That’s a big reason they failed.…

Centralized exchanges’ Kodak moment — time to adopt a new model or stay behind

boss

Opinion by: Ido Ben Natan, co-founder and CEO of Blockaid Centralized exchanges (CEXs) have controlled what people can trade for years. If a token wasn’t listed on major exchanges, it didn’t exist for most users. That system worked when crypto was small. But today? It’s completely broken. The rise of Solana-based memecoins, the popularization of projects like Pump.fun and developments in AI-driven token creation are driving the creation of millions of new tokens each month.  Exchanges have not evolved to keep up. That must change. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong recently…

Will new US SEC rules bring crypto companies onshore?

boss

Once, long ago, cryptocurrency companies operated comfortably in the US. In that quaint, bygone era, they would often conduct funding events called “initial coin offerings,” and then use those raised funds to try to do things in the real and blockchain world. Now, they largely do this “offshore” through foreign entities while geofencing the United States. The effect of this change has been dramatic: Practically all major cryptocurrency issuers started in the US now include some off-shore foundation arm. These entities create significant domestic challenges. They are expensive, difficult to…
