According to Odaily Planet Daily, a netizen unearthed an old tweet from Musk in 2021 on social media: "SpaceX will send a real Dogecoin to the real moon," and tagged Musk to ask, "When?" Musk replied, "Maybe next year."

Odaily Planet Daily reports that the US dollar weakened today after several days of rebound following Trump's nomination of Kevin Warsh as the next Federal Reserve Chairman. Michael Pfister, an analyst at Commerzbank, noted in a report that the nomination raised market expectations that the Fed would be led by a "hawkish" figure. While the nomination temporarily halted market sentiment towards a weaker dollar, he believes that "fundamental conditions have not fundamentally changed." Pfister emphasized that the dollar has still depreciated compared to the average G10 currency. (Jinshi)

Huoxun Finance reported on February 3rd that David Duong, Global Head of Investment Research at Coinbase, published an article pointing out that the prevailing narrative that "rising gold prices will drive up Bitcoin prices" is a flawed view. He argues that the recent plunge in gold prices following the announcement of the Federal Reserve Chair nominee proves that gold trading is more driven by momentum than by "currency devaluation," fundamentally undermining the narrative many have imposed on gold. This view is based on a quantitative analysis report from CoinbaseInstitutional. The report states that to verify the relationship, the research team did not simply choose a specific time lag to look for correlation, but conducted comprehensive statistical tests across multiple time windows ranging from one week to one year to explore whether there is a stable and exploitable correlation between the start of a gold bull market and the start of a Bitcoin bull market. The analysis results show that there is no consistent evidence that strong returns in gold will ultimately lead to strong returns in Bitcoin. The relationship between the two varies across different time windows, sometimes showing a positive correlation, sometimes a negative correlation, and most correlations lack statistical significance. Therefore, the analysis concludes that the view that "rising gold prices are a leading indicator of rising Bitcoin prices" is not supported by statistical data.

Huoxun Finance News, February 3rd - MagicBlock, the real-time engine for the Solana application, announced the economic model for its native token, $BLOCK. MagicBlock introduces "EphemeralRollups (ERs)" technology, a lightweight, high-speed Solana virtual machine instance that can instantly start and optimize on-chain computing performance. The total supply of $BLOCK is 10 billion, with 35% allocated to community users, 15% to node operators, 20% to investors, 18% to the team and advisors, and 12% to the ecosystem fund. Team tokens will be locked for 3 years and gradually unlocked based on ecosystem growth milestones. Since the launch of MagicNet in June 2025, MagicBlock has processed over 1 billion transactions and attracted 27,000 unique addresses. MagicBlock has announced a presale of its $BLOCK tokens on February 5th, offering two options: Option 1 is a first-come, first-served elastic curve model where tokens will be fully unlocked during the TGE (Token Generation Event); Option 2 is a fixed-price model (100 MFDV), where tokens will be locked for one year after the TGE, prioritizing long-term supporters. The presale will be divided into two phases: a 24-hour priority period for whitelisted addresses on February 5th, followed by 48 hours open to all. The TGE is expected to take place from the end of Q1 to the beginning of Q2 2026. Previously, MagicBlock reportedly completed a $7.5 million seed funding round, led by LightspeedFaction.
