According to Odaily Planet Daily, Clear Street, the underwriter for Strategy, plans to list as early as January.

Huoxun Finance reported on December 6th that Caixin.com published an article titled "Building a Firewall Against Virtual Currency to Protect the Public's 'Wallets'," which pointed out that recent speculation in virtual currencies has resurfaced. Establishing a firewall against virtual currencies requires not only the full cooperation of various departments but also the improvement of relevant regulations, enhanced supervision, strengthened technical monitoring capabilities in key areas, and protection of normal economic and trade activities. Data shows that in 2024, relevant departments prosecuted 3,032 people for money laundering crimes, including using virtual currencies to transfer criminal proceeds. Many were drawn into these crimes due to a lack of legal awareness. A scholar's analysis of 283 judgments in cases of money laundering using virtual currencies revealed that criminal groups heavily exploit marginalized young people as tools for their crimes, exhibiting significant geographical clustering and a high proportion of individuals with only junior or senior high school education.

According to data from Coingecko, as reported by Odaily Planet Daily, the market capitalization of euro-denominated stablecoins has more than doubled in the year since the EU's Crypto Asset Market Regulation (MiCA) came into effect, currently reaching approximately $683 million. However, this is still a significant gap compared to the over $300 billion market capitalization of dollar-denominated stablecoins. Furthermore, according to the "2025 Euro Stablecoin Trends Report" released by London-based payments company Decta, recent growth in euro-denominated stablecoins is mainly concentrated on a few leading tokens. For example, EURS's market capitalization increased by 6.44%. Additionally, Circle's EURC and Société Générale's EURCV also saw significant growth, with trading volumes increasing by 1139% and 343% respectively. Decta's survey also shows a substantial increase in search activity for euro-denominated stablecoins across the EU, with Finland seeing a 400% increase, Italy a 313.3% increase, and smaller but steady growth in markets such as Cyprus and Slovakia.
