ChainCatcher news, according to Jinshi reports, Chief Economist Cheng Shi of ICBC International stated at the 2025 China Chief Economist Forum Annual Meeting that the adjustment path of U.S. monetary policy in 2025 will be a "first urgent, then gradual" process. Currently, it is expected that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates by about 50-75 basis points in 2025.Cheng Shi indicated that the re-inflation risks faced by the U.S. can be viewed from two dimensions: first, the current U.S. inflation is in a zone where it is easy to rise but difficult to fall, and there is very little room for further decline, making it quite challenging. In fact, there are many potential factors that could drive U.S. inflation upward. Second, the current market has formed an upward expectation for U.S. inflation, and inflation expectations tend to be self-fulfilling, which will create substantial upward pressure on inflation.

ChainCatcher news, trader Eugene Ng Ah Sio posted on social media, "In an era of high prices, finding new ideas is indeed challenging. How do you build confidence in a project that has already risen 10 times from the bottom?My framework for building confidence can be summarized as follows:Represents a completely new idea ------ this can be achieved through a new vertical, a new product or service, or even a new token economic model (like a Ponzi model).Look for newer names, with fewer holders and smaller unrealized gains for existing holders ------ this is why new coins often perform better than old coins, as they have no natural resistance levels and no inflation or sell-off pressure.Seek theoretically unlimited valuation ceilings ------ this is why meme coins perform so well, as they are unvalued.Now, there is a token that reasonably meets all these criteria in some aspects."

ChainCatcher news, BTCFi project Solv Protocol co-founder Ryan Chow stated, "After experiencing a whole day of baseless public opinion attacks regarding '1,800 RUG' and 'private agreements' yesterday, today Solv has faced even more absurd accusations. These accusations invariably target the core asset security issues, but their basis is erroneous and contradictory, attempting to mislead the public through confusion. In response, we have decided to address these claims head-on and shatter these false statements with facts."Regarding the accusation from Nubit co-founder Hans about the misappropriation of the underlying BTC of SolvBTC.BBN, Chow pointed out that the mempool transactions cited by the other party are actually routine operations of SolvBTC.CORE. According to the project mechanism, SolvBTC.CORE needs to re-stake BTC to a new script address every half month, with the last staking occurring on December 19, and the extraction and re-staking taking place on January 2, which is also the reason for updating the address to DeFiLlama.Additionally, in response to the doubts about the decline in TVL of SolvBTC.BBN during Babylon Cap3, Chow stated that this is due to the project initiating a normal redemption mechanism, which precisely reflects the product's liquidity and flexibility. At the same time, he also refuted market speculation regarding the "BTC three flowers," which suggests that the same BTC is counted three times in the TVL.Chow emphasized that as a project that has been deeply engaged for four years, Solv is facing such a meticulously planned attack during the sensitive period leading up to the TGE (Token Generation Event), and has provided ample on-chain evidence and technical documentation to support its position, inviting the market and users to make their own judgments.

The current Bitcoin hash rate hovers around 823 EH/s, and once Cango's 50 EH/s is fully online, it will contribute approximately 6% of the hash rate behind Bitcoin.

Cango purchased the first batch of 32 EH/s of computing power from Bitcoin mining manufacturer Bitmain for $256 million in cash and will issue $144 million worth of stock for the remaining 18 EH/s.
