Turkmenistan officially legalized cryptocurrency mining and trading activities on New Year's Day, establishing a licensing system regulated by the central bank. The legislation classifies virtual assets under civil law but does not recognize cryptocurrencies as a means of payment. Turkmenistan has abundant natural gas resources, and surplus electricity provides a low-cost advantage for cryptocurrency mining.

U.S. President Donald Trump recently ordered the arrest of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, bringing to light the long-rumored "Bitcoin secret vault" of this South American country. Intelligence indicates that the Maduro regime has secretly operated for years to establish a "shadow reserve" of between 600,000 and 660,000 Bitcoins, valued at approximately $60 billion to $67 billion. This astonishing discovery not only elevates Venezuela to one of the top Bitcoin holders globally but also positions its holdings to rival giants like BlackRock and Strategy. The fate of this hidden treasure is bound to influence Bitcoin's supply and demand dynamics and market sentiment. According to sources cited in Whale Hunting, Venezuela's "national-level coin hoarding plan" began in 2018.

AI convenient and instant, but at what cost to our brains? By the end of 2025, generative AI tools like ChatGPT have become widely integrated into daily office routines, from data organization to content creation, almost everything is possible. However, more and more experts and researchers point out that the convenience of these tools may come at the expense of human curiosity, deep thinking, and long-term professional development. Product management educator George Nurijanian recently posted on X (Twitter) about a phenomenon he calls the "Extraction Problem." He believes that the quick answers provided by AI seem to satisfy people's thirst for knowledge, but in reality, they omit the processes of learning, thinking, and self-understanding. This could lead humans to gradually lose the "curiosity cycle" necessary for building expertise. From curiosity to laziness: AI

During a light holiday trading session, Bitcoin prices recorded an increase of approximately 2.6%. However, professional trading firm QCP Capital remains cautious, believing that this rally lacks decisive trading volume support. The sharp 50% drop in open interest after options expiration indicates that a large amount of capital is still on the sidelines. More importantly, options market makers have shifted to a "negative Gamma" position above $94,000, which sets the stage for a potential "Gamma squeeze" and could lead to a sharp acceleration in price after breaking through this key level. However, this potential volatility driven by derivatives structures requires genuine spot buying and sustained capital inflows to confirm. Currently, the market faces a structural contradiction between outflows of spot ETF funds and a quiet increase in retail leverage.

Due to traders reducing their bets on tech giants before the end of the year, the three major U.S. stock indices all declined, and gold and silver retreated from their historical highs. Bitcoin (BTC) briefly touched $90,406 in early trading yesterday before pulling back, currently oscillating around 87K. The market lacks further bullish catalysts, and with most investors exiting during the year-end long holiday, market sentiment has become more cautious. The three major U.S. stock indices all declined, with investors reducing holdings in tech stocks before the new year Investors sold some of this year's big winners in tech stocks, including NVIDIA, Tesla, and Oracle, as the New Year holiday approached, leading to light market trading. The S&P 500 has risen about 17% so far this year. Although its performance lags behind many other global indices, it still exceeded expectations of a sell-off triggered by tariffs. The market generally remains optimistic that, after three consecutive years of gains, the stock market will continue to strengthen into 2026. Despite many risks, such as artificial intelligence

Author: André Beganski, Decrypt Translation: Felix, PANews This year, with the US SEC adopting new regulatory approaches to cryptocurrency products, ETFs have opened multiple doors for the crypto market on Wall Street. Although asset management firms previously strived to launch products tracking the spot prices of Bitcoin and Ethereum, the regulatory environment began to change after Donald Trump was re-elected president in January. Many companies foresee potential market opportunities in 2025. Regarding Bitcoin, according to Farside Investors data, as of December 15, since the first launch in January 2024, spot Bitcoin ETFs have accumulated a net inflow of $57.7 billion, a 59% increase from $36.2 billion at the beginning of this year, but the funds

The Christmas bells of 2025 have already rung, but for cryptocurrency investors, it seems that the gifts in Santa's bag this year contain something different. In stark contrast to the traditional stock market (S&P 500), which has seen strong year-end gains and new highs, Bitcoin (BTC) showed noticeable weakness and divergence during the 2025 Christmas period. As the world's largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, Bitcoin closed at around $87,800 on Christmas Day 2025. Amid light trading volume and overall market caution, it only rose slightly by 0.75%. Bitcoin's price fluctuated within a narrow range of $85,000 to $90,000, reflecting low market volatility. Investors reduced risk before the end of the year, with spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs experiencing hundreds of millions of dollars in outflows in just one day on December 24.

Driven by escalating geopolitical tensions and a weakening US dollar, spot gold surged this week to break through $4,530 per ounce, while silver soared over 4% to surpass the $75 mark, both hitting new all-time highs. Meanwhile, Bitcoin remained below $89,000 amid light trading during the year-end holiday, failing to break through the critical resistance at $90,000. This stark contrast reveals the complex landscape of the current macro markets: traditional safe-haven assets are absorbing surging capital driven by geopolitical risks and rate cut expectations, while the cryptocurrency market has temporarily lost direction amid seasonal liquidity contraction. The divergence in trends between “traditional” and “digital” safe-haven assets provides a vivid case for investors to understand cross-market capital flows.

The USD-KRW exchange rate continues to rise in a light trading atmosphere on the eve of the year-end, closing above the 1480 KRW mark in the New York forex market for the first time since July of last year. As of 2:00 AM KST on December 23, the New York market's USD-KRW Exchange Rate rose by 4.70 KRW compared to the previous day's closing price in the Seoul forex market, closing at 1481.00 KRW. This is 0.90 KRW higher than the same day's closing price of 1480.10 KRW in the Seoul regular market, marking the highest closing price since April 9 of this year. Analysts believe that as trading volume tends to thin out entering the year-end holiday, buying pressure at the low point of the Exchange Rate has led to the upward momentum. Almost simultaneously, Japan's forex authorities intervened in the market, and the USD-JPY exchange rate fell below the 157 yen line, but further declines were limited. Despite Japan's verbal intervention (i.e., statements made without actual financial investment), the USD-JPY exchange rate did not decline rapidly, reflecting investor sentiment.

The KOSDAQ-listed company DHX has decided to proceed with a paid capital increase through a third-party allocation method to raise approximately 50 billion Korean Won. The funds raised from this capital increase are expected to be mainly used for working capital. On December 22, DHX announced through a notice that it will issue 7,621,951 new common shares at a price of 656 KRW per share, to be allocated to PRIDICOM Co., Ltd. Based on the total issuance scale, it will raise approximately 50 billion KRW in funds. Third-party paid capital increase refers to the method of issuing new shares to specific investors outside of existing shareholders, with the advantage of being able to raise funds quickly. However, since this method can lead to the dilution of existing shareholders' equity ratios, it typically requires approval from the board of directors and consent from major shareholders. In light of DHX's previous efforts to promote investments in new growth ventures and improve its financial structure, the market is paying attention to whether the funds raised this time can contribute to future endeavors.

Author: Zhixiong Pan When we talk about AI, the public discourse can easily be diverted by topics like "parameter scale," "ranking positions," or "which new model has outperformed whom." We cannot say that this noise is meaningless, but it often acts like a layer of froth, obscuring the more fundamental undercurrents beneath the surface: in today's technological landscape, a covert war over the distribution of AI rights is quietly unfolding. If you raise your perspective to the scale of civilizational infrastructure, you will find that artificial intelligence is simultaneously presenting two completely different yet intertwined forms. A "lighthouse" like a high-hanging coast, controlled by a few giants, pursuing the farthest illumination distance, representing the current cognitive limits that humans can reach. Another kind of "torch" that can be held in hand, it pursues portability, ownership, and replicability, representing the intelligent baseline that the public can access. Only by understanding these two types of light can we break free.

On December 22, BitLight (LIGHT) experienced a flash crash, with the price falling to $0.91, a 70% drop within 24 hours. According to on-chain monitoring, 6 hours before the flash crash, $6.4 million worth of LIGHT was transferred from a wallet that had previously received funds from the team wallet to a CEX. In just four hours, the total amount of LIGHT contracts liquidated across the network reached $7.64 million, ranking first in the entire network.

Well-known crypto research platform Bankless recently released its top ten forward-looking predictions for the cryptocurrency space in 2026, outlining a future landscape characterized by institutionalization, regulatory breakthroughs, and market maturity. Key predictions include: Bitcoin is expected to break free from the traditional four-year cycle and reach new all-time highs, with its volatility potentially even lower than that of tech giant Nvidia; institutional demand for spot ETFs will absorb over 100% of new Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana issuance; and the passage of the key US crypto legislation, the Clarity Act, could serve as a decisive catalyst for the price surges of Ethereum and Solana. These predictions not only point to a leap in asset prices but also vividly depict the opportunities, challenges, and narrative shifts that will accompany the integration of cryptocurrencies into the global mainstream financial system.

Written by: Xiao Bing | Deep Tide TechFlow In December, the precious metals market's star is not gold, but silver, which is the most dazzling light. Rising from $40 to $50, $55, $60, it has surged through one historic price level after another at an almost uncontrollable speed, leaving little room for the market to breathe. On December 12, spot silver briefly reached a historic high of $64.28 per ounce, then sharply plummeted again. Since the beginning of the year, silver has increased by nearly 110%, far surpassing gold's 60% gain. This appears to be an "extremely reasonable" rise, but it also makes it particularly dangerous. The Crisis Behind the Rise Why did silver rise? Because it looks worth it. According to mainstream institutions' explanations, all of this is reasonable. The Fed's renewed expectations of interest rate cuts have rekindled the precious metals rally, with recent employment and inflation data showing weakness, and the market is betting on

Author: Zhang Feng Recently, discussions about the regulation and development path of stablecoins have been heating up among China’s industry, policy, and academic circles. Wang Yongli, former Vice President of Bank of China, publicly stated that China should be wary of the risks posed by stablecoins, emphasizing that it is “not advisable to vigorously develop stablecoins pegged to fiat currency.” His views have attracted attention within the industry. In today’s rapidly evolving global digital currency landscape, understanding stablecoins solely from the perspective of risk prevention may cause us to miss a critical strategic window. In light of the recent inter-ministerial coordination meeting on virtual currencies involving thirteen ministries and the logic behind related policies, China’s approach to the stablecoin issue may require a more comprehensive, flexible, and forward-looking perspective. I. The Potential for Developing Non-USD Stablecoins: Focus on Ecosystem, China Still Has Advantages Wang Yongli believes that the stablecoin market is already dominated by USD stablecoins, leaving limited space for non-USD stablecoins. However, this assessment overlooks the “ecological” aspect of stablecoins.

According to TechFlow, on December 5, as reported by JIN10, a key inflation indicator released by the U.S. Department of Commerce on Friday showed that the inflation rate in September was lower than expected. This report, which was delayed due to a government shutdown, further signals a green light for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates. The core PCE price index, which excludes the more volatile food and energy prices, rose 0.2% month-over-month and 2.8% year-over-year. While the monthly figure met general expectations, the annual rate was 0.1 percentage points lower than anticipated. In addition, according to data from the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Economic Analysis, overall personal consumption expenditures increased by 0.3% month-over-month, and the annual inflation rate was also 2.8%. Both figures were in line with expectations. Federal Reserve officials use the PCE price index as a primary policy tool for measuring inflation. Although officials consider both the overall and core data, they generally regard the core data as a better indicator for measuring long-term inflation trends. This report was delayed due to the government shutdown.
