BlockBeats News, February 6th, Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan said that he visited several financial advisors this week, and overall everyone is still bullish on the market. Those who have not yet invested see this dip as a buying opportunity, while those who bought in earlier plan to continue holding. If this dip has taught us anything, it is that ETF investors are not the market drivers; cryptocurrency native investors still dominate the market. Over the past year, we have spent too much time thinking about the marginal buyer (ETF investors) and ignored the HODLer (cryptocurrency native investors).

According to a report by Bijie Network: The well-known XRP-supporting lawyer John E. Deaton has accused major banks, particularly JPMorgan and its CEO Jamie Dimon, of suppressing the price of bitcoin by leveraging the "paper market" and futures contracts, drawing parallels to past manipulations in the precious metals market. He believes this has caused bitcoin's price to remain stagnant despite favorable macroeconomic conditions and a crypto-friendly political environment, citing similar strategies previously used in the silver market. Deaton described this as a structural shift and a coordinated action by traditional finance, linking it to policy battles in Washington. Previously, Galaxy Digital CEO Mike Novogratz also questioned bitcoin's recent price movements. These allegations come at a time when JPMorgan has previously faced hefty fines for manipulating precious metals futures.

According to a report by Bijie Network: Bijie Network reported that, according to a tweet from Bitcoin Treasuries: The Bitcoin Lightning Network has completed a large transaction of $1 million, setting a new record for transaction size, which is ten times higher than the previous record of approximately $100,000.
