BlockBeats News, December 24th, Yi Lihua, founder of Liquid Capital (formerly LD Capital), posted on social media stating, "Firmly believe that now is the best buying zone for ETH, especially bullish on the 2026 bull market, with ETH's future target exceeding $10,000. Recalling the experience of 312, before 312 when BTC was hovering between $7,000 and $8,000, I went through my first real bear market in the crypto space and couldn't hold on any longer, selling all my Bitcoin, thus successfully avoiding the 312 crash. However, it later surged all the way to $69,000, and I never bought back BTC. This is a huge failure case of missing out on tens of thousands of dollars over a few thousand dollars. This time, with the same script, we successfully exited the market and cleared positions before 1011, but this time we chose to continuously add positions and buy, because we don't want to miss out on thousands of dollars again over a few hundred dollars. Trend investing and patient waiting are now the best strategies; we know a big rally is coming, just not sure which day."

BlockBeats News, December 24: Jake Chervinsky, Chief Legal Officer at cryptocurrency venture capital firm Variant Fund, posted on social media, stating, "The debate over tokens versus equity is just beginning. Many crypto projects were born during the era of former U.S. SEC Chairman Gary Gensler, when strong regulatory pressure forced development companies to direct almost all value toward equity rather than tokens. Today, the policy environment is changing, and new opportunities are emerging. It will take considerable time and experimentation to figure out how (or whether) tokens and equity can work well together. And this round of experimentation is starting now.I don't have a specific stance on Aave's situation, but I want to emphasize one point: clarity is always paramount. Token holders must clearly understand what they actually own, what they can control, and what they cannot. The design space for token value capture is extremely vast, far greater than that of traditional equity. I believe that, for a considerable period, it is unlikely that a standardized token model will emerge like stocks. We believe tokens should carry on-chain value, while equity should carry off-chain value. The core innovation unlocked by tokens is self-sovereign ownership of digital property. Tokens enable holders to directly own and control on-chain infrastructure without relying on off-chain intermediaries.Off-chain value, however, is different. Token holders cannot directly own or control off-chain revenue or assets, so in most cases, such value should belong to equity, not tokens. Of course, other models may also work. Some projects may choose a single-asset model with no equity at all, while others may decide to treat their tokens as tokenized securities and apply new rules that the SEC may establish for this market in the future."
