The recent drop below key support confirms sellers' control, and the current rebound appears corrective rather than impulsive.

Billions in BTC shorts are stacked ā Here's why it matters right now
Right now, billions of dollars in leveraged short positions $BTC are sitting just above the price ā and this creates a powerful setup for a short-term rally if the momentum reverses. This is not speculation. It's mechanics. How short liquidations create explosive movements When traders short Bitcoin using leverage, they borrow BTC and sell it, betting that the price will go down. But leverage comes with liquidation levels ā prices at which exchanges forcibly close positions to prevent losses from exceeding collateral.
Diving into Vanar Chain: the stack approach that makes Web3 invisible
Vanar Chain is presented as a project that tries to solve adoption through the front door rather than the back door, as the entire design story goes back to an idea that is easy to understand even for someone who does not live in crypto, namely that the next wave of users will come through experiences they already love, and these experiences must feel seamless, predictable, and familiar while the blockchain part remains discreetly powerful underneath.
$XAU /USD is likely to trade in a range near $4,950 to $5,050, with direction dictated by inflation and employment reports in the United States. A sustained move above $5,050 to $5,100 would strengthen the bullish momentum, while a failure could keep prices oscillating with high volatility. In the medium term: Structural factors of central bank demand, diversification of real assets, and flows into safe havens still support a positive bias for gold until 2026, even as short-term corrections persist. #GoldSilverRally
šØ BREAKING: GOLD & SILVER HAVE ADDED ~$3.3 TRILLION IN MARKET VALUE IN <3 DAYS š„
Precious metals are on fire this week: ⢠Gold just climbed above $5,000 per ounce, extending its rally amid a softer US dollar and buyers seeking safe havens. ⢠Silver surged above $80 per ounce ā a dramatic run for the industrial-precious metal.
Together, these moves have pushed trillions back into the global metals market in a historically fast rally.
(Note: Some earlier reports suggested extreme volatility and large āmarket cap erosion,ā but the recent rebound has restored much of that lost valuation.)
āø»
š§ Why This is Happening
š² Weaker US Dollar: A softer dollar has made gold and silver cheaper for global investors, boosting demand and prices.
š”ļø Safe-Haven Demand: With macro risk on tradersā radars ā including geopolitical tensions and rate expectations ā capital flows into traditional store-of-value assets like gold and silver.
š Rate Cut Expectations: Expectations of future Federal Reserve rate cuts tend to lift precious metal prices because gold and silver donāt pay interest but benefit from lower opportunity cost.
āø»
š What This Means for Markets
ā Gold above $5,000/oz is historically rare and signals high risk-off behavior or broad diversification demand. ā Silver surge is supported both by safe-haven flow and strong industrial demand. ā Traders often rotate capital to metals when inflation uncertainty, weak currencies, or financial risk spikes.

Gold Reclaims the $5,000 Level - Why Crypto Investors/Users Should Pay Attention
Gold ($XAU) has once again captured the attention of the global market after reclaiming the level of $5,000/oz, a milestone that signals increasing uncertainty in the global financial system. Although gold and cryptocurrencies are often compared as competing stores of value, movements in the gold market can reveal deeper macroeconomic trends that cryptocurrency investors cannot afford to ignore. The recent activity in the market shows that gold is rebounding strongly after a volatile two-week experience, with several analysts already pointing to inflationary concerns, geopolitical tensions, and central bank demand as the key drivers behind the rally. Many large financial institutions anticipate that gold will reach the level of $6,000 by 2026 as investors seek protection against economic instability and currency risks.

Tether freezes over 500 million dollars related to an investigation into illegal betting Tether has frozen over half a billion dollars in digital assets at the request of Turkish authorities as part of an investigation into illegal online betting and money laundering. Prosecutors in Istanbul had previously seized around 460 million euros (544 million dollars) in assets linked to Veysel Sahin, subsequently confirming that the cryptocurrency company involved was Tether, the issuer of the USDt stablecoin. Tether stated that it had acted based on information provided by law enforcement and was complying with local regulations, similar to its cooperation with agencies such as the DOJ and the FBI. Turkey has already seized over 1 billion dollars in assets through related investigations. By the end of 2025, stablecoin issuersāprimarily Tether and Circleāhad blacklisted around 5,700 wallets holding about 2.5 billion dollars, most of which contained USDT. Tether claims to have supported over 1,800 investigations in 62 countries, leading to 3.4 billion dollars of frozen USDT. Despite this cooperation, USDt remains under scrutiny due to past links with money laundering and sanctions evasion cases. In the fourth quarter of 2025, the market capitalization of USDt reached a record level of about 187.3 billion dollars, with 24.8 million active monthly wallets and a quarterly transfer volume reaching 4.4 trillion dollars, setting new on-chain highs. @PATRICIA B-M @ABRA_PBMOfficialFans @Tether USDT
Bitcoin started trading in February around $80,000, with large holders cautiously adding positions while retail investors were leaving the market. A few days later, the price dropped to around $60,000 $ on February 5, triggering one of the most significant capitulation events in Bitcoin's history. Following this sell-off, on-chain data now indicates a wide shift towards accumulation across almost all investor cohorts as participants begin to see value at lower price levels. Glassnode's Accumulation Trend Score - which measures buying strength across portfolio sizes based on entity size and BTC added over the last 15 days - has climbed to 0.68, surpassing the neutral threshold of 0.5 and signaling renewed accumulation across the market for the first time since late November, a period that previously aligned with a local bottom near $80,000. Aggressive buying on dips mainly comes from wallets holding between 10 and 100 BTC, especially as prices approached $60,000. While it remains uncertain whether the ultimate market bottom has been established, data suggests that investors are once again viewing Bitcoin as an attractive price after a decline of more than 50% from its all-time high in October. @Bitcoin @PATRICIA B-M #bitcoin

In discussions about Web3, privacy is often presented as a secret. But for financial institutions, privacy is not about hiding activities ā it is about controlling who sees what, and when. This distinction is critical, but often overlooked. Traditional financial systems already operate with layered visibility. Regulators, auditors, and counterparties each have access to the data they need, without exposing everything publicly. Most blockchains struggle to replicate this balance. Public ledgers expose too much, while fully private systems raise regulatory concerns.
