The quietness in the Bitcoin market is making some traders uneasy, with price consolidation shaking confidence and fuelling fear among retail investors—many of whom are pulling back, expecting a downturn—but some experts view this calm as a bullish signal. Blockchain analytics firm Santiment said on Wednesday that opinions are currently split across social media. Half of the traders think Bitcoin will rise, while the other half believe it will fall. Still, slightly more people are feeling negative than positive. According to Santiment, there are now 1.03 bearish comments for every bullish one. This is the lowest the mood has been since April 6, when traders were worried about global tariffs. Even though retail sentiment is falling, Santiment noted that markets often move in the opposite direction of the crowd. Markets historically move the opposite direction of retail’s expectations. A prime example was the optimal buy time during the early April fear from other traders. Meanwhile, the Bitcoin Fear and Greed Index has dropped to 54, signalling a neutral market mood. Just a month ago, it stood at 70, reflecting strong optimism. The decline shows a shift in sentiment, with confidence fading and no clear direction in sight. Despite the dip in sentiment, Bitcoin’s price has remained firm above the key $100,000 mark, though data from Glassnode shows that on-chain activity isn’t keeping pace —signalling a potential shift in how, and by whom, Bitcoin is being used. What the Bitcoin Market Is Telling Us: While the network becomes quieter, the split in behavior between retail and institutional players is becoming more obvious. Santiment reported that over the past 10 days, the number of wallets holding 10 or more Bitcoin rose by 231—a 0.15% increase. In contrast, wallets with balances between 0.001 and 10 Bitcoin fell by 37,465, reflecting the same percentage change in the opposite direction. This pattern suggests that while small investors are backing out, big holders are buying in. Santiment noted that this type of behavior has often led to a market recovery. When large wallets accumulate as retail loses confidence, this is historically the right combination for bullish momentum to inevitably return to crypto markets. Ethereum is showing a similar trend. According to Lookonchain, a large investor, identified as wallet 0x9992, borrowed $10 million in USDT from lending platform Aave. The funds were used to buy 3,983 ETH at a price of $2,510.64 each. This is another sign that major players are still interested in crypto. Santiment added that there are now 6,392 wallets holding between 1,000 and 100,000 ETH. In the last month alone, these wallets have added a net total of 1.49 million ETH — a sign of confidence in Ethereum’s growing network and whale accumulation trends . That’s a 3.72% increase in their holdings. These large Ethereum wallets now control 26.98% of the total supply. This shift in behavior shows a growing gap between everyday traders and large investors. While smaller holders are selling and taking profits, institutional players are treating the current market as a buying opportunity. They seem to be stepping in while prices are stable and sentiment remains uncertain. If past patterns hold true, this quiet period—with whales accumulating and retail traders stepping away —could be setting the stage for the next move up.

The story unfolds under tension, but against the current. While bombs shake the Middle East, another front is aflame: the Internet. A digital earthquake has just exposed 16 billion identification data, according to Cybernews. Among them, access to Apple, Google, Facebook… Nothing discreet. Passwords, cookies, full sessions, laid bare. This is no longer a breach, it is a collapse. The era of stealthy cracks is over. The age of mass digital plundering has arrived. There have been hacks that shook fintech, like Bybit’s $1.4 billion evaporated . But what’s brewing in the shadows of recent revelations might make this hemorrhage look like a mere scratch. According to Cybernews , 30 data sets have been identified, each containing up to 3.5 billion credentials. For comparison, that represents two credentials per human being on Earth. Researchers talk about leaks from malware, notably infostealers, capable of sucking up everything you type, click, or save. Each line of these databases contains a URL, a username, a password. This opens the door to Apple, Facebook, Google, GitHub, government portals. The hackers did not break directly into these giants. But the harvested credentials allow entry quietly, bypassing walls through the most ordinary accesses: your already open sessions. As Mario Nawfal explains: This is not just a leak. It’s a roadmap for mass exploitation. And the damages are not over. New databases emerge every week. The threat is active. Alive. And it learns. What makes this leak particularly dangerous is the technology used to assemble the data. Cybernews researchers found the databases temporarily hosted on unsecured storages, like Elasticsearch or cloud objects. No sophisticated hack here: just negligence, an organizational flaw. One of the data sets was linked to Telegram, another to Russia. One of them contained 455 million credentials. Cookies and authentication tokens were also present. In short, some hackers can access your accounts even if you change your password. And not all services automatically reset cookies. Technology is a double-edged sword. It facilitates communication, exchange, innovation. But in the wrong hands, it becomes an accelerator of disasters. Experts talk about a new era in cyberattacks: moving away from Telegram groups to centralized bases ready to be exploited on a large scale. One of the most striking quotes from the investigation is this, signed Cybernews: This is not just a leak – it’s fresh, actionable intelligence at scale. A cold, clinical phrase. It sums up the whole logic of industrialized cybercrime. If the web giants tremble, so does the crypto community. Developers, traders, DApps all rely on secure access. And most use the same logins as everyone else: Google, Facebook, GitHub. In other words, the keys to Web3 have just been dropped in the street. Even security initiatives in blockchain, like decentralized authentication, struggle to compete against this massive attack. Grok’s reply to Satoshi Club’s tweet clearly references the scope of this leak: this breach affects Apple, Google, and GitHub alike. And by extension, the crypto universe. Here is what you need to remember: The consequences are systemic. The technology used to secure access becomes itself a vulnerability vector. It is a brutal challenge for the entire ecosystem. With 16 billion stolen data records, the Coinbase case, which involved nearly 70,000 victims last May, seems almost anecdotal. Yet it was enough to trigger a ransom demand and a loss of trust. So imagine what 16 billion digital entry points in the hands of bad actors can cause. Technology evolves fast. Cybercriminals do too. This time, the battle is fought silently… and in broad daylight.

Using the same Ecommerce analogy - @virtuals_io has the highest # of fleet of merchants selling their own goods, some good quality, some bad quality BUT the platform itself is the first to ship and the fastest to iterate, catering to buyer/seller demand - Bittensor represent a manufacturing hub w/ each subnet representing a factory (w/ different type of goods) e.g. shoes factory, clothes factory, pharmaceutical factory, electronics factory, etc. @CreatorBid as the ecommerce that help sellers access Bittensor subnet goods and distribute them to buyers via Creator Bid platform - Both @HoloworldAI & @elizaOS got good foundation products, "creator toolkits" that bring lots of value to users (creatives/devs) + both have vibrant group of community/potential buyers but have not launched their ecommerce platform strategy well Who'll win this ecommerce battle over the long run? I don't know... but what I do know is that there'll be multiple ecommerce platforms around serving different kinds of products to different kinds of buyers Just like how Amazon, ebay, Shopee, Lazada, Temu, Allegro, Zalando, Shein, and many more carve their own markets and stay relevant regardless of the competition Good thing about Crypto is, you now have the opportunity to invest in these ecommerce early
