The biggest philosophical question is not “Can we trust someone,” but “How do we design an institutional framework that makes trust unnecessary?” Otherwise, we’re using 19th-century governance structures to deal with the most powerful power game of the 21st century.

01 An Investigative Report Shaking Silicon Valley

On April 6, 2026, The New Yorker published an in-depth investigative report that took 18 months to complete, exposing an episode inside OpenAI that still leaves many people with firsthand knowledge uneasy to this day.

The core material of this report is a seventy-page internal memo compiled in the fall of 2023 by OpenAI’s former Chief Scientist, Ilya Sutskever, along with the notes retained by Anthropic co-founder Dario Amodei, who has kept

In recent years, cases that appear to be based on virtual currencies, node devices, dual-token mechanisms, and team promotion systems have increasingly entered the scrutiny of judicial review for the crime of organizing and leading pyramid schemes. Compared with traditional commodity-based pyramid scheme cases, such cases often simultaneously have multiple characteristics, including technical mechanisms, token structures, community governance, and tiered agent systems, which leads to significant disputes in judicial determinations regarding issues such as the qualification for joining, hierarchical relationships, team-based compensation, and subjective awareness.

In light of this, this article intends to use two publicly disclosed cases—Terra (UST & LUNA) and the “Xinkangjia” major pyramid scheme case—as analysis samples, to provide a research-style review of the common reasoning logic, investigative focus, and controversial issues when virtual currency projects are alleged to have committed the crime of organizing and leading pyramid schemes, with the aim of offering references for relevant case handlers, researchers, and those who are interested in the handling approach for such cases.

The core viewpoint of this article is

Circle fell from $130 to $90, down 30%, and then rebounded. Should I build a position? My judgment: not in a hurry. For $90 ’s Circle, you’re paying the price for a “interest-rate bank” to get access to a “financial technology platform.”

I went through the 10-K annual report, ran the Q1 on-chain data, checked Polymarket’s interest rate expectations, read the latest draft of the CLARITY Act, and also pulled up every insider stock sale record—so let me share my assessment.

This article is only for updating my view on $CRCL and does not constitute investment advice.

First, the conclusion

$90 long is not a good entry price; my judgment is to hold. Want to add to your position? A better entry range is $80 or lower.

Why? 96% of revenue depends on interest rate bank

Over the past year or more, I don’t know if you’ve had any particular feelings, but it seems that the market and stock prices have become increasingly binary. Companies with narrative heat surge—take AI infra hardware as an example, across every aspect. Companies without narrative heat, especially those with flaws, basically just grind lower under a long series of red days—for example, consumer companies, even including Moutai.

The market trend is becoming increasingly binary and polarized: either it’s a Fomo-driven rise, or a panic-driven drop. In the AI era, the way questions are asked and processed has a tendency. For instance, if a stock rises, investors ask AI questions like, “Why is it going up?” As an LLM, it will come up with many reasons to support why it’s going up, directly reinforcing investors’ expectations and forming herd effects and group consensus even faster, strengthening short-term upward momentum. And if a stock falls, it’s the same too—asking AI why it’s falling, and AI produces a whole set of reasons supporting the decline, reinforcing downside expectations and shaping the

Odin.fun co-founder Bob Bodily stated that the platform is restoring to its pre-attack state and actively tracking large cryptocurrency withdrawal records. The vulnerability has been fixed and audited, and the team is discussing restart plans with the community to address recent security incidents.

Introduction

Embezzlement of duty—The era of high-frequency commercial crimes has arrived

In recent years, as China’s private economy has continued to develop, problems with corporate internal governance have become increasingly prominent. Embezzlement of duty—the crime in which staff of a company, enterprise, or other organization illegally appropriate the property of their unit by taking advantage of their position—has become one of the economic crime categories with the highest case-filing rate in China, and has long remained near the top among nationwide commercial criminal cases.

From the perspective of legislation, the state’s efforts to crack down on embezzlement of duty have indeed continued to be strengthened. The “Amendment (XI) to the Criminal Law,” which took effect on March 1, 2021, comprehensively upgraded the sentencing rules for the crime of embezzlement of duty: it added a sentencing tier for “especially huge amounts,” increased the statutory maximum penalty, and introduced a fine penalty, conveying a strong signal of strict punishment for corruption within enterprises. In April 2022,

Under Pakistan's mediation, a two-week temporary ceasefire agreement has been reached between the US and Iran. The US and Israel agree to suspend airstrikes on Iran, and in exchange, Iran will temporarily lift the blockade of the Strait. First, it must be clear that if this agreement is strictly implemented, it benefits the United States and is unfavorable to Iran. As the mediator, Pakistan's relationship with the US is much closer than with Iran, so it is unlikely that Pakistan would propose a plan that is disadvantageous to the US.
The second wave of US reinforcements is rushing to the battlefield:
More importantly, if the Persian Gulf conflict is frozen for two weeks, it will buy valuable time for the US to deploy troops. As a global empire, the US has spent heavily to build a military capable of rapid deployment worldwide, including airborne units, aircraft carrier battle groups, and amphibious readiness groups. Earlier this year, to intervene in the Venezuelan situation, the US deployed the USS Ford aircraft carrier and the USS Wasp in the Caribbean.
