Today's Outlook
1. Metaplanet plans to increase its Bitcoin holdings to 210,000 BTC by the end of 2027.
2. Lookonchain monitoring yesterday showed that BlackRock deposited 2,292 BTC (worth $199.8 million) and 9,976 ETH (worth $29.23 million) into Coinbase Prime.
3. Arkham analyst Emmett Gallic: Entities linked to the Mt. Gox hacker Aleksey Bilyuchenko have deposited 1,300 BTC (worth approximately $114 million) into unknown exchanges over the past seven days. These addresses still hold 4,100 BTC (worth $360 million). They have sold a total of 2,300 BTC so far.
Macro & Highlights
1. U.S. initial jobless claims last week were 214,000, below the estimated 223,500 and lower than expected. Continuing claims for the week ended December 13 reached 1.923 million, compared to an estimate of 1.9 million.
2. BlackRock strategists Amanda Lynam and Dominique Bly noted in a report that the Federal Reserve is expected to implement only limited rate cuts in 2026. With 175 basis points of cumulative rate cuts already in this cycle, the Fed is approaching neutral interest rate levels. Unless there is a sharp deterioration in the labor market, room for further easing in 2026 will be quite limited. According to LSEG data, markets currently expect two rate cuts from the Fed in 2026.
3. Senior analyst Ipek Ozkardeskaya at Swissquote Bank pointed out that gold prices have set new record highs over 50 times this year, and the core drivers behind this rally remain intact. She said: “Theoretically speaking, the medium- to long-term outlook for gold remains optimistic.”
Market Trends
1. Over the past 24 hours, the crypto market saw $167 million in total liquidations across all positions, with longs accounting for $102 million. BTC liquidations amounted to about $53 million, while ETH liquidations reached approximately $38 million.
2. Affected by the Christmas holiday, U.S. stock markets closed early on Wednesday. The Dow Jones rose 0.6%, the S&P 500 gained 0.32%, and the Nasdaq increased by 0.22%. Additionally, spot gold dropped below $4,450, falling 0.78% during the day.
3. Bitget’s BTC/USDT liquidation map shows high concentration of leveraged long and short positions near the current price level (~$87,700), making short-term volatility highly likely to trigger cascading liquidations. Short liquidation clusters are dense above ~$88,500–90,000, while long exposure risks are higher around $86,000. Price action may be “pushed” toward the side with greater liquidity concentration.
4. In the past 24 hours, BTC spot inflows were approximately $45 million, outflows around $52 million, resulting in a net outflow of $7 million.
