Bitcoin's price fluctuations could lead to substantial liquidation events on major cryptocurrency exchanges. According to BlockBeats, data from Coinglass indicates that if Bitcoin's value rises above $90,000, the cumulative liquidation intensity of short positions on mainstream exchanges will reach $435 million. Conversely, if Bitcoin falls below $88,000, the cumulative liquidation intensity of long positions will amount to $497 million. BlockBeats notes that the liquidation chart does not precisely display the number of contracts pending liquidation or the exact value of liquidated contracts. Instead, the chart's bars represent the relative importance of each liquidation cluster compared to nearby clusters, indicating intensity. Thus, the chart illustrates the extent to which the target price reaching a certain level will be affected. A higher "liquidation bar" suggests that once the price reaches that point, there will be a stronger reaction due to liquidity waves.

Bitcoin's price is expected to reach $1.5 million, according to former PayPal President David Marcus. According to PANews, Marcus expressed confidence in this prediction, stating, "This is bound to happen."

Ripple has obtained conditional approval from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) for a national trust bank charter, representing a significant milestone for blockchain companies entering the banking industry. According to NS3.AI, this preliminary approval could elevate Ripple's status as a mainstream financial institution and potentially enhance the market value of XRP. However, Ripple must still navigate regulatory challenges, including meeting capital, risk, and governance requirements, before the license can be finalized.

Julius Baer 研究分析师 Carsten Menke 表示，贵金属价格的上涨远不止是美元实际贬值这么简单。他指出，这更多反映了市场对特朗普在国内外政治博弈的担忧，本质上围绕的是美元潜在的贬值风险，而非当前已出现的疲软。虽然“贬值交易”在贵金属市场似乎再次盛行，但这种情绪在其他更庞大的市场（尤其是债券市场）中几乎未见迹象。推动金银剧烈波动所需的资金量其实相对有限，因此价格容易被情绪和短期资金流放大。该机构维持对黄金的看多立场，但对白银持中性观点。(金十)

Analyst Chris Turner from ING has highlighted the possibility of an intensified dollar sell-off. According to ChainCatcher, Turner noted that if the dollar index falls below last year's low of 96.2, the currency could experience a further 3% decline. He emphasized the importance of monitoring the dollar's performance ahead of the Federal Reserve meeting, as a pause in interest rate cuts by the Fed could offer some support to the dollar. Additionally, the financial reports from Meta, Microsoft, and Tesla are under scrutiny, with any underperformance potentially serving as another negative factor for the dollar.

荷兰国际集团分析师克里斯·特纳指出，美元抛售潮可能加剧。若美元指数有效跌破去年 96.2 附近的低点，美元可能再下跌 3%。关注美联储会议前美元的表现至关重要，若美联储转向暂停降息或为美元提供一定支撑。但他强调，若任何反弹乏力且美元当日收跌，将释放强烈看跌信号。同时，Meta、微软和特斯拉的财报亦受关注，任何业绩不及预期都可能成为美元的另一个利空因素，毕竟美国消费很大程度上依赖于股市表现。(金十)
