According to FinanceFeeds, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) has issued a warning that scammers are defrauding retail investors via messaging apps such as WhatsApp and fake cryptocurrency trading platforms. Scammers typically begin by posting investment advice on social media to lure users into messaging groups disguised as reputable financial professionals or trading communities, then encourage them to deposit funds into fraudulent platforms. These platforms simulate profits using fabricated trading data; when users attempt to withdraw funds, they are charged additional “unlocking fees,” and all money flows directly into the scammers’ accounts. Moreover, scammers are targeting investors who have already suffered losses by promoting fake “funds recovery services” — a form of secondary fraud. According to MoneySmart survey data, 23% of Australians aged 18–28 hold crypto assets; 72% of Generation Z respondents have seen crypto-related advertisements on social media; and 41% have been directly solicited to invest in cryptocurrencies—indicating significantly elevated risk exposure among younger demographics. ASIC advises investors to avoid trusting investment advice from social media and recommends verifying a platform’s regulatory compliance through the AUSTRAC Register of Digital Currency Exchange Providers.

Bybit’s latest options weekly report states that BTC rebounded after finding support at the dense $74,000 level last week and is now consolidating near $77,000. A key macro turning point: Nomura has withdrawn its rate-cut expectations, and the CME FedWatch tool shows the probability of a rate hike rising to 60%, completely breaking the “ceasefire → rate cuts → BTC rally” logic chain. Barclays, Goldman Sachs, ING, and JPMorgan all confirm that the rise in long-end yields is driven by three structural factors—debt expansion, AI-related investment, and an increase in the neutral interest rate—unrelated to geopolitical tensions. Bullish catalysts continue to accumulate (SpaceX holding 18,712 BTC, the ARMA reserve proposal, and the CLARITY Act), yet price remains unmoved. DVOL has fallen to ~35%, a historical extreme; no strategy is recommended for now—await DVOL’s recovery above 45% before entering.

Odaily reports: Bitget has announced the launch of Reality, a licensed financial protocol focused on the tokenization of Real World Assets (RWA). The issued tokenized stocks (rTokens) are strictly pegged 1:1 to the underlying US stocks, with assets custodied at a US securities broker-dealer that is FINRA-registered and SIPC-protected. Real-time proof of reserves is provided through third-party independent audits. By directly accessing liquidity pools from Nasdaq, NYSE, and other US stock exchanges, Reality's stock tokens can achieve liquidity on par with traditional brokerages. Meanwhile, stock dividends will be distributed 1:1 to user accounts in token form, cash dividends will be automatically converted into USDT for distribution, and stock splits and reverse splits will be mapped to on-chain tokens in real-time, offering an experience highly consistent with holding US stocks.Furthermore, the US stock tokens launched by Reality are deeply integrated with the Bitget ecosystem. They can be used, for example, as margin for unified accounts and are compatible with core product lines such as grid trading, copy trading systems, and staking/lending.Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget, previously proposed the "10% Vision": Currently, tokenized stocks represent only 0.1% of the $125 trillion global stock market. She predicts this proportion will rise to nearly 10% by 2030. Reality is built on this trend. In its initial phase, it will focus on US stocks, and will later expand asset classes, driving the extension of Bitget's UEX strategy into a broader access layer for global financial assets.

Odaily Planet Daily reports that BIT's chart of the day indicates that the key to market analysis often lies in identifying the core factors driving asset price movements and observing when these factors begin to change.For Bitcoin, the sustained upward trend over the past period has largely depended on the shifting dynamic between institutional demand and market supply. Over the past year, spot Bitcoin ETFs and Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) have been important sources of this demand.When ETF inflows accelerate and Strategy continues to increase its Bitcoin holdings, Bitcoin prices typically rise. Currently, the combined net purchases of ETFs and Strategy have fallen to just $870 million, primarily due to significant capital outflows from ETFs, which have shifted from net buying to net selling.Until ETF inflows stabilize and recover, Bitcoin may continue to oscillate and consolidate in the short term.
