    Exchange CEO: The Era of Survival for Cryptocurrencies Is Over, the US Is "Back on the Offensive"
    Jinse Finance reported that the CEO of a certain exchange, Brian Armstrong, stated at the New York Times DealBook Summit that the era of cryptocurrency is no longer a battle for survival, but a race to accelerate. The United States is regaining the offensive with the advantages of favorable policies, market forecasting, and financial reset. "I'm an optimist, right? I believe we are currently entering a golden age of freedom, and the popularization of various financial products is driving this transformation. In the crypto space, we are witnessing the rapid rise of prediction markets. The regulatory framework for stablecoins is now clear. Market structure is expected to be reshaped, and the US seems to be back on the offensive. We have the opportunity to upgrade the financial system through cryptocurrency and eliminate many frictions in the economy. As the midterm elections approach, the government may stimulate the market and further cut interest rates. Therefore, I am generally optimistic, and we try not to be swayed by short-term trends."

The volatility of AI concept stocks is affecting the trend of the crypto market, with growing concerns about a bubble. 4.
