Разворот на 180 градусов: Майкл Сейлор пересмотрел взгляды на хранение криптовалют

cryptonews.ruPubblicato 2024-01-24Pubblicato ultima volta 2024-10-24

Майкл Сейлор (Michael Saylor) неожиданно изменил свою позицию по поводу самостоятельного хранения криптовалют после шквала критики со стороны ведущих экспертов отрасли. В своем посте в соцсети X он поспешил заявить о поддержке права на самостоятельное хранение для всех желающих.

Еще совсем недавно основатель MicroStrategy настаивал на том, что держать биткоин нужно через регулируемые организации вроде BlackRock и Fidelity. В интервью журналистке NZ Herald Мэдисон Рейди (Madison Reidy) он утверждал, что такой подход якобы снижает волатильность и риск потери средств. А всех, кто беспокоится о растущей централизации и государственном контроле, он и вовсе назвал «параноидальными криптоанархистами».

Критика со стороны лидеров индустрии

Такая позиция вызвала резкую реакцию в криптосообществе. Сооснователь Ethereum Виталик Бутерин (Vitalik Buterin) не стал подбирать дипломатичные выражения: «Открыто заявляю, что считаю комментарии Майкла Сейлора совершенно безумными. Похоже, он откровенно выступает за регуляторный захват криптовалют. История знает множество примеров провала такой стратегии, и для меня это противоречит самой сути криптовалют».

Сооснователь и технический директор Casa Джеймсон Лопп (Jameson Lopp) подчеркнул важность самостоятельного хранения для:

Поддержания децентрализации
Усиления безопасности сети
Сохранения участия в управлении
Развития инноваций без зависимости от третьих сторон

Еще жестче высказался биткоин-пионер Макс Кайзер (Max Keiser): «Недавние нападки на самостоятельное хранение демонстрируют регрессивную тенденцию поддерживать тех самых централизованных банковских мошенников, проблему которых решает биткоин».

На фоне успеха биткоин-ETF

Интересно, что дискуссия разворачивается на фоне впечатляющего успеха спотовых биткоин-ETF в США. Суммарный чистый приток средств в 12 фондов превысил $20 млрд. По словам аналитика Bloomberg Эрика Балчунаса (Eric Balchunas), это один из самых сложных показателей для достижения в мире ETF.

После шквала критики Сейлор попытался сгладить ситуацию, заявив: «Биткоин выигрывает от любых форм инвестиций со стороны всех типов организаций и должен приветствовать каждого».

DeFi Enters a Moment of Value Reassessment: Risks and Opportunities Behind the $70 Billion TVL

DeFi Enters a Moment of Value Reassessment: Peril and Opportunity Behind $70 Billion TVL On July 1st, the total value locked (TVL) across all DeFi protocols fell below $70 billion to approximately $69.358 billion, hitting its lowest point since February 2024. This decline signals a significant contraction in DeFi liquidity and marks a new adjustment phase for the industry, far from its 2021 peak of over $180 billion. The primary drivers of this TVL drop are a general decrease in crypto market risk appetite, which leads capital to exit volatile sectors like DeFi first, and the fading effectiveness of the high-yield liquidity incentive models that fueled the initial DeFi boom. Many protocols' high TVL figures were built on temporary subsidy-driven capital rather than genuine demand. Furthermore, capital is migrating to newer narratives like AI, RWA, and modular infrastructure. This cooldown exposes DeFi's growth bottlenecks: innovation has slowed with rampant protocol copycats, real yields have normalized to single digits, and poor user experience continues to hinder mass adoption beyond crypto-natives. However, the TVL decline does not spell the end for DeFi. The metric itself is limited, as it fluctuates with underlying asset prices. The industry is shifting from capital accumulation to efficiency competition, leveraging Layer 2 solutions and modular architecture to do more with less locked value. Crucially, DeFi is expanding into real-world financial use cases like the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA) and the growth of the stablecoin ecosystem, moving its value proposition from speculative token subsidies to real cash flows. In conclusion, while short-term pressures from liquidity contraction and user growth stagnation persist, the sector is undergoing a necessary value reassessment. DeFi is transitioning from a subsidy-driven, hype-based era toward a more mature, rational, and efficiency-focused phase, with long-term growth hinging on meeting real-world financial needs through RWA, stablecoins, and robust infrastructure.

Crypto firms lead 2026 U.S. election donations with $189M: ‘Legalized bribery!’

Crypto industry leads corporate political spending for the 2026 U.S. midterm elections with a record $189 million, according to FEC data. This surpasses its 2024 total and accounts for over a third of all corporate donations. Major donors include a16z, Ripple Labs, and Coinbase, with funds largely supporting pro-crypto candidates, primarily Republicans. Key goals include passing the stalled CLARITY Act and protecting recent regulatory gains. Critics, like Senator Bernie Sanders, label the spending "legalized bribery."

Solana Token Launches Hit 80-Day High As Meme Coin Activity Returns

Solana's daily token launches reached an 80-day high in late June and early July, driven by a resurgence in meme coin activity, launch programs, and Raydium-related tools. This spike indicates a clear return of speculative interest to the network. Solana's fast, low-cost transactions make it a prime venue for such rapid-fire token creation and trading. While this activity boosts network usage and signals renewed trader risk appetite, it carries significant warnings. New meme coins are extremely high-risk, often failing quickly or suffering from poor liquidity. The surge in launches reflects vibrant chain activity but does not endorse specific tokens. For SOL, the impact is indirect, potentially increasing fees and ecosystem attention, but not guaranteeing a price rise. Ultimately, the spike confirms Solana's role as a hub for high-speed crypto experimentation, though sustainability depends on usage beyond short-term speculation.

RaveDAO drops 12% – Will whales push RAVE prices even lower?

RaveDAO (RAVE) has declined 12% in the past 24 hours, with the downtrend potentially continuing due to intense selling pressure from whale investors. Key indicators point to a weakening market: the Bull Bear Power (BBP) shows bullish conviction fading, while the Accumulation/Distribution (A/D) line confirms dominant selling activity. Data identifies whales as the primary force behind the sell-off, with a whale-retail delta reading climbing to 0.272. Their influence is significant given their control over the vast majority of RAVE's supply on BSC, Base, and Ethereum chains. Concurrently, spot demand has collapsed, with net flows plunging to approximately -$269,000. With whale selling ongoing, spot demand absent, and technical indicators deteriorating, RAVE's price remains in a precarious position and is vulnerable to further declines.
