I just saw the work report from the Supreme People's Court, and their stance on virtual currency money laundering and capital flight is indeed very firm. During the National People's Congress in March, President Zhang Jun directly named these issues, stating that crimes involving money laundering and capital flight through virtual currencies should be punished according to law. This isn't the first time they've mentioned it, but the level of emphasis this time is clearly different.
I notice that this reflects the formation of a comprehensive crackdown system. From policies banning such activit

Recently, I looked at some market analyses, and the stock market volatility hit a new one-year high; this signal is quite interesting. Many analysts are discussing whether this might indicate that Bitcoin has bottomed out.
I previously read a few related market observations, all emphasizing that a surge in volatility is usually accompanied by market panic. But from another perspective, extreme volatility is often also a sign of a turning point. When traditional financial markets experience intense fluctuations, the crypto market's reaction is often very sensitive.
However, these are just surfa

Looking at XRP's recent trend, it has broken out of the early downward trend line, although the current price is around $1.36, this breakout signal is quite clear. The trading volume has significantly increased, clearly indicating that the bulls are re-entering the market.
Interestingly, the flow of funds is a bit complicated. On one hand, XRP ETFs in the U.S. are experiencing outflows, but on the other hand, the daily average number of transactions on the XRP ledger has surged to a high of 2.7 million, mainly driven by projects involved in tokenizing real assets. From another perspective, if

I recently observed an interesting phenomenon in the crypto market, with whale trading patterns fully exposed. During Iran's panic sell-off last week, large holders were aggressively accumulating at the bottom, then turning around and selling when Bitcoin rebounded to $74,000, making quick profits. Meanwhile, retail investors cheered as prices bounced back, following the trend to buy in, while whales quietly offloaded their holdings in the background—this routine happens every time.
According to on-chain data, wallets holding between 10 and 10,000 Bitcoins accumulated heavily during Iran's mos

Recently looked at Bitcoin price trends and found that some technical indicators are still a bit weak. Although everyone is saying that $70k is an important support level, on-chain data and some other indicators don't seem that optimistic.
Currently, Bitcoin is trading around $72.99k, and the gains are decent, but upon closer inspection, trading volume and holding data are not showing particularly strong performance. This makes me a bit worried; without new buying interest, it might be difficult to break through higher resistance levels.
Honestly, this wave of Bitcoin dollar price action looks

I've just noticed some interesting developments in the stablecoin sector these days. Circle's CRCL stock price plummeted 20% on Tuesday, seemingly because of a new crypto law that restricts stablecoin yields, but some analysts have proposed a more intriguing perspective — that this could actually be beneficial for Circle in the long run.
The core issue lies in the current distribution model. Coinbase earns a significant portion of revenue from USDC, the dollar-pegged stablecoin issued by Circle, through agreements with Circle. It’s estimated that Circle pays Coinbase over $900 million annually

Recently, I noticed a pretty interesting trend—Litecoin, Solana, and XRP are all pushing forward with ETF applications. This reflects the broader trend of crypto assets gradually integrating into the traditional financial system. However, many people still don’t quite understand what an ETF is or what it actually represents.
To clarify, an ETF is strictly not a coin but a type of exchange-traded fund. Simply put: it’s listed on a stock exchange, and you can buy and sell it just like stocks. But it tracks a certain asset or a basket of assets—such as gold, stock indices, or cryptocurrencies. Cr

Recently, I’ve been studying how exchanges operate and found that the role of market makers is really fascinating. This isn’t a new concept; people have been doing this at the London Stock Exchange for hundreds of years. In the 18th century, traders started providing bid and ask quotes on the exchange to supply liquidity to the market. Different regions call market makers by different names—on the NYSE, they’re called Specialists, while in Hong Kong, they’re referred to as Dealers.
So, how do market makers actually make money? Essentially, it’s through the bid-ask spread. Market makers post bo

I recently came across a quite shocking geopolitical analysis that I can't help but share.
From last January when Maduro was directly taken by U.S. special forces, to the end of February this year when Iran’s top leader was killed in an airstrike, and to Syria transforming from a sanctioned country into an investment destination—these three fronts seem disparate but actually reveal the same logic: Trump is turning foreign policy into a corporate acquisition.
Let's start with Venezuela. The U.S. isn’t engaging in traditional regime change; instead, it’s directly controlling a country’s resource

Recently, I've been experimenting with various account verification methods and found that choosing the right SMS platform can really save a lot of trouble. I've run into many pitfalls before—some platforms simply don't receive messages, others have ridiculous delays—and only after some trial and error did I figure out which ones are reliable.
Honestly, sometimes you just need a temporary phone number to register for overseas websites or test APIs. Buying a new SIM card isn't practical, so virtual numbers for receiving SMS become the easiest solution. These SMS platforms are basically services

I've been experimenting with various verification code reception services lately and found there are quite a few pitfalls. Many times, when registering for overseas websites or testing APIs, a phone number is required. Buying new SIM cards is too cumbersome, so SMS reception platforms come in handy. Basically, it's renting a virtual phone number to receive verification codes, which protects privacy and makes testing easier.
I've used several platforms myself—some fail to receive messages, others have delays of half a day, so I've encountered quite a few issues. Later, I summarized a few good o

Recently, I came across the story of Shen Yu again, and every time I do, I feel that his journey is truly worth pondering. From an ordinary engineering student to a legend in the crypto world, then nearly losing everything, and finally making a comeback—there's so much to reflect on in this process.
Speaking of which, Shen Yu's initial contact with Bitcoin was purely accidental. At the time, he was studying Communications Engineering at Beijing University of Chemical Technology. At 21 years old, he happened to see a report about Bitcoin in the library and dove right in. He spent every day on f

I noticed an interesting phenomenon: the crypto market has indeed been heating up recently. On one hand, Trump has been continuously sending friendly signals toward cryptocurrencies, claiming that he has done the most to support the industry, which has had a noticeable positive impact on market sentiment. On the other hand, investors are voting with real money, and projects related to Bitcoin are also experiencing hot funding rounds.
Particularly noteworthy is the recent activity of the Bitcoin Hyper project. They have quite ambitious plans; their core idea is to combine Bitcoin’s security wit

I recently noticed an interesting phenomenon—the recent rally in the silver market has been quite remarkable. Silver has been on the rise since last year, and at the beginning of this year, it has surged even more, breaking through $100 per ounce some time ago. This is like a gift from the sky for silver producers and related investors.
Recently, international financial media published a list of severely undervalued silver mining stocks, among which one company caught my attention—Silver Will Mining Corporation. This Canadian mining company mainly operates mining projects in China, Canada, and

Just saw a large transfer on Ethena, 3849.99 ETH moved to Copper. This transfer is worth approximately $8.62 million. According to on-chain data, the transfer occurred around 5 PM. As a crypto asset management platform, such large deposits usually indicate fund rebalancing. The flow of funds within the Ethereum ecosystem has been quite active these days, so it’s worth keeping an eye on the subsequent developments.
