‍Bitcoin Enters Unofficial 'IPO' Phase: Jordi Visser Macro analyst Jordi Visser suggests Bitcoin is in an unofficial 'IPO' phase. This involves early holders circulating dormant coins while new investors accumulate, mirroring traditional stock market IPOs. Bitcoin has been consolidating between $106,786 and $115,957, a pattern Visser attributes to early investors selling post-lockup. Despite negative sentiment, he notes strong underlying faith, citing ETF approvals, record hashrates, and stablecoin adoption. Visser predicts this phase could last another 6-18 months, leading to reduced volatility as ownership becomes more distributed.

‍Эксперт Колумбийского университета: Токенизированные банковские депозиты проиграют конкуренцию стейблкоинам Омид Малекан, преподаватель Колумбийского университета, считает, что токенизированные банковские депозиты обречены на провал из-за превосходства стейблкоинов. Малекан утверждает, что оверколлатеризованные стейблкоины более безопасны, чем депозиты, выпускаемые банками с частичным резервированием. Стейблкоины также более функциональны, так как могут использоваться в различных децентрализованных приложениях (dApps). Кроме того, стейблкоины предлагают более высокую доходность, чем традиционные банковские продукты. Банковское лобби выступает против стейблкоинов, опасаясь потери доли рынка.

‍MEV Hinders DeFi Adoption for Institutions and Retail, States DEX Labs CEO Maximal Extractable Value (MEV), the practice of reordering transactions for profit by miners or validators, is a significant barrier to institutional adoption of Decentralized Finance (DeFi). Aditya Palepu, CEO of DEX Labs, highlights that the resulting information asymmetry prevents effective participation and impacts retail users. MEV enables practices like front-running and sandwich attacks, deterring institutions due to a lack of transaction privacy and exposure to market manipulation. Palepu suggests Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) as a solution, offering private transaction processing to prevent such exploitative practices and foster a fairer DeFi ecosystem.

‍NH Senate Halts Crypto Mining Deregulation Bill for Further Review The New Hampshire Senate Commerce Committee has delayed House Bill 639 (HB 639), a bill aimed at deregulating cryptocurrency mining. The decision follows an unprecedented volume of public feedback. The bill sought to prohibit municipal restrictions on mining, prevent unique digital asset taxes, and establish a dedicated blockchain court. The committee deadlocked twice before voting 4-2 to send the bill for interim study, with a potential return to the full Senate in 2026. This development occurs amid broader U.S. discussions on the environmental impact of crypto mining. While the industry has made strides in sustainability, with coal use dropping significantly in Bitcoin mining, regulatory debates continue, as seen in New York's proposed energy tax.
