According to Bubblemaps monitoring, suspicious liquidity provider (LP) activity has been observed in the NYC token launched by former New York City Mayor Eric Adams. The project team allegedly withdrew over $1 million by repeatedly transferring USDC into and out of liquidity pools. NYC's market capitalization once reached $600 million, subsequently falling below $100 million. The wallet 9Ty4M (9Ty4...) associated with NYC deployers created a one-sided LP on Meteora. This address removed approximately $2.5 million of USDC at the price peak and then added approximately $1.5 million of USDC back after a 60% price drop.

Huoxun Finance News, January 13th - According to The Block, Republican Senator Cynthia Lummis and Democratic Senator Ron Wyden have introduced a bill explicitly stating that software developers who do not control user funds should not be considered money transferors—a move by senators to rapidly prepare a broader cryptocurrency bill. The "Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act," introduced by Lummis and Wyden, was submitted on Monday and echoes work already completed in the House of Representatives. The bill would establish clear guidelines on when developers and service providers can be exempt from laws related to money transfers. Wyden stated in a statement, "Forcing developers who write code to follow the same rules as exchanges or brokers is technically unreasonable and constitutes an infringement on Americans' privacy and freedom of speech rights." Sources indicate that the Senate bill may be incorporated into the current version of cryptocurrency market structure legislation by the Senate Banking Committee. Previously, the Senate Agriculture Committee had been considering the cryptocurrency market structure bill until the last week of January.

According to a report by Fortune magazine on January 13th, former New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced a cryptocurrency project called "NYCToken," aimed at raising funds to combat anti-Semitism and anti-American sentiment, and to educate children about blockchain technology. However, specific details of the project remain quite vague. At a brief launch event in Times Square, Adams did not specify how the token would specifically combat anti-Semitism, nor did he disclose partners, launch date, or how funds would be used. Adams stated that he will not currently receive a salary from the project, but may reassess it in the future. Adams was a strong supporter of the crypto industry during his presidency, but has also been controversial due to ethical and conflict-of-interest issues. The newly elected mayor, Zohran Mamdani, has stated that he will not purchase the token. According to information posted by Eric Adams on the X platform, NYCToken appears to have been launched on the Solana network, with its market capitalization briefly surging to $700 million before quickly falling back to $95.47 million.
