    The US Securities and Exchange Commission has returned the S-1 form to the potential Ethereum ETF issuer with some comments, asking them to address the issues and resubmit. Sources say that at least one more round of review is needed before these measures can take effect. The issuer has reportedly been asked to address these comments and resubmit before July 8th.

  • Coinbase Chief Legal Officer: US SEC blocks Coinbase’s request to disclose Gary Gensler’s communication documents

    Paul Grewal.eth, the Chief Legal Officer of Coinbase, wrote on the X platform that the issues of Chevron and Binance's secondary sales have been clarified, but in Coinbase's lawsuit, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has prevented Coinbase from requesting the disclosure of Gary Gensler's communication documents. In March 2021, Gary Gensler told the U.S. Congress that the SEC lacked regulatory authority over digital asset exchanges, confirming the long-held belief among market participants that digital asset trading on these exchanges is not within the jurisdiction of securities law. Coinbase has requested that Gary Gensler provide documents related to these communications because they are related to how the SEC's enforcement actions violate the due process requirements of the Constitution, but the SEC and Gary Gensler are trying to prevent the disclosure of these documents.

  • Wormhole: A new contract “SolanaWorldIDProgram” will be developed to support the expansion of World ID to the Solana network

    Worldcoin has announced that it has expanded its World ID to the Solana network through Wormhole. The main goal of this integration is to enable protocols on Solana to verify user World IDs that have already been authenticated on Ethereum. According to Wormhole, a new smart contract called SolanaWorldIDProgram will be developed on Solana, which will be responsible for verifying and storing the World ID state root and verifying inclusion proofs. SolanaWorldIDProgram and the Wormhole State Bridge Service from Ethereum to Solana provide a powerful and scalable cross-chain identity verification solution.

  • Supreme Court: "A Token" network platform collected more than 9 million virtual currencies such as Bitcoin, Tether, and EOS from members

    The Supreme People's Court and the State Administration for Market Regulation jointly issued five typical cases of punishing pyramid schemes on the Internet in accordance with the law. Some of them falsely promised high returns by investing in "virtual currencies". The defendants, including Chen, used blockchain as a gimmick to plan the establishment of the "Token" network platform. According to statistics, the platform has registered more than 2.6 million member accounts, with a hierarchy of 3,293 levels, and collected more than 9 million virtual currencies such as Bitcoin, Tether, and EOS. The people's court sentenced the organizers and leaders of cross-border network pyramid schemes according to their positions and roles in the entire criminal chain, and confiscated virtual currencies such as Bitcoin involved in the case in accordance with the law. Relevant officials of the Supreme People's Court stated that in the next step, the people's court will work with market supervision departments and other units to strictly punish illegal pyramid schemes on the Internet in accordance with the law.

It is currently unclear whether the Immutable migration will affect Saga's plans, and the project representatives have not commented on the issue.

  • Pixelverse will launch PIXFI tokens on TON with a total supply of 5 billion

    After completing a $5.5 million financing in mid-June, Pixelverse, a Telegram-based game that combines clicking and fighting, announced the launch of the PIXFI token on TON, with a total supply of 5 billion tokens. According to official documents, PIXFI tokens will be used for transactions, production, and game battles in the Pixelverse ecosystem. In the announcement, Pixelverse stated that TON and Telegram are paving the way for the mass adoption of cryptocurrencies, and the token will adopt a deflationary economic model, with the mechanism gradually reducing token supply over time to help maintain its value. In addition, PIXFI will also become the main token for trading on Pixelchain, serving as the gas token for the game, as well as integrating with the Pixelverse SDK to support development and expansion within the game.

  • Hong Kong investment in virtual assets will not be subject to capital gains tax

    Hong Kong investors in virtual assets will not be subject to asset value-added tax, which is a very attractive point for global investors. For example, in Japan and Australia, although they have expanded the virtual asset market earlier than Hong Kong, they still need to pay asset value-added tax, which will be included in the comprehensive tax rate calculation. The comprehensive tax rates in Japan and Australia can be as high as 50% and 40% respectively. For investors, investment returns are of course the most important consideration, and Hong Kong's low tax system will attract more international investors to settle in Hong Kong.

  • OSL: In the past year, a large number of virtual asset companies have returned to Hong Kong from Singapore

    Hu Zhenbang, CFO of OSL Group, stated that the 2023 declaration by the Special Administrative Region government regarding virtual assets has indeed increased industry confidence. For a period of time, some virtual asset-related companies had moved from Hong Kong to Singapore for development, but in the past year, a large number of these companies have returned to Hong Kong, indicating greater confidence in the future development of Hong Kong's virtual asset market. With the 27th anniversary of Hong Kong's return to China approaching, the SAR government has successively introduced a series of regulations, such as licensed platform supervision, which greatly enhances the confidence of global investors in Hong Kong's virtual asset market. Therefore, many talents and technology enterprises have returned to Hong Kong for development, and the industry generally believes that Hong Kong's advantages in developing the virtual asset market are becoming more and more apparent.
