@_FORAB The US region is number one globally.

Today, we saw that Daiwa Securities, which manages over $240 billion in assets, established a new position of 1.9 million shares of $IBIT and 1.9 million put options on $IBIT in the fourth quarter of 2025. This is Daiwa Securities' first purchase. In simpler terms, after buying 1.9 million shares of IBIT, Daiwa Securities, concerned about a potential drop in $BTC, hedged by buying the same number of put options. This is a common protective hedging strategy, holding a long position in an asset while simultaneously hedging against the risk of price declines through put options. If the price of Bitcoin falls, the value of IBIT decreases, but the value of the put options increases, thus partially or completely offsetting the loss. This strongly suggests that Daiwa Securities is tentatively establishing exposure to Bitcoin. @bitget VIP, lower fees, better benefits

I had to go out suddenly, so this is a bit messy. Also, it's a pity that there's no ETF holding price for ETH.

I woke up not knowing what had happened, but the price is acceptable, so I'm buying in batches, buying more as the price drops. I'll see how it goes after I buy.

Paul Atkins's remarks and expectations for pension fund investments in cryptocurrencies on CNBC's "Squawk Box" on January 29, 2026. 1. Progress on the Digital Asset Market Structure Bill Atkins emphasized that Congress is close to passing the bill, but did not provide a specific timeline or guarantee that it will soon become law. He stated that Congress has never been closer to getting bipartisan market structure legislation to President Trump's desk. This reflects an optimistic but cautious attitude; the bill aims to provide a federal framework for the crypto market. Responding to the host's question about whether it could pass before the end of the year, he said, "We'll see. We're working with Congress to provide technical assistance, ensuring the legislation is reasonable and aligned with other laws. But I can't predict." This also indicates that the SEC is providing support, but ultimately it depends on congressional negotiations. He mentioned that the bill is getting closer to Trump's desk as legislation progresses, emphasizing that the SEC and CFTC are ready to implement it after passage, but did not suggest "soon." 2. SEC-CFTC Collaboration and Project Crypto Atkins and CFTC Chairman Mike Selig jointly emphasized the collaboration between the two agencies to fulfill the Trump administration's promise to "make America the crypto capital." Regarding Project Crypto, he described it as "one of the most ambitious initiatives of our generation." 3. On Crypto Asset Regulatory Framework and Innovation Atkins pointed out that even without legislation, the SEC has sufficient authority to push forward. He mentioned plans to introduce innovation exemptions, hoping for a rollout in about a month. This aims to embrace innovation and avoid past resistance to crypto. He also stressed that rules should be appropriate for their purpose. He also mentioned that the SEC has previously provided more clarity, such as statements on memes, stablecoins, mining, and staking, as well as guidance for brokers and investment managers. 4. Regarding Cryptocurrency Investments in Retirement Plans (e.g., 401(k)) Atkins stated that it's time to discuss allowing crypto into retirement plans. He pointed out that many Americans are already indirectly exposed to crypto assets and emphasized the need to invest in crypto through regulated products such as 401(k) managed by professional asset managers, but with "guardrails" to protect investors. This could become a reality if the Clarity Act (possibly part of the Market Structure Act) passes. @bitget VIP, lower fees, better benefits

@bitget It's started. As usual, the initial readings won't be mainly translated; they're available on the Federal Reserve's website. The main focus will be translating the Q&A session. @bitget It's finished.

@bitget Regarding tariffs The impact of tariffs is significant. We've been compiling this data in real time, and we're seeing the effects of tariffs on the economy and inflation. We've built a model of the tariff impact. Currently, we haven't seen international retaliation, which we would have seen in the past, but it hasn't happened yet. However, we need to anticipate it.

@bitget Question 20: The problem with the Federal Reserve's economic model; some believe the model is bad. Powell's answer: We're trying to answer that many things aren't in the model. Many things that have happened in 100 years haven't been in the model, such as the pandemic and tariffs of this scale. We also hope to adjust and try to adjust various models.

@bitget Is the rise in gold and silver prices related to the Federal Reserve? This has little to do with macroeconomics.

@bitget Question 19: Advice for the future Federal Reserve Chairman. Powell's answer: Don't get involved in electoral politics. The rest is meaningless.
