Next news:Stocks tied to Chinese markets fell sharply on Tuesday after Beijing decided to hold off on new stimulus measures aimed at supporting the economy. QCP Capital analysts view this downturn as a potential opportunity for capital reallocation into the cryptocurrency market. During the Asian trading session, Chinese companies that traded on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong, including Alibaba Group and JD.com, experienced significant declines. The MSCI AC Asia Pacific equity index recorded its largest drop in a month, while Hong Kong equities faced their steepest single-day loss since 2008. Additionally, the CBOE Volatility Index surged, reflecting increased market uncertainty. However, expectations in the crypto derivatives market for future
bitcoin price swings are currently lower than recent actual volatility. Today's market decline comes after almost two weeks of China-related stock gains after Beijing announced a series of economic stimulus measures. The People’s Bank of China Governor emphasized that these efforts aim to stimulate domestic demand and financial markets, boosting investor confidence. In the past 24 hours, gold increased, while
bitcoin traded flat.
Next news:Wu has learned that Crypto.com has filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Crypto.com stated that this lawsuit against the SEC was initiated after receiving a Wells notice from the Commission's staff. This notice indicates that while both parties have expressed that the next administration will adopt a more constructive and effective approach to promote the development of cryptocurrency technology in the U.S., the SEC's unauthorized and unjust enforcement actions continue. Currently, the SEC's improper enforcement actions have become a part of the challenges faced by legitimate and licensed cryptocurrency businesses operating in the U.S. Crypto.com believes that the SEC has unilaterally expanded its statutory authority and also contends that the SEC has established an unlawful rule that considers almost all cryptocurrency transactions as securities transactions, regardless of how they are sold, while similar transactions in
Bitcoin (
$BTC) and
Ethereum (
$ETH) are exempt from this classification. This illegal rule was never subjected to the notice and comment period required by the Administrative Procedure Act, and the agency's application of this rule has been arbitrary and capricious, especially when the characteristics of these cryptocurrency assets are nearly identical to those of
$BTC and
$ETH and are sold in the same manner.
Next news:Meredith L Patterson, the widow of Len Sassaman, denied speculation that Len Sassaman was Satoshi Nakamoto in an interview with DL News. Patterson stated that HBO did not contact her while filming the documentary. Satoshi Nakamoto disappeared in 2011, and Sassaman passed away in the same year, a coincidence that led some to question their identity. Patterson mentioned that some technical errors in Sassaman's early designs and details such as his use of the Mac system do not align with the characteristics of Satoshi Nakamoto.

Initially, a stablecoin issuance system pegged to the Korean won will be established, which will gradually expand to include stablecoins pegged to foreign currencies.
Next news:A U.S. bankruptcy judge has approved FTX's reorganization plan, allowing for the distribution of funds to creditors. The plan ensures that 98% of creditors will receive at least 118% of their claim value in cash. However, there were objections to the plan, with some creditors advocating for payouts in cryptocurrencies instead of cash. The judge rejected the proposal for in-kind distributions and reaffirmed that the value of FTT, the native token of the exchange, is zero. The possibility of a reboot of FTX, known as 'FTX 2.0,' was ruled out as no investors were ready to commit capital. FTX filed for bankruptcy in 2022, and its CEO, Sam Bankman-Fried, was found guilty of wire fraud and conspiracy to commit wire fraud.
