International Gold Prices Break $5000/oz, Setting New Historical Highs
On the morning of January 26, Beijing time, international gold prices surged, breaking the $5000/oz mark. As of the time of publication, spot gold rose by 1.1% to $5043.093/oz, and COMEX gold rose by 1.13% to $5035.9/oz. Spot silver rose over 2%, and COMEX silver rose over 3%.
Regarding the future of gold, Goldman Sachs' latest report has raised its year-end gold price forecast from $4900/oz to $5400/oz due to increasing demand from private investors and central banks. Goldman Sachs expects that central banks around the world will purchase 60 tons of gold each month this year, and as the Federal Reserve lowers interest rates, the amount of gold purchased by ETFs will also increase, further boosting valuations. Huaxi Securities' latest research report predicts that gold prices may rise between 10% and 35% by 2026, while Jefferies Group has set an astonishing target of $6600/oz.
The White House's official Twitter account stated that under Trump's push, America has become the world's cryptocurrency capital. In response, the new chairman of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission, Mike Selig, remarked that there is no better place for entrepreneurship than the "world's cryptocurrency capital," and the CFTC is modernizing its rules and regulations to ensure that the future of cryptocurrency and on-chain finance is "Made in America."
Industry News
For most of the past three years, the so-called "Seven Giants" (Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Meta, Microsoft, Nvidia, and Tesla) have led the stock market higher. However, this trend reversed at the end of 2025, as Wall Street began to question the hundreds of billions of dollars these companies have invested in developing artificial intelligence and when these investments would yield returns. An index tracking the seven giants hit a record high on October 29, but since then, the stock prices of five of the seven giants have fallen and lagged behind the S&P 500 index. During this period, only Alphabet and Amazon, which saw nearly 20% increases, maintained their upward trajectory. Darrell Cronk, Chief Investment Officer of Wells Fargo Wealth and Investment Management, stated, "Tech stocks have turned into a 'performance speaks' story. If the big tech companies can continue to deliver good results, I believe funds will flow back into the tech sector." Next week, Microsoft, Apple, Tesla, and Meta will successively release their earnings reports, which will provide insights into the health of industries ranging from cloud computing and electronic devices to software and digital advertising.
Stablecoin Issuers' Ethereum On-Chain Revenue Soars: Cumulative $5 Billion in 2025
Token Terminal released data indicating that in 2025, stablecoin issuers generated approximately $5 billion in revenue from deploying stablecoins on Ethereum, with part of the revenue coming from the earnings of reserve assets that support the stablecoin supply. Ethereum remains the largest supply vehicle for most major stablecoin issuers. The total supply of stablecoins on Ethereum increased by approximately $50 billion throughout 2025, exceeding $180 billion by the fourth quarter. The issuers' revenue also grew, reaching approximately $1.4 billion in quarterly revenue in the fourth quarter.
Data: Bitcoin Exchange Internal Flow Drops to About 14,000 BTC, Hitting Lowest Level Since 2022
According to CryptoOnchain data, the total internal flow of Bitcoin exchanges has dropped to its lowest level since 2022, at approximately 14,000 BTC. This metric tracks the BTC liquidity within exchanges, reflecting operational activity and short-term distribution readiness. Its continued decline indicates a significant reduction in BTC flowing within exchanges, pointing to weakened market-making activity and liquidity tightening. Lower internal flow is typically associated with increased holding behavior, reduced arbitrage activity, thinner order books, and increased sensitivity to shocks. Currently, the Bitcoin market seems to be in a "liquidity pause" phase, which historically has been a precursor to significant directional movements after the market becomes active again.
Project News
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) confirmed that the national trust bank license application of World Liberty Financial (WLF) will undergo rigorous review according to current regulatory standards, in response to Senator Elizabeth Warren's previous request to pause the review, questioning the project for bringing billions of dollars in "paper wealth" to former President Trump and his children. OCC regulatory officer Jonathan Gould emphasized that WLFI's application will be subject to strict evaluation like any other application.
Privacy protocol Zama announced that after the public sale ended, the auction contracts have entered the settlement phase.

According to previous reports, Zama's public sale attracted 7,651 investors who submitted 17,446 bids, raising over $121 million.
Ethereum Treasury Company ETHZilla Spends $12.2 Million to Purchase Two Jet Engines

The engines are currently leased to a major airline. ETHZilla had previously sold at least $114.5 million worth of ETH over the past few months. In October and December of last year, the company sold $40 million and $74.5 million worth of ETH, respectively, for stock buybacks and debt redemption. ETHZilla has stated that it will shift towards asset tokenization and plans to collaborate with regulated brokerage firms to bring cash-flowing assets like auto loans and mortgages on-chain, with the first tokenized assets expected to launch in the first quarter of this year.

Regulatory Policies
The regulation of crypto assets in the United States is accelerating further. If the proposed crypto market structure bill is ultimately passed, it will clarify the regulatory authority of federal agencies over digital assets, making cryptocurrencies easier to manage, track, and trade, potentially attracting more investors and enhancing token value. It is reported that crypto platforms like Coinbase and Kraken plan to comply with a registration system, while stablecoin issuers such as Circle and Tether will need to meet bank-like regulatory requirements to ensure the safety of retail investors' assets. The subsequent processes include: obtaining approval from two Senate committees, passing a full Senate vote, returning to the House for final signing, and finally being signed by Trump. Overall, most crypto investors are unlikely to be affected in the short term, but in the long run, the bill is expected to provide a safer and more predictable trading environment while making compliance operations of crypto platforms more transparent.
Japan May Lift Ban on Spot Crypto ETFs by 2028, SBI and Nomura Have Advanced Product Preparations
The Financial Services Agency of Japan is studying the possibility of lifting the ban on spot cryptocurrency ETFs, such as Bitcoin, as early as 2028. The related plan includes amending the enforcement order of the Investment Trust Law to include virtual currencies in the category of "specific assets" that can be invested in investment trusts.
Reports indicate that large financial institutions such as SBI Holdings and Nomura Holdings have begun advancing the development of related ETF products. Once approved for listing by the Tokyo Stock Exchange, individual investors are expected to participate in cryptocurrency ETF investments through their securities accounts, similar to trading stocks or gold ETFs. Previous surveys have shown that at least six asset management firms are researching related products, covering both individual and institutional clients.
The Gwangju District Prosecutor's Office in South Korea recently confirmed the loss of a large amount of Bitcoin held in custody during a routine inspection of seized assets related to criminal cases. Although the specific amount lost has not been disclosed, insiders from the prosecutor's office revealed that the lost amount is approximately 70 billion won, equivalent to about 48.55 million dollars. It is reported that the agency lost the assets due to mistakenly logging into a phishing website while managing the custody asset keys through a mobile storage device. An internal investigation is currently underway by the South Korean prosecution, and the Gwangju District Prosecutor's Office stated that it cannot confirm the specific situation.
