Abstract

毫无疑问,现在整个加密市场已经乱作一团。究竟是什么原因,导致了这周的加密货币集体暴跌?

加密货币的市值已从2021年11月的3万亿美元峰值降至1万亿美元以下。加密货币遭遇抛售之际,由于宏观经济阻力和美联储加息,投资者纷纷抛售风险最高的资产。周一的市场行为显示出投资者对加密货币及其支持平台的不信任。

根据CoinMarketCap的数据,在撰写本文时,比特币在过去24小时下跌约11.2%,跌至18个月以来的低点,以太坊下跌约7.7%。而相对一周前,两者分别下跌了24%和30%。

随着加密货币市场的暴跌,许多顶级NFT的地板价也随之下跌,NFT交易量激增。

毫无疑问,现在整个Web3市场已经乱作一团。究竟是什么原因,导致了这周的加密货币集体暴跌?

Celsius崩盘的传染效应

近期导致市场波动最直接的事件恐怕是Celsius Networks的危机。Celsius在去年筹集了大量风险投资,本周其代币CEL崩盘,然后停止了提款。

数周来,投资者越来越担心加密货币质押和贷款平台Celsius正处于流动性紧缩之中。Celsius为用户提供高达18.63%的存款收益率。它就像银行提供的一种产品,只不过没有任何监管保障。 去年,Celsius的CEL代币从7美元多跌至约33美分,然后在过去一周又下跌了50%以上。

与此同时,Celsius 260亿美元的客户资金自去年10月以来减少了一半以上。

Celsius 表示,“由于极端的市场条件,我们今天宣布Celsius暂停所有提款、兑换和账户之间的转账。我们今天采取这一行动是为了让Celsius更好地履行它的提款义务。”

“加密货币寒冬”前的大裁员

越来越多的加密公司通过裁员来削减成本,Peter Thiel投资的创业公司BlockFi也加入了这一行列。

周一,BlockFi宣布将裁员约20%。在此次裁员之前,该公司的员工数量从2020年底的150人增加到了850多人。

BlockFi首席执行官Zac Prince在推特上表示,BlockFi受到了“宏观经济状况的急剧变化”的影响,这对增长产生了“负面影响”。

在加密领域,裁员似乎已经是家常便饭。

上周晚些时候,Crypto.com宣布裁员260人,而就在7个月前,该公司刚刚斥资7亿美元获得了NBA洛杉矶湖人队主场球场的冠名权。

本月早些时候,Gemini表示将裁员10%,并警告称,该行业正处于被称为“加密货币寒冬”的“收缩期”。

Take a Calm Look at Domestic Lithography Machines: 5 Units Delivered, How Far Are We from Challenging ASML?

This article analyzes recent news about China's domestic DUV lithography machines, advising a measured perspective. A state-backed enterprise plans to deliver about 5 immersion DUV systems this year, with a 2027 target of 20 units, aimed at 28nm processes. While this marks a step from R&D into initial customer validation, the author cautions against over-optimism. The piece clarifies this is DUV, not EUV technology. DUV is crucial but cannot economically solve challenges for advanced nodes like 5nm or below, where EUV is key. The 5-unit volume is minimal compared to ASML's annual output of over 130 such machines. The author highlights unverified claims regarding specs like 90% yield and warns against conflating this news with unconfirmed reports about Shanghai Micro Electronics' production. China's EUV efforts, while progressing with a prototype, remain in early testing, facing significant hurdles in core components like high-precision optics. The analogy of a "DeepSeek moment" is deemed misleading, as lithography involves slow, iterative precision engineering, not rapid software-like breakthroughs. Current progress represents establishing a potential second supply source and gaining vital engineering experience rather than an imminent industry disruption. For investors, the key indicators to watch are formal customer acceptance, stable operational performance, repeat orders, and growth in production volume and component localization. The conclusion is that this is a positive but early-stage development, far from altering the global competitive landscape.

The 800x Golden Dog, "Gacha" Saves NFT Trading

Title: 800x Golden Dog: How 'Gacha' Mechanics Are Rescuing NFT Trading In the past month, the on-chain TCG (Trading Card Game) narrative, centered around "gacha" or loot box mechanics, has emerged as a major crypto-native revenue generator, second only to platforms like Hyperliquid and pump.fun. Recently, this trend hit Ethereum with Fake World Assets (FWA). Within just over a week, FWA generated approximately $1.3 million in revenue, ranking 15th in the past week's crypto app earnings. Its token, $FWA, surged from an initial market cap of ~$47,550 to a peak of ~$38.8 million—an 800x gain. Meanwhile, Collector Cards' token $CARDS declined significantly from its previous highs. FWA, developed by the team behind "PunkStrategy," operates as an NFT gacha system with a built-in token flywheel. Users deposit NFTs paired with ETH as liquidity into pools. Each deposit creates a personal pool; more ETH deposited lowers the chance of the NFT being "won" in a draw. Players spend ETH to "draw" (gacha). If they get an undesirable NFT, they can instantly sell it back to the original depositor at an 85% discount, generating income for the depositor. A 1% fee is taken on each draw and on depositor earnings when an NFT is kept. The key to FWA's momentum is its token $FWA. It cannot be bought directly externally. The primary way to acquire it is by playing the gacha and choosing to receive $FWA (instead of ETH) when selling back an unwanted NFT. This mechanism creates constant buy pressure for $FWA as players engage, especially during its price ascent. Early participants who held $FWA benefited massively from subsequent inflows. This contrasts with projects like Collector Cards, which, despite strong revenues, suffer from perceived low token utility beyond buybacks. In conclusion, while FWA's flywheel design—linking speculative token gains directly to NFT trading activity—has driven rapid growth, its sustainability is questionable. The model relies heavily on continuous $FWA price appreciation to offset the inherent negative expectancy of each draw. When price momentum stalls, activity will likely decline. The case highlights that in crypto markets, pure profitability narratives can be fleeting; understanding the relationship between attention, token buy pressure, and sustainable mechanics is crucial to avoid speculative pitfalls.

The Quantum Computing Threat Approaches, Cryptocurrency May Be Exposed to Risks Before Banks

Quantum computing poses a significant threat to all cryptographic systems, including banks and governments, but decentralized cryptocurrencies with public ledgers like Bitcoin are likely the first practical target. Experts warn that a cryptographically relevant quantum computer (CRQC), capable of running Shor's algorithm to break the elliptic curve cryptography securing most crypto wallets, could emerge around 2029. Recent research shows the required quantum resources for such attacks are shrinking dramatically, potentially enabling key extraction in minutes. The core vulnerability for cryptocurrencies is not the cryptography itself—post-quantum standards are being developed—but the slow, decentralized governance required to implement upgrades. Unlike centralized banks that can swiftly transition, Bitcoin needs near-unanimous consensus among its global network, a historically difficult process as seen in past upgrades. Estimates suggest migrating all vulnerable Bitcoin funds could take at least 76 days of dedicated network time, and it must be completed before a CRQC exists to prevent "now-or-never" attacks on exposed keys. The threat is not binary; it begins when a quantum computer can decrypt data before it loses value, not necessarily in real-time. A significant portion of Bitcoin (estimated at millions of coins) already has public keys permanently exposed on-chain, making them vulnerable to eventual "static attacks." While technical solutions exist, the race is against time for decentralized networks to coordinate a defensive transition, serving as an early warning for the broader financial system.
