An important step that changes the structure of Polygon Labs' activities involves a 30% reduction in staff, according to BeInCrypto. This event, taking place at the company's global headquarters without an official public statement, has become the second major personnel cut in recent years and indicates a deep strategic reorientation towards the Open Money Stack initiative. As a result, the blockchain industry is now closely analyzing the implications of this consolidation for one of the leading Ethereum scaling solutions.

Ethereum is showing a carefully developing trend in early 2026 that warrants close attention from traders, investors, and market observers. After a period of consolidation near $3,100, ETH is beginning to demonstrate measured bullish momentum, driven by both on-chain activity and institutional participation. Unlike previous cycles, Ethereum is increasingly following its own trajectory rather than moving strictly in tandem with Bitcoin, signaling a more independent market structure.

#JapanBondMarketSell-Off
As of January 23, 2026, global financial markets are still digesting a historic Japanese government bond (JGB) shock that reverberated across equities, currencies, safe havens, and cryptocurrencies. What started as a domestic political move in Tokyo quickly became a macro contagion event, testing risk assets worldwide. For Bitcoin (BTC) and other crypto, this episode compounded existing volatility from Trump’s Greenland tariff drama (#TariffTensionsHitCryptoMarket), creating a “double macro whiplash” for risk-on markets.

#OP is trading within an ascending channel on the 4H timeframe, keeping the short-term structure bullish.
Price has pulled back to the lower channel support around the $0.30 area, where buyers have stepped in previously.
As long as this support holds, a bounce toward the mid-channel and upper resistance near $0.34–$0.36 is likely.
A breakdown below the channel support would invalidate the bullish setup and open the door for deeper downside.#GoldandSilverHitNewHighs #TrumpWithdrawsEUTariffThreats

I previously said gold would run to $10,000, which sounded outrageous, but the logic is much more reliable than many people claiming which coin will take off. This time, it's really not just hype.
Brothers, gold rose 60% last year and is still soaring in 2026.
Goldman Sachs, investment banks, and economists are already calling for $6,000, $7,000, and even roaring for $10,000.
It sounds like the air talk from crypto whales, but let’s analyze the logic carefully—there’s actually something increasingly verifiable this time, not just pure speculation bubbles.
Here are the three most solid unde

After more than a year of investing, I have recently developed a clearer investment philosophy, which is the "Barbell Strategy." I plan to divide my funds into two parts:
1. The extremely conservative end:
This portion of the funds is allocated to very stable and conservative investments, such as long-term U.S. Treasury bonds or fixed bank deposits. The goal is to ensure that regardless of what happens, your basic living standards are not affected.
2. The extremely aggressive end:
The other part of the funds is invested in high-tech super-trend assets. For this aggressive portion, a maxi

$ETH Price decline accompanied by high open interest presents a typical long liquidation and clearing pattern, rather than a main force distribution. This is a healthy reset in an upward trend.
