Odaily Planet Daily reports that Argentine cryptocurrency platform Lemon Cash confirmed on December 4th that some users' names and email addresses were leaked due to a hacking attack on its external analytics service provider, Mixpanel, on November 9th. However, Lemon Cash emphasized that its own system was unaffected, and users' private keys, mnemonic phrases, funds, and account balances remained untouched. The company has sent emails to affected users, warning them of potential phishing attacks. Notably, OpenAI, also a Mixpanel client, terminated its partnership with the service provider following this incident.
Previously, it was reported that Argentine cryptocurrency app Lemon Cash had laid off approximately 100 employees, representing 38% of its total workforce. Lemon Cash revealed that it completed a $27.8 million Series A extension funding round this year, with participation from DST Global, Valor Capital, GoodWater Capital, CMT Digital, and Cadenza, bringing its total Series A funding to $44 million.
According to an article published on the X platform by Delphi Digital, as reported by Odaily Planet Daily, the Federal Reserve's reverse repurchase agreement (RRP) balance has fallen from a peak of over $2 trillion to almost zero, meaning its liquidity buffer has been exhausted.
In 2023, the RRP was large enough to buffer the replenishment of the Treasury's General Account (TGA) by absorbing Treasury bond issuance, thus avoiding the depletion of bank reserves. As the RRP balance bottomed out, this buffer disappeared. Any future Treasury bond issuance or TGA restructuring would directly deplete bank reserves.
The Federal Reserve faces two choices: allow reserves to decline and risk another surge in repo rates, or directly expand its balance sheet to provide liquidity. Given the situation in 2019, the second option is more likely. This means the Fed will shift from withdrawing liquidity to injecting it back into the market, a significant change from the past two years.
With the end of quantitative tightening (QT) and the impending reduction of TGA, marginal liquidity has turned net positive for the first time since early 2022. A key headwind in the cryptocurrency market may be receding.

Citadel recommended that the SEC strictly define the role of intermediaries such as decentralized trading protocols, sparking opposition from some crypto enthusiasts who argue that traditional rules are inapplicable to DeFi architectures. Coinbase stated that rule differences should be reviewed on a case-by-case basis to avoid imposing inapplicable obligations. SEC Chairman Atkins stated that a compliance path should be provided to promote innovative development in tokenization. (The Block)

According to a report released Wednesday by JPMorgan Chase Managing Director Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou and his team, the recent continued pressure on Bitcoin prices is mainly due to two factors: the recent decline in Bitcoin network hashrate and mining difficulty, and the latest developments surrounding Strategy.
Analysts say the decline in hashrate and mining difficulty reflects the combined effect of two forces: China reiterating its ban on Bitcoin mining after a surge in private mining activity, and lower Bitcoin prices and high energy costs squeezing profits, leading high-cost miners outside of China to exit the market.
While a drop in hashrate typically increases miners’ revenue, analysts say that “Bitcoin’s price continues to hover below its production costs,” putting selling pressure on the first and largest cryptocurrency.
JPMorgan analysts have now lowered their estimate of Bitcoin's production cost to $90,000, down from $94,000 last month. The analysts estimate this update is based on an electricity price assumption of $0.05 per kilowatt-hour; for high-cost producers, every $0.01 per kilowatt-hour increase would add $18,000 to their production costs.
A JPMorgan report stated, "Some high-cost miners have been forced to sell Bitcoin in recent weeks due to squeezed profits caused by rising electricity costs and falling Bitcoin prices."
Even so, analysts say miners are not the primary driver of Bitcoin's next move. Instead, they believe Strategy's balance sheet and its ability to avoid selling Bitcoin are the key factors. (The Block)

According to Odaily Planet Daily, the total sovereign debt issued by the U.S. Treasury has surpassed $30 trillion for the first time, more than doubling since 2018. Data released on Thursday showed that as of November, the total outstanding U.S. government Treasury bills, notes, and bonds reached $30.2 trillion. This $30.2 trillion debt is the main component of the total U.S. federal debt. As of November, the total U.S. national debt reached $38.4 trillion, including debts to Social Security Trust Funds, savings bondholders, and others. According to data from the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, the U.S. raised $4.3 trillion in 2020 through the issuance of these three types of bonds, with a fiscal deficit exceeding $3 trillion that year. Although the deficit has since narrowed (reaching approximately $1.78 trillion in fiscal year 2025), interest payments alone have reached $1.2 trillion. Citigroup interest rate strategist Jason Williams pointed out: "The biggest challenge is interest expenses. Even if tariff revenue reaches $300-400 billion, it's still far less than the interest we pay on existing debt. We're like sinking into quicksand; tariffs might slow our sinking a little, but we're still sinking." (Jinshi)
