XRP continues to trade in a constricted range below the critical \$2.00 psychological level as 2026 unfolds, presenting a complex puzzle for investors. Despite the lack of bullish price momentum, on-chain data reveals a compelling narrative of silent accumulation by high-net-worth entities, with 42 new 'millionaire wallets' appearing since January. This institutional interest, coupled with thinning exchange reserves, sets a potential stage for a supply-driven rally. However, the technica

The U.S. Senate Agriculture Committee advanced the Cryptocurrency Market Structure Act on January 29 with a vote of 12 to 11. Despite unanimous opposition from the Democratic Party, the bill has moved to the next stage. However, the next challenge lies with the Senate Banking Committee, which has concerns about the bill's content, particularly the issue of "stablecoin interest earning." The White House plans to convene a meeting to try to promote bipartisan cooperation, but the bill will still need to go through multiple review processes before becoming law.

El Salvador continues to make bold moves on the global financial stage, with its central bank purchasing \$50 million in gold and its government persistently adding to its Bitcoin treasury. This dual strategy has pushed the nation's gold reserves above \$360 million and its Bitcoin holdings to 7,547 BTC, valued at approximately \$635 million. These actions unfold against a tense backdrop of negotiations with the International Monetary Fund (IMF), which has pressured the country to cease

Author: Zen, PANews After much back and forth, Trump's nominee for Federal Reserve Chair is expected to be officially announced in about a week. This dramatic "selection process" took a surprising turn as it reached the final stage. "The Federal Reserve must lower interest rates to 3% to be closer to equilibrium," said BlackRock Chief Fixed Income Investment Officer Rick Rieder in an interview with CNBC on January 13. "Only then can we consider the current situation." Rieder's remarks also officially signaled the start of a dark horse's charge. On that day, his probability of winning in prediction markets like Polymarket doubled from 3% to 6%; after Trump praised him highly at the Davos Forum, Rieder's win probability soared to 60%. As of January 29, Rieder and former

Author: Nancy, PANews There are so many good assets in the world, Bitcoin is no longer as sexy. When gold broke through $5,000 to reach a historic high, Bitcoin was in a deep sleep. A "debate" about Bitcoin is fermenting within the cryptocurrency community, and people can't help but ask, "Can the story of 'digital gold' continue?" Recently, crypto KOL @BTCdayu shared the perspective of a Bitcoin OG who has sold over 80% of their Bitcoin holdings, openly stating that Bitcoin is facing a fundamental shift in its narrative layer. This viewpoint quickly sparked heated discussions within the community. New traders, new pricing logic In the first half, Bitcoin was the golden age of recognition realization, with the stage mainly belonging to a few early accumulators and infrastructure builders. But in the second half, the game rules have fundamentally changed. With the approval of Bitcoin spot ETFs, Strate

Cryptocurrency Asset Panorama BTC (+0.29% | Current price $89,781.7) After a rapid decline earlier, BTC formed a clear stage low around $87,256, followed by a quick rebound back above $89,000. Currently, the price remains in a range of $89,300–$89,900, consolidating with sideways movement. Overall, panic selling pressure has been largely released during the previous decline, and the market has entered a phase of recovery and digestion through sideways consolidation. The short-term trend has shifted from weak to neutral and slightly stable. From a technical perspective, short-term moving averages are gradually flattening, with MA5 and MA10 beginning to approach the price, while MA30 remains slightly downward, exerting some resistance above, indicating that the current structure is still in a consolidation and bottoming phase. Previously, the rebound from around $87,000 was accompanied by significant volume, indicating strong activity in that region.

In the world of technology, whether an idea has truly entered the mainstream is often not marked by it taking the stage at an Apple keynote, but by it being quietly written into the personal profile of a legendary builder. When Isaac Schlueter, co-founder of Node.js and npm, added his Bitcoin address to his GitHub profile and sponsorship dashboard, a silent but watershed moment was thus set. This architect, who laid the foundation for modular collaboration on the internet, described his feelings in a tweet as “Really amazing, although I still find it a bit hard to fully understand”—a phrase that precisely captures the complex state of rational admiration and cognitive dissonance faced by classical internet elites when encountering the crypto world. This is no longer just a simple addition of a payment option, but a soul-level code submission: the builders of traditional internet infrastructure are now embracing the crypto network as a system of technological belief.

Written by: imToken Looking back at the just-passed year 2025, if you feel that on-chain scams are becoming increasingly "understanding you," it's not an illusion. With the widespread adoption of LLMs, social engineering attacks initiated by hackers have evolved from bulky mass emails to "precise targeting": AI can analyze your on-chain/off-chain preferences and automatically generate highly tempting customized phishing content, even perfectly mimicking your friends' tone and logic in social channels like Telegram. It can be said that on-chain attacks are entering a truly industrialized stage. In this context, if our shields still remain in the "manual era," security itself will undoubtedly become the biggest bottleneck for large-scale adoption of Web3. 1.
