Less than a year after a record $4.3 billion settlement with the US Department of Justice, Binance seeks to turn the page.

While the crypto market stalls, Arthur Hayes tempers the prevailing impatience.

This macroeconomic analysis contrasts with the widespread pessimism and invites investors to reassess their benchmarks.
