    Uniswap founder Hayden Adams posted on social media that cryptocurrency founders and venture capitalists need to stop valuing projects at over $1 billion in the early stages of development and before tokens have been released, until they are truly worth that valuation. Building something worth 7-9 figures is an incredible achievement, and not every project needs to be a unicorn at launch. Additionally, Hayden Adams said, perhaps it's naive, but I think raising funds as a founder at a fair valuation (real talent wants upside) and investing at a fair valuation as a VC (LPs want upside) can make more money. It's just harder to do it that way.

  • Chairman of the U.S. SEC: The crypto market is a hotbed of fraud, and investors are not getting the necessary information disclosure on related assets

    According to CNBC, Gary Gensler, the chairman of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), stated in an interview that the SEC oversees $110 trillion in capital markets, with approximately half in the stock market and half in the bond and other markets. Cryptocurrency is only a small part of the entire market. However, it is a huge part of fraud, deception, and problems in the market, as most of the content in this field does not comply with securities law protection.The SEC cannot talk to any company, but in the field of crypto assets, without prejudging any of them, according to the US Supreme Court's interpretation, many tokens are securities under local law, so we comply with this law, and investors do not receive the necessary information disclosure about these assets.
  • CFTC Chairman: Cryptocurrencies face an inevitable wave of enforcement actions

    As the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) continues to review participants in the cryptocurrency industry including Robinhood, Binance, Coinbase, and Ripple, Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Chairman Rostin Behnam has warned that enforcement actions are on the rise. Behnam emphasized the lack of regulatory frameworks and transparency in the constantly evolving cryptocurrency industry, which he believes will inevitably lead to more cases of fraud and manipulation. Behnam expects a "cycle of enforcement actions" in the next six months to two years, driven by the rapid appreciation of digital assets and strong interest from retail investors. In addition, Behnam believes that without proper regulation, fraud and manipulation will continue to persist.
