Recently, regarding the relationship and mutual impacts between central bank digital currencies issued by various countries and crypto, opinions vary widely with no clear definition or unified understanding. In response, Halu Capital researcher Daofa Ziran has expressed the following views for discussion. Central bank digital currency (DCEP) is merely the digitization of currency form, with no changes to other aspects of its nature, nor does it apply blockchain technology. For example, central bank digital currency remains centralized, under central bank control, traceable, and uses real-name registration.

After suspending withdrawals for 34 days, OKEx has finally released a timeline for resuming withdrawals. According to the cryptocurrency exchange's announcement, users will regain withdrawal freedom before November 27th. Following the official announcement, OKEx's token OKB has surged 18% and reached $5.95, up more than 20% from one day prior. USDT on OKEx has also recovered to around 6.4 yuan at its peak. Long-accumulated anxiety and panic have been released.
On November 19, OKEx's announcement became the biggest highlight in the crypto community. That evening, the exchange released an announcement stating that it would open free withdrawals before November 27, while promising 100% reserves and no bank runs would occur. Source: OKEx Official Website This marks exactly 35 days since OKEx suspended withdrawals. On October 16, OKEx released an announcement stating that some of the company's private key holders were cooperating with public security authorities in an investigation and were out of contact, making it impossible to complete authorization. OKEx decided to suspend user withdrawals as a result.
What remains in DeFi after liquidity retreats? This is a question worth thinking about. Maizi Wallet Product Manager Lu Yaoyuan explores this question's answer in detail for us. In this impulsive bull market, we need more thoughtful consideration. Below is the live stream transcript: Liquidity mining, simply put, is a mining method where assets are staked in some way to provide trading or similar liquidity, earning incentive tokens. I won't expand on the concept, but let's start by talking about Compound, the leader of this wave of liquidity mining.

This year, testing of the digital RMB wallet again aroused great interest among the general public. Therefore, I decided to write this CBDC handbook to help everyone better understand CBDC. Two years have passed since I wrote the "Stablecoin Handbook." In these two years, the development of stablecoins has completely moved in the direction of "embracing sovereign credit currencies." In essence, they are still borrowing US dollar credit to construct their own quasi-offshore US dollar (virtual/digital) currency systems, completely deviating from the monetary utopian spirit of traditional digital currencies.
On November 18, real-time data from Huobi Global showed that Bitcoin surged past the $18,000 mark in one move. As of press time, Bitcoin's price has stabilized around $18,100, creating a new year-high once again. This comes just 6 days after Bitcoin broke through $16,000. Bitcoin, like a wild horse, has shown impressive performance in the secondary market, once again igniting enthusiasm for retail investors to enter the market.
All markets experience fluctuations, ups and downs, and quiet periods. Sometimes market enthusiasm—or pure greed—drives bull markets, but sometimes it also leads to bubble formation. DeFi has been popular for some time, with some projects being very successful while others are still immature. But looking ahead, we can see that despite potential market corrections, DeFi and related developments in the industry continue, and we also expect more growth in this field.
"SBF donated $5.22 million to Biden!" On November 5, the third day of the US election, when Democratic presidential candidate Biden was temporarily leading with 264 votes versus Trump's 214 votes, news of Sam Bankman-Fried's (hereinafter referred to as SBF) donation to Biden suddenly circulated among various WeChat groups. Some commented that this money "he's already earned back from shorting DeFi," while others praised him as "truly a trader who bets on everything."
Recently, PeckShield detected that the DeFi protocol Origin Protocol's stablecoin OUSD was attacked. The attacker used flash loans from derivatives platform dYdX to conduct a re-entrancy attack, causing losses of $7.7 million in ETH and DAI.
Decentralized Finance (DeFi) took over the crypto world in summer. But after September, its popularity declined somewhat, and it subsequently fell behind BTC and ETH. In this week's feature, we explored the rapid rise of DeFi tokens as well as DeFi's market cap and current usage. This is DeFi's third surge. Although it seems to have appeared overnight, DeFi has existed for years.
Hackers used flash loans to extract $16.4 million in ETH and DAI from DeFi projects Akropolis, Value DeFi Protocol, and Origin Protocol. The attacker in the Value DeFi attack exchanged ETH obtained through flash loans for DAI and USDT, depositing some DAI into Value DeFi's multi-stablecoin yield farming pool.

Escaping three years of bear market, Bitcoin has been one of the best-performing assets this year. Compared to other macro assets, Bitcoin has outperformed its peers in traditional financial markets. Earlier this year, Paul Tudor Jones, a renowned hedge fund manager at Tudor Investment Corporation, publicly announced that Bitcoin is the "fastest horse" in the current macro environment, and it appears Bitcoin has delivered—breaking through $17,000 so far this week, a 148% increase.
In the past two days, the price of Bitcoin has risen above $18,000 and has been continuously climbing recently. Clearly, the market is currently filled with optimistic sentiment about Bitcoin. This optimism is justified—after all, American institutional and individual investors are beginning to invest more capital into Bitcoin, which naturally drives up the price of Bitcoin. However, under current market sentiment, it is still necessary to make objective judgments about Bitcoin's essence and its risks, to avoid making wrong investment decisions under the influence of emotion.
In this AMA, Chain Vision invited KIRA's CEO & CTO - Milana Valmont & Mateusz to explain cross-chain liquid staking DeFi innovation and how it empowers new governance models! KIRA is a decentralized network that allows you to utilize 100% of your capital and provide market access for any digital tokens in the cross-chain ecosystem.
The market has been completely drawn to Bitcoin's performance at $18,000, while Ethereum, which hit new highs for the year, has been barely discussed. Contract address balances continue to accumulate and grow, and the December 1st official launch date suggests ETH2 is on track. But what many don't know is that the community still has significant disagreements, such as whether to use sharding for data storage, the merge after consensus transition, and even the possibility of hard forks.
OKEx Evening Report will bring you the latest market updates and industry dynamics each evening. It helps investors understand daily news in the shortest time and better grasp daily market trends. Market Snapshot On November 18th, BTC broke through the $18,000 mark today, reaching the highest level since December 2017, with a daily increase of more than 4%.
Author: Kylin Editor: Xiaohui Starting from the evening of November 17th, Bitcoin continuously surged, breaking through the $17,000 mark and skyrocketing. On November 18th at noon, Bitcoin reached a new high of $18,000, hitting $18,400, setting the highest level for the year and the highest price level since December 2017.
With the release of Ethereum's deposit contract, people are becoming increasingly interested in ETH2.0. ETH2.0 is an upgrade to the current Ethereum that addresses Ethereum's scalability and fee issues. Over the past few months, almost all crypto users have felt deeply: Ethereum is too congested, and fees are too expensive. ETH2.0 aims to change the consensus mechanism, implement sharding, alleviate Ethereum's congestion problem, and build better infrastructure for the DeFi ecosystem. So what is different between ETH2.0 and today's Ethereum? First, two different chains will initially exist.
Key Takeaways 1. DeFi continued to develop strongly in Q3, with total locked value growing 500% from Q2 to reach $11.4B. In October, the DeFi market cooled relatively, with end-of-month locked value roughly equal to beginning-of-month levels. Overall DEX trading volume declined 34% in October; 2. The DeFi boom pushed Ethereum transaction fees to a historical peak of average $14/transaction in early September. DeFi performance is clearly driven by hot projects and events like yearn.finance; 3. The oracle project Chainlink has long occupied the top position in the DeFi market cap rankings.
Author: Kan Jia, Ph.D. in Cryptography, Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University Once met a big shot in the crypto world who made a stunning conclusion: "You really can't play in this industry without your own token." I was initially resistant—another air coin prettified so convincingly. But upon careful deliberation, I found I couldn't refute it. Regarding ICO, we can cite many examples of cutting leeks, but returning to public blockchains like Bitcoin and Ethereum, how would miners be rewarded without tokens? Is it really possible to remove virtual tokens from public blockchains? The impact of the 1023 policy is far less than 94's three years ago.
Tell ordinary people unfamiliar with Bitcoin that these are all misconceptions about it. There remains considerable criticism and misunderstanding surrounding Bitcoin. Let us review and respond to these. The following are the most common criticisms we have discussed multiple times, but given the recent surge in Bitcoin attention, we want to share updated responses. Specifically: Bitcoin's price is too volatile to serve as a store of value. Bitcoin cannot be a means of payment. Bitcoin is a waste of resources. Bitcoin is used for illegal activities. Bitcoin is not backed by anything. Bitcoin will be replaced by competitors.
Polkadot, known as the "chain of all chains," has enormous potential. Phala's goal is simple yet resolute: to become a parachain in the Polkadot ecosystem. Founded in mid-2018, Phala is one of China's earliest parachain projects and among the first blockchains to use the Substrate framework. After more than two years of accumulation and active technological development, Phala has made significant progress in privacy infrastructure for smart contracts and other Polkadot ecosystem areas, securing multiple grants over the years.
Starting in June 2020, the total value locked in DeFi (Decentralized Finance) began an unprecedented surge, rapidly breaking through from billion-dollar to billion-dollar levels with lightning speed. Such fervor inevitably recalls the industry's "surge period" in 2017. By October, DeFi market enthusiasm remained overall, but localized declines were evident. While unknown if this DeFi symphony will come to an end, the emergence of another rising star has already captured countless eyes. Indeed, it is NFT.
Privacy technology has always been a major hot field in the blockchain industry, as evidenced by the endless stream of privacy coins. Dash, Monero, Zcash, Grin, and others—the continuous advancement of privacy technology has enriched the privacy coin ecosystem, while in turn, promoting the maturation of privacy technology. The past year was a turning point for privacy technology, with early privacy coins encountering development bottlenecks and slow progress, while new privacy newcomers have emerged in succession. Even mainstream coins have begun deploying privacy protocol plans, making the competitive landscape of privacy technology increasingly fierce.
Author | Adelyn Zhou Since the beginning of this year, the Decentralized Finance (DeFi) ecosystem has rapidly developed to over $12 billion in total value locked. With such exponential growth, malicious actors have increased motivation to manipulate and attack vulnerable DeFi protocols, often at the expense of ordinary users. One of the tools recently used in many DeFi attacks is flash loans—a new type of financial primitive that allows users to take out unsecured loans, with the only condition being that the loan must be repaid within the same block, otherwise it will be revoked.
Vision In 2018, when the Darma Cash (DMCH) project was established, we already clarified that the DeFi ecosystem based on DMCH would be an important component of the DMCH ecosystem. In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic broke out, the global economy entered recession, and currency liquidity severely declined. Therefore, the AMM Pool based on DeFi concepts became popular throughout the industry. Clearly, Ethereum benefited from the popularity of this AMM Pool and saw excellent applications like Uniswap emerge.
Due to high liquidity mining yields, Ethereum's DeFi ecosystem sparked a crypto economic storm in 2020, with DeFi governance tokens receiving significant attention. However, building positions among numerous DeFi tokens is quite troublesome—you need to purchase tokens one by one, which is time-consuming and costly (requiring multiple gas fees when trading on DEXs). DeFi token indices emerged in response to these issues.
The governance aggregation platform Snapshot's gas-free voting solution has resolved the biggest pain point in the operation and governance of decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), and may facilitate a novel experiment in layered governance structures. After numerous Decentralized Finance (DeFi) protocols issued governance tokens, attention returned to blockchain governance issues. How to choose tools for effective protocol governance has become a major question. Good news: Years of infrastructure building mean Ethereum has no shortage of protocols, platforms, and tools specifically focused on various governance services.
