1. Never believe anyone's price predictions.
2. Don't "diversify" into other cryptos; none of them are actually decentralized, everything except bitcoin is a shitcoin (yes, really), and it's all gambling. The point of bitcoin is not gambling, but to end modern day slavery (fiat currency).
3. When everyone you know is talking about bitcoin, you're at the top of a bull market. You'll likely be too exuberant to realize it though. It will be obvious in hindsight.
4. Don't "trade some altcoins on the side to get more bitcoin". You are not that smart, and the overwhelming probability is that you will get wrecked.
5. DCA into bitcoin. Ignore your emotions. Don't try to time the market. Just stack what you can every paycheck.
6. Don't be too excited about bitcoin; people will feel like you're scamming them even though you're just trying help.
7. Go to meetups & conferences. Don't be isolated. Bitcoiners are generally very awesome people.
8. When people ask you about how to buy bitcoin, send them to a BITCOIN-ONLY company. Example for why: My cousin bought bitcoin (on Coinbase) during the bull market, then sold it for shiba on the same platform and now she pretty much lost everything. Bitcoin-only companies are the safest option to keep newbies from doing newbie things.
9. Be on #bitcoin    twitter and nostr. Obviously if you're reading this, you're already here...but I didn't get on twitter until 2020 and can tell you that it's a lot less lonely hodling bitcoin when you see a bunch of other people on this platform experiencing the same things you are.
10. Be skeptical of influencers. Even me (I'm not a huge account, but still). Some are good, some are bad. Even if they have good intentions, their judgement can be clouded by bad incentives.
11. Stop trying to convince everyone you know that bitcoin will make everything better (even though it will). Instead, be a good resource for the people who eventually reach out to you about it. Be known as "the bitcoin guy" and let people come to you when they're ready. Have good content prepared for them to read/watch when they do.
That is all. It's been a great ride so far and I'm happy to know you guys.

#DOGECOİN ($DOGE ) has lost nearly one-tenth of its millionaire holders in the opening weeks of 2026, coinciding with price weakness for the meme cryptocurrency.
Blockchain data from the Dogecoin Rich List shows that on January 1, 2026, reviewed by Finbold with the help of the Wayback Machine, there were 1,052 Dogecoin millionaire addresses, defined as wallets holding at least $1 million worth of DOGE.
That total comprised 889 addresses with holdings valued between $1 million and $9.99 million, alongside 163 wallets holding more than $10 million.

By February 2, 2026, the number of millionaire addresses had fallen to 950, with 800 wallets in the $1 million to $9.99 million range and 150 addresses above $10 million.
The decline of 102 millionaire wallets in just over one month represents a 9.7% drop, meaning roughly one in every ten Dogecoin millionaires disappeared over that period.

The contraction closely mirrors Dogecoin’s price weakness early this year, as the token has failed to sustain momentum amid broader risk-off conditions in crypto markets. In this context, DOGE has dropped nearly 15% year to date, trading at $0.11 as of press time.

Dogecoin’s 2026 struggles
With Dogecoin lacking a hard supply cap and continuing to issue new coins, sustained price appreciation has proven difficult during periods of fading speculative demand. 
Notably, Dogecoin’s lack of real-world utility continues to drive investors away, as capital shifts toward cryptocurrencies offering staking, lending, or more robust ecosystems rather than relying on meme-driven hype. 
Its inflationary supply, with unlimited new coins minted via mining, exerts constant downward pressure, diluting value when demand weakens. 
At the same time, the waning influence of early boosters such as Elon Musk has also played a role, with recent mentions failing to spark significant rallies and leaving DOGE vulnerable to fading sentiment. 
Broader market dynamics have amplified the pressure, as a crypto-wide downturn driven by macroeconomic headwinds, including U.S. interest rate concerns, regulatory uncertainty, geopolitical risks, and reduced ETF inflows, has weighed on risk assets. 
Overall, meme coins like DOGE tend to suffer disproportionately in such environments. 
While some on-chain data shows accumulation during the dip, hinting at potential stabilization if key support around $0.10 holds, bearish technical signals and shrinking trading volumes suggest further downside risk, with some forecasts targeting the $0.05 to $0.08 range if momentum fails to reverse.
$DOGE #MarketCorrection

During a live market rundown, a daily crypto-focused host warned that Bitcoin’s slide below $80,000 and heavy ETF outflows are stripping away key support and pushing the market toward what could become a deeper correction.
Market connoisseur Wendy O framed the past 24 hours as “absolutely brutal,” with cascading liquidations, stressed altcoins, and even precious metals showing unusual volatility.
Liquidations & a Possible Test Of The 200-Week EMA
The host pegged Bitcoin around $77,000 during the stream and highlighted a downside target near $68,000, tied to the 200-week exponential moving average. A decisive break below that level, she said, would mark the point where “things are going to get really, really, really nasty” echoing conditions last seen during the 2022–2023 bear market when BTC traded under the 200-week EMA for an extended stretch.

Leveraged traders were hit hard. Roughly $1.5–$1.6 billion in crypto positions were liquidated over 24 hours, making it one of the worst liquidation events in the industry’s history. Most of the damage came from over-leveraged longs, particularly in Ethereum. The host noted that some traders had positioned for an ETH move higher, only to be wiped out as the market reversed.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs, once seen as a stabilizing force, are now a source of concern. The commentator cited figures showing around $1.6 billion in net withdrawals this month and roughly $6 billion leaving U.S.-listed spot products over the past three months. Since early 2026, the ETFs have reportedly seen an exodus of about 4,500–4,600 BTC, compared with tens of thousands flowing in over the same period a year earlier.
Altcoin Pain Meets MicroStrategy Risk & E-File Fallout
Altcoins are faring worse. The host said “altcoins are suffering, they’re struggling, they’re going down” while pointing to Ethereum’s fall toward key support near $2,200 and the possibility of a move to $1,500. They also mentioned Solana weakness and noted that XRP had recently tagged a higher target level that some analysts had been watching.
MicroStrategy’s aggressive Bitcoin strategy was flagged as a risk point.
The company’s heavy use of debt to accumulate BTC has long been debated, and the host suggested that if its position were ever forced or “knocked out” the knock-on effects for Bitcoin and related derivatives could be severe. While they did not predict such an outcome, they framed MicroStrategy as “in a little bit of hot water” if prices slide far enough.
Beyond price action, Wendy O addressed newly surfaced “E-files” that mention names from the crypto sector, including figures connected to Ripple and Stellar (XLM).
One cited email from 2014, involving early industry investors, described Ripple and Stellar as “bad for the ecosystem” and raised concerns about backing “two horses in the same race.” The commentator stressed that, in the material they reviewed, there were no explicit allegations of criminal behavior against those crypto teams—only competitive and funding-related tensions.
She repeatedly urged viewers to be cautious about unverified claims circulating on social media, especially in an era of AI-generated forgeries, and to distinguish between reputational damage by association and documented wrong-doing.
Why This Matters
The host argued that the combination of ETF outflows, heavy liquidations, and macro stress effectively places crypto in a new bear phase, even if the broader cycle structure remains intact.
She expects Bitcoin to consolidate roughly between $74,000 and $80,000 in the short term, with a meaningful risk of a test near $68,000 and, for some analysts, even the $55,000 region.
For strategy, the commentator pushed dollar-cost averaging over short-term trading, warning that “most people think we get into Bitcoin and crypto, we’re going to be expert traders… that’s not how it works.” They framed current conditions as an entry window for long-term investors who understand volatility, while cautioning against panic trades or chasing leverage during a period of heightened uncertainty and ongoing regulatory and political noise.

Vanar Chain ($VANRY ), the AI-native Layer 1 blockchain for Web3, is positioning itself for significant growth and evolution in 2026 and beyond. Currently in a building/accumulation phase amid broader market dips (trading ~$0.0064–$0.0065 as of early February 2026), the project's future focuses on deepening AI integration, sustainable utility, governance, and real-world adoption rather than short-term hype.
Key Future Roadmap Highlights for 2026
- AI Tool Subscription Model (Q1/Q2 2026 onward): Core AI-native tools (like myNeutron, Kayon, and upcoming Axon/Flows for automation and intelligent workflows) will shift to a subscription-based system paid in $VANRY This creates recurring on-chain activity, drives token demand through buy pressure, and funds sustainable ecosystem growth — turning from "build" to "activate" phase for agentic AI apps.
- Governance Proposal 2.0: Upgrades will give #vanar holders direct control over AI model parameters, incentive rules, and ecosystem decisions. This enhances decentralization and community-driven evolution, making the chain more adaptive to regulatory and tech changes.
- Enhanced Security, Compliance & Connectivity: Focus on foundational improvements for enterprise/trust layers — better regulatory alignment, decentralized data security, and seamless cross-chain/agent interoperability. This supports scaling for businesses, gaming, metaverses, PayFi, and RWAs.
- Agentic & Automation Features: Rollout of Axon (AI reasoning/automation) and Flows (workflow orchestration) to enable fully autonomous, on-chain intelligent applications. Emphasizes semantic memory, on-chain reasoning, and agent-to-agent collaboration — positioning Vanar as infrastructure for the "AI era" where apps learn and act independently.
- Ecosystem Expansion & Events: Participation in major 2026 conferences like Consensus Hong Kong (Feb 10–12), Crypto Expo Dubai (Mar), and TOKEN2049 Dubai (Apr) to showcase partnerships (e.g., Worldpay for agentic payments) and attract developers/brands.
Longer-Term Outlook & Price Predictions
Analysts see Vanar as a sleeper for AI-Web3 convergence, with potential market explosion in 2026–2030 as AI agents go mainstream. Price forecasts vary widely due to volatility:
- 2026 Estimates: Average ~$0.013–$0.016 (optimistic up to ~$0.02+ in bullish scenarios), implying 100–150%+ upside from current levels if subscriptions and AI utility gain traction.
- Beyond: Some models project $0.03–$0.07+ by 2030 in strong adoption cases, driven by real usage over speculation.
Overall, Vanar's future looks promising if it executes on AI-native utility and subscriptions — quietly building scalable, intelligent infrastructure while competitors chase trends. It's less about moonshots and more about becoming the "intelligence layer" for on-chain apps. Watch for subscription launches and governance updates as key catalysts.

A trading analyst has outlined a long-term timeline for Bitcoin’s (BTC) next major price milestone, arguing that the cryptocurrency is unlikely to reach $145,000 until the current market cycle has fully reset.
According to TradingShot, recent developments on high-timeframe technical indicators suggest Bitcoin has entered the early stages of a broader bear cycle, as outlined in a TradingView analysis on January 30.
The assessment is grounded in quarterly chart signals, where Bitcoin has recently moved past a Relative Vigor Index (RVGI) bearish cross. On higher timeframes, the RVGI is viewed as a cycle-defining indicator rather than a short-term momentum signal.

TradingShot noted that in past Bitcoin cycles, similar three-month bearish crosses consistently emerged in the early stages of bear markets, not near cycle bottoms.
Historical data also shows a clear rhythm, with RVGI bearish crosses occurring roughly every 15 to 16 quarters, in line with Bitcoin’s four-year cycle.
In each case, a market bottom followed about four quarters later, pointing to roughly a year of downside or consolidation. Based on this pattern, the current cycle suggests a potential bottom around October 2026.
Momentum indicators support this view, with the quarterly RSI peaking one quarter before the RVGI bearish cross and being rejected at a long-term declining trendline that has capped momentum for nearly seven years. 
This behavior echoes prior cycle transitions that preceded extended corrections, suggesting macro bullish momentum has already been exhausted despite the possibility of short-term rallies.
Bitcoin price levels to watch
From a price standpoint, TradingShot expects any gains in the coming quarters to remain corrective.
Historically, Bitcoin has not made new all-time highs between a quarterly RVGI bearish cross and the eventual cycle bottom, instead spending months stabilizing and rebuilding momentum.
Within this context, the $145,000 target is assigned to the next bull cycle. If a bottom forms in late 2026, a prolonged accumulation period into mid-2027 would likely follow before a sustained breakout.
Accordingly, TradingShot’s outlook sees late 2027 or 2028 as the most realistic window for Bitcoin to reach $145,000, once quarterly momentum turns decisively higher again.
Bitcoin price analysis
By press time, Bitcoin was trading at $82,444, having declined by a modest 0.2% over the past 24 hours, while on the weekly chart the leading cryptocurrency was down nearly 8%.

Overall, Bitcoin continues to show signs of bearishness, trading well below its key trend indicators. The 50-day SMA is near $89,828, while the 200-day SMA stands much higher at about $104,184.
With price below both averages and the short-term SMA beneath the long-term one, momentum remains negative, pointing to an ongoing corrective or consolidation phase rather than a renewed uptrend.
However, downside pressure is easing with the 14-day RSI at 33.4, which sits just above oversold levels, signaling weak momentum but also suggesting that selling intensity is moderating.

Plasma is a high-performance layer1 blockchain purpose-built forstablecoins.
Stablecoins are changing how businesses and individuals move money. They can offer a practical alternative when traditional payment systems are slow, costly, or hard to access.
Stablecoins combine the stability of fiat currencies (such as USD, GBP, or EUR) with the speed and transparency of blockchain networks.
When reliable off-ramps are available, this can create a more seamless payment experience, letting users convert stablecoins back to fiat through exchanges, cards, or bank transfers.
Stablecoin activity is likely to keep growing as technology improves, regulation matures, and more people and institutions use digital dollars in daily operations.
Many analysts expect stablecoins to become a standard building block of the global financial system, especially where they connect to banks, fintech apps, and merchant platforms.
Smart contracts already extend stablecoins beyond simple peer-to-peer transfers. They are used to automate payroll, support supply chain and trade finance, run onchain treasuries, and help issue or settle tokenized assets.
Each new use case highlights how programmable digital dollars can support financial workflows that are difficult or expensive to run on legacy rails.
Public and private experiments are also converging. Many central banks are exploring central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) as a sovereign form of digital money for households and businesses.
A future ecosystem could be hybrid, with CBDCs used for high-level public money functions, while stablecoins remain flexible tools for cross-border commerce, platforms, and user-facing applications.
Some observers see this mix as a way to improve efficiency and financial inclusion. Others are concerned about privacy and financial surveillance, especially if CBDCs enable very granular tracking of payments.
How these technologies evolve will depend on policy choices, regulation, and market trust. For now, stablecoins already act as a bridge between legacy finance and internet-native money, and their role in payments continues to expand.
Summary
Stablecoin payments offer a faster, cheaper, and more programmable way to move digital dollars compared with many legacy rails. By combining messaging, clearing, and settlement in a single onchain transaction, they help reduce delays, fixed fees, and cash flow uncertainty.
At the same time, regulatory uncertainty, on/off-ramp frictions, and integration work remain real constraints.
Even so, for cross-border payouts, B2B flows, eCommerce, and payroll, stablecoins are already becoming a useful complement to traditional payment systems in an increasingly digital economy.
