Goldman Sachs has pushed back its forecast for the Federal Reserve's first rate cut from March to June 2026. The delay follows December's jobs data, which showed slow hiring but a resilient labor market with a falling unemployment rate. The bank now expects the Fed to adopt a more patient approach, forecasting only two quarter-point cuts later in the year.

Tom Lee's Ethereum staking platform, Bitmine, added 24,266 ETH to its holdings.

Morgan Stanley filed an SEC registration for an Ethereum Trust, following recent bitcoin and Solana ETF paperwork amid rapid U.S. crypto ETF growth.

The CLNK ETF offers direct exposure to Chainlink, outlines custody with Coinbase, fee waivers, and potential future staking plans.

VENEZUELA SITUATION: INFINITYHEDGE

>OIL :
*While Venezuela holds largest est. oil reserves in world on paper (17% of global reserves/300b barrels) but it's really goes btw 80B to 300B barrels depending on the price of oil (technically recoverable but not economically viable, due to extra-heavy crude, expensive to extract & refine)

*Currently, it produces ~800kb/d (due to Blockade but was ~1Mbpd for 2025 on avg). Production could rise by ~150kb/d within a few months if sanctions are lifted but getting back to 2Mb/d or higher would require nearly a decade & $60B-$100B+ in investment over that period

*Trump officials have told oil companies in recent weeks that if they want compensation for their seized rigs, & other property, they must be prepared to return to Venezuela & invest billions to rebuild the oil infra

*Any companies considering investment would need to address security concerns, dilapidated infra, questions about the legality of the US operation to remove Maduro, & potential for long-term political instability. American firms won't return until they have certainty of payment & at least minimal security guarantees. Chevron is the only oil major still operating in Venezuela

Impact on oil:
*US Keeps Blockade: this may not have a meaningful immediate impact on oil due to the relatively small vol from Venezuela & record amount of oil already on water (floating storage), there is already ample oil supply, notably in the Q1, & a temporary loss of Venezuelan oil has largely been priced in
*Chaos & War Game: Oil output could fall further than expected & world enters into a major geopolitical risk

*Bearish to Stable outlook: short-term downside risk to Venezuela production (Blockade) but long-term upside risk from a potential return of Western oil investments (if Peaceful Transition): <infinity hedge>

> Timeline: The entire outcome depends on potential peaceful transition with little resistance. If successful, a significant oil-production ramp up could occur in 5-7 years as infra is repaired & investments get sorted out. However, this depends on everything going right, &  much could go wrong

> Political Complications:
*Trump dismissed the idea of working with Machado on a political transition, preferring Venezuela VP (now Interim President) Rodríguez However, she appeared to reject Trump's outreach, stating Maduro remains Venezuela's only president & vowing to defend the country's sovereignty & resources. Trump said "if she doesn’t do what’s right, she is going to pay a very big price, probably bigger than Maduro" while Rubio added "We'll assess based on their actions, US has levers to protect our interests, including the oil blockade", US won’t govern Venezuela but will press changes through oil blockade.

> China: called US to Release Maduro immediately & China Social Media Hails US Maduro Move as a Taiwan Template, "suggest using same method to reclaim Taiwan." China import about 4% of their oil from Venezuela so not a material impact (except the discount). China is also Venezuela’s biggest lender. Chinese firms are heavily invested in Venezuela’s infra (power, telecoms) so efforts to exclude Chinese investments & operators from the country could lead to unintended consequences

> Historical Context: Trump now joins the history of US presidents who have overthrown regimes of oil-rich countries, Bush with Iraq, Obama with Libya. In those cases, the US received zero benefit from the oil. History may repeat itself in Venezuela, an analyst told Reuters

> War Game: US officials ran a war game to assess what the Maduro fall might unleash: Results showed that chaos & violence were likely to erupt within as military units, rival political factions, & even jungle-based guerrilla groups jockeyed for control of the oil-rich country. Even if Maduro agreed to transfer power to a US-friendly successor (they assumed), some security forces could still rebel & even wage a guerrilla-type war, to exploit a power vaccum. The 1989 US invasion of Panama, a country less than 1/10 size of Venezuela, involved about 27k US Troops

$LIT - $LIT transactions have resumed on the Lighter contract and the team has just created the LIT/USDC market, signaling that trading may go live soon as Lighter prepares to activate the pair on its platform. The Lighter TGE is in a Schrödinger’s cat state.

$BREV - $BREV airdrop registration and eligibility portal is now live and open from December 29th to January 3rd at 6am UTC. Users should check their eligibility using wallet Discord or X account connections and complete any required claim address binding steps before the claiming phase begins later. Allocation amounts for eligible participants will be revealed only when claiming officially opens.

a16z sahred ideas for 2026. In the crypto sector, they expect four main areas to outperform: privacy, prediction markets, AI agents that require “Know Your Agent,” and staked media. The most interesting is staked media, a concept that aims to attach economic penalties to reduce AI-generated fake news and propaganda, creating a trust signal where people “put their money where their mouth is.” Under this model, creators or media outlets stake tokens like ETH or USDC in a smart contract when publishing an article, and if the content is proven false, their staked funds are slashed.

According to @Securitize  BlackRock’s BUIDL becomes the first tokenized Treasury to pay out $100M in lifetime dividends. The BUIDL Fund has a total supply of $1.746 billion and recently integrated with the BNB Chain, where it issued $500 million worth of tokens.

Strategy has acquired 1,229 BTC for ~$108.8M at ~$88,568 per $BTC and has achieved $BTC Yield of 23.2% YTD 2025. As of 12/28/2025, Strategy hodl 672,497 $BTC (x.com/search?q=%24BT…) acquired for ~$50.44B at ~$74,997 per bitcoin.

$BMNR - As of December 28th at 6:00pm ET, the Bitmine Immersion Technologies's crypto holdings are comprised of 4,110,525 $ETH at $2,948 per $ETH (Coinbase), 192 Bitcoin ($BTC), $23M stake in Eightco Holdings (NASDAQ: ORBS) ("moonshots") and total cash of $1.0B. Bitmine's ETH holdings are 3.41% of the $ETH supply (of 120.7M ETH).

President Donald Trump teased that he has a preferred candidate to be the next chair of the Federal Reserve, but is in no hurry to make an announcement — while also musing that he might fire the central bank’s current leader, Jerome Powell. Trump said that day he will announce the candidate for the next Fed chair next month. Those being mentioned as candidates include Kevin Hassett, Trump's close economic adviser and Chairperson of the White House National Economic Council (NEC); former Fed Governor Kevin Warsh; and Fed Governor Christopher Waller.

China’s central bank will allow commercial banks to pay interests on clients’ digital yuan holdings in a new framework set to take effect on Jan. 1, 2026. With the new policy in place, the e-CNY will transition from functioning as digital cash to operating as “digital deposit currency,” said a central bank official.

Gold and silver have seen a sharp pullback, with gold down around 4–5% from recent record levels and silver dropping roughly 7–8% in the latest session as the overheated year-end rally unwinds. This decline is largely driven by profit-taking after a parabolic move up, thinner year-end liquidity, and easing geopolitical risk that has reduced safe-haven demand for precious metals.

@elizaOS  and the X account of its founder, @shawmakesmagic , have come back to life after being suspended for unknown reasons for six months. As a result, CTs bought the $ELIZAOS token, which ran up 80% before a mild pullback, and it is now trading around a 36m FDV.
