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

Zirix Unveils Goa Web3 Leadership Summit & Phase 2 Contributor Sprint
Zirix Protocol, an autonomous decentralized yield engine deployed on the BNB Smart Chain, has announced its inaugural Web3 Decentralized Leadership Summit & Executive Retreat in Goa, India (3 Days / 2 Nights), alongside an active Phase 2 Ecosystem Expansion Sprint running from September 21 through October 15, 2026.Engineered to resolve systemic DeFi vulnerabilities—such as inflationary token dumping, hidden administrator keys, and sudden liquidity drains—Zirix operates under an immutable smart contract with permanently renounced ownership (0x000…), zero developer token reserves, 100% of PancakeSwap LP tokens burned to the null address, a 5-year direct buy restriction, and a 6% net withdrawal deflationary loop.The press release establishes two performance-based qualification pathways for regional community leaders and liquidity providers to earn an all-inclusive seat at the Goa Summit:Direct Liquidity Pathway: Introduce 3 new direct sponsors alongside a new personal staking tranche of at least $1,500 USDT during the sprint.Multi-Tier Balancing Pathway: Cultivate at least 1 verified summit achiever across each of three independent referral lines (Legs A, B, and C), reinforcing the protocol’s mathematical 40/30/30 volume-balancing algorithm.The Goa retreat serves as a strategic forum for regional node directors across South Asia, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America to preview upcoming Phase 3 AI yield routing tools and coordinate localized ambassador hubs.
PANAJI, GOA / DUBAI, UAE — September 25, 2026 — Zirix Protocol, an autonomous, code-enforced decentralized yield engine deployed on the BNB Smart Chain (BSC), today announced its inaugural Web3 Decentralized Leadership Summit & Executive Retreat, to be hosted in the coastal innovation corridor of Goa, India. Concurrently, the protocol has opened an intensive three-week Ecosystem Expansion Incentive Sprint, running from September 21 through October 15, 2026, establishing verified contributor benchmarks for regional node builders and liquidity providers.

The initiative marks the protocol’s transition into Phase 2 of its development roadmap, following the completion of its foundational Genesis architecture. Engineered to dismantle the speculative vulnerabilities that have historically plagued decentralized finance (DeFi), Zirix operates under a mathematically constrained framework: a fixed maximum supply of 2,500,000 ZX tokens, zero founder or developer allocations, and an immutable smart contract whose ownership was permanently renounced to the null address (0x000…000) upon mainnet verification.
Confronting DeFi’s Structural Flaws Through Unalterable Code
Over the past several market cycles, decentralized yield platforms have repeatedly collapsed under the weight of hyper-inflationary token minting, hidden administrator keys, and sudden liquidity withdrawals. Zirix eliminates these failure points through structural mechanisms hard-coded into its deployed contracts:
Permanent Liquidity Locking: During protocol interactions, the smart contract automatically pairs USDT into PancakeSwap ZX/USDT liquidity pools and routes 100% of the resulting LP tokens directly to the burn address. Liquidity cannot be withdrawn by any developer or coalition.
Dual-Deflationary Contraction Loop: Every reward claim executes an automated 5% contract burn alongside a 1% token transfer tax. As a result, 6% of gross claimed volume is permanently removed from circulating supply with every payout.
Five-Year Anti-Speculation Barrier: Direct market buys from the open DEX pair are restricted for 1,825 days, mandating that all capital entering the ecosystem flows through verified protocol deposit tranches, converting speculative spikes into long-term locked liquidity.
“Look at what happened across the yield sector over the last two years—investors are completely exhausted by founder multisigs, stealth mints, and promises that disappear overnight,” stated a spokesperson from the Zirix Core Protocol Architecture Team. “Zirix wasn’t designed to be managed; it was designed to run autonomously. The smart contracts are renounced, our developer reserve is zero, and the LP tokens are burned. There is literally no back door. That level of mathematical certainty is why our community is mobilizing for the Goa summit—because the code treats everyone equally.”
The Goa Executive Leadership Summit
The upcoming 3-Day / 2-Night strategic executive retreat in Goa serves as a physical collaborative forum for the protocol’s most active decentralized contributors. Convening in late 2026, the summit will assemble regional node operators, liquidity strategists, and international ambassadors representing emerging crypto corridors across South Asia, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America.
The agenda prioritizes protocol scalability, including:
Technical previews of upcoming Phase 3 decentralized applications, including AI-assisted yield routing engines.
The operationalization of localized ambassador hubs and educational academies.
Masterclasses on organizational liquidity balancing utilizing the protocol’s code-governed 40/30/30 multi-tier override algorithms.
Contributor Qualification FrameworkActive Sprint Window: September 21, 2026 – October 15, 2026
To ensure that summit attendance is distributed transparently to verified ecosystem contributors, Zirix has outlined two distinct qualification pathways during the active sprint window:
ZIRIX SUMMIT CONTRIBUTOR CRITERIA
Pathway 1: Direct Liquidity Contributor Pathway
Tailored for direct capital participants. Requires the introduction of three (3) new direct protocol sponsors alongside a new individual staking tranche of at least $1,500 USDT executed within the campaign dates.
Pathway 2: Multi-Tier Node Balancing Pathway
Tailored for organizational builders who leverage Zirix’s 25-level override engine. Qualification is achieved by fostering leadership depth—specifically by developing at least one verified summit achiever across each of three independent referral lines (Legs A, B, and C), reinforcing the protocol’s balanced 40/30/30 volume distribution model.
“In decentralized networks, true stability doesn’t come from venture capital—it comes from committed, distributed community builders,” said Vikram Malhotra, Global Ecosystem Expansion Director for Zirix. “Why should an experienced community leader spend months building an organization if an administrator can change the comp plan midway? On Zirix, the 25 levels of overrides and monthly payroll ranks are written permanently into bytecode. The Goa Summit is our way of sitting down face-to-face with the leaders who are proving that decentralized, code-enforced wealth generation works.”

STARTRADER Raises Lloyd’s of London Client Fund Insurance to USD 30 Million in Aggregate
Port Louis, Mauritius, September 29th, 2026, FinanceWire
The aggregate cover increases thirtyfold from USD 1 million, applies to available balances and open positions in the event of insolvency, and remains free to clients.
Startrader Financial Markets Limited (Mauritius) has raised the aggregate limit of its client fund insurance, underwritten by Arch and other Lloyd’s of London syndicates, from USD 1 million to USD 30 million, effective October 1, 2026. The policy covers available balances and collateral supporting open positions, responding above a per-client retention where insolvency coincides with covered misconduct.
Client fund protection increasingly shapes broker choice. Because insolvency is remote, cover size often goes unexamined until it matters, making early action a governance decision, not a marketing one.
The policy covers only eligible clients of this entity, not other STARTRADER entities, and complements its segregation of client funds from company assets.
“Insurance is not something clients think about on a good day. It matters on the worst one, and a ceiling that only looks adequate until it is tested is not much of a ceiling.” – Peter Karsten, CEO, STARTRADER.
The higher limit will apply automatically from October 1, 2026, with no action required. Claims must be submitted to the appointed insolvency practitioner, with an Investor Compensation Claim Form, within 12 months of the insolvency event.
About STARTRADER
STARTRADER is a global multi-asset broker empowering retail and institutional partners to access global markets through a range of platforms, including MetaTrader, STARTRADER APP, and STAR Copy. Regulated in five jurisdictions (CMA, ASIC, FSCA, FSA, and FSC), STARTRADER combines strong governance with a client-first approach, serving both retail clients and partners with a commitment to transparency, reliability, and long-term growth.
Disclaimer: This announcement is for information only and is not investment advice or tailored to your circumstances. Forward-looking statements cannot be guaranteed. The insurance is an excess-of-loss policy subject to its full terms, conditions and exclusions, which prevail in any conflict. It covers only loss of client cash or securities caused by covered misconduct following an insolvency event, not trading losses. Payments may be less than a client’s loss and depend on the insolvency practitioner’s determinations and the firm’s policy compliance. Clients are beneficiaries of a discretionary trust with no direct claim against the insurer. CFDs are high risk and may not suit all investors. Not intended for distribution where contrary to local law or regulation.
