California financial regulator opposes SEC crypto plan, warns it could weaken investor protection

Odaily report: The California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation (DFPI) has submitted a comment letter to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) opposing its "Regulation Crypto Assets" proposal, stating that the plan could weaken investor protection and limit state government review of issuance projects. DFPI Commissioner KC Mohseni said California opposes federal regulators undermining state-level regulatory authority and protective measures.The proposal would allow eligible issuers to raise up to $5 million over four years through a startup exemption; another crypto fundraising exemption would allow issuers to raise up to $75 million within 12 months. Relevant issuances would need to disclose project details, risks, and other information necessary for investor assessment, and some fundraisings would also require submission of financial statements and ongoing reporting.Federal securities laws still preserve states' authority to investigate securities fraud, deceptive practices, and illegal broker or dealer activities. Blockchain payments company Ripple, crypto exchange Coinbase, and exchange operator Nasdaq all support adjusting the proposal; the DFPI said its scam tracker list added nearly 200 crypto-related scams, an increase of 30% from the previous year.

“White-haired Stock God” Serenity Slams SIVE Management: Lack of Clear Commitment to Listing Timeline May Worsen Market Concerns

Odaily reports: “White-haired Stock God” Serenity published a post criticizing the management of optical communications laser manufacturer Sivers (SIVE) for failing to highlight the potential commercial value of its laser production capacity in recent earnings communications, and for lacking a clear commitment to a Nasdaq listing timeline, which may exacerbate market concerns about its near-term execution capabilities.However, Serenity believes that Sivers’ plan to add 100 million units of annual CW DFB laser production capacity in the fourth quarter of 2027 comes at a time of tight industry supply. Meanwhile, Lumentum (LITE) has sold out its capacity through 2029, and Coherent (COHR) and Applied Optoelectronics (AAOI) are also diverting part of their laser capacity to their own product programs, which may create opportunities for Sivers to secure customer and capacity agreements. In addition, Sivers’ commercialization opportunities with companies such as Jabil (JBL) and GlobalFoundries (GFS), as well as its previously established co-packaged optics (CPO) projects, may see key progress starting in 2027.

SkyAI Major Shareholder Bastion Trading Demands Board Accountability and Disclosure of SOL Liquidation Details

Bastion Trading, a major shareholder holding approximately 9.99% of SkyAI (Nasdaq: SKYA), has issued a statement demanding that Executive Chairman Paul K. Danner III and several directors publicly explain the decision-making process behind the liquidation of the company's entire SOL reserve and the approval of the cash tender offer, and calling for a higher offer price and stronger disclosure of conflicts of interest. Bastion Trading noted that SkyAI launched its tender offer on October 16, 2026, but failed to adequately address its previously raised corporate governance concerns; just one month earlier, the company had still stated that it held more than 2 million SOL and reaffirmed its Solana digital asset treasury (DAT) strategy.Bastion Trading demands that the tender offer price be raised from $3 per share to at least $3.5 per share, and that the maximum acquisition ratio of pre-funded warrants be increased from 95% to 100%; it also requires that strategic advisor warrants be excluded from the scope of the offer, that the securities and potential gains held by directors, officers, and related parties be disclosed, and that information including the SOL sale transactions, the company's balance sheet, and the basis for the tender offer pricing be published. The firm also stated that if directors cannot demonstrate that they fulfilled their independent oversight duties, they should resign voluntarily; otherwise, a special shareholders' meeting should be convened to let shareholders decide the composition of the board. The above content represents demands unilaterally raised by Bastion Trading, and the relevant response from SkyAI's board has not been reflected in the provided materials. (Globenewswire)
