I am very glad to meet CZ in Tokyo. This is his return to Japan after 7 years, and during this time, the entire industry has undergone tremendous changes.
At this event, I asked CZ a question: How do you view the on-chain of everything and the tokenization of stocks?
He replied: There have not yet been large-scale coin-stock products on the market. The possible reason is that each country and region has different policies, making it difficult for coin-stock investors to receive dividends and easily redeem stocks. There are also price differences during trading. However, projects on the chain are usually global in nature, which was a significant pain point back then.
Restrict areas or try to solve it?
But he reiterated that the trend of RWA cannot be stopped. $BNB
An 8-year veteran practitioner tells you: How to spend the industry's garbage time
The market has gradually become quiet recently. Many colleagues have expressed that they can’t see the direction clearly or are forced to be friends with time. This is actually not the first time. Looking back, since I entered the circle in 2016, I seem to have experienced four major garbage cycles. Although I often comfort myself in my heart that all this will pass, the positive cycle will come back, and liquidity will come back, but when we are really in the garbage time, we will feel more or less depressed or helpless. Winter in Zhongguancun. The first garbage time was when I entered the circle. At that time, the industry had just shifted from the cold winter of 2015 to the recovery period of 2016. OKCoin and Huobi, located in Zhongguancun, also stopped layoffs. The market was gradually recovering, and exchanges finally had positive income.

Finance internet influencer Hong Hao, today at an internal meeting in Hong Kong, said he believes the semiconductor cycle has already peaked. Although there will be a brief rebound, other markets will also fall, and he expects the market to reach a true bottom only by the end of this year.

The Korea Financial Investment Association has released the forced liquidation data for the first three days of this week.
From July 27 to 29, forced liquidations triggered by insufficient margin totaled KRW 97.984 billion, about USD 68 million. Even just on July 29 yesterday, the proportion of forced liquidations reached as high as 5%.
Although the Korean market has slightly stabilized today, many posts about people getting liquidated are spreading across the community.
Of the hottest ones, a father said that because of his greed, seeing the people around him make money trading stocks, he took the money he had saved from buying a home for 15 years and, after paying the deposit, used the remaining home-payment funds to trade stocks on leverage. As a result, he lost more than half. Now he can’t even afford to pay the remaining balance on the house.
How scary is it that AI is burning money? Meta, led by Zuckerberg, reported $31.862 billion in operating cash flow in the second quarter, but with capital expenditures as high as $31.08 billion, free cash flow was only $784 million. That compares with $8.549 billion in the same period last year.
So the market is also worried whether all this spending will be able to generate returns in the short to mid term.
It seems that the analysts who bought the dip in semiconductors last night have all been citing this report from JPMorgan.
JPMorgan believes that this drop in South Korea was first triggered by ordinary worries over fundamentals and investors taking profits. It was then amplified by leveraged ETFs, leading to a fierce deleveraging. However, after large-scale position liquidations were completed, the market’s leverage level has fallen to an acceptable range.
The brewery that, on social media, said it would give everyone free beer if Trump died has recently had its operating license revoked by the state government.
As for the brewery’s owner, he has decided to fight to the end. He says they won’t stop selling beer unless they drag me out of the bar.
Oh my God, even AI stock guru Leopold can’t handle it anymore. The Financial Times reportedly revealed that a former OpenAI researcher—who became hugely popular for writing a long research-and-investment piece—has founded a hedge fund heavily invested in AI. Its size rapidly grew from a few hundred million USD to over $20 billion.
It was also revealed that he used borrowed funds to amplify investment returns. Due to the recent sell-off in AI concept stocks, he has now started seeking to raise new capital from investors.
Still, Koreans are tough—because this round of leveraged liquidation has involved too many people. In front of Seoul’s National Assembly Building, investors placed 30 funeral wreaths, demanding that the South Korean government impose strong regulation on high leverage.
And on the wreaths, it also said, “Is investor protection just talk? Demand delisting!”
Apple surpasses a market value of 5 trillion, reclaiming the number one spot—what’s behind it
• No move into cloud computing • No burning its own AI model-building efforts • No absorbing the increased memory costs itself; instead, it raises prices for consumers • Cash on hand: $54.7 billion at the end of FY25, up to $68.5 billion in Q1 of FY26

Ah, what? OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and other companies’ 1,178 employees have issued a joint statement calling on the U.S. government to take the lead in launching international action, so that countries and AI companies worldwide can slow down their R&D progress in sync.
They believe that AI development that’s happening too quickly may ultimately outpace society’s ability to adapt, leading to uncontrollable outcomes.
However, the signatories are mainly from these three companies—people who know, know.
