Summary: Tether has become a major gold buyer, adding about 27 tons in late 2025 as gold surged past $5,200, signaling a shift toward gold as a neutral reserve asset amid geopolitical and currency risk. The purchases back both USDT reserves and Tether Gold (XAUT), making Tether one of the largest institutional players linking physical gold with blockchain-based finance and reinforcing gold’s structural bull trend in 2026.

Tether has launched USA₮, a fully regulated, dollar-backed stablecoin issued through a U.S. federally chartered bank under the GENIUS Act, marking its official entry into the U.S. market. The move positions Tether to compete directly with USDC and Paxos for institutional adoption while keeping USDT focused on global markets.

River (RIVER) exploded nearly 1,200% in a month, briefly reaching a $1B+ market cap, driven by $12M in high-profile strategic backing, rapid listings on exchanges like HTX and Coinone, and rising attention around its cross-chain stablecoin infrastructure and satUSD growth. The rally was amplified by a very small circulating supply, but it also became heavily leverage-driven, with futures volume vastly outweighing spot activity, making the move fragile. A sharp pullback of over 25% has followed as profit-taking and liquidations set in, leaving RIVER still massively up on the month but now at a critical point where sustaining gains depends on real spot demand replacing speculative leverage.

Axie Infinity (AXS) has surged about 15% in 24 hours and nearly 200% over the past month, driven by a new bAXS tokenomics update that reduces sell pressure, a broader GameFi sector rebound, and a volume-confirmed technical breakout. Strong spot volume and rising futures open interest show renewed trader conviction, while holding above the $2.23–$2.50 support keeps momentum bullish, with a break above ~$2.70 putting $3.00 back in focus.

February 2026 is shaping up to be a high-volatility month for crypto, with an estimated $250–$500M+ in token unlocks across major projects including Hyperliquid (HYPE), Sui (SUI), Berachain (BERA), Ethena (ENA), Aptos (APT), and Linea (LINEA). Several of these releases represent meaningful portions of circulating supply—most notably Berachain’s ~59% unlock—which historically increases the risk of 10–25% short-term price swings, especially during early-Q1’s thinner liquidity. While unlocks often introduce temporary sell pressure, their actual impact will depend on recipient behavior (team vs. ecosystem), market depth, and broader risk sentiment. For traders and investors, February’s dense unlock calendar makes careful positioning, on-chain flow tracking, and disciplined risk management essential as these events are likely to drive both volatility and sector rotation.

Gold and silver are consolidating near record highs after powerful rallies, but strong institutional demand, central bank buying, and tight supply conditions continue to support the broader bullish trend. Gold holding above $5,000 and silver defending the $107 area suggest healthy digestion of gains rather than a market top, with higher price targets still in focus as long as key supports remain intact.

Jupiter (JUP) is set to unlock 53.47 million tokens worth about $10.7 million on January 28, just two days before the final “Jupuary” airdrop snapshot. While the unlock adds short-term supply, its impact may be muted by strong incentives to hold and stake JUP ahead of the January 30 snapshot, alongside growing fundamentals from Coinbase integration, tokenized stock partnerships, and rising protocol fees.
