SEC commissioner proposes new ideas for cryptocurrency regulation

SEC commissioners recently proposed three recommendations for cryptocurrency regulation:

1. Relax regulatory restrictions on obtaining cryptocurrency services to promote industry development.
2. Clearly define matters outside the jurisdiction of the SEC to alleviate the regulatory burden on relevant entities.
3. Collaborate with the industry to discuss the applicability of existing rules and necessary adjustments, and transparently promote regulatory consensus.

These recommendations aim to create a more flexible and transparent regulatory environment, which is expected to reduce compliance costs in the industry, enhance market confidence, and promote the healthy development of the cryptocurrency sector.

Market Trends

The altcoin market is experiencing significant volatility.

On December 10th, the cryptocurrency market experienced severe fluctuations:

• Bitcoin fell to $94,000
• Ethereum hit a low of $3509, with a 24-hour decrease of 7.15%
• SOL minimum $203, down 7.35%
• Several altcoins such as SAGA, 1INCH, and HMSTR have fallen by more than 20%.

According to data from the platform, over 570,000 people were liquidated across the entire network within 24 hours, a scale far exceeding past major market events. After this plunge, the funding rates for contracts on mainstream trading platforms generally fell back, and most altcoin contracts entered a "generally bearish" state, with some even experiencing negative rates.

Industry Hotspots

Bitcoin payments spark discussion

In response to a statement made by an executive from a trading platform regarding "Bitcoin payments being superior to traditional finance," industry insider Nubit stated: the intermediary-free and trustless settlement method of Bitcoin does indeed surpass traditional finance, but this is just the starting point. Through BitVM technology, Bitcoin is expected to break through its simple payment function and move towards becoming a true "world computer."

Ethereum developers switch to the Solana camp

Prominent Ethereum developer Max Resnick has announced his joining of the Solana core development company Anza. Resnick plans to initially focus on writing technical specifications for the Solana protocol, with a particular emphasis on the fee market and consensus implementation. Industry insiders believe that this shift could foster technical exchanges between Ethereum and Solana, bringing new ideas for Solana's future development.

TikTok Concept Coin Rises Against Market Trends

Against the backdrop of a declining overall market, TikTok-related concept coins have shown explosive growth:

• $Luigi Token: Based on a social news piece, its market cap once soared to $63.8 million, with an increase of nearly 494 times.
• $APPLE token: Originating from a TikTok famous dog that loves apples, its market value once reached 48.64 million dollars.

The trends of these tokens reflect the significant influence of social media on the cryptocurrency market, while also raising concerns about speculative behavior.
