Fellow Binancians,
Binance Futures will close all positions and conduct an automatic settlement on USDⓈ-M BIDUSDT, DMCUSDT, ZRCUSDT and TANSSIUSDT Perpetual Contracts at 2026-01-21 09:00 (UTC). The contracts will be delisted after the settlement is complete.Please Note:
Users are advised to close any open positions prior to the delisting time to avoid automatic settlement.Users are not allowed to open new positions for the aforementioned contract(s) starting from 2026-01-21 08:30 (UTC).During the final hour proceeding the scheduled settlement time of a futures contract, the Futures Insurance Fund will not be utilised to support the liquidation process in respect of that futures contract. Any such liquidation triggered during the final hour will be executed as a single Immediate or Cancel order (“IOCO”), which will be offloaded into the market in one attempt. If, following the execution of the IOCO, the assets remaining available in the user's account are sufficient to meet the required Maintenance Margin (after accounting for realized losses and any applicable Liquidation Clearance Fee), the liquidation will cease. If the IOCO fails to fully reduce the position to a level that satisfies the Margin Maintenance requirements, any unfilled portion of the position will be resolved through the Auto-Deleveraging (ADL) process. Users are strongly advised to actively monitor and manage open positions during the final hour, as this period may be subject to heightened volatility and reduced liquidity.In order to protect users and prevent potential risks in extremely volatile market conditions, Binance Futures may undertake additional protective measures toward the aforementioned contract(s) without further announcement, including but not limited to adjusting the maximum leverage value, position value, and maintenance margin in each margin tier, updating funding rates, such as the interest rate, premium and capped funding rate, changing the constituents of the price index, and using the Last Price Protected mechanism to update the Mark Price.There may be discrepancies between this original content in English and any translated versions.

According to Odaily, monitoring data from Farside Investors indicates that U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs experienced a net inflow of $1.416 billion this week.

According to Odaily, Eli5DeFi has expressed on the X platform that incentive-driven DeFi models are expected to vanish by 2026. The decline in user retention for DeFi protocols occurs when incentives end, as risk-adjusted returns revert to actual levels. The growth in total value locked (TVL) during the incentive phase often reflects subsidized participation rather than sustained demand or fee income.Eli5DeFi outlines three stages in the 'rented liquidity' model: the incentive phase attracts funds through high emissions compensating for risk; the normalization phase sees reduced incentives and real returns; and the exit phase involves funds recalculating costs and withdrawing as returns normalize. The collapse in retention rates is attributed to incentives temporarily masking structural weaknesses, including subsidized impermanent loss risks, marketing expenses rather than income, highly internalized demand, and high friction costs.Eli5DeFi believes that retention rates can only improve if the economic model remains effective after incentives normalize. Protocols must address impermanent loss and principal risk, anchor returns to real demand rather than token inflation, and expand ecosystems to increase revenue sources. Future DeFi should be evaluated based on sustainable income, capital efficiency, and risk-adjusted returns.

According to Odaily, data from Polymarket indicates that Kevin Warsh currently holds a 57% probability of being appointed as the Federal Reserve Chair. Meanwhile, Kevin Hassett and Christopher Waller each have a 15% chance, and Rick Rieder's probability remains unspecified.
