Cryptocurrency market performance today shows a clear divergence. The overall trend is a broad decline, with the RWA (Real World Assets) sector dropping nearly 5% within 24 hours, leading all major sectors. Meme and DeFi sectors also perform weakly, with investors adopting a wait-and-see attitude.

Bitcoin repeatedly fluctuated near the $91,000 mark, with minimal gains or losses over 24 hours. Ethereum fell to around $3,100, remaining under pressure. It was only after the release of US employment data that the two main cryptocurrencies experienced a short-term rebound, but the rebound was limited.

Notably, during this correction, a few tokens such as PIPPIN in the Solana, Polygon, and AI sectors bucked the trend and rose against the market, indicating that structural opportunities still exist.

Policy news is dense. The US "Clarity Act" crypto regulation framework bill is scheduled for a congressional vote on January 15. The EU's new tax reporting rules for crypto asset transfers will also officially take effect from January 1, 2026. Additionally, the market is paying attention to the US Supreme Court's latest ruling on Trump's tariffs policy, which is expected to impact liquidity and policy expectations.

On the corporate level, optimism continues. Several listed companies, including MicroStrategy, have recently increased their Bitcoin holdings, demonstrating that institutional investors maintain a long-term allocation stance. The current market sentiment is cautious, mainly digesting previous gains through technical corrections while waiting for further clarity on regulatory details and economic data.
