🚫 WHY CAN BINANCE REFUSE TO LIST $PI? THE REASONS BEHIND?

Pi Network has attracted millions of users with the promise of a cryptocurrency ecosystem but has yet to enable real trading. Many hope that Binance will list Pi, but that seems nearly impossible. Here are the reasons:

🔒 1. Pi Lacks Real Liquidity

The majority of Pi is locked, causing users to only see the number on the app without being able to use it. Without the ability for real trading, Binance will not risk listing an asset that lacks liquidity.

❌ 2. Complicated KYC System & Lack of Transparency

Many users have been waiting for identity verification for years without a clear reason. This undermines trust and does not meet the standards of major exchanges like Binance.

🎛️ 3. Pi Network is Too Centralized

Although promoted as a decentralized blockchain, actual control lies in the hands of a small group. Users have no decision-making power, making the ecosystem lack transparency and unsuitable for listing on a reputable exchange.

📢 4. Exploiting the Community to Create Hype

Pi primarily relies on KOLs to maintain user interest rather than providing a real product. Without a practical use case, Binance has no reason to engage with this ecosystem.

✅ Conclusion: Binance Has Made the Right Decision

Only when Pi Network proves transparency, liquidity, and fairness can Binance consider listing it. Currently, this project remains a centralized system with many risks. Users need to be cautious before placing their trust in Pi.

📈 Federal Reserve Interest Rate Decision Forecast - March 2025

⏳ Important Moment
On March 19, 2025, the U.S. Federal Reserve (FED) will announce its monetary policy decision following the meeting of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC). Given the current economic situation, it is highly likely that the FED will continue to maintain a cautious policy to ensure financial stability.

📉 U.S. Economic Situation
GDP is forecasted to grow by 2% in 2025.
Inflation remains above the 2% target, with the PCE index fluctuating around 2.5%-2.6%.
The unemployment rate remains in the range of 4.2%-4.4%, indicating a stable labor market.

💭 Market Forecast
According to the CME FedWatch Tool, the majority of experts assess that the FED will keep interest rates unchanged at 4.25%-4.5% with an 85%-90% probability. The likelihood of a 25 basis point rate cut is quite low due to persistent inflationary pressures.

🌍 Influencing Factors
🔹 Inflation: The CPI at the beginning of 2025 has reached 3%, making it difficult for the FED to make a decision to ease policy.
🔹 Trade Policy: New tariff measures from the Trump administration may push commodity prices higher, adding inflationary pressure.
🔹 Labor Market: The stability of employment provides the FED with more room to be patient before changing policy.

🚀 FED Decision Prediction
✔️ Maintain interest rates: The level of 4.25%-4.5% is likely to be sustained.
✔️ Cautious message: The FED will emphasize that the next decision depends on economic data, rather than committing to immediate cuts.
✔️ Forecast adjustment: The “Dot Plot” chart may show fewer rate cuts in 2025 than previously forecasted.

Whales dump 100 million ADA – Retail investors accumulate strongly 🐋➡️📈

🔥 ADA price is under pressure as whales sell off, but Holders are still increasing significantly!

In the past week, over 100 million ADA have been "dumped" by whales, creating a wave of concern in the market. However, the number of investors holding ADA continues to rise, indicating that market sentiment is not panicking.

📉 Where is ADA on the price chart?

Currently, ADA is still holding above an important support area, fluctuating around $0.7046.
The 50-day and 200-day moving averages are at $0.7646 and $0.8913, respectively, creating notable resistance levels.
RSI: 43.61, not in the oversold zone but still requires caution!

🔍 Cardano Holders continue to increase!

Despite selling pressure from whales, the number of Holders has exceeded 4.46 million, showing that many retail investors still trust and are buying in.

⚔️ Will ADA recover or continue to weaken?

If ADA surpasses $0.75 - $0.80, the uptrend may be confirmed.
If it loses support at $0.70, the price could plunge to $0.65.

💡 Investors should closely monitor price movements and trading volume in the coming time!

🔥 Elon Musk doesn't give up: Determined to reclaim 56 billion USD rejected by the court

💰 The legal battle remains unresolved

Elon Musk is appealing the court's decision to reject the 56 billion USD bonus package at Tesla, even though this package has been approved by shareholders twice. Judge Kathaleen McCormick believes Musk has too much influence over the board of directors, leading to a lack of objectivity in the decision.

📜 What is in the 56 billion USD bonus package?

In 2018, Musk agreed to forgo a salary, instead gaining the right to purchase 303 million Tesla shares at 23 USD/share if the company meets certain goals.
To date, Tesla has met all conditions, but the court still rejected the agreement.
Tesla's stock is currently at 230.58 USD/share.

⚖️ How does Musk respond?

He argues that the court was wrong to apply the “entire fairness” standard and misjudged his level of control over Tesla.
The appeal claims that Musk only owns 21.9% of the shares, which cannot manipulate the board of directors.
The court's decision contradicts Delaware law and corporate governance principles.

🚀 Why is Musk determined to reclaim the bonus?

If not restored, Tesla may have to establish a new salary package worth 25 billion USD.
Musk wants more shares in Tesla; otherwise, he may focus on SpaceX or AI.

🏛 "DExit" – The wave of leaving Delaware?

Musk criticizes Delaware, encouraging Tesla and other companies to move their business registrations elsewhere. Some large corporations like Meta and TripAdvisor are considering leaving, forcing Delaware's legislature to consider amending laws to prevent widespread “DExit.”

🔥 The legal battle is still ongoing; will Elon Musk be able to reclaim 56 billion USD?

🔥 LUNA & LUNC: The Hidden Truth! 🔥

A major upheaval is occurring with LUNA & LUNC, but not many people are aware! If you pay attention, their prices have some strange movements. So is the market being manipulated? Let's decode! 🚀

📉 The Price Seems Fine… But Is It Really?

LUNA: $0.204 (+2.25%) 📈
LUNC: $0.00006289 (+0.8%) 📈

At first glance, nothing seems noteworthy. But the staking wallets tell a different story.

💰 Staking – A Tool for Price Control?

🔎 LUNA: Staking but coins are not removed from circulation → High supply → Prices suppressed.

🔎 LUNC: Staking helps reduce supply, but prices still do not rise significantly. Why? 🤔

🚨 Trick to Accumulate Before the Surge?

📌 Whales & exchanges may keep prices low to accumulate before a big explosion.

📌 When adjusting the staking supply, prices could spike.

📌 If selling pressure drops suddenly, LUNA & LUNC could take off.

⚡ What Awaits?

1️⃣ If staking changes, LUNA could surge strongly.

2️⃣ LUNC is undervalued, but scarcity could lead to a sudden price increase.

3️⃣ Sharks are accumulating, and retail investors may be left behind.

🚀 Conclusion: When resistance levels are broken, the market may witness a massive explosion. Don't miss the opportunity! 🔥🔥🔥

🚀 Elon Musk's Challenging Phase: Network X Faces Issues, Tesla Plummets, $23 Billion in Assets Vaporized

📉 X Encounters Serious Errors

On March 10, the social network X owned by Musk experienced widespread disruption. He claimed this was a "large-scale cyber attack" from Ukraine, but cybersecurity experts have not confirmed this.

🔥 Controversial Statements

Musk called Senator Mark Kelly a "traitor" for supporting Ukraine, prompting severe criticism from many American politicians, including Republicans.

🚗 Tesla Stocks Crash

On the same day, Tesla lost 15% of its value after Trump announced plans to impose new taxes on the automotive industry. In just three months, the company's stock has evaporated by more than 50%.

📺 Appeared on Television but Unconvincing

Musk admitted to facing "a lot of difficulties" in balancing his role at Tesla and other companies. When asked about Tesla's future, he quoted from the movie Monty Python: "Always look on the bright side of life".

💬 Message on X

Not providing a specific strategy, Musk simply wrote: "In the long run, everything will be fine." 😶

📅 On February 12th, a trader executed a long ETH position with a total volume of over 300 million dollars on Hyperliquid. He used 15 million dollars as collateral with leverage ranging from 13.5x to 19.2x.

📈 As the price $ETH increased, this position reached a profit of about 8 million dollars. At that moment, the trader decided to take partial profits and withdrew 17 million dollars to his personal account (including 1.86 million dollars in profits, the rest being the principal). This action reduced the collateral level while pushing the liquidation price higher, increasing the risk of liquidation if the ETH price dropped sharply.

🔥 An event occurred! The ETH price quickly plummeted to 1,839 dollars, leading to a complete liquidation of the position. Due to the excessively large trading volume, liquidity on Hyperliquid was insufficient to absorb the entire amount of liquidation. To maintain system stability, the HLP Vault fund had to intervene, purchasing 160,234 ETH at a price of 1,839 USD/ETH (equivalent to about 286 million dollars).

📉 However, the market continued to face sell-off pressure (FUD), causing the ETH price to drop further, resulting in a loss of 4 million dollars for the HLP Vault.

💰 For the trader, although the exchange lost 4 million dollars, he still netted at least 1.86 million dollars in profit (the actual amount could be higher). This has raised many hypotheses that this trader may have exploited a mechanism loophole by going long ETH on Hyperliquid and shorting ETH on other CEX exchanges to profit from the difference.

⚖️ Is this a smart move, or merely a exploitation of the trading mechanism? 🤔

Ripple Catches Attention by Transferring 200 Million XRP Worth 457 Million USD – What’s Happening? 🚀

A massive transaction involving 200 million XRP (equivalent to 457.6 million USD) has just been executed by Ripple, transferred to an anonymous wallet. This event quickly caught the attention of the cryptocurrency community, especially as it occurred right when the lawsuit between Ripple and the SEC is nearing its conclusion. This has sparked numerous speculations about the true purpose behind this surprising move. 👀

📊 XRP Price: 2.2854 USD (+1.93%)

📌 Could This Be A Strategic Move?

Several hypotheses have been put forward, including:

🔹 Increased liquidity – Ripple may be preparing for a major trading plan.

🔹 Transferring funds to an exchange – This could affect the supply of XRP in the market.

🔹 A strategic move ahead of the SEC ruling – If the lawsuit ends favorably, XRP could see significant volatility.

⚖️ SEC Lawsuit & Its Impact on XRP

According to various sources, the lawsuit with the SEC is gradually coming to a close with more favorable terms for Ripple. Previously, a ruling in August required Ripple to pay a fine of 125 million USD and restricted the sale of XRP to institutional investors. If the final agreement helps Ripple overcome legal barriers, the price of XRP could surge. 📈

🔮 Price Prediction $XRP – Breakthrough or Correction?

Currently, XRP has just completed a correction phase with the projected target:

📍 Support levels: 2.22 USD & 2.04 USD

📍 Initial target: 2.42 USD

📍 Optimistic scenario: If market sentiment is positive after the lawsuit, XRP could aim for 4.29 USD – even 5 USD! 🚀

🔍 SEC may soon close the Ripple lawsuit after more than 4 years ⚖️

🕒 14 hours ago | Mr-Quit123

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) may be nearing the end of its more than 4-year lawsuit against Ripple Labs, marking a significant turning point in this high-profile legal battle.

📌 Latest developments

According to Fox Business journalist Eleanor Terrett, the SEC - Ripple lawsuit is approaching its conclusion. Both parties have filed appeals and cross-appeals related to the $125 million ruling from August 2024.

🚨 The lawsuit began in December 2020 when the SEC accused Ripple and its leaders of using XRP as an unregistered security to raise funds.

💬 Stuart Alderoty, Ripple’s General Counsel, stated:

“We have had a ruling and are in the process of appealing. However, we are optimistic that a settlement with the SEC can be reached. If not, Ripple will continue to pursue the appeal.”

⚡ Possible scenarios

✔️ If both parties agree to withdraw their appeals, Ripple will have to accept a $125 million penalty.

✔️ If a settlement is not reached, the lawsuit will extend further with unpredictable developments.

🏛️ Political impact & SEC's stance

This lawsuit occurs in a politically shifting context. Under the new administration, the SEC has withdrawn lawsuits against Coinbase, Kraken, and Consensys. Ripple has also taken strong political actions by funding tens of millions of dollars for campaigns related to former President Trump.

📢 Despite many questions regarding the connection between politics and the lawsuits, Alderoty affirmed:

“SEC makes independent decisions, not influenced by political contributions.”
