📊Breaking: Fed Minutes signal hold for now, but path still conditional.
The Minutes from the January 27–28 meeting showed that almost all participants favoured holding rates steady, with only a couple preferring a cut. The pause, however, did not close the door on easing.
Several policymakers reportedly commented that further rate cuts would likely be appropriate if inflation declined in line with their expectations.
At the same time, the Committee made clear it is not operating with a one-way bias.
Several participants said they would have supported describing future decisions in more two-sided terms, reflecting the possibility that hikes could be appropriate if inflation remained above target. In other words, the reaction function remains flexible.
Today, crypto doesn't need new projects, especially L1 networks.
Literally, every new L1 project has failed in the last year.
This is because the market has reached saturation; what's already there is enough and needs only development.
A network and coin like SOL has literally reached a major milestone, captured a huge market share, and crushed all the competitors who tried to emerge.
Choose your coins wisely. Today, the market has matured and changed; what's already there is enough, and new ones have no value.
The price of PEPE is gradually declining towards the FVG 4h zone in the range of $0.0003980 - $0.0004170. If the price reaches this zone and shows a reaction, it will be an excellent entry point for a long position. The main target for price growth is liquidity at current highs above the $0.005100 level.

Markets don't react to news… they react to the risk profile.
With escalating geopolitical tensions between the US and Iran, markets didn't wait for official data or statements. They moved immediately according to their fundamental logic: risk repricing.
In just one session:
• Gold rose 1.6% • Silver rose 4.3% • Oil climbed 2.66% • Bitcoin fell 1%
These movements don't reflect short-term speculation, but rather a rapid shift of capital from risk-sensitive assets to those historically used as safe havens.
Gold and silver aren't rising because the economy is strong, but because uncertainty is widening.
Oil isn't rising solely due to demand, but because the market is beginning to price in supply risks. And cryptocurrencies, despite the “hedging” rhetoric, are still treated as high-risk assets at the first real geopolitical test.
More important than the numbers is the message: Markets sense that the level of geopolitical risk has entered a new phase, even if it hasn't yet made headlines.
📊Tesla Inc: The electric vehicle maker will avoid a 30-day suspension of its dealer and manufacturer licenses in California after the company stopped using the term "autopilot" in marketing of its vehicles in the state, a regulator said on Tuesday.
Traders, no distraction today. The calendar presents us with a deadly sequence of events that will shake up the EUR, GBP, and USD.
🕓 The Volatility Timeline:
1:00 PM: 🇬🇧 BOE Rate Decision: The Bank of England decides on rates (expected 3.75%). 1:30 PM: 🇬🇧 BOE Gov. Bailey Speaks: Pay attention to the Governor's words. 2:15 PM: 🇪🇺 ECB Interest Rate: It's Europe's turn. Rates expected at 2.15%. 2:45 PM: 🇪🇺 ECB Press Conference: Lagarde will speak live. The euro will really move here.
🇺🇸 The US Wildcard at 2:30 PM: Exactly between the two European events, the US Unemployment Benefits (Claims) are released. It's an explosive mix.
The price of XLM continues to be in an upward trend. If, during its movement, the price tests the FVG 4h zone in the range of $0.1580 - $0.1610, this will be the optimal entry point for a long position. The main target for growth is the current maximum at $0.1850.
Stablecoin supply has remained flat since October, ETF inflows have turned negative, DAT inflows have stalled, and the volume of funds raised has returned to bear market levels. When inflows from all major sources simultaneously slow, price movement typically follows.
The only real factors that could be driving this are the accumulation of RWAs, the gradual return of major players to DeFi, and the potential positive impact of the CLARITY Act.
If these three factors don't lead to real capital inflows, the situation will remain devoid of liquidity.
The tariff file is at a breaking point… and one decision could upend the markets.
Markets are pricing in a high probability that the Supreme Court will rule the tariffs imposed under the Trump administration’s “emergency” declaration unconstitutional—the opposite scenario is currently considered unlikely.
A ruling of invalidity would open the floodgates to massive compensation claims from affected companies and countries… unofficial estimates put the bill in the trillions of dollars—a direct blow to US finances.
📌 Potential shock effect on markets:
▪️ Stocks: A strong boost due to lower import costs and improved corporate margins.
🔥🚨 Everyone, pay close attention because this news is anything but ordinary and could shake the entire landscape in America!
Imagine that there's a huge probability, as high as 74%, that the US Supreme Court will issue a ruling that will turn the tables and declare the tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump illegal!
We're not talking about a simple prediction… this is a very strong number that makes the outcome almost certain. If the decision is indeed issued in this manner, we could witness a real political and economic earthquake that will shake the markets and completely recalculate global trade!
The impact won't be limited to America… the effect could extend to global markets, currencies, and even investment flows, because any change in US tariff policy creates shockwaves around the entire world!
🔥 In short: one decision could open the door to a completely new era in the global economy and politics… and everyone is now waiting for the decisive moment.
Moonwell loses $1.78m due to AI-generated code flaw
Moonwell protocol was exploited for $1.78m after vulnerable code was reportedly generated by the Claude Opus 4.6 model.
A bug in the oracle pricing formula caused #cbETH to be valued at $1.12 instead of the actual ~$2,200.
The incident highlights the risks of deploying AI-generated code in DeFi environments, where pricing logic errors can directly translate into financial losses.
The APT price is accumulating above the $0.90 level. If the price remains above this level during the correction, an upward movement will begin with the goal of reaching the equal highs at $1.
O Allah, bring it upon us with ease, blessings, and prosperity, and grant us many more years of it in good health and well-being, O Lord of the Worlds.
If price reacts to support with confirmation, futures positions can be considered with stops placed below the zone 📌
After a clean breakout and consolidation above $93.5, a Buy setup becomes valid targeting the $123 area, with stop-loss placed back inside the broken zone.
After this extended corrective phase, I expect SOL to deliver a relief move from support. If no major macro event interferes, continuation toward higher resistance levels becomes probable.
As long as the weekly candle does not close below $67, the broader bullish structure remains intact.
