Ansem: Pessimism has reached an extreme, and the current entry point for Bitcoin is a good trading opportunity

Crypto KOL Ansem reiterated the long-term investment logic of Bitcoin, stating that despite previously holding a bearish stance, the current price level presents a good buying opportunity. He pointed out that the core narrative of Bitcoin as the hardest currency remains unchanged—it's not subject to government seizure, can be transferred across borders instantly, and is not affected by the long-term depreciation of the dollar, making it an ideal vehicle for long-term wealth storage. The performance of gold outpacing Bitcoin between 2024 and 2025 temporarily undermined the "digital gold" narrative, but he believes that as long as price momentum rebounds, market confidence can be restored.On a macro level, Ansem believes that with the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and the expected easing of inflationary pressures, the Federal Reserve's hawkish stance may be nearing its peak, at which point both Waller and the Federal Reserve will have room to cut interest rates rather than continue raising them; the strength of the dollar and rising interest rates exert pressure on gold, but if profits from AI stocks flow into real estate, cash, and long-term value storage assets, both gold and Bitcoin will benefit; institutional investors like Paul Tudor Jones still show interest in Bitcoin.Previously, Ansem candidly admitted to being bearish on Bitcoin due to Saylor's (founder of Strategy) position risk, once believing that $60,000 would be hard to maintain, but he stated he is now responding to buy signals. He noted that the current price action has priced in the worst-case scenario of Saylor being forced to sell, and even if he truly needs to sell, it would not happen for at least six months. He concluded that Bitcoin is currently at the intersection of long-term historical support levels and the most pessimistic market sentiment he has observed, making entry at the beginning of Q3 a trading opportunity worth paying attention to.

a16z Crypto Operating Partner: Capital flow is the moat, and there are plenty of opportunities for crypto entrepreneurs

a16z Crypto Operating Partner Jason Rosenthal posted on the X platform that cash flow is the moat. The best companies often establish themselves by placing themselves in the "cash flow," and cryptocurrency is the first modern technology born for this purpose. If your startup has not designed its products and business models around these principles, you will miss a great opportunity. Thanks to stablecoins, funds and value can now flow at the speed of the internet—global settlement, 24/7 uninterrupted, with end-to-end programmability.Railway companies do not make money from locomotives, but from every ton of goods that pass through the tracks; companies like Visa and Jane Street are all part of the cash flow. Cash flow combined with network effects is one of the most enduring business structures in history. There is a lot of profit margin in traditional financial services, and processes such as payments, custody, lending, foreign exchange, settlement, and market making can all be compressed. Crypto entrepreneurs have the opportunity to build the next generation of cash flow businesses that are programmable, instant, and global.This model can also be extended to computing, GPU markets, AI training data, energy, robotics, space, rare earth metals, and other fields. Founders should ask themselves: Are you in the cash flow? When the value of product activities grows tenfold, does your revenue grow accordingly? In your target market, where are the segments with the highest profit margins relative to the value created?

a16z co-founder: Support the establishment of trust and safety guardrails for the new era, oppose regulations that stifle AI innovation

Marc Andreessen, co-founder of the venture capital firm a16z, published an article outlining his stance on AI regulation by the U.S. government. He stated that if so-called regulation means creating complex rules by people who do not understand the technology, suppressing innovation through layers of approval and compliance requirements, and ultimately becoming a tool for large enterprises to consolidate market positions and hinder newcomers, then he will firmly oppose such regulation.In his view, excessive regulation often leads to startups being crushed by cumbersome procedures and high compliance costs, causing innovative talent to flow to more open markets, while regulatory agencies themselves continue to expand, ultimately deviating from their original goals.Andreessen specifically criticized the regulatory mindset centered on the "precautionary principle," arguing that if this concept is amplified indefinitely, it could lead society to reject new technologies out of fear of potential risks. Many regulatory measures often arrive late, after fundamental changes in technology and industry have already occurred, making it difficult to address real issues and potentially becoming obstacles to innovative development. He also attributed the relatively lagging state of technological innovation in Europe in recent years to a culture of excessive regulation, believing that regulation should not become a moat to protect vested interests and raise market entry barriers.However, Andreessen emphasized that he does not oppose all forms of regulation. On the contrary, he supports rules that can build market trust, ensure public safety, and maintain fair competition. For example, preventing AI from faking voices to commit financial fraud, preventing deepfake content from interfering with elections, preventing technology from being used to harm vulnerable groups, and ensuring that consumers and businesses can safely use new technologies.In his view, reasonable regulation is like guardrails on a highway and a braking system in a car; it does not hinder technological progress but rather allows innovation to develop in a faster and more sustainable manner. Andreessen stated that what is truly worth pursuing is not "zero regulation" or "heavy regulation," but finding a balance between innovative vitality and social trust, which is also his unwavering stance.Previously, the U.S. government forcibly "recalled" commercial models due to jailbreak risks, leading Anthropic to take Fable 5 offline overnight and publicly protest.

WasabiCard featured in a special report by Forbes, focusing on the development opportunities of stablecoin payment infrastructure

The global stablecoin payment infrastructure platform WasabiCard has been featured in a special report by Forbes, which discusses the challenges faced by stablecoin payments in becoming mainstream applications and includes an interview with WasabiCard co-founder and CEO Ray Yang. The report points out that as stablecoin applications gradually extend from crypto trading to real business scenarios such as corporate payments and cross-border settlements, the underlying payment infrastructure is becoming a key driver of industry development.In the interview, Ray Yang stated: "At this stage, the development of stablecoin payments still faces dual challenges in technology and regulation. From a technical perspective, the core issue is no longer the transfer of funds itself; rather, the key lies in licensing qualifications, compliance systems, risk management capabilities, and banking network capabilities."Ray Yang further pointed out that the key to achieving large-scale commercialization of stablecoin payments does not lie in the payment capability itself, but in whether a global infrastructure can be built to connect digital assets with the traditional financial system. As a global stablecoin payment infrastructure platform, WasabiCard continues to focus on the global payment network, compliance systems, and enterprise-level payment capabilities, committed to promoting the widespread application of stablecoins in real business scenarios.This special report by Forbes reflects the ongoing attention of international mainstream financial media to the development trends of stablecoin payment infrastructure and indirectly highlights the growing importance of compliance and the value of building scalable global payment networks in the market.
