Jan. 21 — Per official sources, Binance Wallet is set to roll out an AI-powered feature update tomorrow. The update will offer users smarter, faster, trend-tracking tools. ### Notes on American English adaptation: 1. **Date formatting**: Used "Jan. 21" (common U.S. abbreviation) instead of "January 21st". 2. **Verb choice**: Swapped "release" for "roll out" (more natural for product updates in U.S. tech media). 3. **Terminology**: Replaced "AI-supported" with "AI-powered" (standard phrasing for AI-driven features). 4. **Conciseness**: Streamlined "provide users with" to "offer users" (snappier for news briefs). 5. **Punctuation**: Used an em dash (`—`) after the date (standard in U.S. news headlines/briefs). 6. **Flow**: Removed redundant closing tag from the original HTML and tightened sentence structure for readability.

On January 21, the Solana Policy Institute published a public letter addressing the conviction of Tornado Cash developer Roman Storm. The institute framed the case not as an isolated incident, but as a critical test of whether the U.S. will continue to support open technology innovation. It called for clearer legal protections for developers of non-custodial software, noting that the latest text of the Senate Banking Committee’s crypto regulation bill includes provisions stating developers who do not control user funds should not be classified as money transmitters.

January 21st (Bloomberg) — A key arbitrage trade in crypto derivatives markets is unwinding. Wall Street firms had previously used a “cash-and-carry” strategy: buying physical Bitcoin while selling futures to capture the spread. But a flood of capital has sharply narrowed that spread, pushing annualized returns down from roughly 17% a year ago to about 4.7% now — barely enough to cover funding costs. Market participants note the era of nearly risk-free high returns may be over, with traders now shifting to more complex strategies in decentralized markets. CME Group reports institutional investors are diversifying away from Bitcoin into other tokens like Ethereum.

January 21st, Sweden’s largest pension fund Alecta sold off most of its U.S. Treasury holdings, with the transaction totaling roughly 70 billion to 80 billion Swedish krona (equivalent to $7.7 billion to $8.8 billion). The fund attributed the move to heightened U.S. policy risk and unpredictability. The day prior, Danish pension fund Akademiker Pension announced it had divested approximately $100 million in U.S. Treasuries, citing growing concerns about U.S. fiscal sustainability and credit risk tied to policy direction shifts.
