Новый советник Трампа по криптовалютам оказался фанатом Solana

Бывший операционный директор PayPal, названный Дональдом Трампом «царем криптовалют», оказался ярым сторонником Solana и инвестором Multicoin Capital. Дэвид Сакс (David Sacks), получивший 5 декабря должность советника по криптовалютам и искусственному интеллекту, не скрывает свою приверженность к этой криптовалюте.

Преданность Solana во времена кризиса

В октябре 2021 года Сакс публично заявил о приобретении значительного количества SOL со скидкой. Примечательно, что даже после краха FTX, тесно связанного с Solana, он сохранил свои позиции. В декабре 2023 года в 159-м выпуске подкаста All-In Сакс подчеркнул впечатляющую годовую доходность SOL в 92%.

«Некоторые недобросовестные участники рынка без каких-либо доказательств обвинили нас в покупке Solana со скидкой и последующем сбросе на розничных инвесторов. Это неправда», — заявил Сакс, добавив: «Скажем так: те из нас, кто до сих пор держит Solana, сейчас очень довольны».

Амбициозные заявления о будущем Solana

В 2021 году будущий советник Трампа сделал смелое предположение о потенциале Solana превзойти Ethereum: «Многие представители умных денег в Кремниевой долине делают ставку на то, что Solana в конечном итоге может обойти Ethereum как предпочтительная платформа».

На момент написания статьи Solana занимает пятое место среди криптоактивов с капитализацией $111,8 млрд, уступая только биткоину, Ethereum, Tether и XRP.

Связи с Multicoin Capital

В 2018 году Сакс стал одним из инвесторов Multicoin Capital — фирмы, специализирующейся на инвестициях в Solana. «Они не просто трейдеры, а технологи, умеющие оценивать развивающиеся технологии в чрезвычайно динамичном и быстро меняющемся пространстве», — объяснил он свое решение.

Назначение убежденного сторонника Solana на пост советника по криптовалютам может существенно повлиять на развитие регулирования отрасли в США.

US CFTC Launches Broad Investigation into Polymarket, Is the Prediction Market Party Coming to an End?

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is conducting a broad investigation into the prediction market platform Polymarket, focusing on its business practices including social media promotions. This follows a bipartisan letter from U.S. senators urging the CFTC to probe alleged fraudulent marketing tactics used to promote gambling-like products. The action coincides with a period of explosive growth for the prediction market sector, driven by events like the World Cup, with platforms like Kalshi and Robinhood reporting record trading volumes and revenue. The investigation signals a potential end to the sector's unregulated expansion and may lead to clearer federal oversight, particularly regarding investor protection and distinguishing prediction markets from traditional sports betting. The CFTC's move has also intensified a jurisdictional conflict with multiple U.S. states (including Kentucky and New York), which have sued platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi, accusing them of operating illegal sports betting and threatening state gambling tax revenues. Furthermore, the CME Group has sued the CFTC, challenging its approval of certain prediction market products. The report also highlights the political and capital interests intertwined with the industry. Donald Trump Jr. holds advisory and investment roles in both Kalshi and Polymarket, and the Trump administration has previously emphasized federal regulatory authority over these markets. The CFTC's investigation into Polymarket is framed as a step towards formalizing the industry's regulatory landscape, moving it from a phase of "wild growth" towards a more structured future.

U.S. CFTC Launches Extensive Investigation into Polymarket, Is the Prediction Market Frenzy Season Cooling Down?

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has launched a broad investigation into the prediction market platform Polymarket, focusing on its business practices including social media activities. This follows a bipartisan letter from U.S. senators urging the CFTC to probe allegations of paid influencer false marketing and fraudulent promotion of gambling-like products to American users. The investigation comes as the prediction market sector experiences explosive growth, largely driven by the World Cup. Weekly trading volumes have hit record highs, exceeding $14.4 billion, with platforms like Kalshi and Robinhood's new venture seeing significant activity. Major firms like Meta are also showing interest in the space. This regulatory scrutiny signals a potential end to the sector's "wild growth" phase. The CFTC's move also highlights an escalating jurisdictional conflict between federal regulators and state authorities. Over a dozen states, including Kentucky and New York, have sued platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi, accusing them of operating illegal sports betting, which threatens state gambling tax revenues. The CFTC is countersuing to assert its exclusive federal jurisdiction over these "event contracts" as derivatives. Furthermore, the CFTC's approval of Kalshi's Bitcoin perpetual futures contract has sparked a lawsuit from traditional exchange CME, alleging regulatory overreach. The political and capital landscape is intricate, with Donald Trump Jr. holding advisory roles and investments in both Kalshi and Polymarket. This connects capital, political influence, and regulatory bodies, suggesting the current investigation may be a step toward formalizing the industry's rules rather than halting its progress.
