ChainCatcher news, QCP Capital stated in an official channel that given the strong upward trend of Bitcoin since the U.S. elections, it believes that a target price of $100,000 to $120,000 may not be far off. As the market prepares for the next rally, it is important to note the following trends and risk factors:Due to many large participants preparing for it and selling call options during the rally, implied volatility has been declining. With each new high, trading desks have observed the market selling call options and buying put options to hedge against downside risks.The market remains highly leveraged, especially in altcoins, where significant leverage has pushed the perpetual funding rate (1 year) up to 50-100%. Therefore, the risk of deleveraging could be quite substantial, particularly for altcoins.QCP Capital believes that the potential strength of BTC represents a systemic shift in the market in anticipation of Trump's return to the White House. The idea of initiating strategic BTC reserves and rotating from gold to BTC provides a strong bullish perspective that could support BTC prices.

ChainCatcher on-site report****,**** io.net Asia-Pacific Regional Head Asa, Multiple Network APEC Director Frank, Olares Partner Cryptobird, Network3 Marketing Head Eliza, and Open Data Labs CEO and Vana Co-founder Anna Kazlauskas jointly attended "DeInsight 2024" and engaged in an in-depth discussion on the development challenges, incentive models, and future trends of decentralized AI & Depin in a roundtable titled "New Forces in Decentralized AI & Depin."Asa stated that the biggest challenge faced by io.net in its early days was balancing decentralization with reliability. When its network allows anyone, any hardware, and any account to enter, ensuring there are no fake accounts and maintaining network performance is no easy task.Anna Kazlauskas mentioned the challenge of oversupply on the supply side. When a value network built on a large amount of computing power, data, and other resources cannot ensure alignment with the demand side, the actual assets behind it may hold no value.Regarding the industry issue of oversupply on the supply side, Frank mentioned that Multiple Network suggests distinguishing whether devices in decentralized AI projects are in standby or working status and using targeted token incentives to reduce unnecessary consumption on the supply side and lower token output.The guests generally believe that the decentralized AI & Depin industry is in its early stages and has not yet found widely accepted and recognized application scenarios. Eliza shared a marketing perspective, noting that decentralized AI & Depin often face competitors in the traditional IoT and consumer markets. Providing users with more practical scenarios that allow them to use and benefit directly is a key issue for the next stage.Additionally, the guests commonly mentioned the challenges faced by decentralized AI & Depin projects in protecting user privacy data.Remote participation👉Video live link: https://www.youtube.com/live/tTVcUPumPysImage live link: https://www.pailixiang.com/album_ia7637038926.html(Source link)

ChainCatcher news, according to News.bitcoin, economist and gold advocate Peter Schiff harshly criticized Trump's economic policies on the social media platform X this week, highlighting the risks he sees in current financial practices and some unfulfilled promises.Schiff believes that the optimism surrounding the "Trump-induced economic boom" is misguided, pointing out that potential economic vulnerabilities could undermine this positive outlook. He stated that tax cuts are likely to continue, but corresponding spending cuts are almost certain not to happen.Schiff further warned that uncontrolled deficits could prompt the Federal Reserve to re-implement quantitative easing, leading to increased inflation. For those concerned about inflationary pressures, Schiff suggested that "Trump's best deal right now is to buy when gold and gold mining stocks are down," believing that gold is a stable asset during times of economic uncertainty.

ChainCatcher message, CICC research report points out that by mid-2025, U.S. inflation and economic data may gradually recover, and the pace of interest rate cuts may gradually stop. With Trump's election, the risk of interest rate increases is greater than the risk of decreases, and a 100bps rate cut may be an appropriate magnitude.The market's expectations for the future path of interest rate cuts are currently experiencing a swing from one extreme to another, influenced by recent economic data, especially after the election. In terms of rhythm, inflation and economic data may gradually rebound by mid-2025, leading to a gradual halt in interest rate cuts.CICC estimates that inflation in the fourth quarter of this year will show a year-on-year increase due to base effects, but driven by the decline in rents, inflation and core inflation are unlikely to face significant pressure in the first quarter of 2025. In terms of magnitude, a rate cut to around 3.5% is a reasonable level.
