Next news:
According to TechFlow, on April 22nd, as reported by Jinsight Data, spot gold hit a new all-time high at $3448 per ounce, rising 0.63% intraday.
Next news:The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced that Paul Atkins has officially been sworn in as the 34th Chairman. Atkins, a long-time supporter of cryptocurrencies, was nominated by President Trump on January 20 and confirmed by the Senate earlier this month. Atkins stated that he will focus on promoting capital formation, maintaining fair, orderly, and efficient markets, and protecting investors. He plans to prioritize establishing a regulatory framework for digital assets, contrasting with former Chairman Gary Gensler's approach of "regulating through enforcement." Since Gensler's departure, the SEC has withdrawn controversial crypto accounting guidance, halted enforcement actions against major industry players, and formed a crypto working group led by Commissioner Hester Peirce to encourage open discussions on cryptocurrency regulatory issues. Atkins served as an SEC Commissioner from 2002 to 2008 before founding the consulting firm Patomak Global Partners, whose clients include banks, crypto exchanges, and DeFi platforms.
Next news:Background: Bithumb is one of South Korea's major cryptocurrency exchanges, planning to strengthen its business structure by splitting its non-trading business units and to push for an initial public offering (IPO) this year.
Key Event: According to Bithumb's statement on South Korea's official electronic disclosure system DART, the split is scheduled to be implemented on July 31, 2025, with the new entity named Bithumb A. The split aims to prevent the risks of non-trading businesses from spreading to trading operations through independent liabilities, while enhancing the professionalism and competitiveness of each business unit. After the split, the shareholding ratio between Bithumb and the new entity will be approximately 56:44.
Performance: With the crypto market warming up in the second half of 2024, Bithumb's net profit last year reached 110 million USD, a year-on-year increase of 560%. South Korea's largest exchange, Upbit, reported a net profit of approximately 671 million USD last year.
Future Plans: This restructuring aligns with Bithumb's plan to conduct an IPO on the local Korean stock market in the second half of this year, with Samsung Securities as the underwriter. Bithumb is also considering the possibility of listing on Nasdaq.

Next news:The European Central Bank (ECB) is concerned that U.S. President Trump's support for the cryptocurrency industry may trigger financial "contagion" risks. These risks stem from previous events such as the collapse of the cryptocurrency exchange FTX, the failure of the CeFi lending platform BlockFi, and the crash of the DeFi project Terra Luna, which could pose a threat to the European economy. The European Commission has raised objections to the ECB's analysis, reflecting internal debates within Europe about the Trump administration's use of cryptocurrencies, especially stablecoins, to strengthen the influence of the U.S. dollar and promote asset inflows. The European Union's 2023 Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) is seen as the first significant legislation targeting crypto enterprises, restricting the issuance of foreign currency-backed stablecoins. However, the proposed U.S. STABLE and GENIUS bills aim to expand the influence of U.S. dollar-backed stablecoins, causing the ECB to worry that MiCA's regulatory measures are insufficient. Some EU officials believe the ECB is exaggerating the threat posed by stablecoins to gain political support for its digital euro project. Nevertheless, the ECB warns that if EU issuers are required to simultaneously redeem tokens held both abroad and in Europe, it could trigger a reserve "run."
