📊 US Unemployment Claims: Strong Labor Market Without Surprises
New US unemployment claims data came in better than expected — 198K versus a forecast of 215K.
📌 What does this really mean?
🔹 The labor market remains resilient
🔹 No signs of sharp economic slowdown
🔹 Immediate recession risks are lower
For the Federal Reserve, this is a signal:
proceed cautiously and avoid rushing decisions.
📌 How are markets interpreting this?
• Less fear of a "hard landing";
• More room for risk-taking;
• But no direct signal of "rates coming down soon".
👉 Therefore, the impact on Bitcoin and risk assets is indirect, driven by overall sentiment rather than immediate Fed policy.
Conclusion:
This is a stable macro backdrop, not a trigger.
Markets are looking at a series of data points, not just one release.

Crypto extinction: 13.4 million tokens didn't survive the purge. And that's okay
☠️ The CoinGecko chart looks harsh: over 13.4 million crypto tokens have died since 2021, with 2025 becoming the year of mass extinction. But this is not a catastrophe for the industry. It's its purification.
1️⃣ The scale of what has happened
Facts without emotions:
2021 — ~2,500 dead projects
2022–2023 — hundreds of thousands

🇺🇦 Why access to Polymarket was restricted in Ukraine — without myths
Officially, access to the Polymarket website has been restricted in Ukraine.
This has triggered many loud reactions, but it's worth examining the reasons.
📌 Key point:
Polymarket was classified as a betting platform, not as a neutral Web3 service.
🔹 The regulator's position is straightforward:
• Its activities resemble gambling;
• No state license exists;
• Therefore, providers must restrict access.
🔹 Important:
• This is not a ban on cryptocurrencies;
• This is not criminal prosecution of users;
• This is a technical regulatory decision within the scope of existing legislation.
Polymarket received special attention due to the large number of bets related to Ukraine, making the issue politically and ethically sensitive.
📌 What does this really show?
Web3 platforms are facing not "hostility from the state", but the challenge of classification:
Is it a financial instrument, a prediction market, or a gambling game?
Until answers differ across countries,
regulatory conflicts will continue to occur.

⚠️ Why Web3 projects most often "break" not technically, but legally
In crypto, we tend to think the biggest risks are:
- hacks,
- smart contract bugs,
- exploits.
But in reality, the most common "fatal bug" is legal.
The Polymarket case in Ukraine is exactly about this:
The platform is large and technologically advanced,
but locally it was classified as unlicensed gambling,
resulting in access restrictions imposed by providers.
An additional trigger was sensitive markets and bets related to the war, which were particularly sensitive in Ukraine: media reported significant volumes of such bets on the platform, amplifying public and political pressure.
📌 Lesson for any Web3 product:
code may work perfectly,
but if regulators say "this is betting/derivatives without a license" — access can be cut off within a day.
👉 Conclusion:
In Web3, it's important to ask not just "how does this work?", but also:
"how will this be classified in my country?"

Why open interest is more important than price — and what it tells us about the market
Price shows where the market was.
Open Interest shows how it thinks.
And in 2025, OI became the key to understanding what is happening with alts.
1️⃣ What is Open Interest in simple terms
Open Interest is the number of open futures contracts that have not yet been closed.
price = result of transactions;
OI = level of risk and capital involvement.

🎲 Prediction markets ≠ casinos? Where is the line from a regulatory perspective
After the news about restrictions on access to Polymarket in Ukraine, many people are asking:
Is this a "Web3 forecasting tool" or "gambling"?
The truth is that for regulators, the line is often very simple:
🔹 If you're betting money on the outcome of an event — it's a bet.
It doesn't matter if you call it a "contract," "prediction market," or "token."
That's exactly why Polymarket was included in Ukraine's list of resources operating without a license, and providers were required to restrict access. 
📌 Important nuance:
Regulators assess not the "technology," but the economic substance:
• Is there a risk of losing money?
• Is there a gambling element?
• Are there signs of organizing gambling activities without permission?
👉 Conclusion:
A prediction market may appear as "analytics."
But legally, it's often treated as betting, if there's no special regime/license.
Subscribe if you want more such analyses without the hype — here we separate "Web3 romance" from legal reality.

🧠 How the crypto market became a macro market: alts, liquidity, and the new behavior of capital
Data from Bloomberg and Wintermute confirms what was considered 'speculation' just a year ago: the crypto market is no longer an autonomous casino. In 2025, it has fully become a macro-sensitive financial market, where liquidity, risk, and exposure behave just like in traditional assets.

🧠 How Your Reaction to the Market Changes Over Time
Each market cycle is strangely similar to the previous one.
Not because the market "moves in circles," but because the same types of participants keep going through it.
Beginners are coming for the first time.
They follow a standard path:
euphoria → fear → hope → panic → disappointment.
It is precisely these emotions that make up the psychology of the masses.

The End of Privacy Coins in the Regulated World: How the Crypto Market Is Finally Dividing into Two Camps
The DIFC regulator's decision in Dubai to prohibit trading 🕶️ privacy-tokens on regulated exchanges appears to be another "blow to crypto." But in reality, it's not an attack on the industry, but rather the final confirmation of a process that has been ongoing for years: the crypto market is finally splitting into institutional and off-system segments.

💸 Why is crypto falling even with the world flooded in liquidity?
Social media is buzzing with the “logical” question: if the Fed, U.S. Treasury, and China are pumping billions into the economy, why isn’t crypto booming?
The answer: today’s liquidity isn’t 2020’s liquidity. Money doesn’t automatically chase risk anymore.
1️⃣ Liquidity ≠ crypto capital
Fed buys T-Bills, Treasury releases funds, China stimulates banks.
But much of this liquidity:
• Stays in banks
• Covers losses, credit, and operations
• Doesn’t flow into BTC or ETH
So “money poured in” ≠ “capital flooded crypto.”
2️⃣ Investors focus on the future
Crypto reacts to expectations, not immediate inflows.
Global economic risks
Central bank volatility
Strong USD
Cool appetite for high-risk assets
The market now behaves professionally — assessing probabilities, not chasing hype.
3️⃣ Structural market change
Crypto is no longer a “scream in the dark.” It’s:
Part of institutional portfolios
Risk- and macro-aware
Focused on quality over narrative
Meanwhile:
High leverage
Periodic liquidations
Weak altcoins
Cautious big players
“Pour money → prices soar” is over.
4️⃣ Why this is healthy
Market maturity is normal.
Liquidity now stabilizes, not stimulates.
Crypto rewards contextual understanding, not blind optimism.
💡 Takeaway from @MoonMan567:
Not every liquidity wave fuels crypto. The new game favors those who read reality, not chase magic.

ISM Services 52.6: why strong statistics from the US are once again putting pressure on the cryptocurrency market
The US Services Business Activity Index (ISM Services PMI) came in at 52.6 compared to the previous 52.4 and a consensus forecast of around 52.0–52.1.
That is, we again see the US economy that is not rushing to 'break', despite the tight monetary policy.
What does 52.6 mean for ISM Services?
Above 50 — the services sector is expanding, not contracting.

What is yen carry trade and why has it fueled BTC, NASDAQ, and global markets for years?
Yen carry trade: an invisible mechanism that has financed risk around the world for over 30 years.
For decades, there has been an almost free resource in global finance — the Japanese yen.
Zero interest rates, excess liquidity, and banks' willingness to lend at minimal rates have made it ideal fuel for speculation, investment, and global risk.

The Fed removes barriers for banks in crypto: what has really changed and why it matters
Regulatory shift in the US: banks are returning to the crypto ecosystem
The US Federal Reserve has taken a step that the market has been discussing for more than a year: it has canceled the 2023 policy that effectively blocked banks from participating in crypto and stablecoin activities.
This is not loud legalization and not a 'green traffic light without rules', but it is a clear signal — the crypto industry is once again integrating into the US banking system.

The Fed lowers the rate to 3.75%: why the new decision may change the trajectory of the crypto market
The Fed lowered the rate by 25 basis points to 3.75%, fully within the forecast.
But the main influence on the markets is not the numbers, but the comments: moderate economic growth, cooling labor market, slowing consumer spending... and at the same time - preserving inflation risks.
For the crypto market, this is a complex but interesting signal: monetary conditions are becoming softer, but the market must carefully monitor the pace of inflation decline.

🌐 Web3 Dictionary: What is SocialFi?
If you spend a lot of time on social networks, you have definitely noticed how Web3 is gradually changing the game. Today, we will break down the term that stands at the intersection of your communication and financial freedom — SocialFi.
SocialFi (Social Finance) is a concept that combines the principles of social networks with decentralized finance (DeFi). The main goal of this direction is to return power, control over data, and profit from content from the hands of large corporations (such as Meta or X) directly to users and creators.

Markets are closely monitoring this process, as the yen has been the foundation of global leverage for years — from stocks and bonds to cryptocurrencies.
