But new functions let them ‘top up first, and use later.’ This will make the payment process shorter and make for simpler and more friction-free transactions.”But it appears that the CBDC is not the only Chinese payment system to have benefited from the games.The same media outlet quoted Alipay data as showing that “since the start of the Asian Games, the average number of daily payments made by inbound tourists on Alipay increased by 69%.”Dong Ximiao, the Chief Researcher at the China Merchants Union, stated:“Convenient and novel forms of cross-border payment can optimize the payment experience for overseas tourists coming to China. This will further drive the Chinese retail market.”A Weibo user shares a promotional image explaining how JD.com users can receive CBDC-related discounts.

The Regulation Roadmap Love him or hate him, when Arthur Hayes speaks, people listen. Last week, as a guest on Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu, Hayes made the case for why he believes Bitcoin (BTC) price will hit $750,000 to $1 million by 2026.Hayes said,“I absolutely agree that there is going to be a major financial crisis, probably as bad or worse than the great depression, sometime near the end of the decade, before we get there we’re gonna have, I think, the largest bull market in stocks, real estate, crypto, art, you name it, that we’ve ever seen since WW2.” Hayes cites the nearly-predictable response of the United States government rushing in to intervene in every economic crisis with a bail out as a key catalyst behind the structural problems in the US economy. He explained that this essentially creates an endless cycle of central bank printing, which leads to inflation and prevents the economy from going through natural market cycles of growth and correction. “We all have collectively agreed that the government is there essentially to attempt to remove the business cycle. Like, there should never be bad things that happen to the economy and if there are, we want the government to come in and destroy the free market. So every time we’ve had a financial crisis over the past 80 years. What happens? The government rushes in and they essentially destroy some part of the free market because they want to save the system.”Let’s take a quick look at a few of the catalysts that Hayes believes will back Bitcoin’s move into six-figure territory. Mounting debt and out of control inflation. According to Hayes, mounting government debt, a large amount that needs to be rolled over, and diminishing productivity can only be addressed with money printing. While monetary expansion does lead to bull markets, the consequence tends to be high inflation. “In the first instance it creates a massive bull market in stocks, crypto, real estate, things that have a fixed supply, maybe they’re productive and have some earnings. But after that, we’re going to find out that, actually, the government can save everything. It can’t just print as much money as they think to try to save themselves by fixing the yield and price of their bonds and we’re going to get a generational collapse.” Hayes expects a “massive top” at some point in 2026, followed by a great depression-like situation occurring by the end of the decade.The US Government bankrupted the banking systemWhen asked about future contributors to inflation, Hayes zoned in on the $7.75 trillion in US debt that must be rolled over by 2026 and the yield curve inversion in US bonds. Traditionally China, Japan and other nations were the main buyers of US debt but this is not the case anymore, a change which Hayes believes will exacerbate the situation in the states. Why do I love these markets right now when yields are screaming higher? Bank models have no concept of a bear steepener occurring.

"The Court should reject Coinbase's attempt to narrow and misapply the established legal framework in order to avoid being subject to the same regulatory obligations as all other participants in the Nation’s securities markets.
