🗽 The US government has started working again — Donald Trump signed the H.R. 5371 law and officially ended the record shutdown.

Funding for government agencies has been extended until January 30, 2026.

The shutdown lasted 43 days — the longest shutdown in the country's history.

⌨️ For the third time, Hyperliquid finds itself at the center of a loud incident — the exchange suspended deposits and withdrawals after a large-scale manipulation of the POPCAT token.

An unknown trader withdrew $3 million from OKX, transferred it to Hyperliquid, and began actively opening long positions on POPCAT, driving up the price. To create the illusion of high demand, he placed a huge "wall" of buy orders at $0.21 totaling about $30 million — but later suddenly removed it.

The price crashed, positions were liquidated, the trader lost his collateral, and the HLP liquidity system lost nearly $5 million.

😂 Mega-investor Robert Kiyosaki stated that he owes the bank $1.2 billion, but it doesn't bother him.

“If I go bankrupt, that's not my problem — it's the bank's problem”.

💰 Activity on the Solana network has dropped to a yearly low — the number of active wallets has decreased to 3.3 million, nearly three times less than the January peak.

The decline in interest in shitcoins has led to reduced user activity, although Solana still maintains strong positions in DeFi with a total liquidity of about $10 billion.

Experts note that dependence on a single trend makes the ecosystem vulnerable to changes in market sentiment.

💰 The OKX exchange announced the launch of an updated mobile app, in which centralized (CEX) and decentralized (DEX) trading are combined in one interface.

Users get access to millions of tokens on Solana, Base, and X Layer, including projects that have not yet appeared on major exchanges.

The app supports automatic selection of the best prices among more than 100 liquidity pools, provides asset management through passkey and onchain recovery, and uses a fixed 0.85% fee with no additional gas costs.

The new functionality is already available to OKX users worldwide.

🔮 The financial giant JPMorgan called the $94,000 level a key support for BTC — meanwhile, analysts maintain the forecast that in the next 6–12 months the leading cryptocurrency could grow to about $170,000.

Essentially, JPMorgan sees room for continued growth and considers the current fluctuations part of normal market movement.

💰 Bitcoin is again below $100,000.

🪒 In the last hour, the volume of long liquidations in the crypto market exceeded $300,000,000.

Bitcoin dropped below $97,000.

😭 A user on the HTX exchange had a long position liquidated for $44,300,000 with a single order in the BTC/USDT pair.

📈 Wintermute released a report noting: the correlation between BTC and the Nasdaq-100 index remains very strong — about 0.8. But despite this "friendship" Bitcoin does not take advantage of the stock market, it moves in sync with it mainly when things are going badly.

Analysts also emphasized that such negative asymmetry — when the asset reacts negatively but is slow to rejoice with the market — historically appears more often not at the peaks, but closer to the bottom.

And a second bottom as a gift?
