4.Trump’s crypto project WLFI plans to acquire TRX to bolster its treasury

5.Justin Sun: Trump Coin Announcement Indicates Crypto Regulation Will Be More Friendly, Has Reached Cooperation with Trump
HTX held an X Space Open Mic event with the theme “Trump Meme Explosive Value Analysis.” HTX’s global advisor Justin Sun participated in the event and provided a detailed analysis of the official Meme coin TRUMP issued today by the incoming U.S. President Trump.
Justin Sun stated, “Trump’s issuance of a coin signifies crypto regulation, especially in the U.S., becoming more friendly. Subsequent enforcement actions against the crypto industry will be impossible, and the U.S. could very well consider Bitcoin as a strategic reserve asset. At the same time, this event will intensify competition in the crypto industry, and it is not ruled out that in the future, Facebook and Apple will also start trading platforms. The future competitive pressure will only increase.”
In November 2024, Justin Sun invested $30 million in the Trump family’s cryptocurrency project, World Liberty Financial (WLFI), becoming the project’s largest investor. Justin Sun commented on this, saying, “We have reached a cooperation agreement with Trump, WLFI will also be issued on the TRON blockchain, and will announce TRX as a reserve asset, with HTX also launching the first time.”

8.Vitalik: Currently, a major transformation is being carried out on the leadership structure of the Ethereum Foundation
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has stated that a major overhaul of the leadership structure of the Ethereum Foundation is currently underway, and this change has been ongoing for nearly a year. Some of these changes have already been implemented and announced, while some are still in progress. The main goals to be achieved are:
Enhancing the technical expertise level of the Ethereum Foundation’s leadership;
Improving two-way communication and connections between the Ethereum Foundation’s leadership and both new and old participants in its ecosystem. The responsibilities of the Ethereum Foundation include supporting: users (individuals and institutions), application developers, wallets, L2;
Introducing fresh talent to increase execution ability and speed;
More actively supporting application developers to ensure important values and inalienable rights (especially privacy, open source, resistance to censorship) are realistic for all users including those at the application layer;
Continuing to increase use of decentralized technology, privacy technology as well as usage on Ethereum chain including payments and fund management.
Things that will be avoided in future include:
Implementing any kind of ideological/atmospheric shift;
Beginning active lobbying with regulatory bodies or powerful political figures (especially in America but actually anywhere especially big countries), risking damaging Ethereum’s status as a globally neutral platform;
Becoming an arena for vested interests;
Becoming highly centralized organization or even becoming “the protagonist” within Ethereum.

10.Vitalik: Supports ETH engaging with funds, institutions, and governments, as well as those willing to discuss ETH from an asset perspective
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin responded to a discussion regarding “Ethereum-related companies needing to proactively engage with funds, institutions, and countries to have them buy ETH,” stating, “I am very supportive of engaging with funds, institutions, and countries, and I also support being willing to discuss ETH from an asset perspective. ETH, as an asset, is a key part of Ethereum as a social organism. I do not believe the Ethereum Foundation (EF) necessarily is the best entity to do all of this.”
“The world is large, and Ethereum is also large. A more effective approach is to support various local organizations around the world (including large enterprises) as they have a deeper understanding of their local situations.”
