**Crypto Collapse: Chinese Vet Eryi Hua Loses $700M in a Week, Dumps 440k ETH – Tencent Finance**
A Feb. 9 article from Tencent Finance’s "DeepTech" reports that Chinese crypto veteran Eryi Hua—targeted in the latest market plunge—lost $700 million in just one week.
Initially, he considered holding on: In the first four days of February, he sold only ~190,000 Ethereum (ETH) and paused selling on Feb. 5, still holding 460,000 ETH. On Feb. 4, he posted, "I’m bullish on this bull market—now’s the best time to buy spot."

Biden Adviser Suggests Holding Walsh Confirmation Hearing Alongside Powell Probe
On February 9, U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen proposed holding the confirmation hearing for Wall’s Federal Reserve nomination concurrently with the investigation into current Fed Chair Jerome Powell.

Though Tillis supports Wall’s appointment as Fed chair, as a member of the Senate Banking Committee, he has repeatedly vowed to block the nomination until the DOJ uncovers the full truth to uphold the Fed’s independence.
Tillis’s vote is critical: Republicans hold 13 of the 24 seats on the Senate Banking Committee, and they could unite to confirm Wall’s nomination. But with Tillis defecting, a tie vote is possible.
