PANews reported on November 3 that Lu Lei, Vice Governor of the People's Bank of China, stated that the PBOC attaches great importance to cross-border payment cooperation with Hong Kong, explores the use of various financial technology innovations, actively promotes cross-border payment connectivity, and facilitates the integrated development of the two regions' economies. In his speech at the Hong Kong Fintech Week Startup Festival, Lu Lei stated that the Cross-border Interbank Payment System (CIPS) has been continuously expanding its business in Hong Kong. In recent years, the system has successively added the northbound and southbound fund settlement functions of Bond Connect and launched Hong Kong dollar payment and clearing business. As of the end of September, there were 11 direct participants and 120 indirect participants in Hong Kong, providing safe and efficient cross-border clearing and settlement services for international trade and investment financing. He added that they are actively promoting the interconnection and cooperation of the two places' fast payment systems. Cross-border payment was successfully launched online in June this year, providing residents of both places with fast online bilateral local currency and bilateral RMB remittance services. Currently, the system is operating smoothly, business processing is normal, and the public response has been positive. Lu Lei pointed out that to deepen the interconnection of cross-border QR code payments, the People's Bank of China recently organized the establishment of a unified cross-border QR code gateway, which serves as a unified interface for carrying out cross-border QR code payment cooperation, further facilitating cross-border QR code payment cooperation between institutions in both regions. He stated that in the future, the digital yuan will be used to explore new solutions for cross-border payments, including promoting multilateral central bank digital currency bridge cooperation and exploring new paradigms for cross-border payments; relying on the digital yuan cross-border payment platform to provide Chinese solutions for central bank digital currency cross-border payment cooperation; and building a dual platform of blockchain and digital assets to activate a new engine for the value internet.PANews reported on November 3 that Lu Lei, Vice Governor of the People's Bank of China, stated that the PBOC attaches great importance to cross-border payment cooperation with Hong Kong, explores the use of various financial technology innovations, actively promotes cross-border payment connectivity, and facilitates the integrated development of the two regions' economies.

UK FCA Plans to Waive Some Rules for Crypto Companies: FT
The post UK FCA Plans to Waive Some Rules for Crypto Companies: FT appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The U.K.’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has plans to waive some of its rules for cryptocurrency companies, according to a Financial Times (FT) report on Wednesday. However, in another areas the FCA intends to tighten the rules where they pertain to industry-specific risks, such as cyber attacks. The financial watchdog wishes to adapt its existing rules for financial service companies to the unique nature of cryptoassets, the FT reported, citing a consultation paper published Wednesday. “You have to recognize that some of these things are very different,” David Geale, the FCA’s executive director for payments and digital finance, said in an interview, according to the report, adding that a “lift and drop” of existing traditional finance rules would not be effective with crypto. One such area that may be handled differently is the stipulation that a firm “must conduct its business with integrity” and “pay due regard to the interest of its customers and treat them fairly.” Crypto companies would be given less strict requirements than banks or investment platforms on rules concerning senior managers, systems and controls, as cryptocurrency firms “do not typically pose the same level of systemic risk,” the FCA said. Firms would also not have to offer customers a cooling off period due to the voltatile nature of crypto prices, nor would technology be classed as an outsourcing arrangement requiring extra risk management. This is because blockchain technology is often permissionless, meaning anyone can participate without the input of an intermediary. Other areas of crypto regulation remain undecided. The FCA has plans to fully integrate cryptocurrency into its regulatory framework from 2026.

Cardano Price Prediction: Will ADA Reach $5 in 2025, and Can Mutuum Finance (MUTM) Beats Its ROI This Cycle?
The post Cardano Price Prediction: Will ADA Reach $5 in 2025, and Can Mutuum Finance (MUTM) Beats Its ROI This Cycle? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Cardano (ADA) has been the toughest Ethereum competitor for a while, and there are some bulls contemplating a push towards $5 should the upcoming market cycle work out. However, while ADA’s promise is supported by sustained adoption and network growth, Mutuum Finance (MUTM) is building up steam for its explosive ROI prospects. At just $0.035 in presale, MUTM is built on a twin lending-and-borrowing platform for real-world utility that creates a growth narrative stronger than ADA’s. Mutuum Finance could leave Cardano much behind before ADA even reaches $5. Cardano: Resistance Ahead Amid Strong Fundamentals Cardano (ADA) is trading around $0.90, with recent price movement capped by resistance just above $1.00. In this scenario, price action shows that while support at $0.80 remains solid, significant upside may be difficult under current conditions without new catalysts or increased capital flows. Network expansion is still going on at a slow pace, governance upgrades, staking rewards, and smart contract enhancement are ongoing, which keeps ADA’s basement price intact. However, comparatively speaking, Mutuum Finance is offering higher potential return under current market conditions. Mutuum Finance (MUTM) Exceeds Expectations Mutuum Finance is now in stage six of its presale at $0.035 after its 16.17% increase from the previous stage. The market is witnessing unprecedented demand for the project where more than 16,410 investors have joined and exceeded $16.1 million in funds raised. Mutuum Finance (MUTM) also initiated a $50,000 USDT Bug Bounty Program for the platform’s security. The bugs have been segmented on four levels depending on the tag critical, major, minor, and low. Mutuum Finance possesses strong safety measures for any asset which is collateraled so that protocol’s and user’s safety are not lost. They possess target collateral ratios, lending and deposit limits. Off close undercollateralized positions are incentivized as a means of maintaining systemic…
