According to the recent market research report released by Jay Yu, a researcher at Pantera Capital, the cryptocurrency ecosystem in 2026 will see several noteworthy developments.
In the lending sector, capital-efficient consumer credit is expected to become a new growth point for crypto finance. This means that DeFi protocols and lending platforms may further improve user experience and lower entry barriers.
Meanwhile, proxy business solutions based on endpoint technologies like x402 are also expanding boundaries. These business tools are expected not only to deepen in trading but also to grad

Here we go again. This Ethereum whale has made another large move in just three days—1 hour ago, they withdrew 5,500 ETH from a major exchange, worth approximately $16.09 million.
Since December 5th, this whale has withdrawn a total of over 34,415 ETH from exchanges, with a total value exceeding $107 million. Based on an average cost of $3,131.11, this individual is currently showing an unrealized loss of $7.162 million.
What is the mindset behind this series of actions? Faith? Or self-rescue at a low point? Data shows that continuous withdrawals indicate that the whale is not pessimistic abou

If the market dumps again, I'm going all-in—literally. We're talking everything: the villa, both cars, organs on the black market if I have to. Call it reckless, call it conviction, but Bitcoin's fundamentals haven't changed. Some of us just refuse to sell at a loss. That's the conviction bet right there.

The bear market is here, and saving money isn't just about protecting funds; transaction fees also need to be carefully calculated💰
Recently, I switched my main trading tool to a certain leading wallet, and I've gained a lot from the trial. The fees can indeed be saved—compared to other mainstream platforms on the market, this one has significantly lower rates, and a rough estimate shows savings of over 50%. For high-frequency traders or those handling large amounts, this fee saving is quite substantial.
The experience on the SOL chain is even more worth mentioning. Recently, they optimized p

Spotted on BASE: $WETH is showing some interesting on-chain metrics worth tracking. The token at 0x4200000000000000000000000000000000000006 (BASE) is currently running with a market cap sitting at $619M, but here's the catch—24-hour trading volume on both sides is basically flatlined at zero, while liquidity is thin at just $5. This kind of setup typically signals either early-stage positioning or potential illiquidity concerns. Contract address for reference: 0x30F8554D71F72C75477B3626975D794E27BFD311 on BASE. Worth keeping an eye on this one if you're monitoring emerging tokens on the chain.

Just spotted an interesting token movement on the Solana ecosystem. Supermoo, currently trading on Solana's blockchain, is showing some noteworthy trading activity.
Looking at the 24-hour metrics: buy volume sits at $28,895 while sell volume comes in at $23,120. The token maintains a liquidity pool of $32,146, with a market cap standing at $120,917.
What catches attention here is the volume imbalance—more buying pressure than selling over the past day, which some traders might see as bullish momentum for this Solana-based project. The liquidity level relative to market cap is worth monitoring

Just caught sight of an interesting memecoin entry hitting the radar – $AC has some solid chart setups worth looking at. Broke down the analysis in detail across a few timeframes.
Meme trading's been heating up lately, and there's definitely a learning curve if you want to play it right. The volatility on these tokens can be wild, but that's also where the edge comes from if you know what you're doing. Spent some time putting together resources on how to approach memecoin trading with actual strategy rather than pure gambling.
Curious to see where this one develops. Anyone else tracking simila

Japan's central bank leadership is expressing confidence about reaching its price stability goals and hinting at more aggressive monetary tightening ahead. The BOJ chief's recent comments suggest the bank sees tangible progress on inflation targets, which typically signals a hawkish stance on future rate decisions.
For crypto markets and macro traders, this matters. Aggressive rate hikes from major central banks reshape global liquidity conditions and asset allocation flows. When central banks tighten, capital tends to rotate between risk assets, affecting both traditional markets and digital

This situation is a bit tense. The price of $usdt surprisingly dropped to 6.9, making my side also a sea of red—$btc falling, $bnb falling, $aster falling, even the theoretically most stable stablecoins are heading down. The era of making money while lying down is obviously over. The current rules of the game are clear: only those who can consistently generate cash flow and realize profits in a timely manner are true winners. The market has taught us one thing: no matter how good your vision is, speed is more important.

A noteworthy data point has surfaced—Evernorth Holdings, the funding entity backed by Ripple executives, holds 389 million XRP, which was acquired at a cost of $947 million.
It sounds like a significant investment, but the current situation is a bit awkward. Based on the current XRP price of $1.86, the market value of this holding is just over $724 million. In other words, it has already incurred a loss of more than $220 million on paper.
Such a large-scale holding movement naturally attracts market attention. The data behind this reflects a certain stance by institutional players on XRP's lon

Recently, there has been a noticeable capital outflow from Bitcoin spot ETFs. On December 24th, Eastern Time, the entire Bitcoin spot ETF sector experienced a net outflow of $175 million in a single day, as institutional investors seem to be taking profits ahead of Christmas.
Looking at specific products, the IBIT ETF under BlackRock became the largest net outflow, with a daily net outflow of $91.37 million, accounting for nearly half of the total outflow. However, in the long term, the IBIT ETF has a total net inflow of $62.249 billion since its launch, indicating that this ETF still enjoys o

The crypto market has shown a unique pulse during the holiday season. On the surface, infrastructure continues to thrive, but extreme panic on the sentiment side is pulling at the nerves of the entire market. This "cold outside, hot inside" deleveraging process has now reached a critical tipping point.
The latest sentiment index hovers between 20-24, indicating extreme panic. Market participants are generally feeling the pressure, with a strong bearish sentiment. More importantly, tomorrow (December 26) will mark a key moment—the market will face a liquidity test of 28.5 billion. This figure i

The wave of asset tokenization is accelerating. What does this mean for the public chain ecosystem? A partner at Dragonfly recently shared his views — Solana and Ethereum are not in zero-sum competition; instead, they will both benefit from this wave. He used an interesting analogy: they are like two different social platforms, each occupying a different position in the ecosystem.
The current landscape is as follows: Ethereum mainly supports stablecoins and core economic activities, accumulating the heaviest assets and transaction base; while Solana, with its high transaction efficiency, has f

Holding U doesn't feel so appealing anymore🥲
Recently, the Renminbi has been quite active. On December 25th, the onshore RMB against the US dollar directly broke through the 7.01 mark, reaching a new high since September 27th. The market changes are also quite noticeable—USDT off-exchange price dropped to around 6.92 yuan, while the USD exchange rate was still at 7.0144 yuan. Comparing the two, the USDT premium rate has actually fallen to -1.35%, turning from a positive premium to a negative premium.
What does this mean? Previously, U was often at a premium, but now it's trading at a discount

During the Christmas holiday, the movements of on-chain whales always reveal subtle market changes. According to on-chain address monitoring data, most top whales remained relatively calm during this holiday, but the actions of a few key participants are still worth paying attention to.
The whale known as "BTC OG Insider Player" has been mostly on the sidelines over the past week, holding positions that are currently floating at a loss of over $40 million, with no new buy or sell actions for now. In contrast, another whale known as "CZ Opponent" has been more active — this whale has been conti

The macro landscape is quite interesting—US stocks, gold, and silver continue to hit new highs, and the festive atmosphere is spreading across the entire market. But when looking at the crypto space, the mood has cooled significantly, with Bitcoin deep in extreme panic territory, and market sentiment clearly fading.
There has been significant activity on the industry front. NVIDIA continues to pour money into expanding its AI chip footprint, even making a major acquisition of Groq. Tech giants' appetite for computing power shows no signs of waning. At the same time, news has emerged that crypt

Just spotted something interesting on Solana: $OGPUMP showing up with a few red flags worth noting. The 24-hour numbers tell part of the story—buy volume hitting $34,143 while sell volume sits at $30,614, which is a relatively tight spread. Liquidity's basically nonexistent at $0, and the market cap is sitting around $12,690.
This kind of profile (low liquidity, minimal market cap, heavy promotional activity indicators) is exactly what you see when projects are running paid marketing campaigns across scanner platforms. Not necessarily a rug, but definitely the type worth monitoring closely bef
