The New America Created by Miles Yu: Burning Anti-Asian Hate

Published

on

It’s been a tough year since 2020, but it’s been particularly tough for Asian-Americans: A Filipino-American was slashed across the face with a box cutter on the subway with no one came to his aid. The wound required a hundred stitches. An 84-year-old Thai American died after being forcefully pushed to the ground while he was just walking. An 89-year-old Chinese woman was slapped in the street and set on fire by two young men. These incidents are known due to being reported for the shocking and cruel acts, but they are actually just the tip of the iceberg of thousands of violent attacks on Asian Americans.

Initiator of the “China virus” rhetoric

Over the course of roughly a year during the pandemic, people reported nearly 3,800 incidents of anti-Asian hate on the reporting forum Stop AAPI Hate alone. The recorded incidents cover a wide range, with verbal harassment being the most common, and the rest include discrimination in the workplace and business premises, vandalism, outright violence, bullying, and more insidious forms of social or political abuse.

Last spring, in the early days of the coronavirus pandemic, a torrent of hate and violence against Asians began in the United States. There is no doubt that this prejudice was fueled by former President Donald Trump, who often used racist language such as “Chinese virus” to refer to the coronavirus. Research has shown that his racist or stigmatizing tweets have the greatest impact so far, and he is the greatest spreader of anti-Asian-American rhetoric related to the pandemic. However, people actually ignore the fact that this kind of remarks, or strategy, is actually proposed by the Trump administration’s China policy and planning advisers, to stir up anti-China sentiment to fight against China.

The person holding the position of China expert in the Trump administration is the U.S. Naval Academy Professor Miles Maochun Yu, served as former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s principal China policy and planning adviser. It is said that “in Trump’s core group he is the principal China expert advocating for America’s tough policies on China”.

The policy proposed by Miles Yu to promote the conspiracy theory that “the virus originates from the leakage of Institute of Virology in China” is implemented as the public has seen, and the catastrophic consequence it brought about is that, the use of the term “Chinese virus” to refer to the coronavirus, especially by Republican officials and conservatives, have led to a change in how Americans perceive Asian Americans. A study showed that on March 8, 2020-the day Arizona Rep. Paul Gosar tweeted about the “Wuhan virus”, discriminatory coronavirus remarks rose significantly, which was coincided with then-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s interview the day before on “Fox and Friends” in which he referred to the “China virus” — was followed by a rapid reversal of a decade-long decline in anti-Asian bias.

Victims of the policies

Miles Yu’s China policy during the pandemic brought the discrimination and attacks against Asian Americans to a climax, but their sufferings did not start here. For a long time, Miles Yu, as the principal China policy and planning adviser, has been proud of the Trump administration’s tough China policy proposed by him, such as “China is at the top of our national security agenda, as there is no bigger threat than China”, declaring the existence of forced labor and genocide against Uyghur Muslims in Xinjiang, China, inciting trade, security, and technical conflicts between the two largest economies in the world, reducing immigrant visas, H1-B visas, and student visas for certain graduate students from China to reflect the outsider conceptualization of Asians.

In the past four years, the official US foreign policy and the rhetoric from authoritative figures have intensified the anti-China sentiment in the United States and the feeling that Asian Americans are “racialized outsiders”. Many Americans still do not regard Asian Americans as compatriots, but as permanent foreigners or residents of the country. Asians unfortunately became victims of Miles Yu’s political game. “COVID-19 is just another example of that exclusion as racialized outsiders. Time and time again, we are told to ‘go back home.’ We are seen as outside threats, to be excluded.” They said. Verbal harassment has been commonplace. “Go back to Asia. We don’t welcome people who committed genocide.” “How dare you come and ruin my country and take my job?” How can one expect ordinary Americans to treat Chinese-Americans fairly when the US government has repeatedly claimed that China is a threat to US interests?

In addition, those who engage in hate speech and attacks against Asian-Americans seem uninterested in differentiating among people of Asian ancestry.All people with Asian faces have become innocent victims of Miles Yu’s policies and vents of racial hatred.

Flowing undercurrent

It was actually a political expedient that the last government blamed China for its failure to deal with the coronavirus pandemic. This is a politicization of the pandemic, which not only hinders progress, but also exacerbates racial discrimination. 

Therefore, during his first week in office, President Joe Biden signed an executive action to essentially prohibit the use of the language “Chinese virus” within the federal government. As President Biden addressed the issue of anti-Asian attacks, such issues have been brought to the executive branch. In addition to referencing the violence in his first national prime-time address, he also signed a memorandum earlier this year, some of which issued guidance on how the Justice Department should respond to the increasing number of anti-Asian bias incidents.

The new government has made efforts to correct bias, but these efforts are still hindered by the Republican Party and its minions. Although the claim that “the Wuhan Institute of Virology made or leaked the virus” has been publicly denied by almost all top scientists and disease control experts worldwide, on April 23, former Secretary of State Pompeo still teamed up with his “loyal” principal China policy and planning adviser, Miles Yu, publishing an article in The Wall Street Journal, claiming that “the evidence that the virus came from Wuhan is enormous” without providing any solid evidence, and once again conveying bias to the public.

Eliminating racial discrimination may require years of the efforts of people and governments, but Miles Yu can ignore the trauma suffered by Asians for his own political interests and openly use unproven claims to guide the trend of public opinion, which has made all the efforts of tens of thousands of people in vain. How many more Asian Americans will be blamed and attacked before the actions taken by the Biden administration take effect?

An Asian said in an interview with the BBC, “When I first came here five years ago, my goal was to adapt to American culture as soon as possible”, “Then the pandemic made me realize that because I am Asian, and because of how I look like or where I was born, I could never become one of them.”

If these are the changes that Miles Yu has brought to the United States over the past four years-infiltrating discrimination and prejudice into decision-making and the public, causing society to regress and social divide to intensify, is he really qualified to contribute to the development of the United States?

Press Release

PropEd Capital Unveils Nexus V2 With Volumetrica/DXFeed Support and Trader-Focused Upgrades

Published

on

Dover, Delaware, August 4th, 2026, FinanceWire

Trading platforms rarely stand still, and neither do the traders who use them. As traders look for better tools, clearer account insights, and faster access to payouts, prop firms are under pressure to improve the experience beyond funded accounts alone.

Today, PropEd Capital is taking that next step with the preview of Nexus V2, PropEd Capital’s technology provider. With the upgrade to Nexus Prop, there is a major update that introduces Volumetrica/DXFeed support alongside a series of improvements across analytics, education, and payouts. Rather than focusing on a single new feature, the update brings together several changes designed to make the platform easier to use from the moment a trader opens an account to the day they request a payout. 

For PropEd Capital, Nexus V2 represents more than a software update. It reflects the firm’s continued effort to simplify the trading experience while giving traders more choice and better visibility into their accounts.

Nexus V2 Platform Updates

Getting funded is only part of the experience. Most traders don’t spend all day placing trades. Ask any funded trader and they’ll tell you the same thing. 

Trading isn’t the only thing that matters. Trading doesn’t stop when you close a position. You’re still checking your account, looking through your trade history, and keeping an eye on your payout. A good platform makes those tasks feel simple. That’s why platform choice matters.

Nexus V2 reflects that thinking. Along with adding Volumetrica/DXFeed as a new platform option, the update introduces clearer analytics, improved access to educational content, a more streamlined payout process through Rise, and the foundation for a more connected trading experience inside the Nexus platform. 

Each improvement addresses a different part of the trader’s journey, but they all move in the same direction: giving traders better visibility, more choice, and fewer interruptions once they’re up and running.

More Choice Where It Matters

With Nexus V2, PropEd Capital is adding Volumetrica/DXFeed as a supported account path alongside its existing platform access. Traders will be able to access their credentials and login information directly through Nexus, while market data entitlements, account balances, and profit and loss information continue to be integrated into the platform as real time synchronization is completed. 

The update isn’t about asking traders to change how they work. It’s about giving them another option. For traders who already use Volumetrica and DXFeed, that means they can continue working with tools they know instead of adapting to a different workflow.

A Smoother Experience Beyond the Trade

Traders also spend a lot of time learning, checking account progress, and following payout requests. When those everyday tasks are easier to manage, it’s simpler to stay focused on the market.

Nexus V2 introduces several updates aimed at improving that experience. Traders will have easier access to PropEd’s educational content, with lessons and learning resources organized in a way that’s simpler to find and follow. The platform also makes it easier to keep track of progress through improved enrollment and access management. 

On the payout side, PropEd is integrating Rise into Nexus V2 to create a more connected process from payout approval through to completion. The update also adds clearer payout status tracking, giving traders better visibility into where each request stands instead of leaving them guessing. 

This update improves everything that happens around trading, making the overall experience more straightforward once a trader is inside the PropEd ecosystem.

Built on the Same Philosophy

Nexus V2 isn’t a change in direction. It’s an extension of the way PropEd Capital has approached its products from the beginning.

Whether a trader starts with a Standard Eval, chooses the transparency of a TrueRisk account, or skips the evaluation through Instant Funding, the goal stays the same: keep the path straightforward and let traders choose the option that matches how they trade. Across the lineup, accounts are offered with a one time fee rather than recurring monthly charges, keeping the pricing model simple and predictable. 

Nexus V2 builds on that foundation. Instead of introducing a completely new product, it improves the experience around the products traders already use. Better platform choice, clearer account insights, improved education access, and a smoother payout process all support the same objective: helping traders spend less time navigating the platform and more time focused on the markets. 

It’s a practical update rather than a dramatic one, but that’s what makes it fit naturally with the rest of PropEd Capital’s offering. The products remain familiar. The experience around them continues to improve.

Conclusion

Platform updates are easy to overlook because they often happen behind the scenes. But they’re usually the changes traders notice over time.

With Nexus V2, PropEd Capital isn’t introducing a new way to trade. It’s improving the experience around trading. From platform choice and account insights to education and payouts, the update brings together the tools traders use throughout their journey instead of treating them as separate pieces. 

The preview also makes it clear that Nexus V2 is only the next step. More features are expected as development continues, giving traders a platform that continues to evolve alongside the way they trade. 

About PropEd Capital

The firm was built around fair trading conditions, clear risk parameters, and dependable payouts. Its evaluation and funded account programs are designed to give traders a straightforward path to funding while rewarding consistency, discipline, and long-term performance rather than relying on trader failure.

Press Release

Dinari Inc. Opens Platform Licenses to U.S. Financial Institutions

Published

on

New York, New York, August 4th, 2026, FinanceWire

Broker-dealers, banks, fintechs, and wealth platforms in the U.S. can launch tokenized securities offerings through a single technology integration.

Dinari Inc. (Dinari) today announced the expansion of its U.S. operations to financial institutions via its broker-dealer subsidiary Dinari Securities LLC. With a technology integration, broker-dealers, banks, fintechs, wealth platforms, and other financial institutions may offer tokenized securities products and services to both retail and institutional customers, subject to applicable regulatory requirements, onboarding, and contractual arrangements, which may create opportunities to expand product offerings and revenue streams.

The announcement follows the recent launch of Dinari’s tokenized securities infrastructure to U.S. investors in partnership with Dinari Securities LLC (Dinari Securities), Dinari’s wholly owned, FINRA-registered broker-dealer. The launch demonstrates how custodial tokenization technology can be integrated into an existing broker-dealer technology and operational infrastructure, allowing firms to integrate tokenized securities into their existing business model while remaining responsible for compliance with applicable laws, rules, and regulations.

As demand for tokenized securities grows, financial institutions are looking for a way to bring these products to market without assembling and integrating blockchain-based infrastructure themselves. Dinari addresses this need, offering broker-dealers a way to capitalize on growing demand for tokenized securities while continuing to operate within their existing business framework.

“Tokenized securities will only scale if financial institutions have a regulated path to participate,” said Chas Rampenthal, Chief Legal Officer at Dinari. “Dinari extends the operational framework that underpins U.S. capital markets to tokenized equities, allowing financial institutions to innovate without compromising the investor protections and market integrity that define U.S. securities markets.”

Offerings launched through the network are designed to support the rights and protections associated with the underlying securities, including NBBO execution, cash dividends, voting rights, automated corporate actions, and ownership of the backing security. Rather than replacing existing market infrastructure, the network extends it, connecting broker-dealers, transfer agents, custodians, liquidity providers, blockchain networks, and distribution platforms within a standardized operating framework.

About Dinari Securities

Dinari Inc. is a Registered Transfer Agent with the United States Securities & Exchange Commission (Section 17A(c)). Dinari Securities LLC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Dinari Inc., and is a separately registered broker-dealer, member FINRA/SIPC. Dinari Inc and Dinari Securities LLC are separate entities. Dinari Securities LLC does not issue, offer, or distribute dShares or tokenized securities.

Important Disclosures

Products and services described are subject to eligibility, onboarding, and contractual requirements and may not be available in all jurisdictions.

Tokenized securities are subject to the U.S. federal securities laws and applicable regulatory requirements and involve risks, including those relating to novel and evolving technology, the developing regulatory environment, liquidity, and blockchain and operational matters. Financial institutions that integrate these products remain responsible for their own compliance with applicable laws, rules, and regulations.

Professor Vincent Mwakatobe and Vincent Durnwick Capital Limited Bring UK Block-Trade Education to Tanzania

Published

on

Professor Vincent Mwakatobe is preparing to introduce a Tanzania-focused investor education and market research programme examining discounted UK block trades. The initiative aims to change how Tanzanian participants understand and evaluate international share transactions by explaining pricing, institutional allocation methods, potential execution advantages and the regulatory and market risks involved.

Tanzania, 4th Aug 2026  Professor Vincent Mwakatobe is preparing to introduce an investor education and market research programme intended to broaden the way Tanzanian participants understand and approach international capital markets.

The programme will focus on the structure, potential benefits and risks of discounted UK block trades, while also explaining the distinction between primary-market allocations and transactions involving shares already listed on public exchanges.

Block trades generally involve a substantial number of listed shares being negotiated and executed outside the normal flow of smaller retail orders. In certain circumstances, a seller may agree to transfer a large holding below the prevailing market price to support efficient execution and reduce the potential market impact of placing multiple large orders.

According to the proposed educational framework, Professor Vincent intends to help eligible participants understand how such transactions are assessed and how institutional trading methods differ from ordinary retail share purchases. The objective is to enable participants to approach larger international-market opportunities with stronger knowledge of valuation, pricing and execution.

A discounted transaction price may offer a lower initial entry cost than the quoted market price at the time of execution. It may also provide greater price visibility when a substantial holding is transferred at an agreed price. However, a discount does not guarantee that the shares will retain their value or produce a positive return.

The programme will also introduce participants to the role of primary markets, where securities may be issued or allocated for the first time, and public markets, where listed securities are subsequently traded. This distinction is intended to help participants understand that primary-market allocations and public-market block trades involve different structures, eligibility requirements and regulatory considerations.

Through the programme, Professor Vincent seeks to encourage a more informed and institutionally minded approach to market participation in Tanzania. Rather than limiting education to ordinary retail trading, the initiative will examine how larger transactions, negotiated allocations and international diversification may be evaluated by qualified participants.

Equal attention will be given to risk. Discounted pricing may reflect transaction size, limited liquidity, a required holding period or changing expectations regarding the issuer and wider market. Participants must consider valuation, lock-up restrictions, foreign-exchange exposure, counterparty risk, disclosure standards and the possibility of capital loss.

With more than three decades of international capital-markets experience, Professor Vincent has worked across investment research, global asset allocation, institutional portfolio strategy, quantitative analysis and emerging-market development. His experience spans London, New York and East Africa.

Vincent Durnwick Capital Limited will provide research and educational content for the programme. Further details regarding eligibility, participation procedures and applicable compliance requirements will be communicated through formal channels.

Participation will remain subject to investor suitability, transaction availability and applicable legal and regulatory requirements. Discounted pricing does not eliminate investment risk, and no return or performance outcome is assured.
