$USDC

Recently, USDC (USD Coin) has shown dynamics as a mainstream stablecoin in multiple areas. First, the U.S. SEC released regulatory guidelines for stablecoins, clearly categorizing USDC as a 'regulated stablecoin', recognizing its compliance and the 1:1 peg mechanism with the US dollar, which enhances market confidence. Second, USDC issuer Circle plans to go public on the NYSE in May 2025 (ticker CRCL), further promoting its mainstream progress and potentially expanding the stablecoin market size. Additionally, USDC Treasury destroyed 150 million USDC on April 5, showing its proactive management of circulation to maintain stability. The decentralized platform Maple Finance also launched a $500,000 USDC incentive program to encourage users to hold long-term and enhance capital stickiness, promoting the development of the on-chain asset management ecosystem. Although Ripple's proposal to acquire Circle was rejected, the price of USDC remains stable and is not significantly affected. Currently, the exchange rate of USDC to Chinese Yuan is stable at ¥7.28, with a circulation of 61.5 billion coins and a total market capitalization of approximately 447.7 billion Yuan. While short-term trading volume has decreased by 16.49%, it is still regarded as a core asset in the DeFi space in the long term.

#欧盟隐私币禁令

As of May 2025, the EU has not explicitly implemented a "privacy coin ban," but has strengthened the regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies through the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA). MiCA requires Crypto Asset Service Providers (CASP) to comply with strict Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) rules, prohibits anonymous transactions, and mandates transparency of transaction information. Privacy coins (such as Monero, Zcash, etc.) may be deemed non-compliant due to their anonymous nature, indirectly limiting their circulation in the EU market. Additionally, MiCA imposes restrictions on the payment use of stablecoins, allowing only euro stablecoins for everyday transactions, further constraining the legitimate use of privacy coins. The EU is gradually excluding privacy coins from the mainstream financial system through technical standards and regulatory coordination to maintain financial security and monetary sovereignty.

$BTC

As of May 3, 2025, Bitcoin ($BTC ) has experienced significant price fluctuations recently, influenced by multiple macro and market factors. Standard Chartered Bank noted that Bitcoin, as a tool for hedging tariff risks, may rebound to the $84,000 level in the short term, but currently affected by Trump's trade policies, the price briefly fell below $74,500, hitting a five-month low. In terms of market structure, the miner cost range ($60,000–$65,000) constitutes a key support, while around $87,000 forms a strong resistance level, which has been breached multiple times unsuccessfully.

Regarding institutional movements, spot ETFs continue to attract capital inflows (for example, BlackRock's IBIT fund has reached $53.77 billion), combined with long-term holdings by companies like MicroStrategy (with an unrealized gain of about $3.9 billion), which supports market confidence. However, the delay in Bitcoin investment legislation in some U.S. states and cooling expectations for Fed interest rate cuts have exacerbated short-term selling pressure. On-chain data shows that there is a cluster of 50,000 BTC holding cost around $74,000, which may slow down the decline, but if it falls below $69,000, it could trigger larger liquidations. In the long term, analysts predict that by mid-2025, it may break through $200,000, mainly due to increased institutional holdings (such as El Salvador's national reserves) and a strengthening of sovereign narratives.

#苹果放宽加密规则

Apple has continuously strengthened data encryption technology in recent years, not relaxing encryption rules; instead, it has further expanded the coverage of end-to-end encryption (E2EE) through the **“Advanced Data Protection”** feature, giving users more control over their data. The following are the key points:

1. **Expanded Encryption Scope**
By default, iCloud enables end-to-end encryption for 15 types of sensitive data (such as health information, keychain passwords). After enabling “Advanced Data Protection,” the number of encrypted categories expands to 25, including new additions like iCloud backups, photos, notes, and Safari bookmarks. Only iCloud email, contacts, and calendar maintain standard encryption to ensure compatibility with global email systems. This feature keeps encryption keys entirely on the user’s device, preventing Apple from accessing data, ensuring safety even if the cloud is breached.

2. **User Control and Responsibility**
Enabling this feature requires users to actively set it up and mandates the configuration of **recovery contacts** or **recovery keys** to prevent data loss if the account is compromised. This reflects Apple’s shift of data recovery responsibility to users while enhancing security, balancing convenience and privacy.

3. **Technical Compatibility Requirements**
Users must upgrade to iOS 16.2 or later and ensure all devices are updated in sync; otherwise, functionality may be impacted. This move encourages users to keep their systems up-to-date, indirectly enhancing the overall security ecosystem.

4. **Industry Impact and Trends**
Apple’s actions respond to the increasing risks of cloud data breaches (with over 1.1 billion records leaked globally in 2021), promoting the adoption of end-to-end encryption as a core means of defending against advanced threats within the industry. Its hybrid encryption model (device-side keys + cloud metadata encryption) guarantees privacy while maintaining certain service functionalities (such as optimized storage deduplication).

In conclusion, Apple is tightening encryption rules further through “Advanced Data Protection” rather than relaxing them. Users can choose a higher level of security but must take on the responsibility of key management. This strategy reinforces the brand positioning of “privacy as a human right” while promoting the upgrade of industry security standards.

$BTC

Recently, the price of Bitcoin (BTC) has been highly volatile, influenced by multiple factors. By the end of 2024, Bitcoin once surpassed $108,000 but then retreated to around $96,000. The market was shaken by optimistic sentiment regarding policies after Trump's election and expectations of regulatory loosening (such as the repeal of SEC's SAB121 restrictions). In early March 2025, Trump announced the inclusion of XRP, SOL, and ADA in the U.S. cryptocurrency reserves, pushing BTC to rise over 9% in a single day. However, during the same period, the market panic intensified due to a hack on Bybit exchange by North Korean hackers (resulting in a loss of $1.5 billion), causing BTC to briefly fall below $84,000, leading to over 170,000 liquidation events within 24 hours. Subsequently, some U.S. states postponed Bitcoin investment legislation, coupled with a cooling expectation of Federal Reserve interest rate cuts, further pushing BTC down to $91,000, with the number of liquidations in a single day reaching 310,000. Currently, the market is focused on institutional fund movements, such as continued inflows into spot ETFs and countries like El Salvador increasing their BTC holdings. The long-term bullish sentiment still exists, and analysts predict it may break through $200,000 by mid-2025.

#数字资产法案

The 'Digital Asset Act' aims to establish a legal regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies and blockchain assets, clarifying the classification standards for digital assets (securities, payment, or commodities), and regulating the compliance obligations of exchanges, custodians, and issuers. The act requires the implementation of anti-money laundering (AML) measures and user identity verification (KYC) to protect investors' rights, while delineating the responsibilities of regulatory agencies to avoid overlapping jurisdiction. Its core objective is to balance innovation and risk, attract institutional capital through legal certainty, and curb market manipulation and fraud. The focal point of contention revolves around how decentralized finance (DeFi) applies traditional financial regulatory logic and the compliance treatment of privacy coins. This act may become a reference paradigm for global digital asset legislation.

#稳定币日常支付

In the cryptocurrency field, Binance, as a leading global trading platform, supports the trading of various stablecoins (such as USDT, USDC, BUSD, etc.) and daily payment applications. Stablecoins, due to their characteristic of being pegged to fiat currencies (such as the US dollar), have low price volatility, making them an ideal choice for everyday payments. For example, users can purchase stablecoins through Binance's fiat deposit channels and use them for cross-border transfers, online shopping, or offline merchant payments (such as some cafes in Dubai and Geneva that accept USDT payments).

The built-in Web3 wallet on the Binance platform supports stablecoins for direct use in decentralized applications (DApps) and the DeFi ecosystem, such as earning interest through staking stablecoins or participating in liquidity mining, while also enabling quick global transfers with low fees. Furthermore, financial services partnered with Binance (such as Binance Pay) allow users to purchase airline tickets, pay bills, or spend at partner merchants using stablecoins, further expanding its everyday payment scenarios.

Although stablecoins provide convenience, market risks must still be considered. For instance, the collapse of the algorithmic stablecoin UST in 2022 revealed that insufficient reserves or structural flaws could lead to systemic crises. Therefore, users should prioritize stablecoins backed by fiat or highly liquid assets (such as USDC, USDT). Binance enhances the security of stablecoin payments through strict KYC verification and asset reserve guarantees (such as the SAFU fund).

**Cryptocurrency Airdrop Scam Prevention Manual**
Be cautious of scams when participating in cryptocurrency airdrops:
1. **Verify Project Authenticity**: Confirm that the airdrop source is an official announcement, avoiding clicks on unknown links or imitation websites;
2. **Beware of High Return Promises**: Only trust airdrops that do not require payment or private key sharing to participate;
3. **Protect Private Information**: Never disclose your wallet's private key or recovery phrase, as scammers often impersonate customer service to extract information;
4. **Use Independent Wallets**: Participate in airdrops using dedicated wallets to avoid mixing with main assets;
5. **Verify Community Reputation**: Cross-check the project's credibility through white papers, development team backgrounds, and community discussions.
Scam tactics include fake airdrops that induce authorization, phishing links, and false KYC reviews, maintaining a skeptical attitude and multiple verifications are key to preventing scams.

#SEC推迟多个现货ETF审批

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has recently postponed the approval of multiple cryptocurrency spot ETFs, primarily involving Ethereum, XRP, and other currencies. Taking the Ethereum spot ETF as an example, the SEC was originally scheduled to make a decision on the applications from institutions like VanEck and ARK on May 23 and 24, 2024, but required the exchanges to adjust their listing application documents and update the 19b-4 filings, implying an extended approval process. This postponement reflects the SEC's cautious attitude towards the cryptocurrency market, with particular attention to potential market manipulation risks, investor protection, and the compliance of underlying assets. Previously, although the Bitcoin spot ETF was approved in 2024, the process took a decade of negotiation, with court rulings and regulatory pressure forcing the SEC to compromise, while the approval of other cryptocurrencies still faces stricter legal scrutiny. Furthermore, although the SEC has preliminarily acknowledged the application for the XRP spot ETF, it has not yet provided a clear timeline, indicating a higher threshold for non-Bitcoin assets. Analysts believe that regulatory agencies need to balance innovation and risk, leading to an extended approval cycle.

#特朗普就职百日

During the first hundred days of Trump's presidency, his policies had an indirect impact on the cryptocurrency market. The tariff policies, economic protectionism, and fluctuations in financial markets (such as the sell-off of dollar assets and stock market volatility) promoted by the Trump administration exacerbated market uncertainty, leading some investors to turn to cryptocurrencies as a hedge or speculative tool. Additionally, the Trump administration's cuts to federal agencies and its tendency toward power centralization contrasted with the core idea of decentralization in cryptocurrencies, highlighting the conflict between traditional financial systems and emerging digital assets. Although his administration did not directly implement cryptocurrency policies, the overall instability of the economic environment and regulatory ambiguity may further drive the volatility and attention of the crypto market.

$BTC

Recently, the price volatility of Bitcoin ($BTC ) has attracted widespread attention. As global economic uncertainty increases, many investors view Bitcoin as a safe-haven asset. There has been a rise in institutional investors in the market, which has driven up demand. Furthermore, many countries are gradually clarifying their regulatory policies regarding cryptocurrencies, which also affects market sentiment. Despite price fluctuations and market adjustments, Bitcoin is still considered the leader of digital assets, continuously capturing the attention of investors.

#空投操作全指南

**Binance Airdrop Operation Guide**
Cryptocurrency airdrops are an important way for project teams to attract users to participate in the ecosystem by distributing tokens for free. There are various airdrop opportunities within the Binance ecosystem as well. Below are the core operational steps and important notes:

1. **Tool Preparation**
- **Wallet Setup**: Use a wallet compatible with Binance Smart Chain (BSC), such as Trust Wallet or MetaMask (BSC network needs to be configured), to ensure the ability to receive BEP-20 tokens.
- **Holding Strategy**: Holding BNB (Binance Coin) may qualify you for some projects' “holding token airdrop” eligibility; the minimum holding requirement must be met at the time of the snapshot.

2. **Project Selection and Interaction**
- **Track Binance Ecosystem**: Follow Binance Launchpad, projects on the BSC chain, or filter recent airdrop activities through aggregation platforms (such as Airdrops.io, Bitget Airdrop Library).
- **On-chain Interaction**: Participate in DeFi protocols within the BSC ecosystem (such as PancakeSwap), stake BNB, or engage in governance voting to increase airdrop weight.

3. **Task Execution**
- **Community Tasks**: Join the project's Telegram group, follow the official Twitter, and retweet posts; some airdrops require KYC verification to be completed.
- **Testnet Operations**: Use the Binance testnet (such as Binance Smart Chain Testnet) for zero-cost practice interactions to avoid incurring gas fees on the mainnet.

4. **Risk Management**
- **Fund Security**: Use an independent wallet to participate in airdrops to avoid exposing main assets; regularly check contract authorizations to guard against phishing links.
- **Project Background Check**: Verify the team's background and contract audits to avoid participating in high-risk or unverified airdrops.

**Case Reference**: Binance has supported several BSC ecosystem projects (such as PancakeSwap) airdrops, where users can obtain tokens through staking or trading. Recently, cross-chain protocols like LayerZero may also airdrop to BSC users, requiring continued on-chain activity.

Through systematic operations and risk control, Binance users can effectively participate in airdrops, turning ecosystem involvement into potential gains.

#阿布扎比稳定币

Abu Dhabi has recently been active in the cryptocurrency sector. Its sovereign wealth fund ADQ, the largest bank in the UAE, First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB), and International Holding Company (IHC) announced on April 28, 2025, that they will jointly launch a stablecoin backed by UAE Dirham and regulated by the central bank. This initiative aims to drive innovation in digital payments and solidify the UAE's status as a global cryptocurrency hub. The stablecoin is planned to operate on the ADI blockchain and will support applications such as machine-to-machine (M2M) communication and artificial intelligence, with 100% of the Dirham reserves held in licensed banks to ensure compliance and stability. If approved, this will be the first fiat-pegged stablecoin jointly issued by sovereign institutions in Gulf countries, further echoing the UAE Central Bank's plan to launch a digital Dirham (CBDC) in the fourth quarter of 2025 to enhance the efficiency of the financial system and combat crime. This move not only strengthens the UAE's unique model of 'federal coordinated regulation + local flexible innovation' but also continues to boost the cryptocurrency ecosystem through large state-owned capital (such as MGX investing $2 billion in Binance), accelerating the integration of technology and capital.

#亚利桑那比特币储备

Arizona has made significant progress in cryptocurrency legislation recently, with its House of Representatives passing two bills (**SB1025** and **SB1373**) on April 28, 2025, allowing the state government to include cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin as part of its strategic reserve assets, with a maximum investment of 10% of fiscal funds. Among them, SB1025 passed with 31 votes in favor and 25 against, while SB1373 passed with 37 votes in favor and 19 against. If signed by the governor, this will become the first state-level Bitcoin reserve bill in the United States, marking the local government's recognition of cryptocurrencies as legal reserve assets, potentially encouraging other states or countries to follow suit and injecting long-term momentum into Bitcoin demand. Following the announcement, Bitcoin prices rose by 3.7% in the short term, with trading volume surging and market reaction being positive. Supporters believe that this bill lays the groundwork for the future role of crypto assets in public finance and echoes the federal-level discussions on Bitcoin strategic reserves.

#空投发现指南

Binance airdrops are an important source of income for cryptocurrency holders, mainly divided into **HODLer airdrops** and **Megadrop**, combined with specific project task activities (like REVOX airdrops), allowing users to choose their participation method based on their needs:

1. **HODLer Airdrop**
Targeted at users who hold BNB long-term, they need to invest BNB into Binance savings (either flexible or fixed products). The system automatically allocates airdrop tokens (like HYPER, GPS, etc.) through **random snapshots**, requiring no active operation. Its characteristics are **irregular distribution and no prior preparation**, suitable for long-term investors. For example, the latest Hyperlane (HYPER) airdrop has a snapshot time from April 14 to April 18, 2025, and users must lock their BNB in advance to qualify.

2. **Megadrop**
An interactive airdrop combining BNB staking with Web3 tasks, users need to stake BNB (minimum 0.05 BNB) in the Binance App and complete on-chain tasks (like minting NFTs, trading on DEX), with rewards distributed based on a points ratio. For example, in the KernelDAO project, staking 20 BNB for 90 days can earn 2,400 points, further enhancing earnings with task multipliers. This type of activity emphasizes **early participation in potential projects** and **educational operational experiences**, suitable for users familiar with Web3.

3. **Project Collaboration Airdrop**
Some projects (like REVOX) collaborate with Binance to launch independent tasks, requiring simple operations like social media following and daily check-ins to share point rewards. For example, the REVOX airdrop requires connecting to the Binance Web3 wallet, transferring opBNB, and continuously checking in for 7 days, with a maximum of 160 points accumulated.

**Risks and Strategy Recommendations**
- **Liquidity Risk**: BNB locked during the staking period cannot be traded, bearing price fluctuations.
- **Project Volatility**: Airdrop tokens may experience short-term declines due to selling pressure once listed, timely market reaction assessment is recommended.
- **Participation Strategy**: Diversify BNB into flexible savings to balance HODLer eligibility and flexibility, and pay attention to Binance announcements to stay updated on Megadrop and task airdrop dynamics.

#特朗普税改
Trump's tax reform, centered on 'domestic tax cuts and foreign tax increases', aims to stimulate domestic investment and employment by significantly reducing corporate taxes (from 35% to between 15% and 21%) and simplifying individual tax brackets (from seven to three, with the highest tax rate decreased from 39.6% to 35%). However, this move may exacerbate the fiscal deficit, with estimates suggesting that tax cuts could cause federal debt to rise to 111% of GDP over the next decade. The tax reform is linked to tariff policies, such as imposing tariffs of 10%-60% on imported goods, creating a strategy of 'external pressure to drive internal growth', compelling manufacturing to return but raising inflation and provoking retaliation from multiple countries. Additionally, the elimination of state tax deductions and other provisions impacts middle-class individuals and the Chinese community in high-tax states (like California and New York), worsening wealth disparity. On an international level, Trump's withdrawal from global tax reform negotiations and opposition to a minimum corporate tax aims to preserve U.S. tax sovereignty, leading to a more complex international tax landscape.

$ETH

As of April 2025, the price of Ethereum (ETH) is approximately $1,817.43, an increase of 0.01153% compared to the previous trading day. Although Ethereum has risen about 71.5% this year, it still lags behind Bitcoin's 142% increase. It is expected that by April 2025, the price of Ethereum could reach $6,178, with a maximum of $6,585.

The growth of Ethereum is influenced by multiple factors, including the approval of Ethereum ETFs, reduced supply, and potential policy support. However, the market still faces challenges of regulatory uncertainty and low institutional participation. Nevertheless, with technological upgrades and increasing market demand, Ethereum is still regarded as an asset with long-term appreciation potential.

#特朗普暂停新关税

Trump recently announced a suspension of the reciprocal tariff plan, and the tariff measures originally scheduled to take effect in April have been postponed. This move caused the price of Bitcoin to rebound from about $95,000 to $96,000, with market sentiment slightly improving. However, as tariffs may begin in the second quarter, investor confidence in the crypto market remains cautious, leading to net outflows in Bitcoin ETFs, indicating an increased correlation between the crypto market and macroeconomic factors. Although the market has seen a short-term rebound, the overall outlook is still affected by the uncertainty of tariff policies.

$ETH

Ethereum (ETH), as the second largest cryptocurrency, is under significant attention for its future development. Various institutions present significant discrepancies in their price predictions for 2025: Finder predicts ETH could reach $5,824, while Standard Chartered has drastically revised its forecast from $10,000 down to $4,000 due to Layer 2 solutions diverting value from the mainnet. On the technical side, the Ethereum 2.0 proof of stake (PoS) upgrade has improved transaction efficiency and reduced energy consumption, while plans to integrate AI agents aim to expand the utility of decentralized applications (dApps). However, Layer 2 scaling solutions (like Base) have alleviated congestion on the mainnet but have also led to revenue outflows and liquidity fragmentation, weakening ETH's economic value. Additionally, Solana's high-frequency trading advantages and the rise of Bitcoin DeFi (with total value locked surging by 1,700%) also pose competitive pressure on Ethereum. In terms of regulation, if U.S. policies become clearer or encourage institutional participation, the current downward trend in the ETH/BTC trading pair, ETF capital outflows, and low on-chain activity reflect a lack of short-term market confidence. A comprehensive analysis indicates that the future of ETH depends on the effectiveness of technological upgrades, Layer 2 ecosystem integration, regulatory progress, and the ability to respond to competition, with both long-term potential and risks present.

#以太坊的未来
The future development of Ethereum (ETH) is receiving significant attention, with multiple institutions predicting substantial growth by 2025. VanEck forecasts that the price of Ethereum could reach $6,000 in the first quarter and hit new highs by the end of the year, driven by demand from its decentralized finance (DeFi) and smart contract functionalities within its ecosystem. Technological upgrades like the proof-of-stake (PoS) mechanism of Ethereum 2.0 will enhance transaction efficiency and reduce energy consumption, further strengthening its competitiveness. Additionally, the adoption of tokenized securities and stablecoins (such as daily settlement volumes reaching $300 billion) could further solidify Ethereum's position in the financial sector. However, Ethereum also faces challenges from emerging platforms like Solana and needs to continually optimize Layer 2 scaling and cross-chain interoperability to maintain its advantage. Some analysts even predict that if technological upgrades and market adoption accelerate, the price of ETH could surpass $10,000. Overall, the future of Ethereum will depend on technological innovation, regulatory environment, and the continuous expansion of its ecosystem.
