Whale (0x8da6b) has opened a new long position in the bullish market, holding multiple tokens such as BTC, XRP, HYPE, XPL, and FARTCOIN. The overall unrealized profit is good, but FARTCOIN is slightly in a loss.

Entering 2026, global market risk appetite has significantly improved, with U.S. stocks quickly recovering from December last year’s decline. The macroeconomic sentiment has also improved, pushing the crypto market back to a critical crossroads. Amid the debate of “holding on or exiting early,” on-chain data for Ethereum (ETH) shows clear signals leaning towards a bullish market.
The latest data indicates that the number of Ethereum validators exiting the queue has dropped to about 15,000, a sharp decline from the peak of 2.6 million in mid-September 2025, a decrease of over 99%. This change suggests that during previous price corrections and market volatility, Ethereum stakers did not panic and exit en masse; instead, they chose to continue locking their assets, demonstrating high confidence in ETH’s medium- to long-term prospects.

Entering 2026, the price performance of Dogecoin (DOGE) has significantly rebounded, with a nearly 20% increase over the past week, once again becoming a focal point in the crypto market. As market sentiment improves, on-chain data also begins to show bullish signals, with some analysts believing that DOGE is in an important medium- to long-term buy zone.
Joao Wedson, founder of the crypto data analysis platform Alphractal, pointed out that based on the on-chain indicator CVDD (Cumulative Value Destruction Days), the price of Dogecoin has reached a critical area that has historically seen strong buying activity. The CVDD indicator measures the economic weight and long-term value of tokens on the chain and is often used to identify deeply undervalued market zones. Historically, whenever DOGE approaches this zone, it tends to experience significant rebounds.

Ethereum is standing at a critical juncture in the history of blockchain development. Recently, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin stated that the network is approaching a decisive turning point. This judgment is not based on short-term narratives but stems from years of ongoing research and engineering implementation in scalability, decentralization, and security. With a series of core upgrades underway, Ethereum is moving from the phase of “continuous optimization” into a new cycle with genuine global scalability.
Among these, the official launch of PeerDAS is regarded as a key milestone in Ethereum’s scalability roadmap. This upgrade redefines the data availability mechanism, allowing Rollups to no longer need to permanently store all data on-chain, but instead to distribute it more efficiently among nodes. This not only significantly reduces the operational costs of Rollups but also lowers the hardware requirements for nodes, increasing throughput while maintaining the openness of Ethereum’s decentralized network. For the Ethereum ecosystem, which heavily relies on Rollups, PeerDAS lays a solid foundation for long-term scalability.

Zcash (ZEC) has experienced a rapid rebound but has once again entered a high-level consolidation. Over the past week, as traders actively reduced risk exposure, market liquidity has significantly decreased, and overall sentiment has gradually shifted to a defensive stance. Against the backdrop of mainstream altcoins generally under pressure, the privacy coin sector faces particularly pronounced stress, with ZEC's movement reflecting this change.
From a price performance perspective, ZEC once surged above $530 in late December but failed to sustain the rally and quickly retreated. As of now, ZEC's price hovers around $493, with the candlestick bodies noticeably narrowing, indicating a tug-of-war between bulls and bears. On the technical indicators front, the MACD has become more flat and started to decline, suggesting that short-term bullish momentum is weakening, and the market is more likely to enter a consolidation phase rather than a direct reversal.

In 2025, Hyperliquid achieved significant growth, with user numbers surpassing 1.4 million, and trading volume and TVL increasing substantially. Key milestones include the launch of HyperEVM.

Following the news that Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro was successfully detained by the US military, World Liberty Financial (WLFI), associated with the Donald Trump camp, quickly became the market focus. The stock price surged by 23% in a single day, sparking a new wave of speculation intertwined with crypto and political narratives.
From a price performance perspective, WLFI's short-term rally has slowed somewhat, but the overall structure remains relatively strong. As of now, WLFI has risen slightly by 0.70%, with a trading price of approximately $0.172. However, it is important to note that trading volume has significantly declined, with 24-hour trading volume dropping by 67% to about $128 million, indicating that market sentiment has become cautious after the rapid surge.

As MicroStrategy (now renamed Strategy)’s mNAV (market value/net asset value) premium drops to approximately 1.03–1.04 times, this “Bitcoin-native company” is standing at a critical inflection point. The valuation buffer that once supported its stock price to significantly outperform Bitcoin has almost disappeared, implying that Strategy’s future expansion will no longer depend solely on Bitcoin’s upward movement, but rather on whether the capital markets are still willing to continue funding its complex Bitcoin financing structure.
Over the past two years, Strategy has traded at a long-term premium of over 2x to its mNAV, enabling it to issue common stock, convertible bonds, and preferred shares at low cost, then use the proceeds to increase Bitcoin holdings, creating a positive flywheel. But now, with the premium compressed to near parity, this model has clearly slowed down. As of now, the company holds about 670,000 Bitcoins, worth over $63 billion, but the disconnect between its market value and Bitcoin assets has sparked fierce debate over whether it is “undervalued” or whether the “structural risk pricing has been completed.”

Cardano (ADA) has recently performed well, with a total increase of nearly 21% over the past 7 days and a further rise of about 7% within 24 hours, making it one of the strongest mainstream cryptocurrencies this week. On the surface, the price trend appears healthy, with multiple technical signals continuously improving. However, further analysis reveals that the intrinsic momentum of the current rally is weakening, and it may enter a range-bound consolidation phase in the short term.
From the 12-hour chart perspective, ADA is still operating within a clear upward trend structure. The 20-period EMA is approaching the 50-period EMA, and if a valid golden cross forms, it will further strengthen the medium-term bullish structure, which is an important technical support for the current bulls. However, the signals released by momentum indicators are more cautious. Recently, the price trend has shown some weakness, while the RSI continues to rise, forming a hidden bearish divergence. This pattern usually does not indicate a trend reversal but suggests that upward momentum is cooling down, and the market needs time to digest the previous gains.

Foresight News Report: According to the latest data from Polymarket, there is a 91% probability that the FDV on Opinion will exceed $500 million on the day after launch, a 65% probability it will exceed $1 billion, and a 36% probability it will exceed $2 billion. Currently, the trading volume of this prediction market exceeds $400,000.

XRP price is on a strong upward trend, with a single-day increase of 12.3%, pushing its market capitalization to remain the fourth largest in the cryptocurrency market. As the market warms up at the start of 2026, XRP's performance has once again become a market focus. Diverging signals from technical analysts and institutional funds have led to clear differences in its outlook.
Market data shows that XRP has gained nearly 30% in January, with the price once reaching $2.38, and its market cap surpassing $140 billion, overtaking BNB. Against the backdrop of the overall cryptocurrency market cap increasing by 8.2% at the beginning of the year, XRP's performance is particularly outstanding, reflecting a rebound in risk appetite among investors.
