Mass Protests Fuel Iran’s Crypto Boom, Shattering $7.8 Billion Mark

Iran's on-chain cryptocurrency activity surged to $7.8 billion in 2025, largely driven by mass protests and economic instability. As the rial plummeted amid 40-50% inflation, citizens moved assets from banks to private crypto wallets for safekeeping. Bitcoin withdrawals spiked during brief internet windows amid government blackouts. Chainalysis data reveals that half of the crypto volume involved state-linked actors like the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, while civilians used crypto to preserve savings and bypass traditional finance. The surge reflects crypto's dual role: a shelter for households and a channel for institutional fund movements during unrest.

Anthropic Just Released an "AI Job Disruption Report": The Higher the Education, the More "Disrupted"

Anthropic's latest "Economic Index Report" reveals a counterintuitive finding: AI accelerates work most dramatically in complex, high-skill tasks. While AI boosts speed by 9x for high-school-level tasks, this jumps to 12x for college-level work, indicating that knowledge-intensive roles are most impacted. The report highlights a critical shift towards "deskilling," where AI handles the analytical core of jobs, potentially leaving humans with diminished, routine tasks. However, effective human-AI collaboration extends AI's effective task horizon from 2 hours to 19 hours, showcasing a 10x improvement in handling complex projects. Globally, a divide exists: wealthier nations use AI for productivity enhancement, while poorer regions primarily use it for education. Anthropic forecasts AI could drive 1.0-1.2% annual US productivity growth, echoing 1990s tech boom levels. The key takeaway is that the future belongs not to those replaced by AI, but to those who master defining problems and collaborating with it.

Analyzing Iran’s crypto volumes in the face of recent geopolitical tensions

Amidst Iran's escalating geopolitical tensions and civil unrest, cryptocurrency activity has surged to a record $7.78 billion in 2025, as citizens turn to Bitcoin to hedge against the collapse of the Iranian rial. According to Chainalysis, large withdrawals of BTC to personal wallets increased significantly during protests, highlighting Bitcoin's role as a censorship-resistant asset for wealth preservation. While Iranians use crypto to escape economic crisis, the regime also leverages it, with the IRGC accounting for over 50% of crypto received. This dual dynamic underscores crypto's critical function in restricted economies.

Yen Weakness Triggers Inflation Red Line: Bank of Japan May Be Forced to Raise Rates Early

Japanese policymakers are increasingly concerned about the impact of the weak yen on inflation, which may force the Bank of Japan (BOJ) to consider earlier interest rate hikes. Although the BOJ is expected to keep rates unchanged at 0.75% in its upcoming January meeting, officials are closely monitoring how yen depreciation is amplifying price pressures, as businesses pass rising import costs to consumers. While the central bank recently raised rates in December and has no fixed timeline for further hikes, sustained yen weakness could accelerate the tightening cycle. Market expectations of a six-month hike interval may shift if the BOJ acts more promptly. The yen recently touched a 18-month low near 158.68 against the dollar, reflecting ongoing volatility and political uncertainty, including potential early elections. Business leaders have called for government intervention to curb excessive currency declines.

Trump Waved His Hand, Stirring the Gaming Hurricane in Venezuela

The article explores the unexpected connection between the political crisis in Venezuela and the online game RuneScape. Following the arrest of Venezuelan President Maduro, the game Old School RuneScape (OSRS) saw a record number of players. This is linked to a deeper story of how Venezuelans, facing extreme hyperinflation and poverty starting in 2013, turned to earning a living by playing OSRS. They would farm in-game currency (gold) by performing repetitive actions like killing monsters, which they then sold for cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin. This provided a more stable income than the collapsing national currency, with some players earning enough to support their families. Their presence became a well-known, albeit controversial, part of the game's economy and culture. However, by 2023, many Venezuelan players began to leave OSRS due to a drop in-game gold prices and increased competition from bots. Some moved to other games, while others used their earnings to physically escape the country, with mixed outcomes. Their story highlights how cryptocurrencies and virtual economies provided a rare lifeline for survival and a means of escape during a severe national economic collapse.

Here’s Why The Bitcoin, Ethereum, And Dogecoin Prices Are Surging Today

The prices of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin are surging due to a combination of positive U.S. economic data and potential regulatory progress. Key factors include the latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) report, which showed a moderate 0.3% monthly increase and a 2.7% annual rise, easing fears of aggressive Federal Reserve rate hikes. Additionally, a stronger-than-expected jobs report and the upcoming Senate vote on the CLARITY Act, aimed at providing clearer crypto regulations, have boosted investor confidence. As a result, Bitcoin rose over 3% to above $94,000, Ethereum surged more than 6% to over $3,300, and Dogecoin increased over 6% to $0.148.

Goldman Sachs Predicts 11% Return: How Far Can the Optimistic Cycle of Global Stock Markets Go?

Goldman Sachs Research forecasts an 11% total return (including dividends, in USD terms) for global equities over the next 12 months, anticipating a continued but more moderate bull market into 2026. While valuations are at historical highs following last year's strong performance, the rally is expected to be driven by corporate earnings growth and sustained economic expansion rather than further multiple expansion. A key theme is the importance of diversification. Investors benefited in 2025 from geographic diversification, a trend expected to continue and broaden to include factors (growth vs. value) and sectors. The analysis suggests the market is in an "optimism" phase of the cycle, which typically carries upside risk to valuations. The report highlights that while AI enthusiasm remains high, it does not constitute a bubble. The tech sector's dominance is supported by superior earnings growth, and the valuation gap between the largest tech stocks and the rest of the market is far smaller than during previous bubbles. Investors are advised to seek alpha opportunities through stock selection as correlations decrease and to consider non-tech companies that may benefit from AI-driven capital expenditure.

Goldman Sachs Predicts: Global Stock Markets Expected to Deliver 11% Return Over Next 12 Months

Goldman Sachs Research forecasts an 11% total return (including dividends, in USD) for global equities over the next 12 months, anticipating the bull market to continue into 2026. This growth is expected to be primarily driven by corporate earnings and economic expansion, rather than further valuation increases, as current valuations are already at historical highs across major markets. The report, led by Chief Global Equity Strategist Peter Oppenheimer, highlights that diversification was a key theme in 2025 and will remain crucial in 2026. Last year, investors benefited from geographic diversification, with non-US markets outperforming. This trend is expected to continue, extending to style (growth vs. value) and sector diversification. While the market is in an "optimism" phase of the cycle, the AI-driven tech rally is not considered a bubble, as valuations for the largest companies remain below extreme historical levels. The analysts also suggest that investors look for alpha opportunities in non-tech sectors and companies benefiting from tech capital expenditure and the broader adoption of AI.

Crypto jumps on U.S. CPI data as Trump urges Powell to cut interest rates

The latest U.S. CPI data showed annual inflation steady at 2.7% in December, reinforcing expectations that the Federal Reserve may cut interest rates later in 2026. Core CPI rose 2.6% year-over-year, indicating persistent but stable underlying inflation. Shelter costs remained a key driver, rising 0.4% monthly. Following the report, the crypto market added roughly $27 billion, with Bitcoin climbing above $91,000. Former President Trump urged the Fed to cut rates, citing strong economic conditions. Stable inflation near the Fed’s target supports the case for eventual monetary easing, improving liquidity and benefiting risk assets like cryptocurrencies.

80% of Oil Revenue Settled in USDT, Stablecoin Becomes Venezuela's 'Second Dollar'

Summary: Venezuela's state oil company PDVSA now uses Tether's USDT stablecoin to settle approximately 80% of its oil export revenue, a strategic shift to circumvent U.S. sanctions. This move has cemented USDT's role as a "second dollar" in the country's economy. While it serves as a critical financial lifeline for citizens grappling with hyperinflation and the collapse of the bolivar, it also functions as a tool for the government to bypass traditional banking systems. The dual-use nature of stablecoins is highlighted: they provide essential stability for everyday transactions and remittances for the populace, yet simultaneously enable sanctioned entities to evade financial oversight. Despite the recent arrest of former President Nicolás Maduro, the pervasive use of USDT is expected to continue due to Venezuela's ongoing economic instability.
