Odaily News One of the Big Four accounting firms, Ernst & Young (EY), stated that wallets are evolving from crypto tools into the core entry point for the next generation of financial systems. It pointed out that "the wallet itself is the strategy; whoever controls the wallet controls the customer relationship." EY analyst Mark Nichols noted that wallets will become key infrastructure for storing, transferring, and managing tokenized assets. In the future, they will not only be applicable to crypto assets but will also cover on-chain financial scenarios such as payments, stablecoins, and private credit, becoming a unified entry point connecting all on-chain financial activities including payments, tokenized assets, and stablecoins. However, EY expects self-custody wallets will struggle to become mainstream, and the future market will be dominated by trusted wallet service providers such as banks, fintech companies, and professional custodial institutions.

Odaily The crypto community is divided on Bitcoin's short-term trajectory, with some analysts warning of potential new lows, while other traders are already targeting $84,000. Details are as follows:
1. Keith Alan, co-founder of Material Indicators, stated that the BTC price bottom has not yet been reached, and the current primary task is capital preservation. Keith Alan pointed out that the $69,000 high from 2021 is crucial in the current relief rally. While $60,000 was yesterday's support, it is highly likely that prices will fall to lower levels before the bull market returns.
2. Rekt Capital believes historical trends suggest BTC still has room to fall. After reaching a bull market peak in the fourth quarter of the post-halving year, BTC often experiences months of a relief rally, followed by a break below the macro triangle bottom and entry into an accelerated decline phase. The current cycle is the fourth consecutive one to align with this historical tendency.
3. Analyst Michaël van de Poppe offered a different perspective, stating that he expects market prices to rebound to fill the CME gap, with the potential for continued gains above $75,000 next week.
4. Samson Mow, CEO of JAN3, stated that BTC will soon fill the $84,000 CME futures gap. He also highlighted the significance of large corporations' ability to purchase BTC as a reserve asset. (Cointelegraph)
Odaily News As early as last June, "Trump Mobile Company," part of U.S. President Trump's vast business empire, announced the launch of the "Trump T1" phone. By now, people had almost given up hope of seeing it come to market. However, a new report suggests it will eventually reach consumers. According to an interview with U.S. tech media The Verge, company executives stated that there are still some planned modifications for this phone, such as removing the T1 logo. The American flag and gold color scheme on the back cover will still be retained. The specifications for the screen and camera will also be upgraded. The company's executives said that to reflect the "improvement in quality," the price will be increased. Some users who have already paid a $100 deposit will still need to pay the final $499 balance, while customers purchasing later will face a higher price, but "it will not exceed $1,000." The company has also retracted its previous statement about the phone being manufactured in the U.S., now saying that the "final assembly" of the phone will be completed in the United States, while most of the manufacturing process will take place elsewhere, though no one disclosed the specific location.

Odaily News According to statistics from Lookonchain, Yi Lihua's leveraged long position on ETH in this round resulted in a total loss of approximately $747 million.
Odaily News Bithumb has issued a follow-up announcement regarding the "Bitcoin mistaken airdrop" incident. The platform stated that during the distribution of activity rewards yesterday, an input error regarding the Bitcoin quantity led to a large amount of Bitcoin being airdropped to some customers. Within 35 minutes of the erroneous payment, Bithumb restricted transactions and withdrawals for 695 customers, and over 99% of the mistakenly paid amount has been recovered. The specific details are as follows:
1. Erroneously transferred quantity: 620,000 BTC (accounting for 2.95% of the total BTC supply);
2. Quantity recovered: 618,212 BTC (approximately 99.7% of the total amount);
3. Assets equivalent to the 1,788 BTC that had been sold (in Korean Won and other virtual assets) have also been 93% recovered (It has been confirmed that none of the mistakenly transferred Bitcoin was sent to external addresses);
It is worth mentioning that Bithumb's platform only holds approximately 460,000 BTC in reserves.
Odaily News On-chain analyst Yu Jin posted on X, indicating that Yi Lihua's address appears not to be merely deleveraging but rather liquidating positions.
Currently, the relevant address has transferred 630,400 ETH ($1.294 billion) into Binance, leaving only 21,300 ETH ($43.94 million) on-chain. 96% of the ETH has already been transferred to the exchange, a quantity far exceeding what would be needed to sell for deleveraging purposes, so it is highly likely a complete liquidation is underway.
Odaily News On-chain data shows that after significantly deleveraging, Yilihua now only has lending positions remaining in two addresses (0x85e0...eec8, 0x6e9e...8c89), specifically:
1. The health factor for address 0x85e0...eec8 is 1.57, with a remaining debt size of only $10.53 million and a liquidation price of $1,299.
2. The health factor for address 0x6e9e...8c89 is 1.38, with a remaining debt size of only $14.21 million and a liquidation price of $1,485.
