Morgan Stanley стреляет себе в ногу, рекламируя биткоин-ETF

cryptonews.ruPublicado em 2021-10-11Última atualização em 2024-08-11

Бывший сотрудник Комиссии по ценным бумагам и биржам (SEC) США Джон Рид Старк считает, что биткоин-ETF вобьют гвоздь в крышку гроба финансовой компании Morgan Stanley.

7 августа финансовые советники Morgan Stanley начали предлагать клиентам фирмы вложить деньги в паи BTC-ETF, выпущенных в США. Старк считает это очень рискованным шагом и полагает, что, сделав его, руководство Morgan Stanley пожелало гибели своей организации.

Разрешив легиону, состоящему из 15 000 брокеров, рекомендовать инвестиции в биткоины, главы Morgan Stanley добровольно подвергли свою компанию, скорее всего, крупнейшей за всю историю проверке со стороны SEC и Службы регулирования отрасли финансовых услуг.

Найти нарушения будет так же легко, как поймать рыбу в бочке. Поэтому, кто бы ни занимал пост директора по соответствию законодательным нормам, я желаю ему успеха, — заявил Старк.

Однако может так статься, что Джон недооценивает руководство Morgan Stanley и нагоняет жути на пустом месте. Из анонимных источников стало известно, что работникам Morgan Stanley дали добро на продвижение только двух ETF: iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) и Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC).

Эти фонды, разработанные фирмами BlackRock и Fidelity соответственно, вероятно, неспроста входят в тройку лидеров по уровню капитализации. Судя по всему, эмитенты IBIT и FBTC предусмотрели возможные трения с регуляторами и максимально снизили юридические риски.

Meanwhile, capital continues chasing grand narratives like space exploration and advanced AI, highlighting a divergence where old-world leverage frays as new-world stories grow more ambitious.

The Hunter Becomes the Hunted: The Most Profitable MEV Bot Gets Hacked

A well-known and highly profitable Ethereum MEV Bot, Jaredfromsubway.eth, suffered a sophisticated on-chain attack this Saturday, losing over $7.5 million. Analysis by Blockaid and others reveals this was not a conventional phishing or smart contract exploit, but a targeted "counter-MEV honeypot attack." The attacker meticulously laid a trap over several weeks, deploying 66 fake token contracts and liquidity pools disguised as major assets like WETH and USDC. These pools created the illusion of arbitrage opportunities. The MEV Bot's automated system detected these signals, executed trades, and in the process, granted approval permissions to attacker-controlled contracts. These approvals were not revoked, creating a persistent vulnerability. The attacker then exploited this in a single transaction, draining the bot's ETH, USDC, and USDT holdings. Jaredfromsubway.eth is notorious as one of Ethereum's most active and profitable MEV Bots, primarily known for executing "sandwich attacks" to profit from transaction slippage. Estimates suggest it has earned tens of millions in MEV revenue. The incident highlights escalating crypto security threats, demonstrating that even top-tier automated "predators" are vulnerable to novel, logic-based attacks designed to exploit their own operational rules. Following the hack, an unverified X account impersonating Jaredfromsubway.eth emerged, falsely offering a bounty for the return of funds, prompting developer warnings for users to stay vigilant.

The Reality of Payments in Latin America Is Not What You Think

The payment landscape in Latin America is undergoing a fundamental shift, driven by on-the-ground realities that challenge common perceptions. Based on over 500 hours of field research across the region, key insights emerge. Firstly, QR code payments, like Brazil's Pix, are becoming the dominant payment method in most emerging markets, overtaking cards. However, these domestic instant payment systems lack international interoperability, creating a significant gap for cross-border users. Secondly, the narrative around crypto cards is often misunderstood; their primary volume comes from high-net-worth professionals using them for salary conversions (e.g., USDT to local currency via Pix), not retail micro-payments. Competition in payments is shifting from customer acquisition to controlling the settlement layer, leading fintechs to acquire banking licenses for efficiency. Thirdly, treating "Latin America" as a single market is a mistake. Countries like Argentina, Brazil, and Mexico have distinct economic realities, user segments, and regulatory approaches. Brazil alone has at least five distinct user segments with different financial flows. Overlooked markets like Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador (the "forgotten five") offer high remittance volumes with lower competitive density. Finally, regulation in Latin America is often ahead of the US, with clearer frameworks for digital assets and a pragmatic approach from regulators focused on safety rather than obstruction. The margin on stablecoin forex is rapidly compressing toward zero, meaning future winners will be those building value-added services on top of the infrastructure, not just the cheapest exchange.
