Odaily Report: CZ posted on X in response to discussions about SPCX stock, stating that he never said he wanted to sell SPCX shares. He previously mentioned holding the stock because a related post comparing Binance with FTX might have led outsiders to mistakenly believe that Binance lacks funds; what he actually meant to express was that Binance holds other assets in addition to crypto assets.CZ also stated that the scale of the relevant assets held by Binance is merely a drop in the ocean for the other party and could not possibly pose a threat, and said that SPCX will remain a high-quality stock worth holding long-term for a very long time to come. He also called on outsiders not to frame the matter as confrontation and said there is no need to deliberately create division.Earlier reports said that CZ, in a post replying to Musk's comment on Binance being hacked, stated: "I respect you very much, but now is not the time for jokes. Our SPCX stock (from our $500 million investment in your acquisition of Twitter) is now worth more than a billion dollars. I would be very grateful if you could show a little support."

Odaily reports: Vlad Tenev, CEO of fintech company Robinhood, said the US tokenized market needs more durable regulatory rules. On the company's third-quarter earnings call, he stated that the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)'s innovation exemption is a positive step, but uncertainty in regulatory rules could deter investors from committing substantial assets to the tokenized market.Tenev said that establishing further rules or passing legislation would help provide long-term regulatory certainty. Robinhood plans to launch tokenized private company equity products overseas; in the US, the company is seeking a compliant path that fits within existing investor accreditation restrictions.Robinhood currently offers about 200 tokenized equities, backed by underlying shares, but the products are structured as tokenized debt securities and do not carry the same shareholder rights as traditional stocks, and therefore do not meet the SEC's innovation exemption requirements. In the third quarter, the company's crypto revenue fell 55% year-over-year to $120 million, while crypto notional trading volume dropped 38% to $50 billion. (Cointelegraph)
Odaily reports: Regarding the previous LIBRA token scandal, as an Argentine judge dismissed the criminal investigation against Milei, the matter has come to a close. In response, Milei published a lengthy post on X lamenting: "Now who will compensate me for the lies, slander, and defamation I have suffered over the past year, eight months, and nine days—lies, slander, and defamation whose sole purpose was to tarnish my good name and honor?Justice has once again set things right, exposing that massive political and media operation whose only goal was to undermine the authority of the presidency for the purpose of a political coup.I celebrate the normal functioning of the institutions of the Republic, and a judicial system that has not been dragged down by the clownish performances of the usual operators.This lawsuit was politically exploited, not only by certain factions of the opposition, who thought they could overthrow us to restore their privileges, but also by other forces, such as the La Nación group and its henchmen, to extort the government in exchange for evading their tax obligations.To those paid journalists, mercenaries of lies, and people like Hugo Alconada Mon, Carlos Pagni, Paulino Rodríguez, Natalia Volosin, Novaresio, and all others who exploited this topic: now who is responsible for all the garbage you spread?The truth always prevails in the end. Long live freedom, damn it...!!!"

Odaily reports: Crypto analyst Darkfost published a post on X outlining the evolution of JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon's attitude toward Bitcoin in recent years.In 2017, Dimon called Bitcoin a "fraud"; in 2018, he expressed regret over those remarks and acknowledged the value of blockchain technology; from 2019 to 2020, he said Bitcoin "doesn't appeal to him"; in 2021, he called it "worthless"; in 2023, he said that if he had the power, he would ban Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies; and in 2024, he likened Bitcoin to "pet rocks" and a Ponzi scheme.In 2025, Dimon still criticized Bitcoin for lacking value and being used for money laundering, but later stated that everyone has the right to buy Bitcoin. Now, JPMorgan in its 2027 outlook has listed Bitcoin as the asset with the best long-term return performance.Previously reported, JPMorgan Asset Management released its "2027 Long-Term Capital Market Assumptions" report on October 19, including Bitcoin in its long-term return projections for the first time and forecasting a compound annual growth rate of 10% over the next 10 to 15 years, higher than the 7.5% for U.S. large-cap stocks, 5.5% for gold, and 8.2% for U.S. real estate investment trusts (REITs).
Trader degentrading published an analysis noting that Papertrade (@papertrade_xyz) released an explanation regarding the transferability of the PAPER token. The statement indicates that Papertrade is a relatively complex primitive with higher risk management complexity, and the PAPER token is more deeply integrated into the protocol's economic model compared to tokens of most other protocols. The analyst pointed out that, relative to the previous supply model, newer users and miners will obtain a relatively larger share, diminishing the advantage of early mining participants. He believes this adjustment negatively impacts early participants but benefits the protocol's long-term development and organic users.

Odaily Report: Michael Saylor published a long article titled "Prescriptions for Prosperity in the Digital Economy," stating that artificial intelligence will greatly enhance the productive capacity of individuals and enterprises, thus requiring greater freedom to create, finance, own, and trade assets. He proposed establishing a "Digital Bill of Rights" for digital assets, the core of which is to grant individuals and enterprises the rights to Create, Issue, Custody, Transfer, and Use digital assets, and to provide foundational protections in financial privacy, asset ownership, and market access.Saylor believes that digital intelligence will drive the birth of a large number of new enterprises, and that the cost, complexity, and time required for financing should be reduced, while capital formation efficiency should be improved through means such as digital tokens. He proposed aiming to enable 10 million new businesses to access financing, while establishing clear issuance rules and risk-matched information disclosure requirements.Regarding the digital dollar, Saylor advocates allowing banks, fintech companies, and technology platforms to compete more fully in digital dollar products, and permitting issuers to compete on yield. He believes that the United States can further expand the global reach of the dollar by allowing enterprises to develop more competitive digital dollar products.As for Bitcoin, Saylor defines it as "Digital Capital," advocating that banks be allowed to custody Bitcoin under clear rules and provide credit using it as collateral, while establishing a viable path for insurance companies to include digital capital in their balance sheets and product design. He specifically mentioned that the Basel Accord applies a 1250% risk weight to certain crypto asset exposures, and believes that regulators should reassess relevant capital requirements based on the actual risks of digital assets and specific business activities.
Long.xyz has announced the launch of LONG 500, aiming to build the financial layer for on-chain stock communities and establish it as the S&P 500 index of the tokenized stock sector. LONG currently supports over 70 tokenized stocks. Going forward, of the stock token fees generated by each new stock pair trading pool, 5% will be injected into the AI community treasury, and another 5% will be used for buyback and burn of paired tokens, with anyone able to trigger buybacks around the clock. The automatic reinvestment mechanism for liquidity pool earnings will continue to operate, and creator fees will remain unchanged; Long.xyz also plans to upgrade the community treasury for all previously launched trading pairs and add new features.
Odaily reports: Nate posted on X that LONG builds liquidity around tokenized stock trading pairs. The main problem in the current crypto market is not a lack of trading activity, but a lack of stability; deep liquidity raises the cost of market manipulation and concentrated supply, and helps the market absorb extreme volatility. Stock trading pairs can serve as a secondary market for tokenized stocks, enabling liquidity providers to participate in trading, arbitrage, and subsequent lending applications.Taking the AI/NVIDIA trading pair as an example, when NVIDIA stock rises 20%, the USD value of NVIDIA in the liquidity pool will simultaneously rise to approximately 1.2x. Selling the same amount of AI can yield a higher USD value, but the actual effect depends on liquidity depth. Arbitrage activity between AI/NVIDIA, AI/USDG, and NVIDIA/USDG is used to maintain on-chain implied price synchronization; the deeper the NVIDIA liquidity in the pool, the more stable the arbitrage process. Nate stated that at this stage, LONG places greater emphasis on asset distribution and scale growth, rather than immediately providing high yields to holders through fees or dividends. Once asset scale expands, value can be returned to holders through dividends, voting rights, or accumulating NVIDIA. The team previously provided approximately $200,000 worth of liquidity to the AI/NVIDIA pool and LongX-related assets respectively; if included in the community treasury, the value of NVIDIA held could increase by approximately double. Regarding high-tax-rate trading pools and token-holding dividend mechanisms, Nate stated that such models are easily replaced by low-fee pools and rely on highly concentrated and active liquidity management. Therefore, LONG will not support such mechanisms by default, but instead hopes to encourage users to hold for the long term through stock correlation, liquidity, and organic growth.
