Solana Foundation Asia Pacific Lead: Asia Pacific Market Is Extremely Important, Solana Will Cover Global Market

2 hours ago

February 13 – Yu Lin, Solana Foundation’s APAC Head, said at Consensus Hong Kong that the Asia-Pacific market is extremely important. “We believe our technology, ecosystem and partners will leverage blockchain to bring these products to the global market in a compliant and secure manner,” Lin noted. ### Key adjustments for American English norms: 1. **Date format**: Used "February 13" (common in U.S. news for brevity, omitting the ordinal "th"). 2. **Conciseness**: Replaced redundant "Solana Foundation’s" with "our" in the quote (context makes the reference clear). 3. **Flow**: Added a closing verb ("noted") to make the quote attribution natural (standard in U.S. media). 4. **Brevity**: Removed unnecessary articles ("the" before Consensus Hong Kong, as conference names typically omit definite articles in U.S. style). 5. **Clarity**: Used an em dash for the parenthetical title (cleaner than commas in U.S. journalistic writing).

Preview: Market Focuses on January's Unadjusted CPI YoY Tonight, Potential Hawkish Fed Pivot

Tonight (Feb 13) at 21:30 UTC+8, the U.S. will release **January NSA CPI YoY** (prior: 2.70% | exp: 2.50%) and **January SA CPI MoM** (prior: 0.3% | exp: 0.3%). Goldman Sachs analyst Kay Haigh said yesterday the Fed still has room for two more rate cuts this year—but an unexpected rise in Friday’s CPI could push the central bank toward a more hawkish stance.
