#2026CryptoFlag
The beginning of 2026 marks a new phase of clarity, responsibility, and long term vision in my crypto journey. My crypto flag for this year is focused on steady growth, informed decision making, and continuous improvement rather than short term reactions.
In 2026, my main objective is to strengthen my portfolio through structured planning and disciplined execution. I aim to focus on quality assets, maintain proper risk control, and approach market movements with patience and consistency. Developing emotional stability and avoiding impulsive decisions will remain a top priority.
This year is also dedicated to expanding my knowledge of market behavior, blockchain fundamentals, and trading structure. By improving analytical skills and staying engaged with reliable information, I plan to make more confident and well reasoned decisions over time.
Community involvement is an essential part of my #2026CryptoFlag. On Gate Square, I intend to actively participate in discussions, share thoughtful insights, and contribute positively by exchanging experiences with other users. Collective learning creates stronger individual growth.
2026 is about building value with purpose, learning through experience, and moving forward with discipline and clarity #Gate2025AnnualReport

The journey continues. 🚀 #MacroWatchFedChairPick – 2026 Outlook
As Jerome Powell’s term as Federal Reserve Chair nears its conclusion in May 2026, the question of succession has emerged as one of the most critical macroeconomic considerations for markets, policymakers, and investors alike. With inflation remaining uneven across sectors, growth indicators showing early signs of softening, and financial markets continuing to exhibit high sensitivity to shifts in monetary policy, the selection of the next Fed Chair will carry significant implications for both the U.S. economy and global financial markets.
President Trump is expected to announce his nominee early this year, and a variety of candidates are under discussion, each representing distinct philosophies toward monetary policy and economic management. Among the front-runners:
Christopher Waller, a current Federal Reserve governor, is widely seen as a pragmatic, data-driven policymaker. He favors measured rate cuts when economic conditions soften, but remains ready to tighten policy decisively if inflation pressures re-emerge. Waller’s track record demonstrates a disciplined approach to balancing growth and inflation, which could provide markets with predictability and stability.
Kevin Hassett, a former White House economic adviser, is recognized for his dovish, growth-oriented approach. Hassett has consistently advocated for aggressive rate cuts as a means to stimulate economic activity, potentially delivering a short-term boost to equities, risk assets, and crypto markets. However, such an approach carries notable risks, particularly if inflation remains elevated, which could unsettle bond markets, raise long-term yields, and ultimately heighten volatility after an initial surge of optimism.
Kevin Warsh, a former Fed governor with a historically hawkish reputation, presents a more nuanced scenario. While known for prioritizing inflation control, Warsh may adopt a flexible stance in the current environment if growth concerns intensify. Markets could respond positively to his institutional credibility and disciplined focus on inflation expectations, but any unexpected hawkish shift could provoke drawdowns in equities and risk assets until clarity is restored.
Other candidates, such as Michelle Bowman and James Bullard, bring their own combinations of hawkish and dovish tendencies, offering alternative policy trajectories that could influence market expectations in subtle but meaningful ways.
From a macroeconomic standpoint, Christopher Waller appears best positioned to manage the current and projected environment. His flexible yet disciplined approach tightening during periods of elevated inflation and easing cautiously as growth slows helps preserve the Federal Reserve’s credibility while mitigating the risk of a market destabilizing overreaction. Given current conditions of above-target inflation in certain sectors, a gradually cooling labor market, and persistent market volatility, Waller’s framework provides both predictability and balance, qualities highly valued by investors.
Market Implications by Candidate:
Waller: Offers policy stability, reduced volatility, and predictable bond yields. U.S. equities could benefit from consistent monetary guidance, while crypto markets might see supportive liquidity without excessive speculation or overheating.
Hassett: Likely to trigger short-term rallies in risk assets and equities due to aggressive easing. However, the risk of inflationary pressure and potential market reversals increases, especially in bond markets and long-duration assets.
Warsh: Market response would heavily depend on communication clarity. Predictable messaging could stabilize expectations, but any unexpected hawkish moves could lead to sharp volatility in both traditional and digital asset classes.
In summary, Christopher Waller stands out as the most balanced and pragmatic choice for guiding the U.S. economy through a period of uncertainty. His methodical, data-driven approach mitigates policy extremes, supports sustainable growth, and maintains inflation credibility creating an environment conducive to stability across equities, bonds, and cryptocurrencies. In a market landscape highly sensitive to monetary policy, such predictability and balance are likely to be rewarded with reduced volatility and investor confidence. #2026CryptoFlag been a long time since I sat in front of the computer and typed. As per tradition and ritual, I still want to write something.
If you can see these words at this moment, I believe you still can't leave this circle, whether it's out of genuine passion or dissatisfaction. In 2025, the most injured will be the old leeks in the crypto world—hard to say more, so let's just leave it at that.
While scrolling through my phone, I listen to Luo Zhenyu's New Year’s speech for the year 2026, a habit that’s been around for about seven or eight years. But this year feels especially strange. First, very few people are watching; second, the comments are full of sarcasm and irony. It seems everyone is not so satisfied or happy. Ordinary people's lives are getting harder, channels for voicing opinions are narrowing, and the cognitive split and ideological iteration within circles sometimes make it feel like even breathing is wrong.
Watching Mr. Luo still talking nonsense seriously, I feel myself drifting further away from this circle. Perhaps it's due to the industry I work in facing profit difficulties this year. I always feel his topics are quite illusory—AI, future healthcare, big health industry—full of happiness and positive energy, making it seem as if ordinary people can easily dive into this industry, or that AI will make medical consultations free in the future.
Ordinary people have no资格 to get sick. Looking ahead to the fourth quarter of 2025, my entire family supported over 30,000 yuan in medical GDP, and that’s based on insurance and commercial coverage. I am personally very resistant to going to the hospital. Every time I leave the inpatient department, I unconsciously marvel at the unreal world. At our age, most small business owners no longer compete over cars, houses, women, or children. It’s as if everyone suddenly awakens—quitting smoking and drinking, sleeping early, waking early, exercising diligently. Only with genuine health can more meaning be found in life.
Mr. Luo has obviously lost weight, which I very much envy. Wealthy people cherish their lives; it’s clear he’s put effort into adjusting himself. I should learn from this. In 2025, I gained 8 kilograms, with a fat head and big ears. Though I look blessed, only I know the internal emptiness.
Reflecting on 2025, my career is not doing well. Overall, it’s still in a state of contraction and regression. Although I predicted this at the beginning of the year, I didn’t expect it to be so difficult. When the takeout wave swept in, I finally closed one store in the fourth quarter, and the new model planning also stopped. As for 2026, I have no particular outlook for now. Our personnel reserve is somewhat thin; we choose to rest and recuperate, take one step at a time, focus on our own small territory. When it comes to实体投资, we still need to be clear and cautious.
Regarding investments, my wife said the fund lost money—exactly how much, I dare not ask, but I can guess. I only have the crypto track. The bull market started in November 2022, with the temporary peak on October 6, 2025. Looking at the total position since the start of the bull market, there are indeed profits, but if calculated based on the account balance on January 1, 2025, it’s definitely a loss.
The overall trend of the market in 2025 showed a跌-涨-跌 pattern. BTC was a disaster among many investment targets. ETH also couldn’t carry the crypto banner. Many new and old mainstream altcoins drifted in the fog of news and quantitative algorithms, ultimately entering winter under the control of new scythes.
The biggest lesson from this cycle is that after the rise of AI concepts, the underestimation of the capital volume that the seven giants of the US stock market would seize in the crypto market was a mistake. Wall Street and large companies only chase BTC, and their configuration mode of not炒作 mainstream altcoins is overly optimistic. Even more wrong was blindly believing politicians’ lies.
Looking back at 2025, if you miss the exit point at the summer or mid-autumn highs, it’s very hard to come out unscathed. Perhaps that’s the so-called pain point of value investing. In this increasingly bizarre and high-risk investment market, how can one grasp the big trend and avoid becoming a sacrifice on the battlefield?
Reviewing the two rounds of crypto investment history, if you want to still profit under FOMO, just one greed and you’ll likely end up亏损. Only value investing is the唯一出路—rationality. I find it hard to imagine what my outcome would be today if I hadn’t fully allocated in BTC, ETH, and ADA, or if I had gone all-in on altcoins like in previous cycles. If I hadn’t sold 30% of my holdings and BNB, I’d still be fully in the game now. What would my ending be?
Not fully退出 but not declaring victory either, but psychologically I would be extremely anxious. So, from this perspective, looking at my current account收益 and仓位分布, I can only say I was qualified in 2025 but not excellent. As I mentioned in my second live broadcast in November, if I were truly excellent, I should have decisively exited after 1011, at least keeping 50% of my空仓.
But I didn’t do that, so now I need to be responsible for my account and pay a certain interest cost for crossing the New Year. I saw some friends in the comments say I didn’t lead everyone to逃顶 and lost quite a bit. Honestly, when I saw that comment, I was a bit unhappy—after all, what I wanted to express and suggest isn’t necessarily correct. In the past few years of analysis and thoughts on trading, I often remind that these are just my personal opinions. I’m not a teacher or a大神; my opinions are for your参考 only. You need to consider your own situation carefully.
Maybe that’s a new friend—I don’t know his specific situation, and it’s his first time commenting. A few days ago, I shared this with a good friend, and she said I should feel fortunate. After all, I haven’t seen many people complain in comments, and there are fans and loyal subscribers waiting there. If you really care, keep writing, make yourself more rational, more professional, and help more people.
Haha, I felt a very strong力量—suddenly enlightened. But to be honest, I do have some long-term mainstream altcoins I’m quite optimistic about, and I’ve recommended them several times in comments and动态, including ETH, ADA, LINK, ONDO, AAVE, etc. Yesterday, I spent three hours reviewing comments, posts, and live content. If you bought these coins, even though our entry prices and allocations differ, I believe the recommended entry points, at their highest loss so far, should not exceed 50%. But if you’re currently experiencing losses, I hope you can forgive my advice. I will be more cautious in the future—no more blindly recommending coins, no more rash opinions. Please also prepare to enter or exit based on your own situation.
The friend who guided me last asked me a very practical question: Do I still believe in the 2026 crypto market? To be honest, I still do. It’s hard to sort out all the viewpoints in a short time. The future looks good, but the process will be very tough. As I wrote in my subscription update before, I won’t deceive myself because I know exactly which coins I hold, at what数字 I can profit, which funds can stay long-term, and which should be cut loss timely. So I still look forward to the first quarter of 2026. I know I can’t逆天改命 in the crypto world, but if I operate cautiously, the return on capital should be slightly higher than that of restaurant实体经营.
Sometimes, the reason I can be so calm and enlightened is because I look at my daughter’s long-term account—this is the account she will use for college in the future. I understand why I chose this配置 and can give long-term期待 and等待 to this fund.
Time is almost up. I need to publish this article before 12 o’clock. Borrowing a phrase I saw on Xiaohongshu to end my 2025总结: the road is still long, we weather the storms together, watch over each other, and encourage each other.
Your choices in previous years have led to your current predicament. Your current choices will shape your future life.
If you don’t prepare in advance, the days ahead will be very bleak. If a person’s vision is always far-reaching, whether in life or investment, they will ultimately be the winner.
In life, cherish every income. In investment, prefer long-term strategies. When quality assets fall to low levels, bet on the growth of the next few years. While you’re still worried about short-term fluctuations over a few days, others are already planning their布局 for the coming years.
Without proper思想, the results will be very different. I sincerely wish friends who follow and watch this动态 in 2026 to stay calm, face it optimistically, stay healthy, and prosper financially☕☕☕ 🔥 #Gate2025AnnualReport 🔥
Why Security, Reserves, and Transparency Matter More Than Ever in 2026
As the crypto market moves deeper into 2026, one truth has become impossible to ignore: real trust is built on security and transparency, not promises. After multiple market cycles marked by volatility, liquidity crises, and exchange failures, users today demand more than attractive features or low fees. They demand verifiable proof that their assets are safe, fully backed, and responsibly managed.
This is where proof of reserves plays a critical role. In simple terms, it ensures that an exchange holds assets equal to or greater than all user deposits. It eliminates uncertainty around hidden leverage or misuse of funds and replaces blind trust with mathematical verification. In 2026, proof of reserves is no longer a bonus feature — it is a baseline requirement for any credible centralized exchange.
Gate approaches security as a long-term commitment, not a marketing narrative. By implementing cryptographic verification methods such as Merkle tree structures and privacy-preserving proofs, users can independently verify that their assets are included in reserve data without exposing sensitive information. This level of transparency empowers users and reinforces accountability.
In an increasingly mature market, exchanges that prioritize strong reserves and open verification naturally stand out. Security is no longer behind the scenes — it is the foundation of sustainable growth and long-term confidence in crypto. #CryptoMarketRebound The rebound phase of the crypto market is not just about prices moving up again — it’s about confidence slowly returning to a space that rewards patience, discipline, and strategic thinking. After every correction, the market reshapes its structure, filtering out noise and emotional decisions, and leaving room for those who stayed focused on long-term value rather than short-term hype. This period is where smart positioning matters more than speed, where risk management becomes a mindset, not a rule, and where psychology separates reactive traders from strategic participants. A rebound is built step by step: stronger narratives, healthier liquidity, and communities that understand growth is a process, not a moment. For those who read the market beyond charts, this phase isn’t just recovery — it’s preparation for the next expansion. #My2026FirstPost
2026 is not just the turning of a calendar page — it is a deliberate reset of mindset, strategy, and responsibility in Web3. After years of volatility, narratives, and emotional cycles, I believe the real edge in this market is no longer speed, but clarity. Psychological discipline, risk awareness, and long-term thinking are becoming more valuable than any single trade or trend.
This year, my vision is to move beyond reaction-based decisions and focus on structure: understanding market behavior, respecting cycles, and aligning strategy with personal growth. In a space where noise is constant, choosing patience, consistency, and learning is a competitive advantage. Web3 is evolving from speculation toward systems, communities, and real contribution — and that shift demands maturity from all of us.
On Gate Square, I aim to share not just opinions, but perspectives shaped by experience, reflection, and accountability. Growth is no longer individual; it’s collective. If we raise the quality of thinking, dialogue, and participation, we raise the entire ecosystem.
2026 starts with intention. Not louder voices, but clearer ones.
