Caroline Crenshaw has left the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), leaving the agency solely comprising Republicans. As a result, nothing stands in the way of pro-crypto rulemaking. Republicans in Washington have generally been friendlier toward the crypto industry than their Democratic counterparts. The SEC made a 180-degree turn last year, after President Donald Trump entered office and Congress moved on landmark crypto legislation. Now, just one week into 2026, the Senate is set for a markup vote on the crypto market structure bill — and there is an entirely…

🧐👉 為什麼Coinbase推出大利多,股價反而暴跌? #QixNewsCrypto
▶ Coinbase Website: Coinbase.com ▶ CEX Website: cex.io 📉 Coinbase 宣佈重磅消息,卻迎來股價下跌?這背後到底發生了什麼事? 美國最大的加密貨幣交易所 Coinbase 拋出震撼彈,宣布將推出名為「Everything Exchange」(一切交易所)的全新平台,目標是將所有資產都帶到區塊鏈上,實現一站式交易! ### 🏛️ 萬物皆可交易的時代來臨? Coinbase 的宏大藍圖包括: – **代幣化股票**:將傳統公司的股票數位化,使其能在鏈上自由交易。 – **衍生品與預測市場**:提供更多元的金融工具與服務。 這個計畫與美國證券交易委員會(SEC)近期推出的「Project Crypto」倡議不謀而合,顯示監管機構正為數位金融的未來鋪路,目標是讓美國成為全球領導者。簡單來說,這就像是為傳統金融資產辦一張「數位身分證」,讓它們能在加密世界裡暢行無阻。 ### 💸 理想豐滿,現實骨感 儘管前景看似一片光明,市場反應卻相當冷淡。Coinbase 公布的第二季度財報顯示,公司營收為15億美元,低於分析師預期的15.9億美元。財報不如預期的消息一出,即使有「一切交易所」的利多加持,其股價在盤後交易中仍下跌超過6%。 這形成了一個有趣的對比:公司正在為未來畫下宏偉藍圖,但當前的財務表現卻未能滿足市場期待。 ### 🚀 對你有什麼影響? 這次事件標誌著傳統金融與加密貨幣的邊界正在快速模糊。未來,你投資美股、債券等資產的方式,可能會變得像買賣比特幣一樣即時、便捷且全球化,不再完全依賴傳統的券商系統。這是一個值得所有投資者關注的重大趨勢! #Coinbase #Everything_Exchange #代幣化股票 #SEC #數位金融 #QixNewsCrypto #Shorts ▶ Coinbase Website: Coinbase.com ▶ CEX Website: cex.io Youtube version
