Market Signal Briefing

Helium Mobile has announced that it will permanently halt the early adopter pricing plan, which costs $5 per month. The news caused frustration among early adopters, who took to social media to express their dissatisfaction.

Helium Mobile, a leading decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN), has announced that it will discontinue its initial payment plans, including the one tailored for early adopters. The changes will take effect on January 27, with updates to the early access $5 and $20 plans, as well as the zero plan. 

The organization stated that it will communicate directly with all affected users to inform them of the changes. The company had initially promised early-access users standard promotional rates “forever”, but has now discontinued the plans and urged users to opt for higher tiers before the end of January.

Helium upgrades all early access $5 and $20 plans to Air Plan 📌 Starting Jan 27, we’re making a few updates.

Changes apply to early-access plans ($5 Beta, $20) and the Zero Plan. Affected subscribers will be notified directly.

These updates help keep our phone plans among some of the most affordable in the country, long-term.

The firm announced that the remaining early access $5 and $20 plans will be upgraded to Air Plan. The mobile network provider detailed that early access users with $5 plans will receive a one-time $10 credit on their accounts as an incentive for participating in the project’s initial development stages. The company said that users who upgrade their $5 subscription plan to Air or Infinity before the deadline will receive a 50% discount for a year and $50 in Cloud Points.

The company introduced the zero plan, allowing users to use the platform for a limited amount of data, texts, and calls each month. Users on this plan used to receive 100 minutes of talk time, 300 text messages, and 3GB of data every month.

However, things are about to change for this plan. The decentralized network also mentioned that zero plans will still include 3GB of free data every month, including “1GB from our nationwide partner, plus 2GB when Helium coverage is available.” Helium announced that taxes and fees from payment partners and governments prompted the adjustments. The firm also mentioned that the charges apply to zero-plan accounts, and the cost will be transferred to the consumers.

Helium Mobile users express frustrations over changes to early access plans Absolute nonsense. You delete the promise of "forever" on your website but Wayback Machine caught you. https://t.co/TyhY2VUt63

So truly sketchy, at best.

The news sparked a wave of frustration and backlash from subscribers who believe the company has betrayed them. Users took to their social media to express their frustrations regarding the changes Helium announced. One particular user termed the changes “absolute nonsense” and highlighted that the entity had deleted the pledge “forever” from the website, but it was captured by an archiving tool.

The user also urged other frustrated users to utilize AI tools, such as ChatGPT and Grok, to write letters to the FTC and their respective state attorney’s office. Amir Haleem, the founder and CEO of Helium, replied to the user, stating that the company did not pledge to offer the $5 plan to early users forever.

Another user stated that the firm did not disclose the cost of taxes and charges for the zero plan and predicted that the network would shut down within a couple of weeks. Other users expressed their disappointment with the upgraded plans, but said users are still unlikely to find a cheaper alternative.

Despite criticism, the decentralized mobile network provider has expanded into new territories as part of its dedicated plan to achieve global coverage. The network expanded to Brazil in December of last year. So far, Data from Helium Explorer shows that 29 hotspots have surfaced in the country. Helium’s Latin American deployments now exceed 1,000, and the platform cumulatively hosts 1.7 million daily users, facilitating the transmission of over 71.13 TBs of data through its carrier offload program.

Helium launched a kids plan called Sprout in June 2025. The plan will enable parents to actively guide their children through the increasingly connected world. The plan costs $ 5 per month and gives parents and guardians total control over what their kids do.

Key NotesLedger partners with Lombard and Figment to offer BTC yield without sacrificing self-custody or control.LBTC tokens earn rewards by securing Bitcoin-adjacent networks through Babylon's staking infrastructure.The feature targets long-term holders, though current APY sits at just 0.41% according to DefiLlama. Ledger Wallet’s new bitcoin rewards feature lets self-custody bitcoin holders earn yield, integrating BTC into DeFi through Lombard and Figment without relinquishing control or altering Bitcoin’s base layer.

Ledger has activated these new features inside its Wallet app. It is initially accessible through the Discover section via a Figment-powered dApp that connects to Lombard’s infrastructure.

The company targets long-term holders and active traders seeking additional returns while maintaining control of their assets. Moreover, according to Lombard’s press release, only about 1.5% of the total BTC is currently active on-chain and unused.

With this tool, users deposit bitcoin, which is then converted into LBTC, a liquid token that tracks BTC and is designed to earn staking rewards. Ledger plans to extend the Discover feature to a native slot in the Earn section later in 2026. This would deepen its role as a BTC DeFi access point.

Your $BTC shouldn't just sit idle.

Unlock rewards through the Ledger Wallet app with @Lombard_Finance via @Figment_io.

Through the Figment dApp in Ledger Wallet, BTC holders can access Lombard’s fully backed LBTC and earn rewards while staying fully in control of their assets.… pic.twitter.com/NbqjaBxWif

— Ledger (@Ledger) January 14, 2026

How LBTC and Babylon Generate BTC yield The yield feature for Bitcoin BTC $97 430 24h volatility: 3.4% Market cap: $1.95 T Vol. 24h: $77.12 B uses third-party integrations rather than built-in wallet code. Bitcoin deposits result in the token LBTC, which is easier to stake and remains usable in more DeFi tools.

LBTC accrues BTC-denominated rewards by helping secure “Bitcoin secured networks” via the Babylon Bitcoin Staking Protocol. Figment is one of the platforms that runs validator infrastructure for this process and connects the different networks.

The mechanism does not involve staking on Bitcoin’s base layer, which does not have this function. Instead, it uses BTC as economic collateral for other networks that settle or reference Bitcoin. This process preserves the holder’s underlying BTC exposure.

According to DefiLlama, Babylon Protocol and Lombard have $5.92 billion and $1.04 billion in TVL, respectively, making them the biggest platforms in Bitcoin DeFi.

Making Bitcoin DeFi Easier The Ledger–Lombard–Figment partnership brings BTC holders new earning opportunities in DeFi, signaling an expansion of Bitcoin DeFi amid growing demand for safe, yield-bearing BTC products.

Analysts are watching how much BTC this route can attract and how it interacts with DeFi protocol-level risks. Recent attention has focused on Babylon’s consensus bugs and the broader safety of BTC-backed security models.

For now, Ledger has not disclosed key risk-related information, such as expected APY, fee schedules, custodial risks, or regional availability details, in its press releases. Investors must weigh the promise of BTC-denominated rewards against the limited public disclosure of these risks.

It is worth noting that, according to DefiLlama, LBTC on Lombard reports an APY of 0.41%; this figure may change with different incentives.

If more users adopt it, Ledger could drive significant on-chain activity while helping holders maintain ownership of their coins, reinforcing its leadership as a DeFi gateway in an evolving market.

Ethereum’s outlook has been improving its case. After a prolonged period of underperformance and skepticism, the network is starting to exhibit signs of renewed structural and fundamental strength.  While BTC continues to anchor the market as the primary store of value and digital gold, conditions are emerging that could allow ETH to outperform BTC over the coming period.

Why The Ethereum Narrative Is Gaining Strength Ethereum has been seen outperforming Bitcoin. In a recent post on X, Walter Bloomberg revealed that Standard Chartered says that the ETH outlook has improved, and now ETH might outperform BTC, citing rising institutional demand and stronger fundamental positioning across key on-chain sectors. 

While weakness in BTC has weighed on the broader crypto market, ETH has continued to benefit from institutional-driven demand, and its dominance in stablecoins, decentralized finance (DeFi), and real-world assets (RWA) tokenization.

Standard Chartered also points to the increased throughput and potential US regulatory clarity that it could provide additional upside. In terms of valuation, the bank forecasts ETH at $7,500 this year and $30,000 by 2029, reflecting the expectations of sustained network growth.

The Co-founder of PinkBrains_io, a DeFi Creator Studio, DefiIgnas, has highlighted that Ethereum could outperform Bitcoin this year, and the reason is roadmap execution. While BTC will likely keep facing recurring waves of quantum FUD into 2026, ETH has a clear roadmap to prepare for future cryptographic risks. 

Furthermore, ETH is actually scaling. Gas limits on layer 1 keep rising, and zkEVMs will get full production readiness, making ETH cheap and fast enough for high-value transactions, while layer 2s will handle most of the trading and high-frequency activity.

These upgrades are incremental, which means there’s no breaking news moment for ETH, but progress is happening fast. Early in the cycle, a lot of Degens loaded up on ETH before the bull run, but many got disillusioned and sold their ETH for BTC. “It would be fun to see the playbook reverse higher,” DefiIgnas noted.

A Different Liquidity Cycle Than Previous Bull Markets Crypto liquidity quality witnessed a change in 2025. A technical analyst and show host of Crypto Banter, Kyledoops, reported that Wintermute noted that capital in 2025 stopped rotating broadly across the market. Instead, liquidity is concentrated into Bitcoin, Ethereum, and a small group of large-cap tokens. As a result, the long-anticipated wave of altcoin-wide liquidity never really arrived.

Source: Chart from Kyledoops on X Meanwhile, the rise of spot ETFs and crypto treasury vehicles created a new, highly structured inflow channel that funneled flow into the top of the market. These vehicles break the crypto’s oldest playbooks. Price action is no longer driven by broad market expansion. It’s driven by where new liquidity can actually enter.

On Wednesday, the Chicago-based crypto derivatives exchange Bitnomial launched the first regulated futures contract for the crypto Aptos (APT), coinciding with the network reporting record highs in daily fee and weekly fee generation in early 2026.

“These are the first U.S. APT futures, and a regulated futures market is a prerequisite for spot crypto ETF approval under the SEC’s generic listing standards,” said Michael Dunn, president of Bitnomial Exchange.

The launch coincides with Aptos achieving its highest revenue period, generating about $1.07 million from fees on December 31. This peak was sustained for weeks, with the week ending January 4, generating up to $1.75m.

Aptos has started 2026 hot in terms of revenue generation. Source: Defillama Institutional money is also flowing in: Franklin Templeton and BlackRock have already deployed tokenized funds on Aptos, which now hosts $723 million in real-world assets.

First regulated APT futures open institutional gateway Bitnomial’s APT futures began trading on January 14 and is available through Bitnomial’s trading partner firms. After launch, institutional clients gained immediate access to trading, while retail traders will participate through Bitnomial’s Botanical platform in the coming weeks.

The futures contracts expire monthly and give traders the option to settle in either Aptos tokens or U.S. dollars. Additionally, traders can put up collateral in either crypto or dollars.

The exchange offers the first Aptos futures that are regulated in the United States. Futures products like Bitnomial’s create the necessary infrastructure for future ETF approvals as regulatory frameworks change.

“U.S.-regulated derivatives are essential for institutional adoption,” stated Solomon Tesfaye, chief business officer of Aptos, who also noted that Bitnomial’s regulated platform provides investors with the compliance framework required to access Aptos.

Aptos has seen RWA explosion Major financial institutions have recognized Aptos’ potential for regulated applications. Built with the Move programming language, Aptos processed about 2 billion mainnet transactions in 2024. Monthly active users surged to over 8 million accounts with daily active addresses up to 1.77 million in December, and total value locked growing approximately 700% through 2024 to exceed $1 billion.

Franklin Templeton chose Aptos to host its On-Chain U.S. Government Money Fund (FOBXX), while BlackRock’s BUIDL tokenized money market fund also deployed on the network. The blockchain is also the third-largest network for real-world assets, with about $723 million issued on-chain. PACT’s micro-lending and credit portfolios in emerging markets represent 78% of the RWA footprint.

Bitnomial’s milestone underscores Aptos’ maturing ecosystem at a moment when institutions seek compliant ways to tap its growth.

TL;DR

Solana introduces optional privacy features for token transactions and balances. The tools use zero-knowledge cryptography and are enabled during token creation. This shift reduces the public transparency that helped investors detect fraud. The Solana network is implementing new privacy functions for tokens. These tools allow users to obscure balances and transactions on the blockchain. They use zero-knowledge cryptography and encryption methods. Developers can voluntarily activate these options when creating a token. The chain itself maintains its overall verification capability.

It does not pursue absolute secrecy, but offers optional privacy. Projects like Anoncoin already offer economic incentives to create tools that facilitate private token launches. Some rewards reach 10,000 dollars. This brings Solana closer to privacy functionalities similar to Zcash’s, but applied directly at the token launch layer.

Privacy in token launches will make trading memecoins even more fun.

Imagine creating Zcash style memecoins with a simple toggle with the C-SPL standard.

Anoncoin is giving out bounties worth $10,000 to those building privacy tooling for token launches. https://t.co/EfZFQlMFpp pic.twitter.com/v4eQSy7UTy

Public blockchains like Solana and Ethereum gained trust through their transparency. Anyone can review a token’s supply, distribution among wallets, and movements in real time. This visibility functions as a defense mechanism for retail investors. It helps them identify potential fraud, such as “rug pulls” or sudden liquidity drains.

Launches with built-in privacy features change this principle Encrypted balances, opaque capitalization tables, and masked transfers remove key signals. Investors lose basic tools to detect red flags. The innovation carries an evident risk: it reduces the visibility that protects common users, especially in high-speculation sectors like memecoins.

They can protect legitimate users from unnecessary financial exposure. They enable new use cases as tokens interact with more applications and wallets. The central problem is not the technology, but its application context. Privacy in launches reduces the cost to conceal bad practices. If liquidity can vanish behind a veil of encryption, accountability weakens.

The Solana ecosystem is now experimenting with this technical edge. The immediate challenge is not proving the technology works, but managing its consequences. The incentives for creators of private tools and the interests of speculative traders converge in the same space. This overlap creates fertile ground for innovation, but also for hidden behavior. 

Solana’s official social media account has reignited long-running layer-one versus layer-two rivalries after publicly mocking Starknet over valuation and network usage, drawing wide attention across crypto markets.

The post, shared on Wednesday, contrasted Starknet’s billion-dollar market capitalization with what it described as extremely low daily activity. Consequently, the message quickly spread across X, attracting reactions from traders, developers, and rival blockchain communities. 

Besides the humor, the exchange highlighted persistent debates about whether valuation should reflect real network demand or future expectations. The incident also reinforced Solana’s reputation for using social media to directly challenge competing ecosystems.

Solana Takes Aim at Starknet MetricsThe comment targeted Starknet, an Ethereum layer-2 built on zero-knowledge technology. It suggested that Starknet maintained high valuations despite minimal user engagement. However, updated data painted a more complex picture. 

Current metrics show more than 65,000 daily active users, roughly 759,000 daily operations, and hundreds of millions in secured value. Additionally, decentralized exchange activity and perpetual trading volumes remain active, undermining the most extreme claims circulating online.

Moreover, the post appeared to reference an older on-chain snapshot from 2024, when Starknet activity temporarily dipped. That context fueled debate about selective data use during market commentary. 

Consequently, responses poured in from industry figures and projects, including Bubblemaps and MegaETH, while Pump.fun co-founder Alon Cohen joined the discussion. Starknet itself has not issued a public reply, keeping the exchange one-sided.

Community Reaction and Layer RivalriesSignificantly, the exchange underscored broader tensions between Solana and the Ethereum scaling ecosystem. Starknet supporters countered by revisiting Solana’s historical network outages. 

Solana advocates, however, framed the post as commentary on execution and user demand rather than infrastructure design. Hence, the interaction evolved into a cultural clash reflecting deeper disagreements over performance, decentralization, and adoption paths.

The Solana account has engaged in similar disputes, including debates involving Ripple and XRP competitiveness. Additionally, such exchanges often coincide with periods of heightened market attention for Solana itself.

SOL Price Strength Adds FuelMoreover, the timing coincided with renewed optimism around Solana itself. SOL traded near $147.47, posting a 2.89% daily gain and an 8.72% increase over seven days. Trading volume exceeded $8 billion, underscoring strong market participation. With roughly 570 million tokens circulating, Solana’s market capitalization stood above $83 billion.

According to analyst Ali Martinez, Solana recently flipped bullish on the SuperTrend indicator, a signal traders often watch closely. Additionally, curb.sol reported a decisive breakout from both a two-month horizontal resistance and a four-month diagonal trendline. Consequently, analysts warned against dismissing the move, suggesting momentum could carry SOL toward the $200 level.

TL;DR

Aave’s market capitalization fell by roughly $500 million after a public dispute between the DAO and Aave Labs unsettled investors. The conflict focused on fee distribution, control of intellectual property, and value capture inside the protocol. Despite the sell-off, on-chain data showed large holders accumulating AAVE and protocol activity staying resilient, helping contain deeper losses.
Aave’s governance token experienced heightened volatility in mid-December 2025 as a power struggle between the Aave DAO and Aave Labs reignited questions about decentralization and incentive alignment. The dispute weighed on market confidence and triggered a rapid pullback, briefly erasing close to $500 million in market value. The episode highlighted governance frictions that continue to challenge large DeFi protocols as they mature.

Aave Governance Conflict Brings Control Issues To The Surface The disagreement began when DAO members identified that swap fees from a recent integration were routed to wallets controlled by Aave Labs, rather than the DAO treasury. In earlier implementations, similar revenue streams had benefited token holders, shaping expectations of shared economic upside.

Aave Labs maintained that the integration was funded independently, justifying a separate revenue structure. That response failed to settle concerns and expanded the debate toward brand ownership, intellectual property rights, and decision-making authority across the ecosystem.

Governance discussions intensified between December 11 and December 22 as proposals emerged to move key Aave assets under DAO oversight. Several large market participants criticized the process for lacking clarity and poor timing. During this period, AAVE’s price dropped nearly 15%, directly contributing to the sharp contraction in market capitalization.

On-Chain Signals Point To Stability Beyond Price Moves While short-term sentiment weakened, network fundamentals remained solid. Analytics firms reported that protocol deposits increased on a yearly basis, while weekly revenue reached record levels toward the end of 2025. User activity and capital efficiency showed limited disruption.

At the same time, large holders accumulated AAVE as prices declined. Data indicated that top wallets increased their share of supply, while exchange balances fell, suggesting reduced selling pressure. Transaction patterns pointed to measured accumulation rather than panic.

By early January 2026, sentiment indicators improved after Aave Labs signaled openness to revenue-sharing discussions. AAVE rebounded modestly, trading near $178, up about 5% over 24 hours, though still lower on a monthly basis.

The situation underscored the difficulty of balancing decentralization with operational leadership. For Aave, the resolution of these governance talks will be critical in determining whether the protocol can reinforce long-term confidence while maintaining its position in DeFi.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission concluded its review of the Zcash Foundation on Wednesday. The agency also informed the public charity that it doesn’t intend to take any enforcement action or other charges against Zcash Foundation regarding its crypto offerings. 

The SEC subpoenaed Zcash Foundation on August 31, 2023, in connection with an inquiry regarding certain digital asset offerings. The foundation stated that the outcome reflects its commitment to transparency and compliance with applicable regulatory requirements. 

Zcash network launches five new DNS seeders We are pleased to announce that the SEC has concluded its review and informed us that it does not intend to recommend any enforcement action or other changes against Zcash Foundation regarding this matter. https://t.co/zjxfh3mmst

— Zcash Foundation 🛡️ (@ZcashFoundation) January 14, 2026

The SEC’s probe focused on regulations regarding anti-money laundering, economic sanctions, and securities. The announcement followed a 12% surge in the price of Zcash over 24 hours, which is currently trading at $437. On-chain data revealed that the digital asset has nearly doubled in the past three months, despite a decline in digital asset prices in October.

The conclusion of the SEC’s probe comes as the nonprofit organization announced an expansion to the Zcash Network Infrastructure on Tuesday. The foundation deployed five new DNS seeders in South Carolina, Oregon, Belgium, Germany, and Finland. Zcash Foundation currently has six ZF-operated seeders, with one in Iowa. 

The ZF-linked DNS aims to help new nodes establish their initial connections, enabling fast transactions on the network. The Zcash network previously relied on a flurry of DNS seeders operated by the Electric Coin Company (ECC), the Zcash Foundation (ZF), and Zcash Core developer Jack Grigg (str4d).

Zcash Foundation noted that the DNS operated by ECC stopped responding on January 8. The organization argued that ECC seeders had gone offline, resulting in slower-than-usual bootstrapping for new Zcash users. The hiccup reduced the number of available seeders, allowing additional infrastructure to ensure reliable peer discovery for users.

ZF acknowledged that multiple DNS seeders in different geographic locations will boost reliability. The firm believes it will ensure wallets and nodes can always find peers on the network, even during outages. The organization also noted that the initiative enhances performance by reducing startup times for wallets and nodes.

The Zcash Foundation stated that it’s considering additional deployments in other regions to further improve coverage and reliability. The organization also revealed that Shielded Labs is working to deploy additional seeders.

Zcash Foundation focuses on advancing privacy-preserving technology After the resignations at Electric Coin Company, ZF maintained that it’s focused on advancing privacy-preserving financial infrastructure for the public good. The organization added that it’s making efforts to steward Zcash as a decentralized and open-source protocol.

ZF confirmed that no contributor, team, or organization controls Zcash, since its codebase is open-source. The organization revealed that Zcash’s consensus rules are enforced by independent node operators globally. Other organizations and contributors also support the development of the protocol.

Zcash Foundation stated that the structure ensures that changes within organizations do not compromise the integrity or continuity of the Zcash blockchain. The organization argued that the network continues to operate normally by continuing to produce blocks, settle transactions, and ensure users’ funds and privacy remain secure.

ZF revealed that it’s focused on maintaining and supporting the development of the Zcash protocol, as well as allocating funding for independent research and engineering. The foundation is also focused on supporting decentralization across governance and will also advocate for privacy in the protocol.

The organization stated that although transitioning within the ecosystem creates uncertainty, it’s important for users to distinguish between organizational shifts and the health of the network. ZF acknowledged that its network is independent of any single organization, board, or corporate entity. The firm stated that its network’s resilience and future depend on users, miners, researchers, developers, and organizations united by a shared commitment to privacy-preserving technology.

Zcash Foundation also maintained that it remains committed to transparency, continuity, and collaboration with all ecosystem participants. The organization has also promised to act in the best long-term interests of the Zcash network and community.

Bitcoin’s recent level of $95k is a great buying zone for mid-term investors.

According to the Bitcoin rainbow chart, a model used to identify key inflection points and valuation-based market cyclical patterns, a ‘fire sale’ for the asset was flashed. 

The last time the signal was flagged was in H2 2024 and Q1 2025, Bitcoin [BTC] rebounded and cooled off after surging to the ‘accumulate’ zones. 

Source: Blockchain Center

As of writing, the ‘accumulate’ zone was around $150K-$160K price area. That would translate to a potential 60% upside if past trends repeat. 

However, if the 4-year cycle isn’t dead as some claim, and history repeats itself, then a better discount window could be feasible if BTC slips to $65K-$75K area. This is a “BTC is dead” zone that marked cycle lows of past bear markets. 

Is a mid-term relief likely? The positive outlook in the short to medium term was also reinforced by the decline in selling pressure on the derivatives market. According to CryptoQuant analyst DarkFost, the pressure in the Futures market had dropped from nearly $500 million to $51 million – A 90% drop in selling. 

He added, 

“If Net Taker Volume were to turn positive again, it would clearly ignite the fuse for a bullish reversal.”

Source: CryptoQuant

In other words, the current BTC value would be a great buying opportunity if the net selling were to flip to net buying again. 

Bitcoin’s overall demand is still low Meanwhile, the spot market has also shown slight improvement. 

The demand from corporate treasuries has bounced back, led by Strategy. Public firms have added approximately 43,000 BTC per month, or 260,000 BTC, over the past six months. 

Source: Glassnode 

However, the current price consolidation within $85K-$95K range has absorbed significant distribution for OG Bitcoiners and ETFs in late 2025. In fact, in early 2026, the U.S. Spot BTC ETF inflows have posted mixed results. 

As of press time, the overall demand for BTC, factoring in ETFs and corporate treasury firms, remained low, reinforcing little confidence among bulls. 

The 30-day Average Apparent BTC demand has declined from over 800K BTC in December to 284K and was still dropping at press time. Unless the trend reverts, the recent attempt to break out above $95k may fail to materialize. 

Source: CryptoQuant 

Overall, the BTC rainbow chart suggested that the current level or an extra dip to $65k-$75k would still be a discounted buying window. 

Final Thoughts  The Bitcoin rainbow chart flagged a ‘fire sale’ window at the current price of $95k.  However, BTC demand was yet to fully recover from the late 2025 sell-off despite some relief signs.

In brief Sui blockchain suffered a six-hour outage, the second major incident since 2023 launch. The network was fully restored by 4:30 p.m. ET, with a full incident report coming soon. The SUI token was barely affected, trading at $1.85 with minimal price impact. The Sui blockchain has recovered from an outage that lasted nearly six hours, knocking the layer-1 network out of commission without any new blocks being produced during that span.

The network's X account said Wednesday morning that Sui was experiencing a "network stall," and that "the Sui Core team is actively working on a solution."

A few hours later, the Sui network status site was updated to say that a "fix has been implemented and we are monitoring the results." Around 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time, the site noted that "validators have rolled out the fix and the system is fully functional."

The Sui Foundation team said on X that it will provide a full incident report "in the coming days." Decrypt reached out to the Sui Foundation and Mysten Labs for comment, but did not immediately receive a response.

The Sui network is now back and fully operational. Transactions are flowing normally. If you are still seeing issues, please refresh your app or browser window. Thanks for your patience. We will share a full incident review in the coming days.

Please check…

— Sui (@SuiNetwork) January 14, 2026

This marks the second major outage in the Sui network's history following an event in November 2024. "All validators were stuck in a crash loop, preventing all transaction processing," the foundation wrote in a blog post about the November outage.

The network was developed by Mysten Labs and launched in May 2023. Mysten is led by several former senior executives and architects for Meta’s now-defunct digital wallet program, Novi.

The SUI token, which launched the same time as the network, has barely been affected by the outage. At the time of writing, SUI was trading for $1.85 after having gained 0.2% in the past day. It's now 1.4% higher than it was this time last week, according to crypto price aggregator CoinGecko.

Sui was launched as a so-called Solana killer, aiming to beat its competitor on speed and throughput. Sui sets itself apart from some earlier blockchain ecosystems by allowing parallel processing of transactions and horizontal scaling, which allows it to maintain low transaction costs.

The Sui network currently holds just over $1 billion worth of assets, according to data from DeFi Llama. That figure had been on the decline since October, when the network held $2.6 billion worth of assets.

It slid below $1 billion in early December, the same time the broader crypto market saw prices sag, has been steadily climbing since the start of this year.

Tether-backed mobile wallet Oobit has expanded real-world crypto payments by adding native support for Phantom Wallet, a major Solana platform. The move allows more than 15 million Phantom users to spend digital assets anywhere Visa is accepted. Significantly, the integration removes one of crypto’s longest-standing barriers by turning self-custody wallets into everyday payment tools without changing merchant behavior.

The launch reflects a broader shift in crypto usage. Blockchains now process transactions quickly, and wallets offer simple interfaces. However, daily spending has remained limited. 

Oobit’s Phantom integration aims to close that gap by connecting existing wallets directly to traditional payment rails. Consequently, users can now move from holding crypto to spending it in real-world settings.

How the Integration Changes Crypto SpendingWith Phantom enabled inside Oobit, users can pay online or in stores without pre-funding accounts or using bridges. Funds stay under user control until payment approval. Moreover, transactions execute directly from the wallet, convert instantly to local currency, and settle through Visa’s network.

Importantly, merchants do not need new hardware or onboarding. Wherever Visa already works, Phantom payments now work as well. Hence, the integration avoids friction on both sides of the transaction. Users maintain self-custody, while merchants receive local currency through familiar systems.

The service is live across more than 80 countries, including the United States, Brazil, the Philippines, South Korea, and Thailand. Additionally, Oobit reports strong adoption in regions where stablecoins increasingly support daily expenses rather than long-term storage.

Executive View and Market ContextOobit leadership described the launch as a turning point for crypto adoption. Amram Adar, co-founder and CEO of Oobit, said, “This is the moment crypto leaves the screen and enters daily use.” He added, “As longtime fans of Phantom, seeing this wallet become real money for everyday life is incredibly exciting.”

The expansion reflects broader industry readiness. Infrastructure has matured, wallet adoption has scaled, and merchant acceptance already exists. However, a simple connection between wallets and payments remained missing. Moreover, Oobit designed its platform specifically to close that gap.

Oobit’s ties to Solana run deep. Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko co-led Oobit’s $25 million Series A round alongside Tether, CMCC Global, and 468 Capital. Moreover, the OOB token completed its migration from Ethereum to Solana in late 2025, aligning the project with Phantom’s ecosystem.

In November, Malaysia-based VCI Global announced a $100 million investment in OOB tokens. The firm also outlined plans to manage Oobit’s digital treasury. Consequently, Tether became a major stakeholder in that structure.

A live webcast of the call will be available on the Investor Relations section of CODI’s website.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings (Loss) are non-GAAP measures used by the Company to assess its performance. We have reconciled Adjusted EBITDA to Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations and Adjusted Earnings (Loss) to Net Income (Loss) on the attached schedules. We consider Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations to be the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted EBITDA and Net Income (Loss) to be the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted Earnings (Loss). We believe that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Earnings (Loss) provide useful information to investors and reflect important financial measures as each excludes the effects of items that reflect the impact of long-term investment decisions, rather than the performance of near-term operations. When compared to Net Income (Loss) and Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations, Adjusted Earnings (Loss) and Adjusted EBITDA, respectively, are each limited in that they do not reflect the periodic costs of certain capital assets used in generating revenues of our businesses or the non-cash charges associated with impairments, as well as certain cash charges. The presentation of Adjusted EBITDA allows investors to view the performance of our businesses in a manner similar to the methods used by us and the management of our businesses, provides additional insight into our operating results and provides a measure for evaluating targeted businesses for acquisition. The presentation of Adjusted Earnings (Loss) provides insight into our operating results.

Pro forma net sales is defined as net sales including the historical net sales relating to the pre-acquisition periods of The Honey Pot Co., assuming that the Company acquired The Honey Pot Co. on January 1, 2024. We have reconciled pro forma net sales to net sales, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, on the attached schedules. We believe that pro forma net sales is useful information for investors as it provides a better understanding of sales performance, and relative changes thereto, on a comparable basis. Pro forma net sales is not necessarily indicative of what the actual results would have been if the acquisition had in fact occurred on the date or for the periods indicated nor does it purport to project net sales for any future periods or as of any date.

In reliance on the unreasonable efforts exception provided under Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K, we have not reconciled 2025 Subsidiary Adjusted EBITDA to its comparable GAAP measure because we do not provide guidance on Net Income (Loss) from Continuing Operations or the applicable reconciling items as a result of the uncertainty regarding, and the potential variability of, these items. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Earnings and pro forma net sales are not meant to be a substitute for GAAP measures and may be different from or otherwise inconsistent with non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

Company exchanges outstanding preferred stock for combination of cash, common stock and senior notes January 14, 2026 16:10 ET  | Source: Inseego Corp.

SAN DIEGO, Jan. 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Inseego Corp. (Nasdaq: INSG) (the “Company”), a global leader in 5G mobile broadband and 5G fixed wireless access (FWA) solutions, today (the “Closing Date”) announced that it has completed the repurchase of all of its outstanding Fixed-Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series E (the “Preferred Stock”) in exchange for a combination of cash, common stock of the Company and senior secured notes.

Under the terms of the exchange, the Company retired 100% of the Preferred Stock, which had a liquidation preference of $42 million as of December 31, 2025, in exchange for $26 million of aggregate consideration, representing a 38% discount, and consisting of $10 million in cash, $8 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s existing 9.0% Senior Secured Notes due 2029, and approximately 767,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

The cash consideration will be paid in three equal installments, with one-third paid at the Closing Date, one-third payable six months following the Closing Date, and the remaining one-third payable 12 months following the Closing Date. The common stock issued in the exchange is subject to customary registration rights.

“This transaction is another step in the deliberate work we’ve been doing to simplify and strengthen Inseego’s capital structure,” said Steven Gatoff, CFO of Inseego. “By fully retiring the Preferred Stock at a discount to its aggregate liquidation preference, we are reducing long-term obligations, further improving the balance sheet and continuing to increase stockholder value.”

The Preferred Stock was held by an affiliate of Mubadala Capital. As a result of the exchange, that affiliate now holds a minority position in the Company’s common stock.

“We’re honored to have Mubadala Capital in our long-term journey and value creation mission as common stockholders,” said Juho Sarvikas, CEO of Inseego. “Our focus remains on executing our strategy, scaling the business, and delivering durable growth for our stockholders.”

The information presented in this news release related to the Company, future business outlook, and other statements that are not purely historical facts are forward-looking.

They are subject to significant risks and uncertainties that could cause results to differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements.

Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company’s expectations include: (1) the Company’s dependence on a small number of customers for a substantial portion of its revenues; (2) the future demand for wireless broadband access to data and device management software and services and the Company’s ability to accurately forecast; (3) the growth of wireless wide-area networking and device management software and services; (4) customer and end-user acceptance of the Company’s current product and service offerings and market demand for the Company’s anticipated new product and service offerings; (5) the Company’s ability to develop sales channels and to onboard channel partners; (6) increased competition and pricing pressure from participants in the markets in which the Company is engaged; (7) dependence on third-party manufacturers and key component suppliers worldwide; (8) the impact of fluctuations of foreign currency exchange rates; (9) the impact of supply chain challenges on the Company’s ability to source components and manufacture the Company’s products; (10) unexpected liabilities or expenses; (11) the Company’s ability to introduce new products and services in a timely manner, including the ability to develop and launch 5G products at the speed and functionality required by its customers; (12) litigation, regulatory and IP developments related to the Company’s products or components of its products; (13) the Company’s ability to raise additional financing when the Company requires capital for operations or to satisfy corporate obligations; (14) the Company’s plans and expectations relating to acquisitions, divestitures, strategic relationships, international expansion, software and hardware developments, personnel matters, and cost containment initiatives, including restructuring activities and the timing of their implementations; (15) the global semiconductor shortage and any related price increases or supply chain disruptions, (16) the potential impact of COVID-19 or other global public health emergencies on the business, (17) the impact of high rates of inflation and rising interest rates, (18) the impact of import tariffs on the Company’s materials and products, and (19) the impact of geopolitical instability on the Company’s business.

These factors, as well as other factors set forth as risk factors or otherwise described in the reports filed by the Company with the SEC (available at www.sec.gov), could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in the Company’s forward-looking statements. The Company assumes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future, except as otherwise required under applicable law.

This is actually Omada Health's first time as a public company presenting. I know you've been here many times as a private company. Presenting for the company will be Sean Duffy, and then we will have a little fireside chat afterwards with Wei-Li and Steve Hooks. So with that, let me turn it over to you, Sean.

Sean Duffy
Co-Founder, CEO & Director

Super. Well, thank you, Lisa. Good morning, everybody. So I'm Sean Duffy. I'm the Co-Founder and CEO of Omada Health. And Omada Health is a between visit provider. So excited to share over the course of 20, 25 minutes what we do and the big mission of the business. I'll start with, obviously, the most beautiful slide, which is our disclaimers. These can be found on our website. So reading material for tonight.

Omada's explicit mission is to bend the curve, and that's to bend the curve of disease and epidemiology. When I was a medical student at Harvard, I saw a problem on a daily basis in front of me, which is that many patients, especially with today's disease realities, have the wrong kind of care. And this was especially true for the 156 million Americans suffering from chronic disease.

And so I sat in the homes of people with obesity with

Scott Callon
Chairman & Representative Statutory Executive Officer

Thank you, everybody, for waiting. I'm Scott Callon, Chairman of Ichigo. I am joined today by Dan Morisaku, who is a senior member of our Finance team and the Head of Global IR. Thank you so much, everybody, for joining us today. We're working off of the presentation in front of you, which is also on our website, FY, fiscal year '26 February. So ending next month, the Q3 corporate presentation. So let's go to it.

I think the overview is that it's both a strong operating environment, but more importantly, what's happening in real estate in Japan is deeply in line with the core capabilities of our firm. As you know, we are a value-add investor. We, in principle, don't do development. I'll talk a little bit about what we've done in logistics. And as we say internally, when people ask me, can we do development, it's like only if you don't take development risk. So we did -- we've done it with logistics.

We specialize in taking existing assets, preserving and improving real estate -- existing assets and improving them. Because of inflation, construction inflation -- and by the way, this model is the right model for not only Japan, but for the rest of the world, but Japan has classically done a lot of destructive redevelopment, which is economically and ecologically wasteful. And so what's happened now is much of that uneconomic development has become even more economic because of rising construction costs. And so -- we just have a massive opportunity, much less competition from redevelopment, much better opportunity to add value for our shareholders.

If you're thinking, 2027? That’s quite a way off; you might not realize that Micron’s NASDAQ: MU key product is already fully booked through 2026. It's the 2027 forecasts—uncertain in valuation by analysts—that will influence this stock in 2026.

HBM memory, the memory powering the GPUs on which AI is run, is sold out. That’s leading to global shortages and, for Micron, an opportunity to expand production and take share. It is a leading provider of advanced HBM memory components. The latest news is groundbreaking at its Clay, NY, location, but that is a catalyst for the future. The Clay facility won’t begin phasing operations for several years, making other projects more impactful in the near term. 

Get Micron Technology alerts:

In the near term, Micron has several expansions underway, with the first expected to go live this year. An advanced packaging facility in Singapore strengthens the company’s position in the AI supply chain, enabling expanded and accelerated packaging of critical HBM components. The move also moves Micron’s production away from China/Taiwan while positioning it for market share gains. After that, facilities in Boise and Japan will come online by mid-2027 and late 2028, further boosting HBM capacity. The Boise expansion consists of two facilities, Fab 1 and Fab 2, which will boost supply while strengthening Micron’s domestic footprint and domestic AI manufacturing capabilities. 

HBM Demand Drives Higher Prices, Supply Won’t Catch Up Soon Demand for HBM memory is so high that not only is Micron sold out, but its competitors are as well. The impact is seen in pricing, which soared by as much as 60% in 2025 as contracts were hammered out, and in revenue, which was a blowout in Q1 fiscal year 2026. HBM4, the next generation, is expected to launch at scale this year, and it is also sold out.

The optimistic forecast is that HBM supply shortages will persist at least until early 2027, and the odds are high that they will persist much longer. While production is ramping, Micron says it can meet about 60% of its 2026 demand, suggesting supply will struggle to keep up with demand in 2027 as well. The more pessimistic forecasts have supply shortages lingering into 2028 due to high data center demand.

The forecast for 2026 is for Micron’s revenue to grow approximately 100% compared to the prior year. The company will likely outperform its consensus estimate; the real question is what 2027 will look like. As it stands, the consensus reported by MarketBeat is only 20% revenue growth, which seems unlikely given the 2026 shortfalls and rising prices. The more likely scenario is that revenue will grow at a more robust pace, underpinned by ramping production, rising prices, and HBM4 sales. 

Bullish Analysts Trends Support and Lead Micron’s Stock Price  Analysts' trends are bullish and likely to remain so at least through year’s end. 100% of analysts are increasing their targets, but so far, most of the impact is on the near-term outlook, including 2026 and 2027. Longer-term forecasts are rising, but not at the same pace, leaving room for this trend to continue as the year progresses. 

Micron ranks second for sentiment and price target trends among the Most Upgraded Stocks tracked by MarketBeat, with 37 analysts giving it a consensus Buy rating. The market is front-running the consensus price target by approximately 10% as of mid-January, but the consensus price target trend provides market support as it is up more than 100% in the last 12 months. The trend also leads the market, with high-end forecasts showing more than 30% upside. 

Micron’s Strong Uptrend Not Over Yet Micron reached a peak in late December 2025/early January 2026, but its uptrend isn’t over. Far from it. The MACD, specifically, indicates strength and converges with the high, suggesting higher highs are coming. The question is whether the market consolidates or corrects before advancing, and it appears to be consolidating in January. The trigger for bulls will be a move to new highs. It will signal the continuation of the trend and the potential for this market to advance another $100, approaching the analysts’ high-end target.

Bitcoin has continued to post strong moves for most of 2026 so far, all thanks to the resilience portrayed by its retail and institutional investors.

While Bitcoin has resumed a major resurgence after the first 2026 market dip that sent its price back into deep red territory, its latest rally appears to have been driven largely by rapid participation from large holders in recent days.

30,000 BTC scooped in five daysOn Wednesday, January 14, popular crypto analyst Ali Martinez disclosed on-chain data revealing that whales have accumulated more than 30,000 BTC in the last five days.

Per Bitcoin’s current price, the massive accumulation saw whales buy tokens worth over $2.7 billion in just a few days. The sharp increase in whale balances is clearly visible in the chart from Santiment shared by the analyst.

Although the crypto market has kickstarted the new year on a very strong note, this strong accumulation from large Bitcoin holders has sent one of the strongest signals the market has seen in weeks.

The chart revealed that whale wallets climbed steadily from around 9.32 million BTC to above 9.42 million BTC, marking one of the fastest accumulation streaks in recent months.

While aggressive Bitcoin accumulation like this has historically appeared during periods of quiet consolidation, it has often preceded a major rally in the price of the asset.

Hence, the ongoing resurgence in the price of Bitcoin is largely attributable to this aggressive buying activity from whales.

Bitcoin nears $100,000After seeing multiple severe price corrections that sent its price back to retest the $81,000 level, Bitcoin is finally back on track to reclaim the long-lost $100,000 level.

Although the asset is currently trading near the $97,000 level after seeing a rapid surge of over 4% in the last day, investors are confident that it is set for a bigger rally.

Usually, when whales accumulate in the quantities discussed earlier, the available supply on exchanges typically shrinks. This, in turn, reduces selling pressure and positions the asset’s price for a major breakout.

This large whale activity has also been accompanied by Bitcoin ETFs, which pulled in over $740 million in inflows just yesterday.
