Vitalik: The uniqueness of Polymarket lies in its alignment with "growing and actual social issues"
According to a tweet from Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, "Polymarket is unique because its growth phase aligns with actual social issues, suitable for helping to address that problem (in 2024, there is significant distrust in partisan media in the U.S. and elsewhere). What specific large-scale social issues is crypto technology suitable for helping to solve now or in the near future? (In fact, we hope to find situations involving the collapse of centralized institutions, which are untrusted or widely regarded as harmful, and where there is significant demand to bypass them)."

**QCP Capital: Market expects Trump's inauguration to boost optimism, current *pullback* may be a buildup for a bullish rebound**
QCP Capital's latest analysis indicates that Bitcoin has pulled back to the $95,000 support level due to better-than-expected U.S. employment data. JOLTS job openings surged to 8.1 million, exceeding the expected 7.74 million. The unexpectedly strong job market has triggered risk-averse sentiment, with long-term bond yields rising leading to a sell-off in risk assets.
Bitcoin ETF inflows plummeted from $987 million to $52.9 million, a decrease of 94%. Among them, BlackRock's IBIT recorded a significant inflow of $596 million, while ARK and 21Shares' ARKB saw an outflow of $213 million.
QCP Capital believes that this week's FOMC meeting and non-farm payroll data will further impact Bitcoin's trend. The market expects Trump's inauguration to boost optimism, and the current pullback may be a buildup for a bullish rebound.

Matrixport: Global liquidity begins to tighten, Bitcoin may enter a consolidation phase
According to charts released by Matrixport, fluctuations in global liquidity may put some pressure on Bitcoin. Historical data shows that changes in liquidity typically lead Bitcoin price movements by about 13 weeks. With the dollar strengthening after Trump's re-election, global liquidity measured in dollars is beginning to tighten, suggesting that Bitcoin may enter a consolidation phase in the near term.
However, this consolidation is expected to be a temporary phenomenon. Overall, risk assets (especially Bitcoin) still show positive long-term potential. Nevertheless, in a weaker liquidity environment, traders should exercise greater caution, as these indicators have historically proven to be reliable market barometers.

**Greeks.live: This *pullback* is mainly influenced by the U.S. stock market crash, Bitcoin's bull market is still ongoing**
According to macro researcher Adam from Greeks.live, "Due to the crash of U.S. stocks like Nvidia and Tesla, cryptocurrencies have also experienced a significant adjustment, with Bitcoin falling below $100,000 again, and altcoins suffering even greater declines, leading to a pessimistic market sentiment.
In terms of options data, short-term implied volatility has slightly rebounded but remains at a low level, with the market's pricing of future volatility unchanged. The options skew and futures premium have also not shown significant changes. The mainstream view is that this pullback is influenced by the strong dollar and the decline in U.S. stocks, and the trend of Bitcoin has not changed; the bull market is still ongoing. If one chooses to buy the dip now, the short-term bullish outlook for $100,000 is very cost-effective, especially for Bitcoin's weekly bullish outlook."
