According to ChainCatcher, as reported by CoinDesk, two wallets associated with Casascius physical bitcoins have recently transferred a total of 2,000 bitcoins, worth approximately $180 million, after being dormant for over ten years.

Casascius physical coins were created by Utah entrepreneur Mike Caldwell in 2011 as physical collectibles containing embedded private keys, with denominations ranging from 1 to 1,000 BTC. Each coin comes with a tamper-evident holographic seal to protect the private key underneath. Due to the US Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) flagging Caldwell as an unlice

a16z points out in a recent article that Bitcoin faces issues with governance efficiency and proactive migration, making it urgent to shift to quantum-resistant digital signatures. If the community cannot reach consensus, a hard fork may occur. In addition, holders must proactively migrate their assets, and millions of bitcoins vulnerable to quantum attacks could lose protection as a result.

On-chain data analyst Murphy pointed out that the short-term Behavior Weighted Trend Signal (BWTS) can identify selling pressure and trend capitulation behavior. A divergence between BWTS and BTC price often signals panic selling has been cleared, indicating a potential rebound. Currently, the BWTS pattern is similar to that after the Luna crash in 2022, suggesting that rebound conditions still exist.

ChainCatcher 消息，据官方公告，BTC 财库公司 Stacking Sats Inc 披露当前持有 25.69 枚 BTC。

Bitcoin has continued to face pressure during its month-long downtrend and has once again failed to break through a key trendline. The lack of clear bullish signals in the macro market keeps Bitcoin's short-term outlook uncertain. However, on-chain data shows that investors have begun to accelerate accumulation at lower price levels. According to Glassnode data, over the past week, more than 23,385 BTC (worth over $2.15 billion) have been withdrawn from exchanges, driving exchange reserves down to their lowest level since January 2021. Exchange outflows typically indicate an increase in long-term holding intentions and a reduction in selling pressure, which helps support a potential rebound.

Woori Bank recently added a Bitcoin (BTC) price display to its main trading floor in Seoul, presenting this crypto asset alongside core financial indicators such as the KRW-USD exchange rate, government bond yields, and stock market indices. This makes it the first commercial bank in South Korea to integrate cryptocurrency market data into a frontline trading environment. Bank officials stated that Bitcoin now serves as an important “market sentiment indicator.” As digital assets gain greater influence in global financial markets, including them in traders’ daily monitoring helps provide a more comprehensive assessment of risk appetite and cross-market linkages. This move also reflects the accelerated advancement of digital asset infrastructure within South Korea’s banking system.

In the past two weeks, Ethereum (ETH) has strongly outperformed Bitcoin (BTC), with both capital flows and price structure indicating that market sentiment is clearly shifting towards ETH. The latest data shows that spot Ethereum ETFs recorded a net inflow of $360 million during the same period, while Bitcoin ETFs saw only $120 million—a threefold difference that highlights investors’ growing preference for the Ethereum ecosystem. In terms of price performance, ETH recently broke through the key resistance level of $3,200, completing a daily structure reversal, which means the trend has entered a new upward phase. Meanwhile, BTC still needs to break above $96,000 to confirm a breakout, giving ETH a structural advantage in terms of trend.

Matrixport's latest report shows that the current crypto market is in a "position vacuum" state, with ETH and BTC positions falling to low levels. Analysts point out that the light position pattern may drive prices upward, and ETH futures open interest has increased significantly, but the market response remains conservative. The future performance of Ethereum needs to be observed.

The cryptocurrency market is experiencing a major event today—over $4 billion in options are set to expire, involving major assets such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple (XRP), and Solana (SOL). Traders generally expect another round of significant short-term volatility in the market, and before next week’s Federal Reserve FOMC interest rate decision, the total crypto market cap may fall below $3 trillion again. In the past 24 hours, there have been $270 million in liquidations in the crypto market. Coupled with rising US Treasury yields, Japanese bonds, and gold prices, Bitcoin and major assets have come under downward pressure. Although BTC, ETH, XRP, and SOL saw a brief rebound during today’s session, the overall technical structure remains weak.

BlockBeats News, December 5 — The US will release September PCE inflation data tonight. As the Fed’s most closely watched price indicator, this result will directly impact the December interest rate decision. Currently, the probability of a 25 basis point rate cut remains at 87%. The market expects the core PCE annual growth rate to be around 2.8%, slightly above the target but continuing a cooling trend. If the data comes in below expectations, it will strengthen the market narrative of a “soft landing” and the formation of an easing cycle. On the macro level, yesterday’s weaker ADP employment data has made the market even more sensitive to this inflation result. Meeting or coming in below expectations will put pressure on the dollar and support risk assets; if above expectations, sticky inflation may push up US Treasury yields, weaken rate-cut expectations, and trigger short-term avoidance of high-volatility assets. Overall sentiment remains cautious, with liquidity waiting for the event before repositioning. The crypto market continues its choppy trend, BTC

BlockBeats News, December 4, according to The Block, BRN Research analysts stated that despite limited spot momentum, Bitcoin's fundamental structure is steadily improving. BRN Head of Research Timothy Misir pointed out that, according to data from CryptoQuant and Glassnode, exchange balances have dropped to about 1.8 million BTC, the lowest level since 2017. Bitcoin’s realized market capitalization (monthly growth) remains positive, indicating that even as the overall market trades within a consolidation range, new capital continues to flow into BTC. Misir stated: "The market opened steadily and strongly, accumulation buying continues, exchange supply is decreasing, and the price is stabilizing above the real market average. What is currently lacking is a breakthrough of 96,000
