Tom Lee, Chairman of BitMine, stated in an article on the X platform that many institutional investors typically exit the market during the final holiday trading period of the year, shifting market dominance to algorithmic and bot trading programs. This, coupled with year-end selling driven by tax avoidance needs, contributes to the market dynamics in the last few days of December. Previously, when BitMine disclosed its purchase of 44,463 ETH last week, Lee also pointed out that as the year-end holidays approach, overall market activity tends to decline, and tax-avoidance selling can exert temporary downward pressure on cryptocurrency and related stock prices. This impact is typically most pronounced between December 26th and December 30th, and BitMine is adjusting its market strategy based on this seasonal characteristic.

Trader CBB posted on the X platform that people spent months promoting a certain token, but the token's valuation failed to break $3 billion within 24 hours of its launch after being fully diluted, and he called the token a pure junk coin.

According to Onchain Lens monitoring, Bitmine (@BitMNR) has staked an additional 118,944 ETH, worth $352.16 million. Currently, Bitmine has staked a total of 461,504 ETH, with a total value of $1.37 billion. In addition, a newly created wallet received 32,938 ETH from FalconX, worth $97.8 million; this address likely belongs to Bitmine.

According to Foresight News, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has reiterated its concerns about the widespread adoption of global stablecoins in its latest Financial Stability Report. The RBI highlighted that the risks posed by stablecoins to macro-financial stability outweigh their purported benefits. The central bank maintains a cautious stance towards crypto assets, including stablecoins, and strongly advocates for countries to prioritize the development of central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) over privately issued stablecoins to ensure financial stability and maintain trust in currency. Additionally, the report forecasts a decline in the gross non-performing asset (GNPA) ratio of Indian banks, expected to decrease from 2.1% at the end of September 2025 to 1.9% by the end of March 2027. However, non-bank financial companies (NBFCs) are showing signs of increased risk, with their GNPA ratio projected to rise from 2.3% in September 2025 to 2.9% by September 2026.

XRP has recorded a notable surge in one of its most closely watched derivative indicators, which brings attention to how traders are positioning around the asset. Data shows that open interest tied to XRP derivatives jumped by about 80% within a very short four-hour window in the recent trading day, pointing to a sudden influx of leveraged activity. Moves of this magnitude rarely happen in isolation and often point to growing tension beneath the surface of price action, especially when they occur without a clean breakout on the chart.

Binance Blog published a new article, addressing a significant security breach on the Flow (FLOW) network that occurred on 2025-12-27. A hacker exploited vulnerabilities within the system, leading to the unauthorized minting of a substantial number of tokens. In response to this incident, Binance took immediate action to protect its users and the broader community by tracing and freezing the hacker’s remaining funds on its platform. These measures were implemented to minimize damage and safeguard the interests of Flow token holders. Despite Binance's proactive approach, the Flow project team has not engaged in meaningful communication or collaboration since the hack occurred. Binance has made multiple attempts to reach out and offer support, but these efforts have not been reciprocated. It is crucial that if the Flow project team decides to pursue an isolated recovery solution, centralized exchange addresses, including Binance’s wallets, should be excluded from this process. This is because affected users on various centralized exchange platforms have already been credited accordingly. Binance urges the Flow project team to provide a comprehensive post-mortem report detailing the root cause of the hack and outlining the measures they will implement to prevent similar incidents in the future. Binance remains ready to offer security support if needed to help bolster the Flow ecosystem’s defenses. To our valued users, Binance is committed to supporting those affected by this incident and will work diligently to provide the necessary assistance to protect your assets and maintain your trust. We remain dedicated to transparency and will continue to keep you updated as the situation evolves. Thank you for your support!

Former Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao said Pakistan could become a leading global crypto hub by 2030 if it continues its fast pace of regulation and adoption. The country has set up a crypto authority, allowed major exchanges to operate, built a Bitcoin reserve, and is exploring tokenisation to attract foreign investment.
