Michael Saylor has spent nearly $50 billion over the last 5 years buying Bitcoin, and now he’s sitting underwater.
Adjusted for inflation, he’s down around $10 billion.
The bigger issue is that a large part of these BTC purchases were made using borrowed money and that debt has to be paid back. This is where things can get very messy, very fast.
I talked about this more than a month ago and warned about the risks. People like this create centralization, which goes against Bitcoin’s original purpose.
When leverage and concentration build up too much, the system becomes fragile.
I’ll keep you updated over the next few months.
And when I start buying Bitcoin again, I’ll say it here publicly.
A lot of people are going to regret ignoring these warnings.
Ethereum price is showing signs of a macro bottom 🟢 Right now ETH is forming an Adam & Eve reversal pattern this pattern usually means sellers are getting weak and buyers are starting to build positions. So let’s break it down in easy words 👇 What’s happening on ETH? After a strong sell-off, ETH made a sharp bounce and now it’s consolidating near important value levels. This is the type of price action we often see when the market is trying to form a bottom. Key points (simple) ✅ Adam & Eve pattern is forming = possible bottom setup ✅ POC reclaim is the main trigger = confirmation needed ✅ If breakout comes with volume, $2,450 is the main upside target The “Adam” leg (sharp bounce) ETH made a strong swing low near $1,740 and then bounced hard. This type of bounce usually shows: panic selling is fadingshort covering startsearly dip buyers step in It’s not a full trend change yet but it’s the first signal that selling pressure is getting tired. The “Eve” formation (rounded base) After that bounce, ETH slowed down and started forming a rounded base near support. This is the “Eve” part it builds slowly and shows the market is: absorbing supplyholding higher lowscreating a base for continuation As long as ETH holds above $1,740, the bottom idea stays alive. The real trigger: Point of Control (POC) To confirm this reversal, ETH needs to reclaim the Point of Control (POC) on a closing basis. POC = the price level where most volume traded (big pivot zone). If ETH reclaims it with strong bullish volume, the reversal becomes more real. If not, price can still chop or retest lower zones. Upside target if it confirms If the pattern confirms, the next big target is around: 🎯 $2,450 (major resistance zone) But remember: these reversals don’t happen in one straight line. Breakouts can be messy pullbacks and retests are normal. What to watch next ETH must hold above $1,740ETH must reclaim POC with volumeIf that happens → rotation toward $2,450 becomes more likely ✅#CPIWatch #USNFPBlowout #TrumpCanadaTariffsOverturned $ETH $BNB $XRP
Sharplink’s Lubin & Chalom Explain Why Ether DATs Matter Even While Prices Are Dropping
Hi guys, today I’m sharing an important update from Consensus Hong Kong 2026 where Sharplink Gaming (SBET) Chairman Joe Lubin and CEO Joseph Chalom explained their vision about Ether Digital Asset Treasuries (DATs). And yes they shared this while the market is going down and prices are plunging. So let’s break it down in easy words… What’s happening? As institutions are entering crypto more seriously, a new strategy is growing: ✅ Ether is not only an “investment” now It’s being treated like productive financial infrastructure (something that can generate returns and support real finance use-cases). But the market is still very volatile. SharpLink’s stock once pumped hard last May after they adopted an ETH treasury strategy, and later it dumped heavily —just like many other digital asset treasury companies. That’s the reality: crypto still has turbulence. Chalom’s main point: Ethereum tailwinds are strong Chalom said something very clear: Ethereum’s macro situation has never been better in its 10+ year historyHe highlighted growth in:stablecoinstokenization He also referenced big institutional talk, saying even major finance leaders are openly speaking about tokenizing huge amounts of assets and a big portion is already happening on Ethereum. In simple terms: 📌 Institutions are not leaving Ethereum — they’re slowly preparing to use it more. “Price drop and ETF flows” what they think Chalom explained that recent ETH price weakness and ETF flow concerns are part of bigger macro behavior. He said during volatility, big money usually de-risks from liquid assets fast, and BTC + ETH are easy assets to sell quickly. But he still believes the biggest institutions are basically saying: ✅ “We are coming to ether.” Why their strategy is different from ETFs Chalom made a key comparison: ETF = good passive exposure, but it needs daily liquiditySharpLink = they have permanent capital (long-term strategy) And then he said the most important stage is: 🔥 Make your ETH productive Meaning: don’t just hold ETH, use it in a smart way. Lubin’s biggest point: ETH gives yield Lubin said ETH is powerful because: ✅ It yields ✅ It’s a productive asset ✅ It can generate returns through staking He mentioned staking returns around 3% and said SharpLink has staked nearly all their ETH holdings. And their plan is simple: keep buying ETHkeep staking ETHkeep adding yield “Good institutional DeFi” (not gambling) Chalom also talked about what he called good institutional DeFi. Not chasing crazy 10x VC style bets, but focusing on: best risk-adjusted yieldlong-term locked capitalraising the quality standards of DeFi In simple words: They want safer, smarter DeFi returns not hype plays. Lubin’s prediction: every company will become “blockchain company” Lubin compared it to the early internet days: Before: there were “internet companies” Now: every company uses the internet He believes the same will happen with blockchain: ✅ Soon, every company will become a blockchain company ✅ Companies will hold tokens on balance sheets ✅ They will need serious onchain treasury tools Even while the market is dumping, these guys are pushing a long-term institutional idea: Hold ETH + stake ETH + use ETH as financial infrastructure. That’s what DAT strategy is becoming. If you want more updates like this in easy words, follow Bullclub 🚀
$MYX bounced hard from 2.613 and now it’s making higher lows on the 15m chart ✅ Price is trading near 3.008 after rejecting from the 3.193 resistance zone. Momentum still looks good, and as long as 2.900 – 2.950 holds as support, structure favors continuation toward 3.200 – 3.350.

Aave Labs Proposes “Aave Will Win” Plan 100% Revenue to Aave DAO
Aave Labs just dropped a new governance proposal that can shape the next chapter of one of the biggest lending protocols in crypto. The proposal name is “Aave Will Win” and the biggest point is simple: ✅ Aave Labs wants to send 100% of revenue from Aave-branded products directly to the Aave DAO treasury. This proposal is mainly built around the upcoming Aave V4 upgrade, and if it passes, V4 will become the main base of Aave’s future development. What’s the main idea? If the DAO approves it, then any revenue made from Aave Labs-built products like: Aave apps / user interfacesinstitutional toolsenterprise servicesAave-branded products …will go back to the community-controlled DAO treasury, not to Aave Labs as a company. Aave Labs founder Stani Kulechov explained that this model makes Aave Labs a long-term builder for the DAO, but the value flows to the community. Market reaction After this news, AAVE token went up around 2%, even though the overall crypto market was selling off heavily on Thursday. Why this proposal matters now? This came during some serious community drama in late 2025. There was big disagreement inside the Aave community about who should control important assets like: trademarksdomainssocial media accountsbranded assets Some community members felt that Aave Labs holding too much control goes against decentralization and DAO spirit. This proposal is coming right in that background, and it looks like a big move to reduce those tensions. Aave V4 is the center of the plan Aave V4 is a major upgrade designed to make Aave: faster to expandeasier to launch new marketsmore flexible for new financial productsstrong on security Instead of changing the core system every time they add something new, V4 aims to make growth smoother and more modular. New markets with different risk + revenue models Another part of the plan is launching separate markets with different: risk settingsrevenue structures This is important because Aave can support special use-cases like institutions joining DeFi, without disturbing the main protocol. Revenue shift: more than just lending fees Right now, Aave earns mostly from lending activity. But under this plan: revenue from other products built around Aave (interfaces, institutional services, etc.) will also flow into the DAO treasury. So the goal is: diversify incomealign product development with token holder incentives Foundation for brand + trademarks They also want to create a dedicated foundation to hold and protect Aave’s brand and trademarks, because DAOs can’t directly own IP legally. More details about this foundation will come in a future vote. Final words If this passes, more proposals will follow: how V4 will activatehow funding will workhow the full structure will run Overall, this shows Aave’s plan to move from “just a DeFi lending protocol” into a bigger global financial infrastructure, powered and governed by its DAO.

Hyperliquid Strategies (PURR) posts a $318M loss and it’s mostly the HYPE mark-to-market
Listen everyone, this is what “treasury company volatility” looks like in real time. Nasdaq-listed Hyperliquid Strategies (PURR) reported a $317.9 million net loss for the six months ended Dec. 31, 2025, and the headline driver was simple: HYPE price weakness hit the balance sheet hard. The company said $262.4 million of that loss came from unrealized losses on HYPE tokens, alongside a $35.6 million merger-related IPR&D write-off and a $17.8 million increase in deferred tax expense. Even with that loss, the balance sheet isn’t “blown up.” Hyperliquid Strategies reported $616.7M in total assets and $589.8M in stockholders’ equity, and importantly, no debt. At year-end, the company held about 12.86 million HYPE valued using a $25.48 price, plus a large cash position. Revenue was still small around $0.9M interest income and $0.5M staking revenue, mostly after the company’s transaction closed in early December. Then came the real “strategy” part: as of Feb. 3, the firm said it deployed $129.5M to buy ~5M more HYPE, bringing holdings to ~17.6M HYPE (about 1.83% of supply), and also used $10.5M to repurchase ~3M shares. It still had ~$125M deployable capital and access to a $1B equity line. HYPE itself has been volatile CoinGecko shows it around the high-$20s recently, and its all-time high is $59.30, so these mark-to-market swings can get brutal fast. Bottom line: PURR is basically a levered bet on the Hyperliquid ecosystem. When HYPE drops, the income statement bleeds. When HYPE runs, the optics flip instantly.
Crypto bounce is fading BTC slips back under $66K as traders move “risk-off”
Listen everyone, that big Friday bounce is starting to look like a classic relief rally. After Bitcoin bounced from around $60K to nearly $72K, the market couldn’t hold the follow-through. Now BTC is back below $66,000, and majors are sliding again with it. What changed? The macro tape got tighter. The U.S. just printed a stronger-than-expected January jobs report (130K) and unemployment dipped to 4.3%, which instantly cooled rate-cut hopes. When cuts get pushed out, liquidity expectations tighten and crypto usually feels that first. The bigger signal is positioning: leverage is leaving the building. CoinGlass data cited in market coverage shows BTC perp open interest is way down from its Oct 2025 peak, which basically means traders are de-risking and conviction is fading. That’s not bullish momentum that’s a market trying to survive. Meanwhile, the attention is rotating elsewhere. Stocks are holding up better, metals are catching bids again, and crypto is struggling to stay “interesting” for allocators. That’s the real problem in bear phases not just price going down, but people walking away. Even crypto-related stocks are getting hit as risk appetite drains, adding another layer of pressure across the whole sector. Bottom line: Friday’s bounce didn’t flip the trend. Until BTC can reclaim key levels and hold them, this is still a market where rallies get sold and patience wins.

$UNI just woke up fast not random. Reports around BlackRock’s tokenized fund activity on Uniswap + the UNI ETF narrative brought real attention back to DeFi.
On the chart (4H), UNI printed a big impulse candle with strong volume, but right now it’s sitting under supply.
Key levels:
Resistance: $4.00, then $4.58
Support: $3.60–$3.45, then $3.22
My plan: I’m not chasing the pump. Best entry is either a clean reclaim/hold above $4.00, or a pullback that holds $3.60–$3.45.
Bitcoin Drops Below $67,000 Again as Hawkish Fed Outlook Hits Crypto
Listen everyone, Bitcoin slipped below $67,000 again in early trading, and the selling pressure is picking up as markets price in a more hawkish U.S. macro outlook. The weakness wasn’t limited to BTC. Ethereum fell about 4.1% to around $1,965, while XRP dropped roughly 4.3% and BNB slid about 4.5%. Analysts say the main driver behind this move is not a “crypto-only” problem it’s shifting expectations around U.S. monetary policy. Bitrue research head Andri Fauzan Adziima described it as a hawkish shift following the nomination of Kevin Warsh as Fed chairman, which reinforced the idea of tighter liquidity and fewer rate cuts ahead. In that environment, risk assets typically struggle, and crypto feels it fast. The next big question is where buyers step in. Adziima said investors are watching the $60,000–$65,000 range as a key zone where support could form for a potential recovery. If BTC can stabilize there, the market may attempt a base. If not, volatility stays high. Kronos Research CIO Vincent Liu added that derivatives data suggests a lot of excessive leverage has already been flushed. Funding rates show many leveraged positions have been closed, and institutional capital is now waiting for clearer catalysts like stronger ETF momentum or a new macro signal before stepping back in with size. Interestingly, ETF flows are still coming in. Spot Bitcoin ETFs reportedly saw $166.56 million in net inflows on Tuesday, while spot Ethereum ETFs brought in a smaller $13.82 million. That tells you the market is split: macro pressure is pushing price down, but some long-term demand is still present through ETFs. Outside crypto, the broader market picture is mixed. Asian stocks moved higher, while U.S. indexes like the S&P 500 and Nasdaq declined. Now traders are watching U.S. employment data due Thursday, which could shift rate expectations again and decide the next move for risk assets. Not financial advice.
Kyle says Solana’s next 18 months could change on-chain finance
Listen everyone
Former Multicoin co-founder Kyle Samani just made a strong prediction: Solana’s market “microstructure” upgrades over the next 18 months could be the fastest and most meaningful advancement we’ve seen in crypto so far. Not in terms of hype but in terms of how on-chain markets actually function for serious financial apps. His point is simple: the next wave isn’t about just being faster. It’s about building on-chain infrastructure that can handle real execution quality, real liquidity, and real market design. Alpenglow: the consensus upgrade that targets ultra-low latency Kyle highlighted Alpenglow as one of the biggest protocol-level changes on Solana’s roadmap. The goal is to drastically simplify consensus and cut block finalization from roughly 12 seconds to around 100–150 milliseconds. If Solana can consistently operate at that latency, it opens the door for high-frequency style financial apps that simply don’t work well on slower finality chains. ACE: apps controlling execution is the real game-changer One of the most important concepts he mentioned is ACE (Application Control of Execution). On most blockchains, block producers basically control ordering. ACE flips that idea by letting the application set how transactions should be ordered and settled. That means a DEX or perpetuals protocol could run its own rules for matching, priority, and anti-MEV behavior closer to a true trading engine, but on-chain. If this works, it’s not just “DeFi.” It’s a step toward an internet-native capital market where each venue can design its own microstructure. MCP: multiple leaders producing blocks at the same time Kyle also pointed to MCP (Multiple Concurrent Block Production), a future upgrade that would allow multiple leaders to propose blocks simultaneously. The goal is higher throughput, faster inclusion, lower latency, and better censorship resistance. In plain terms: fewer bottlenecks, smoother execution under load. PropAMMs: institutions already reshaping Solana DEX trading He also called out PropAMMs (Proprietary AMMs) as a major shift already happening. Unlike public AMMs where anyone can deposit liquidity, PropAMMs are deployed by professional market makers and managed actively using real-time pricing inputs. Kyle says these PropAMMs now account for over 60% of Solana DEX volume, which is a big statement and it explains why execution on Solana has been getting closer to CEX-style pricing in certain conditions. Aggregators: the real execution layer for users With liquidity spread across many venues, aggregators like Jupiter and Dflow become critical. They route orders across AMMs, PropAMMs, and other liquidity sources to get the best price and lowest slippage. This is how on-chain trading starts to feel “clean” for the end user not by one pool being perfect, but by routing being intelligent. Conditional liquidity: tighter spreads, less toxic flow Kyle also mentioned conditional liquidity, where liquidity isn’t always available to everyone in every condition. It becomes accessible only when certain criteria are met (like non-toxic order flow). The idea is to protect liquidity providers from being farmed, which can allow tighter spreads and deeper liquidity without constant fear of adverse selection. SVM and scheduler upgrades: making the engine more efficient Under the hood, Solana’s SVM and scheduler improvements aim to boost compute efficiency, concurrency, and execution performance. This part isn’t flashy, but it’s foundational. If Solana wants sophisticated apps running at scale, the execution environment has to keep getting better. Why this matters Kyle’s message is that Solana is moving toward a world where on-chain markets don’t just exist they compete on execution quality. Faster finality, customizable ordering, professional liquidity, smarter routing, and less MEV damage are the ingredients required for serious financial infrastructure. If these upgrades land as expected, Solana could become a primary on-chain base layer for high-performance DeFi and advanced financial applications. Not financial advice.
White House Crypto Meeting Stalls on Stablecoin Yields , BTC Drops Toward $67K
Listen everyone, The critical crypto meeting at the White House didn’t end the way Trump’s team likely wanted. According to a report from Bitcoinsistemi, the stablecoin-focused meeting held late yesterday ended without a clear conclusion, after talks stalled over one major issue: stablecoin yield. Representatives from major U.S. banks met with crypto industry figures to try to find common ground around the Senate’s market structure bill. But negotiations reportedly hit a wall when the banking sector refused to compromise on stablecoin interest payments and pushed for a complete ban on stablecoin yields. A White House document reportedly suggests any exceptions should be “extremely limited” so the ban principle isn’t weakened. That stance is described as even stricter than the recent market structure bill language, which allowed yield in certain stablecoin activities. This deadlock is now putting short-term momentum at risk for the Clarity Act, one of the biggest U.S. crypto reform efforts, and the market reacted fast. Bitcoin reportedly slipped to around $67,000 during morning hours. Ripple’s CLO says talks were “productive” Ripple’s Chief Legal Officer Stuart Alderoty, who attended the meeting, described the discussions as productive and said a consensus is forming, with bipartisan support for the broader market structure still intact. He also stressed the need to act while there’s an opportunity to deliver results for U.S. consumers. Bottom line: the policy fight over stablecoin yields is turning into a real market catalyst. If lawmakers can’t agree, volatility stays high. Not financial advice.
