  • Real Vision founder: I agree with Michael Saylor's view that BTC will become the base layer of multiple assets

     Raoul Pal, former Goldman Sachs executive and founder of macro research firm Real Vision, posted on X stating: "So it looks like Michael Saylor and I have come to a consensus again. I also believe that BTC is a pristine asset. He also believes that tokenization of all assets, cultures, etc. will occur, and they are not the same as each other. Ultimately, there will be a variety of assets based on the BTC underlying layer."
  • MN Trading founder: Still satisfied with the decision to invest in altcoins, focusing on long-term investment

    Michaël van de Poppe, the founder of MN Trading, stated in a post on X that he is still satisfied with his decision to hold all altcoins. This topic has sparked a lot of criticism and feedback, which is good. Everyone has different strategies. I invest in these assets for the long term, and some have not yet yielded profits. My argument has not changed.
  • Placeholder Partner: Narrow investor attitudes swing based on the performance of the tokens they hold. To avoid this problem, you need to go long on high-quality tokens

    Placeholder partner Chris Burniske wrote in a post on X that "narrow-minded investors often behave fairly when their tokens perform well. Then, when their tokens perform relatively poorly, they remain silent or deal with it hastily...This situation is seen in every cycle. The key to avoiding this pathological situation is to go long on all high-quality tokens."
  • China and Peru agreed to strengthen cooperation in the digital economy and other fields and promote the development of exponential technologies such as AI and blockchain

    the joint statement between the People's Republic of China and the Republic of Peru on deepening their comprehensive strategic partnership states that both sides agree to strengthen cooperation in the fields of digital economy, technological innovation, digital transformation, technology personnel exchange, technology transfer, digital security, etc., and promote the development of exponential technologies such as artificial intelligence, robotics, the Internet of Things, blockchain, data analysis, nanotechnology, and telemedicine.
  • CryptoQuant founder: Meme coins currently dominate because most altcoins lack fundamental narratives

    Ki Young Ju, founder and CEO of CryptoQuant, wrote on X platform that cryptocurrency traders are like gamers, and Web3 projects are their game developers. Creating immersive experiences in Web3 is more about art than business, and for dopamine-driven individuals, making money is the ultimate game. Currently, meme coins dominate because most altcoins lack a strong fundamental narrative, but a stablecoin-driven Web3 ecosystem is emerging - this is a new genre for analytical investors, just as RPGs are different from FPSs. This future is already close, and those who are eager to delve into it and find alpha through on-chain data.
  • Court agrees to suspend appeal in Trump's classified documents case

    on the 16th local time, the United States Federal Appeals Court approved Special Prosecutor Smith's request to suspend the appeal of the case involving U.S. President-elect Trump's confidential documents. This is part of Smith's gradual end to the two cases against Trump, as the U.S. Department of Justice has long-standing policy of prohibiting criminal prosecution of a sitting president. Since Trump won the 2024 U.S. presidential election and will assume the presidency in January 2025, Smith said he requested a suspension of the appeal "so that the government has time to assess this unprecedented situation and determine the appropriate path in line with the Department of Justice's policy."
  • Economist: ETH/BTC fell to a more than two-year low after the US election, and its performance was more brutal than expected

    macroeconomist Lyn Alden stated in a post on X that "I have always been a polite long-term bearish on Ethereum, but the performance of ETH/BTC after the US presidential election is even more brutal than I expected. The new government, which is open to encrypted securities, won the election. ETH/BTC first rose and then fell, but set a new low after the good news arrived." TradingView data shows that on November 15th, less than two weeks after the election, the ETH/BTC exchange rate fell to its lowest level since March 2021 (0.033).
  • Coinbase CEO: Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to increase economic freedom in the United States

     Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong wrote on X that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is a rare opportunity to increase economic freedom in the United States and restore the health of government scale. The expansion of democratic government has brought adverse effects (by promising more free things to win elections). We need a constitutional amendment to limit total government spending (such as 10%), or find a way to coordinate incentives (Buffett once proposed that an unbalanced budget would disqualify all congressional members who voted for it from being re-elected).
  • MAS: Singapore is working on global first-tier fund tokenization regulation

    Chia Der Jiun, Managing Director of the Monetary Authority of Singapore, introduced some fund tokenization pilots at an event for asset managers. These pilots are part of the Project Guardian and MAS Global Layer 1 (GL1) tokenization plans. Chia Der Jiun emphasized the advantages of tokenization in real-time settlement and process automation, which can improve efficiency and achieve greater customization of funds. UK asset management company Schroders and fund distribution platform Calastone are exploring this as part of the Project Guardian public blockchain trial in Singapore. A recent survey by Calastone showed that 96% of asset management companies in the Asia-Pacific region plan to launch tokenized products within three years. Chia stated that as these Project Guardian pilot projects approach commercialization, MAS is working with the pilot project managers to study the legal and regulatory treatment and impact of tokenized investment funds."
