According to Odaily, Russian President Vladimir Putin's economic advisor, Maxim Oreshkin, stated that crypto assets should be included in Russia's balance of payments statistics, noting that Bitcoin mining is becoming an "undervalued export project" for the country. He claimed that some Russian companies are using crypto assets for cross-border payments and profiting from the sale of mined Bitcoins abroad, thus having a real impact on the foreign exchange market.
According to data from Luxor Technology, Russia currently accounts for nearly 16% of global computing power, second only to the United States. Sergey Bezdelov, president of the Russian Industrial Mining Association, stated that Russian miners produced approximately 55,000 BTC in 2023, with production expected to drop to approximately 35,000 BTC in 2024 due to the halving.

According to Odaily Planet Daily, crypto market research firm Delphi Digital points out that the Federal Reserve's interest rate path next year is the clearest it has been in recent years: a further 25 basis point rate cut is expected in December 2025, bringing the federal funds rate to the 3.5%-3.75% range; the forward curve shows that there may be at least three more rate cuts in 2026, with the rate expected to fall back to around 3% by the end of the year.
The study states that, more importantly, liquidity has seen three structural improvements simultaneously: quantitative tightening (QT) officially ended on December 1, the Treasury General Account (TGA) program has been gradually reduced, and overnight reverse repos (RRPs) have been exhausted, bringing the market back to a net liquidity positive environment for the first time since the beginning of 2022.
Delphi Digital states that the SOFR and federal funds rate have fallen back to the high range of 3%, and real interest rates have also declined from their 2023-2024 highs, indicating a "controlled slowdown" rather than a sharp shift in easing. They predict that 2026 will be a year where policy shifts from headwinds to moderate tailwinds, which will benefit long-duration assets, large-cap stocks, gold, and digital assets with structural demand.

Odaily Planet Daily reports that Uniswap founder Hayden Adams has published an article pointing out that some traditional financial institutions are pushing the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to regulate decentralized protocol software developers as centralized intermediaries. He mentioned that these institutions had previously clashed over the Constitutional DAO auction and are now arguing that DeFi protocols fail to meet the "fair access" standard.
Adams stated that the so-called "fair access" is being used as a reason to strengthen regulation, while open-source, peer-to-peer technology itself can lower the barrier to liquidity creation, which is fundamentally different from the traditional market maker model.
According to Odaily Planet Daily, Aave DAO has passed a resolution to lower the loan-to-value (LTV) ratio of USDS to DAI to 0% and raise the risk reserve ratio (RF) to 25% in all Aave V3 deployments.
The proposal argues that USDS's current yield structure is narrowing and its issuance mechanism carries certain asymmetric risks, making it unsuitable as collateral. In response, MakerDAO founder Rune stated that there are still misunderstandings about the lending logic of the Sky ecosystem, and that USDS still has the opportunity to be reinstated as collateral assets in the future with increased transparency and scalability.
