike every six months until June 2026. This expectation is based on changes in factors such as corporate earnings and wage negotiations.

Chainlink (LINK) experienced a significant market correction this Monday, dropping to as low as $11.74. However, the price quickly rebounded and, as of press time, has risen approximately 24% from the low, currently trading at $14.61. Although the short-term recovery has been strong, the technical structure and liquidity distribution indicate that LINK’s upside potential may be limited. Recently, LINK surged 15% within six days, reaching a high of $13.57, driven by ETF-related news and spot buying. However, the rapid reversal also revealed that its long-term trend remains weak. Although the daily chart turned bullish after breaking above $13.57, the overall trend has yet to fully reverse.

According to a report by Jinse Finance, the Institute for Supply Management (ISM) announced on Wednesday that the US services index rose slightly by 0.2 to a nine-month high of 52.6. A reading above 50 indicates the sector is in expansion. The ISM services and materials prices paid index showed the slowest growth rate in seven months. Although still at historically high levels, this figure suggests inflationary pressures have eased somewhat. The overall services index was supported by longer supplier delivery times and further improvement in business activity. The supplier deliveries index rose by 3.3 points, reaching its highest level in over a year. This increase may reflect challenges businesses face with tariffs as they seek product sources in a complex trade environment. The business activity index climbed to a three-month high of 54.5. Meanwhile, order growth slowed from a one-year high. Employment in the services sector showed further signs of stabilizing. The employment index rose to a six-month high of 48.9, indicating a slower pace of job declines. According to an ISM survey

Odaily News Gold prices fell on Tuesday from a more than six-month high, with Spot gold losing the $4200 per ounce mark during the day. This was partly due to the rise in U.S. Treasury yields and profit-taking that weighed on prices, while investors awaited U.S. economic data to assess the Fed's policy path. The Benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury yield remained near a two-week high, diminishing the appeal of non-yielding assets like gold. KCM Trade chief market analyst Tim Water noted: "Gold has performed weakly today, but the fundamentals remain unchanged— including the expected Fed rate cuts, which should support gold prices from a yield perspective." Market sentiment is cautious, with expectations that the core PCE price index, a favored inflation indicator by the Fed, will remain moderate when released on Friday. Additionally, key U.S. data this week includes the November ADP employment report on Wednesday. (Jin10)

ChainCatcher news, the Taiyuan City Wanbailin District Prosecutor's Office has recently successfully handled a case involving the use of Virtual Money to conceal and disguise criminal proceeds.

In May of this year, Ms. Zhang met "Lin Hao" (who is still at large) on a short video platform. "Lin Hao" falsely claimed that his comrade worked for a well-known company and had access to information about the company's stock rise and fall, stating that profits could be made by signing up for an account on the company’s internal website to "buy rise" (claiming a return of 5% per period). However, it required trading in US dollars and exchanging cash for US dollars with designated merchants, which would then be transferred to his comrade's US dollar account, and then transferred to the company's account. On May 21, Ms. Zhang, following "Lin Hao"'s instructions, brought 1.47 million yuan in cash to a hotel in Wanbailin District to prepare for the exchange of US dollars.

Bitcoin has risen for six consecutive days, and analysts predict that the overall market capitalization of Crypto Assets may rebound by 25%, returning to above $4 trillion. Industry expert Farzam Ehsani stated that this rise "is enough to push Bitcoin back above $100,000" and may bring double-digit increases for high beta altcoins. He also warned that it is still too early to assert a trend reversal; Bitcoin must stabilize at the $90,000 mark with increased retail participation to establish a new pump cycle.

Golden Finance reported that on November 27, Ark Invest stated that U.S. market liquidity finally began to rebound after hitting a multi-year low of $5.56 trillion on October 30. A six-week government shutdown caused a liquidity loss of $621 billion, but with the government reopening, $70 billion has already flowed back into the market. It is expected that over the next 5-6 weeks, with the normalization of the Treasury's general account, another $300 billion will flow back. The improvement in the liquidity environment coincides with the Fed's shift to a dovish stance. New York Fed President John Williams, California Governor Waller, and San Francisco Fed President Daly have all expressed support for interest rate cuts, raising the implied probability of an upcoming rate cut to about 90%. Ark Invest believes that as liquidity is restored, Quantitative Tightening (QT) will end on December 1 and monetary policy will shift to a supportive stance, indicating that the market is forming conditions.

BlockBeats news, on November 25, although Trump will not appear on the ballot for next November's midterm elections, he is fully committed with a do-or-die attitude because this election is crucial to his presidential term and political life. According to nine Republican strategists involved in the election, he is calling candidates, endorsing them early, formulating strategies, and pushing economic messages in an attempt to keep Congress in Republican hands. "Presidents usually start acting late in the campaign," said Bill Galston, a former senior advisor in the White House under Democratic President Bill Clinton, "Such engagement at this stage is extremely rare." Six Republican insiders told Reuters that Trump wants party candidates to use his tax cut plan as the campaign theme. The plan was introduced in July by the Republicans.

This five to six times disparity highlights the profound impact of interest-bearing products on the traditional market, while the returns of Crypto Assets mainly still rely on their appreciation. Max Sandy, the product head of Ramp Network, stated that this gap is not just a statistical anomaly, but a fundamental barrier to institutional adoption of Crypto Assets.

PANews, November 24, reported by Jin10, Barclays Research points out that there remains uncertainty regarding the Fed's interest rate decision next month, but Chairman Powell is likely to push the FOMC to make a rate cut decision. Based on recent speeches, Barclays believes that governors Mulan, Bowman, and Waller may support a rate cut, while regional Fed presidents Musalem and Schmidt tend to favor keeping interest rates unchanged. Governors Barr and Jefferson, as well as Goolsbee and Collins, have shown that their stance is still unclear but leans more towards maintaining the status quo. Governors Cook and Williams rely on data but seem to support a rate cut more. Barclays stated: "This means that before considering Powell's position, there may be six voters inclined to keep interest rates unchanged and five inclined to cut rates." The bank added that Powell will ultimately dominate this decision, as the threshold for governors to publicly oppose his stance is very high.

Odaily News As Powell's four-year term is set to end in May next year—just six months away—the search for the next Fed chair is in full swing, with five candidates currently vying for what could be the most significant position in the U.S. economy. Powell has endured months of relentless attacks from Trump. Trump has consistently called for a drop in interest rates and has tried to reshape the Fed into a subservient institution. This week, Trump reiterated his desire to fire Powell, stating he 'really wants to get rid of him.' The next Fed chair may need to arm themselves to resist Trump's scorched-earth policy approach—unless that person is Hassett. Hassett has already hinted that he would support Trump's desire for a massive rate cut. (Jin10)
