Michael Saylor reiterates Bitcoin Tracker Update, Hinting at More BTC Purchase
Jan. 11: MicroStrategy founder Michael Saylor has once again shared information related to its Bitcoin tracker.
Historically, MicroStrategy has disclosed its Bitcoin purchase details the day following such announcements.
### Notes on alignment with American English habits:
1. **Abbreviated date format**: Used `Jan. 11` (standard for U.S. news briefs, omitting year if context is clear).
2. **Clarity & accuracy**: Expanded `Strategy` to `MicroStrategy` (critical—Michael Saylor is *MicroStrategy*’s founder; readers would not recognize vague "Strategy").
3. **Conciseness**: Replaced wordy phrases like *"released Bitcoin Tracker related information"* with *"shared information related to its Bitcoin tracker"* (natural, active tone).
4. **Temporal precision**: Used *"the day following such announcements"* (more idiomatic than *"on the second day after such news is released"* for U.S. news).
5. **Present perfect tense**: Applied *"has shared"* / *"has disclosed"* to emphasize rece

Coinbase Bitcoin Price Premium Index has been in a negative premium for 5 consecutive days, currently at -0.126%.
January 11 — Coinglass data shows the Coinbase BTC Premium Index has held a negative premium for 5 consecutive days, currently at -0.126%. Over the past 28 days, it has been negative for 26 of those days.
BlockBeats Note: The Coinbase BTC Premium Index measures the gap between Bitcoin’s price on Coinbase (a leading U.S. exchange) and the global average. It’s a key indicator for tracking U.S. market capital inflows, institutional interest, and shifts in market sentiment.
A positive premium (Coinbase price > global average) typically signals: strong U.S. buying pressure, active entry of institutional/regulated funds, ample USD liquidity, and bullish sentiment. A negative premium (Coinbase price < global average) usually reflects: notable U.S. selling pressure, reduced investor risk appetite, rising market risk aversion, or capital outflows.

EF Board Member: Ethereum's Future Depends on the Direct Integration of Zero-Knowledge Proofs
January 11: Hsiao-Wei Wang, Co-Executive of the Ethereum Foundation, noted that Ethereum is making steady progress toward a future where zk-SNARKs become a core network component—years of research now paired with real-world advancements. Zero-knowledge proofs are part of Ethereum’s mid-term roadmap, with breakthroughs seen over the past one to two years. While the network’s current upgrade priorities center on improving Layer 2 execution and Blob space, protocol-level zero-knowledge features are growing increasingly feasible.
Additionally, Ethereum researchers have unveiled a native zkEVM plan that would let the network default to using zero-knowledge proofs for transaction validation. This technology could drastically cut the computational work needed to secure Ethereum, enabling scalability without compromising decentralization or reliability. Wang emphasized that while the network continues to evolve, Ethereum’s core principles—anti-censorship, security, and neutrality—remain unc

Solana: As X becomes the catch-all application, Solana will be ingrained within
On January 11, Solana officials stated: “X is evolving into an all-encompassing app, and Solana will be integrated into it soon.”
Earlier today, reports emerged that X is currently developing Smart Asset Tags. These tags will let users specify particular assets (or smart contracts) when posting price-related tweets on the platform. Users can click the tags in their timeline to view the asset’s real-time price and all associated information. The plan is to keep iterating and gathering feedback ahead of the public launch next month.
