SpaceX has raised its IPO valuation target to over $2 trillion as it prepares to market what could be the largest IPO in history to potential investors. SpaceX's valuation is expected to grow by nearly two-thirds within months. In February, SpaceX acquired Elon Musk's xAI, valuing the combined company at $1.25 trillion. A listing with a valuation exceeding $2 trillion would give SpaceX a market capitalization exceeding all companies in the S&P 500 except Nvidia, Apple, Alphabet, Microsoft, and Amazon, as well as Meta and Tesla. SpaceX has secretly filed for an IPO, with the listing potentially taking place as early as June, and is expected to raise up to $75 billion, far surpassing the previous record of $29 billion set by Saudi Aramco in 2019. The funds raised will be used for space-based AI data centers and lunar factory projects. SpaceX has selected Bank of America, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, and Morgan Stanley as lead underwriters for its IPO and plans to hold a conference call with the banking syndicate next Monday, followed by an analyst briefing later in April. Bloomberg Intelligence analysts point out that SpaceX's revenue is projected to reach nearly $20 billion by 2026, with launch operations and Starlink contributing the majority of that revenue.

According to the announcement from Binance, the platform is celebrating Easter with a community activity that offers participants the chance to share 8,000 USDC in token vouchers. The event is divided into two separate activities on Discord and WhatsApp, each with its own set of rules and rewards. The Discord Egg Hunt runs from 2026-04-03 12:00 (UTC) to 2026-04-13 12:00 (UTC). Participants are required to join the Binance Discord server and search for a hidden Easter Egg emoji each day. Once found, users must note the number next to the emoji and submit it in the #easter-egg-hunt channel using the format “!egg” followed by the number. Daily rewards of 1,000 USDC will be distributed, with the first 10 users who correctly identify the daily egg number receiving $10 in USDC. Additionally, a final completion reward of 4,000 USDC will be shared among the first 1,000 users who submit all 10 egg numbers correctly, with each receiving 4 USDC. Participants can earn a maximum of 14 USDC during the activity period. The WhatsApp Egg Hunt takes place from 2026-04-03 12:00 (UTC) to 2026-04-10 23:59 (UTC). Participants must join the Binance WhatsApp channel, where daily posts will provide hints to locate hidden egg numbers across the Binance ecosystem. Users are required to complete a daily survey with the correct egg number. A total of 3,000 USDC in token vouchers will be equally shared among users who answer all seven surveys correctly. Rewards will be distributed before 2026-04-30, and users can redeem their token voucher rewards via the Rewards Hub. Binance emphasizes that only verified users who confirm participation during the promotion period are eligible for rewards.

A working paper published by the Bank of Canada shows that Aave V3 achieved zero non-performing loans in 2024, but its risk control mechanism essentially transfers all losses to borrowers to protect lenders' interests (BOC). Based on transaction data from January 27, 2023 to May 6, 2025, the study found that Aave V3, relying on over-collateralization and automatic liquidation mechanisms, completed liquidation before the collateral value fell below the outstanding debt, effectively curbing lenders' losses. However, this model comes at the expense of borrowers' interests, and its capital efficiency is lower than traditional lending systems. The paper also points out that recursive leverage (i.e., repeatedly borrowing with collateral and then using the lent assets as new collateral in a cyclical operation) accounted for over 20% of the total loan volume and 8.2% of the number of loans, exacerbating borrowers' risk exposure during market downturns. Liquidation events showed a concentrated outbreak, with WETH, wstETH, WBTC, and weETH accounting for 90% of the total liquidation value. (Cointelegraph)

In a recent interview, Cathie Wood, founder of Ark Invest, stated that Bitcoin has entered a mature stage, and the historically common 85%–95% plunges may be a thing of the past. She pointed out that even a future retracement of 50% would be considered a "significant step forward" within the Bitcoin community, believing that Bitcoin has grown from an emerging technology into a "mature monetary system and asset class." In a previous cycle, Bitcoin fell nearly 80% from its 2021 high of approximately $69,000, hitting a low of $15,600.
