Ethereum's Layer 2 networks have witnessed a significant decrease in active users, falling from 58.4 million to around 30 million. According to NS3.AI, this decline comes as Ethereum's base layer has seen a doubling in active addresses. Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum, suggests that Layer 2 networks need to redefine their value proposition beyond scaling, emphasizing privacy, specialized applications, or other innovative functionalities. Despite low transaction fees on Layer 1 and plans to increase gas limits through 2026, market skepticism persists. This sentiment is reflected in notable price drops among major Layer 2 tokens.

Equinor, the Norwegian energy giant, announced a 32% decline in its fourth-quarter profits due to falling oil prices. According to Jin10, this makes Equinor the first major European energy company to release its quarterly earnings, potentially setting the tone for the upcoming earnings season. The drop in oil prices occurred amid ample supply, impacting the company's adjusted post-tax operating profit, which fell from $2.29 billion in the same period last year to $1.55 billion, below analysts' average expectation of $1.59 billion. Equinor also revealed plans for a $1.5 billion stock buyback in 2026. Last year, oil prices experienced their largest annual decline since 2020, and a significant supply surplus is expected to continue putting pressure on prices through 2026. Additionally, European natural gas prices saw a substantial decrease last year due to a surge in maritime supply. Within Equinor, increased production helped mitigate the impact of falling prices, with both domestic and overseas oil fields in Norway ramping up output.

Three major cryptocurrency investors have collectively invested $18.94 million in the gold-pegged token XAUT. According to NS3.AI, these transactions occurred as gold prices exceeded $5,000 per ounce. The acquisitions involved swapping USDC, WBTC, stETH, and USDT for XAUT and PAXG tokens.

Insight Investment's Harry Jones has highlighted in a report that the current market eagerness to price in interest rate hikes by the European Central Bank (ECB) this year is misguided. According to Jin10, Jones suggests that this miscalculation is creating trading opportunities in the eurozone bond market. Insight Investment anticipates that the ECB is more likely to maintain the deposit rate at 2% throughout 2026, with the first rate hike expected in 2027. Jones, a portfolio manager, noted that although this is not their core expectation, the ECB has room for further rate cuts if necessary. However, he pointed out that Germany's large-scale fiscal stimulus measures should raise the threshold for rate cuts, potentially leading the ECB to keep rates unchanged. He added that Insight Investment will continue to closely monitor the short end of the euro yield curve to capitalize on emerging opportunities.

Crypto KOL Bill Qian posted on X that historically, holding gold has been more challenging than holding the S&P 500. From 1971, following U.S. President Richard Nixon's televised speech, to 2025, the S&P 500 has risen in 44 out of 55 years, experiencing declines in 11 years. This means investors have seen capital appreciation in 80% of the years. In contrast, gold has increased in 34 years and decreased in 21 years, offering growth in 60% of the years and experiencing volatility in 40%. Human beings tend to be loss-averse, often perceiving losses as twice as impactful as gains. From this perspective, the 'pain' of holding gold is significantly greater than that of holding the S&P 500. However, the low correlation between the two is a notable advantage of gold. This is why Ray Dalio consistently recommends a 5%-15% allocation of gold in his all-weather portfolio. Currently, the one-year rolling correlation coefficient between gold and the S&P 500 stands at a high of 0.82. This strong positive correlation reflects the current narrative of 'currency devaluation trade,' where investors buy both quality stocks and gold to hedge against fiat currency credit risk. Historical research indicates that this relationship is highly unstable. Long-term quantitative data shows that price changes in the S&P 500 can only explain about 24% of gold's volatility (R-squared value of 0.24). Gold's core value lies in its 'decoupling' property under extreme stress. Since 1971, in years when the S&P 500 has declined, gold has outperformed stocks 88% of the time. For instance, during the 2008 financial crisis, gold rose by 21% while the stock market experienced significant downturns.
