I want to say thank you to everyone who reads the channel and stays here, regardless of whether you have been with us for a long time or joined us recently.
A strong, adult audience has gathered here, with which it is pleasant to move on and grow.
In the New Year, we will continue to move forward, share useful information and read the market movement as often as possible.
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has banned Russian athletes who are allowed in "neutral" status from participating in the parade at the opening ceremony of the 2026 Olympic Games in Italy, according to TASS. The decision caused hysteria in Russian social networks and comments, where it was called "degrading" and "discriminatory".
📉 Nifty Gateway, the prominent NFT marketplace owned by Gemini, is set to shut down on February 23. Users have been advised to begin withdrawing their funds and assets immediately.
The End of an Era In 2021, Nifty Gateway became synonymous with the NFT art boom. It was the primary stage for historic sales, most notably featuring works by the digital artist Beeple and other high profile creators who defined the "Gold Rush" of digital collectibles.
Market Context The closure reflects a broader cooling of the NFT sector. The numbers tell a stark story: • 2022: Market volume peaked at $50 billion. • 2025: Annual sales volume plummeted to just $5.5 billion.
What Happens Next? Moving forward, Gemini will integrate NFT sales directly through its native wallets rather than maintaining a standalone secondary marketplace. This shift signals a transition from speculative trading platforms to more utility focused storage and management.

"Discombobulator" is the name of the secret weapon of the United States, which excluded Venezuela's radars and missiles and helped the special forces kidnap Maduro, - Trump.
More than 200 million Americans are threatened by a powerful snowstorm that Trump called "historic," - ABC news.
A state of emergency has already been declared by at least 18 states, and more than 8,300 flights have been cancelled.
The cyclone is currently advancing towards Washington and New York and could cover most of the United States.
The Federal Emergency Services are moving the work to an enhanced mode: they are placing food supplies and special equipment in advance to respond to the effects of the storm.
After another local rebound, the road to the continuation of the asset correction now opens again, the final goal of which is the nearest significant level of support in the trading range of $145 - $147.
That's where I'll expect the price to be delivered quickly.
The head of BlackRock bypassed competitors in the struggle for the post of head of the Fed…
BlackRock Investment Director Rick Rider became the main favourite for the post of head of the Fed. According to Polymarket, his chances increased from 6% to 54% over the week.
As the Financial Times notes, the U.S. Treasury Department is already discussing his candidacy with major investors. The reader manages BlackRock's bond strategies with assets over $2.4 trillion.
Previously, White House adviser Kevin Hassett was considered a favourite, but investors fear that his appointment may weaken the independence of the Fed.
It’s easy to look at a $92.5 billion net worth and see a finished product. But the real story is in the timeline:
• Age 39: First Million. • Age 40: Founded Binance. • Age 48: A global industry leader.
CZ’s journey is a masterclass in the fact that speed matters less than direction. You aren't "behind" because you didn't hit it big in your 20s. Success doesn't have an expiration date it has a starting line that you can cross whenever you're ready.
The asset still looks as hopeless as possible. Buybacks are almost zero and sales pressure still significantly dominates, which actively pushes the price lower and lower.
After a small local rebound, I will expect the continuation of the correction and further sending of the price to the region of $0.06.
On January 28, a meeting of the Fed is scheduled on the decision with an interest rate.
With a probability of 90%, the rate will not be changed this time. Since we don't have any signs of this now.
But even if the rate was changed now, it would hardly bring any positive to the market. Let me remind you that the last 3 times this year when the rate was reduced, it had a negative impact on the market. After that, we observed a strong decline each time.
Therefore, at the current stage, this factor is unlikely to significantly push the market to resume growth, rather the opposite. My expectations from this event remain prioritised negative, this should further push the price down, thereby accelerating the current correction.
Privacy and compliance don’t have to conflict. @Dusk is building a blockchain where institutions and users can transact privately while still meeting regulatory standards. This is a key step toward real world adoption, and $DUSK is positioned right at the intersection of DeFi, RWAs, and compliant privacy tech. #dusk
There are no major changes in #bitcoin so far. After yesterday’s squeeze to $91,000, a correction followed, pushing the price back to the $89,000 area, where we are currently trading.
As usual, weekend volatility remains low. With the start of the new week, we are likely to see the continuation of the correction, potentially through short term bounces within the $89–90K range.
💰 Crypto investments have revived: $465.5 million in a week..
From January 17 to 24, 2026, 26 transactions totalling $465.5 million were held on the market.
The main interest of investors fell on CeFi and blockchain services, and among the most notable cases stood out IPO BitGo and the Superstate round for $82+ million.
Separately, another $16.5 million was recorded in token sales.
😵 The White House published an AI-generated picture of Trump with a penguin in Greenland, but, as we can see, they forgot about an important nuance - these birds are not on the island…
The Pentagon has published a new "National Defence Strategy": now China is not the main threat.
📍The United States is changing the priorities, and even reducing the threat to China.
📍The main emphasis is now on the Defence of the continental part of the country and the Western Hemisphere, in particular the Panama Canal, Greenland and the Gulf of Mexico.
📍The Pentagon shifts the main responsibility for supporting Ukraine to European countries, because it is primarily in their interests.
📍The Russian Federation is described as a "persistent but manageable threat" to NATO's eastern flank, which suffers from demographic and economic difficulties.
📍At the same time, it will be noted that Moscow retains reserves of military and industrial power, as well as determination to wage a protracted w@r.
📍China is also no longer considered a major threat to the United States, but its conterrence will continue through diplomacy and increased Defence in the Pacific Ocean.
