Many readers interpreted the message as a broader caution about the rapid development of advanced AI systems.

This configuration, based on on-chain data, raises questions about the real state of the market and the position of bitcoin in its current phase.

For years, Bitcoin has been sold as an escape route. A rare asset, outside central banks, supposed to shine when the rest trembles.

Central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) are moving closer to reality across much of the world. Policymakers often present them as faster and more efficient tools for payments and cross-border transfers. Yet billionaire investor and founder of Bridgewater Associates, Ray Dalio, argues that control remains at stake with such systems.

Bitcoin and the broader crypto market posted modest gains over the past 24 hours, even as fresh U.S. labor data complicated expectations for near-term rate cuts. January’s jobs report showed that hiring remained firm, but growth across several sectors appeared restrained. Markets had hoped for weaker data to strengthen the case for monetary easing.
