The "Stablecoin Double Storm Eye" Between Hong Kong and the Mainland
In recent days, everyone should have seen the discussions about "Hong Kong plans to delist USDT, and the Mainland's zero-tolerance policy on stablecoins": On one side, the Mainland has cracked down on over 300 stablecoin-related cases from January to October, intercepting more than 12,000 suspicious transactions, essentially sealing off the channel for using stablecoins for cross-border money laundering;
On the other side, Hong Kong is considering gradually replacing the existing USDT under a locally licensed stablecoin framework, shifting towards a more easily regulated issuance model.
Despite being stablecoins, their fates are completely different in different regions: Some see it as payment infrastructure, while others view it as a financial security risk. This game over "who gets to define money" is far from over.
CZ wants to turn the United States into the "Capital of Crypto"
The story here is quite eye-catching: during a media interview, CZ said: After receiving a presidential pardon from the United States, he plans to help the U.S. regain its leadership in the digital asset space, hoping to make the United States a true "global crypto capital."
There are several key points behind this statement:
On one hand, Binance's layout in the U.S. market may accelerate again under a compliance framework;
On the other hand, the internal attitude towards crypto in the U.S. is wavering between "regulatory risk" and "innovation opportunities."
If we were to write the past few years of the crypto industry as a series, this segment could probably be titled—— "From the besieged exchange founder to stepping back into the spotlight." #圈内人物故事
If the past few years of the cryptocurrency industry were made into a drama, this Binance Blockchain Week in Dubai could be seen as the opening of a new season:
The main storyline of the previous season revolved around exchange upheavals, regulatory events, and the switching between bull and bear markets; This season's protagonists have changed to 'nations, institutions, and compliant Web3'.
On the same stage, you can see:
Officials discussing the 'digital economy national strategy';
Fund managers coming from the traditional financial world;
Entrepreneurs who still insist on developing products on public chains, L2, and stablecoins.
Everyone's common question has become:
"If digital assets are really going to mainstream in the next ten years, what will they look like?"
The story is still being written, but one thing is certain — The era solely relying on emotions and FOMO is slowly fading away. #迪拜币安区块链周
《From 'Rejecting Cryptocurrency' to Open Trading: Vanguard's Change of Attitude》
A few years ago, the asset management giant Vanguard, which firmly advised clients to stay away from cryptocurrency assets, has recently shown a clear shift in attitude: it has started to allow clients to trade multiple ETFs related to cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, opening a new compliant entry point for traditional funds to enter the cryptocurrency market.
Around the same time, the President of Poland vetoed a crypto regulation bill that was deemed too harsh, citing concerns that it would impose excessive restrictions on innovation and civil rights. Yahoo Finance
One is a traditional financial giant gradually "softening" its stance, and the other is the regulatory side trying to find a balance between "protecting investors" and "encouraging innovation". These seemingly dull news items are actually gradually changing the trajectory of the cryptocurrency industry for the next decade.
Topic institutional treasury cooling: November digital asset Treasury inflow hits recent low
A data commentary from Binance shows that in November 2025, corporate treasuries holding digital assets recorded the weakest net inflow level since this cycle, significantly lower than the pace of previous months, interpreted as some institutions choosing to wait and slow down allocation at high levels.
This does not mean institutions are 'bearish on crypto'; rather, it resembles a 'capital digestion period' following a rapid rise:
Newly incoming funds are slowing down
Old funds are more concerned with strategy and execution quality
For ordinary investors, this can be understood as: the market is shifting from 'emotion-driven' to a phase of 'more selective projects, focusing on fundamentals and compliance,' where the cost-effectiveness of blindly following hot trends is decreasing. #Institutional funds #CryptoTreasury #Capital flow To: #BTCvsGold The battle has begun, Binance Square launches interactive activities
Today, the community also has a topic suitable for content creators to participate in: Binance has initiated the '#BTCvsGold' content activity in Square, inviting users to discuss 'Bitcoin vs Tokenized Gold' and has set up a 1,000 USDC reward pool to encourage quality content participation.
On one side is BTC, regarded as 'digital gold', and on the other side is the tokenized form of real gold assets. This topic itself carries discussion potential: anti-inflation, risk aversion attributes, volatility, liquidity, regulatory environment... can all be approached from different angles.
For content creators, this is a great opportunity to express views and simultaneously enhance exposure. Before participating, remember to take a look at the activity rules and topic tag requirements.
Today's hot topic on Binance Square #加密市场回调 actually reflects a normal correction after a rapid upward surge. Bitcoin has seen an expanded short-term decline after reaching a new high, leading Ethereum and mainstream altcoins to collectively retreat, causing the overall market value to shrink significantly in a short period. Leverage funds have been concentrated and liquidated, and the sentiment has quickly shifted from 'only discussing the bull market' to 'first, protect profits.' This round of correction has roughly three reasons: first, the macro environment has turned cautious, global risk assets are generally under pressure, and funds are retreating from high-risk markets; second, the previous increase was too large, the technical indicators have clearly shown overbought conditions, and some institutions have taken profits at high levels, actively creating a 'healthy reshuffle'; third, leverage in the contract market has accumulated for a long time, and once prices turn around, it will amplify declines, triggering a chain of liquidations and further increasing volatility. For ordinary investors, the more important question is not 'why is the market falling,' but 'what should I do?' If you are optimistic in the long term and have a reasonable position, this type of 10%-30% fluctuation is mostly just a 'halftime break' in a bull market; but if you are fully invested and frequently chase highs and cut losses, every correction could turn into a disaster for your account. A correction is not the end of the bull market, but rather a process of chip turnover. Whether you can hold onto your chips and optimize your position structure during fluctuations is more important than staring at the charts.

I have to say, recently my performance has been online, and I have grasped several key turning points of Ethereum, with a perfect rhythm of shorting first and then going long.
