Founders Fund President and ETF expert Nate Geraci made a startling prediction that the newly approved universal listing standards for crypto ETFs by the SEC could become the "death knell" for digital asset treasury companies like Strategy (MSTR), Metaplanet (MTPLE), and Bitmine (BMNR). He pointed out that DATs have previously benefited mainly from regulatory arbitrage, but this advantage is fading with the arrival of the ETF era. Meanwhile, a recent report from The Wall Street Journal confirms that U.S. regulators are scrutinizing unusual trading activities of these crypto treasury companies, particularly the trading patterns before and after their cryptocurrency purchase announcements, which could trigger a deep investigation related to insider trading.

Bitcoin prices fell to $108,700 late Thursday, marking the lowest level in four months and indicating that the previous strong rise may be losing momentum. This decline occurred after Bitcoin failed to hold the critical support at $112,000. On-chain data shows that long-term Bitcoin holders have realized massive profits of 3.4 million Bitcoins, while spot ETF inflows have slowed down. This combination of concentrated profit-taking and weakened institutional demand is interpreted by analysts as a "depletion" signal following the Fed's interest rate cuts, leading market participants to prefer cashing in profits rather than increasing new positions.

The price of Ethereum (ETH) has fallen 13% from a recent high of over $4,400 and is currently testing a key support level around $3,865. Despite this drop triggering a massive liquidation wave of up to $1.06 billion (of which ETH accounted for $409 million), market dynamics are undergoing a significant shift. Large whales are reducing their holdings, while medium-sized shark investors holding 10,000 to 100,000 ETH are actively accumulating, dominating the current buying. This shift in ownership structure indicates that funds and private investment firms are replacing large institutions as the main force in the ETH market.

To accelerate the promotion of the Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) strategy and achieve the internationalization of the renminbi, the People's Bank of China (PBOC) has officially established the Digital Renminbi International Operation Center in Shanghai. This center will be responsible for the construction and operation of the cross-border payment network, blockchain services, and digital asset platform, aiming to modernize the settlement process by integrating blockchain technology and positioning the digital renminbi as a viable alternative in international trade. This initiative clearly reflects Beijing's strategic goal of reducing reliance on the US dollar and promoting the multipolarization of the global monetary system.
