Zhao Changpeng posted on X platform, "It is truly disgusting to see another attempt to attack President Trump at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. Fortunately, he, the First Lady, Vice President Vance, and all those present are safe."

The newly appointed chief economist of New Fire Group, Fu Peng, stated on Twitter that the underlying business model of Bitcoin perpetual contracts is essentially the same as the "rollover fee/overnight fee" in traditional finance's gold and industrial commodity spot exchanges.Fu Peng pointed out that back in the day, gold exchanges settled through daily forced liquidation, with longs and shorts paying each other rollover fees. When retail investors held a large number of high-leverage long positions, the rollover fee became the most stable and hidden source of income for the platform. Nowadays, Bitcoin spot platforms mainly rely on perpetual contracts, with both sides settling the funding rate every 8 hours. When longs dominate, retail investors holding long positions continuously pay funding rates to shorts.Although the platform does not directly collect this fee, it significantly enhances trading activity, open interest, and liquidity, indirectly generating a large amount of fee income and forming a stable and substantial cash flow. Essentially, it is a business model where large players/institutions "collect rent" from long-term holdings, retail investors pay for leverage to go long, and the platform indirectly takes a cut.

Bitget announced a strategic partnership with the crypto data intelligence platform Market Prophit to jointly launch an AI-driven social trading tool. This feature is based on Market Prophit's AI engine, which performs real-time scans of vast data on platform X and combines it with the historical market prediction performance of relevant accounts to provide a comprehensive score, helping users more efficiently identify high-quality trading signals and execute strategies directly on the platform.The tool supports a two-way trading mechanism, allowing users to automatically follow high-quality social trading accounts or to take reverse positions on accounts with significant long-term prediction deviations. By transforming unstructured social media sentiment into systematic, executable trading strategies, it further enhances the complete decision-making chain from information capture and signal filtering to one-click trading.Igor Gonta, CEO of Market Prophit, stated that price fluctuations in the crypto market are often highly correlated with social media sentiment. This collaboration aims to convert complex and dispersed market sentiment into quantifiable, tradable standardized indicators, providing users with more systematic trading references to help them capture a wider range of strategic opportunities in a volatile market.

The vault protocol 3F, built on the decentralized lending protocol Morpho, has completed a total financing of $4 million, led by Maven 11, with participation from institutions such as F-Prime, GSR, and Gate Ventures. The company did not disclose a specific valuation.It is reported that 3F is built on top of Morpho, aiming to provide users with RWA leveraged exposure through a "one-click operation." Users only need to select the target asset and leverage multiple, and the protocol will automatically complete the entire position-building process: including purchasing the underlying asset through short-term bridge financing, depositing it as collateral in Morpho, and borrowing stablecoins to repay the financing. This mechanism essentially simplifies the "looping" process in traditional DeFi, which involves repeatedly buying assets, collateralizing, lending, and reinvesting.While this process can be efficiently completed in pure crypto assets through flash loans, it is usually more complex and inefficient in RWA scenarios due to issues such as settlement delays. 3F is expected to officially launch in the second quarter of this year.

Meanwhile, oil prices remain around $100 per barrel, creating a coexistence of inflationary pressure and slowing growth. QCP also noted that BTC's open interest has significantly rebounded, and the funding rate remains negative, indicating that shorts are still increasing their positions during the rise; the options market overall is still pricing for volatility rather than a continuation of trends.
