On the 11th, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates stated in a television interview that AI is the most dangerous technology ever invented by humanity, with risks exceeding those of cars, airplanes, and pharmaceuticals. He mentioned that the real threat at present is not AI going out of control, as that scenario is still years away from becoming a reality; rather, the more immediate threat is criminals using AI to carry out extortion, manipulate the stock market, and other crimes.Gates indicated that as criminals crack and bypass the security protections of the latest AI models, there will be a significant number of negative events in the cybersecurity field over the next year. He also mentioned concerns about biosecurity, stating that AI has significant implications for fields such as healthcare, but the potential risks still outweigh those of traditional industries that are already under strict regulation. Currently, there is no effective regulatory framework established globally, and within the next year, industry governance will have to move beyond mere self-regulation, while existing resource investments are far from sufficient.According to reports cited by the Financial Associated Press, Ken McCallum, the director of the UK's MI5, stated in the annual threat assessment that AI is exacerbating the cyber offense and defense game and may change the risk landscape of biological weapons. MI5 has announced the establishment of an AI threat assessment center.

Since the beginning of 2026, Bitcoin has experienced 10 "3 standard deviation" trading days, exceeding the 8 times seen throughout the bear market of 2018. Although Bitcoin's annualized volatility has decreased from 84% in 2018 to about 46%, extreme market conditions still occur frequently relative to recent price volatility levels. "3 standard deviation" is used to measure the extent to which prices deviate from the recent normal volatility range. Data shows that the average price fluctuation for Bitcoin during such extreme conditions this year is about 7%, lower than the approximately 10% seen in 2018.Since 2024, Bitcoin's volatility has been around 47%, similar to Nvidia, but during the same period, Bitcoin has had 26 "3 standard deviation" trading days, far exceeding Nvidia's 8 times, the S&P 500's 16 times, and gold's 12 times. Market participants point out that macro shocks and the leverage and concentrated positions in the derivatives market are important factors contributing to the continued occurrence of extreme volatility. When investors sell options in large quantities, betting on market calmness, sudden news can force related concentrated positions to close, further amplifying price fluctuations.Deribit CEO Luuk Strijers stated that traditional Value at Risk (VaR) models struggle to adequately measure tail risks during extreme market conditions, and investors should pay more attention to risk indicators such as Expected Shortfall. Meanwhile, increased institutional participation, deeper liquidity, and improved risk management are also enhancing the market's ability to withstand shocks, but this does not mean that extreme volatility will disappear.

According to Cointelegraph, a report by Chainalysis indicates that from the first quarter of 2024 to the second quarter of 2026, the number of independent wallets sending peer-to-peer (P2P) stablecoin transactions in China increased 43 times.During the reporting period from July 2025 to June 2026, Chainalysis recorded 18.1 million transfers involving self-custodied stablecoin holdings in China, totaling $10.41 billion. The annual turnover rate of stablecoin holdings was 33.2 times, more than three times the global average of 9.3 times. Chainalysis believes this characteristic aligns with users using stablecoins as working capital.Chainalysis estimates that the size of China's crypto economy is at least $176 billion, with domestic P2P activities accounting for 59.1%, which is 3.5 times the share during the 2025 reporting period. In March 2026, the volume of stablecoin transfers within China increased by $4.9 billion, marking the largest monthly increase during the reporting period. This growth occurred amid China's long-standing restrictions on crypto trading, as regulators introduced new rules in February targeting unauthorized RMB-pegged stablecoins and tokenized real-world assets.Chainalysis pointed out that China's P2P-dominated market contrasts with other markets in East Asia. South Korea, with $449.1 billion, has become the largest crypto economy in East Asia, with activity growing by 12.3% compared to the previous reporting period, and retail investors showing a preference for AI-related tokens. Institutional platforms in Hong Kong accounted for 16% of service inflows, nearly three times that of regional neighbors, and recorded nearly $24 billion in business-to-business inflows, issuing the first batch of stablecoin licenses in April.
