Spark: The delisting of rsETH assets in January had caused strong dissatisfaction among ETH leveraged users, but it has now been proven to be a prudent strategy

The head of the Spark Protocol strategy, monetsupply.eth, posted on platform X stating that in January of this year, low-usage assets like rsETH were removed and collateral and functionality were continuously tightened. This move sparked strong dissatisfaction among "ETH leveraged" users at the time.Additionally, Spark has long set a high upper limit on interest rates in the ETH lending market, transferring some business and revenue to Aave over the past year (where its ETH borrowing rate once dropped to 10% or below). However, in the current market crisis environment, this strategy has proven to be more prudent. Currently, SparkLend still maintains sufficient ETH withdrawal liquidity, while Aave has experienced liquidity tightness and even "lock-up" situations in the Ethereum mainnet and multi-chain markets like Arbitrum and Base.monetsupply.eth further warned that since ETH is the core collateral asset, when market utilization reaches 100%, collateral liquidation will not be able to execute normally. The depletion of liquidity not only affects the depositor experience but may also pose systemic risks. In the current situation of insufficient liquidity in Aave, a 15%-20% drop in ETH prices could lead to significant bad debt accumulation (in addition to the potential impact of the rsETH incident).

The U.S. SEC releases a statement providing key guidance: some cryptocurrency trading front-ends do not need to register as brokers

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Division of Trading and Markets issued a staff statement providing guidance on whether certain user interfaces used to generate trading instructions for crypto asset securities (Covered User Interface) need to be registered as broker-dealers.The statement noted that under specific conditions, providers of such interfaces may not need to register as broker-dealers under Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act. These conditions include: not actively soliciting specific trades, not providing investment advice, not controlling or executing trades, generating trading instructions solely based on objective parameters, and fully disclosing the fee structure, potential conflicts of interest, and associated risks to users.The SEC emphasized that such interfaces typically exist in the form of websites, browser plugins, or wallet applications, used to convert trading parameters set by users into on-chain executable instructions, while also providing market data such as prices, paths, and fees.Additionally, the statement clarified that such exemptions do not apply to activities involving trade matching, fund custody, order routing, or providing investment advice. The relevant guidance is a temporary opinion and will automatically expire in 2026 if no further action is taken. The SEC stated that this move aims to provide a clearer regulatory framework for activities related to crypto asset securities and continues to seek market feedback.
