#Sony's Blockchain Launch Met with Opposition#
Hot Topic Overview
Overview
Sony's recently launched Ethereum Layer 2 blockchain Soneium is facing backlash from the memecoin community. Soneium aims to serve content creators and their communities, but its launch has sparked controversy. Additionally, Bitcoin analysts are rethinking their Trump inauguration strategy, as Trump's campaign promises of crypto support had generated higher expectations, while the reality is that the political machinery in Washington tends to move at a slower pace. With the inauguration approaching, the attractiveness of sell-the-news has diminished. On the other hand, the trend of corporate Bitcoin ownership is on the rise, with companies like MicroStrategy buying Bitcoin being an “overlooked megatrend,” and with reputational risk declining and new FASB accounting rules in place, corporate holders are “about to explode.”

Analysis
Sony's newly launched blockchain subsidiary, Soneium, which aims to serve content creators and their communities, has faced strong opposition from memecoin. This event has raised questions about Sony's blockchain project. Analysts believe that Sony's launch of the blockchain project may be related to Trump's campaign promise to support cryptocurrency, but the slow pace of the Washington political machine and the increasing number of corporate holders have reduced the appeal of selling Bitcoin. Matt Hougan, CIO of Bitwise, believes that companies like MicroStrategy buying Bitcoin is an "overlooked megatrend," and with the reduction of reputational risk and the release of new FASB accounting rules, the number of corporate holders is "about to explode."
