I firmly believe that winter is often the starting point for the biggest rebound.

The market is in panic over the apocalyptic theories of AI, yet the obvious consensus often hides traps.

During this week in East Eight Zone time, the **SEC exemption order, the latest statements from Federal Reserve officials, and exchange pricing data** have created a buzz, with the cryptocurrency market caught between regulation and capital. On one side, the SEC has issued an exemption order to WisdomTree's tokenized fund, symbolizing a "limited opening" of traditional finance towards on-chain assets; on the other side, the Federal Reserve acknowledges that it is becoming harder to read the economy under the impact of AI, making the outlook for monetary policy increasingly unclear, which has led to fluctuations in the valuation of risk assets.

This giant, which once rewrote global payments and created a generation of entrepreneurial outlaws, is no longer glorious. Just as it fell to the bottom, the hunters have already caught the scent of blood.

This week in East Eight Time Zone, a governance conflict surrounding Bitcoin holdings and share buybacks has brought **Empery Digital** (both the company and event details are unverified information) into the spotlight. On one side is **Tice P. Brown**, who claims to be a shareholder (the shareholder identity and actions are also unverified), and on the other side is the management team, which adheres to a long-term holding strategy.

This news adds a new dimension of income and security to the originally static protocol treasury assets. This action was clearly incorporated into the "Sustainable Treasury Strategy" proposed in 2025 and is seen as a transition point from simply holding coins to actively operating assets.

Just when you thought the plunge in Bitcoin had reached a pause, the "smart money" in the options market quietly set up heavy guards in a deeper abyss. While most retail investors were still focused on whether the $70,000 mark could be reclaimed, professional traders had already shifted their gaze downwards, digging trenches in the territory between $58,000 and $62,000. This is no longer a simple battle between bulls and bears, but a defensive war about survival.
