홍콩, 비트코인 및 이더리움 현물 ETF 승인

After falling by almost 10% over the weekend amid Israel-Iran tension, market chaos, and persistent inflation, Bitcoin rebounded on Monday as Hong Kong announced the approval of its first spot Bitcoin and Ether exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Three offshore Chinese asset managers are planning to launch their spot Bitcoin and Ether ETFs soon, according to a Reuters report on Monday. Unlike mainland China, Hong Kong has always maintained a positive stance on cryptocurrencies, and this latest move suggests its intention to follow the United States in investing in crypto ETFs. Meanwhile, as the Bitcoin halving event approaches, volatility has increased in the Bitcoin and overall cryptocurrency market. The halving, scheduled for around April 19, will reduce the miner reward by half, from 6.25 Bitcoin to 3.125 Bitcoin.

주말 동안 약 10% 하락한 비트코인은 홍콩이 첫 비트코인 및 이더리움 현물 상장지수펀드(ETF) 승인을 발표한 후 15일에 반등했다. 이스라엘-이란 긴장, 시장 혼란, 지속되는 인플레이션 등으로 인해 비트코인이 62,000달러 아래로 떨어졌던 주말 하락세는 15일 아침 2.5% 상승하며 66,000달러를 기록하며 끝났다. 세 개의 중국계 자산운용사들이 곧 현물 비트코인 및 이더리움 ETF를 출시할 예정이라고 로이터는 보도했다. 중국 본토와 달리 홍콩은 항상 암호화폐에 대해 긍정적인 입장을 취해왔으며, 이번 움직임은 미국을 따라 암호화폐 ETF에 투자하려는 의도를 시사한다. 한편, 비트코인 반감기 이벤트가 다가오면서 비트코인과 전체 암호화폐 시장의 변동성이 증가했다. 4월 19일경 예정된 반감기는 채굴자 보상을 6.25 비트코인에서 3.125 비트코인으로 절반으로 줄어들 것이다.

Bitcoin is rebounding after a rollercoaster ride — thanks to Hong Kong

X, AI 훈련용 데이터 제공 허용하는 개인정보 정책 변경

Social media platform X has announced changes to its privacy policy that will allow it to provide user data to third parties for AI model training purposes. The policy, set to take effect on November 15, 2024, is expected to pave the way for external companies to purchase X's data in the form of licenses. The new policy introduces a "third-party collaborators" section, but the specific methods for users to opt out of data sharing remain unclear. This move is seen as a potential new revenue stream for X, which has experienced a decline in advertising revenue. Meanwhile, X has also strengthened penalties for 'scraping', the unauthorized collection of large numbers of tweets. The company has decided to impose a fine of $15,000 for accessing more than one million posts per day. X's owner, Elon Musk, has maintained a tough stance on scraping, and this policy change appears to reflect his attitude.
