Stablecoin turmoil escalates: large-scale financing projects caught in regulatory storm

2025-12-30 18:20:12

【Crypto World】Recently, the cryptocurrency market has stirred up another wave. Some large-scale crypto projects are facing increasing scrutiny, including flagship stablecoin products and various meme tokens.

It is reported that relevant regulatory authorities are intensifying their focus on these types of projects. Among them, a cluster of projects with a funding scale of approximately $800 million has attracted strong concern from policymakers due to multiple risk factors. Critics point out that these projects concentrate financial power and regulatory authority, creating unprecedented conflicts of interest — from stablecoin mechanism design to the issuance of meme tokens, there is a clear imbalance of power within the ecosystem.

More notably, the potential risks behind these projects go far beyond the surface. The association of certain trading platforms (such as a well-known DEX) with these products has raised attention, especially regarding the potential for illegal financial activities. Federal investigations officially commenced in December last year, focusing on the compliance of stablecoins, transparency of token issuance, and potential national security threats posed by the entire ecosystem.

This wave of regulation reflects a deeper issue: the delicate balance between innovation and risk control in crypto projects is becoming increasingly fragile. Whether it’s the centralized architecture of stablecoins or the speculative nature of meme coins, they are both testing the existing regulatory framework. Market participants need to closely monitor subsequent developments, as this storm could reshape the rules of the entire crypto ecosystem.

Here we go again, this wave of regulation is really no joke Projects worth 800 million have to kneel, it shows this is really coming back The stablecoin storm is escalating, meme tokens are also caught in the crossfire? Ridiculous I agree with the term "power imbalance," it should have been investigated long ago DEXs are also being dragged into it, feels like the entire ecosystem is rotten through When the federal government steps in, it's never a good thing, let's wait and see what happens next Someone is going to suffer a huge loss this time, I just want to see who will become the scapegoat Where is the promised decentralization? Turns out it was just played by a few people Regulation always comes suddenly and fiercely, no one can escape it

800 million dollar game, regulation can dismantle it with a single strike. I've seen this trick too many times already. Stablecoins? Don't make me laugh. Centralization will inevitably lead to a crash. Here we go again. I'm directly passing on the meme coin wave. It's too outrageous. The imbalance of power is truly disgusting. The ecosystem parasites need to be cleaned out. DEXs are also being dragged into the mess? It seems no one can stay out of it.

Here we go again, this time it's stablecoins crashing... A $800 million project is directly targeted When will regulation finally shut up? It's really annoying Power imbalance? Laughable, there's never been a perfect balance in crypto DEXs are also involved? This is to ruin the entire ecosystem Are meme tokens also considered violations? Fine, I give up trying to understand Once federal investigations start, it's basically over, history repeats itself These people just raise funds and wait to die, I've truly never seen smart ones

$800 million big projects can't even withstand it, regulation is really here Stablecoins should have been regulated properly long ago, the power imbalance is too outrageous Meme tokens? Have we really come to this point? LOL Federal investigations have already begun, now it's something to watch DEXs are being dragged into this again, one pitfall after another Centralized control of financial power, in the end, it's the same old trick Thinking of those previous projects, they all end up the same Regulatory storms are coming, and retail investors are still sleepwalking $800 million burned, is this the current state of Web3? An ecosystem with a power imbalance, will eventually crash

Here it comes again, I've seen this routine too many times A project worth 800 million USD can't withstand an investigation? That clearly indicates a big problem The point about the imbalance of power is correct; the combination of stablecoins and meme tokens is inherently absurd The issue also involves DEXs, it feels like a chain reaction is underway --- Wait, can meme token projects really raise 8 billion? The project teams this time are truly outrageous --- Regulatory action is just like this, giving no time for response --- Centralized power = cutting leeks, that's a law, right? --- They started investigating last December? Then it should be almost done now, there will probably be big news soon --- In the end, it's still the same old story: beautify and package it, centralized control, take a cut and run --- Stablecoin issues are the most troublesome, the impact is too widespread --- Illegal financial activities? As soon as you hear that term, you know it's a big deal
