Odaily Planet Daily reports that there are rumors that Chinese regulators are examining Jane Street’s trading behavior in the Chinese ETF market. However, a person close to Jane Street stated, “We are unaware of these rumors and have no reason to believe they are true. These rumors should not be linked to Jane Street.” This week, Jane Street, along with its co-founders and two employees, was accused of insider trading, fraud, and market manipulation. These actions are also believed to have accelerated the collapse of TerraUSD (UST) stablecoin and its sister token Luna, which together lost $40 billion in 2022.
Founded in 1999, Jane Street is one of the world’s largest proprietary quantitative trading firms. In 2024, it is expected to generate over $20 billion in net trading revenue with nearly $13 billion in net profit. Unlike hedge funds, Jane Street does not accept external client funds, which results in lower disclosure obligations compared to traditional asset management firms. This structure has helped maintain its long-standing mystery. (Caixin)

ETF Frenzy for Capital Inflow, Strong Bearish Momentum in Futures: Bitcoin Surges Past $69,000, Can the Short-term Rebound Continue?
Despite ongoing geopolitical uncertainties, the cryptocurrency market has demonstrated remarkable resilience, with Bitcoin breaking through $69,000 today (4) and approaching the $70,000 mark again. Market analysis indicates that this rally is less about investors' "bullish confidence" returning and more about a technical rebound driven by "short covering."
Crypto market maker Enflux pointed out that the market has neither fully priced in the disaster nor placed optimistic bets on a resolution. Last weekend, shorts capitalized on news of Middle Eastern military conflicts, causing Bitcoin to drop to $63,000. However, once the market realized that the situation was not escalating into a full-scale regional war affecting global trade routes, the long-suppressed short positions were quickly hunted down, triggering a short squeeze.
Enflux described in its report that the reaction speed of crypto assets to geopolitical shocks far exceeds that of traditional assets:
