Сообщение ChainCatcher, Группа Citigroup ожидает, что в 2026 году объем эмиссии корейских компаний на глобальных рынках облигаций и акций достигнет рекорда. Компании привлекают средства для роста через международных инвесторов, среди которых наиболее заметным является размещение акций SK Hynix на сумму 26,5 миллиарда долларов США. Генеральный директор Citigroup Global Markets в Корее Джанхо Пак заявил, что в Корее становится все больше мировых компаний и лидеров новых отраслей, которые все активнее используют капиталовые рынки для привлечения средств на свои цели роста на конкурентных условиях.В то время как Citigroup делает этот прогноз, два крупнейших производителя чипов в Корее становятся основными бенефициарами глобальной инфраструктуры искусственного интеллекта. Корея стремится побудить компании, включая Samsung Electronics и SK Hynix, инвестировать как минимум 135 триллионов вон (975 миллиардов долларов США) в строительство чипов и дата-центров, хотя многие проекты все еще находятся на ранних стадиях планирования.

Сообщение ChainCatcher, согласно отчету Reuters, последние данные, опубликованные Citibank, показывают, что спрос на сокращение расходов на ИИ со стороны компаний приводит к быстрому росту рыночной доли недорогих открытых моделей. В июне этого года доля открытых моделей Token, обрабатываемых на платформе агрегирования ИИ OpenRouter, увеличилась с 34% в январе до 65%.Citibank в своем отчете особо отметила, что разница в стоимости является ключевым фактором, способствующим этой тенденции. Данные показывают, что некоторые китайские открытые большие модели продолжают сокращать разрыв в производительности с ведущими моделями США, при этом их стоимость за миллион Token составляет всего 18 центов, в то время как средняя стоимость ведущих больших моделей в отрасли составляет около 4 долларов, что превышает разницу в стоимости более чем в 20 раз.

Due to Citigroup analysts lowering their price forecasts for Bitcoin and Ethereum, the stock of cryptocurrency exchange Gemini (GEMI) fell more than 16% on Wednesday. Citigroup downgraded Gemini's rating from "Neutral" to "Sell," and significantly cut its target price from $13 to $5.5, citing that the exchange may take years to achieve profitability.Analysts indicated that as the U.S. midterm elections approach, the likelihood of significant cryptocurrency legislation passing this year is decreasing.

Citigroup has lowered its 12-month price target for Bitcoin from $143,000 to $112,000, and for Ethereum from $4,304 to $3,175.The bank pointed out that factors such as the stalled progress of U.S. cryptocurrency legislation, declining expectations for ETF fund inflows, and weak on-chain activity are the main reasons for this adjustment in forecasts. The current market trend remains highly dependent on U.S. regulatory developments. Although the CLARITY Act has passed in the House of Representatives, its progress in the Senate has been stalled, and legislative uncertainty continues to restrict institutional capital entry.Citigroup also stated that despite the recent resilience of ETF fund inflows, it has lowered its 12-month fund inflow expectations for Bitcoin and Ethereum to $10 billion and $2.5 billion, respectively. However, Citigroup indicated that in an optimistic scenario, Bitcoin could still reach $165,000 and Ethereum $4,488.

According to Cambodian media, Huionepay Group announced that due to recent changes in the external market environment, there has been a concentrated run on funds by millions of users in a short period. To ensure the safety of user funds and the smooth progress of subsequent payment processes, a phased delay in payment arrangements has been implemented after careful assessment and internal research.In response to this matter, the security agency Bitrace stated that Huionepay primarily operates its stablecoin payment business on the Ethereum and Tron networks. Among them, all business addresses on the Ethereum network had almost exhausted their USDT balances by October, with the last effective transfer occurring on November 3, after which there were no related withdrawal activities; on the Tron network, the business shutdown was gradual. On the 3rd, 7th, 17th, 19th, and 24th of that month, Huionepay gradually consolidated the balances of hot wallet addresses into at least a few addresses for user withdrawals. This fund was exhausted around the 28th, after which new addresses were urgently activated to consolidate user address funds to maintain operations.On-chain analysis shows that the daily USDT outflow from Huionepay has decreased from a peak of 41.83 million at the beginning of the month to 7.17 million on the 30th. Currently, on-chain analysis indicates that after Huionepay processed the last user withdrawal request on December 1 at 13:00 UTC+8, it completely stopped small withdrawals. Although the activity of consolidating user address funds is still ongoing, the funds are no longer flowing to ordinary user addresses but are being transferred out in large amounts. As of December 2, 2025, Huionepay's on-chain addresses had only 990,000 USDT remaining. This also means that the entity indeed ceased operations on December 1, consistent with the announcement made by Huione Group.

In response to Arthur Hayes' doubts about USDT operations, former Citibank crypto research head Joseph stated on the X platform that @CryptoHayes' analysis missed several key points:Disclosure of assets ≠ total corporate assetsUSDT discloses reserves based on the "matching principle," but its undisclosed balance sheet includes equity investment income, mining operations, corporate reserves, and potential Bitcoin holdings, with remaining profits distributed to shareholders in the form of dividends.Ultra-high profit margins and equity valueTether holds $120 billion in U.S. Treasury bonds (with an annual yield of 4%), generating an annual net profit of about $10 billion starting in 2023 (with only 150 employees), making it the world's most efficient money printer;The equity valuation could reach $50-100 billion (recently planning to raise $20 billion for a 3% equity stake, with a high valuation but strong fundamentals).Comparative advantages of bank-level reservesTraditional banks maintain only 5-15% liquid assets, while USDT's collateralization rate is clearly higher.Key difference: banks have central bank lender of last resort support, while USDT relies on its own asset liquidity.Conclusion: Tether not only will not face a crisis but also controls the strongest profit engine in the crypto world.Subsequently, Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino expressed his gratitude for the support in the comments section.

Additionally, in the pilot, Citibank utilized the test version of USDC on the Ethereum Sepolia testnet to simulate a near-production environment.

According to CoinDesk, Wall Street giant Citibank has warned that Bitcoin's weak trading pattern may signal a downturn in the Nasdaq 100 index.Citibank analysts noted in a report on Thursday that Bitcoin's trading behavior has historically been closely correlated with the performance of the Nasdaq 100: when the cryptocurrency's price is above the 55-day moving average, Nasdaq's returns significantly improve. Currently, Bitcoin has fallen below this threshold, and the risk-adjusted returns in the stock market have weakened. The bank's analysts attributed the recent weakness in cryptocurrencies mainly to tightening liquidity conditions. The U.S. Treasury's rebuilding of cash balances, combined with a decline of about $500 billion in bank reserves since mid-July, has drained liquidity and put pressure on risk assets. However, the report pointed out that the Treasury's balance is now approaching levels where rebuilding typically stops, suggesting that liquidity may soon improve, thereby boosting Bitcoin and stocks.
