Written by: Lawyer Liu Honglin 01 Key Summary: The Infrastructure Moment of Digital Dollar 2025 is not only the year for Circle Internet Group, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as "Circle" or "the Company") to complete its capitalization on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), but also a critical turning point in its business narrative from a single "stablecoin issuer" to a "Financial Infrastructure Economic Operating System" (Economic OS) on a global scale. As the global regulatory framework—especially the full implementation of the EU MiCA regulation and the signing of the US "GENIUS Act"—takes shape, the digital asset industry is undergoing intense pain and rebirth, transitioning from wild growth to compliance and institutionalization. Against this grand historical backdrop, Circle, with its years of坚持全额储

The Zcash (ZEC) price has had a wild few months. After topping out in the $700–$750 zone, ZEC sold off hard and lost roughly half its value, sliding all the way down to the $300 area.

Author: imToken Objectively speaking, for Crypto/Web3, 2025 will definitely be the most transformative year in the past decade. If the past ten years have been the "wild growth" of the crypto industry on the fringes of mainstream finance, then 2025 marks the first year of this species' official "legalization evolution": From stablecoins to RWA, from policy U-turns in Washington to regulatory frameworks in Hong Kong and the EU, the global regulatory logic is undergoing an epic paradigm shift. 1. United States: Crypto Enters a Period of Institutional Recognition For a considerable period, US regulation of the crypto industry has resembled a tug-of-war lacking consensus. Among them, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under Gary Gensler has been particularly active, frequently using enforcement actions to define the legal boundaries of crypto assets, filing lawsuits,

Author: Nancy, PANews The curtain of 2025 gradually falls. Looking back on this year, the crypto world has undoubtedly reached a watershed moment. The industry has officially bid farewell to the wild gold rush era of the past, shedding T-shirts for suits, and opening the door to mainstream financial institutions. In this annual exam of moving from crypto to the mainstream world, PANews reviews the annual responses of 11 leading projects, covering tracks such as public chains, DeFi, stablecoins, cross-chain, and AI. These projects are no longer merely engaged in an arms race based on performance metrics but are collectively shifting towards compliance, practicality, and large-scale development. However, the completion of infrastructure has not yet directly led to a booming proliferation of crypto applications. The industry still faces issues such as homogenization and internal competition, difficulty in capturing value, and insufficient product-market fit. Looking ahead to 2026, these projects are focusing on integrating liquidity, breaking through scenarios to reach wider audiences, and developing sustainable economic models.

Author: Nikka, WolfDAO At the beginning of 2025, the Bitcoin (BTC) market was filled with wild optimism, with institutions and analysts collectively betting that the year-end price would soar above $150,000, possibly heading towards $200,000+ or higher. However, reality played out a "counter" drama: BTC plummeted over 33% from its peak of approximately $126,000 in early October, entered a "bloodbath" mode in November (a 28% decline in a single month), and as of December 10th, the current price stabilizes around the $92,000 range. This collective crash warrants an in-depth review: Why were the early predictions so consistent? Why did almost all mainstream institutions get it wrong? 1. Early Predictions vs. Current Situation 1.1 The Three Pillars of Market Consensus At the beginning of 2025, the Bitcoin market was infused with unprecedented optimism. Almost all mainstream institutions

Imagine unboxing your new Xiaomi phone, firing up the camera for that perfect sunset shot, and—bam—right there in your app drawer is a crypto wallet. Not some clunky add-on you have to hunt for in the Play Store, but baked in like your weather app or calculator.

TradFi, the old money of Wall Street, finally stops pretending. In the past few years, they have been criticizing DeFi as the “Wild West,” while secretly researching blockchain technology. Now, the time for a showdown has come — they admit that “tokenized US stocks” is the future, but the premise is: this future must be dominated by them. On December 4th, major US market maker Citadel Securities submitted a 13-page letter to the SEC, with a stance so firm that it can be called a “declaration of war” against the existing DeFi model. Meanwhile, HSBC’s latest research report also resonated in silence, pointing out the ultimate direction of regulation. The core underlying message of these two documents is astonishingly consistent: blockchain technology is good, and we all want to use it; but the “decentralized” approach of DeFi must be “redefined.”

In the hardcore world of cryptocurrency, built on geek code and financial gamesmanship, women have never been mere supporting characters. When we talk about Web3’s “power rankings,” Binance’s “Queen” Yi He has set the bar for exchange marketing with her decisive execution and brand-building prowess; Bitget’s Gracy Chen, with her global vision and management wisdom, demonstrates to the world the pioneering capabilities of a female CEO; within Huobi HTX’s community culture, spokesperson Molly has long served as a spiritual icon and connector, uniting countless new and old users with her unique charisma. These names prove that in the wild jungle of Web3, female power is not only a gentle seasoning, but can also be the key variable that decides victory. It is against this industry backdrop that the conclusion of the third “Huobi Queen” event takes on greater significance. If outsiders still see it as a simple “beauty contest,” that would be...

Kevin Hassett may become the next Federal Reserve Chairman, and it is predicted that he will accelerate interest rate cuts and resume quantitative easing policies.

Bitcoin has fallen nearly 30% from its historic high to $90,000, but Privacy Coins have surged against the trend, with Zcash's market capitalization skyrocketing from $800 million on August 10 to over $7 billion at the beginning of November. This wave of increase occurred against a backdrop of unprecedented regulatory pressure: nearly 60 Privacy Coins will be delisted from Centralized Exchanges in 2024, the EU will ban licensed platforms from using Privacy Coins by 2027, and the FATF continues to push for AML regulations.

Original Author: Liu Honglin Event Summary On November 7, 2025, the Eastern Magistrates' Court in Hong Kong ruled that financial influencer Zhou Baixian (formerly known as Zhou Jianxi) was guilty of providing investment advice in a paid Telegram group without a license, sentencing him to six weeks in prison and bearing the costs of the Securities and Futures Commission's investigation. This case marks the first instance in Hong Kong of criminal liability being imposed on unlicensed financial influencers, signaling the end of the "wild growth" era of investment consulting on social media. The judgment in this case is based on the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Ordinance, and Zhou Boxian's behavior of "providing advice on securities" falls under the regulated activities of Class 4, which requires prior licensing from the Securities and Futures Commission. There are three key points for the conduct assessment: Profitability: Aiming for profit, the charging model (such as subscription fees) constitutes a commercial activity directly. Sustainability: Regularly publish analyses and respond to specific issues; Targeted: Provide clear recommendations for specific securities (such as NASDAQ stocks), going beyond "

Author: Alex If you stand on the streets of Buenos Aires or the electronics markets in Lagos, you'll notice a peculiar phenomenon: locals' confidence in their national currencies has plummeted to freezing point, and the app showing their USDT or USDC balances on their phones has become the last line of defense for their assets. Meanwhile, financial elites around the world are watching the thrilling candlestick charts on their screens—not Bitcoin's wild swings, but the stablecoins, claimed to "always equal 1 USD," suddenly collapsing to zero. This is the true picture of the stablecoin market in 2025: extreme prosperity coexist with extreme fragility. According to statistics, the total on-chain settlement volume of stablecoins in 2024 surpassed $27 trillion, a figure that even exceeds the combined total of Visa and Mastercard. Stablecoins are no longer just an accessory to cryptocurrency trading; they have quietly become the global financial backbone.

As Bitcoin consolidates below $100,000, large whales on Hyperliquid are betting on further declines amid rising retail panic and market uncertainty. Data indicates a significant shift in sentiment, with substantial ETF outflows contributing to a pressured crypto market.

On March 6 this year, Trump signed an executive order announcing the establishment of a "strategic Bitcoin reserve," stating that the U.S. government would not sell the approximately 200,000 Bitcoins it already holds and would continue to increase its holdings in a "budget-neutral" manner. On July 18, he signed the "Genius Act," establishing regulatory rules for stablecoins pegged to the U.S. dollar. Meanwhile, Hong Kong's "Stablecoin Ordinance" officially came into effect on August 1, establishing a framework for licensing, reserve regulation, and redemption guarantees. The cryptocurrency industry, which has been born for 16 years, has quietly grown into a massive industry with a total market value of over $3.5 trillion due to its decentralized nature, long residing in the "wild west" where national power is difficult to reach. Now, with the intensive introduction of regulations, it marks that this industry is being incorporated into the mainstream financial order. The ideological thread running through cryptocurrency has two strands: one originates from the "cypherpunk movement" of the 1990s, advocating for privacy and freedom through cryptographic technology. The other stems from economic thought.

Article by: Han Yang MasterPa I woke up early and saw the news that a cooling tower at a nuclear power plant in Tennessee had been blown up. The cover photo looked familiar, so I clicked in and realized it was from last year. It was a rainy morning when Shen and I drove over an hour from Nashville to get there. There was nothing on the road but deer and wild turkeys until we parked at the entrance, when suddenly a group of tall men surrounded us—because nearby was a private prison, and the main gate faced the nuclear power plant. From the moment we entered, these guys kept an eye on us, adding a splash of color to their boring morning. The permanently vanished cooling tower Like many stereotypical North American stories, the big guys were relieved to see two Asians. After telling us not to fly drones or take photos, they were distracted by the next alarm and walked away. So this abandoned nuclear plant and cooling tower are among the few buildings we only took photos of and didn’t model. But honestly, modeling it with drones would be tough—it’s just too big.
