Maritime Analysis Firm: Kharg Island Resumes Crude Oil Loading Operations, Iran Actively Restoring Crude Export Capacity

the UK-based maritime analysis firm Windward released a report on the 4th, stating that satellite images show Iran's key oil export hub, Kharg Island, has resumed loading operations.The report stated that satellite images obtained on June 2nd show a very large crude carrier (VLCC) anchored near the western terminal of Kharg Island. This is the first confirmed vessel to berth at the facility since it was shut down in early May due to a suspected oil leak. On June 3rd, the VLCC at the western berth and a Panamax tanker at the eastern T-shaped jetty were conducting loading operations simultaneously. By the 4th, the VLCC had completed loading and departed, while the Panamax tanker remained at the dock. Windward stated that the simultaneous resumption of services at both terminals indicates that Iran is actively restoring its crude oil export capacity.The report also noted that small fast boats of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) remain highly active throughout the Strait of Hormuz. This sustained high level of activity indicates that the IRGC maintains a high state of readiness to support Iran-related vessels in the strait. (Xinhua News Agency)

Coinbase Partners with Better to Launch Crypto-Backed Mortgages, Allowing BTC and USDC for Down Payments This Summer

According to Cointelegraph, Coinbase and Better Home & Finance announced they will launch a cryptocurrency-backed mortgage program in summer 2026, enabling qualified borrowers to use bitcoin (BTC) or USDC as collateral to fund down payments on mortgages backed by Fannie Mae. This initiative follows the U.S. Federal Housing Finance Agency’s (FHFA) directive in June 2025 instructing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to include crypto assets in mortgage risk assessments—without requiring conversion into fiat currency. Other lenders, including Newrez, have already begun adopting similar measures. However, some U.S. senators have expressed concerns that cryptocurrency price volatility could threaten housing market stability. Republican Senator Cynthia Lummis has introduced the “21st Century Mortgage Act,” aiming to codify this policy into law.

Zcash fixes vulnerability that could have allowed infinite ZEC minting, but privacy pool features prevent verifying if it was exploited

on May 29, 2026, Taylor Hornby discovered a critical counterfeiting vulnerability in Zcash's Orchard pool. Taylor Hornby reported the vulnerability to the Zcash Open Development Lab, and after coordinated efforts, a fix was completed on June 2. The vulnerability could have been exploited to secretly create an unlimited number of counterfeit ZEC within Zcash Orchard. Due to the privacy features of Orchard, it is cryptographically impossible to determine whether the vulnerability was exploited before the fix was deployed.The vulnerability had existed since Orchard's activation in May 2022 until an emergency fix was deployed on June 1, 2026. Taylor Hornby, with the assistance of AI tools, wrote a complete exploit program and generated an infinite, undetectable amount of counterfeit ZEC in a local test environment. Shielded Labs is currently collaborating with other Zcash developers to explore network upgrade proposals that would allow anyone to verify the integrity of Zcash's supply.

White House Crypto Advisor Defends the Clarity for Digital Assets Act, Legislative Window May Close in Just Months

According to The Block, Patrick Witt, the White House’s cryptocurrency advisor, characterized the “Clarity for Digital Assets Act” as a “pro-regulation, pro-law-enforcement” bill during a virtual town hall hosted by the Blockchain Association—responding to law enforcement agencies’ concerns that the bill would weaken their ability to combat financial crime. Senator Cynthia Lummis warned that if the bill fails to pass this year, it may not be revisited until 2030. The bill currently faces multiple hurdles, including disputes over its anti-money laundering (AML) provisions, uncertainty regarding whether the “Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act” (BRCA) would exempt non-custodial developers from money transmission obligations, and unresolved conflicts of interest tied to former President Trump’s personal cryptocurrency investments. Last month, Democratic Senator Catherine Cortez Masto voted against the bill, citing concerns that it would impede law enforcement’s ability to trace illicit funds.
