Earlier this week, crypto market gains were driven in part by Ethereum outperforming after Solana assets were swapped into ETH. Separately, Binance has moved to increase transparency by requiring token projects to disclose the identities of market makers and key contract terms. Both developments highlight ongoing shifts in exchange policy and sector flows.
