Cryptocurrency Dusk, oriented towards confidentiality, increased by 40% on January 19, reaching the highest level since the beginning of 2025. The reason for this is that investor interest shifted towards altcoins with small capitalization.
According to data from the analytical company Arkham, since the beginning of the year, the price of Dusk has grown more than four times. At the moment of writing the article, the asset ranked among the top four largest cryptocurrencies by trading volume over 24 hours, surpassed only by Zcash, Monero, and Dash. According to experts, capital began to flow from projects with large capitalization, such as Monero and Dash, into smaller altcoins. Possibly, traders are attracted by other features of Dusk. Thus, according to the technical documentation of the project, the asset uses cryptographic technology based on zero-knowledge proofs and zk-SNARK. This allows for the confidentiality of transaction data while providing regulatory agencies access to the information necessary for audits. This distinguishes the cryptocurrency from other similar coins that ensure complete anonymity. Along with the rise in the price of Dusk, there have also been alarming signals. According to Arkham, from January 16 to 17, the inflow of assets to exchanges exceeded 6 million Dusk per day, which is the highest indicator over the last 30 days. Such increased inflow to exchanges usually indicates that holders are preparing to sell the asset.$DUSK #Write2Earn

Crypto Fear & Greed Index returned to 'Greed' level for the first time since October's $19 billion liquidation.

On Thursday, January 15, the index dropped to 61, reflecting improved overall sentiment after several weeks of 'fear' and 'extreme fear'. The index rose to 48 earlier that day, corresponding to the 'neutral' zone. The last time the Crypto Fear & Greed Index dropped was October 11, 2025, following the withdrawal of $19 billion from the digital assets market. The Crypto Fear & Greed Index is calculated based on multiple market indicators, including price volatility of major digital assets, trading activity, market momentum, Google search trends, and overall trader sentiment on social networks. Investors and traders use the index to assess market conditions and decide whether to buy, sell digital assets, or refrain from taking any action. The index values began improving following Bitcoin's rally, which saw its price rise from $89,799 to a two-month high of $97,704 on January 14.#Write2Earn #WriteToEarnUpgrade

Binance, the world's leading cryptocurrency exchange, has launched new perpetual contracts tied to gold and silver. These products will allow platform users to trade traditional assets using crypto-style derivatives. The launch marks Binance's first step into the regulated non-crypto perpetual contracts space. According to the official announcement, Binance TradFi Perpetuals has launched two contracts: XAUUSDT for gold and XAGUSDT for silver. Both products are denominated in USDT and have the same structure as existing Binance crypto perpetuals. They have no expiration date and can be traded at any time, including when traditional commodity markets are closed. According to Binance, these contracts are designed for traders who want to profit from changes in gold and silver prices without owning physical assets. Users can also apply leverage, making these products suitable for hedging or short-term trading strategies. Binance stated that pricing is governed by a structured risk management model for trading during non-market hours. During regular market hours, prices are tracked using an index based on data from multiple providers. The contracts are available in the Binance Futures section on both the website and the mobile app, in a dedicated TradFi tab.#Write2Earn #Binance

Binance announced that it will delist certain trading pairs with Flow and add the token to its "Watchlist". This label is assigned to cryptocurrencies that demonstrate "significantly higher volatility and risks compared to other tokens listed on the exchange," the exchange's statement says. Binance clarified that these decisive steps were taken after a "recent analysis" of the tokens. However, experts linked the delisting of the asset to the exploit of Flow, which occurred on December 27, 2025. At that time, the Flow network was hacked by a hacker who exploited a vulnerability to create fraudulent FLOW tokens and stole assets worth $3.9 million. This led to a rapid sell-off and a liquidity crisis on exchanges, and a drop in cryptocurrency by approximately 40% in the first days after the exploit. In a preliminary report on the incident, the Flow team reported that it was "concerned about how one exchange reacted to this incident," referring to a "failure in the AML/KYC system" that allowed hackers to deposit stolen FLOW, convert part of it into bitcoins, and withdraw funds. Some users suggested that, judging by the description, the unnamed exchange could be Binance. Meanwhile, the developers of the Flow Foundation are working on fully restoring the blockchain ecosystem as part of the plan to mitigate the aftermath of the hack. According to the organization, only two steps remain: restore user account records and eliminate assets created by the fraudster.#Write2Earn #USJobsData #CPIWatch #WriteToEarnUpgrade $FLOW
