Odaily Planet Daily reports that the crypto community is divided on the short-term trend of Bitcoin. Some analysts warn that the price may be heading for new lows, while some traders are already targeting $84,000. Keith Alan, co-founder of Material Indicators, stated that the bottom for BTC has not yet been reached, and the primary task now is capital preservation. Alan pointed out that the $69,000 high in 2021 is crucial in the current easing rally. Although $60,000 was yesterday's support, there is a high probability that it will fall to a lower level before the bull market returns. 2. Rekt Capital believes that historical trends suggest BTC still has room to fall. After reaching the peak of the bull market in the fourth quarter of the year following the halving, BTC often experiences a easing rally of several months before breaking below the bottom of the macro triangle and entering an accelerated decline phase. The current period is the fourth consecutive cycle conforming to this historical tendency. 3. Analyst Michaël van de Poppe offers a different view, stating that he expects the market price to rebound to the CME gap, and the upward trend is expected to continue to above $75,000 next week. 4. JAN3 CEO Samson Mow stated that BTC will soon fill the $84,000 gap in CME futures, and the ability of large corporations to purchase BTC as a reserve asset is also worth noting. (Cointelegraph)

In the past hour, total liquidations across the network reached $12.78 million, with $1.29 million from long positions, with $11.50 million from short positions. BTC liquidation $4.81 million, ETH liquidation $3.14 million.

According to Odaily Planet Daily, Trump Mobile, a subsidiary of US President Donald Trump's vast business empire, announced the "Trump T1" phone back in June of last year, and by then, hopes of its release had almost been given up. However, a new report suggests that it will eventually meet consumers. According to an interview with US tech media The Verge, company executives stated that there are still some planned changes to the phone, such as removing the T1 logo. The American flag and gold color scheme on the back cover will be retained. The screen and camera specifications will also be upgraded. Company executives stated that to reflect the "quality improvement," the price will increase. Some customers who have already paid a $100 deposit will still have to pay a final payment of $499, while later buyers will bear a higher price, but "it will not exceed $1,000." The company also retracted its previous statement that the phone would be manufactured in the United States, now stating that the "final assembly" of the phone will be completed in the United States, while most manufacturing processes will be carried out elsewhere, but no specific locations were disclosed.
