The VIX index, a measure of market volatility, surged by 1.9 points to reach 20.69, marking an eight-week high on Tuesday, before closing at 20.09, the highest since November 24. According to ChainCatcher, Jim Carroll, a senior wealth advisor in Charleston, South Carolina, noted that while there is a noticeable reaction in risk indicators, it is not yet a cause for immediate panic.

Alex Morris from F/m Investments highlighted that the market's response to geopolitical tensions involves avoiding stock risks and investing in gold and cash. He added that the VIX would need to rise to 30 to trigger genuine panic.

πŸš€ New Domain Resurrection Attack Targets Linux Snap Store

A new type of 'domain resurrection attack' has been identified on the Linux Snap Store, according to PANews.

The domains storewise.tech and vagueentertainment.com have been confirmed as hijacked. This attack exploits the Snap mechanism, allowing originally trusted software to be embedded with malicious code without users' knowledge.

πŸš€ Tom Lee: 2026 Market Correction Likely, but Bitcoin Still Set for New All-Time High

Fundstrat co-founder Tom Lee said global markets may face a sharp correction in 2026 before staging a strong rebound later in the year, driven by an eventual shift in U.S. monetary policy.In a recent interview, Lee cited rising geopolitical tensions, tariff risks, and political polarization as key factors that could trigger a significant pullback across both equity and crypto markets. He estimates the U.S. stock market could decline between 15% and 20% during the year.However, Lee expects conditions to improve once the Federal Reserve pivots toward a more dovish stance and brings quantitative tightening to an end. Under that scenario, he believes markets could rebound strongly by year-end.Bitcoin still expected to reach new ATHDespite near-term downside risks, Lee said he remains confident that Bitcoin will reach a new all-time high in 2026.He described a fresh Bitcoin peak as a critical milestone that would allow the market to fully move past the October 10 deleveraging event, which marked one of the largest risk resets of the current cycle.According to Lee, a confirmed new high would signal restored confidence and structural recovery across digital assets.Preferred assets for 2026Looking ahead, Lee said energy, basic materials, and gold stand out as high-quality allocation assets for 2026 amid macro uncertainty.At the same time, he expects AI and blockchain sectors to continue benefiting from long-term growth trends, even if volatility persists in the near term.Into The Cryptoverse CEO Benjamin Cowen echoed similar views, suggesting that precious metals may once again outperform cryptocurrencies during parts of 2026, particularly if macro pressures remain elevated.
