Odaily Planet Daily reports that Gate’s latest “January 2026 Private Wealth Management Monthly Report” shows that the crypto market experienced a sell-off in January, with BTC and ETH falling by 10% and 18%, respectively. Amid the overall market pressure, Gate’s private wealth quantitative fund performed relatively steadily, with the USDT strategy achieving a 6.7% return over the past year. The report indicates that the interstellar hedge (USDT) strategy performed the best with a 5.0% monthly annualized return, while Quantum Leap (USDT) and Interstellar Hedge (USDT) achieved a 100% monthly win rate since inception. The annualized return of the top 30% portfolio in January reached 4.5%, significantly outperforming Bitcoin and U.S. Treasury yields.
Overall, Walsh’s appointment is not enough to be interpreted as a comprehensive tightening of monetary policy, and the market consensus still expects two rate cuts this year. Although adjustments in monetary policy expectations and phased selling pressure have increased market volatility, historical data suggests that the current phase is more likely a consolidation stage, with long-term structural trends still holding development potential.
