Understanding Key Crypto Terms: FOMO, HODL, and More

In the fast-paced world of cryptocurrency, understanding key terms is crucial for both new and seasoned investors. "FOMO" or "Fear Of Missing Out" describes the panic buying behavior often seen in volatile markets. Meanwhile, "HODL," a misspelled version of "hold," encourages investors to maintain their positions despite market fluctuations. Other important terms include "DYOR" (Do Your Own Research), which advises investors to independently verify information before investing, and "Moon," which refers to a cryptocurrency's price skyrocketing. "Bagholder" describes someone left with worthless assets after a market downturn, while "Pump" and "Dump" refer to artificially inflating and then selling off assets for profit. Understanding these terms can help navigate the complexities of crypto trading.

Bitcoin Cash Outperforms Layer 1 Peers Amid Market Decline

Bitcoin Cash (BCH) has emerged as a standout performer among Layer 1 cryptocurrencies this year, according to CryptoKoryo. While most Layer 1 tokens, including Ethereum (ETH), Bitcoin (BTC), Solana (SOL), and Avalanche (AVAX), have seen declines ranging from 10% to 80%, BCH, along with BNB, HYPE, and TRX, has posted gains. BCH's resilience is attributed to its unique supply dynamics and demand factors. With its entire supply already in circulation, BCH faces no token unlocks or mandatory selling pressure, unlike many newer Layer 1 projects burdened by vesting schedules and inflationary incentives. Additionally, the potential approval of a BCH ETF has sparked interest from traditional finance institutions, further boosting demand. BCH's liquidity and low volatility make it an attractive option for large funds seeking exposure without high risk.

Effective TGE Launch Hinges on Community and Product Readiness

A successful Token Generation Event (TGE) requires more than just hype; it demands rigorous testing of the project's community, narrative, tokenomics, and product readiness. Key to a successful launch is building genuine and sustained mindshare, maintaining an active community, and ensuring transparent token utility that can be realized on the TGE day. Projects that rely on artificial hype, hidden unlocks, or immature products risk rapid exposure and poor token performance. If a project is not ready for market scrutiny, delaying the TGE is the most prudent strategy.

Bitcoin Treasury Firms Reassess Models Amid Equity Premium Collapse

Bitcoin treasury companies are reevaluating their business models following a significant collapse in equity premiums to net asset value in late 2025. This structural reversal, highlighted by Galaxy Digital, was exacerbated by an October deleveraging event that led to sharp declines in open interest and liquidity. Key players like Strategy (MSTR) saw their multiples to net asset value fall below 1.0, while Metaplanet and Nakamoto (NAKA) faced severe compression in mNAV. The downturn has turned unrealized profits into losses as Bitcoin prices fell from $126,000 to approximately $90,000. Galaxy Research has cautioned that the treasury model now resembles a path-dependent instrument, with future outcomes heavily reliant on issuance strategies and the health of balance sheets.

Crypto Market Shows Signs of Stabilization Amid Bearish Trends

Glassnode's latest report highlights parallels between the current crypto market and the early 2022 bear market, noting a decline in open interest from November to December, reflecting reduced risk appetite. Following a flash crash on October 10th, investor sentiment in the options market remains cautious, with a preference for selling over chasing gains. As Bitcoin neared $80,000, put options were favored, but stabilized prices have led to increased call option activity. Perpetual contract funding rates have stayed mostly neutral, with only brief negative turns, and funding premiums have dropped, suggesting a more balanced market and less speculation. Despite this, ETF demand is waning, with IBIT experiencing outflows for six consecutive weeks, totaling over $2.7 billion in redemptions. This marks the longest negative outflow streak since its inception in January 2024, underscoring a continued decline in risk appetite.

23.56 Trillion SHIB Tokens Moved in 24 Hours Due to Likely Glitch

A reported movement of 23.56 trillion SHIB tokens within a 24-hour period has been attributed to a likely technical glitch, according to data from CryptoQuant. Despite the massive token movement, SHIB's price remains stable at $0.000008416, experiencing only a minor 0.71% decline. The market has shown little reaction to the reported anomaly, with no significant changes in trading volume or exchange reserves. This suggests the movement may be due to internal wallet reorganization or a counting error, rather than genuine market activity.

In parallel, AVAX's ecosystem is gaining momentum through a significant partnership with Mugafi, valued at over $10 million. This collaboration aims to enhance on-chain creator rights and fan ownership in the entertainment sector, potentially increasing network activity as AVAX navigates these pivotal price levels.

Bitcoin's 'Digital Gold' Status Challenged by Recent Volatility

Bitcoin's recent price decline has sparked debate over its status as 'digital gold' and a stable store of value. Nate Geraci of NovaDius Wealth Management pointed out that despite Bitcoin's strong performance during the 2025 'tariff tantrum' sell-off, its recent sharper fall compared to the stock market raises concerns about its volatility. Geraci described Bitcoin as a 15-16-year-old asset, suggesting it is too young and volatile to be a true store of value. The recent sell-off was influenced by weakness in tech stocks and high leverage in the crypto market, leading to significant outflows from spot Bitcoin ETFs over the past month. Geraci also noted that most other cryptocurrencies behave more like tech stocks than stable stores of value, further questioning Bitcoin's role as a digital safe haven.

Kevin O’Leary Predicts U.S. Regulations Will Favor Bitcoin and Ethereum

He anticipates that institutions will allocate 3-5% of their portfolios to BTC and ETH, which could capture 90% of market performance, as stablecoins and digital assets become standardized under new laws.

Web3 Projects Thriving Amid Market Downturn

In the current market environment characterized by liquidity tightening and narrative decline, certain Web3 projects are proving resilient. These projects fall into three main categories: centralized exchanges that profit steadily from transaction fees, on-chain protocols like PerpDex, stablecoin issuers, and high-frequency blockchains that have established a complete business cycle, and crypto KOL ecosystems that monetize attention and have restructured content during the bear market. These projects share a common trait of having stable revenue streams, relying less on funding or narrative-driven growth.

Bitcoin Cash Surges 40%, Leading Layer-1 Performance in 2025

Bitcoin Cash (BCH) has emerged as the top-performing Layer-1 blockchain asset of the year, with a nearly 40% increase in value. This performance surpasses other major networks such as BNB, Hyperliquid, Tron, and XRP, which have seen only modest gains. Analyst Crypto Koryo attributes BCH's success to favorable supply dynamics, including no token unlocks or venture-capital overhang, which reduces sell-side pressure. The entire supply of BCH is circulating, contributing to its strong market performance. In related news, Bitcoin is expected to experience a brief dip to around $87,000 before potentially rebounding to $100,000, according to trader Michaël van de Poppe. He suggests that macroeconomic factors, such as reduced quantitative tightening and potential rate cuts, could support this bullish scenario. However, he warns that failing to maintain key support levels could lead to further declines.
