By December 10 2025, money market pricing signalled European Central Bank rate hikes by the end of 2026, while Polymarket traders were still largely betting on no change in policy, according to market data. Swaps implied 13 basis points of tightening and German 5‑year yields rose to 2.49%, even as Polymarket showed around 84% odds that the ECB would not raise rates. ECB President Christine Lagarde has defended the current 2% level and pointed to a potentially more positive economic outlook that could support later rate increases.

On Wednesday, the compromised WeChat account of Binance co-CEO Yi He was used to promote a BNB Chain memecoin called Mubarakah. The attacker allegedly created two new wallets, spent 19,479 USDT to buy 21.16 million tokens, and made roughly $55,000 in profit after an 800% price spike and subsequent sell-off, according to onchain analyst Lookonchain. Yi He later said the account had been recovered and warned users to stay alert to scam attempts.

According to the article, France’s AMF has updated its complex-instruments framework to allow crypto-indexed ETNs for retail buyers without the previous heavy warning labels.

Yi He was appointed co-CEO of Binance last week, and this week a hacker allegedly took over her WeChat account to promote the little-known memecoin Mubarakah, according to one analyst. The attacker reportedly used only a few thousand dollars to build a position in the token, helped drive its valuation close to $5 million, then exited, leaving traders with losses of about 45% from the peak. Binance founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) later apologized and criticized Web2 social media security, while Yi He confirmed the hack and said the old phone number linked to her WeChat account could not be recovered.

On 10 December 2025, investors await the Federal Reserve’s policy statement and Chair Jerome Powell’s 2 p.m. ET remarks. Markets are pricing an 89.9% chance of a rate cut and a 97% probability of a 25-basis-point move, according to CME FedWatch and Polymarket. Equities and crypto are trading cautiously, with Bitcoin near $93,000 and futures modestly lower.

The Federal Reserve is expected to deliver a 25bps cut today, its third of 2025, setting the federal funds target range at 3.5%–3.75%. Policymakers remain divided, with some warning further easing could reignite inflation while others cite mounting labor‑market risks. Markets have largely priced in the move, and attention is on Jerome Powell’s remarks and the FOMC statement for signals on the likelihood of additional cuts.
