Mario Draghi returned to his report on European competitiveness. Today, five months after its publication, it is incredibly late. Here are seven reasons.

Mario Draghi returned to his report on European competitiveness. On Tuesday, 18 February, speaking at the European Parliament, he reiterated the urgent reforms proposed in the document published five months ago. Indeed, with the new geopolitical and economic context, the critical issues highlighted are even more pressing.

For Draghi, the future of the European Union depends on its ability to act as a single economic entity, reduce internal fragmentation, and face global challenges with greater cohesion. However, the path will be complex and involve all key economic aspects: research, industry, trade and finance.

Here are the seven main factors that are endangering Europe’s future from an economic point of view.

1. Europe is practically absent in the fight for artificial intelligence

The first point Draghi raised concerns Artificial Intelligence (AI). The former ECB president pointed out that progress in this area has been impressive: AI algorithms have reached accuracy levels close to 90 per cent in scientific benchmarks, and the costs of training models have been drastically reduced.

Despite this, Europe is almost absent from global competition. Eight of the ten leading companies in the sector are from the US, and the other two are from China. Without targeted investments and a clear industrial strategy, Europe risks falling behind in one of the most strategic sectors for the economy’s future.

2. Energy prices are unsustainable

Energy prices in Europe remain two to three times higher than in the US, creating a substantial competitive disadvantage for European companies.

During the energy crisis in 2022, the price of electricity in Germany increased more than tenfold compared to normal levels. Although the situation has improved, the European industry’s dependency on external suppliers and the slow energy transition remainsignificantr problems.

3. Trade war against the US is imminent

Draghi identified US trade policy as a real threat to the European economy. Should Donald Trump return to the White House, new tariffs on European products are almost inevitable, putting the continent’s exports at risk.

Moreover, trade restrictions against China are already causing Chinese products to invade European markets, directly affecting local industries.

4. Europe is its own greatest enemy

Mario Draghi then spoke of stagnation, the European economy growing much more slowly than in other regions. One main reason is the absence of a truly integrated single market. According to the International Monetary Fund, internal barriers within the European Union amount to 45% tariffs for the manufacturing sector and 110% for services.

Start-ups and innovative companies often prefer to move to the US rather than grow in Europe due to the red tape and lack of access to capital. Draghi emphasised that the EU must simplify its regulations and promote a plan to harmonise national laws to enable companies to compete globally.

A significant example is GDPR, the European Data Protection Regulation, which, according to some estimates, has increased data management costs for European companies by 20%.

5. Capital markets suffer

Europeans, and mainly Italians, are among the world’s biggest savers. However, these savings are not invested in innovation but mainly in bank accounts, allowing credit institutions to generate profits without contributing to the technology sector’s growth.

Every year, around USD 300 billion remains in the coffers of lending institutions while start-ups struggle to raise capital to expand. Draghi believes that creating a more efficient capital market favouring innovative companies’ financing is necessary.

7. The legislative process is too slow

Draghi pointed out the European Union’s average time to adopt new regulations is 20 months. Such a delay is incompatible with the pace of technological innovation and economic change.

“If it takes us 20 months to legislate, we are already out of date before implementation,” said the former ECB president. This problem is particularly evident in the digital sectors, where the US and China can adapt their regulations quickly to foster the growth of emerging industries.

8. The decisive turning point

Finally, Draghi pointed out that the European Union continues to act as a coalition of states rather than as a single economic and political entity. An obvious example is the defence sector, where systems are not interoperable, and no common standards exist.

The lack of coordination between member states limits Europe’s ability to protect its interests and support the growth of local companies. “If we want to defend our borders, make our companies prosper and secure a future for European citizens, we have to start acting as one nation,” Draghi said.

Mario Draghi’s competitiveness report highlighted more current challenges than ever. If Europe wants to maintain a leading role in the global economy, it must tackle these problems head-on.

The alternative is clear: continue to lose ground to the US and China, with negative consequences for businesses, workers and the continent’s future.

In recent years, financial transparency regulations have expanded to include the cryptocurrency sector, aiming to prevent the illicit use of digital assets. A significant regulation in this area is the Travel Rule, which requires financial institutions and virtual asset service providers (VASPs) to share information about customers involved in transactions above a certain amount.

In line with its commitment to security and compliance, Young Platform has implemented major updates to comply with these regulations while maintaining user privacy. In this article, we will explore the requirements of the Travel Rule, its implications for the crypto sector, and the steps Young Platform has taken to remain compliant.

European Regulatory Framework: MiCA and TFR

The European Union (EU) has established a comprehensive regulatory framework for the cryptocurrency industry, which includes two key regulations: the Markets in Crypto-assets Regulation (MiCA) and the Transfer of Funds Regulation (TFR).

MiCA provides a uniform legal framework for digital assets, outlining clear rules for consumer protection, asset classification, licensing requirements, and market abuse prevention.

Conversely, the TFR implements Europe’s Financial Action Task Force (FATF) Travel Rule. It mandates sharing detailed information regarding crypto-asset transactions to combat money laundering and financing illicit activities.

What is the Travel Rule, and why is it important?

The Travel Rule requires CASPs to collect and transfer detailed information on the parties involved in transactions above a certain threshold. For Italy, the threshold is €0, which means that any crypto withdrawal or deposit must carry the additional information required by the Travel Rule. (The aim is to increase the transparency and traceability of transactions, making it more difficult for criminals to hide behind anonymity.

The TFR establishes specific requirements to ensure compliance, including:

• Verification of sender and receiver information.
• The adoption of appropriate measures for transactions to self-hosted wallets.
• The application of guidelines issued by the European Banking Authority (EBA).

What is the Travel Rule, and why is it important?

The Travel Rule requires Crypto Asset Service Providers (CASPs) to collect and transfer detailed information about the parties involved in transactions that exceed a certain threshold. In Italy, this threshold is set at €0, meaning that any crypto withdrawal or deposit must include the additional information mandated by the Travel Rule. The primary goal of this rule is to enhance the transparency and traceability of transactions, making it more challenging for criminals to operate anonymously.

The Travel Rule establishes specific requirements to ensure compliance, which include:

• Verify information for both the sender and the receiver.
• Implementation of appropriate safeguards for transactions to self-hosted wallets.
• Adherence to guidelines issued by the European Banking Authority (EBA).

Young Platform’s Adjustments to the Travel Rule

To comply with the Travel Rule and EBA guidelines, Young Platform has introduced new procedures for incoming and outgoing cryptocurrency transactions, specifically for deposits and withdrawals. Here are the main changes implemented.

Verification of Self-Hosted Wallets  

When users deposit or withdraw cryptocurrencies to a personal wallet, they may be required to confirm ownership of that wallet. This verification can be completed through Self-Certification, which involves a quick verification process using two-factor authentication (2FA) or other specific methods outlined directly on the platform during the transaction.

Transactions Between Crypto Asset Service Providers (CASPs)  

Young Platform requires users to specify the counterparty involved in the transaction for transfers to other crypto service providers.

Security and Data Protection  

Young Platform has collaborated with technology partners to adopt advanced solutions, including the TRUST (Travel Rule Universal Solution Technology) system. This system enables the secure and fully encrypted exchange of critical information, ensuring regulatory compliance while maintaining user privacy.

Requirements for Self-Hosted Wallet Transactions  

For transactions involving self-hosted wallets, Young Platform evaluates the risk associated with each transaction. It requires specific verifications, such as two-factor authentication or other methods communicated during the transaction process, following the provisions of the Travel Rule.

What changes for Young Platform users?

European Young Platform users must adapt to new crypto transaction procedures. Here’s a summary of the changes:

• Deposits and Withdrawals: Users will be required to verify the source of their funds. For private wallets, a one-time verification will be necessary.
• Transactions Between CASPs: Users may need to provide information about the counterparty involved in the transaction.

For more details, please refer to the updated Cryptocurrency Withdrawal and Cryptocurrency Deposit guides.

Why the Travel Rule is a step forward for the crypto sector

The Travel Rule marks a significant advancement for the crypto industry. While it may initially appear to be an extra burden for users, this regulation is crucial in legitimising the global cryptocurrency industry. Enhancing transparency and security, the Travel Rule fosters a more trustworthy environment for individual users and institutional investors.

Young Platform: compliance and innovation for users

Young Platform is dedicated to offering a secure and compliant platform while prioritising user experience. By collaborating with leading partners like TRUST and utilising advanced technologies, the company guarantees that users can operate in a trusted and regulated environment. For more information on the Travel Rule and the adjustments made by Young Platform, please visit our Help Centre,Terms & Conditions, or Privacy Policy.

How to exploit Gems before 31 January

If you have accumulated Gems, now is the perfect time to use them! You have until January 30, 2025, to take advantage of the benefits. Here’s how:

• Redeem completed Quests: Log into the app and redeem all available Gems.
• Spend in the Shop: Use your Gems to purchase fee discounts and save on trading costs.

Why join a Club before February 4?

Lock in a 100% fee discount forever!

If you’re considering switching to Club Platinum or signing up, now is the ideal time to act! Starting January 4, Club Platinum will reduce the fee discount from 100% to 90%. However, anyone who signs up by February 3 will retain the benefit of a 100% fee discount forever, just like current Club Platinum members.

Please note: The discount remains valid as long as you continue to be a Platinum Club member.

Club price changes

Starting February 4, 2025, a new system for calculating club membership costs will be implemented based on the price of the YNG token. 

If you join a club before February 4, you will lock in the current amount of YNG tokens required for membership. For instance, at today’s price of €0.15 per YNG, you could join Club Silver by using 5,000 YNG tokens, which is approximately €750. However, after the new pricing structure is introduced, you would need 8,000 YNG tokens to join Club Silver at the same price of €0.15 per token, resulting in a cost of €1,200. 

For more details, read the in-depth article.

Prepare your 2025 on Young Platform!

With recurring purchases for staking, you can automate your crypto accumulation journey, simplify asset management, and maximise long-term rewards.

Let’s face it: no one likes sitting idle while the market behaves like a hydra, growing new heads faster than you can keep up. The bull market, seductive yet dangerous like a siren’s song, also offers huge opportunities for those who stay grounded and play smart.

In these times, recurring purchases combined with staking are like the ultimate Goku-Vegeta fusion: you keep accumulating crypto while reducing risk through dollar-cost averaging and earning rewards on what you already hold. And those extra staking rewards? That’s the cherry on top. You can sell them when the market peaks or keep them because you believe in the project more than in your trading instincts.

Then there’s the bear market – the stuff of nightmares for many. It’s a dull, slow, and almost soporific time when most people give up. But that’s when the best opportunities arise. Lower prices, better deals – if you have the patience. While the market drags along, staking works quietly in the background, creating a solid foundation of tokens that will give you an edge when the market roars back to life.

Quick refresher: market cycles

For anyone new here, let’s cover the basics: markets are cyclical and move through four main phases – accumulation, uptrend, distribution, and downtrend. Simple, right?

The accumulation phase comes after the downtrend once prices stabilise. But it may feel counterintuitive to keep accumulating when the market is already rising. However, that’s exactly when a well-thought-out strategy like recurring purchases comes into play.

During an uptrend, many investors succumb to FOMO (fear of missing out), buying impulsively at market peaks. By sticking to a disciplined recurring purchase plan, you’re effectively smoothing out the highs and lows, ending up with a reasonable average price over time.

Staking in the accumulation phase

Once the market has bottomed out and prices are stable, recurring purchases combined with staking become your best allies. This strategy helps you build strong foundations for the market’s next phases, turning time into your greatest asset.

Recurring altcoin purchases in a bull market

Here’s something that often gets overlooked: if Bitcoin is the undisputed king and Ethereum the black panther of the crypto jungle, altcoins are more elusive prey.

During a bear market, altcoins tend to stay in the shadows. Why? Because it’s hard to tell which ones will survive – unless they’ve already proven themselves resilient during previous downturns.

The altcoin market is a mixed bag. Some projects are rock-solid, built for long-term success, while others are just seasonal cryptos – fleeting stars that shine brightly during bull runs but fade when the market cools.

This is why, in a bull market, it’s critical to distinguish between altcoins with real potential and those merely riding the hype wave. Long-term success comes down to quality.

Here’s the key takeaway: historical solid altcoins often move in sync with Ethereum during uptrends, making them easier to spot. Recurring purchases give you an edge by allowing you to accumulate these promising assets without relying on risky, short-term trades. When combined with staking (available for select altcoins), this strategy lets you maximise rewards while the market is on the rise. Just be sure to plan your exit strategy before the market peaks.

How does it work?

It’s easier than you think.

1. Choose your preferred frequency – daily, weekly, or monthly.
2. Set the amount you want to put in staking.

From there, your funds will automatically be converted from euros into cryptocurrency and staked at your chosen frequency. Each operation creates a new stake. Mission accomplished. Simple, right?

Quick note: Remember that the crypto market is volatile, so the number of tokens purchased will vary with each recurring purchase, depending on the asset’s price at the time of execution.

Additional benefits

• Diversification: Spread your funds across multiple cryptocurrencies to reduce risk and increase your chances of success.
• Discipline made easy: If you struggle with consistency or get swayed by market emotions, recurring purchases provide a hands-off approach that keeps you on track.

At the end of the day, it all comes down to one simple truth: markets are cyclical, but success is for those who stick it out – whether it’s a frenzied rally or a period of stillness. Stay in the game, plan ahead, and don’t get dazzled by short-term fireworks.

The bull market is here, and it might be time to prepare for the much-anticipated altseason. How? With a 50% discount on altcoin trading fees!

This November, the crypto market has witnessed an explosion of bullish momentum, igniting euphoria among traders and investors. However, this growth has primarily benefited Bitcoin, with a few exceptions such as Ripple (XRP) and Stellar (XLM). Many crypto enthusiasts, captivated by Bitcoin’s recent rally, are asking one pressing question: “When will the altseason begin?”

While no one can predict the market with certainty, we can offer some guidance on key metrics to monitor and detect the start of the altseason. We’re offering a 50% discount on altcoin trading fees to help you get ahead. Read on for details!

Could Altseason be just around the corner?

To predict the altseason, it’s essential to monitor two key indicators: Bitcoin Dominance and the ETH/BTC ratio.

• Bitcoin Dominance
  This metric compares Bitcoin’s market capitalisation to the entire cryptocurrency market, expressed as a percentage. After climbing steadily throughout 2023, Bitcoin Dominance has plateaued in recent weeks and is now beginning to decline. Since 22 November, Bitcoin Dominance has dropped from 61.3% to 58%, suggesting that Bitcoin’s influence in the crypto market is diminishing.
  
• ETH/BTC Ratio
  The ETH/BTC chart shows Ethereum’s relative strength to Bitcoin. This ratio has been in a downtrend since 2021 but recently found support around 0.031 BTC, halting its decline. Monitoring Ethereum’s relative strength is crucial, as ETH has historically led the alt season, often achieving strong performance before smaller-cap altcoins follow suit. Currently, the ETH/BTC ratio is at 0.037 BTC, marking a 15% increase since 22 November.
  

Altcoin Friday: 50% off altcoin trading fees

Now that you know what to watch to spot the start of the altseason, it’s time to talk about Altcoin Friday. To celebrate the crypto market’s bullish momentum and Black Friday, we’re offering a 50% discount on all altcoin-Euro trading pairs.

This promotion runs until Sunday, 1 December, at 11:59 PM, and applies to orders with a minimum value of €100.

Take advantage of the Discount!

For members of the Young Platform Clubs, this discount is stackable with your existing Club discount. For example, if you’re part of the Bronze Club with a 30% discount, it will be applied first, followed by the additional 50% from the Altcoin Friday promotion.

Note: This offer applies exclusively to Altcoin-Euro trading pairs on the Young Platform app (not Young Platform Pro) and does not include trading fees for altcoin-stablecoin pairs, such as ETH-USDT.
