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 a report by South Korea's SBS News, the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) of South Korea has adjusted the amendment to the Enforcement Decree of the Specific Financial Information Act, removing the mandatory reporting obligation for virtual asset transfers exceeding 10 million won, and instead allowing exchanges to manage risks independently. The original proposal required domestic operators to report to the FIU when transferring more than 10 million won abroad, regardless of the level of risk. After adopting industry opinions, the FIU decided to cancel the mandatory reporting and instead require companies to establish internal risk management systems.Other adjustments include: the scope of the Travel Rule will be expanded from amounts over 1 million won to all amounts; the strengthened customer verification for high-risk suspicious transactions will change from mandatory to only being executed when the company assesses the risk to be particularly high; small businesses will be given a one-year grace period for the reporting condition of a debt ratio not exceeding 200%; the requirement for anti-money laundering computer equipment to be located domestically will allow the use of overseas cloud services. The amendment will take effect on August 20 after review by the Legal Affairs Office.

According to Cointelegraph, Coinbase and Better Home & Finance announced a plan to launch a cryptocurrency-backed mortgage program in the summer of 2026, allowing eligible borrowers to use Bitcoin (BTC) or USDC as collateral to fund down payments for Fannie Mae-backed mortgages. This move comes after the U.S. FHFA instructed Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to consider cryptocurrency assets in mortgage risk assessments starting June 2025, without the need to convert them into fiat currency.Other lending institutions, such as Newrez, have already followed suit with similar initiatives. However, some U.S. senators have expressed concerns that the price volatility of cryptocurrency assets could threaten the stability of the housing market. Republican Senator Cynthia Lummis has proposed the "21st Century Mortgage Act," aiming to solidify the aforementioned policy in legislative form.

On May 29, 2026, Taylor Hornby discovered a critical forgery vulnerability in the Zcash Orchard funding pool. Taylor Hornby reported the vulnerability to the Zcash Open Development Lab, and all parties collaborated to complete the fix on June 2. This vulnerability could be exploited to secretly create an unlimited number of forged ZEC within Zcash Orchard. Due to the privacy features of Orchard, it is impossible to cryptographically prove whether the vulnerability was exploited before the fix was deployed. The vulnerability had existed since the activation of Orchard in May 2022, until an emergency fix was deployed on June 1, 2026.With the assistance of AI tools, Taylor Hornby wrote a complete exploit and generated unlimited and undetectable forged ZEC in a local testing environment. Currently, Shielded Labs is collaborating with other Zcash developers to explore network upgrade proposals that would allow anyone to verify the integrity of Zcash's supply.

Bit Digital, a Nasdaq-listed company, CEO Sam Tabar posted on X that he has bought more ETH.Sam Tabar explained, "Many people, after seeing ETH's price performance over the past two years, concluded that it is finished. But I believe they have identified the wrong catalyst. The repricing of ETH should never have been based on retail narratives. For an asset supported by such a vast infrastructure, that narrative is inherently too fragile. The real catalyst is institutional demand. And the rhythm of institutional demand never operates according to the emotions on social media. It only occurs when conditions are ripe, such as when the compliance framework is ready, the custody system is established, and the regulatory environment is stable enough for CFOs to sign off. That moment is actually closer than what the market price reflects."He added, "I hold ETH because I have a fiduciary obligation to make smart capital allocation decisions. And based on the price at which I bought, ETH meets that standard."

Analysis suggests that the rise in U.S. Treasury yields and bond yields in major global economies is weakening the market's willingness to allocate to high-risk, non-yielding assets like Bitcoin.

Tiger Research's Research Director Ryan Yoon stated that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is preparing to launch an "innovation exemption" framework that allows third parties to tokenize listed stocks without the issuer's approval.Ryan Yoon warned that this move could cause two major structural shocks to traditional exchanges: first, liquidity fragmentation, as funds will disperse from centralized exchanges to multiple blockchain platforms; second, revenue fragmentation, as trading fees and intermediary income may flow to overseas or competing platforms, threatening the competitiveness of U.S. finance.He believes that traditional exchanges are like monopolistic superstores, while tokenized stocks are akin to allowing anyone to set up a street stall, which will significantly change the concentration of capital markets. The SEC is advancing this framework at this time to keep global financial income within the domestic regulatory scope.
