Zach Pandl stated that Bitcoin has increased by more than 20% from ~63,000 USD to ~76,000 USD, slightly surpassing the short-term breakeven price (~74,000 USD), helping most investors who have held for 1–3 months to break even. If the price continues to rise, this group will start to be profitable — an early signal of a bull market. However, BTC is still below the October peak; the 65,000–70,000 USD range could be a relatively stable short-term bottom.$BTC $ETH

The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has just proposed new, more friendly capital guidelines for cryptocurrency assets on public blockchains, aiming to replace the current stringent Basel regulations. Instead of defaulting to classify public chain assets in the high-risk category (Group 2), MAS allows them to be classified in Group 1 with a lower risk weight if they meet certain safety standards. To control risk, MAS stipulates: • The holding limit for Group 1 assets is no more than 2% of the bank's Tier 1 capital. • The issuance size (if it constitutes a liability) does not exceed 5% of Tier 1 capital. This move aims to ensure technology neutrality and encourage banks in Singapore to engage more deeply in the digital asset market.$BTC $ETH
