According to the grapevine, this coin is about to skyrocket. The news is reliable and smart money is buying in!
Bitcoin surges to $100,000, are the whales running away? What important benefits will Sol, ETH, WIF and Bitcoin have in the future? Let's follow Shuqin to find out~

The first is the big news that broke out recently. Fox beauty reporter Terrett said that according to two people familiar with the matter, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is negotiating with the issuer of the Sol spot ETF and has made very great progress.
These sources indicate that we will likely see applicants submit 19B-4 documents for ETFs in the next week or two, which would be a qualitative leap.

Despite the rapid development of DeFi in recent years, innovation in the industry has noticeably slowed down. DeFi protocols frequently face security challenges, with regular attacks due to vulnerabilities, leading to substantial user losses. For example, the Radiant Capital hack resulted in over $50 million in losses. In this context, BounceBit emerges as a pioneer in the CeDeFi space, offering a solution that leverages decentralized blockchain ledgers and @CeffuGlobal technology for on-chain settlement, significantly enhancing transparency and security.
Our innovation at BounceBit goes beyond technical architecture to present a unique business model advantage. Unlike projects that rely solely on tokenomics, we've built a sustainable operation with healthy cash flow that delivers consistent returns to our users while maintaining stable operations. This profitable approach gives us a distinct competitive advantage in the CeDeFi landscape.
We emerged from a clear need in the market, bringing together CeFi's stability with DeFi's innovation to create an efficient and secure asset management solution for our users. In this article, we'll explore how our unique CeDeFi asset management framework achieves higher, more stable returns.
What is CeDeFi?
CeDeFi is the fusion of CeFi and DeFi, bridging the gap between traditional finance and DeFi innovations, addressing core issues such as security, accessibility, and yield. While DeFi is flexible, it is also prone to attacks, whereas CeFi offers significant advantages in security and compliance. CeDeFi integrates the strengths of both, ensuring the security and stable returns of CeFi while maintaining the permissionless, open nature of DeFi, making investments more transparent and accessible.
One strategy in CeDeFi is funding rate arbitrage, combining CeFi’s security with DeFi’s flexibility. Users can capitalize on the interest rate differential between CeFi and DeFi for delta-neutral arbitrage, effectively controlling risk while achieving substantial returns.
In CeDeFi, users do not need to directly deposit Bitcoin assets to an exchange but instead use technologies like Ceffu MirrorX to establish an isolated custody and BounceBit for settlement. Tokens are locked within this network, generating 1:1 mirrored tokens for use in CeDeFi activities with original tokens securely stored in isolated custody. This model greatly enhances asset security while offering substantial CeDeFi returns.
Current Industry Challenges
1. Frequent Security Vulnerabilities in DeFi Platforms
While DeFi has advanced the crypto industry, security remains a significant challenge. Many DeFi protocols suffer from attacks due to smart contract vulnerabilities and weak access control, resulting in massive losses and diminishing user confidence in DeFi. Just last week, users of DEXX - a trading bot - lost all of their assets because their private keys were leaked.
According to a report by Hacken, access control vulnerabilities alone caused over $316 million in losses in Q3 2023, accounting for 70% of the total stolen crypto assets for that quarter.
Additionally, phishing attacks and smart contract vulnerabilities frequently expose weaknesses in decentralized protocols.
2. Practical Challenges to Full Decentralization
Although decentralization is a core principle of crypto, full decentralization is often hard to achieve in practice. Most projects ultimately rely on some degree of centralization to ensure fund security and operational efficiency. Even projects claiming full decentralization, like Babylon, adopt centralized custody services. This shows that relying solely on decentralization for all needs is impractical. In many cases, moderate centralization for security and compliance better supports project stability.
Often it is argued that the state of centralization is only a temporary solution, however this is yet to be proven to be feasible in the long run.
3. The Convergence of CeFi and DeFi
Given these challenges, the convergence of CeFi and DeFi is becoming an trend. Many in the industry believe that embracing centralization’s strengths combined with DeFi is the way forward.
From a user fund protection perspective, DeFiance's Arthur noted on Twitter that if a protocol holds significant user funds, it must use high-standard, institution-grade custody solutions for absolute security. For protocols managing multi-signature wallets, hardware wallets and multi-signature setups alone are just not sufficient to secure large funds.
From a user experience perspective, the CeFi and DeFi combination enhances asset liquidity and offers users diverse yield opportunities. BounceBit is exploring CeDeFi’s development by merging CeFi’s stability with DeFi’s innovation.
Overview and Advantages of BounceBit
As the first project launched with Binance Megadrop, we've built a multi-chain CeDeFi architecture that combines blockchain automated settlement with Ceffu technology. Through this innovative setup, we successfully bridge professional trading teams with everyday users, delivering institution-grade returns.
Since our launch in February 2024, we're proud to have generated approximately $16 million in returns for our users. Following our official launch in May, we expanded our offerings to include fixed income products, launched a collaborative project with Ethena, and introduced various liquidity products.
With our V2 release, we've grown beyond Bitcoin (BTC) to embrace multiple digital assets including ETH, SOL, and BNB. This multi-chain support makes operations simpler for our users while providing broader investment choices, enhancing both the flexibility and appeal of our platform.
Advantage 1: CeDeFi Innovation and Enhanced User Experience
In V1, we pioneered Liquidity Custody Tokens (LCT), enabling our users to maintain liquidity while earning returns. When users deposit assets like BTC and USD, they receive our 1:1 mirrored tokens (BBTC, BBUSD), which can be restaked or utilized within our BounceClub ecosystem for various investments. Our LCTs innovation allows assets to generate returns while staying liquid. We're proud to see this model widely emulated since launch, demonstrating strong industry recognition.
With our V2 upgrade, we've enhanced user experience by improving yield transparency and simplifying cross-chain operations. We've eliminated the need for technical expertise, making our CeDeFi products easily accessible. Our goal is to make CeDeFi investing as straightforward as traditional finance, especially for DeFi newcomers.
We've also introduced a daily rebase mechanism in V2, where token balances automatically reflect daily earnings. By implementing the ERC-4626 tokenized vault smart contract standard, we've made it simple for users to subscribe or partially redeem positions without distinguishing between principal and interest, streamlining the investment process.
Advantage 2: Diversified Asset Allocation + Market Strategy Optimization = Maximized Returns
BounceBit V2 supports multiple assets, including BTC, ETH, and SOL, offering a broad range of investment choices. With multi-chain architecture, users can manage asset strategies on any chain, avoiding the complexities of cross-chain operations. Diversified asset allocation reduces investment risk while adding flexibility and optimization options to user portfolios.
For example, during high market volatility, users may allocate funds to BTC or stablecoins for stability; in bull markets, they can invest in high-growth assets like ETH and SOL to maximize returns.
BounceBit V2’s diversified product suite includes fixed income, manual strategies, auto strategies, and structured products (coming soon), tailored to various market conditions. Automation and flexible liquidity allocation help users achieve returns across different market phases.
Risk Control in Bear Markets: During market downturns, BounceBit optimizes allocations to fixed-income, low-risk products, providing safe options for users. The high liquidity of the CeDeFi platform enables users to safeguard funds in turbulent conditions.Maximized Gains in Bull Markets: During market upswings, BounceBit increases high-yield product allocation. In auto strategies, the system dynamically emphasizes assets like ETH and SOL with high growth potential, offering users high-return option products.Flexible Allocation in Volatile Markets: In volatile markets, structured products (e.g., Shark Fin) hedge for stable returns while capturing potential high gains from volatility. Our strategy optimization system adjusts allocation based on market fluctuations, providing stable returns for users.
Advantage 3: Comprehensive Asset Management and On-Chain Incentive System
BounceClub, at the core of BounceBit V2’s incentives, offers gamified rewards like referral commissions, task rewards, and new product launches. Users can manage assets and earn additional returns through platform activities, achieving "play-and-earn" benefits. BounceClub is not just for entertainment; it serves as an investment enhancement tool, forming a complete asset management and incentive system alongside the CeDeFi Portal.
The incentive system revolves around $BB tokens, allowing users to engage in various activities like Quanto contracts, IDO entries, and exclusive benefits. These use cases increase BB token utilities and value, benefiting users on all fronts.
BounceClub’s tiered incentive structure for loyal users offers cumulative points and tier upgrades for additional rewards.
BounceClub is a social and a rewarding platform, with the goal of boosting BounceBit’s user retention and enhancing its competitive edge.
Advantage 4: A Sustainable Business Model
our business model leverages CeDeFi's core strengths to provide stable returns while ensuring sustainable development. Through fees from asset management, gas fees, and BB token utility, the protocol maintains stable cash flow, reducing dependency on token economics and mitigating market volatility risks.
Unlike projects that rely on high-risk strategies for traction, we focus on sustainable yields, generating revenue through our diversified products and innovative CeDeFi architecture.
We're proud to be user-centric, continuously innovating and strengthening our market position in CeDeFi. This sustainable model ensures our platform's long-term continuity.

Decentralization is messy. People are imperfect. Pushing power from the center to the edges introduces more randomness into the system.
As described by E. Glen Weyl, Puja Ohlhaver, Vitalik Buterin in (Decentralized Society: Finding Web3’s Soul):

“In less than a decade, Web3 has astounded the world by creating a unique and flexible parallel financial system unlike anything ever created. Foundational elements in cryptography and economics, such as public key cryptography, smart contracts, proof of work, and proof of stake, have enabled a complex and open ecosystem for financial transactions. However, the economic value of financial transactions is generated by humans and their relationships. Because Web3 lacks foundational elements to represent this social identity, it is fundamentally dependent on the centralized Web2 structure it seeks to transcend, and therefore replicates its limitations.
