Decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol Firelight has announced the launch of a new XRP staking feature, providing on-chain risk protection for DeFi protocols while offering additional returns for XRP holders. This mechanism is supported by Flare Network and developed by Sentora, aiming to enhance DeFi security and address the industry's longstanding challenges of hacks and vulnerability losses. According to the introduction, XRP users can stake their tokens on Firelight and receive tradable ERC-20 tokens called stXRP. stXRP can be used within the Flare ecosystem and also represents the user’s participation in the Firelight insurance pool, serving as a source of risk protection for DeFi protocols. In recent years, hacks have resulted in billions of dollars in losses annually, and Firelight’s insurance pool mechanism provides protocols with a form of “on-chain insurance” protection.

Odaily News In response to Arthur Hayes' doubts about USDT operations, former Citibank encryption research head Joseph stated on the X platform that @CryptoHayes' analysis missed several key points: 1. Disclosure of assets ≠ all corporate assets. USDT adopts a "matching principle" for disclosing reserves, but its undisclosed balance sheet includes equity investment income, mining operations, corporate reserves, and potential Bitcoin holdings, with remaining profits distributed to shareholders in the form of dividends. 2. Extremely high profit margins and equity value. Tether holds $120 billion in U.S. Treasury bonds (annualized 4% yield), with a projected annual net profit of about $10 billion from 2023 (with only 150 employees), making it arguably the world's most efficient money printer; equity valuation may reach $50-100 billion.

PANews reported on November 30 that the People's Bank of China recently held a meeting of the coordination mechanism for combating virtual money trading speculation. At this meeting, financial regulatory authorities defined stablecoins for the first time, clarifying that stablecoins are a form of virtual money. Currently, they cannot effectively meet the requirements for customer identification, AML, and other aspects, and there is a risk of being used for money laundering, fundraising fraud, and illegal cross-border fund transfers. The meeting reiterated the need to continue cracking down on illegal financial activities related to virtual money. However, industry insiders believe that this meeting will not affect the layout of stablecoins in Hong Kong, but speculation on stablecoins in mainland China will be severely suppressed. Moreover, relevant entities in the mainland will see their scope for future stablecoin layouts in Hong Kong shrink significantly, being more limited to practical application scenarios such as cross-border payments and supply chain finance.

Odaily News Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin stated that memes and emojis are driving the English language towards a more "pictographic" evolution. English social media has even begun to form highly abstract expressions similar to Chinese idioms.

Odaily News CBB published an article on platform X, pointing out that the project party's reasoning of "avoiding short-term flipping" to raise funds at a valuation of $1 billion while in an unlocked state is a form of "self-deception." CBB stated that the reasonable approach for an ICO should be to raise funds at a lower FDV and allocate tokens to true core users and contributors, rather than creating an overvaluation structure that causes the project to lose a healthy token circulation foundation early on.

Keone Hon, the founder of Monad, responded to Arthur Hayes' criticism by stating that Hayes did not provide specific comments and pointed out that his investment projects also have Lock-up Position tokens. He believes that the current Blockchain is still evolving and cannot be in its final form.

PANews November 26 news, analyst Murphy pointed out that based on current data observations, it is not difficult for BTC to return to $90,000, as $90,000 is not a strong resistance level. The average cost of short-term holders shows that BTC may only encounter significant selling pressure when entering the range of $92,000 to $99,000. At the same time, data from the options market shows that the Call activity at the $92,000 strike price is significantly higher than at $90,000, especially the selling Calls at $92,000 far exceed those at $90,000, which will lead to the formation of strong resistance in the market. Murphy emphasized that the key battle for BTC above $92,000 is the core area that determines the trend, especially close to the $98,000 position, which is the "fair price" line for BTC over the past decade. However, recent market confidence has been undermined due to a large amount of realized losses, making it difficult to form effective buying power in the short term. The future trend of BTC still needs to pay attention to market sentiment and resistance.

Delphi Digital analysts have analyzed the trends of BTC and believe it may form a bullish or bearish structure. A bullish scenario requires a breakout above $103,500, while a bearish scenario could form lower highs below that point.

BlockBeats news, on November 15, CryptoQuant analyst CrazzyBlockk stated that the Bitcoin market is heavily influenced by the profitability of new entrants, who represent new funds and liquidity. When this group of investors realizes profits, market confidence is strengthened, and the dynamic upward trend can continue. When short-term holders face losses of 20%-40%, it often triggers panic selling. In the past, this degree of pain marked the market entering a full capitulation phase. However, regarding the current extent of losses for this group, it is still far from a typical Bear Market signal. If new entrants can realize some profits, market support will gradually form, and this pullback is more likely to become a "mid-cycle correction" rather than the beginning of a Bear Market.
