Recently, after some leading exchanges announced plans to strengthen regulatory oversight of the derivatives market, the market has indeed experienced some volatile price movements. Interestingly, many market makers are observing—what level of control will this round of regulation actually impose?
To be honest, a tenfold increase in one night definitely crosses the line, but what if the price rises three times in a day and then drops 50%? The boundary starts to blur. The market needs liquidity and vitality, but also order—these two are naturally prone to conflict. Less volatility leads to criticism of lack of excitement, while too much volatility invites accusations of manipulation—playing the role of a judge is indeed a difficult position. Finding the right balance seems to be an exploration for all exchanges.

ngl this is the exact tension i've been drilling into my students lately—the regulatory goldilocks zone literally doesn't exist yet. like, exchanges are basically running blind rn trying to figure out where the line is between "healthy volatility" and "obvious manipulation" 🤷

A 3x increase in one day followed by a 50% drop— isn't that normal operation? If it wasn't for the hype, it would have faded long ago.

A 50% drop in one day, which is a 3x decline, is called "normal fluctuation"? Laughable, exchanges really know how to play with words.

It's really hard to grasp this level. A 50% drop in one day from 3x and a 10x surge are essentially the same... they're all just leek harvesting grounds.

Market makers waiting for the wind? Well, basically waiting for the rules to be set so they can continue to harvest profits.
A 50% daily rise and fall? Still asking if it's clear or not? That's just leaving room for manipulation.
I believe exchanges are torn, but if they really wanted to regulate, it's not impossible—they just don't want to.

Market makers are probably betting on the exchange's attitude right now, waiting for the policy to be finalized.

Regulation and freedom are always at odds, and this time, exchanges really can't stand their ground.

A 3x increase in one day followed by a 50% drop, to put it simply, is testing the exchange's bottom line. You need to figure it out clearly.
