Recent developments in the crypto market include multiple policy and fundamental positive signals. On the US economic data front, December CPI growth remained stable, with core CPI slightly below expectations. The Federal Reserve's spokesperson indicated that the short-term wait-and-see stance remains unchanged. Meanwhile, international situations are also evolving, with the EU discussing additional sanctions on Iran, and the Trump administration announcing the cancellation of all meetings with Iranian officials.

The most notable breakthrough is in crypto policy. Although the US Clarity Act was delayed by a week, the Senate Agriculture Committee plans to release the bill text on January 21, with a key hearing scheduled for January 27. More significantly, the US has lifted a nine-year ban on corporate crypto investments, allowing listed companies to allocate up to 5% of their equity to the top 20 crypto assets. This policy adjustment is expected to attract substantial institutional capital, significantly improve liquidity in the local market, and potentially revive the Korean won premium, which could accelerate adoption in Asian markets.

In project financing, Zama will conduct an auction on a major mainstream financing platform from January 21 to 24, with an initial valuation (FDV) starting at $50 million. All tokens will be unlocked by February 2. Additionally, Safe Foundation announced a strategic partnership with a stablecoin project, which will significantly reduce or even eliminate Gas fees for transactions on the Ethereum mainnet. Assets stored in the Safe multi-signature wallet can also earn additional yield incentives.

Caution is advised regarding a former New York City mayor suspected of conducting a rug pull through a meme coin project. The token surged then quickly fell back, sparking widespread community skepticism. This serves as a reminder for investors to exercise caution when evaluating emerging projects.
