🚀 BTC Chip Concentration Signals Potential Volatility, Analyst Says
#BTC #ChipConcentration #Volatility #MarketAnalysis #CPI #BankOfJapan #InterestRate #Crypto
According to BlockBeats, on-chain data analyst Murphy has highlighted that the concentration of BTC chips serves as an effective early warning indicator for potential volatility. When the concentration within a 5% range of the current spot price exceeds 13%, it enters a warning zone, and above 15% is considered high risk. The higher the concentration, the greater the likelihood and magnitude of volatility.
Currently, BTC's chip concentration stands at 11%, which is moderately high but not yet in the warning zone above 13%. Therefore, the probability of significant volatility is low from the perspective of chip structure, as it does not meet the conditions for a 'chain reaction.'
The market is also anticipating the release of CPI data on the evening of the 18th at 21:30 and the Bank of Japan's interest rate decision on the 19th. Murphy believes that unless these events significantly exceed expectations, their impact on the market should remain within the range of 'minor fluctuations,' unlike the intense volatility experienced on August 5th last year when chip concentration was at 15%.#BTC #ChipConcentration #Volatility #MarketAnalysis #CPI #BankOfJapan #InterestRate #Crypto

🚀 Trump to Interview Waller for Potential Federal Reserve Chair Role
#Trump #Waller #FederalReserve #FedChair #JeromePowell #KevinWarsh #KevinHassett #cryptocurrencies #stablecoins #DeFi #interestRates #Polymarket #PaymentsInnovation #economics #WallStreet
According to BlockBeats, U.S. President Donald Trump is set to interview current Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller on Wednesday to assess his potential as the next Federal Reserve Chair, succeeding Jerome Powell. On the prediction market Polymarket, Waller's chances of being nominated by Trump have risen to 15%. Meanwhile, the probability of Kevin Warsh being nominated has decreased to 27%, while Kevin Hassett's chances have increased to 53%.
Waller, who was nominated by Trump to join the Federal Reserve Board in 2020, is a supporter of cryptocurrencies, with a particular focus on stablecoins and decentralized finance (DeFi). At the Federal Reserve's Payments Innovation Conference in October, Waller emphasized that the Fed is entering a new era in the payments sector, where the DeFi industry is no longer doubted or underestimated. He described stablecoins as a new form of private money that will coexist with other payment tools.
Earlier reports indicate that Waller has been a leading advocate for interest rate cuts within the Federal Reserve this year. During the Fed's July meeting, where interest rates were held steady, Waller cast a dissenting vote in favor of a rate cut. He is a favored candidate among economists for the Fed Chair position and is well-regarded on Wall Street for his clear and consistent arguments for rate cuts, which have been seen as capable of bridging growing divisions within the Fed. Some of his arguments for rate cuts have already been adopted by the current Chair, Jerome Powell. Waller is scheduled to speak on the economic outlook on Wednesday evening, UTC+8.#Trump #Waller #FederalReserve #FedChair #JeromePowell #KevinWarsh #KevinHassett #cryptocurrencies #stablecoins #DeFi #interestRates #Polymarket #PaymentsInnovation #economics #WallStreet
🚀 Japan's Cryptocurrency Tax Reform Expected to Implement in 2028
#Japan #Cryptocurrency #TaxReform #JapanTaxSystem #CryptocurrencyTax #InvestorProtection #FinancialInstrumentsAndExchangeAct #2028 #CryptoRegulation #CryptocurrencyMarket #Taxation
According to PANews, Japanese political sources have indicated that the country's cryptocurrency tax reform, which involves transitioning to a 'separate declaration taxation' system, may not be officially implemented until January 2028. Previously, the market widely anticipated that the new tax system would be introduced in 2027, coinciding with the expected passage of legislation to regulate cryptocurrencies under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act. However, political insiders have revealed that the actual progress may be slower than expected. One source stated, 'Currently, there is a lack of basis to expedite the tax reform. The government is more focused on investor protection and needs to observe the situation following the implementation of the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act before initiating the new tax system. Based on the normal process, it is expected to be enforced from January 1, 2028.'
Japan's current tax system categorizes profits from cryptocurrency transactions as 'miscellaneous income,' which must be combined with wages and other income for taxation purposes, subject to comprehensive taxation with a maximum marginal tax rate of up to 55%, including local resident tax. Industry and investors have long advocated for a tax system similar to stock investments, where cryptocurrency would be taxed at a unified rate of 20% under separate declaration taxation, aiming to reduce tax burdens and promote market development.#Japan #Cryptocurrency #TaxReform #JapanTaxSystem #CryptocurrencyTax #InvestorProtection #FinancialInstrumentsAndExchangeAct #2028 #CryptoRegulation #CryptocurrencyMarket #Taxation

🚀 Japan's Neutral Interest Rate Strategy Discussed by Former Central Bank Official
#Japan #NeutralInterestRate #BankofJapan #FiscalPolicy #MonetaryPolicy #InterestRateHike #Skepticism #MasazumiWakatabe #GovernmentPolicy
According to Odaily, Masazumi Wakatabe, former Deputy Governor of the Bank of Japan and member of a government policy group, emphasized the need for Japan to enhance its neutral interest rate through fiscal policy and growth strategies. He stated that if fiscal policy leads to an increase in Japan's neutral interest rate, a rate hike by the Bank of Japan would be a natural outcome. However, he advised against premature rate hikes and excessive tightening of monetary policy at present.
Analyst Justin Low expressed skepticism regarding Wakatabe's comments, noting his affiliation with a government group appointed by Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi. Low suggested that Wakatabe's remarks might align with government interests and counter the Bank of Japan's potential rate hike later this week.#Japan #NeutralInterestRate #BankofJapan #FiscalPolicy #MonetaryPolicy #InterestRateHike #Skepticism #MasazumiWakatabe #GovernmentPolicy

🚀 Bitcoin's Future Threatened by Quantum Computing, Expert Warns
#Bitcoin #QuantumComputing #Cryptocurrency #BitcoinPrice #Encryption #DigitalAssets #Capriole #CharlesEdwards #BlockchainSecurity #FutureOfBitcoin #BTC
According to BlockBeats, Charles Edwards, founder of the quantitative Bitcoin and digital asset fund Capriole, has issued a warning regarding Bitcoin's vulnerability to quantum computing. Edwards suggests that if Bitcoin does not develop resistance to quantum computing by 2028, its price could fall below $50,000.
The potential threat of quantum computing to the cryptocurrency industry has been a topic of discussion for some time, viewed as a critical turning point on the horizon. In theory, more advanced quantum computers could break encryption algorithms, exposing user keys and leaving funds and sensitive data vulnerable to malicious actors. While this risk is generally considered distant, Edwards predicts that the timeline could accelerate to 2028. If the industry does not respond adequately, Bitcoin's price may face significant repercussions.#Bitcoin #QuantumComputing #Cryptocurrency #BitcoinPrice #Encryption #DigitalAssets #Capriole #CharlesEdwards #BlockchainSecurity #FutureOfBitcoin #BTC

🚀 Gonka's AI Network Sees Significant Surge in Computing Power
#Gonka #AIinference #computingpower #decentralizednetwork #GPUresources #AItraining #cloudcomputing #AIinfrastructure #NVIDIAG100 #Qwen3 #dePIN #Bitfury #OpenAI #investment
According to PANews, the decentralized AI inference network Gonka has experienced a substantial increase in computing power, with its network capacity soaring nearly 20 times to surpass 10,000 NVIDIA H100 equivalents, reaching 10,729 as of December 17. This scale is comparable to a large national AI computing center or a major cloud provider's core AI cluster, capable of supporting the training of large-scale models and high-throughput inference of even larger models.
Gonka achieves this by integrating global GPU resources in a decentralized manner, eliminating the need for centralized data centers and forming a scalable high-performance AI computing network. This milestone signifies Gonka's entry into the ranks of top-tier global AI infrastructure networks, with the capability to offer commercial-grade API services.
Currently, Gonka supports five mainstream AI inference models. Since its mainnet launch three months ago, the total daily usage of inference models has reached nearly 100 million tokens per epoch, with the popular model Qwen3-235B-Instruct accounting for approximately 30 million tokens daily, indicating exponential growth potential. The network has attracted nearly 600 active nodes from over 30 countries and regions, with more than 2,000 daily users of its AI inference services. Data shows that the growth rate of Gonka's inference usage has outpaced the increase in network nodes and computing power, demonstrating the market's strong demand for Gonka's decentralized inference services and the viability of its business model.
Previously, Gonka, recognized as an efficient decentralized AI inference and training network, secured a $50 million investment from Bitfury, with backing from OpenAI investor Coatue and Solana investor Slow Ventures. It is regarded as one of the most promising emerging infrastructures in the AI × DePIN sector.#Gonka #AIinference #computingpower #decentralizednetwork #GPUresources #AItraining #cloudcomputing #AIinfrastructure #NVIDIAG100 #Qwen3 #dePIN #Bitfury #OpenAI #investment
