According to Jinshi reports, "Fed's mouthpiece" Nick Timiraos stated that the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for December is unlikely to change the Federal Reserve's current wait-and-see attitude. Officials want to see more evidence that inflation is stabilizing and gradually declining before considering rate cuts. The Fed has lowered the benchmark interest rate in the last three meetings, with the most recent cut in December, even though inflation stopped declining last year. To resume rate cuts, officials may need to see new evidence of worsening labor market conditions or easing price pressures.

According to the Korea Times, South Korea's major financial group Mirae Asset is considering acquiring the local cryptocurrency exchange platform Korbit. Reports indicate that Mirae Asset is negotiating to acquire approximately 92% of Korbit's shares, with the transaction valued at up to 140 billion won (about 97 million USD).Mirae Asset, headquartered in Seoul, operates in asset management, wealth management, investment banking, and insurance, making it an important institution in South Korea's traditional financial sector. If the deal is finalized, it will be its first direct involvement in cryptocurrency-related business. Reports suggest that Mirae Asset's founder, Park Hyun-joo, has emphasized exploring opportunities for the integration of traditional assets and digital assets in recent years.Industry insiders point out that although Korbit has limited market presence, its years of accumulated financial experience may help it drive differentiated development in the future. Data shows that Korbit currently ranks fourth among six compliant trading platforms in South Korea by trading volume, with a 24-hour trading volume of approximately 11.8 million USD, significantly lower than Upbit (about 1.2 billion USD) and Bithumb (about 475 million USD), while the third place, Coinone, has about 58 million USD.

According to Cointelegraph, Mirae Asset Group is in negotiations to acquire Korbit, the fourth largest cryptocurrency exchange in South Korea, with a transaction valuation estimated at around 100 billion to 140 billion Korean won, equivalent to approximately 70 million to 100 million USD.The potential acquisition will be led by Mirae Asset Consulting, a non-financial subsidiary of Mirae Asset Group, which has signed a memorandum of understanding with Korbit's major shareholders. Public information shows that NXC and its subsidiary Simple Capital Futures collectively hold about 60.5% of Korbit's shares, while SK Square holds approximately 31.5%.The report points out that Korbit possesses a complete operating license and compliance system, making it attractive to large financial groups looking to enter the digital asset space in a compliant manner. However, in terms of market share, Korbit has a limited presence in the South Korean cryptocurrency trading market.Data from CoinGecko indicates that out of the approximately 1.21 billion USD in total 24-hour trading volume across six major exchanges in South Korea, Korbit only contributes about 5.75 million USD, accounting for less than 1%. In contrast, Upbit, Bithumb, and Coinone hold significant advantages. Previous reports have indicated that Naver Financial also plans to acquire Dunamu, the operator of Upbit, through a share swap, demonstrating that traditional financial and tech giants in South Korea are continuously increasing their investments in the cryptocurrency asset space.
