Analysis of Macroeconomic Reports: There are very few macroeconomic reports scheduled for Monday. The only noteworthy release is the final estimate of UK GDP for the third quarter. It cannot be said that this report is secondary, but we do not expect a strong market reaction. Traders are already familiar with the first two estimates, and the third is unlikely to differ significantly from them. In the Eurozone and the U.S., the event calendars are empty. Analysis of Fundamental Events: No fundamental events are scheduled for Monday. Overall, the market currently has questions only for the Federal Reserve. The last meeting occurred recently, and since then, t…

Trade Review for Friday: 1H Chart of the GBP/USD Pair The GBP/USD pair traded even worse on Friday than the EUR/USD pair. Furthermore, another flat range has formed in the British currency, clearly visible on the hourly timeframe. For seven consecutive days, the quotes have been within the range of 1.3331-1.3437. What is this, if not a flat? This week, significant macroeconomic information was published in the UK and the U.S., and there was also the Bank of England meeting, the results of which are not trivial by any means. If reports on inflation, unemployment, and business activity indices, along with the BoE meeting, failed to trigger a trend or volatility, how ca…

Trade Review for Friday: 1H Chart of the EUR/USD Pair The EUR/USD currency pair remained stagnant on Friday. The overall volatility for the day was around 30 pips, which essentially indicates a complete lack of movement. It is worth noting that a significant number of crucial macroeconomic data were published that week, along with two central bank meetings (the European Central Bank and the Bank of England). Now, let's look at the charts. Does it feel like the fundamental and macroeconomic background over the past five days was super important? Essentially, the EUR/USD pair showed good movement only on Wednesday evening and Thursday night. During this time, the quot…

In the latest Cardano news,Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson claimed on X that the new Midnight token, NIGHT, traded more in 24 hours than XRP and Solana combined, after volume hit around $4 billion. NIGHT changed hands near $0.0738 with about $1.2 billion in market cap, putting it in the top 60 coins by size but near the top 10 by trading activity. This spike plays into a larger 2025 story, which has seen retail investors downtrodden by institutional money finding fresh interest in privacy coins, cross-chain bridges. Now the question is whether Cardano is still a “ghost chain” or quietly awakening. Market Cap …

Strangely enough, important events are scheduled for next week in the United States. While the UK and the Eurozone are already beginning their Christmas and New Year celebrations, America continues to operate. On Tuesday, reports on GDP, durable goods orders, and industrial production will be released. These are certainly not trivial and insignificant data releases. On Wednesday, initial unemployment claims will be published. After that, the limit of significant events will be reached even for the United States. Then comes Christmas. The news backdrop next week will be limited to the U.S., and the aforementioned reports could add some excitement to the pre-New Year routin…

The British currency did not show the expected movements last week. It is worth noting that over the past five days, several significant reports were released in the UK, including data on inflation, unemployment, wages, and business activity. In addition, the Bank of England held its last meeting of the year. In the U.S., reports on the labor market, unemployment, inflation, and business activity were released, and just a week prior, the Federal Reserve meeting occurred. There are times when important reports yield absolutely mundane figures, and central bank meetings end without any significant decisions. None of the aforementioned events fell into that category. However…

Last week did not yield significant results for either buyers or sellers. Despite a strong news backdrop, the importance of which was off the charts, the market experienced yet another banal and dull week according to the charts. Nothing has changed in the wave layout. The presumed wave 3 or C seems to have completed, and the construction of a new downward wave has begun, which could be either 4 or D, or the first wave of a new downward segment of the trend. Why is this the case? Because in recent months, the instrument has been building only corrective structures, which can be three-wave, five-wave, or even considerably more extended. Therefore, to some extent, we can on…

There is only a week and a half left until the New Year, and just a few days until Christmas, during which the market often slows down in a pre-holiday lull. Nevertheless, the economic calendar for the upcoming week is not empty. The report on U.S. economic growth for the third quarter will be released on Tuesday, December 23. This is likely the most critical release of the week. Due to the government shutdown, the standard schedule for the release of U.S. Q3 GDP data was altered. The preliminary estimate was canceled, so next week will see the first available release that effectively combines the first and second estimates of GDP. The January data update will be anal…

According to reports, Fundstrat analysts are sending mixed signals about Bitcoin’s path in 2026. One line of work inside the firm sees a noticeable pullback early next year, while another predicts new highs arriving soon after. Sean Farrell, Fundstrat’s head of digital asset strategy, is reported to have told clients that a “base case” would see Bitcoin move down toward the $60,000–$65,000 range in the first half of 2026. The same internal material attributes fallbacks for other major tokens — ETH toward about $1.8K–$2K and SOL near $50–$75 — which were framed as potential buying opportunities should markets correct. Risk Models And Shorter Time Horizons Farrell’s not…

Inflation is one of the most persistent threats to retirement security, because rising prices slowly weaken the purchasing power of every dollar saved. For pre-retirees and retirees who rely on IRAs, 401(k)s, and other tax-advantaged accounts, this erosion can make it harder to maintain the lifestyle they spent decades building. Many investors are turning to physical gold and other precious metals to help counter this long-term challenge and strengthen their overall retirement strategy. Understanding How Inflation Threatens Retirement Savings Inflation quietly reduces what your savings can buy over time, even when your account balances appear stable or growing on paper. T…

Expectations around XRP exchange-traded funds were seen as a turning point that could unlock new institutional demand and change XRP’s price structure in favor of buyers. However, recent on-chain data suggests the price response has diverged immensely from that narrative. Metrics tracked by the on-chain analytics platform CryptoQuant point to a very different dynamic unfolding beneath the surface, one that explains why the altcoin continues to struggle for traction despite headline optimism and inflows into Spot XRP ETFs. Whale Exchange Inflows Expose Supply Pressure Data from on-chain analytics platform CryptoQuant reveals an interesting trend among XRP whale address…

The price of Ethereum endured significant selling pressure over the past week, reflecting the current climate of the crypto market. The latest data shows that the spot US-based Ethereum ETFs (exchange-traded funds) did not have it any better, as significant capital flowed out of the market in the past week. Ethereum ETFs Weekly Outflow Exceeds $600 Million In a Quicktake post on the CryptoQuant platform, market pundit CryptoOnchain revealed an overwhelming exodus of institutional capital from the Ethereum market. More specifically, the analyst highlighted that over $600 million in capital flowed out of the US-based spot Ethereum ETFs over the past week. The relevant in…

More than 60% of global critical mineral demands is met through international trade, underscoring the deep structural interdependence between producing and consuming economies as the deployment of clean energy accelerates, according to the International Energy Forum (IEF). This level of reliance on international trade, the group said, makes the world’s supply chains highly sensitive to geopolitical tensions, export controls, and refining bottlenecks, as minerals become the backbone of electrification, digital infrastructure and advanced manufacturing. In its latest report titled A Critical Minerals Enabled Energy Future, the IEF highlights the mounting supply-side…

Ethereum developers officially confirmed the next big 2026 upgrade name: Hegota, which will follow the planned Glamsterdam hard fork. ETH traded largely range-bound on the day of the news, as traders focused more on macro signals and BTC dominance than long-range technical plans. Still, this roadmap matters for anyone who uses Ethereum, as it shapes future fees, network speed, and the perceived weight of running or relying on the chain. Hegota aligns with Ethereum’s new twice-a-year upgrade rhythm, which already includes upcoming forks such as Pectra and Fusaka in 2025 and Glamsterdam in 2026. According to FastBull, this predictable schedule lets developers ship smaller,…

Pump.fun executives and related Solana figures reportedly face a new lawsuit that claims more than 5,000 internal messages prove coordinated market rigging on the platform. SOL traded under pressure as traders weighed the legal risk to Solana’s meme-coin scene, already linked to huge scam losses in 2024. This case lands on top of growing regulatory heat on high-speed, low-fee chains that attract both serious builders and professional scammers. Prosecuting lawyers allege that over 5,000 private messages were exchanged between Solana Labs and Pump.Fun engineers discussing manipulation of coin launches and other insider schemes. What is Pump.fun and Why Are Solana Meme…

The Bitcoin price looks set to end the year in the red, having produced one of its worst Q4 performances in recent years. However, it appears that the new year 2026 might bring the relief majority of the market expects. According to a recent evaluation, the Bitcoin price structure suggests that a deeper correction looks to be on the horizon for the market leader. BTC Price To Revisit $73,000 In 2026 Q1? In a December 20 post on the X platform, quant trader CryptoOnchain shared fresh insights into the current layout of the Bitcoin price. According to the market analyst, the price outlook of BTC is tilting towards a bearish scenario, especially as selling pressure remains …

Heading into year two of the current US administration, the federal government is poised to sharpen its focus on critical minerals as policy, investment, and security priorities converge. Policy momentum, new public-private funding tools, and growing concerns over critical mineral dependencies are prompting Washington to think beyond rare earths and toward broader vulnerabilities in the supply chain. That shift is creating new priorities and new opportunities across extraction, processing, and manufacturing. A look at emerging federal activity reveals two themes rising to the surface — widening support for high-risk minerals and renewed attention to the technolog…

Although the Bitcoin price has recently displayed swift recovery to the upside, the broader picture still mirrors a bleak future for the flagship cryptocurrency. A new on-chain evaluation has surfaced, which suggests that Bitcoin’s recent price recovery could be happening within a broader, weak trend, with macroeconomic factors acting as the major influences. Weak Japanese Yen Fails To Ignite Crypto Risk Appetite In a QuickTake post on CryptoQuant, education group XWIN Research Japan explains reasons to believe that the Bitcoin market is merely at a “post-rebound adjustment” phase, rather than being underway to a full-scale price recovery. The research and education …

Bitcoin is back in focus after an outlook from Citigroup, where analysts mapped out a wide price range for the next year that captures both upside momentum and lingering downside risks. The bank’s latest projections point to a base-case target of $143,000 over the next 12 months, anchored in expectations around a growth in ETF participation and clearer regulatory frameworks. Furthermore, Citi outlined an optimistic path that stretches to $189,000, alongside a bearish scenario that projects a downward move to $78,500. ETF Adoption And Institutional Demand Citi’s base and bullish scenarios are built around the same core thesis: the growing role of regulated investment v…

Bitcoin continues to consolidate within the $88,000 price zone, resulting in no significant price move over the last day. The “digital gold” had experienced a highly volatile trading week, marked by swift price swings between $85,000 and $90,000. During this period, the Bitcoin futures markets registered two major short liquidation events, which could meaningfully impact price trajectory in the days ahead. Bitcoin $600M Short Liquidation To Limit Price Upside: Analyst In a QuickTake post on December 20, popular analyst Amr Taha highlights some important developments in the Bitcoin futures markets with significant implications for price growth.

Solana AI crypto Ava (AVA) crashed more than 96% from its January high after on‑chain analysts reportedly linked around 40% of the supply to coordinated “insider” wallets at launch. AVA now trades near $0.01 after peaking around $0.33, erasing almost all of its AI-meme-fueled rally. The drama hits right in the middle of an AI token boom on Solana and Ethereum, where fast launches and hype often outrun basic checks on who actually holds the coins. (source – Gecko Terminal) What happened with AVA, and why should small investors care? Today, a new token launch is like a concert ticket sale. A small group scripts the website and quietly buys almost half the tickets in t…

Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, called Donald Trump’s new crypto reserve plans “frustrating” after the president’s team listed ADA as part of a proposed US “Crypto Strategic Reserve.” ADA barely moved on the news, trading in line with a flat large-cap market, while BTC held its range near prior highs as traders waited for real policy details instead of headlines. This clash occurs amid a significant U.S. regulatory shift, where the SEC has eased some enforcement pressure and the Trump administration has relaxed bank restrictions for crypto firms, according to Reuters. Market Cap …
