BlockBeats news, on January 30, according to on-chain data and historical announcements, tweet content shows that Binance's '1 billion USD SAFU fund' was transferred from the old SAFU fund address to the new SAFU wallet address mentioned in the announcement (0x420) one year ago (December 12, 2024), all in USDC, and there has been no action yet.

According to the official announcement, Binance announced in January 2022 (during the initial to mid-stage of the previous bear market) that its SAFU fund address held a total of 1 billion USD, consisting of BNB, BTC, USDT, and TUSD at that time. As the market further declined, Binance announced on November 9, 2022 (the bottom of the previous bear market) that the market downturn had reduced the value of its SAFU fund holdings to 735 million USD, and it would increase its asset holdings again to bring the fund size back to 1 billion USD (700 million USD in BUSD and BNB, 300 million USD in BTC). After that, the market gradually warmed up, and Binance announced in April 2024 that it would convert all funds in the SAFU fund to USDC to maintain stability.

summary

Bitcoin's price remains near the key on-chain cost price, and this support level is being tested. Sufficient market confidence is needed to prevent further structural weakness.

• Short-term holders are emotionally vulnerable. If prices fail to recover above the key break-even point, recent buyers may face renewed selling pressure.

Overall, holders remain conservative in their behavior. This suggests that the market is currently in a phase of accumulating shares, rather than an expansionary upward trend.

BlockBeats news, January 30, according to koreatimes, Binance is accelerating its expansion in Korea through its holding company’s local cryptocurrency trading platform GOPAX to support institutional adoption and build payment infrastructure by 2026.

Binance Asia-Pacific head SB Seker said in a video interview with (Korea Times) on Friday: "Last year, 23% of the global (crypto market) growth came from institutional adoption. We believe that if Korea keeps up with (regulatory) developments, the growth trend will be similar, and possibly even stronger."

In addition to core services such as spot trading and digital asset products, Binance is also committed to building infrastructure for institutional fund management and cross-border stablecoin settlement. Seker anticipates that once regulations are clarified, Korean companies will start to allocate crypto assets on their balance sheets and diversify risks across different trading venues. Payments are another key area. Although cryptocurrency payments and remittances remain restricted for local users in Korea, Binance is exploring partnerships with licensed local payment service providers to offer inbound transaction services for overseas visitors—Seker hopes this move can set a good precedent for regulators.

BlockBeats News, January 30, BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes posted on social media that the liquidity of the US dollar has decreased by about $300 billion over the past few weeks, mainly due to an increase of $200 billion in the US Treasury General Account (TGA). The government may be raising cash reserves to ensure spending in preparation for a potential shutdown. Against this backdrop, the decline of Bitcoin is not surprising, as it synchronizes with the contraction of US dollar liquidity.

Editor's note: When the cryptocurrency industry truly touches the financial core areas of bank deposits and payments, the conflict is no longer a battle of ideas but a battle of interests. This article reveals the essence of the game between banks and cryptocurrency platforms behind the (CLARITY Act) through the confrontation between Brian Armstrong and Wall Street, which is not only about the legality of stablecoin profits but also about who will dominate the rule-making power of the next generation financial system.

BlockBeats news, on January 30, according to monitoring by HyperInsight, in the past 24 hours, precious metals maintained their popularity on Hyperliquid, with both gold and silver contracts entering the platform's top ten in trading volume.

BlockBeats news, January 30, cryptocurrency market analyst Axel Adler Jr. stated, 'The data on the dominance of Bitcoin futures long and short liquidations' reached 97%, and the 30-day moving average rose to 31.4%. This means that almost all forced liquidations come from long positions, and buyers have been under systemic pressure for the past month.

Oscillator extreme values usually synchronize with peaks of forced selling and may bring short-term stabilization. However, in the absence of other confirmation signals, this is not an indication of a trend reversal—at least to form a sustainable 'local bottom', we need to see the oscillator returning to zero or the 30-day moving average declining.

BlockBeats news, on January 30, according to GMGN monitoring, the Meme coin BULLA on the BSC chain suddenly began to rise since yesterday, with a market value rising from a low of about 31 million USD to over 100 million USD, currently reported at 118 million USD, with a current price of about 0.118 USD, a 24-hour increase of 76%, and a 24-hour trading volume of about 72 million USD.

On the contrary, if Bitcoin breaks through $85,000, the cumulative short liquidation intensity on mainstream CEX will reach 778 million.

On the platform, AI agents autonomously post, comment, like, and interact, forming a self-governing community, while humans mainly act as observers.

BlockBeats message, on January 30, Carson Group global macro strategist Sonu Varghese stated that if the nominee for Federal Reserve Chair is indeed Waller, we could ultimately end up with a Federal Reserve that is somewhat hawkish. Kevin Waller has traditionally been a hawk, although he has recently been discussing rate cuts. If he enters the Federal Reserve with a strong push for significant rate cuts, he may not have much credibility in convincing others that further cuts are necessary. We might even face a severely divided committee that fundamentally does not cut rates. In the short term, a potentially hawkish Federal Reserve may increase market volatility.
