Regarding the issue of whether Coinbase charges a listing fee, Sonic Labs co-founder Andre Cronje responded again that he did not sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA), and therefore is willing to publicly share the "fee" requests sent by the Coinbase team over the years through email, Telegram and Slack. He pointed out that although Coinbase may call it an "earn fee" rather than a direct "listing fee", it still forms a listing cost in reality.
Previously, Coinbase officials questioned whether Cronje might have contacted fake Coinbase employees, but Cronje said he has evidence and is willing to make it public for the public to judge for themselves.
Sotheby's Vice President and Digital Art Head Michael Bouhanna wrote that recent rumors about his creation of the meme token BAN have been circulating on the internet, leading to a lot of misunderstanding and false information. Bouhanna clarified that the BAN token is a project he initiated out of personal interest on the Pump.Fun platform, and is completely unrelated to his position at Sotheby's, which was not involved. The project was initially published anonymously, and the rapid growth driven by the community was not expected, nor was any promotion or encouragement for others to buy.
Bouhanna pointed out that the idea of BAN came from his understanding of the "Comedian" artwork, using the token to make a satirical comment on the meme-driven cryptocurrency market. In addition, he emphasized that the recent rumors claiming he earned $1 million from the project are completely untrue, the related wallet is not his, and the vast majority of the earnings are unrealized value.
Binance co-founder He Yi posted on the X platform that if a project does not pass the screening process, no matter how much money or what percentage of tokens, it cannot be listed on Binance.
The projects already listed on Binance have clear introductions in the token distribution column, so you can analyze the percentages yourself to see if there is the so-called 20%, 15% or something.
The rules for Binance's Launchpool and other listing airdrops are transparent and clear, but that does not mean that Binance is willing to list all the airdrop projects.
FUD will never disappear, but let's get stronger. Gossip is easy to get traffic, and business competition is always full of dark sides; when you understand the rules of how the world works, you will no longer be easily swayed by rumors, and thus have the ability to think independently.
People like AC who dare to tell the truth in the midst of the noise are the ones truly worthy of the community's respect.
According to CoinDesk, CoinDesk analyst James Van Straten said: "MicroStrategy's shareholders are a unique group, usually shareholders would see their equity being diluted as a bad thing, but as shareholders of MicroStrategy they seem very happy to have their equity diluted, because these shareholders know that MicroStrategy is buying Bitcoin, and this strategy is essentially increasing the value per share, meaning the shareholder value is also increasing."
According to Protos, "Satoshi Nakamoto" Craig Wright argued that due to his severe autism and Christmas schedule, he is unable to attend the December court hearing, after he was previously accused of contempt of court in the lawsuit filed by the Cryptocurrency Open Patent Alliance (COPA).
The law firm representing COPA, Bird and Bird, stated that Craig Wright violated his injunction by deleting online notices and suing Jack Dorsey's Square Up and BTC Core.
In addition, COPA is seeking to stay Wright's lawsuits and related court proceedings until the contempt of court case is resolved. COPA lawyer Joe Jonathan Hough said, "Wright is trying to evade the consequences of his actions. He may be trying to avoid the police or avoid being arrested."
