PANews reported on January 12 that Matrixport's analysis in today's chart indicates that the new year has started relatively calmly, but market sentiment is gradually warming up. Notably, its proprietary "Greed and Fear Index" moving average has shown clear signs of bottoming out. Historically, such signals often appear when bitcoin is nearing a local bottom. Against this backdrop, the market is more likely to enter an upward correction, and the risk of continued decline has eased. However, it should be noted that this does not mean prices will quickly return to historical highs. With sentiment stabilizing, downside risks are more likely to remain within a controllable range. Looking back to late October, the institution had previously indicated in its "Matrix onTarget" weekly report that the possibility of a larger-scale correction was relatively high at that time. Entering 2026, the environment for unilateral long strategies may still not be favorable; whether one can maintain discipline and capture swings in a more tactical manner may become the key to widening the gap in returns.

PANews reported on January 12 that, according to Hyperbot data, "Strategy Counterparty" opened new long positions in FARTCOIN (approximately $987,000) and XPL (approximately $100,000) about an hour ago, and has just fully closed its kPEPE long position. This whale still holds long positions in BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, and ZEC, with a total position size of about $315 million. Its total profit and loss over the past day is approximately +$5.78 million, and about +$14.5 million over the past month. This address opened positions in December last year, and the current account balance is about $36.25 million. After opening the account, it gradually increased short positions in mainstream coins such as BTC and ETH, and was once the largest BTC short on-chain, comparable to the listed company Strategy Counterparty that persistently buys BTC. Last week, it shifted from bearish to bullish.

BlockBeats News, January 12, according to Hyperinsight monitoring, Strategy counter-traded, the former Hyperliquid BTC whale (0x94d37) closed a kPEPE long position at 13:42, making a profit of $9,335, with the current account showing an unrealized gain of $4.6 million. During Strategy's continuous BTC accumulation, this address opened short positions in mainstream coins such as BTC and ETH, once holding a position of $120 million to become the largest BTC short on Hyperliquid.
