According to Jin Shi reports, Glenmede's Head of Investment Strategy and Research, Jason Pride, stated that the Federal Reserve's considerations remain unchanged, and the constraints for interest rate cuts are still inflation rather than employment.Although the labor market has not accelerated, its resilience is higher than what the unadjusted data suggests, which reduces the urgency for the Federal Reserve to take action regarding employment. Investors should expect the Federal Reserve to maintain interest rates at the next meeting and pay attention to whether energy relief measures after the ceasefire begin to lower the overall inflation rate.

In the past week, global crypto ETFs recorded net outflows for two consecutive weeks, with a cumulative outflow of $2.54 billion. Against the backdrop of adjustments in macro interest rate expectations, institutional risk appetite has contracted, but traditional financial assets such as stocks still maintain strong attractiveness.Data shows that the Gate TradFi Perp market exhibits significant asset rotation characteristics, with metals remaining the main trading sector, and daily trading volume once approaching $550 million to $600 million; meanwhile, the trading volume share of stock contracts continues to rise, indicating that the market's demand for allocation in U.S. stock-related assets is increasing. In the context of continued activity in AI tech stocks and U.S. stock indices nearing historical highs, TradFi Perp is gradually evolving from a single gold trading market to a dual-core structure of "gold + U.S. stocks."As institutional funds accelerate their allocation to stocks, ETFs, and other TradFi assets, Gate continues to promote the integration of TradFi assets and the construction of a multi-asset trading ecosystem, continuously strengthening its capability to provide institutional-level global asset allocation services, offering professional investors a more efficient one-stop cross-market trading solution.

According to IOL, the High Court of Gauteng Province in South Africa ruled that Bitcoin falls under "capital" and "currency" within the South African foreign exchange control system, and ordered the confiscation of nearly 6 million rand worth of Bitcoin assets. The court determined that a trader transferred nearly 1,680 Bitcoins to a wallet accessible only through an overseas registered cryptocurrency exchange via their Luno account between January 2018 and March 2020, which amounted to exporting capital abroad without approval from the Treasury, violating foreign exchange control regulations.Meanwhile, the South African Treasury released a draft consultation on capital flow management for 2026 last month, aimed at modernizing the management of cross-border capital flows by reducing pre-approval for transactions, strengthening reporting, and monitoring high-impact, high-risk cross-border transactions.

Public data shows that since the launch of evoevo, the AI economy project NeoSoul's self-evolving Agent network has accumulated a Token consumption of over 15 billion, with the number of Agents in the network reaching over 200,000 and the number of Agent activities exceeding 1.5 million.The above data reflects to some extent that market attention to AI Agent applications that operate continuously is on the rise. Compared to single-question-and-answer tools, Agents that can operate long-term, record behaviors, and adjust based on feedback are becoming an important direction for the development of AI applications.NeoSoul's AI Agents primarily make judgments and interact around real-world issues, with related activities being recorded on-chain for observing and training their long-term performance.In the future, NeoSoul will continue to build around the real-world operation and behavior recording of Agents, further exploring the direction of the AI Economy.NeoSoul Co-founder Kaelan stated, "The key to the AI Economy is not just how many Agents are created, but whether these Agents can continuously interact in real environments. They need to form judgments, receive feedback, leave records, and accumulate long-term capabilities in the process."

Solana's official announcement "Building Fully On-Chain Perpetual Contracts on Solana" aims to vigorously promote the ecological construction of fully on-chain perpetual contracts (Perps) in the future, with the goal of making Solana the world's strongest on-chain financial derivatives infrastructure. Currently, the trading volume of crypto derivatives is mainly concentrated on centralized trading platforms or hybrid models that rely on off-chain matching engines, which Solana believes is a transitional phase. It hopes to make a truly fully on-chain derivatives market a reality through the characteristics of high-performance blockchain—where all processes such as order submission, price updates, matching, and clearing are completed on-chain, while maintaining institutional-level speed and low costs.The Solana Foundation will provide funding, technical support, and resource allocation, focusing on supporting projects that meet the following criteria: fully on-chain execution, price discovery based on real bilateral liquidity (rather than purely pool pricing), Solana priority with revenue flowing back on-chain, teams with derivatives experience, and core code being open source. It also welcomes the co-construction of surrounding infrastructure such as front ends, aggregators, vaults, and market-making tools.

The Fuzhou City Cangshan District People's Procuratorate disclosed that a man was sentenced to 12 years and 7 months in prison for theft after stealing 4 Bitcoins from others and illegally profiting about 900,000 yuan, with a fine of 300,000 yuan. The second instance upheld the original verdict.The case shows that at the end of 2020, Wang entrusted Lin to assist in cashing out the Bitcoins he held. During the process of accessing Wang's Bitcoin wallet hard drive and computer, Lin stole the wallet's "private key" and related data, transferring 4 Bitcoins into his own name, and subsequently sold them for profit. In 2024, after Wang discovered abnormal asset activity, he reported it to the police, and Lin was subsequently arrested.The procuratorial authority stated that although current regulations clearly indicate that virtual currencies do not have the status of legal tender, Bitcoins possess value, manageability, and transferability, meeting the general characteristics of "property" in criminal law, and are subject to property crime. Relevant infringement actions will also be held criminally accountable.

According to CoinDesk, Figure Technology Solutions CEO Mike Cagney stated that the company is trying to leverage blockchain to reconstruct the traditional credit market infrastructure and deeply integrate real-world assets (RWA), securitization, and DeFi.Data shows that Figure's loan issuance in March this year exceeded $1 billion for the first time in a single month, with a total lending volume of $2.9 billion in the first quarter, which annualizes to about $12 billion. Cagney stated that the company's goal is to reduce intermediaries in the securitization, lending, and stock lending markets through on-chain processes, lowering costs and enhancing liquidity.Currently, Figure has launched the yield-bearing stablecoin YLDS and has launched on-chain credit vault products on networks like Solana, allowing users to invest in tokenized credit assets or use them as collateral for borrowing. The company also plans to expand into the Ethereum ecosystem and explore stock tokenization and on-chain securities lending.Cagney believes that the true value of blockchain lies not in "putting everything on-chain," but in reconstructing the financial abstraction layer. "Financial assets such as loans, securities, and equity are naturally suited for on-chain processes, and the entire financial infrastructure may be rewritten as a result."

Sky proposes a comprehensive reform of the treasury revenue distribution mechanism. Founder Rune Christensen stated that with Genesis Capital's transition to Grove, Sky has officially ended the genesis capitalization phase, and the previous irregular capital deployment determined by governance has come to an end.The proposal simplifies the treasury management function (TMF) from a five-step conditional waterfall structure to a four-step fixed allocation framework, covering security and maintenance, overall backup capital, smart burn engine, and USDS staking rewards, while eliminating multiple legacy mechanisms. This move comes as Sky is rapidly expanding, with the supply of USDS rising to approximately $11.6 billion, making it the third-largest stablecoin. Previously, the Sky community authorized the deployment of up to $2.5 billion through the stablecoin incubator Obex, and launched the native USDS on Avalanche in April.
