Wu Shuo learned that, according to CryptoQuant analysts, BTC may be entering the most frustrating phase of its cycle. Price action is often dominated by short-term fluctuations, while the broader market remains sideways, creating a psychologically exhausting environment for participants. This often leads investors to lose interest, reduce their exposure, or simply exit the market. Additionally, the long-term holder SOPR is beginning to show signs that long-term investors are also experiencing losses.

QCP analysis indicates that BTC has shown resilience after geopolitical shocks, with prices rebounding to around $70,000. Long-term holders have significantly accumulated in the $60,000 to $70,000 range. On the macro front, the market has entered a "stagflation" pricing mode. G7 and IEA plan to coordinate the release of 300 million to 400 million barrels of strategic oil reserves, with the scale expected to set a record to counter oil price volatility. In the options market, implied volatility has fallen back to the mid-50% range, but risk reversals remain negative, reflecting that participant

Wu said that Lido announced on Twitter that Aave's oracle was affected yesterday due to abnormal pricing, causing some users to be liquidated. The affected users will be fully compensated. This incident was caused by an incorrect price range setting for wstETH:USD by the Aave CAPO oracle yesterday, and no bad debt was incurred. Lido emphasized that this event is unrelated to the safety of the wstETH underlying asset, the Lido protocol, or its financial products (stRATEGY, GGV), ensuring user funds are safe.

In February 2026, the number of monthly independent stablecoin transfer addresses on BNB Chain reached 15.1 million, ranking first among all public blockchains. Although BNB Chain holds only about 5% of the global stablecoin supply, its higher asset turnover rate allows the network to handle nearly 40% of the global stablecoin transaction volume. In retail scenarios, this "high turnover" characteristic is particularly evident, with data showing that 82% of stablecoin transfer amounts on BNB Chain are less than $1,000.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin responded in Chinese on X regarding the security issues of combining AI Agents with cryptocurrencies. Vitalik pointed out that in unpredictable adversarial environments, ensuring security, decentralization, and privacy still face significant challenges, such as attackers potentially embedding "Jailbreak" instructions in ENS profiles to trick AI agents reading the profiles into transferring all user tokens. Vitalik believes that while requiring manual confirmation for each large transaction and providing easily understandable transaction explanations is curre

According to the latest Forbes 2026 Global Billionaires List, Donald Trump's current net worth is estimated at $6.5 billion, an increase of $1.4 billion from a year ago. He ranks 645th among the 3,428 billionaires worldwide, up from 700th in 2025. The key driver behind this increase in wealth is his breakthrough in the crypto business, especially through the sale of cryptocurrency tokens issued by World Liberty Financial, founded by his family in September 2024, which netted approximately $550 million over the past year.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin commented on the latest round of Gitcoin's predictive funding challenge (GG23), stating that the deep funding model is continuously advancing. However, he suggested that developer Devansh Mehta should further optimize its design to meet the needs of the "chaotic era." Vitalik pointed out that although this model has made progress in ensuring elite management, avoiding excessive equalization, and leveraging AI while respecting human autonomy, future efforts must ensure that design details and funding sources are compatible with fluctuating democratic mechanis

CryptoQuant's latest report shows that Ethereum network activity has reached record highs across multiple metrics, but ETH prices have still fallen about 30% over the past six months. Data indicates that by February 2026, daily active addresses on Ethereum approached 2 million, surpassing the peak of the 2021 bull market, with smart contract calls exceeding 40 million per day.

According to Decrypt, the basketball card trading marketplace Basketball Fun, co-founded by NBA star Tristan Thompson and the Base network, has announced its closure. The project was developed by Web3 sports startup Meet the People and originally planned to revolutionize sports card trading by minting digital collectibles on Coinbase's L2 network Base.

According to Bloomberg, Chinese businessman Chen Zhi, who is suspected of operating a transnational "pig-butchering" scam network, was extradited back to China in January. However, his lawyer recently filed a motion in the U.S. Federal Court to revoke the U.S. government's seizure of approximately 127,271 Bitcoins. The lawyer claims that the charges are "clearly incorrect" and questions the connection between these Bitcoins and fraud or money laundering activities. Previously, the U.S. Department of Justice accused Chen Zhi of running a transnational scam and gambling network and froze a large

According to Decrypt, IBM experts warn that the rise of quantum computing poses a more urgent challenge to encrypted communication software outside of Bitcoin, such as Signal and Threema. Experts point out that while the quantum threat to Bitcoin is often discussed, the "collect first, decrypt later" attack risk faced by communication software is more direct, as attackers can intercept and store encrypted messages now and decrypt them once the technology matures in the future. In contrast, the Bitcoin network can upgrade by integrating quantum-resistant signature schemes to defend against sign

According to the latest market analysis from Coinbase Institutional, the Short-Term Holder Profit Ratio (SOPR) indicator shows that market resilience is strengthening. The SOPR indicator is used to measure whether recent buyers are selling assets at a profit or a loss, which helps identify whether new entrants are panic selling at a loss, thereby clearing out "profit-taking hands" and resetting spot positions. The report points out that since late February 2026, both BTC and ETH short-term holder SOPR have rebounded, indicating that recent spot demand has been sufficient to absorb selling pres
