🇺🇸WASHINGTON D.C. (26/01/2026) – A apenas quatro dias do prazo final para evitar uma paralisação do governo (shutdown), o Congresso americano vive um impasse crítico. Democratas no Senado estão bloqueando o pacote de orçamento do Departamento de Segurança Interna (DHS), condicionando qualquer nova verba para a agência de imigração ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) a reformas drásticas de conduta.
O estopim da crise foi a morte de Renee Good, uma cidadã americana de 37 anos, baleada por um agente do ICE em Minneapolis no início deste mês. O incidente provocou indignação nacional e levou os líderes democratas a exigirem "guardrails" imediatos, como o uso obrigatório de câmeras corporais e mandados judiciais para operações da agência.
A Câmara, controlada pelos republicanos, já aprovou um projeto que mantém o financiamento do ICE focado na segurança de fronteira, ignorando os pedidos de reforma. No entanto, os democratas no Senado, necessários para aprovar a lei final, recusam-se a avançar. Eles argumentam que o ICE já possui US$ 75 bilhões em fundos suplementares aprovados anteriormente e que cortar novas verbas agora é uma medida necessária para forçar a responsabilização pela morte de Good, sem paralisar operações essenciais.
Sem um acordo até a meia-noite de sexta-feira (30), partes cruciais do governo federal ficarão sem fundos.

Here’s what’s moving and shaking in crypto right now:
📊 Bitcoin (BTC) – Still the king of crypto dominance. After recent geopolitical and market sentiment pressures, BTC has been trading lower around major support levels near ~$92K, showing volatility but attracting attention from long-term holders
🔥 Ethereum (ETH) – Holding steady above ~$3K as traders look at resilience in DeFi and app activity ahead of potential catalysts.
🐶 Shiba Inu (SHIB) – Hit a significant price point in recent sessions, stirring renewed community interest among meme-coin traders.
📈 Altcoins in Focus: Solana (SOL), XRP, BNB and others remain top picks among analysts for potential growth beyond blue-chip tokens.
🔥 Meme Coin Buzz:
• The “Mr. Beast crypto coin” trend is exploding in search interest and social chatter, signalling huge speculative activity.
• Meme tokens still attract volume, but experts remind traders to be cautious — meme markets are volatile and hype-driven.
📌 Market Sentiment:
While BTC and ETH retain dominance, traders are watching narrative plays (AI-related tokens, community-driven projects, and new launches) for short-term spikes.
💡 TL;DR: Big coins showing mixed moves, meme coins trending with influencer buzz, and traders are eyeing altcoin setups for breakout plays — but volatility remains high.

📊 Крипторинок зазнав зниження, при цьому Індекс страху та жадоби вказує на стан страху серед інвесторів. Це падіння збігається з зростаючими побоюваннями щодо потенційної торгової війни, особливо після того, як президент Трамп пригрозив 100% митом на канадські товари.
💰 $BTC впав до $88,700, тоді як ефір $ETH знизився до $2,930, поряд з іншими альткоїнами, такими як $DOGE та #Solana , які також зазнали зниження більш ніж на 1%.
⚙️ Очікуване рішення Федеральної резервної системи щодо процентних ставок є ще одним фактором, що впливає на ринок, з очікуваннями, що ставки залишаться в межах 3.50% і 3.75%.
📅 Оголошення ФРС, заплановане на середу, може суттєво вплинути на ринкові настрої, особливо якщо воно натякне на майбутнє зниження ставок. Тим часом трейдери також уважно стежать за майбутніми корпоративними звітами від великих компаній, включаючи Apple та Microsoft, які можуть ще більше вплинути на динаміку ринку. Взаємодія торгових напружень, монетарної політики та корпоративної продуктивності створює складний ландшафт для криптоінвесторів.

■ What the data shows (surface level)
Ethereum just printed record on-chain activity:
– ~2.9M transactions in a week
– Daily active addresses jumped from ~600k → ~1.3M
– Avg. transaction fee stuck at $0.10–$0.20 (historically low)
On paper, this looks like a strong recovery signal.
■ Why fees are so low (the real upgrade story)
This isn’t magic — it’s engineering.
Recent upgrades massively expanded Ethereum’s data throughput:
– Pectra (May 2025): Blob capacity doubled
– Fusaka (Dec 2025): PeerDAS reduced validator load
– Blob-only fork (Jan 2026): Even higher blob limits
Result: more block space → cheaper transactions → ETH mainnet becomes usable again for payments, RWAs, prediction markets, and stablecoins.
■ The uncomfortable truth: activity ≠ value
Despite higher usage, value metrics are lagging.
– Metcalfe Ratio keeps falling
– Network adoption score sits at historical Level 1
– Market cap growth is not matching user growth
That’s a red flag: not all activity is “real demand.”
■ What’s inflating the numbers? Address poisoning
Low gas fees revived an old scam — at industrial scale.
How it works:
– Attackers send tiny “dust” transfers from look-alike addresses
– These spoofed addresses appear in victims’ transaction history
– Users later copy the wrong address → funds gone
Key signals from researchers:
– ~67% of new addresses received <$1 stablecoin as their first tx
– Native ETH transfers (21,000 gas) ≈ 50% of all txs
– ~80% of activity driven by stablecoin dusting, not real usage
Estimated damage so far:
– 116 victims
– ~$740k lost
– One single loss: ~$509k
Low fees flipped the scam economics from “unviable” to “profitable.”
■ The bigger takeaway (important)
Scaling worked. Ethereum did become cheaper and faster.
But cheap block space cuts both ways.
If UX and wallet-level protections don’t improve,
📉 “Record activity” can mask automated abuse
📈 Scams can look like adoption
■ Bottom line
Ethereum’s infrastructure is stronger than ever — no doubt.
But investors should separate:
■ Real user growth
■ Economic value creation
■ Artificial activity driven by automation
High transactions alone are no longer a bullish signal.
Context matters more than headlines.
