Gate Options Daily Market Update.

On January 21, the crypto market continued to pull back and consolidate, with risk appetite cooling notably. BTC and ETH came under simultaneous pressure: BTC fell back to around USD 89,000 after breaking below its short-term moving average structure, while ETH saw a relatively larger decline and remains in a weak recovery phase, with major assets dragging on the overall index. On the thematic side, mid- and small-cap tokens such as AIA, MBG, and ARC moved against the trend, supported by narratives around AI agents, on-chain integration of traditional finance, and developer tools, highlighting clear structural divergence. From a structural perspective, Ethereum staking demand continued to improve, with unstaking pressure fading and the staked ratio approaching 30%; meanwhile, Solana’s staking ratio climbed to a record high of 68.8%, indicating that parts of the public-chain ecosystem are still attracting long-term capital. However, whether the broader market can stabilize will still depend on sentiment recove

Last week, BTC moved into a high-level consolidation phase after the previous sharp rally, but the market structure has not flipped bearish. ETH showed greater resilience than BTC, holding up better during pullbacks. On-chain flows clearly reflect a "trading-scenario-first" trend. Capital is rotating out of low-velocity, general settlement layers and into networks with higher trading efficiency and stronger support for active strategies. Perp DEXs and prediction markets have become the main liquidity magnets in this cycle. Both Hyperliquid and Polygon PoS recorded net inflows of over $100 million. Meme activity across the Solana ecosystem is also picking up again. Bags App has risen quickly on the back of its "donation-driven" mechanic, amplifying FOMO and viral growth dynamics.

ROSE surged 34.35% over the past 24 hours, driven by accelerating capital inflows into the high-beta “privacy + AI” narrative. ARPA rose more than 51%, with the rally largely reflecting shifts in market sentiment as 24-hour trading volume expanded sharply to USD 320 million. Alpha Edge Media, a subsidiary of Aether Holdings, has acquired the institutional-grade crypto communications and media platform Coinstack.

Among notable movers, DUSK surged on catalysts including its mainnet launch, RWA partnerships, and expectations of institutional adoption; NAM experienced sharp swings amid thin liquidity and a technical breakout; and FRAX rallied on its rebranding and broader ecosystem expansion. In today’s highlights, Ethereum’s staking entry queue climbed to its highest level since August 2023 while the exit queue fell to zero; Vitalik Buterin and Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko reignited debate over whether protocols should “ossify” or keep evolving, underscoring two divergent paths between long-term stability and continuous iteration; and as Vibe Coding gains momentum, supply-chain style risks tied to IDE auto-execution settings have become a growing focus for developers.

Gate listed 447 new spot assets in 2025, and their post-listing performance showed clear market feedback across several key time points: about 54.8% of assets were up 24 hours after listing, and the average 24-hour gain among the winners was roughly 635%. In the early window, primary listings were more likely to post higher median returns (24-hour median: 12.56%, or 8.03% after trimming outliers), well above non-primary listings (24-hour median: 1.18%, or 0.86% after trimming). Gate-exclusive listings showed an even more concentrated early response: nearly 80% were up within the first 30 minutes, with a median gain of about 81%.

This paper examines *Vibe Coding, a* programming practice driven by natural language intent and characterized by rapid trial-and-error and outcome-oriented validation and systematically analyzes its efficiency gains and security risks in blockchain application development. Empirical evidence based on multi-source data shows that development practices associated with Vibe Coding can significantly shorten development cycles, increase output per unit of labor, and to some extent alleviate the high entry barriers and long development timelines typical of blockchain projects, thereby confirming the practical efficiency benefits of AI-driven development.
