Crypto KOL Qwerty today addressed Binance’s management team in Chinese on X, urging the exchange to slow down its token listing pace. He stated, “New Alpha projects are listed almost every day now, and around 75% of these Alpha projects eventually make their way to Binance’s derivatives or spot markets. As the listing pace accelerates, the scarcity, credibility, and value that once defined Binance’s listings are gradually being eroded. I sincerely hope Binance can appropriately slow down its listing speed, focus more on the authenticity of projects and communities, and reserve opportunities for projects that truly have real culture, real users, strong communities, and are truly worthy of Binance’s recognition.” Notably, Qwerty, a top KOL on the FOMO platform, was just followed by Binance co-founder He Yi on September 5. Additionally, he is the second-largest individual whale holder of “Niu Lai,” a token Binance listed on its spot market yesterday. Recently, Binance launched spot trading for MarsCoin and Niu Lai, but both tokens have underperformed since their listings. MarsCoin’s price even halved within four days of its spot listing.

In its latest macro report, BCA noted that in Q1 2026, IT investment in software, hardware, and data centers contributed 0.8 percentage points to U.S. real GDP growth, marking a new high this century. When compared to the 1990s tech investment cycle, current AI capital expenditure could still persist for another three to five years. The institution added that improved data center revenue and profit margins have laid the foundation for continued expansion among hyperscale cloud providers. Even if the commercialization of frontier large models faces price wars, falling model usage costs may drive more enterprises to adopt AI, further boosting demand for computing power, servers, electricity, and data centers. However, BCA also warned that a key variable to watch may come from equity supply. The report identifies "mega-IPOs" as a critical alarm for overheated markets: when large new listings surge and financing scales expand rapidly, market liquidity will be siphoned off, and valuation expansion is more prone to stalling. Its historical charts show that within two years of major IPOs, the S&P 500 index has averaged a peak-to-trough drawdown of around 24%. BCA’s judgment is that AI capital expenditure will still underpin earnings and growth, but mega-IPOs, financing conditions, and rising yields will determine when this rally shifts from "earnings-driven" to a "liquidity test."
