White House Cryptocurrency Roundtable: Disagreements on Stablecoin Yields Unresolved, Compromise Requested Within This Month The White House convened a roundtable meeting with the cryptocurrency industry and Wall Street banks, focusing on whether stablecoins can provide yields or rewards, but both sides failed to reach an agreement. The Trump administration has requested that all parties put forward a compromise proposal on the legislative language regarding stablecoin yields by the end of this month to advance the Senate's cryptocurrency market structure bill. The meeting was led by Presidential Cryptocurrency Advisor Patrick Witt, and the White House hopes to submit the bill to the Senate Banking Committee as soon as possible while also seeking support from some Democrats. The cryptocurrency industry believes there has been progress in this meeting, but the banks have yet to propose specific concessions.

The '1011 insider giant whale' lost 250 million overnight, yet crazily transferred ETH to Binance? The truth is here.
In the cryptocurrency circle, the '1011 insider giant whale' is definitely a well-known name, and some also call him the 'BTC OG insider giant whale'. The reason he is dubbed 'insider' is not because he has any inside information, but because his past operations were too precise—such as the market trend around October 11, 2025, where he accurately hit the rhythm, making a fortune, and the community jokingly referred to him as having 'insider knowledge'. Essentially, he is a top player who makes a living through on-chain data analysis with a very high success rate. But no matter how powerful the giant whale is, it can't escape the 'harvest' of high leverage. On the early morning of February 1, 2026, the crypto market experienced a sharp decline, with the price of ETH directly falling to around $2400 from its high, along with a large number of leveraged long positions being 'liquidated'. In this wave of market activity, the worst off was this '1011 insider giant whale'.

Vitalik discusses the design of creator tokens and proposes the establishment of a non-tokenized DAO Vitalik Buterin published on the X platform, exploring the design ideas of creator tokens. He stated that over the past decade, the cryptocurrency industry has been ineffective in content incentives, with the core issue being the imperfect mechanism for selecting high-quality content. Especially now that AI can generate a large amount of content at a low cost, the industry's focus should shift to 'identifying and amplifying high-quality content.' He believes that the key to Substack's success is the proactive selection of quality creators rather than relying solely on mechanism design. In response to the existing problem of 'high-impact users dominating the rankings' for creator tokens, Vitalik proposed establishing a non-tokenized creator DAO, where members vote to select creators, while also allowing creators to issue personal tokens. If they enter the DAO, they can use DAO profits to buy back and destroy tokens, reducing pure speculation and improving screening efficiency.

Recently, the crypto market has been quite unstable, with Bitcoin prices continuously declining, down nearly 13% since the beginning of the year, once dropping below the $80,000 mark, hitting a new low since April 2025, and ETF funds have been flowing out continuously, with tens of billions of dollars leaving the market each week.

Binance announced through an open letter that it will completely 'restructure' its SAFU fund, which is commonly referred to as the user security asset fund, converting all of its originally held $1 billion in stablecoins into Bitcoin, and plans to complete this conversion within 30 days.

CryptoQuant's report indicates that the Bitcoin mining profitability sustainability index has dropped to 21, marking the lowest since November 2024, which is also a 14-month low. Due to the significant drop in Bitcoin prices and high mining difficulty, miner income is particularly low; additionally, Bitcoin network hash rate has decreased for five consecutive cycles, compounded by the impact of winter storms in the Eastern United States, making miners' situation even more difficult. 2.

From 'eye-scanning' social interactions to Bitcoin becoming a national strategy, the industry is undergoing these key changes
In the past week, the excitement in the crypto space has been comparable to the New Year—ranging from 'real person' social black technology to Bitcoin being treated as a 'strategic asset' by nations, from regulatory easing to projects beginning to 'distribute dividends,' almost every piece of news is rewriting industry rules. We have broken down these key changes to help you clearly see the trends at a glance. On the technical front, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has once again made a significant move, planning to deeply bind OpenAI with Worldcoin, using the scannable iris Orb device to create a 'purely real person' social platform. The core logic is quite simple: to confirm that a user's identity is a real human being through iris recognition technology, rather than AI-generated fake accounts. The underlying intention is that as AI-generated content becomes increasingly realistic, with videos and audio fakes emerging endlessly, users are becoming more and more distrustful of the authenticity of online content. If this initiative can be realized, it is expected to completely reconstruct the trust system of social platforms, but the privacy protection issues that come with it also need to be continuously focused on.
Bitcoin breaks below last November's low and may test $70,000 as the cryptocurrency market faces multiple news-driven uncertainties.
On Thursday, the cryptocurrency market experienced a significant sell-off, with the price of Bitcoin dropping to its lowest point since November last year. Even though U.S. stocks and gold rebounded sharply from their lows, the cryptocurrency market did not keep pace, and the overall weakness of the industry was evident. This round of declines has put the market's support levels under pressure, and several analysts have provided their forecasts for future prices. Matt Mena, a cryptocurrency research strategist at 21Shares, stated that $84000 is the current key support level for Bitcoin; if it cannot hold, the next level will be the $80000 where buyers concentrated last November. If this level is also breached, the $75000 low from the tariff turmoil in April 2025 will come under pressure.

The 2026 Bear Market Prediction, Overturned by Wall Street Institutions
Recently, I've seen a lot of discussions, almost all leaning towards the opinion that the cryptocurrency market in 2026 will definitely be a bear market. Many people have already started planning to escape the peak, liquidate their assets, or even leave the market directly, fearing that if they hesitate, they will be trapped. To be honest, at first, I was also swayed by this panic sentiment. After all, over the past few years, everyone has become accustomed to the pattern of 'a bull and bear cycle every four years', always feeling that when the time comes, it should fall, and risk aversion is the hard truth. But after I read through the market outlook reports for 2026 released by the top 10 institutions on Wall Street over the past few months, word for word, my previous thoughts were completely overturned—the conclusions are much more counterintuitive than we imagined.
BTC falls below 90,000, fear spreads, should we panic next?
Recently, the cryptocurrency market has been a bit 'cold', as the previous upward momentum has completely slowed down, and the overall market is in a state of pressure and fluctuation. Bitcoin has fallen from its high point at the beginning of the month and is now fluctuating between $87,800 and $89,000, having dropped about 1.5% in a single day; Ethereum's performance is even worse, with a decline of 2.3%. Other major coins like SOL and XRP are also experiencing corrections, with none able to hold their ground. The total market capitalization of the entire cryptocurrency market is currently around $2.99 to $3.1 trillion, having dropped by 1% to 2% in the last 24 hours. More intuitively, the Fear and Greed Index is currently at 29 points, firmly in the 'Fear' zone—this means that most investors are on the sidelines, hesitant to enter the market, and some are even panic selling, driving market sentiment down to freezing point.
