Chinese bitcoin mining-rig maker Ebang (Nasdaq: EBON) registered a crypto exchange with the Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre (AUSTRAC).

  • Approval of the registration of Ebang's wholly owned subsidiary, Ebonex Australia, as a digital currency exchange (DCE) was completed on Dec. 3, 2021, according to a Thursday press release.
  • Ebang stock was up 14% in yesterday's trading on the Nasdaq, though it has lost 42% of its value in the past six months.
  • The approval "will add substantial value" to the company's growth and is bringing it closer to becoming a "diversified and vertically integrated blockchain company," Dong Hu, chairman and CEO, said in the press release.
  • Hangzhou, China-based Ebang set up the subsidiary and started the registration process in October 2020.
  • The registration has to be renewed every three years, according to the AUSTRAC website.

Goldman Sachs, Franklin Templeton, and Nicki Minaj: Inside Trump’s surreal Mar-a-Lago crypto summit

World Liberty Forum at Mar-a-Lago. (WLFI)

Crypto, real estate and politics collided at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago club as insiders debated tokenization and regulation.

知っておくべきこと:

  • The World Liberty Financial forum at Mar-a-Lago brought together major figures from traditional finance, crypto and real estate in an intimate, Trump-branded setting that blurred politics and markets.
  • While panels touched on digital assets and the future of tokenized real estate, many speakers, including members of the Trump family, focused on grievances with banks and broader critiques of the existing financial system.
  • High-profile guests such as Binance founder Changpeng Zhao, Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon, FIFA president Gianni Infantino and rapper Nicki Minaj underscored the event’s mix of financial influence, celebrity and political loyalty more than concrete crypto developments.
