Vida, founder of BWENEWS, recently reviewed his trading process during the BROCCOLI714 abnormal price surge, stating that he detected the extreme price anomaly in BROCCOLI714 immediately by using pre-set alerts for short-term price increases in altcoins and monitoring spot and futures price spreads. He pointed out that after checking Binance's spot order book, he found that with a market capitalization of only about $40 million, spot buy orders once exceeded $20 million, which clearly did not conform to normal market manipulation logic and was more likely to be due to account theft or abnormal market-making program behavior. The trader stated that after confirming that the spot price was continuously driven up by abnormal funds and the futures price was suppressed by the circuit breaker mechanism, he first closed his original arbitrage position based on funding rates, locking in about $300,000 in profit; subsequently, after the Binance futures circuit breaker was lifted, he added to his long position at about $0.046, and continued to monitor the order book changes, anticipating that the abnormal buy orders might be withdrawn by risk control at any time. After the initial cancellation of spot buy orders, the trader chose to liquidate all spot and long positions, cashing out approximately $1.5 million. The trader further stated that after confirming the complete withdrawal of the abnormal buy orders, a short position was established on the contract side, and closed after a significant price drop, completing the second phase of the trade. The trader summarized that the key to this operation was the automated early warning mechanism, rapid identification of abnormal order book behavior, and the anticipation and patient execution of the scenario that "abnormal price manipulation inevitably leads to a pullback." Previous news: A market maker's Binance account was suspected of being hacked, resulting in an abnormal price surge in BROCCOLI714-USDT spot trading.

According to CryptoSlate, the Ethereum network performed strongly in 2025, processing record transaction volumes and dominating the DeFi market (mainnet TVL accounting for 64%). However, the price of ETH fell 10% throughout the year to below $3,000, decoupling from network activity. This was due to Ethereum proactively reducing transaction fees through technical upgrades to promote the growth of the L2 network and the expansion of the entire ecosystem, resulting in a significant drop in mainnet revenue. Total L2 revenue decreased by 53% to $129 million in 2025, but fees paid to the mainnet plummeted to only $10 million, allowing L2 operators to retain approximately $119 million in profit. This means that the Ethereum mainnet "sacrificed" over $100 million in potential revenue (a decrease of approximately $103 million compared to 2024) to subsidize ecosystem growth.

According to Foresight News, a16z crypto has unveiled 17 industry projections for 2026, highlighting significant advancements in the cryptocurrency sector. The report anticipates improvements in stablecoin recharge and redemption channels, aligning with crypto-native principles for tokenizing real-world assets and stablecoins. It also foresees stablecoins initiating a cycle of bank ledger upgrades, leading to new payment scenarios and the transformation of the internet into a banking platform, alongside universal wealth management. The outlook further includes a shift from 'Know Your Customer' (KYC) to 'Know Your Agent' (KYA), leveraging artificial intelligence for substantial research tasks, and addressing hidden tax burdens on open networks. Privacy is expected to become a crucial moat in the crypto domain, while the near-term future of instant messaging aims to resist quantum computing and achieve decentralization. The concept of 'Secret as a Service' is introduced, transitioning from 'Code as Law' to 'Norms as Law'. Additionally, the report predicts the expansion and intelligent development of prediction markets, the rise of staking media, and the application of cryptographic technology beyond blockchain. It envisions trading as a transit point rather than a final destination for crypto enterprises. The full potential of blockchain is expected to be realized when legal frameworks align with technological architectures.

According to PANews, an analysis by Murphy on the X platform discusses the impact of ancient ETH tokens, acquired at costs below $400, on the market. The analysis highlights that ETF and DAT companies have absorbed 12.05 million ETH in this cycle, suggesting that without their intervention, ETH prices might have been more adversely affected. Tokens held for over five years, with costs under $400, remain highly active, especially when prices approach or exceed $4,000. Currently, these tokens account for 20 million ETH, or 17% of the total circulation. Similarly, BTC tokens acquired at costs below $1,000 account for 3.79 million, or 18.9% of total circulation. However, unlike ETH, 1 million of these BTC tokens belong to Satoshi Nakamoto, and most of the remainder are lost, resulting in lower activity compared to ETH due to stronger community consensus. The analysis suggests that with the existing ETF and DAT configurations, introducing new narratives and innovations could potentially consume half of the remaining 20 million ancient ETH tokens, leading to a significant price increase for ETH.
