Looking back to 2008, Morgan Stanley issued a "buy" report that wrote the most ironic footnote to the collapse of Lehman Brothers. This was not just an analytical misstep, but it revealed the original sin of Wall Street's sell-side research. (Background summary: Asia-Pacific cryptocurrency adoption report: India leads by a wide margin, Japan shows the strongest growth) (Supplementary background: Coinbase report: The crypto bull run is just beginning, with plenty of room for growth) At the high ground of the business battlefield, countless businesses have risen and fallen, but few events like the 2008 "Lehman Brothers case" have so brutally leveled the authority that Wall Street had painstakingly constructed.

Written by: Knut Svanholm Compiled by: AididiaoJP, Foresight News Original Title: The Original Sin of Poverty --- Currency is the core of the market, facilitating trade and economic accounting. Its value, or purchasing power, can be eroded by inflation, which benefits the wealthy while sacrificing the interests of savers. Nothing is more important than currency for the operation of a free market. Currency constitutes every transaction and represents the embodiment of all value in the exchange of goods and services. But what exactly is the price of currency? The goods with the highest market liquidity often become the preferred medium of exchange in society, namely currency. The prices denominated in this universal medium make economic accounting easier, allowing entrepreneurs to discover opportunities, gain profits, and promote the progress of civilization. We have understood how supply and demand determine the price of goods, but determining the price of currency is more complex. Our dilemma

> In an era where data quality is paramount, whoever can solve the problem of data value distribution will be able to attract the highest quality data resources.

> Crypto Assets themselves are not the "original sin"; the problem lies in whether the transaction process involves cross-border activities, circumvention of currency controls, anonymity, or evasion of regulation. Written by: Mankiw Introduction Since the birth of Bitcoin, its price has surged multiple times, driving a global craze for Crypto Assets. At its peak, Bitcoin broke through 100,000 dollars, and the total market value of Crypto Assets even once exceeded the global circulation of dollars. Following this, a large number of Crypto Asset trading platforms emerged, and over-the-counter trading mediated by USDT became active. Under the current policy in our country, some people use Crypto Assets for private exchange between foreign currencies and RMB, earning profits from exchange rate differences and service fees. This may seem technically harmless, but in reality, it is under severe legal pressure. Such operations may involve illegal business operations as per Article 225 of the Criminal Law, as well as money laundering as per Article 191. In this tweet, the Mankun Law Firm

introduction Western religions believe that the so-called "Original Sin" refers to the fact that Adam and Eve, the ancestors of mankind, were tempted by a snake, disobeyed God's order, and ate the forbidden fruit of the Garden of Eden. The inherent original sin is the root of all human evils and disasters. Later, the concept of "original sin" was widely used to describe some things that did more harm than good at the beginning and were not allowed by the rules. In recent years, as regulators have gradually deepened their understanding of blockchain and its derivative technologies, and Regulatory measures have become increasingly stringent, and some blockchain-derived technologies have been banned and cracked down. Among them, many private transaction tools represented by Tornado Cash have become the hardest hit areas of technological crimes in recent years. Today, Sister Sa's team will talk with you in detail about the "original sin" of privacy trading tools (or "coin mixers"). 01 ...
