The Trump administration is accelerating the replacement of Federal Reserve leadership, with Treasury Secretary Bessant responsible for candidate screening, potentially pushing for interest rate cuts and policy adjustments. The new chair is expected to coordinate more closely with the Treasury Department, which may gain greater power and influence financial market liquidity.

American law firm Burwick Law plans to file a lawsuit against Believe and founder Ben Pasternak, and affected investors can register.

【Crypto World】Renowned crypto market analyst Tom Lee recently shared his views on the trend of major asset classes. He believes that gold will break out first, followed by a more aggressive rise in Bitcoin. The underlying logic behind this view is interesting — when traditional safe-haven assets like gold strengthen, it often indicates an increase in market risk appetite. Once risk appetite rebounds, high-volatility assets like Bitcoin typically gain stronger upward momentum. This seesaw effect between assets has indeed appeared multiple times in historical trends and is worth investors paying close attention to when formulating strategies.

The Italian Competition Authority has halted Meta's restrictions on WhatsApp, prohibiting companies from accessing third-party AI chatbots, citing that this move could constitute market abuse and harm competition. The European Commission is also investigating this matter, indicating that regulatory authorities are increasingly paying attention to large platforms' anti-competitive behaviors.

Since 2025, silver has increased by over 100%, and the market is generally optimistic about future trends, with analysts predicting it may hit $200. Capital flows into safe-haven assets, reflecting expectations of fiat currency devaluation, and hard assets have become an important hedging tool.

Recently, an address linked to a historic hacking case transferred 1,300 BTC to a trading platform within seven days, worth approximately $114 million, and the address still holds 4,100 BTC, totaling $360 million. This movement has attracted significant market attention, with speculation whether it is a new strategy or a liquidation.

【Blockchain Rhythm】Recently, there has been a piece of news that has attracted a lot of attention. A major Korean exchange announced that AI16Z has been listed on the trading warning list. The reason behind this is quite straightforward—the project team has been playing Tai Chi with the disclosure of important information, delaying the clarification of various issues that should be explained promptly, with insufficient transparency and questionable rationality.
For traders, the impact is that the deposit function for AI16Z has now been suspended. What will happen next? Will they extend the trading notice period, lift the restrictions directly, or completely terminate trading support—these decisions are still undecided. According to the forecast, these decisions will not be finalized until the second week of January.
This matter is also worth paying attention to because it reflects the increasing strictness of exchanges' requirements for project transparency. Although it is just a warning, it could have a tangible impact on the token's value and liquidity.

Drift Foundation proposed the DIP-9 proposal, hoping to allocate $1.5 million from monthly revenue to support the development and necessary expenses of Drift Labs, and to pre-fund $9 million to cover costs for the first half of 2026.

The beta version of Stakehouse is online, developed by Overtake Labs, aiming to integrate staking, trading, and referral functions to provide a unified experience for TAKE ecosystem participants.

[Block Rhythm] has made another big move! Trump Media's wallet just transferred 2,000 BTC 8 hours ago, and this transaction size is indeed significant — equivalent to $174.76 million. Such large transfers always attract market attention and provide plenty of discussion topics for on-chain data enthusiasts. The key question is what the intention behind this transfer is — whether it's for liquidity adjustment or other considerations — all of which are worth tracking and observing.

[Coin World] BCH has been range-bound between $272 and $624 since July. Although it has risen 22.2% since mid-November, it has been stuck at the $624 hurdle. Strangely, the continuous influx of buy orders indicates that long-term funds remain optimistic, yet spot is being continuously dumped, and open contracts have shrunk by nearly 20%—this comparison clearly highlights the issue, as the confidence of short-term participants is clearly wavering.
The key point is: if there is no confirmed breakout, don't easily chase higher above $600. On the flip side, once the price stands above $605, the current short-term bearish pattern will be broken. This position is neither too big nor too small, but it is enough to become a watershed that changes the rhythm.

The derivation market for Cardano shows clear bullish signals, with long positions reaching as high as 69%. The launch of the new Token NIGHT has attracted significant follow, with its market capitalization reaching 1.25 billion USD and boosting trading activity. Despite the fall in ADA prices, traders remain optimistic about a reversal, believing that the bottom is near, and NIGHT's weekly rise of 39% further enhances market confidence.

Recently, a listed company submitted a temporary suspension of registration application to the SEC, intending to raise up to $1 billion. How will this money be spent? In addition to daily operations and making some acquisitions, the focus is on using it for Solana asset management.
Specifically, their strategy involves significant acquisition, holding, and staking of SOL tokens. This is not just short-term speculation, but rather incorporating SOL as part of the long-term asset allocation on the company's balance sheet. This move has placed them in a relatively niche but interesting club—those publicly traded companies that consider digital assets as a core strategy.
From a market perspective, this reflects a significant increase in the recognition of the Solana ecosystem by traditional financial institutions. When big money starts to enter the market and holds positions for the long term, it does provide some support for the development expectations of the SOL ecosystem.

Last year's Web3 security statistics showed that 248 phishing incidents caused losses exceeding 700 million dollars. Hackers used AI tools to generate phishing pages that are identical to real websites, and their attack methods are becoming increasingly precise. Traditional defense measures have failed, and users and project parties need to remain vigilant, strengthen security awareness, and provide risk warnings. The future situation is severe.

[Coin World] Large institutional holdings have taken a new turn. The Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan, a healthcare pension fund in Canada with a scale of up to $90 billion, recently made a move by purchasing 14.8 million shares of the Bitcoin treasury concept stock Strive, spending $13 million.
What does this investment indicate? Conservative institutional finance, such as pension funds, is quietly positioning itself in Bitcoin-related assets, reflecting a gradual shift in the traditional financial sector's attitude towards the crypto ecosystem. This transition from mere observation to real investment has significant implications for the long-term trends of the market.
Especially against the backdrop of changes in the global macro environment, more and more large funds are beginning to include non-traditional assets like Bitcoin in their diversified asset allocations. Such large institutional movements are often a barometer of market sentiment.
