**January 27: Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates, shared a lengthy, in-depth analysis on social media, warning the U.S. is currently in the fifth stage of his "long-term debt cycle" theory—on the cusp of an order breakdown—with multiple indicators pointing to a potential slide into the sixth stage (civil war and order collapse).** His key judgment factors include: - **Fiscal Deterioration & Conflict**: High government deficits, ballooning debt, and record-high wealth and values gaps form a "classic deadly combination." - **Populism & Polarization**: Growing political polarization, muted moderate voices, media as a partisan tool, and an erosion of truth in the public sphere. - **Escalating Violence**: The recent death of a Minneapolis protester and tensions between federal and state governments are clear signs of a shift toward the sixth stage. - **Systemic Dysfunction**: Legal and political systems increasingly weaponized in conflicts, with rules giving way to "win

On January 27th, per GMGN monitoring (link: https://gmgn.ai/bsc/token/i_m4TE56o8_0x9c573c93c4a25dac626fe09d6ae41d184d8f7777), BSC meme coin Dividend Doge briefly surged to a $10 million market cap before pulling back to ~$7.6 million. It’s currently trading at $0.0076 with a roughly 55% 24-hour price gain. Much of the market buzz stems from two drivers: prior FOMO around meme coin GOUT (which briefly jumped 1,000x) and Dividend Doge’s new auto-WBNB dividend feature. GOUT previously saw a brief 1,000x surge, hitting a $140 million market cap at one point. It also took first place in the BNB Chain Meme Trading Contest back in December 2024—but now its market cap is under $2 million, with prices near zero. Dividend Doge is a rework from the GOUT team on the Flap platform, adding a dividend feature to its mechanics. The team is likely aiming to replicate GOUT’s past market success.
