Bitcoin price plummets to zero on the Paradex exchange

Data from DeFiLlama indicates that the perpetual protocol has about $641 million in open interest.

The price of Bitcoin dropped to $0 on the decentralized perpetual exchange Paradex during the early morning, according to several users, after a problem in a database migration affected Paradex's blockchain, its block explorer, the bridge, and the API.

The issue was first flagged on Paradex's status page at 2:36 PM (Brasilia time) on Monday, shortly after posts on social media pointed out a cascade of liquidations as the price of Bitcoin plummeted to $0 on the exchange.

Around 4:00 AM (Brasilia time), the exchange identified the problem and began implementing a fix that resulted in the rollback of the state of the Paradex Chain, a blockchain built using the Starknet stack. Starknet is a second-layer scalability network of Ethereum.

“We identified the issue and will roll back the state of the chain to block 1604710,” says the status update. “This is the moment prior to the database maintenance and is the last known correct state.

Brazil's Federal Revenue Agency resumes publishing data on cryptocurrencies traded in the country

Federal Revenue cryptocurrencies open data
The return of data shows what happened in September 2025.

Brazil's Federal Revenue Agency (RFB) has resumed publishing data declared by Brazilian cryptocurrency investors, after a three-month hiatus without public information.

However, the data that stopped being published in September 2025 are now reappearing in January 2026, based on the information from the month it stopped. That is, the data declared up to the ninth month of the last year that RFB published.

The numbers, for example, confirm the dominance of stablecoins in the domestic market, which surpass Bitcoin in total transaction volume.

Brazil's Federal Revenue Agency (RFB) has resumed publishing data declared by Brazilian cryptocurrency investors, after a three-month hiatus without public information.

However, the data that stopped being published in September 2025 are now reappearing in January 2026, based on the information from the month it stopped. That is, the data declared up to the ninth month of the last year that RFB published.

In any case, for those following the crypto market, the information provided by industry companies and investors themselves often impacts the national scenario.

The numbers, for example, confirm the dominance of stablecoins in the domestic market, which surpass Bitcoin in total transaction volume.

The survey indicates that the number of unique declarants in September reached 4,584,071 individuals (CPFs) and 92,132 legal entities (CNPJs). The figures indicate a slowdown in activity compared to August 2025, which recorded 5,164,408 (CPFs) and 116,108 (CNPJs).

Diego Tavares says Brazil is heading toward economic collapse

The commentator Diego Tavares analyzed the statement made by Argentine president Javier Milei and stated that Brazil has become the opposite of the model adopted by Argentina. According to him, while Milei promotes a lean state and liberal reforms, the government of President Lula (PT) is betting on increased public spending and the growing weight of the state apparatus.

The Arithmetic of Chaos

The data don't lie, even though the government tries to mask them. Brazil is witnessing a rapid deterioration of public accounts. The insistence on a permissive fiscal framework is pushing public debt to alarming levels, approaching 80% of GDP. For investors and conservative citizens, this means one thing: future insolvency. While Milei cuts ministries and privileges, Brasília creates departments and positions to accommodate allies, inflating a state that produces nothing.

Punitive Revenue Collection and Inflation

The current model is based on strangling the private sector. The government relies on punitive revenue collection—a true "witch hunt" in fiscal terms—to sustain ideological and inefficient spending. When the state spends what it doesn't have, the result is inflation, the harshest tax on the poor, and the maintenance of high interest rates to contain the damage caused by the government itself.

The Collapse of Trust

Tavares's speculation about economic collapse is based on capital flight. Capital is cowardly and seeks legal security. By attacking the independence of the Central Bank and flirting with interventionism, Brazil signals to the world that it prefers the path of state servitude over market freedom. If Milei's Argentina represents the liberal rebirth in Latin America, Brazil risks becoming the last bastion of a model that has only produced misery and stagnation.

"Brazil doesn't need more government, it needs more freedom. Without a shock of austerity, the abyss won't just be a possibility, but the final destiny".

We'll be in trouble if the Supreme Court rules against U.S. tariffs, says Trump

The American president, Donald Trump, stated on Monday (12) that the United States would be in a critical situation if the Supreme Court decides that some tariffs imposed by the head of the executive branch are illegal.

In a post on his platform, Truth Social, Trump said the United States would need to refund hundreds of billions of dollars if the country's high court rules against the main economic policy of his administration.

"And that doesn't even include the number of countries and companies that would demand 'compensation' for investments they are making in building factories and equipment to avoid paying tariffs," he emphasized.

"If we add up these investments, we're talking about trillions of dollars! It would be total chaos, and nearly impossible for our country to pay," he stated. "In other words, if the Supreme Court rules against the United States on this national security issue, WE'LL BE FED UP!" Trump concluded.

The Supreme Court is expected to issue its ruling on Wednesday, and the tariff case, discussed in November, may be among the decisions announced.

During the oral arguments on the case, the justices expressed skepticism about Trump's use of emergency powers to impose tariffs on nearly all of the United States' trading partners, as well as levies on Mexico, Canada, and China due to their alleged involvement in drug trafficking.

Several of the six conservative justices, along with the three progressive ones, questioned whether the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), invoked by Trump, grants him authority to impose tariffs.

Bitcoin rises, driven by concerns over Fed independence

Bitcoin rose on Monday (12) amid concerns about the independence of the Federal Reserve (Fed, the U.S. central bank), following the Department of Justice (DoJ, in English) opening an investigation into the president of the U.S. central bank, Jerome Powell. The situation weighed on the U.S. dollar and reinforced the search for alternative assets.

Around 5 p.m. (in Brasília time), bitcoin was up 1.22%, at $91,833.73, while ethereum declined 0.12%, at $3,121.38, according to the Binance platform.

The growing importance of cryptocurrencies as a complement to traditional financial systems is underscored by increasing concerns about central bank independence, writes Eliezer Ndinga of 21shares. "Unlike conventional currencies, which function as liabilities of a central bank, bitcoin is a non-sovereign asset, independent of centralized oversight and intermediaries," he states.

Ndinga adds that the digital currency is "free from political interference." The policy of the leading cryptocurrency, he says, "remains predictable, transparent, and resistant to arbitrary changes."

On the other hand, Fitch warns that bitcoin-backed securities carry high risks and fall into speculative credit categories. According to the agency, the cryptocurrency's high volatility, combined with the structure of these transactions and counterparty risks, demands conservative collateral levels and rapid deleveraging mechanisms.

Meanwhile, BitGo announced on Monday the launch of its initial public offering (IPO, in English), with over 11 million ordinary Class A shares. Meanwhile, Strategy purchased approximately $1.25 billion in bitcoins, acquiring a total of 13,627 bitcoins between January 5 and 11, in a transaction financed by the sale of shares.

Haddad's Secretary Confirms Plan to Tax Cryptocurrencies

The government has been studying the taxation of crypto assets after the Central Bank defined transactions of virtual assets as foreign exchange operations, said the executive secretary of the Ministry of Finance, Dario Durigan, on Wednesday (26), confirming a plan revealed by Reuters last week.

In an interview with the press after the sanction of the bill that exempts people earning up to R$ 5,000 monthly from Income Tax, Durigan stated that the taxation of crypto assets is a topic that the government should focus on.

"The Central Bank recently updated the regulatory framework. Without a doubt, from a merit standpoint, it is a topic worth focusing on. We will also deliver the regulatory and taxation part of crypto assets," he said.

Reuters showed that the government is studying the taxation of crypto assets to close a loophole that allows the use of these assets to circumvent traditional transactions that are subject to the Tax on Financial Operations (IOF).

Under the current rule, taxpayers and brokers are required to declare to the Revenue Service operations with crypto assets, with Income Tax incidence on capital gains for incomes exceeding R$ 35,000 monthly. However, there is no IOF charge.

The measure under study has the potential to boost public revenues given the size of the crypto asset market in Brazil, which has been growing rapidly, especially due to the use of stablecoins, which are usually backed by safe assets, such as the dollar.

Entrepreneur Do Kwon is sentenced to 15 years in prison for the Terra-Luna crypto scandal

The cryptocurrency entrepreneur Do Kwon was sentenced to 15 years in prison in the United States for two counts of fraud related to the collapse of TerraUSD and luna tokens, which resulted in losses exceeding $40 billion for investors. The sentence was handed down by a federal judge in New York and surpassed the 12 years requested by prosecutors.

Upon announcing the decision, Judge Paul Engelmayer stated that Kwon committed an "epic and generational fraud," according to the Financial Times. The magistrate also said that the co-founder of Terraform Labs exerted an almost "mystical" influence over thousands of investors, likened to followers of a cult.

Kwon, 34, had pleaded guilty in August of this year, admitting that he knowingly deceived buyers of crypto assets issued by the Terraform Labs group. Before the reading of the sentence, he apologized to the victims and expressed hope that his mistakes would "prevent other crypto founders from being where I am today," as reported by the Financial Times.

According to the indictment presented in January, Kwon "orchestrated schemes to defraud cryptocurrency buyers" and built a financial system "based on lies and manipulative and deceptive techniques." Prosecutors stated that the impact of the losses was devastating, with reports of broken families and even suicides among victims.

During the hearing, the court heard testimonies from affected investors. One victim reported having invested $81,000 in the luna token and only recovered $13, becoming homeless in Tbilisi, Georgia.

The collapse of the Terra ecosystem occurred in May 2022 and involved the so-called algorithmic stablecoin TerraUSD, designed to maintain parity with the dollar. Kwon had publicly ridiculed critics of the model and even claimed that Terra "would remain stable until the end of humanity," according to the Financial Times.

The Revenue Agency denies false news disseminated about financial transactions

The Ministry of Finance, in a statement released by the Federal Revenue (RF), denied on Monday false information circulating on social media claiming that financial transactions starting from R$ 5,000 would be taxed.

"The fake news circulating invented, this time, a fine of 150% for those who do not pay the false tax," highlighted the RF in the statement.

The note recalls that the Federal Constitution prohibits the taxation of financial movements. "This does not exist and will never exist under the current Constitution," reinforced the Revenue.

False

It also highlighted that there is no taxation of 27.5% on transactions. "It is completely false," emphasized.
"It is also a lie that there is any fine of 150% for lack of declaration," completed the Revenue.

Finally, the statement highlights that there is no taxation on financial movement. "The Federal Revenue clarifies that spreading lies, fake news, and financial panic only serves criminals," concludes the note.

Source: Correio do Brasil

I want to highlight that...

"In Brazilian soil, where the tax burden is treated as a national sport, the news of a new 27.5% tax was so plausible that the denial sounds like fiction. It is a relief to know that, for now, the government still respects the Constitution; after all, if the trend of inventing taxes via WhatsApp catches on, there will be no money left even to pay for the data plan used to read the next fake news".

Maduro's arrest could boost markets, says analyst

According to an analyst from Frankfurt, stock markets are likely to react positively after the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro by the U.S., due to expectations of increased oil production in the country.

"It is true that it will take some time for actual oil production in Venezuela to start increasing again. We know that markets often trade on expectations and forecasts. In this scenario, the expectation is that Venezuela's oil production will increase in the coming months and years," said Carsten Brzeski, chief economist at ING, to Reuters.

Global investors will also face a new increase in geopolitical risk following the U.S. measure, which could unleash the country's vast oil reserves and boost risk assets in the long term, but trigger a flight to safety when negotiations resume.

President Donald Trump stated that the U.S. would take control of the oil-producing country, while Maduro, whom the U.S. has repeatedly accused of running a "narco-state" and of election fraud, was in a detention center in New York on Sunday (4), awaiting the formalization of charges.

Washington had not conducted such a direct intervention in Latin America since the invasion of Panama in 1989.
"What the U.S. attack on Venezuela means, in my opinion, is clearly that the U.S. has demonstrated its military power, or, as they themselves said, their military strength.

It is a clear sign that the U.S. wants to have more influence in the Western Hemisphere and, for Europe, this should be yet another warning for it to finally get organized," Brzeski said.

Markets were closed when the attacks occurred, but had started the first trading day of the year on the right foot, with Wall Street indexes closing higher and the dollar appreciating against a basket of major currencies on Friday (2).

My Radar for January 2026: 3 Sectors to Keep an Eye On

If December was the month to plan, January is the month to act. In 2026, the market will not reward those who shoot in all directions, but those who position themselves in narratives of real utility.
Here are the three sectors that are at the top of my radar for this beginning of the year:

1. RWA (Real World Assets) - The "Faria Lima" On-chain

In 2026, the tokenization of treasury bonds and real estate is no longer a test. Major institutions are using blockchain for instant settlement. What to watch: Projects that connect private credit to DeFi.

Tokens on the Radar: Ondo (ONDO) and Chainlink (LINK) (for cross-chain oracle infrastructure).

Why now? January is the month when institutional funds reopen their annual allocations.

2. DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure)

The idea of using crypto to build internet networks, maps, and energy has finally scaled. The "burn-and-mint" model is proving to be sustainable.

What to watch: Cloud computing networks for AI and connectivity networks. Tokens on the Radar: Render (RNDR) for graphics processing and Helium (HNT) or Akash (AKT) for infrastructure.

The thesis: The world needs hardware, and decentralization is the cheapest way to scale.

3. AI Agents and Cognitive Economy

Forget AI coins that are just marketing. In 2026, the focus is on autonomous AI Agents that have their own wallets and transact with each other. What to watch: Protocols that allow AIs to purchase data and processing without human intervention.

Tokens on the Radar: Bittensor (TAO) and Fetch.ai (FET) (integrated into ASI).

The Differentiator: These projects are creating a layer of intelligence that runs 24/7, independent of market mood.

Crypto Survival Guide: What to Expect in 2026?

There are only a few days left until 2026. While many are still stuck on the profits (or losses) of 2025, the professional investor already has their eyes on the horizon. If 2024 was the year of the Halving and 2025 was the year of institutional euphoria, 2026 will be the year of separation between noise and real value.

Here is my vision of what awaits us in the next 12 months:

1. The "Super Cycle" Meets Macroeconomics

In 2026, Bitcoin's correlation with the traditional financial market will be at its highest level. We will no longer look only at the BTC chart, but at the global liquidity chart.

The Vision: Bitcoin will consolidate as the ultimate "digital gold", but the extreme volatility of the past will give way to more institutional movements. Those who can read the FED's movements along with On-chain data will dominate the game.

2. The Era of Useful Applications (Utility-First)

The party of promises is over. In 2026, the market will no longer accept empty whitepapers. We will see the definitive explosion of RWA (Real World Assets). Central banks and large funds will be liquidating assets directly on the blockchain.

The infrastructure of DePIN (decentralized physical networks) will start to replace traditional cloud and telecommunications services.

My bet: Capital will migrate from "governance tokens" to "utility and revenue tokens".

The Great Rebalancing: Survival of the Fittest

Historically, the second year after the Halving (as 2026 will be) requires caution. The Strategy: It will not be about "buying anything and going up 10x". It will be about portfolio management.

We will have an abundance of L2s (Layer 2) and scalability solutions. The question for 2026 is not "which blockchain is faster?", but "which blockchain has more liquidity and users?".

Regulatory and Structural Analysis of Ripple and XRP: Implications of a Potential Banking License

The discussion about the classification of XRP requires regulatory analysis, focused on the proposal of the Clarity Act in the USA. This law may stipulate that, for an asset to be classified as a commodity, no associated entity can hold more than 20% of its total supply.

The Distribution Challenge

Currently, Ripple Labs Inc. controls more than 30% of the XRP supply, representing a direct obstacle to obtaining commodity status under this rule. To resolve this, Ripple would have to reduce its holdings or seek an alternative regulatory framework.

The Banking License Strategy

Analysts' thesis is that Ripple may seek a national bank charter. A banking license would place the company under a different regulatory regime, potentially under the OCC, which would nullify the 20% limit on the distribution of XRP.

Strategic Moves by Ripple:

Ripple has already shown institutional ambition by:
Requesting the creation of a Trust Bank.

Seeking a Master Account at the Federal Reserve (Fed).
Aiming for direct access to the Fedwire and FedNow systems.
Preparing the infrastructure for the issuance of RLUSD.

These actions signal an institutional-level positioning and integration with traditional financial infrastructure.

Potential Impact on Price

Analytical models predict that the successful acquisition of a banking charter and access to the Fed would represent a historically significant institutional validation event for XRP. Regulatory clarity and subsequent institutional adoption would remove long-standing uncertainties, being considered significant catalysts for the asset's value.

Conclusion: The strategy of focusing on regulatory structure and the banking license is seen as the most critical factor that will define the future of XRP in the market, surpassing short-term trading noise.

Nobel Prize-winning economist predicts collapse of bitcoins

Predictions about the future of cryptocurrencies are divided between enthusiasts of technological innovations and their application in the capital environment and those who see risks to economic stability.

Winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics in 2013, Eugene Fama is on the list of experts who demonstrate a skeptical view of the future of this asset.

Fama expressed his opinion while participating in a podcast on 30/1/2025. For the economist, cryptocurrencies have a "predictable end."

Cryptocurrencies are a mystery because they violate all the rules of a medium of exchange. They do not have a real stable value. They have a truly variable value,” noted the American economist, who won the Nobel alongside Peter Hansen and Robert Schiller for pioneering work in identifying trends in financial markets.

"It’s the kind of medium of exchange that shouldn’t be able to survive. I hope it bursts, but I cannot predict that. I hope it does, because if it doesn’t burst we will need to restart all monetary theory," he added.

In other words, for Fama, the market for bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies is a bubble that will burst at some point. The prediction is based on traditional monetary theories.

The economist believes that this collapse of the cryptocurrency market could happen in up to a decade. Eugene Fama considers it "unsustainable" for the global financial system to migrate entirely to so-called blockchain networks. This is because it would require enormous computational capacity.

The Central Bank will exclude 31 companies from Pix after reinforcing security

Among the financial institutions that operate without requiring authorization from the Central Bank, 31 will have to comply with the new rules imposed by the monetary authority, after a series of cyberattacks on the Pix system left a hole of about R$ 1.5 billion.

This information is included in the minutes of the last Pix Forum, held on the 4th. Another 39 are already in the new standard. These companies need a contract with a financial institution that participates directly in Pix. Therefore, they are called indirect participants of Pix.

According to a resolution published by the BC on September 5, only institutions that submit a complete risk assessment form can be responsible for third parties. This document contains data on transactions, values under custody, among other financial information used by the monetary authority to assess the likelihood of default or insolvency.

Credit cooperatives also lost the right to oversee the participation of other companies in the Pix System.
Indirect participants who are in violation of the new rule and do not find a new partner by March 4 will be excluded from the system.

The BC is also expected to present, next year, a risk matrix to identify participants with systemic security failures.

In the hacker attacks recorded between June and September, shell accounts maintained in indirect Pix participants were used to disperse money obtained from the frauds. Companies like Soffy, which received about R$ 270 million of the R$ 541 million diverted from BMP Moneyplus on June 30, had their participation in Pix suspended.

At the Pix Forum, the monetary authority also disclosed the agenda for 2026. There are plans to make it more difficult for people with a history of fraud to access Pix to curb the activities of frontmen.

South Korean cryptocurrency magnate sentenced to 15 years in prison for fraud

The South Korean cryptocurrency magnate Do Kwon, accused of causing a fraudulent collapse of more than US$ 40 billion (217 billion reais) in 2022, was sentenced on Thursday (11) to 15 years in prison in New York, according to France Presse.
Kwon, who promoted two digital currencies that ended up crashing, pleaded guilty in August to conspiracy to commit fraud and wire fraud, in a case that shook the global cryptocurrency market.

Through his company, Terraform Labs, Kwon, 34, created the cryptocurrency TerraUSD, presented as a stablecoin, a type of digital currency whose price would be linked to a traditional currency — in this case, the dollar.

Kwon presented the assets as the great innovation of this digital market and attracted billions in investments. He received praise from South Korean outlets, portraying him as a genius, while thousands rushed to invest in his company.

In 2019, Kwon made it to Forbes magazine's “30 Under 30 Asia” list. But, despite the high investments, TerraUSD and its sister coin, Luna, entered a spiral of collapse in May 2022.

According to experts, Kwon structured a disguised pyramid scheme, where many investors lost life savings accumulated over a lifetime.

Unlike other currencies of this kind, such as Tether and USDC, Terra was not linked to safe assets, such as cash or government bonds, which could be redeemed in case of instability.

Kwon left South Korea before the collapse and spent months on the run. In March 2023, he was arrested at the airport in Podgorica, the capital of Montenegro, while preparing to board a flight to Dubai using a fake Costa Rican passport.

Cryptocurrency company wants to buy Juventus, but "is not for sale"

Tether, one of the largest cryptocurrency companies in the world and minority shareholder of Juventus, revealed on Friday that it intends to acquire a majority stake from Exor, the Agnelli family's holding company, which responded on Saturday through a definitive video.

After Tether, which currently holds 11.5% of Juventus' shares, stated that it intends to invest one billion euros in the club as the main shareholder, John Elkann, chairman of Exor, appeared in a video addressing the "bianconeri" fans, emphasizing that the club and "its values are not for sale".

"Juve has been part of my family for 102 years, in the literal sense of the word, because over a century, we have seen four generations make it bigger and stronger. It has been protected during difficult times and celebrated in many happy moments. That’s not all. Juve is part of a much, much larger family.

The 'bianconeri' family is made up of millions of fans in Italy and around the world, who love Juve as much as those close to them. It is precisely in that passion and this love story that has united us for more than a decade that, as a family, we continue to support our team and look to the future to build a winning Juve. Our Juventus, our story, is not for sale," he emphasized.

Cryptocurrencies gain strength amid global instability and technological advances (AI)

The global economic scenario in 2025 continues to be marked by challenges and profound transformations. The slowdown in growth in some developed economies, combined with volatility in emerging markets, has led investors to seek alternatives outside the traditional financial system. In this context, cryptocurrencies are once again playing a central role in discussions about the future of finance.

After a period of regulatory adjustments and increased oversight by governments, the crypto market shows signs of maturity. Bitcoin and Ethereum remain as leaders, but the recent highlight is on stablecoins and tokens linked to artificial intelligence, which have been attracting large volumes of capital. The integration of cryptocurrencies with global payment systems and the expansion of DeFi (decentralized finance) solutions reinforce the trend of economic digitalization.

On the other hand, geopolitical instability — marked by trade tensions and regional conflicts — has driven the search for decentralized assets as a way to protect against currency risks and inflation. Countries with weak currencies have recorded a significant increase in the adoption of crypto assets, while large corporations intensify investments in blockchain to ensure transparency and efficiency.

Experts point out that, although the market remains subject to fluctuations, the consolidation of cryptocurrencies as part of the global financial ecosystem is irreversible. The challenge now is to balance innovation and regulation, ensuring security without stifling the transformative potential of technology.

The Federal Revenue Service estimates to collect R$ 50 billion with taxpayer self-regulation

The Federal Revenue Service estimates to collect R$ 50 billion in 2025 with compliance actions, self-regulation, and guidance to taxpayers. This information comes from the secretary of the department, Robinson Barreirinhas, who participated in the seminar "Two Years of the Fiscal Framework" this Thursday (11).

"In 2024, we had a collection of R$ 18 billion from compliance actions, taxpayer guidance, self-regulation, and transactions. We expect to reach R$ 50 billion this year," said the secretary.

During the event, Barreirinhas emphasized that the Federal Revenue Service has started to invest in guidance initiatives instead of large-scale auditing operations. In his assessment, this approach is more efficient since the administrative and judicial disputes resulting from audits are a lengthy process.

"We need to be partners with taxpayers not only because it's the right and fair thing to do, but because it's the most efficient from a revenue perspective," he stated.

Source: CNN Brasil

My personal observation:

"It is truly inspiring to see the current administration transform revenue collection into an act of 'partnership.' After all, nothing says efficiency like relying on the goodwill of taxpayers to fill the holes that the administration itself helped dig. If this continues, they will soon launch a program called 'Donate to the Government: it's for the good of the country.'"
