Powell vows to hold firm as Trump launches new attack on Fed.
Bitcoin’s price briefly jumped 2% before returning to just above $90,000.
Bitcoin’s price jumped 2% on Sunday after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell vowed to hold firm against a new attack from US President Donald Trump.
In Trump’s latest salvo, the Justice Department served the Fed with grand jury subpoenas and is threatening a criminal indictment. That means the DOJ is legally forcing the Fed to hand over evidence relating to Powell’s testimony on office renovations to the Senate Banking Committee in June 2025 to decide if a crime was committed.
“This unprecedented action should be seen in the broader context of the administration’s threats and ongoing pressure,” Powell said.
The move by the White House is a serious escalation in the long-running feud between Trump and Powell. No American president has ever launched a similar attack against a sitting Fed chair.
The central bank has traditionally been free of pressure from the Oval Office, and operates on a mandate of ensuring stable prices and maximum employment.
Trump has aggressively insisted on more and deeper rate cuts to support the US economy. Powell has taken a more cautious approach. Yet, Trump’s aggressive rhetoric towards the Fed has spooked some investors who fear the central bank’s independence is under threat.
“This new threat is not about my testimony last June or about the renovation of the Federal Reserve buildings,” Powell said. “Those are pretexts.”
“The threat of criminal charges is a consequence of the Federal Reserve setting interest rates based on our best assessment of what will serve the public, rather than following the preferences of the president,” he said.
In December, the US central bank slashed interest rates to their lowest level in three years.
“When chair Powell addresses the public directly on a Sunday afternoon, it is either a financial crisis or something equally important,” Peter Tillmann, economics professor at Justus-Liebig University Giessen, said on LinkedIn.
Crypto impact
Riskier assets like Bitcoin or tech stocks are highly dependent on Fed policy. Lower interest rates tend to push up the prices of these assets by disincentivising investors to hold bonds.
But despite the strong tailwinds that have pushed stocks and gold to new record highs, crypto has lagged behind. The overall crypto market is down $1 trillion from its all-time high set in October.
The CME FedWatch tool shows that the Fed is likely to hold interest rates at their current level during the next Open Market Committee meeting on January 28.

The Ether–Bitcoin (ETH/BTC) ratio bottomed in April 2025 and has since followed a trajectory similar to the 2019 market cycle, according to crypto market analyst Michaël van de Poppe.
A surge in stablecoins, tokenized real-world assets (RWAs), which are traditional or physical assets represented as tokens on a blockchain, and developer activity on the Ethereum network are reasons to be bullish on Ethereum’s price, van de Poppe said.
“The stablecoin supply on Ethereum has seen an increase of more than 65% in 2025. It’s doubled since the peak in 2021,” he wrote in a Sunday X post.

The total stablecoin market capitalization on Ethereum is over $163.9 billion, with about 52% of the market cap dominated by stablecoin issuer Tether’s USDt (USDT) dollar-pegged stablecoin, according to DefiLlama.
Ethereum processed about $8 trillion in stablecoin transfer volume in Q4 2024 alone, according to Token Terminal.
The contrarian analysis of investor sentiment that Ether (ETH) is dead or dying followed ETH briefly, tapping $3,300 and breaking above its 365-day moving average, before falling back to about $3,100, the price at the time of publication.

“ETH is called dead, as it has been trending downwards for four years against Bitcoin (BTC). However, since April 2025, it has bottomed out, and we’re already in an Ethereum market,” van de Poppe said.
He shared a chart of the Ethereum-Bitcoin (ETH-BTC) ratio, a metric that tracks the price and strength of ETH against BTC, which bottomed in April, around 0.017, before rallying to a local high of 0.043 in August 2025.

The ratio climbed back down to 0.034, the level at the time of this writing, following a market-wide crash in October that disrupted the upward price trend in crypto markets.
Current investor sentiment about Ethereum is similar to investor sentiment patterns that preceded previous price rallies, according to crypto market analysis company Santiment.

Crypto investment products posted significant outflows last week, with a four-day run of withdrawals erasing part of the $1.5 billion in inflows seen during the first two trading days of 2026.
Crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs) saw $454 million in outflows last week, European crypto asset manager CoinShares reported on Monday.
“This turnaround in sentiment appears to stem mainly from investor worries over the diminishing prospects of a Federal Reserve interest rate cut in March following recent macro data releases,” CoinShares’ head of research, James Butterfill, said in the update.
Despite last week’s outflows, month-to-date flows remained positive at $229 million, following $582 million of inflows the previous week.
Bitcoin leads the negative sentiment with $405 million outflows
Major cryptocurrency Bitcoin (BTC) drove the negative sentiment in crypto ETPs last week, posting outflows of $405 million. Short-BTC funds saw minor outflows of $9 million, leaving overall market sentiment for the asset mixed, Butterfill noted.
On the other hand, altcoin funds for assets such as XRP (XRP), Solana (SOL) and Sui (SUI) saw a persisting positive trend, with inflows totaling around $46 million, $33 million and $8 million, respectively.

Ether (ETH) funds saw $116 million outflows, while multi-asset altcoin products also posted combined outflows of $21 million.
US the only market to bear major losses
Geographically, the United States was the only market to show negative sentiment, with outflows reaching $569 million.
By contrast, several countries, including Germany, Canada and Switzerland, saw inflows of $59 million, $25 million and $21 million, respectively.

By the end of last week, crypto ETP issuers held $181.9 billion in assets under management, slightly up from $181.3 billion the previous week.

Qashio, the MENA region’s leading spend management platform, has officially launched its European headquarters in Dublin, marking a significant milestone in its global expansion strategy.
The opening, announced on 18 December 2025, represents the company’s fifth office launch in just 12 months, following recent expansions into Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Dubai, and Abu Dhabi. While Qashio has been operating in the European market since 2024, the new headquarters establishes a permanent foothold to drive further growth across the continent.
High-level government backing
The launch event was held at Investopia and attended by top government officials from both nations, underscoring the strengthening economic ties between the UAE and Ireland.
Notable attendees included H.E. Abdullah Bin Touq Al Marri, UAE Minister of Economy and Tourism; H.E. Simon Harris, Ireland’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance; and H.E. Mohammed Homod Hamad Rahmah Al Shamsi, the UAE Ambassador to Ireland. They were joined by Qashio’s leadership team, including Chairman Antoine Massad, CEO Armin Moradi, and Europe Expansion Manager Mohammed Noufal.
The move is supported by key entities including IDA Ireland, EMIR, the UAE Ministry of Economy, Dubai Chambers, and Investopia. It highlights the deepening relationship between the two countries, which currently sees bilateral trade nearing €8 billion.
Dublin as a strategic launchpad
With Dublin serving as its European hub, Qashio has announced plans to hire over 100 new team members across sales, marketing, product, engineering, and finance. These hires will support the creation of Qashio Labs, a state-of-the-art R&D facility designed to attract global talent to the tech hub.
Armin Moradi, founder and CEO of Qashio, commented on the company’s trajectory: “Qashio was founded in Dubai but built for the world we had from our early days the ambition to expand outside of the middle east and into the global markets, that ambition shaped how we think about scale, resilience, and real-world financial complexity.”.
He added: “Dublin now becomes our launchpad for Europe, where we aim to build deep local partnerships, attract global talent, and develop products that serve businesses operating across borders.”.
To support this international push, Qashio has completed technical developments to evolve its product beyond a standalone expense management tool. The company is advancing toward a “fully integrated fintech platform” offering seamless control over company spend, card issuance, rewards, and financial operations across multiple geographies.
The European expansion follows a year of aggressive growth for Qashio in its home region. In 2025, the company acquired Sanad Cash to enter the Saudi market and launched Qashio for Travel, a specialized platform for UAE-based travel agencies.
Qashio stated that the Irish capital was selected for its reputation as a home for global technology companies, its supportive regulatory environment, and access to world-class talent.
The timing of the headline-driven move immediately made traders suspicious. Bitcoin, they noted, tends to cancel out gains made before the start of a new TradFi trading week.
“Hopefully, like we’ve seen many weeks, we’ll get a scam-pump on Sunday so we can look for shorts early in the week. With the weak ~$87,600 monthly open as final target,” trader Lennaert Snyder told X followers in advance of the weekend.
“Needless to say with current headlines today is going to be super interesting,” trader Skew predicted Monday.
“Commodities as a whole are getting bid here including BTC with some spot buying lifting price here.”
On higher time frames, trader CrypNuevo focused on the 50-week exponential moving average (EMA) at $97,400 as a potential upside target before new lows.
“My main scenario over the past month is that price will revisit the range lows before it can go higher – I expect Bitcoin to go back to low $80’s,” he said.
CrypNuevo remained bullish on 2026 as a whole, considering optimal market entries and $73,000 as a “worst case scenario.”

“Sudden squeezes” become standard
Multiple classic BTC price metrics are aligning to predict a fresh round of market volatility.
New findings from onchain analytics platform CryptoQuant put exchange order-book liquidity in the firing line.
“Liquidation spikes on both the long and short side align closely with sharp wicks and fast reversals. This behavior is typical of liquidity hunts, where overleveraged positions are forced out during periods of compressed price action,” contributor The Alchemist 9 wrote in a Quicktake blog post Sunday.
The post described BTC price action as “increasingly shaped by liquidation events rather than organic spot demand.”
Open interest, funding rates and the Bollinger Bands volatility indicator all point to “sudden squeezes” taking place on lower timeframes.
“Volatility here appears to be manufactured by leverage resets rather than sustained spot buying or selling,” The Alchemist 9 said.

CryptoQuant acknowledged that liquidity hunts do not imply a strong upward or downward trend.
The latest liquidity data from monitoring resource CoinGlass shows a key area of interest at $90,000.
A big week for US inflation data could become even more volatile as geopolitics meets a showdown between the government and the Federal Reserve.
The latest releases of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and Producer Price Index (PPI) come as markets assess the fallout from the US quasi-takeover of Venezuela and threats to intervene in Iran.
At the same time, the US Supreme Court is due to rule on the legality of the international trade tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump last year.
As Cointelegraph reported, crypto markets remain highly sensitive to any news events related to tariffs and their implications for liquidity trends.
“Early-January volatility has created some exceptional trading conditions for investors,” trading resource The Kobeissi Letter summarized on X.
A weekend curveball came in the form of Fed Chair Jerome Powell, who became the subject of a criminal investigation — allegedly over the handling of a renovation project.
In a statement, Powell openly suggested that the motives for the move by the Department of Justice (DOJ) lay elsewhere, specifically interest rates not falling as quickly as Trump wanted.
“This new threat is not about my testimony last June or about the renovation of the Federal Reserve buildings. It is not about Congress’s oversight role; the Fed through testimony and other public disclosures made every effort to keep Congress informed about the renovation project. Those are pretexts,” he said.
“The threat of criminal charges is a consequence of the Federal Reserve setting interest rates based on our best assessment of what will serve the public, rather than following the preferences of the President.”
Stock market futures fell immediately after the statement went public, while gold hit new all-time highs of $4,601 per ounce.
The timing of the debacle is notable, coming just weeks before the Fed is due to avoid another rate cut at its Jan. 28 meeting.
“Trump vs Powell will result in even more volatility,” Kobeissi added.
Multiple senior Fed officials are set to take to the stage for public speaking engagements this week.
Bitfinex whales’ Bitcoin longs roll over
Bitfinex whales continue to point the way forward when it comes to BTC price trends — if history is a guide.

Throughout much of the bull cycle, whales pivoting in this way preceded periods of price upside, and market participants are hoping that this time will be no different.
“From a long-term perspective, a bull market is already underway,” pseudonymous crypto investor and data analyst CW, a contributor to onchain analytics platform CryptoQuant, commented on the topic Monday.
“While the short-term may be confusing, the current situation is a little noise in the long run.”

The last reversal from local highs came in April last year, around the time that BTC/USD saw long-term lows near $75,000. In the coming weeks, the pair gained 50%.
In his own analysis at the weekend, commentator MartyParty employed the Wyckoff method to predict history repeating, calling for a swing low, known as the “spring,” to emerge next.
“This precedes the Wyckoff Spring,” he told X followers.
Bitfinex longs currently total around 71,800 BTC, marking their lowest levels since Dec. 15.
Bear market still a 2026 reality
Bitcoin maturing as an asset has not made it immune from bear markets — and 2026 could easily prove that, new analysis says.

Updating followers on Bitcoin’s power law price model, Jurrien Timmer, director of global macro at Fidelity Investments, said that this year could end up as a giant consolidation period for BTC/USD, followed by a new bear market low.
“It’s interesting that a lot of Bitcoin folks are proclaiming that the four year cycle is dead and a new structural up wave is at hand,” he wrote.
“I’m skeptical, not about the waning power of the halving cycle (with which I agree), but the idea that bear markets are no longer going to happen.”

As Cointelegraph reported late last year, BTC price hugging its power law trend line for much of the bull market was already giving rise to calls for major upside.
Now, executive David Eng describes price as “coiling below” its long-term growth trajectory, with only one viable outcome.
“Bitcoin is Compressed Below Its Growth Law, and Compression Always Resolves Upward,” he summarized on X.
Eng added that “history says resolution comes by price catching up, not the law giving way.”

As crypto markets entered 2026, one theme became increasingly clear: Last year was less about speculation and more about infrastructure, regulation and real-world use. Across jurisdictions, regulators and institutions moved from theory to implementation, reshaping how digital assets are supervised and used.
A defining feature of this shift was the rise of stablecoins. While Bitcoin (BTC) continues to dominate crypto market capitalization, stablecoins now account for more than half of all onchain transaction volumes globally. Their increasing role in payments, remittances, and trading has placed them firmly in the center of regulatory attention, particularly as governments grapple with financial stability and compliance risks.
In this week’s episode of Byte-Sized Insight, Cointelegraph explores how these changes played out in practice, drawing on insights from Matthias Bauer-Langgartner, head of policy for Europe at Chainalysis.
Stablecoins aren’t on the sidelines
Bauer-Langgartner said, “2025 has been a year of stablecoins.”
He began by highlighting that this isn’t particularly new, as their dominance has been building for years. According to Chainalysis data, stablecoins now “clearly dominate the crypto assets landscape with more than 50% of transactional volumes,” even as Bitcoin retains roughly half of total market capitalization.
That growth has made stablecoins attractive for legitimate use cases and for illicit ones.
“Stablecoins have [also] been dominating the crypto assets transactional volumes already for quite a while now, both in illicit usage and also in legitimate usage.”
He added that criminals favor stablecoins because they are liquid, globally accessible, and avoid volatility. Still, that same structure creates enforcement leverage.
“Centralized stablecoin issuers typically have the ability to freeze or even burn stablecoins,” he said, calling it “an extremely powerful tool to combat financial crime.”
Crypto crime turns geopolitical
Beyond individual scams and hacks, 2025 also marked a shift toward state-linked crypto activity.
Bauer-Langgartner said, “2025 has really been, in many, many instances, a record year also for crypto crime.” Chainalysis recorded $154 billion in illicit crypto flows, a 162% increase year-over-year.

Much of that growth was driven by nation-state actors, he said.
“Nation-state actors are facilitating crypto usage for illicit activity on a really professional level.”
In the episode, he also broke down specific sanctioned stablecoins and state-backed networks used for sanctions evasion.
Despite the surge, Bauer-Langgartner said illicit activity still represents a small share of overall usage. “Even with the increase we’ve seen, it’s still under 1% of overall activity,” he said, underscoring the challenge regulators face as adoption accelerates.
He also highlighted Europe’s ongoing implementation of the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation and how it, along with other global frameworks, is taking shape and creating a more structured industry.

Thursday, 8 January 2026 – As 2026 kicks off at full throttle, it’s impossible to overlook the strong “risk-on” signals lighting up markets worldwide. Just look at the Caracas Stock Exchange: Venezuelan equities have gone parabolic, posting a 44x surge since 2024, driven by recent political turmoil and a full-scale market re-rating.
Investors are now chasing high-beta opportunities, but while legacy markets need years to pull off a 44x move, crypto can do it in moments. For those searching for pure, high-octane upside, Maxi Doge (MAXI) is the one project to watch.
Maxi Doge can be viewed as Dogecoin (DOGE) multiplied by 1,000. It represents the most aggressive, most jacked evolution of the original meme coin to date – quite literally. This Shiba Inu isn’t just lifting weights; it’s aiming for a near-vertical move on the charts.
And this isn’t a launch fueled by hype alone. The project runs on the combined conviction of seasoned players who dominate this space. It’s a direct call to every hardcore bro who lives by the code and understands that stocks are simply stonks waiting for ignition.
Time is limited, however. In the next 15 hours, the current MAXI price of $0.0002765 will disappear. The upcoming funding phase sets a higher buy-in, so anyone looking to secure a position before the increase needs to act now.
Venezuelan Stocks Rally, While Meme Coins Show Big Gains Can Come Quicker
Venezuela’s main equity benchmark, the Caracas Stock Exchange, has climbed 172.3% since the start of the year, with momentum accelerating after Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro was captured by U.S. forces.
Gains in Venezuelan equities have been building since 2024, with some stocks rising as much as 44x. Put into perspective, a $1,000 investment in the index two years ago would now be worth $44,000.
As markets move back into a clear “risk-on” phase, sentiment has shifted sharply. The Fear and Greed Index jumped from extreme fear in December to a neutral reading, signaling that investors are once again actively seeking opportunities across markets to boost returns.
Although a 44x move in equities is uncommon, the crypto market has delivered similar results far more frequently. Consider the original meme coin, Dogecoin (DOGE): from its early January 2021 price to its peak four to five months later, DOGE surged 73.76x, a move achieved 81.5% faster than the recent run of the Caracas Stock Exchange.
DOGE is only one case. Other leading meme coins, including Pepe (PEPE), have also recorded explosive rallies. There are even historical reports of a trader turning $27 into $52 million, representing a 192,592,811.85% return, or a 1,925,926x gain.
Despite their potential for outsized returns, these tokens share common characteristics: strong meme appeal and highly engaged communities that drive momentum. Still, it’s important to note that expecting a repeat of past performance may not be realistic. Many of today’s top meme coins now carry multi-billion-dollar valuations. While upside remains possible, the scale of earlier gains is unlikely to be repeated.
This is where the real opportunity in meme coin hunting emerges. There are still undervalued projects, or tokens that are not yet broadly available to investors, which display similar traits to established names.
One such example is Maxi Doge, currently in presale. Its core DNA closely mirrors that of Dogecoin, but with a key difference: it brings 1,000x more attitude and a far louder, more aggressive presence than the original.
The Evolution of the Beast
Maxi Doge contains all the fundamental ingredients needed for a meme coin with breakout potential. It is upfront about its role as an unrestrained market disruptor, intentionally distancing itself from the rigid, traditional assets typically preferred by conventional investors.
In many respects, it mirrors Dogecoin in its early days, when the original pup openly mocked Bitcoin by poking fun at the very principles its most devoted supporters held dear. Maxi Doge, however, isn’t directing its humor at Bitcoin or even its own predecessor.
Instead, it represents a high-energy extension of the foundation Dogecoin created, redesigned to fit today’s fast-moving, ultra-aggressive crypto environment.
Think of this built-up pup as the released form of a Dogecoin that stayed dormant for too long. While the original remains iconic, MAXI is the product of endless late nights—investors fueled by Red Bulls and gym sessions until they brought to life an asset capable of pumping with the same intensity DOGE once delivered.
Operating on that shared, rapid-fire mindset, they’ve produced a new version of the OG that loudly signals 1,000x potential to anyone paying attention.
The market response is already evident. While meme coins are driven by memetics, they endure through community strength, and Maxi Doge has quickly assembled a sizable reserve, with investors contributing more than $4.4 million to its presale so far.
The project is fully committed to broad exposure. This phase is only the beginning; with 65% of the total marketing budget allocated to amplifying its presence, it’s only a matter of time before every bro in the crypto space hears the message.
How to Buy MAXI
As Venezuelan oil stocks rally following the recent change in regime, meme coins such as MAXI highlight just how quickly the crypto market can deliver results that take traditional equities years to achieve.
If Venezuelan assets represent the high-beta opportunity within TradFi, then a heavily rebuilt, muscle-packed version of DOGE stands as the nuclear-level alternative for crypto investors.
To take part, join the presale by visiting the official presale page. MAXI can be purchased using ETH, BNB, USDT, or USDC, and buyers also have the option to pay with a bank card.
For storage, Maxi Doge recommends Best Wallet, widely regarded as one of the top crypto wallets available. It’s free to download on both Google Play and the Apple App Store.
Newly acquired MAXI tokens are eligible for a dynamic 70% APY.
Security is also covered. The Maxi Doge smart contract has been fully audited by Coinsult and SOLIDProof, confirming the absence of security issues.
