稳定币是瑞士不记名存折的数字版本。

在瑞士出台反洗钱法之前,任何人都可以走进瑞士银行开立账户,无需出示任何身份证件。然后银行会给你一本不记名存折,也称为 inhabersparheften。当时银行认为,拥有存折即为拥有账户中基础资金的证明。开户人可以保留存折,或者,如果他们愿意,可以在不通知银行的情况下将存折转交给其他人,而这个人可以提取账户中的资金。

从本质上讲,瑞士银行发行的是他们自己的现金。

随着时间的推移,社会对洗钱的认识不断提高,瑞士不记名储蓄账簿的使用受到了法律的限制。1977 年,银行首次被要求确认开户客户的身份。此外,任何想要提取超过 25,000 瑞士法郎的人都必须得到银行的身份确认。但储蓄账簿仍然享有相当程度的匿名性。开户后、提款前,账簿可以继续流通,无需身份检查。

2003 年,瑞士政府禁止发行新的不记名储蓄账簿,现有的储蓄账簿提交给银行的实体柜台时将被注销。不记名储蓄账簿可以继续像现金一样匿名地在人们手中流通,但由于不断被注销,到 2019 年,它们仅占瑞士银行账户总资产的 0.002%。

瑞士不记名储蓄账簿就此终结。但与此同时,一种类似的金融工具出现了:稳定币。

要获得稳定币,你需要向发行人存入资金,存款时发行人会验证你的身份,但此后稳定币可以自由流通,无需任何形式的检查。你可以把它们发送给朋友,他可以把它们送给海外的亲戚,亲戚可以把它们转给毒贩,这些后续的所有参与者都不需要向发行人出示身份证明。稳定币发行人就像曾经发行不记名储蓄账簿的瑞士银行一样,不知道他们在与谁打交道。

那么,如果瑞士不记名储蓄账簿早已被禁止,为什么稳定币却快速增长呢?

这正是瑞士金融监管机构 FINMA 上个月提出的观点,FINMA 表示将不再容忍稳定币的匿名转移。新指南指出,任何持有稳定币的人的身份都必须「得到发行机构的充分验证」。所以不仅你本人,你的朋友,他的亲戚,以及上述交易链中的毒贩都需要提供他们的身份证。

为了证明新政策的合理性,FINMA 诉诸技术中立的理念。我对技术中立的看法是,仅仅因为一种金融产品(在本例中是支付产品)出现在一种新媒介或基底(即区块链)上,并不意味着它可以免于已经适用于在旧基底上发行的等效产品(如银行存折)的相同规则。相同的功能,相同的规定。

到目前为止,像 Tether 这样的稳定币发行人一直试图通过抵触法律来规避这些身份识别要求,即只有稳定币的主要持有人(最初存入资金以获得稳定币的人)才是他们的客户,因此他们只对这批持有人负有尽职调查义务。二级、三级和后续持有人不是「客户」,因此发行人表示不需要知道他们是谁。

但 FINMA 并不认同这一观点,这是理所当然的。FINMA 表示,所有持有人(不仅仅是主要持有人)都与发行人有「永久的业务关系」,因此必须识别每个人的身份。你当然可以理解为什么 FINMA 想要解决这个问题。如果普通瑞士银行都看到稳定币享受特殊待遇,那么他们都会加入这一行列,转而使用新的基础货币。

FINMA 的指南似乎不是什么大事。目前只有两种瑞士法郎稳定币适用该指南,而且规模都很小。Bitcoin Suisse 的 XCHF 流通量不到 100 万瑞士法郎,而 Centi 的 CCHF 的规模也差不多。

但作为全球金融体系中扮演重要角色的监管机构,FINMA 很可能会被其他监管机构效仿。更重要的是,FINMA 是金融行动特别工作组 (FATF) 的成员,该组织是一个代表 38 个主要国家反洗钱机构的合作组织。FATF 通过将未能采用这些标准的国家列入黑名单来促进全球反洗钱标准。如果 FINMA 的稳定币政策表明 FATF 正在采取一种新的稳定币策略,那么预计它会被大范围采用。

令我惊讶的是,一家重要的全球监管机构花了这么长时间才就稳定币匿名性问题做出具体裁决。是时候了,标准的反洗钱实践要求金融机构核实谁在使用他们的平台,稳定币发行人不应该搭便车。

Beyond the Model Lies the Harness: Deepseek Enters the Arena, Why Has the Main Battlefield of China's AI Competition Shifted?

In mid-to-late May 2026, Deepseek internally established a new Harness team focused on code agent products, internally benchmarked against Anthropic's Claude Code. This move, marked by the formula "Model + Harness = Agent" in their job postings, signals a major shift in China's AI competition: the main battlefield is transitioning from developing large models to building toolchains and achieving workplace integration. Deepseek's direct involvement in Harness development aims to secure control over interface design and training data feedback loops, moving beyond open-sourcing powerful models. Harness, the runtime infrastructure for AI agents, handles everything beyond model reasoning—task orchestration, tool calling, context management, safety checks, and error recovery. It is crucial because agent products are not just outputs of model capability but also training grounds for it. Real-world task failures recorded by Harness can feed back into model training, creating a flywheel effect. Engineering Harness is more critical than optimizing prompts, as poor context management or error handling can drastically reduce agent success rates in multi-step, real-world scenarios. This shift is not isolated. Other major Chinese tech companies are also pursuing differentiated toolchain strategies. Tencent leverages its enterprise ecosystem (WeChat Work, Tencent Cloud) to build connectors for organizational-level AI collaboration and complex task delivery. Alibaba focuses on lowering automation barriers on the web with a front-end, browser-based GUI Agent framework, PageAgent. This diversification shows the industry recognizes that success lies not in a perfect general agent, but in vertically focused solutions built with robust engineering. The trend is validated by overseas success, such as Poland's Viktor, an AI coworker on Slack achieving $20M ARR by autonomously executing complex, multi-step tasks. This proves a shift in enterprise willingness to pay—from "AI-assisted generation" to "AI-autonomous execution." As Harness matures to provide safety guards and reliability, AI transitions from a human-supervised intern to an independent outsourcer. The competition now faces key engineering challenges: preventing "token explosion" through intelligent context compression, and building "thick frameworks" with features like sandbox isolation and checkpoint recovery for enterprise-grade stability. Geopolitical restrictions on tools like Claude Code further create a significant market vacuum for domestic solutions like Deepseek's Harness. For enterprises and developers, the focus must shift from comparing model benchmarks to evaluating a vendor's engineering capabilities, error recovery mechanisms, context management, and ecosystem compatibility when choosing AI products and platforms.

Soaring Export Data for Memory Chips, Market Is Redefining the Valuation Anchor for Memory Stocks

Korean storage export data for the first 20 days of June shows substantial year-on-year increases in both value and price-per-kilogram for categories like DRAM, NAND, and SSDs. This signals a potential shift beyond simple demand recovery, indicating rising prices and a product mix shift towards higher-value items, possibly influenced by AI infrastructure needs. A key point is that the surge in price-per-kilogram is not simply a uniform chip price hike. It reflects a combination of actual price increases and, more importantly, an export structure increasingly dominated by high-value-density products like HBM (High-Bandwidth Memory) and advanced DRAM, which are critical for AI servers. This suggests AI-driven demand may be spilling over from just HBM into broader memory markets. SK Hynix stands to benefit directly due to its leading HBM position. For Samsung and Micron, the implication is potential for greater margin elasticity if the tightness in high-end memory spreads to enterprise SSD and NAND prices. However, the storage sector remains cyclical. Risks include supply expansion, inventory changes, and potential slowdowns in broader AI capital expenditure. Ultimately, while the strong export data supports upward revisions for storage company earnings and fuels discussion of an "AI infrastructure bottleneck premium," a definitive valuation shift from a cyclical to a structural story depends on upcoming quarterly reports. Investors need confirmation from SK Hynix, Samsung, and Micron that improvements in average selling prices, product mix, and, crucially,毛利率 are sustained over multiple quarters.

Why Does SpaceX Have Such a High Valuation Ceiling? The Answer Lies in Musk's Business Blueprint

SpaceX achieved a record-breaking IPO on June 12, 2026, with its market cap surging past $2.1 trillion. This valuation reflects its central role within Elon Musk's expansive, interconnected technological ecosystem. The article details how four core components form a synergistic closed-loop system: 1) **The "Brain" (xAI & Orbital Compute):** xAI provides AI models and massive ground/space-based supercomputing for simulation and decision-making across the system. 2) **The "Neural Logistics Core" (Starlink & Starship):** Starlink's low-latency satellite network enables global data transmission, while Starship's low-cost, reusable launch capacity aims to make large-scale space deployment economically viable. 3) **The "Physical Body" (Tesla & Optimus):** Tesla's manufacturing prowess and energy products support hardware production and power, pivoting toward mass-producing the Optimus humanoid robot for terrestrial and potential space-based labor. 4) **The "Human Interface" (Neuralink & X):** Neuralink seeks direct brain-computer communication, and the X platform provides real-time societal data. Together, these elements create three reinforcing "flywheels": manufacturing/logistics, data-driven iteration, and energy/compute/network synergy. This integrated approach promises lower costs, faster innovation cycles, and potential infrastructure-as-a-service offerings. However, it also concentrates technical, regulatory, and corporate governance risks. Ultimately, SpaceX's high valuation stems from its position as the indispensable infrastructural backbone—handling space transport, global communications, and future orbital computing—tying together Musk's entire vision for a self-reinforcing technological empire.
