Walmart Fully Embraces Crypto Payments: A Silent Revolution in Financial Sovereignty
On January 5, 2026, global retail giant Walmart officially announced the integration of cryptocurrencies into its payment system, supporting mainstream assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. This news hit like a boulder in the ocean, instantly stirring waves across the crypto market. But this transformation is far from a simple trend-jacking; it is Walmart’s strategic reclaiming of its financial sovereignty and a silent revolution that could shake the traditional financial system.

Today’s analysis using moving averages.
Since ETH retreated after approaching the $3,300 level, this is a typical “false breakout” or “pressure-triggered correction” from a technical perspective. Currently, the price has fallen back to around $3,240 - $3,250, and the entry point for short positions has entered the “confirmation stage.”
Combining the latest moving averages (MA) and KDJ trends

Trump's latest statement on the Venezuela situation has mainly triggered two concerns in the crypto circle:
First, whether the prospects of the oil-backed currency will change; second, whether the flow of crypto funds in Latin America will be affected.
Let's start with the oil-backed currency.
As a national digital currency issued by Venezuela anchored to its oil reserves, its fate has always been closely tied to the political environment. Trump has explicitly stated that he is not seeking to overthrow the current power structure, which means that the policies related to the oil-backed currenc

#比特币 BTC Year-End Closing, Is the Four-Year Cycle Broken?
2025 has officially ended, and Bitcoin has perfectly marked the last second of its yearly candle.
Bitcoin closed 2025 with a price below the start of the year, marking the first time in history that it experienced a yearly decline one year after the halving. This has sparked intense discussions in the market about whether the "Bitcoin four-year cycle" has come to an end. Although the latest halving occurred in April 2024, BTC previously hit a historical high of $126,000 on October 6, but then experienced a significant correction, curren

Since ancient times, those caught in contracts have used low leverage. Do you know why? There's a saying called "boiling frogs in warm water," because with low leverage, you don't feel much, and you'll get deeper and deeper into the trap. Then, as you hold more funds in your position, you keep adding to your position, becoming more and more trapped. The more you add, the deeper you get, and the more trapped you become. So, whether the leverage is high or low doesn't matter; what's important is whether you set a stop loss. If you don't set a stop loss, who will blow up if not you? Do you agree?

If you also play with altcoins, you're probably no stranger to this kind of story: a certain token remains flat for a long time, then suddenly surges by 60%, 80%, or even more in a single day without warning. You open your account, see that suddenly rising bullish candle, your heart races—could it finally be my turn to make money?
But don’t rush, keep reading.
You might find that even if it jumps 60% today, your position still hasn't broken even, and you’re even still in the red. Because before this surge, it may have been declining for a long time, losing 70%, 80%. Today’s spike is just filli

2025 is coming to an end soon, and many people are starting to look ahead to the 2026 crypto market: "Will there be a bull run next year? Which assets should I allocate?" But I want to first give everyone a cold shower: don't be fooled by the Federal Reserve's "policy fog"! The 2026 crypto market will present both opportunities and risks, and the risks may be more deadly than the opportunities. In this article today, I will analyze the Federal Reserve's policy trends and outline three core opportunities and two deadly risks for 2026, helping you make fewer mistakes and earn more in the new yea

Ethereum to hit $9,000 early next year, Bitcoin to reach $200,000 by 2026
Tom Lee, Chairman of BitMine Immersion Technologies, the world's largest Ethereum reserve company, stated this week on CNBC's Power Lunch that as Wall Street accelerates asset tokenization and moves financial activities on-chain, Ethereum(ETH) could climb to $7,000–$9,000 in early 2026.

#数字资产市场动态 Contract to make quick money? Forget it. Out of ten beginners entering the market, nine fall behind because they simply don’t understand the rules at all. It’s not that they can’t predict the market, they just don’t understand what they’re doing.
**Contracts are actually very simple — just betting on the direction**
If you’re bullish, go long; if bearish, go short. The profit comes from the price difference. Unlike spot trading, you don’t need to hold the coins for appreciation; contracts are about short-term directional betting. The price swings in between? For contract traders, th

Seeing the news that a major institution increased its ETH holdings by 1 billion USD, the only thought that flashes in my mind is: retail investors are about to give away their money again.
Over the past three months, I’ve discovered a particularly painful pattern—whenever this institution makes a high-profile statement, the trend of ETH should be questioned, even looked down upon. But this time? Still, a bunch of people hear the word "increase" and immediately chase up at $2,940.
Why am I not that excited? I looked at on-chain data and understood: this institution started accumulating ETH whe

#数字资产市场动态 Check out what your Dogecoin in your wallet can be exchanged for— a Starbucks coffee? Tesla merchandise? Or the legendary Ferrari badge?
This once-joke in the crypto world has been doing increasingly unconventional things over the past two years. From small-scale payments to various brand collaboration rumors, DOGE has stubbornly transformed from a meme coin into a real payment tool with actual value. The stark contrast behind this is quite ironic: while the world mocks it, it’s becoming more and more embedded in payment scenarios.
And that "invisible hand"—as everyone knows, a s

The world is still under a combination of "high interest rates + low growth", with a general risk appetite for traditional assets being low, and funds are more inclined towards high liquidity, leading assets (BTC/ETH) rather than small market capitalization tokens.
Cryptographic assets are increasingly viewed as "high volatility risk assets" in institutional allocation, with respect to macro liquidity and Federal Reserve interest rate expectations.
The market is highly sensitive; once there are expectations of "interest rate cuts" or "easing signals," it often reacts first on BTC before spread

Trading Survival Guide for Small Funds Account
This guide is a must-read for those who only have a few hundred U in hand. Especially for players with less than 1000 U in capital, don't rush to open a position.
The cryptocurrency world is actually a long-term battle. The less capital you have, the more conservative your approach should be - like an old hunter: survive first, then think about making money.
Last year, when I helped my friend enter the market, he only had 500U in his account, and his fingers were trembling while clicking the mouse. The first thing I told him was: "Don't th

Using history as a reference, what position is Bitcoin in during the current cycle?
Today, let's mainly talk about Bitcoin. I hold a certain proportion of stocks related to Bitcoin. What is the current price level, and what is the expected trend for the next year? We need to analyze this.
1. The cyclicality of Bitcoin is very obvious. From the past few instances, it is basically a 4-year cycle, which is very stable! As for the reasons behind the cycle, there are various opinions, but the core influencing factor lies in the Bitcoin halving event. The Bitcoin halving is a preset, automatical
