【Market Trends】A leading exchange officially launched perpetual contracts for precious metals on January 8, offering initial products in gold and silver. Subsequently, it announced the launch of the DeepNode project on January 9. These initiatives further diversify the platform's trading categories and attract the attention of traditional financial asset participants.

【Derivatives Sentiment】Options market data shows continued bullish bets. Over-the-counter trading leaders believe that Q1 may see a relief rebound, indicating that market participants remain optimistic about short-term trends.

【On-Chain Performance】A certain public blockchain's blockchain fee ranking surged to first place in the past 24 hours, reflecting increased ecosystem activity. Meanwhile, ETH staking continues to grow—one staking platform has accumulated 9.36 million ETH, worth $2.87 billion, reaching a new high.

【Policy Developments】The U.S. Department of the Treasury stated that the government has begun systematically incorporating law enforcement-seized Bitcoin into strategic reserves, a significant signal. Domestically, the Shanghai Second Intermediate People's Court clarified that holding coins or trading cryptocurrencies generally does not constitute illegal business, providing legal clarity for crypto asset holders.

【Technical Perspective】Ethereum's founder emphasized that Ethereum is like Linux, providing a home for users seeking autonomy while also serving the public and enterprises, embodying its open and inclusive design philosophy.

The US government is also starting to accumulate Bitcoin, this is truly the official recognition. Is the DeepNode project reliable? Does anyone know? 9.36 million ETH staked? That scale is indeed frightening. Precious metals contracts are now online, traditional finance people are finally entering the market. Is the Q1 rebound real or just another wave of retail investors getting cut? That Linux analogy, Vitalik really dares to say it. Is it really that inclusive? This court ruling in Shanghai is actually very important; at least holding coins is no longer considered illegal. Ranking first in fees, is the ecosystem really taking off or is it just because there are more users?

936 million ETH staked? The real key is the capital game behind this number. The launch of precious metals contracts indeed attracts traditional financial players, but where is the real liquidity? The U.S. Treasury accumulating Bitcoin, in simple terms, is institutions playing with the distribution of chips. Q1 relief rebound? It depends on the distribution of chips on the top-ranked public chain by on-chain fees. Policy favorable news does not necessarily mean market favorable conditions; retail investors are about to be harvested again.

The US government is starting to accumulate Bitcoin, this is really getting a bit outrageous. ETH staking at 936 million, this number sounds crazy, who is pushing it? Precious metals contracts? Exchanges really dare to list everything, clear idea of earning fees. Q1 rebound? I just want to ask if it's a real rebound or just another wave of selling. Ethereum is like Linux haha, Vitalik's analogy is actually quite interesting. What is DeepNode, another air project or is there really something? Shanghai court's move, finally some legal certainty, which is beneficial to us. What does the first place in on-chain fees indicate? Everyone is trading wildly or the ecosystem is really booming. Holding coins is not illegal, this should have been clarified long ago. This round of market is starting to hype again, right?

Gold and silver are now on the chain, now the traditional finance bigwigs also have to enter the circle --- Is Q1 rebound stable? How do I see this wave of contract loosening and another round of profit-taking --- ETH staking 936 million tokens, this scale is a bit outrageous --- The US government hoarding Bitcoin, now that's really confidence in it --- Vitalik's analogy with Linux this time is okay, but it's a bit too idealistic --- What is DeepNode? Which new coin is it to scam the leeks again --- What does being the number one on-chain fee mean? It means starting to block the network --- Holding coins is no longer illegal, this news should have come earlier --- Precious metals contracts are online, exchanges are really competing with traditional finance --- Staking scale hits a new high, Ethereum is blessed from above

Here comes another new trick to cut leeks *** Precious metals contracts? This is bringing over the traditional financial approach *** Q1 rebound? Wake up everyone, after the rebound it still has to fall *** ETH staking hits a new high, just don’t know when it will be withdrawable... *** Bro, the US Treasury is stockpiling Bitcoin, this signal is a bit intense *** What exactly is DeepNode, another air project? *** Gas fees taking the lead? This is aiming to clog the entire chain *** Comparing Ethereum to Linux, Vitalik’s analogy is quite interesting *** Personal holding of coins is now legal, domestic friends can rest assured *** Bullish bets are back again, don’t TMD, it might just be another big scam
