Analysis of the crypto market rebound and underlying risks, based on data for the week of Dec 20-26. Bitcoin found technical support at the $85,000 level, bouncing from a low of $84,500. While a technical rebound is underway, key data suggests the market is not yet on a solid footing for a sustained trend reversal. Key short-term data points show mixed picture: * **Stablecoins:** Net issuance remained negative at -$326M, but the outflow rate slowed by 60% week-over-week. * **BTC ETFs:** Net outflows worsened significantly to -$664.37M, a crucial headwind. A return to net inflows is deemed essential for a true reversal. * **OTC Premiums:** USDT and USDC premiums fell to 97.86% and 98.36% respectively, indicating weak demand and persistent capital outflows. * **ETH ETFs:** Outflows narrowed considerably to -$139.53M from the previous week, providing some relative stability for Ethereum. Mid-term on-chain data revealed minor accumulation by addresses holding 100-1K BTC, while larger wallets (10K-100K BTC) reduced holdings. Strong筹码 accumulation was noted near the $87,100 price point, suggesting it could become a key support level. The altcoin market (TOTAL3) saw a modest 1.95% gain but overall sentiment remained weak. Key observations include: * Low trading activity and a subdued market sentiment index. * BTC dominance held high at 65.76%, indicating altcoins continue to underperform Bitcoin. * Meme coins and high-profile tokens saw sporadic gains, but lacked s...

Last week, the market showed a downward trend, and the technical support level of $85,000 we previously emphasized proved effective. After BTC touched a low of $84,500 on Friday, it began a rebound this week. From both daily and weekly perspectives, the support level of $85,000 was validated after the previous continuous decline. Over the weekend, the market maintained its rebound momentum, showing an overall pattern of fluctuating recovery.

2. Mid- to Short-Term Data Changes Affecting the Market This Week

2.1 Stablecoin Fund Flows

This week (12/20-12/26), the weekly issuance of stablecoins was -$326 million, indicating continued outflow of funds, but the scale of outflow has significantly narrowed. Compared to last week's negative issuance of -$824 million, the average daily negative issuance this week decreased from -$117.7 million to -$46.5 million, representing a 60% increase in overall fund flow. The broader market was mainly volatile this week without sustained declines, which aligns with the trend of reduced stablecoin outflows.

2.2 ETF Fund Flows

This week, the net outflow of Bitcoin ETFs further expanded, reaching $664.37 million, an increase of $374.72 million compared to last week. Based on daily fund flow data, there is no sign of a regular reduction in ETF net outflows yet. Although BTC prices have rebounded, this can only be characterized as a short-term technical rebound. For the market to achieve a trend reversal, the return of Bitcoin ETFs to net inflows is a core prerequisite.

2.3 Off-Market Discount/Premium

This week, the off-market discount/premium rates for USDT and USDC slightly declined. The current USDT discount/premium is 97.86%, and USDC is 98.36%, both at relatively low levels for the year. This phenomenon reflects continued低迷 market sentiment, insufficient off-market funds for bargain hunting, and some signs of capital outflow.

2.4 Ethereum ETF

This week, the net outflow of Ethereum ETFs was -$139.53 million, a significant reduction compared to last week's net outflow of $587.5 million. Ethereum prices showed volatile movements this week without sustained declines, echoing the narrowed ETF outflows. If this trend can be maintained, it will provide strong support for Ethereum's rebound.

2.5 Total Crypto Market Capitalization

This week, the total crypto market capitalization fell to around $3 trillion, precisely touching the weekly EMA100 moving average. The indicator currently shows a weekly oversold signal. Combined with the historical performance of weekly oversold signals since 2021, the market has the potential for a rebound from a technical perspective.

3. Mid-Term Data Changes Affecting the Market This Week

Holding Address Distribution and URPD

In terms of Bitcoin holding address distribution, the proportion of addresses holding 100-1K BTC increased from 25.813% to 25.951%, showing a slight accumulation trend. The proportion of addresses holding 10K-100K BTC decreased from 11.341% to 11.146%, indicating some reduction. The proportion of addresses holding 1K-10K BTC slightly increased from 20.972% to 21.022%, showing overall minor fluctuations.

Regarding BTC筹码结构 (chip structure), the accumulation of筹码 in the $83,300-$87,100 price range increased from 9.03% of total supply to 9.93%, a rise of 0.9 percentage points. Specifically, the accumulation near $87,100 reached 3.15% of total supply, showing significant turnover compared to last week and intense battle between bulls and bears. This price level is expected to form strong support going forward.

4. Altcoin Market Analysis

This altcoin market analysis will be conducted from three main sections: Market Overview, Secondary Market Performance, and Primary Market Data, providing a comprehensive view of the current altcoin market dynamics.

4.1 Market Overview

Altcoin Market Capitalization

This Friday, TOTAL3 (total market cap excluding BTC and ETH) reached $822.3 billion, a环比 (week-on-week) increase of 1.95%. BTC traded in a narrow range around $88,000 this week, with low volatility. Despite continued rebounds in US stocks and A-shares, BTC did not follow suit, while commodity markets performed strongly. From a fund flow perspective, BTC still ranks lower in traditional financial allocation systems. In the absence of significant incremental funds, it is likely to maintain range-bound fluctuations.

On-Chain TVL Overview

The total on-chain TVL reached $117.5 billion, a环比 increase of 1.29%, showing an overall volatile trend. The amount of ETH staked remained stable, with a trend of fluctuating upward, reflecting relatively solid confidence among long-term holders.

Stablecoin Market Cap and Exchange Reserves

The total stablecoin market cap was $286 billion, a环比 decrease of 0.28%, with fiat-backed stablecoins experiencing a net outflow of $800 million. The current crypto market performance is disconnected from traditional financial markets, showing relative weakness. Market sentiment has not明显恢复 (significantly recovered), with a strong wait-and-see atmosphere. Exchange stablecoin balances slightly decreased this week, and there was no stablecoin inflow during BTC's rebound, indicating the market has not fully stabilized.

<极速div>

Altcoin Index and Market Sentiment

This Friday, the altcoin index was 16. Major altcoins maintained low-level fluctuations, with low market trading activity. The market sentiment index rose to 27, an improvement from last week.个别 (Individual) altcoins performed actively, but overall热度 (heat) was insufficient.

Altcoin Overview

This week, the altcoin market showed an overall volatile pattern, with some tokens逆势走高 (rising against the trend). Benefiting from marginally improved stock market sentiment, the short-term sentiment and downside space of the crypto market received some support. Better-performing tokens were mainly concentrated in small-cap MEME coins and high-profile hot tokens, but the sustainability of the rally was weak, making it difficult to form sector联动效应 (linkage effects).

Top-Selling Indicator and Altcoin Heat

This week, the top-selling indicator did not trigger an alarm, but the proportion of short-term BTC holders increased significantly, approaching the warning threshold. Caution is needed against short-term correction risks. From the perspective of funding rates, most altcoins still had negative rates this week, but overall showed a marginal improvement trend, indicating a slight回暖 (recovery) in market speculation sentiment.

4.2 Secondary Market Analysis

4.2.1 Altcoin Strength Analysis

BTC's market share this week was 65.76%, a环比 increase of 0.1%, maintaining recent high-level fluctuations. Mainstream exchange rate pairs like SOL/BTC, ETH/BTC, and BNB/BTC fluctuated lower this week, overall still in a volatile or volatile downward channel. The weak pattern of altcoins relative to BTC has not significantly changed.

4.2.2 Market Flow

In terms of sector performance, gains and losses were differentiated this week. The RWA and PerpDEX sectors led the gains, becoming the market focus. These two sectors align with long-term market development trends and continue to attract fund attention. Regarding institutional funds, BTC and ETH ETFs continued outflows this week, with no signs of stabilization yet. Data company Bitmine did not conduct relevant purchase operations this week, indicating low institutional participation.

4.3 Primary Market Data Analysis

4.3.1 Status of the Four Major Public Chains

This week, the TVL of the four major public chains showed a slight upward trend, but the increase was lower than the price increase. Among them, ETH TVL rose from $67.2 billion to $68.1 billion, a环比 increase of 1.48%. SOL and BSC TVL remained stable at $8.3 billion and $6.4 billion, respectively. BASE TVL increased from $4.2 billion to $4.4 billion, a环比 increase of 4.76%, performing relatively突出 (outstandingly).

4.3.2 On-Chain Data Analysis

On-Chain Asset Flows

This week, USDT issuance led, while USDC experienced significant outflows. CEX funds continued to withdraw substantially, indicating that short-term market liquidity remains tight. In terms of DeFi bridge asset flows, the ETH chain had the largest net inflow, while the ARB chain had the most outflows. Overall fund flow规模 (scale) was small, and market volatility narrowed rapidly.

On-Chain User Activity and Speculative Sentiment

This week, on-chain user activity was generally average but showed a marginal improvement trend. DEX protocol revenue, active user numbers, and trading volume increased slightly环比, but overall热度 was not high, with limited gains. Market speculative sentiment is still in a low-level repair stage.

On-Chain Boom-Bust Index

Combining the TVL changes of the four major public chains and on-chain data performance, a weighted summary forms the On-Chain Boom-Bust Index (out of 100). The specific range definitions are as follows:

Extreme Prosperity: 80 points and above

Rising Line: 60-79 points

Recession Line: 50-59 points

Can DeepSeek Save China One Trillion Dollars?

"DeepSeek and the $1 Trillion Infrastructure Question" The article examines whether DeepSeek's AI optimization breakthroughs could potentially save China $1 trillion in future AI infrastructure costs. The analysis begins with Nvidia's upcoming Vera Rubin AI platform, costing ~$7.8 million, where memory (HBM4/LPDDR5X) constitutes $2 million—a 435% cost increase in one year, highlighting how AI hardware spending is shifting toward expensive memory components. DeepSeek's approach works in the opposite direction. Through three key technical innovations showcased in DeepSeek V4, the company dramatically improves hardware efficiency: 1. **Memory Compression (MLA)**: Re-engineers the attention mechanism to compress long-context memory (KV Cache) by over 90%, drastically reducing expensive HBM usage. 2. **Selective Activation (MoE)**: Employs Mixture-of-Experts architecture where only a small fraction of parameters (e.g., 49B out of 1.6T in V4-Pro) are activated per token, allowing most parameters to reside in cheaper memory/SSD. 3. **Computation Caching**: Reuses previously computed results via cache hits, replacing expensive GPU computations with cheap memory reads. Combined, these optimizations allow the same hardware to produce approximately 4x more tokens, effectively reducing required hardware investment by 75%. DeepSeek's pricing reflects this: a 10-billion token workload costs ~$522 monthly versus ~$9,000-$10,000 for competitors. The $1 trillion savings projection stems from McKinsey's estimate that global AI infrastructure will require ~$5.2 trillion investment by 2030. As China's daily token consumption grows toward quadrillions, even marginal efficiency gains scale massively. With a conservative 4x throughput improvement, China could avoid building tens of thousands of AI data centers equivalent to ~7 trillion RMB ($1 trillion) in saved investment. Critically, this strategy shifts dependency from scarce, expensive GPU/HBM—where China lags—toward more accessible storage, caching, and systems engineering where domestic suppliers like CXMT are gaining strength. Rather than "replacing Nvidia," DeepSeek rebalances AI's value chain away from monolithic hardware dependency. Ultimately, DeepSeek's technical breakthroughs could lower the barrier to AI adoption across Chinese industries by making advanced capabilities affordable at scale—transforming who can access next-generation AI.

Overturning the Mainstream Approach to Hallucinations: Metacognition is the New Solution for Large Models to Break the Hallucination Barrier

This paper, "Hallucinations Undermine Trust; Metacognition is a Way Forward," proposes a paradigm shift in combating AI hallucination. It argues that the current mainstream approaches—striving for omniscience by scaling data/models or having AI abstain from uncertain answers—are fundamentally flawed. The former has inevitable knowledge gaps, while the latter imposes a crippling "utility tax," requiring the rejection of many correct answers to achieve high accuracy, due to models' poor "discrimination" (the ability to distinguish correct from incorrect answers internally). The core contribution is redefining hallucination not as "being wrong," but as "expressing false information with unwarranted certainty." The proposed solution is **Faithful Uncertainty** or **Metacognition**: enabling AI to accurately perceive its internal uncertainty and honestly express it in its language (e.g., using hedging phrases when unsure). This creates a more reliable assistant that provides useful information while signaling its confidence, minimizing harm from errors. The paper emphasizes that metacognition is critical for the era of AI Agents. Without it, Agents cannot intelligently decide when to use tools like search engines, leading to inefficiency and misuse. Key implementation challenges are highlighted: the "bootstrapping paradox" of training with static uncertainty data, the "alignment distortion signal" where human preference training suppresses internal uncertainty cues, and the difficulty of causally evaluating true metacognition vs. its superficial imitation. The paper concludes that the goal should not be an infallible AI, but one that is honest about the limits of its knowledge, thereby building user trust through transparent communication of its certainty.

Hedge by Buying Gold and Oil, Chase Soaring Returns with AI. ‘Dated’ Bitcoin Enters a Bear Market

Bitcoin has recently declined, hitting a two-month low near $66,123, while Ethereum fell to a three-month low around $1,837. Analysts suggest the drop is not merely due to factors like ETF outflows or MicroStrategy's selling but reflects a deeper issue: Bitcoin is losing a broader asset competition. In a near-zero interest rate environment, Bitcoin previously thrived as an outlet for investor dissatisfaction with inflation and limited options. However, the market landscape has shifted. Bitcoin now occupies an "awkward middle ground," facing competition on three fronts. For inflation hedging, investors prefer gold, energy stocks, and commodity producers—assets with tangible backing and clearer pricing power. For growth exposure, AI-related companies with actual revenues and profits are more attractive. Even within crypto, investors can choose stablecoins, exchanges, or infrastructure firms tied directly to adoption, offering clearer business models and leverage. Thus, Bitcoin is no longer the top choice for hedging, growth, or crypto exposure. This shift is evident in market reactions: despite recent warnings about persistent inflation from a Fed official, Bitcoin did not rally as it might have in the past. Instead, capital flowed to assets with direct commodity or energy exposure. The recent ETF outflows and MicroStrategy sales are symptoms, not causes, of this new reality. Investors are becoming more selective, demanding clearer value propositions beyond mere scarcity. The emerging bear case for Bitcoin is not about it being a bubble or failed technology, but that scarcity alone is no longer sufficient.
