The crypto market welcomed a rebound at the beginning of the year, and Trump concept coins had a big pump.

At the beginning of the new year, the crypto market has shown a significant Rebound. Bitcoin, after experiencing a nearly 15% drop, has bottomed out and is currently fluctuating around $99,000, with the market generally optimistic and expected to challenge the $100,000 mark again. Ethereum has also performed strongly, rising over 18% in the past two weeks. Other small coins have also followed suit with increases.

It is worth noting that the rise in cryptocurrencies related to Trump is particularly significant. As expectations grow for Trump to possibly return to the White House in 2025, the prices of several related tokens have soared. One token rose by as much as 469.3% within 24 hours, another increased by 59.6%, and two others rose by 48.2% and 41% respectively.

Investors are filled with anticipation regarding Trump's commitment to the encryption industry. Trump has repeatedly expressed support for the encryption industry during his campaign and has garnered support from key figures within the sector. Analysts point out that the first 100 days of Trump's presidency will be a critical period, as this time is often seen as an important indicator of a new president's governance efficiency. Although specific policies have yet to be announced, investors are particularly concerned about whether Trump will fulfill his promise to establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve and whether the regulatory policies for cryptocurrencies will be relaxed.

A senior executive at an asset management company stated that the Trump administration may relax merger and acquisition regulations, which could stimulate large tech companies to accelerate integration, thereby promoting the development of the crypto market. He emphasized that the core idea of encryption is distrust of large institutions, and the merger and acquisition activities of large enterprises may further highlight the importance of decentralization.

At the same time, AI-related cryptocurrencies have experienced a significant adjustment after several consecutive days of rise. Multiple AI concept coins fell by 10.7%, 34.2%, 24.7%, and 15.1% within 24 hours.

This week, the market will closely monitor the minutes of the Federal Reserve meeting in December and the non-farm payroll report for December to be released on Friday. The meeting minutes will provide insights into the views of Federal Reserve officials on the outlook for the U.S. economy and whether they believe the risks of an economic slowdown are increasing. These factors will have a significant impact on future market trends.

Companies Increase Bitcoin Holdings, Ethereum Founder Discusses Decentralized Development

A certain company plans to increase its Bitcoin holdings to 10,000 coins by 2025 to enhance its influence in the Bitcoin ecosystem in Japan and globally. The company currently holds 1,762 coins, making it the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin in Asia and ranking 15th among publicly traded companies. The company's CEO stated that if the United States adopts Bitcoin as a strategic reserve, many countries may follow suit. He emphasized that the company is not just creating a business, but is driving a movement around Bitcoin.

Vitalik Buterin, the founder of Ethereum, reviewed the development of the decentralized acceleration (d/acc) concept in his latest article, focusing on three key issues: AI security regulation, the role of cryptocurrency in d/acc, and public goods financing. Regarding AI safety, Buterin proposed two main strategies: establishing accountability and a global "soft pause" mechanism. On cryptocurrency, he pointed out its three major connections to d/acc: the extension of values, the formation of early adopter communities, and the complementarity of technology. Buterin also discussed innovative public goods financing mechanisms, emphasizing the importance of decentralized financing for the development of open-source projects. Despite facing challenges from rapid technological development and diminished global cooperation, Buterin remains confident about the future, looking forward to achieving a safer and freer world through decentralized technology.

AI Agent Platform Upgrade, New Projects Focus on Viral Trends

An AI agency platform announced a major upgrade plan for the market segment, launching seven core features, including automated agency deployment, paywall integration, and token payment. Developers can use the platform token for agency transactions and receive rewards based on quality assessment. The new version will also introduce one-click cloud deployment API, real-time chat, and data tracking functions, aiming to enhance the automation of the ecosystem and the earnings of creators.

The core concept of the platform is to solve complex problems through the collaboration of multiple AI agents, leveraging collective intelligence. The system supports seamless integration with external AI services and APIs, providing agents with almost unlimited long-term memory to enhance contextual understanding and allow for customized workflows. Its high reliability and scalability, combined with the ability to automatically optimize language model parameters, enable the platform to tackle complex challenges more effectively.

Another emerging project HIVE has built an infrastructure that allows AI agents to deploy tokens based on viral trends. The system monitors through social media APIs and search trends, analyzes popular content, and utilizes a verification framework to deploy tokens, automatically distributing revenue to token holders. HIVE will randomly acquire 1%-3% of the total token supply, with half allocated for liquidity provision and the other half for gradual sell-off within 24 hours. The revenue distribution plan includes buyback and burn, distribution to holders, support for ecosystem projects, and reserve funds. Currently, HIVE has successfully deployed its first token, but initial failures due to technical limitations have been addressed by the development team.
