1. The Three-Disk Theory: The Ultimate Guide to Ponzi Scheme Construction

2. Let’s talk about our views on Binance Alpha: Can the BSC ecosystem recover?
A rumor I heard before was that Binance did not list BSC ecosystem tokens to avoid suspicion. The change in attitude may be the direct cause of the decline of the BSC ecosystem - because the expectation of listing on Binance is gone. And now, we can clearly see the change in Binance's attitude towards the BSC project/meme. This change may inject a shot of adrenaline into BSC ecosystem users. On a one-year scale, BNB Chain ranks seventh in Netflow, while on a three-month time scale, BNB Chain ranks fifth in Netflow. We can understand this phenomenon as the beginning of a trend reversal.

5. What are the major trends in crypto venture capital for 2025? What do industry leaders say?
With the establishment of the most supportive administrative and legislative bodies for cryptocurrency in U.S. history, it is hard to overstate the potential impact this could have on the cryptocurrency industry. With a more favorable SEC, we anticipate a reduction in enforcement actions, clearer regulations, and an increased likelihood of blockchain companies being listed in the U.S. We are also more optimistic than ever that banks will be more open to participating in cryptocurrency, introducing stablecoin legislation, and broader cryptocurrency market infrastructure bills.
