With the U.S. Supreme Court rejecting President Trump's previous emergency tariff measures, Trump immediately announced the reactivation of a temporary tariff of up to 15% based on other trade laws, increasing trade uncertainty and putting pressure on risk appetite in the cryptocurrency market.Data from the options trading platform Deribit shows a significant increase in open contracts for put options on Bitcoin with strike prices of $58,000, $60,000, and $62,000, indicating that traders are hedging potential downside risks by buying put options. Put options are typically used to provide protection when prices fall. Market analysis suggests that the repeated imposition of tariff policies, combined with macroeconomic uncertainty, may continue to exert pressure on risk assets, including crypto assets.

The company currently has fewer than 30 employees.Li views the company's main competitors as mainstream AI models like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Grok.

According to the 10x Research report, Bitcoin's price has shown limited fluctuations recently, but the pricing in the derivatives market has begun to reflect potential significant market changes.The report points out several structural signals in the market: volatility is being bought rather than sold, option skew has shifted back towards downside protection, funding rates have decreased, futures open interest is showing divergence, and there is a continued net outflow from ETFs. The report believes that although the market appears stable at first glance, the funding positions and pricing structure indicate that the market is preparing for unexpected events. Bulls typically view the rebuilding of the U.S. Treasury general account, the end of quantitative tightening, and potential interest rate cuts as liquidity positives, but if the market structure lacks consistent support, macro expectations are unlikely to drive a sustained trend. 10x Research notes that merely having liquidity is not enough to create directional trends; it is still necessary to observe whether leverage levels, position structures, and trading flows are synchronized. This weekly report covers Bitcoin and Ethereum's derivatives positions, volatility trends, funding rates, ETF and stablecoin flows, options activity, as well as potential ranges and key catalysts for the next 1 to 2 weeks.

According to Jinshi reports, Bitcoin fell back after reaching a one-week high overnight, hitting $107,454, and is now down 0.5% to $105,011.

ChainCatcher news, in the face of the Trump administration's new round of tariff threats, the initial reaction of the bond market was to sell U.S. Treasuries, with the 10-year Treasury yield rebounding from an early low. However, the volatility was not significant. Clearly, investors generally expect that the aggressive proposal to impose a 50% tariff on EU imports will ultimately be significantly weakened in negotiations, just like the previous tariffs on China.John Madziire, a strategist at global asset management giant Vanguard, stated, "The market has calmed down now because this has happened before, and we know what happened later. It's like the story of 'The Boy Who Cried Wolf'; people are taking it less seriously." He added, "The government is not acting recklessly; they have their own plans, and there are limits to how far they can go."

ChainCatcher news, according to CoinDesk, market analyst Omkar Godbole stated that the Bitcoin market is exhibiting a unique "iceberg" phenomenon: while the surface market shows a seller-dominated trend, deep buying power is continuously accumulating. At the quote level (0%) and within the 1% depth range, trades dominated by market makers show significant selling pressure; however, in the deeper price range of 2% to 5%, the number of buy orders exceeds sell orders and continues to grow, indicating that off-exchange funds are positioning at lower price levels.Order Book Depth data shows that the market has the capacity to absorb large orders at stable prices. Currently, Bitcoin is quoted at $94,000, and the market is closely watching the upcoming U.S. non-farm payroll data for guidance on the trend of risk assets.
