Coinbase 联合创始人兼 CEO Brian Armstrong 发文表示，两党已耗费数千小时推动 CLARITY 加密监管法案进入最后阶段，该法案具备强有力的消费者保护条款，并赋予执法部门打击不法行为者的工具，呼吁国会不再拖延、尽快投票。
: Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong posted on X platform on July 27, urging the U.S. Senate to advance the vote on the CLARITY Act, stating that the bill was formed through years of bipartisan negotiations. Armstrong stated that the CLARITY Act would strengthen law enforcement powers, introduce new consumer protections, and provide a federal regulatory framework for the digital asset industry. He noted that there are currently no federal laws in the U.S. that protect consumers or support the development of the industry within the country. On July 22, U.S. Senate Republicans released an updated version of the CLARITY Act text, covering disclosure standards, registration requirements, anti-fraud provisions, and expanded anti-money laundering obligations for digital asset market participants. BlackRock, Fidelity Investments, Charles Schwab, and Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon have expressed support for the bill.
According to Cointelegraph, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) recently published a quantum security white paper and launched the industry's first Quantum Preparedness Index (QPI) to assess the banking sector's readiness to address quantum computing security threats. Survey results indicate that the overall QPI score for the banking sector is only 2.3 out of 10, with approximately half of the surveyed institutions yet to formulate formal post-quantum security plans. The HKMA aims for the entire industry to achieve a full score by 2030. The white paper points out that once quantum computers are capable of running Shor's algorithm at scale, they could potentially break existing RSA and elliptic curve encryption systems, thereby threatening the security of financial transaction authorization, authentication, and trust mechanisms.
South Korean Financial Services Commission Chairman Lee Eok-yeon announced that if market demand for single-stock leveraged ETFs fails to cool down sufficiently, regulators will study the introduction of further regulatory measures, including limits on individual investment quotas. It is reported that South Korea may limit the investment scale of single-stock leveraged ETFs to within 20% of an individual's total financial investment assets and assess further raising investor access thresholds, including introducing periodic re-education, simulated trading, and minimum investment experience requirements. At the same time, the South Korean Financial Services Commission requires fund companies to disperse ETF rebalancing (Rebalancing) timing to avoid concentrated position adjustments at the end of trading sessions amplifying market volatility, and calls on Liquidity Providers (LP) to reasonably control quoting and trading frequency to reduce unnecessary trading. The South Korean FSC previously announced that starting from July 31, the minimum margin for single-stock leveraged ETFs will be increased to 30 million Korean won, and investor education and premium rate management will be strengthened.
Odaily News Kalshi trader Caleb Davies stated that he had requested Kalshi to delay the settlement of a Spotify prediction market to allow the执法 team to review suspected artificially manipulated streaming data. The market focused on which artists would top the Spotify US Daily Chart, with a trading volume of $3.32 million. Davies stated that Malcolm Todd's song "Earrings" surged approximately 70% in a single day and reached the top of the Spotify US Chart on June 29. Kalshi's Head of Enforcement and Legal, Robert DeNault, responded that only Spotify could verify whether the data originated from genuine listens or manipulation. Kalshi finalized the settlement minutes after issuing this response. Davies noted that the open interest for the "Earrings" outcome rose from $2,000 to over $70,000 in the days leading up to the emergence of the disputed streaming data. The following day, Spotify removed 523,000 streams from the cumulative data for "Earrings," meaning that under the adjusted data, the song would have ranked fourth on June 29 instead of first. Subsequently, Spotify requested Kalshi and Polymarket to remove its branding, stating that neither party had established a partnership with the streaming service. Kalshi has removed the relevant branding and modified its wording. Spokesperson Elisabeth Diana stated that the company is contacting Spotify and conducting an investigation; Kalshi has not yet published the investigation results, rescinded the settlement, or announced compensation.

As the congressional recess approaches (the Senate is scheduled to recess on August 7), little time remains in the legislative window.
According to CoinDesk, U.S. District Court Judge for the District of Minnesota Katherine Menendez ruled on July 28 local time that the Minnesota state law criminalizing the operation of prediction markets likely violates the federal Commodity Exchange Act (CEA), and granted a preliminary injunction to Kalshi, Polymarket, and the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) to suspend the enforcement of the state law. The judge held that prediction market contracts structurally fall under 'swap' products within the CFTC's regulatory scope, federal law takes precedence over state law, and the three plaintiffs are 'likely to prevail in the formal trial'. Additionally, the judge noted that failing to suspend the enforcement of the law would cause 'irreparable harm' to Kalshi and Polymarket. The preliminary injunction will remain in effect until the final judgment of the case is issued.
Nasdaq-listed financial services company Siebert Financial Corp. has agreed to become the US partner of Kakao Pay Securities. The two parties plan to launch tokenized trading services for Korean stocks targeting US investors through the K-Stock Global Gateway. Kakao Pay Securities holds approximately 9 million stock accounts in South Korea. The two parties plan to explore the tokenization of Korean stocks, allowing US investors to access Korean stocks outside the normal trading hours of the Korea Exchange, and to study whether tokenized securities can support T+0 settlement. The initial tokenized trading service is targeted for launch in the first half of 2027. The two parties stated that any implementation must comply with US and South Korean regulatory requirements and investor protection standards.
U.S. District Judge Katherine Menendez for the District of Minnesota ruled on Monday that a recently enacted Minnesota state law banning prediction markets may conflict with the Commodity Exchange Act. She granted a preliminary injunction in favor of Kalshi, Polymarket, and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). Kalshi, Polymarket, and the CFTC had sued the state of Minnesota earlier this year after the state passed a law classifying the operation of prediction markets within the state as a criminal offense. The three parties argued that prediction market contracts are structured as "swaps" and that the state law infringes upon the CFTC's regulatory authority over such products. In her ruling, Judge Menendez stated that the parties are likely to succeed on the merits of their claim that the federal Commodity Exchange Act preempts the state law.
: New York Attorney General Letitia James submitted written testimony to the U.S. Congress, urging stronger regulation of cryptocurrency companies and warning that proposed federal legislation could undermine states' ability to investigate fraud and hold platforms accountable. Letitia James stated that the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act would preempt state-level digital asset market regulation and transfer oversight authority to the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), thereby weakening state and local enforcement. She disclosed that the New York Attorney General’s Office has seen a threefold increase in crypto fraud complaints over the past three years, with total reported losses over the past five years approaching $500 million. She called on crypto platforms to comply with anti-money laundering, know-your-customer (KYC), and cybersecurity requirements, monitor suspicious activity and market manipulation, and be held financially responsible when they fail to protect customers from fraud.
Asset management firm Franklin Templeton announced its support for the CLARITY Act on July 27. Franklin Resources had previously disclosed that as of June 30, its assets under management totaled $1.79 trillion, up from $1.78 trillion a month earlier. Franklin Templeton stated that the CLARITY Act would establish clearer rules for digital assets, help investors understand the protections available, and increase corporate certainty regarding the division of federal regulatory responsibilities. BlackRock, Fidelity Investments, Goldman Sachs, and Charles Schwab have previously publicly supported this market structure bill. Senate Republicans released an updated version on July 22, proposing to divide the regulatory oversight of digital assets between the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).
: The world’s largest asset management company, BlackRock, has expressed support for the CLARITY Act. Samara Cohen, Senior Managing Director and Head of Global Market Development at BlackRock, stated the bill represents a significant step toward establishing an investor-first regulatory framework for digital assets. Cohen stated the bill will help shape the next phase of market structure in the US by supporting innovation while maintaining transparency, resilience, and investor protection. Fidelity, Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon, and Charles Schwab have previously expressed support for related legislation or clearer digital asset rules. Last week, the US Senate Republicans released an updated version of the CLARITY Act, integrating work from both the Senate Banking Committee and the Agriculture Committee. Senate Majority Leader John Thune indicated that relevant Senate work could extend beyond the August recess. Crypto advocacy group Stand With Crypto stated that it has sent over 925,000 emails to Congress in 2025, exceeding 1.1 million contacts with Congress since its founding. The organization said each Senate vote on the CLARITY Act will be included in a public congressional scorecard.
Odaily Odaily News A bipartisan group of Pennsylvania state legislators has introduced HB 2711, a bill aimed at prohibiting sportsbooks and other gambling companies from acting as liquidity providers or market makers on prediction platforms. The bill was introduced by State Representative Tarik Khan on July 22 and has been referred to the House Consumer Protection, Technology, and Utilities Committee. The bill would also bar prediction platforms from contracting or sharing revenue with enterprises primarily engaged in gambling activities, with restrictions covering parent companies, subsidiaries, affiliates, joint ventures, employees, and entities acting for the financial benefit of other companies. DraftKings and Flutter have both previously advanced market-making operations; DraftKings recently launched the DKeX exchange after acquiring CFTC-registered firm Railbird Technologies. HB 2711 proposes setting a minimum participation age of 21 and requires platforms to exclude self-excluded users, company employees, employees of settlement sources, and those holding material non-public information. The bill also mandates that platforms implement commercially reasonable measures to prevent fraud, manipulation, and the misuse of material non-public information, and prohibits markets involving high school sports, sports events involving minors, personal health conditions, and death events. The proposal does not establish a licensing system, with enforcement authority vesting in the state Attorney General. A companion bill, HB 2497, would require platforms to obtain a license from the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board and impose an aggregate 22% tax on the revenue of prediction betting platforms. Neither bill has yet received a committee vote or hearing.

Crypto.com Custody has announced it will provide institutional-grade custody and liquidity services for XYO and XL1. This marks the first listing on a major trading platform for XL1 following its token sale, allowing qualified institutions and high-net-worth clients to store, manage, and exchange both tokens through a regulated pathway. Related assets will be held in client-segregated MPC wallets and held by bankruptcy-remote entities. Private keys are protected by multi-party computation running within a trusted execution environment. Clients have access to cold storage, audit trails, and Crypto.com’s institutional liquidity services. Eric Anziani, President and Chief Operating Officer of Crypto.com, stated that digital asset organizations require custody solutions that offer both security and liquidity. Markus Levin, co-founder of XYO, noted that after XYO was initially listed on the Crypto.com trading platform, the relationship between the two parties has continued to expand. In July 2026, Citadel Securities invested $400 million in Crypto.com at a valuation of $20 billion. In February 2026, the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) conditionally approved Crypto.com to establish Crypto.com National Trust Bank.
Odaily reports: After perpetual futures entered the regulated US market, Wall Street institutions are still taking a wait-and-see approach. Bank of America estimates that the global annual trading volume of perpetual futures is approximately 90 trillion USD; within a week of Kalshi launching perpetual futures in June, trading volume exceeded 1 billion USD. Perpetual futures are similar to standard futures but have no expiration date, meaning traders do not need to close or roll over positions monthly or quarterly. Instead, periodic funding rates keep the contract price close to the underlying asset. On May 29, the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) approved Kalshi to offer such contracts, and Coinbase also received approval to list regulated perpetual futures in the US. Insiders say that large financial institutions are still studying these products, with proprietary trading firms, market makers, and emerging clearing firms likely to be the first to participate. Large banks face stricter capital rules, client obligations, and reputational risks, and typically wait for years of data, clear regulatory treatment, and stable infrastructure. Perpetual futures may also be used to manage weekend risk, but market depth remains a concern. Industry insiders note that regulatory disagreements are emerging over whether certain contracts should be classified as futures or swaps, and CME has already challenged the CFTC's handling of Kalshi's Bitcoin perpetual contract.
