$158 billion scale is staggering! TRM Labs reveals new crypto crime strategies for 2025
On January 29, news, blockchain intelligence company TRM Labs released a new report stating that although the proportion of illegal activities in on-chain transactions continues to decline, the scale of cryptocurrency crimes measured in USD still rose to a record high in 2025, expected to reach $158 billion, a 145% increase from $64.5 billion the previous year.
Data shows that illegal transactions accounted for only 1.2% of the total on-chain transaction volume that year, down from 1.3% in 2024, and well below the peak of 2.4% in 2023. An independent forecast by Chainalysis also indicates that the relevant scale in 2025 is approximately $154 billion, accounting for less than 1%. This suggests that while the digital asset ecosystem is expanding, the proportion of illegal funds is being diluted.

After ETH drops below $3000, bears increase their positions: Will Ethereum's price in February dip to $2250?
January 29 News, Ethereum (ETH) once again fell below the $3000 mark, with the current price hovering around $2940, down more than 14% from the previous peak of approximately $3400. Technical analysis shows that sellers have built a strong resistance zone above $3000, and the price still faces downside risks in the short term.
This round of correction occurs against the backdrop of intertwined macro and geopolitical factors. The Federal Reserve kept interest rates unchanged at this year's first policy meeting, while tensions in the Middle East have boosted risk aversion sentiment, putting pressure on risk assets. ETH subsequently broke below a key support level and officially confirmed a downward breakout from the symmetrical triangle pattern.

2025 Listed Tokens "Collective Bleeding": Is Buying and Holding Still Reliable in the Crypto Market?
On January 29, news reports indicate that the year 2025 will see the largest new token issuance wave in the history of the crypto market, but the returns have disappointed investors. Multiple statistics show that most newly listed tokens struggle to maintain positive returns within a year, casting unprecedented doubt on the effectiveness of the traditional crypto investment strategy of “buy and hold.”
Data agency CryptoRank summarized that in 2025, tokens launched on different platforms have mostly experienced declines rather than gains. A leading platform launched 100 tokens within a year, of which 93 saw their prices fall, with a median investment return of only 0.22x; another similar platform launched 150 tokens, with 127 declining, and a median return of 0.23x; while a platform known for frequent listings launched nearly 900 tokens, but most also recorded losses. Even among relatively stable platforms, more than half of the new tokens failed to escape retracement. This indicates that token performance is more influenced by the overall market environment rather than by individual platform factors.

U.S. Cryptocurrency Regulation Faces New Turmoil: Senator Questions DOJ Official's Cryptocurrency Holdings and Enforcement, Possible Conflict of Interest
January 29 News, controversy has once again erupted within the U.S. Congress over cryptocurrency regulation. Six senators recently co-signed a letter to Deputy Attorney General Todd W. Blanche, questioning potential undisclosed conflicts of interest related to his efforts to reduce enforcement of U.S. digital assets.
The signatory senators include Elizabeth Warren, Mazie K. Hirono, Richard J. Durbin, Sheldon Whitehouse, Christopher A. Coons, and Richard Blumenthal. The letter states that Blanche, when issuing a memorandum titled "Ending Enforcement Through Prosecution" in April 2025, still held approximately $158,000 to $470,000 worth of crypto assets, mainly Bitcoin and Ethereum. The memorandum called for prosecutors to avoid taking action against platforms themselves and to focus enforcement on individuals using cryptocurrencies for criminal activities.

Pi Coin Price Prediction 2026: Approaching Historic Lows, Will There Be a Rebound in February?
On January 29, news reports indicate that Pi Coin's price has recently continued to weaken, constantly declining amid a bearish market sentiment, and the current trend has approached a potential historical low. Multiple on-chain and technical indicators show that selling pressure still dominates, making it difficult to see any clear signs of stabilization in the short term.
In terms of capital flow, Pi Coin holders have recently accelerated their withdrawal pace. The Chaikin Money Flow indicator has fallen below zero and touched a six-week low, reflecting that outflows in the network are significantly higher than inflows. Meanwhile, the Money Flow Index has remained in negative territory for an extended period, and the volume-weighted sell-side advantage limits the space for price rebounds. Historical performance also suggests that when these types of indicators remain weak, Pi Coin often struggles to form an effective reversal.

White House pushed back with $193 million to the negotiation table: The real game behind the stalemate of the stablecoin bill
January 29 News, cryptocurrency political funding is profoundly influencing the direction of U.S. policy. With less than a year until the midterm elections, the crypto industry has accumulated approximately $193 million in political funds. This force is pushing the White House to re-engage in digital asset legislation negotiations, with stablecoin regulation and crypto market structure becoming core focus areas.
The Cryptocurrency Political Action Committee Fairshake stated that its funding has nearly reached the total amount of the previous election cycle. Ripple, a16z, and the largest compliant CEX in the U.S. have all provided substantial support. The organization will continue to support candidates who favor the crypto industry and pressure opponents. Although funds have not yet been fully deployed, political influence is already evident.

Is XRP driven by regulatory benefits or infrastructure development? Community debates the utility direction, with XRPL permissioned domain becoming a key variable
January 29 News, regarding whether the true utility of XRP is driven by "regulatory push" or "infrastructure evolution," the XRP Ledger (XRPL) community is engaging in a high-intensity discussion. The clash of different viewpoints is shifting the focus from price to practical implementation paths and regulatory feasibility.
According to reports, community member Alex Cobb believes that U.S. market structure legislation, especially the CLARITY Act, could open up greater opportunities for compliant use of XRP and serve as a significant external driver for expanding applications. In his view, policy certainty will enhance institutional participation and provide more stable regulatory expectations for on-chain assets.

Institutions: Real interest rates remain high, which may provide a basis for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates recently
Odaily Planet Daily reported that Scott Helfstein, Head of Investment Strategy at Global X, pointed out in a report that real interest rates may still be too high, which could prompt the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates again soon. "This leads us to believe that the Federal Reserve may remain more dovish than the market expects and could cut rates again as early as the first quarter," he said. Helfstein believes that the current market is likely driven by fundamentals, and the performance of the current earnings season has met higher expectations so far, with many companies reaffirming their guidance.

Waller opposes maintaining interest rates unchanged, consolidating the Federal Reserve Chair competition
ChainCatcher News, according to Jinshi reports, Principal Asset Management Global Chief Strategist Hima Shaa stated that Federal Reserve Board Member Waller cast a dissenting vote against the Fed's decision to keep interest rates unchanged, solidifying his position as a contender for the Fed Chair. Shaa pointed out that over time, Waller's argument that policy needs to be closer to a neutral stance may gain more support, especially as signs of a cooling labor market become more conclusive and the downward trend in inflation continues.

Trump and Schumer unexpectedly reach a funding consensus! The risk of a US government shutdown drops sharply, and Polymarket data significantly declines.
On January 29, news reports indicate that the likelihood of a government shutdown in the United States has significantly decreased over the past 24 hours. The latest forecasts show that market concerns about a government shutdown have rapidly cooled, with the related probability dropping sharply from the previous high of nearly 80%. Meanwhile, positive signals have been exchanged between Trump and Senate Democratic Leader Schumer regarding key funding issues, suggesting a potential easing of the tense political deadlock.
According to multiple sources, both sides have engaged in substantive negotiations to prevent an indefinite government closure. One of the core proposals is to separate the Department of Homeland Security's funding from the other six federal appropriations bills, in order to provide ongoing funding for medical programs and other federal agencies for the remainder of this fiscal year. If the relevant bill can be passed before the Friday midnight deadline, it will help prevent the US government from falling into a full shutdown again.
