🇨🇳 The Chinese authorities have slowed down the crypto initiatives of technogiants.

✦ Ant Group (Alibaba) and JD.com suspended the launch of stablecoins in Hong Kong after instructions from Chinese regulators.

✦ Supervisors, including the People’s Bank of China, have warned that private currencies undermine the state’s monopoly on money emission and can compete with the digital yuan (e-CNY).

✦ This cooled Hong Kong’s ambitions to become a test site for yuan stablecoins, which were supposed to promote the internationalization of RMB.

✦ Former head of the Central Bank of China Zhou Xiaochuan previously called for «be careful» and reminded that stablecoins easily turn into a tool of speculation.

✦ While the United States and Hong Kong are betting on tokenization and stablecoins, China clearly chooses a different path - full control and development of the digital yuan instead of decentralized money.

🫥 Many buyers of the #ZEC token do not speculate on it, but keep it in shielded mode!

On Twitter, the growth of the token by 750% since August this year has increasingly been described as «people’s real desire for privacy and confidentiality».

Supposedly, it’s not just a pump of some old coin, but everything is much deeper.

Why this is important: Part of the offer becomes less affordable for immediate sale.

Real-time data: zechub

Shielded is a Zcash mode where amounts and addresses are hidden using zk-SNARKs. This is not a DeFi pool, but a part of the registry itself. Wallets with NU5/Orchard and Unified Address support allow you to «hide» coins and send them privately. Crypto exchanges are more likely to work with transparent addresses.

🧐 Vitalik Buterin praised Polygon co-founder Sandeep Nilval (twitter)

According to the founder of Ethereum, Polygon played an important role in the development of the ecosystem.

He also noted that Sandeep and CZ are rare examples of those who do not just speak, but really make a personal contribution to the common good, without striving for profit.

At the same time, Sandeep himself said that he began to doubt his loyalty to Ethereum.

According to him, the Ethereum Foundation underestimates the role of Polygon and does not support the project, although from the very beginning the team has strived to be part of the Ethereum ecosystem.

Nailwal noted that such loyalty cost him «billions of dollars», because Polygon could become an independent blockchain.

According to sources, both U.S. parties consider these discussions a positive signal - perhaps it is tomorrow that bipartisan negotiations will be launched again in Washington, which have reached a dead end in recent days.
