Today I saw that the German payment provider DECTA mentioned that with the full implementation of the European "Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation" (MiCA) in 2026, the euro-pegged stablecoin market may face a critical turning point.
I can't help but feel that euro stablecoins have been really stifled in recent years. It's not that they can't be developed; it's that there's nowhere to use them. Banks are hesitant to adopt, payment institutions dare not touch them, and project teams spend every day drawing cross-border payment plans in PPTs, while in reality, even exchanging euros isn't smooth.

The U.S. Congress is urging the SEC to include cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin in 401(k) retirement plans.
It's important to note that 401(k) is America's most conservative and mainstream retirement tool, where people save a little, and companies contribute a bit, expecting more pension benefits in the future. Now, some are suggesting that retirement funds could also allocate some assets to Bitcoin and other digital assets.
The legislators pushing this matter have written a letter to SEC Chairman Paul Atkins, emphasizing that current securities regulations are outdated and overly restrictive, wh

Breaking: The Trump Gold Card has officially gone on sale, and the U.S. government will begin accepting applications from December 10. Personal applicants need to invest $1 million, businesses $2 million, plus a $15,000 processing fee, and there is also an announcement of a $5 million Platinum Card.
There are several noteworthy points about this so-called Trump Gold Card and Platinum Card plan:
1. Regardless of the name, the core logic is quite simple: exchange higher amounts for faster, more direct U.S. residency. The amounts are higher than traditional EB-5 investments and offer quicker proc

UK FCA Moves to Overhaul Investment Environment
The UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has released a set of new discussion and consultation papers, claiming to enhance investment culture, but in reality, it's restructuring the UK's crypto investment system.
The FCA is one of the highest-level financial regulatory bodies in the UK, directly overseeing financial markets, investment products, and the conduct of licensed institutions. It sits at the top of the regulatory framework in the UK's financial system, with all enterprises involved in financial services falling under its watch.

Italy Launches Comprehensive Crypto Risk Review: A New Era of Global Regulatory Alignment
Italy’s Ministry of Economy and Finance has taken the initiative to conduct a systematic assessment of the risks faced by domestic retail investors in the crypto sector.
Leading the effort is the Macroprudential Policy Committee, comprised of the central bank governor, insurance and pension regulators, and senior officials from the finance ministry—essentially, a full national risk radar.
Their conclusion is straightforward: as the interconnection between crypto assets and traditional finance deepens, and

Is anyone interested in claiming this unowned asset together 😂

Malaysia’s crackdown on illegal mining has escalated—crypto miners stealing electricity have even resorted to using bird sounds to mask their operations.
Recently, Malaysia has ramped up enforcement against illegal Bitcoin mining, shifting from routine law enforcement to a full-scale crackdown.
The reason is simple: according to official data, electricity theft for mining has caused nearly $1 billion in losses over the past few years. Power authorities, grid companies, and energy regulators have all been forced to act together.
This time, the operation is clearly not the old approach of just k

Key Data Missing, ADP to Set the Tone for Tonight's Market Sentiment
The US November ADP Non-Farm Employment Change will be released tonight at 21:15, and this data carries much more weight than usual.
Next week is the Fed’s FOMC meeting, but both the official non-farm payroll and inflation data are missing this time, essentially turning off the two most important guiding lights for the market.
In this information vacuum, the ADP report has almost become the Fed’s only window into the labor market's temperature, so the market can only focus closely on this single indicator to speculate about n

The FDIC in the United States will launch a regulatory proposal for stablecoins, marking the entry of the crypto market into a formal era.
The U.S. regulators have really started to take action this time. FDIC Acting Chairman Travis Hill explicitly stated in his congressional testimony that the first batch of regulatory proposals for stablecoin issuers will be launched in December, which is a key step for the implementation of the GENIUS Act.
In the future, if you want to issue stablecoins, you must go through the formal federal approval process, rather than randomly opening a company and clai

HashKey through hearing: encryption regular army formally knocks on the mainstream Capital Market
HashKey Holdings Limited, registered in the Cayman Islands and deeply rooted in Hong Kong for a long time, has passed the hearing of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Behind it are traditional financial giants such as JPMorgan, Cathay Securities, and Guotai Junan International serving as sponsors. This lineup itself indicates one thing: the regular army of the encryption industry is truly entering the sight of mainstream finance.
The information set after the hearing has been released, but from the co

The Central Bank convened a conference again this time to name Virtual Money, with a high standard: the Public Security, the Cyberspace Administration, the Supreme Court, and the Supreme Procuratorate all attended.
The core idea is actually very straightforward. Recently, the market has gained momentum, speculation has risen, funds are in disarray, and there have been more illegal incidents. Therefore, regulators need to clarify their stance once again. The domestic policy on Virtual Money remains prohibitive and has not changed, nor will it suddenly shift.
This time, stablecoins were specific

MemeMax has recently become quite popular in the community, not because it released a new Meme, but because it is clearly attempting to reorganize the entire Meme ecosystem.
To be honest, everyone understands the current Meme market: rush to run, pre-embed, black pressure, instant rise and instant smash, newcomers rely on luck, while old players rely on reflexes. The entire ecosystem looks lively, but in reality, it is a complete mess.
Many projects cool down in less than three days; it's not about Meme, it's about life. What MemeMax is doing is quite straightforward. It aims to reduce

WEMADE collaborates with CertiK to promote the globalization of the Korean won stablecoin.
Today, WEMADE officially launched the Global Korean Won Stablecoin Alliance GAKS in Singapore in collaboration with industry giants such as CertiK, Chainalysis, and SentBe.
It's not just about issuing a stablecoin; it's about directly launching a dedicated mainnet, StableNet, that covers the entire process from issuance, auditing, and regulation to cross-border payments.
CertiK conducts security audits, node verification, and on-chain monitoring, essentially taking over the underlying security of

Australia Takes Action: The Encryption Industry Moves from Wild Paths to Financial-Level Regulation
If you've been in the mixed chain for a while, you must know that Australia's regulations have been more talk than action for many years. As a result, this week, Treasurer Jim Chalmers and Minister for Financial Services Daniel Mulino directly presented a "2025 Digital Asset Framework Bill" to Parliament, clearly indicating a readiness for long-term governance.
This core change consists of three points:
1. Bring cryptocurrency exchanges and custodial services into the financial services

Robinhood has teamed up with the quantitative giant SIG (Susquehanna International Group) to prepare to establish a new futures and derivatives trading exchange, and they will also handle clearing themselves.
According to official statements, the joint venture Robinhood is the major shareholder and will also purchase MIAXdx (a CFTC-authorized futures exchange) along with the clearinghouse and swap execution facility held by MIAX. MIAX itself will retain a 10% equity stake. SIG will be responsible for supporting the market on the opening day, and in the future, more liquidity partners will be i

The Japan FSA is going to take action again.
The Japanese regulatory authorities have sent another signal that in the future, cryptocurrency exchanges cannot just say that our assets are safe; they must also prepare a reserve fund of real cash for compensation. If something goes wrong, you need to be able to pay up.
Although Japan has long required exchanges to keep users' coins in cold wallets, it has not specifically required them to set aside a sum of money to deal with unexpected losses from hacks, system failures, and other incidents. In the past, everyone assumed they would deal with

The South Korean exchange faces a significant test, as the FIU strikes hard, imposing severe penalties that are almost certain.
In the past year, South Korean regulators have tightened their grip on virtual asset exchanges, and now they are finally entering a stage of intensive implementation.
FIU has already taken action against Dunamu, and next in line are Korbit, GOPAX, Bithumb, and Coinone for penalties. According to the current progress, most of the penalties seem to be delayed until the first half of next year.
The focus of this regulation is actually not complicated: How well is KYC don

Recently, watching the speeches of several Federal Reserve officials, there is a subtle feeling that whether to cut interest rates or not is no longer mainly an economic issue, but rather a concern that a small misstep might scare the market to death.
Lisa Cook was very straightforward this time, saying that private credit is growing too fast, hedge funds are playing too aggressively in the Treasury market, and AI is bouncing around in trading, all making the financial system appear more fragile than expected.
She even hinted that if asset prices suddenly collapse, she wouldn't be surprised at
