Stock dips despite massive Q3 U.S. sales growth

Shares of Chinese toymaker Pop Mart fell 9% Thursday, notching the stock’s worst day since April and extending its declines since a late-August peak.

The company behind the popular Labubu dolls, a series of collectible elf-like monster dolls that come in blind-box packaging, reported on Tuesday that third-quarter revenue had more than tripled year over year as sales in the U.S. swelled between 1,265% and 1,270%.

And yet concerns are growing the craze could be fading.

Data from Chinese resale platform Qiandao shows that some Labubus are being sold close to or below official Pop Mart retail prices, a stark shift after a period of sky-high demand and prices. The Labubu character Luck, released in April, for example, saw its resale price soar to over 500 yuan, or about $70, at one point. But that’s since dropped to 108 yuan, or about $15, according to Qiandao.

Since August, Pop Mart stock has fallen 30%, but is still up 159% so far this year.

Analysts are split on how to interpret the downturn.

One line of thinking is that the falling resale prices could signal slowing enthusiasm for Labubu and other collectibles after a summer peak, particularly among younger, nontraditional toy buyers. Another possibility: The decline may reflect Pop Mart’s efforts to increase supply and curb scalping, rather than waning consumer demand.

Pop Mart reported a 10-fold increase in the supply of plush toys this year and said it now manufactures approximately 30 million units each month, the company told Reuters on Tuesday.

Morgan Stanley analysts noted in a September client note that “prices in the second-hand market do not effectively reflect the true supply and demand situation,” especially given Pop Mart’s initiatives to limit resellers’ influence.

The popularity of the Labubu dolls have been boosted by celebrity fans including singer Rihanna and former soccer star David Beckham. However, Labubus aren’t the only Pop Mart product drawing the eye of nontraditional toy buyers.

Morgan Stanley analysts noted that emerging characters like Twinkle Twinkle and opportunities for global expansion continue to play a key role in driving Pop Mart’s growth.

Short-Term Bitcoin Profits Dominate For The First Time Since 2023

The post Short-Term Bitcoin Profits Dominate For The First Time Since 2023 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin is making another attempt to break the downtrend that has kept the crypto king capped since late October. Price is hovering near $91,000 as investors watch a rare shift in market structure unfold.  For the first time in more than two and a half years, short-term holders have surpassed long-term holders in realized profits, creating both opportunities and risks for BTC. Sponsored Sponsored Bitcoin Sees Some Shift The MVRV Long/Short Difference highlights a notable change in Bitcoin’s profit distribution. A positive reading usually signals long-term holders hold more unrealized gains, while a negative value indicates short-term holders are ahead. In Bitcoin’s case, the difference has dipped into negative territory for the first time since March 2023. This marks 30 months since short-term holders last led in profits. Such dominance raises concerns because short-term holders tend to sell aggressively when volatility increases. Their profit-taking behavior could add pressure on BTC’s price if the broader market weakens, especially during attempts to break the downtrend.

OKX founder responds to Moore Threads co-founder 1,500 BTC debt

OKX founder responds to Moore Threads co-founder 1,500 BTC debt

The post OKX founder responds to Moore Threads co-founder 1,500 BTC debt appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The successful stock market debut of Moore Threads, a company that’s being touted as China’s answer to Nvidia, has been overshadowed by resurfaced allegations that link one of its co-founders to an unpaid cryptocurrency debt that has been lingering for roughly a decade. Shares in the GPU maker skyrocketed to as much as 470% on Thursday following its initial public offering (IPO) on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, valuing the company at around RMB 282 billion ($39.9 billion). However, as the success was being celebrated online, a social media post revived claims that Moore Threads’ co-founder Li Feng borrowed 1,500 Bitcoins from Mingxing “Star” Xu, founder and CEO of cryptocurrency exchange OKX, and never repaid the loan. Crypto past with OKX founder resurfaces In an X post, AB Kuai.Dong referenced Feng’s involvement in a 2017 initial coin offering that raised 5,000 ETH alongside controversial angel investor Xue Manzi. Feng allegedly dismissed the Bitcoin loan, stating, “It was just that Xu Mingxing’s investment in me had failed.” Xu responded to the post with a conciliatory message, writing, “People cannot always remain in the shadow of negative history. Face the future and contribute more positive energy.” He added, “Let the legal system handle the debt issue,” and offered blessings to every entrepreneur. Feng reportedly partnered with Xue Manzi and Li Xiaolai in 2017 to launch Malego Coin, which was later renamed Alpaca Coin MGD. The project reportedly raised approximately 5,000 ETH, but it was around this period that China banned ICOs, allowing regulators to crack down on what they viewed as speculative excess and potential fraud in the cryptocurrency sector. The Bitcoin loan dispute appears separate from the ICO controversy. According to sources familiar with the matter, the original loan agreement was dated December 17, 2014, with an expiry of December 16, 2016.…
