Yesterday's Market Dynamics
EU Digital Euro Plan Makes New Progress, but Issuance Still Years Away
According to Reuters, EU finance ministers recently reached a consensus on the digital euro roadmap during a meeting in Copenhagen. The plan grants EU ministers decision-making power over issuance and personal holding limits. European Central Bank President Lagarde stated that the digital euro is not only a payment tool but also a political declaration of European sovereignty.
However, the plan still requires approval from the European Parliament, with legislation expected to be completed by mid-2026 at the earliest. It may then take another three years before official issuance. Multiple challenges including data privacy and financial stability remain during this period.

Vitalik: Low-Risk DeFi Could Become Ethereum's Core Revenue Engine, Analogous to Google Search Business Model
Vitalik published a lengthy post on social media stating that the Ethereum community has long faced a contradiction between application revenue and ecosystem goals: high-yield applications (such as NFTs and memecoins) often diverge from foundational values, while non-financial applications align with vision but struggle to support a $500 billion economy.
Vitalik pointed out that low-risk DeFi (payments, savings, synthetic assets, and over-collateralized lending) can be compared to Google's search business, serving as Ethereum’s core revenue source. Such applications support the economic ecosystem through high transaction fees and ETH staking demand, while aligning with global inclusive finance values and avoiding the ethical issues of data monopolies inherent in traditional advertising models.
Vitalik noted that tightening regulatory environments and improved protocol security are creating favorable conditions for low-risk DeFi. Future developments could include under-collateralized lending, prediction market hedging, and diversified stable-value assets (such as currency baskets and inflation-linked tokens), forming synergies with Ethereum's experimental applications.
CZ: BNB Was Initially Just a Fundraising "Chip," But Has Now Become an Ecosystem Independent of Binance
Binance co-founder CZ shared interview content on X, noting that when BNB first launched in 2017, it was merely an ERC20 token on Ethereum—initially just a fundraising "chip." At the time, they envisioned building their own public, decentralized blockchain, but never imagined it would evolve into what it is today. Over the past two years, CZ has been preoccupied with legal cases in the U.S., dedicating little effort to BNB or increasing investment in the BNB Chain. The community grew organically and BNB endured. Starting this year, Binance has increased investment, yet the BNB Chain still feels somewhat "unfinished," with an immature ecosystem. Originally, some wanted to call BNB "Binance Coin"—which it indeed was called at first—but the goal later shifted toward shedding Binance's branding. Today, it has evolved into an independent ecosystem comprising multi-chain native assets such as BSC, Greenfield, and opBNB, forming a financial ecosystem including DEXs, derivatives, lending, and stablecoins.
