【BlockBeats】The latest CME Federal Reserve watch data has been released. The expectation of a 25 basis point rate cut in January next year has slightly increased to 17.7%, but the probability of holding rates steady is higher, reaching 82.3%. Looking ahead to March. The probability that the Federal Reserve will keep rates unchanged within this window is 46.7%, with the other half involving rate cuts—an accumulated 25 basis point cut accounts for 45.6%, and a 50 basis point cut only 7.7%. In other words, the market is pricing in a very restrained rate cut outlook for the second half of the year. The schedule is set: the Federal Reserve's FOMC meetings are scheduled for January 28, 2026, and March 18, 2026. Will these two meetings become catalysts at the start of the year? The market is waiting for an answer.

ngl, 82% probability of no cut in jan is basically the fed saying "we're not moving" without actually saying it lol... classic security theater tbh. watched this exact pattern play out before the last three pivot attempts, and spoiler alert, none of it went down like the market expected.
【Blockchain Rhythm】Flow blockchain experienced a serious security incident in late December. The attacker successfully exploited a vulnerability in the Flow execution layer to transfer approximately $3.9 million worth of assets before the network was shut down. Fortunately, this attack did not involve users' existing balances, and all deposits remain secure. According to tracking data, the stolen $3.9 million was mainly transferred out through cross-chain bridges such as Celer, Debridge, Relay, and Stargate. Security agencies have successfully identified and flagged the attacker's wallet and are monitoring its money laundering activities via Thorchain and Chainflip in real-time. The Flow Foundation has taken immediate action by submitting emergency freeze requests to stablecoin issuers like Circle and Tether, as well as major mainstream trading platforms, in an attempt to prevent further fund transfers. From a technical perspective, Fl
Here we go again? This time, 3.9 million is gone. Luckily, user funds weren't affected, but how many people will still dare to use it if this continues?
Recent data shows that the top 100 publicly listed companies worldwide hold over 1.08 million Bitcoins, and several listed companies have increased their holdings recently. This reflects institutional recognition of Bitcoin's medium- to long-term value, and the increase in holdings has become an indicator of market confidence.
Japanese listed company KLab launches a "Dual Golden Financial Strategy," planning to allocate 3.6 billion yen from a 5.1 billion yen financing, with a 6:4 ratio of Bitcoin and gold. As of December 25, the company has purchased 3.17 Bitcoins and 1,860 shares of gold ETFs, demonstrating recognition of Bitcoin's long-term value and a new approach to asset diversification.
A whale used a flash loan to go long on ETH, recently selling 5,000 ETH for 14.6 million USDC. They have sold a total of 35,605 ETH, earning a profit of $13.14 million, and still hold 15,000 ETH, indicating a somewhat complex attitude towards the subsequent market trend.
This whale is really smart, making money and then running but still holding onto chips... I truly don't understand this tactic, either withdraw everything or go all in. Playing around in the middle like this easily leads to getting slapped in the face.
【Crypto World】Recently, there is an interesting fundraising case worth paying attention to—a certain identity management startup significantly oversubscribed in its seed round and then secured Series A funding, preparing to expand two core products: one is the "Community Energy Grid" platform, and the other is a blockchain-based identity lifecycle management system. Why do this? The issue is actually quite painful. Currently, AI infrastructure construction faces an awkward situation: many data center projects often invest billions of dollars but are frequently blocked by local opposition. The core problem is not technology but trust—communities do not trust you, regulatory authorities cannot find legitimate grounds, and there is no true consensus among all parties. As a result, these projects are just laid flat. This company's approach is somewhat different. Their logic is: rather than bypassing the community, it’s better to genuinely bring the community in to participate and also share in the benefits. By establishing a blockchain-verified consensus mechanism, they directly bind the participation rights and revenue rights of local communities.

Hey, I respect this logic. Compared to those big capital firms forcefully pouring money into data centers, truly treating the community as shareholders and sharing the profits—what a world of difference.

Basically, it’s still a trust issue. People in the crypto space understand this best—on-chain verification and consensus mechanisms—that’s the way forward.
---
Some substance here. The community energy grid concept is very Web3, but the key still depends on implementation—don’t let it become just empty talk.
---
Raising a Series A round so aggressively—either the team has a strong background or they’ve really hit a pain point... I bet on the latter.
---
One sentence summary: from "I build the infrastructure" to "We build it together"—brilliant.
---
Data center bottlenecks have been an issue for so long, and finally someone thought of breaking through with blockchain... makes sense.
---
Damn, binding participation rights and profit rights— isn’t that just the DAO model? Just packaged as infrastructure.

Does the community really have a say, or is it still capital pulling the strings in the end... a bit of a question mark.
Yala Bitcoin Liquidity Protocol has adjusted the role of the YU token, but the redemption mechanism remains effective, allowing holders to redeem according to the plan. The team will shift focus to prediction markets, maintaining the core rights and interests in a prudent manner, thereby strengthening community confidence.
YU fading out is fine, as long as you can still exchange at the original price, which is much better than some projects going straight to zero. The key is whether the prediction market can become popular; otherwise, it just feels like telling a different story.
The proposal by Aave DAO regarding control over brand assets sparked intense community discussion, ultimately narrowly losing with 55.29% opposition votes, reflecting differing opinions on the transfer of brand assets. This vote highlights the balance issue between decentralized governance and actual operations.
The USDC Treasury recently burned 60 million USDC, attracting market attention. Such operations reflect adjustments to the stablecoin supply and may impact liquidity expectations. Market participants should closely monitor this change to understand market demand and liquidity dynamics.

60 million tokens were directly burned, Circle's move is quite ruthless... But on the other hand, it's hard to say whether this wave is truly shrinking liquidity or if there's another deeper intention behind it.
Solana spot ETF continues to attract funds, with a net inflow of $1.48 million on December 24, indicating institutional optimism about its ecosystem. Fidelity's FSOL ETF saw a net inflow of $1.08 million, with a total cumulative inflow surpassing $113 million. VanEck's VSOL ETF is also gradually gaining recognition, with total assets reaching $931 million, highlighting the growing attention of traditional finance towards Solana.
fidelity's accumulation pattern here is textbook... 108M on a single day? that's not retail noise, that's institutional positioning. the whale clustering around these ETF inflows is statistically significant. solana's breaking through institutional resistance levels—watch the wallet velocity spike next week, it always does
