Haseeb posted on X, stating that with models like GLM 5.2, Fable, and GPT 5.6 already launched and actively used by attackers, DeFi has not experienced the anticipated "hacker apocalypse." Chart data shows that based on the current year's data and running rate, the annualized amount stolen from DeFi in 2026 is approximately $1.89 billion. The cumulative stolen amount for the year is around $986 million, lower than the 2025 level and still within the historical range. Haseeb noted that the deeper change now is that while the number of hacker attacks has increased, the scale of individual attacks is declining more rapidly. Attackers are increasingly targeting smaller protocols and abandoned projects, while large protocols have implemented more security enhancements. As a result, overall fund security has not significantly deteriorated.

Odaily, Polymarket-based DeFi startup Gondor has announced the launch of Gondor v1, claiming it will be the first margin account product for Polymarket. The version is expected to go live publicly in September.Gondor v1 will allow users to manage cross-margining across their entire Polymarket portfolio, using the full portfolio as collateral for loans. Users can then use the credit line to purchase more prediction market shares, achieving higher capital efficiency and leverage operations.This marks an expansion from the beta version Gondor launched seven months ago. The previous product primarily allowed users to take out loans against individual Polymarket positions, while v1 expands the collateral scope to the entire portfolio.Prediction markets like Polymarket and Kalshi typically operate on a full collateral model, requiring users to deposit the entire risk amount upfront and lock up funds until the event is settled. Gondor aims to unlock this locked capital through portfolio margining and lending mechanisms, allowing users to gain additional liquidity and continue placing bets without immediately selling their positions.
Odaily, Jupiter, a decentralized exchange on the Solana ecosystem, has launched the Jupiter Gacha beta, allowing collectors to purchase authentic, graded Pokémon and One Piece cards and trade them on-chain.Jupiter stated that each "card pull" purchased by a user corresponds to a physical card that is certified and encased in a plastic grading slab, while simultaneously generating an on-chain token, enabling free trading on Jupiter.This model combines physical collectible cards with on-chain liquidity: the cards themselves are real, graded cards, while the on-chain tokens represent their ownership or trading credentials, reducing the friction of transfer and settlement in collectible trading.

New Hampshire Governor Kelly Ayotte signed HB 639 into law last week. Known as The Blockchain Basic Laws, the bill provides protections for cryptocurrency innovation and usage within the state and allows for the establishment of a special blockchain dispute docket in the superior court. Last year, New Hampshire passed a strategic Bitcoin reserve bill, allowing the state treasurer to invest up to 5% of public funds in Bitcoin, as well as precious metals such as gold and silver. Additionally, the state's Executive Council last week rejected a proposal that would have allowed the New Hampshire Business Finance Authority to promote Bitcoin-backed municipal bonds. (Decrypt)

: Amid the escalating situation between the United States and Iran, Bitcoin continues to face pressure, with its price briefly approaching $62,000 as risk assets experience widespread selling pressure. Data shows BTC/USD is declining, and JDK Analysis notes that Bitcoin's current price trend is "very weak," with a large amount of short capital betting on further declines, potentially making the $60,000 area a market focus again.However, if new spot buying emerges and key support levels hold, a significant number of shorts could face a squeeze. Some traders remain bullish, with trader Roman pointing out that multiple technical indicators, including the current RSI and trading volume, suggest the market may be experiencing downside exhaustion. He believes Bitcoin still has the potential to rebound to the $70,000 to $75,000 range in the future.

Odaily Planet Daily – Japan's digital asset issuance and management platform Progmat has completed its migration to the Avalanche blockchain, transferring security token assets worth over 452 billion yen (approximately $2.7 billion) from its existing private permissioned ledger to a dedicated Avalanche Layer 1 network.Progmat stated that this migration was not a simple swap of the underlying ledger but a redesign of the platform's architecture, ensuring the system no longer relies on a single blockchain and laying the foundation for supporting a multi-chain ecosystem in the future.During the migration process, all existing smart contracts were transferred to the EVM environment while maintaining the functionality and rules of already-launched projects. The entire migration process had no impact on the operations of financial institution users, with all business continuing to run normally.According to Progmat, following the migration, the processing speed for transferring asset rights has improved approximately 3 to 5 times compared to the previous environment, with final confirmation times reduced to under 2 seconds.Progmat was initially incubated by Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking, part of one of Japan's largest banks, MUFG, and became independently operated in October 2023. The platform is currently supported by institutions including Mizuho Financial Group, Tokyo Stock Exchange, and SBI Holdings. (The Block)

According to Borderless' Q2 2026 Stablecoin Payment Benchmark Report, stablecoin cross-border payment prices remained below interbank foreign exchange rates for three consecutive months in the second quarter, indicating that the cost of on-chain USD settlement is further converging with, and even surpassing, the traditional financial system. Based on data analysis from 108 countries and 260 payment corridors, the report shows that the median "Parity Gap" (the difference between the stablecoin delivery price and the interbank exchange rate) for stablecoin payments in Q2 was negative 3.2 basis points (bps). In June, this metric reached its lowest level this year at negative 5.9 bps, meaning the overall delivery price for stablecoin cross-border transfers was lower than the interbank market mid-rate.Borderless stated that achieving a final delivery price below the interbank exchange rate is quite rare for any cross-border payment mechanism. This data reflects the actual cost paid by customers, including fees, rather than the pure foreign exchange execution price.The report points out that the "transfer cost" for stablecoin payments is becoming commoditized. In Q2, the average cost of transferring $10,000 via mainstream corridors was approximately $27, and has remained near this level for five consecutive months. As competition among different service providers intensifies, the lowest quoted price changes continuously, but market prices are gradually stabilizing.As payment costs converge, the choice of service provider becomes the new core cost factor. Borderless refers to this phenomenon as the "Routing Tax": if a company relies on a single payment service provider over the long term, its costs may be higher than the optimal market price. Data shows that for every $1 million in funds transferred, choosing a single provider compared to the optimal route could result in an additional cost of approximately $2,330. (The Block)
As the tokenization of capital markets intensifies, the Securities Transfer Association (STA) recently submitted a comment letter to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), warning that stock tokens issued by third-party entities could undermine market integrity. The association is calling on regulators to prioritize tokenized securities authorized by listed companies in future rulemaking.The STA represents numerous Wall Street transfer agents, whose members argue that genuine tokenized stocks should be formally authorized by the issuing company and recorded on the official shareholder register, rather than consisting of "wrapped" token products created by independent platforms.The association points out that third-party stock tokens could confuse investors regarding their actual holdings and expose them to platform credit, custody, and operational risks, without establishing a direct legal relationship with the listed company. Therefore, any innovation exemptions, pilot programs, or permanent regulatory frameworks for tokenized securities should be prioritized for the issuer-supported model. The STA also urges the SEC to reform the existing Direct Registration System (DRS), arguing that the current U.S. securities depository system struggles to meet the real-time transfer and settlement demands of on-chain securities. It recommends that regulators collaborate with the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) to optimize the digital securities infrastructure.Currently, the global tokenized stock market, valued at approximately $2 billion, is predominantly led by the third-party model, including products launched by Ondo Finance and Kraken, while institutions like Securitize and Figure adopt the issuer-authorized model.

: Industry insiders indicate that after the US Senate reconvenes, it will enter a critical window of approximately four weeks, determining whether the Clarity Act can pass this year. The bill needs to complete the finalized text, Senate debate, and voting before the August recess, and secure at least 60 votes of support in the Senate. Current negotiation focuses include whether to retain the exemption clause for non-custodial developers within the "Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act," and establishing an "ethics framework" for official conflicts of interest regarding President Trump's cryptocurrency business interests. Meanwhile, the passing of Senator Lindsey Graham and the absence of Mitch McConnell have weakened Republican voting power, increasing the importance of securing support from Democratic senators.

A UK government-backed industry working group has stated that if the UK becomes a leader in tokenized financial markets, it could add up to £33 billion (approximately $44 billion) to annual economic output by 2035. The report proposes a 12-month plan to test the use of blockchain in financial transactions where securities are borrowed against cash, and calls for the UK to issue its first tokenized government bond before the first quarter of 2027. Ripple supports the initiative, stating that on-chain funds, bonds, and repurchase agreements have already proven to be cheaper, better, and faster than traditional counterparts. (Cointelegraph).
