January 26th. HTX DeepThink columnist and HTX Research researcher Chloe analyzed that the macro theme of the crypto market this week still revolves around the Federal Reserve's inaction, ongoing economic resilience, and the strengthening trend of precious metals. The FOMC meeting on Thursday is highly likely to keep interest rates unchanged. The market's focus is on Powell's statement strength and whether he will leave room for further rate cuts in 2026 in the dot plot or policy statement.From a macro perspective, the persistent decline in inflation has given the Federal Reserve room to be patient. December CPI and core CPI both confirmed a downward trend in inflation, with the price pressure from tariffs being seen as a one-time disturbance by officials. At the same time, the labor market is in a state of "neither expansion nor contraction." Against the backdrop of steady GDP growth momentum, this has significantly reduced the urgency of a policy shift. This has made it difficult for the Federal Reserve to find a real driver to signal a more aggressive easing in the short term.For crypto assets, this means that liquidity expectations are unlikely to open up further, but risk appetite has not been significantly dampened. The dollar has maintained a weak bias under the impact of tariffs and geopolitical uncertainties, forming medium-term support for Bitcoin and the crypto market. However, if the FOMC does not signal more dovishness than expected, the market is more likely to remain in a high-level oscillation rather than quickly breaking out into a unilateral trend.It is worth noting the continued strength of precious metals. Gold and silver are showing a rare "self-consistent rise" feature—prices continue to rise regardless of the ups and downs of risk assets. This reflects structural supply-demand imbalances, trend fund intervention, and the long-term repricing of fiat credit. Historical experience shows that after precious metals enter this stage, Bitcoin often exhibits a lag effect and is more likely to start the next phase of market evolution after the exuberance in precious metals sentiment.

January 26th, the prices of gold and silver once again hit a new all-time high. The spot price of gold surpassed $5000 per ounce, while silver reached a new high as well. Hong Kong stocks and global gold stocks collectively strengthened. Institutions believe that central banks' continued gold purchases, escalating geopolitical risks, and a weakening US dollar have collectively pushed precious metals into a "structural bull market."It is worth noting that despite the repeated record highs in gold prices, the global mining stock valuation remains at a historical low. Data shows that the mining index has seen a nearly 90% increase year-to-date, but the price-to-book ratio is still significantly below the long-term average. Analysts at BiyaPay pointed out that the current market situation exhibits the characteristics of "gold leading, equities lagging," suggesting that mining stocks may have room for catch-up growth.Against the backdrop of intertwined hedging and inflation expectations, investors are now focusing on scarce assets such as gold, mining stocks, and Bitcoin. Through BiyaPay, investors can use USDT to actively participate in US stocks, Hong Kong stocks, futures, and cryptocurrency trading, seizing opportunities for multi-asset rotation.

January 26th, Cathie Wood recently stated in a podcast interview on The Brainstorm that she strongly opposes the current Federal Reserve's high level of transparency, stating that "this instead creates market volatility and high-frequency trading opportunities." She prefers a more action-oriented approach similar to the Volcker era (focused on monetary supply) or the Greenspan era (with relatively stable gold prices).Cathie Wood believes that current U.S. inflation is fundamentally below 2% (based on unit labor costs only 1.2-1.4%), unlike the wage-push inflation of the 1970s. Trump's policies (similar to Reagan but more aggressive) may further increase U.S. capital returns, strengthen the dollar, and help control inflation without the need for significant interest rate hikes.In the field of AI, Cathie Wood stated that if billions of dollars in AI computing power are invested in the coming years, humanoid robots are expected to achieve true flexibility by the end of the 2020s, capable of replacing human labor. Cathie's analysis suggests that humanoid robots are highly cost-effective: a $100,000 robot can correspond to a human cost of $500,000 over 10 years, with an ROI of over 5 times, ultimately leading to a trillion-dollar increase in productivity.

January 26th. Recently, the crypto community has been hotly discussing the AI assistant Clawdbot. As a proactive AI assistant, Clawdbot is powerful, able to handle tasks such as email, calendar, and flight bookings. However, many community KOLs have provided feedback on significant security vulnerabilities in the tool, such as warning that injection attacks could lead to data leaks.In response, renowned entrepreneur Rahul Sood and other KOLs have advised users (especially newcomers without a coding background) to run Clawdbot on a dedicated machine (or in an isolated environment), use a new account, temporary phone number, and independent password manager, avoid granting backend key access, and thus reduce the risk of hackers.Former US security expert Chad Nelson has warned that "every document, email, and web page read by Clawdbot could become an attack vector. The widespread use of Clawdbot-like tools will completely undermine individual privacy and security."
