PANews reported on September 28th that according to Cointelegraph, Ray Youssef, founder of the peer-to-peer lending platform NoOnes, pointed out that the current rise of crypto asset reserve companies is similar to the investment frenzy during the dot-com bubble and carries significant market risks. He believes that although the entry of institutions marks the entry of cryptocurrencies into a mainstream asset class, most reserve companies will find it difficult to sustain and may be forced to sell their holdings, triggering the next bear market. Only a few companies will be able to continue accumulating assets at a discount. Youssef stressed that companies can improve their survivability if they adopt prudent strategies. Reducing debt burden is key. Issuing new shares is safer than borrowing to finance, and can avoid facing debt repayment pressure during market downturns. Debt maturities should be set reasonably, such as spanning a typical four-year market cycle, to reduce liquidity risks. In terms of asset selection, focus should be placed on cryptocurrencies with a capped supply or blue-chip assets with long-term resilience, rather than altcoins that are highly volatile and may permanently depreciate. In addition, companies with actual businesses and sources of income have advantages over pure asset reserve companies, which lack continuous cash flow, rely solely on financing operations, and have weaker risk resistance. Through responsible asset and risk management, some companies can not only withstand market downturns, but even achieve growth against the trend.PANews reported on September 28th that according to Cointelegraph, Ray Youssef, founder of the peer-to-peer lending platform NoOnes, pointed out that the current rise of crypto asset reserve companies is similar to the investment frenzy during the dot-com bubble and carries significant market risks.

The post ‘We Didn’t Get It Done In Time’ appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline A new episode of “South Park” will not air Wednesday night as originally planned, series creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone announced Wednesday afternoon, delaying the show’s first episode since it faced scrutiny for satirizing conservative activist Charlie Kirk weeks before his assassination. “South Park” creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker said Wednesday afternoon they did not finish a new episode of the series in time.

We didn’t get it done in time.” Comedy Central confirmed to Forbes the delayed episode, the fifth episode of season 27, would instead air next Wednesday, Sept. 24, at 10 p.m. EDT. Some “South Park” fans noticed by Wednesday, no teaser trailer or synopsis for the upcoming episode had been released, a break from previous weeks in which the “South Park” social media accounts would tease new episodes days in advance. After the new episode on Sept. 24, the show will take a three-week break, according to Comedy Central, with new episodes airing every two weeks beginning Oct. 15. According to Comedy Central’s schedule for Wednesday night, the new episode was slated to air after reruns of all the season 27 episodes released so far—except for the second episode, “Got a Nut,” which Comedy Central pulled from the air after Kirk was assassinated.
