Whale "First Set Ten Big Goals": It Will Become Increasingly Rare to See Bitcoin Below $60,000 in the Future

the whale "First Set Ten Big Goals" posted on platform X, stating that after closing their short position, they quickly re-established a long position because their medium-to-long-term outlook has not changed. They believe the key demarcation zone of the previous bull market was around $60,000, and currently, the mainstream mining cost for Bitcoin is roughly concentrated in the $50,000 to $60,000 range. Last month, Bitcoin quickly recovered after dipping to a low of $58,000, validating the support level in this area. They believe that, barring systemic risks or major fundamental changes, the risk-reward ratio of continuing to short at the current level is not favorable. After Bitcoin completed its consolidation and hand-changing in the $58,000 to $63,000 range, it finished its correction and firmly re-established support around $66,000. The market now has the conditions for further upward movement, and they do not rule out the possibility of a strong bullish candle pushing Bitcoin past $72,000.They also stated that the current valuation of the US stock market, especially the AI-related sectors, is relatively high, which could lead to increased volatility in the future. Furthermore, the correlation between Bitcoin and US stocks has significantly decreased compared to previous cycles. With continued institutional capital inflows and the strengthening of Bitcoin's asset attributes, Bitcoin is gradually forging its own independent market trend..

DeAgentAI Completes $5 Million AIA Buyback Program, Second Batch Burn Executed

: DeAgentAI, a decentralized AI infrastructure project on the SUI and BNB ecosystems, announced that its total buyback program of $5 million worth of AIA tokens has been fully executed. The first batch, involving the burning of 1 million AIA tokens, was completed earlier. This second batch burn of 10 million AIA tokens has now been completed, bringing the cumulative total burned to 11 million tokens, accounting for 23.1% of the total repurchased amount. All tokens have been sent to a black hole address for permanent destruction.Furthermore, DeAgentAI announced the official launch of a quarterly burning mechanism. Going forward, the AIA burn plan will be executed on a quarterly basis, marking the deflation mechanism's entry into a normalized phase. The funds for the buyback come from the project's protocol revenue and profits from its proprietary AI trading models, and are unrelated to external financing or token inflation.

Gate Pre-IPOs Second Phase Launches OpenAI (OPENAI), Supporting Dual Token Participation with USDT and GUSD

: Digital asset trading platform Gate has announced that it will open subscriptions for the second phase of its Pre-IPOs project, OpenAI (OPENAI), from July 15, 2026, 15:00 to July 17, 2026, 15:00 (UTC+8), supporting participation with both USDT and GUSD. The total subscription value for the project is approximately $20 million, with 27,700 OPENAI asset certificates issued at a price of 1 OPENAI = $722. The minimum investment is 100 USDT or 100 GUSD, with implicit handling fees and custody costs waived. OpenAI, driven by products like ChatGPT, is advancing generative AI development and has received investments from Microsoft and others, with an implied market valuation of approximately $895 billion.The OPENAI asset certificate is a pre-IPO mirror note for OpenAI, designed to reflect the company's value before and after its public listing. Gate will hedge its exposure by acquiring the corresponding stocks and will offer pathways including pre-market trading, long-term holding, and future conversion into underlying stock assets, stock tokens, or USDT. Allocations are calculated based on the "average hourly locked amount"; the earlier the participation and the longer the lock-up period, the higher the weight. The certificates will be unlocked in three phases on July 17, August 17, and September 17, with pre-market trading opening on July 20. Concurrently, Gate is launching VIP/Super Agent airdrops, GT rewards, and a 3.8% annualized GUSD minting yield. Furthermore, Gate has already introduced Pre-IPOs, IPO Access, Gate Stocks, and gStocks, covering US, Hong Kong, and Korean stocks, encompassing over 12,500 stocks and ETFs, and will continuously expand its global asset ecosystem, including ETFs and RWAs. Gate will continue to bridge traditional finance with on-chain assets, providing global users with a more open, efficient, and one-stop investment service.

AI Giants Shake Up Capital Markets: SpaceX, OpenAI, and Anthropic Could Create the Biggest Exit Wave in US VC History

the National Venture Capital Association (NVCA) and PitchBook recently released the "Venture Monitor" report, noting that after SpaceX's listing and the potential IPOs of Anthropic and OpenAI, the combined value generated by these three companies will reach an unprecedented level. The report states: "With SpaceX going public, combined with the future exits of these companies, the value created will surpass the total exit value of all US VC-backed companies since 2000." The core factor lies in the extremely high valuation expectations of these three companies.SpaceX is currently valued at approximately $1.77 trillion, while Anthropic and OpenAI are also moving towards multi-trillion-dollar enterprise valuations. The market estimates that the combined valuation of the three companies could exceed $4 trillion. This scale far surpasses past large-scale tech IPOs. Data from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) shows that total US IPO fundraising last year was about $70 billion, whereas SpaceX's single-company valuation has already reached a level that traditional large-scale IPOs find hard to match. As a once-highly-watched tech IPO case, Uber was valued at around $84 billion when it went public in 2019, which is less than 5% of SpaceX's current valuation.However, the comparison by NVCA and PitchBook is based on "enterprise value created," not the actual cash-out amounts for investors. Additionally, the analysis does not include non-US companies like Alibaba. Furthermore, the value created by already-public companies such as Apple, Google Android, YouTube, and Instagram is not counted in the VC exit statistics.The report points out that over the past 25 years, the US tech market has seen several historic IPOs, including Google in 2004, Tesla in 2010, and Meta in 2012. These companies have since become some of the world's most valuable enterprises. Additionally, companies like LinkedIn, Slack, and WhatsApp were acquired for over $20 billion.The NVCA believes that the current IPO cycle driven by artificial intelligence (AI) could further break these records. The analysis suggests two main reasons driving this trend:First, tech companies are staying private for longer periods than in the past, accumulating higher valuations through prolonged financing and business expansion. If today's Google were in its early stages, it might also choose to go public later to achieve a higher market valuation.Second, the AI industry is highly capital-intensive. Training large AI models requires massive investment, pushing AI companies to continuously raise substantial funds and driving rapid valuation growth.Industry insiders believe that the potential scale of IPOs by SpaceX, Anthropic, and OpenAI will test the capacity of the US capital market. As AI companies transition from the private financing stage to the public market, how trillions of dollars in tech assets flow into the stock market will become a focus for investors. (DigitalToday)

Aave CEO: Will Never Sell AAVE Tokens at a 70% Discount, Designing Aavenomics 3.0 Buyback Mechanism

Odaily Odaily: In response to recent community discussions, the Aave CEO issued a statement clarifying that Aave will never sell AAVE tokens at a 70% discount.According to the "Aave Will Win (AWW)" proposal, 100% of the revenue generated by the Aave protocol and the GHO stablecoin belongs to AAVE token holders. This principle also applies to all product revenues, including Aave App, Aave Pro, and Swaps. As a service provider for Aave DAO, Aave Labs is solely responsible for protocol development and expansion and does not receive any protocol or product revenue.The Aave CEO revealed that Aave's current annualized revenue has reached $134 million, all of which belongs to Aave DAO. Additionally, the Aave brand and related software intellectual property rights belong to AAVE.Furthermore, the team is designing Aavenomics 3.0, which plans to introduce a new, automated, non-discretionary buyback mechanism. More details will be announced later. He stated that Aave's goal is not only to serve the crypto market but also the entire financial asset market, including Real World Assets (RWA).

Jiang Zhuoer Analyzes MSTR Capital Structure: BTC Reserves Can Cover Years of Dividend Payments, But Market Sentiment Remains Cautious

Jiang Zhuoer stated in a post that MicroStrategy (MSTR) currently holds approximately $55 billion in Bitcoin assets, corresponding to an annual dividend payment of about $1.7 billion for its STRC preferred stock. Theoretically, selling BTC could cover dividend requirements for roughly 32 years.STRC is classified as preferred stock rather than a debt instrument, so there is no traditional mandatory principal repayment pressure. From a financial structure perspective, MSTR does not face "liquidation-style leverage risk" or short-term solvency crises. However, the discussion itself reflects growing market concerns about the company's long-term cash flow and cryptocurrency asset volatility. STRC has already experienced significant discount fluctuations, limiting its refinancing capabilities.Furthermore, MSTR has recently relied more on issuing common stock (which may dilute BTC per share when mNAV is below 1) to fund its BTC accumulation. This strategy is difficult to sustain over the long term.Jiang Zhuoer indicated that even if the scale of MSTR's actual BTC sales to pay dividends is relatively small compared to the broader market, the symbolic significance may be more important. It could pressure market confidence and prompt investors to reassess the possibility of "long-term passive BTC selling." Market understanding of this structure is not uniform, and this divergence in perception itself could become an important factor influencing expectations and sentiment.

CertiK Report: Wrench Attacks Surge Nearly 12x in Losses, “Operational Security” Becomes New Core of Prevention

Odaily Odaily News, July 22nd - Web3 security firm CertiK released its "H1 2026 Wrench Attack Report." The report indicates that a total of 52 publicly verified wrench attacks were recorded globally in the first half of 2026, a year-over-year increase of 33.3%; related losses amounted to approximately $124 million, an increase of about 11.8 times compared to the same period last year.The report notes that attackers are shifting from exploiting technical vulnerabilities to targeting asset holders and their real-world social networks. Home invasion incidents increased from 1 case in H1 2025 to 20 cases, accounting for 41% of the total incidents in the period. Europe has become a high-incidence area for attacks, with 33 cases occurring in France alone, representing 63.5% of the global total.CertiK stated that as real-world risks become a significant challenge for digital asset security, enterprises and high-net-worth individuals need to establish more comprehensive protection systems. CertiK has launched operational security services to help identify exposure risks related to identity, family, residence, and travel routes. Simultaneously, through the CertiK Security Workspace, it correlates off-chain intelligence, on-chain transactions, and AML risk signals to support institutions in tracking and analyzing cybercrime activities. Furthermore, CertiK is strengthening cooperation with international law enforcement agencies such as Interpol and Europol, providing technical support for cross-border attack investigations and security policy research.

US Senator Warren Says Trump Administration's CFPB Reforms Cost Consumers $26.5 Billion

Odaily U.S. Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren released a report stating that the Trump administration's reform measures at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) may have resulted in up to $26.5 billion in additional costs for American consumers.Warren stated that approximately $22.5 billion of this comes from the CFPB's repeal of policies limiting credit card late fees and bank overdraft fees, with the remaining roughly $4 billion stemming from the agency's abandonment of certain enforcement cases and consumer restitution agreements.The report notes that a previous CFPB rule limiting credit card late fees had planned to cap most late fees at $8, which was expected to save consumers about $10 billion annually. Furthermore, a new rule targeting overdraft fees had aimed to push banks to limit certain overdraft charges to $5.It is reported that Trump implemented sweeping changes at the CFPB, including staff cuts, pausing or reducing multiple enforcement actions, and rescinding some consumer protection rules enacted during the Biden era. Warren criticized that these reforms have weakened the CFPB's role as a consumer financial regulator, exposing consumers to more unfair fees and financial risks. Currently, the CFPB and the White House have not immediately responded to the allegations in Warren's report. (CNBC)

Mantle Super Portal Has Migrated to Chainlink CCIP, Bringing Institutional-Grade Security to MNT Cross-Chain Transfers

According to official information, Mantle announced today that its native cross-chain infrastructure Mantle Super Portal, jointly developed with Bybit, has migrated from LayerZero to Chainlink CCIP. Powered by CCIP, Mantle Super Portal will feature enhanced cross-chain security, decentralized node infrastructure protection, advanced risk management, and institutional-grade security standards, providing a higher level of security for cross-chain transfers of MNT tokens valued at over $2.5 billion. Furthermore, as an increasing number of regulated assets such as tokenized stocks are transferred on-chain, the underlying infrastructure supporting them must also meet traditional finance standards. This migration will further solidify Mantle's position as a "distribution layer connecting traditional finance and on-chain liquidity," and also reflects Mantle and Bybit's continued commitment to developing MNT through further integrations, opportunities, and use cases. According to the details provided, Mantle Super Portal will be temporarily closed during the migration, scheduled from July 9 to 15, 2026 (the actual timeframe may be slightly extended). No action is required from users, and transfers will automatically resume upon completion of the migration.

Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission Discusses Removing the 10% Minimum Exemption for Virtual Asset Management

the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Professional Association stated that representatives from regulatory bodies, including Executive Director of the SFC's Intermediaries Division Keith Yee and Deputy Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury Joseph Chan, discussed several specific policy changes. These include: canceling the previous 10% minimum exemption for virtual asset management, and implementing new regulations effective immediately without a transitional period.Furthermore, the SFC indicated that it has communicated with the Hong Kong Securities and Investment Institute (HKSI). In the future, the examination for virtual asset platform practitioners will be separated from the existing courses, and examination fees will be lowered, aligning with the costs of current papers such as Paper 2 and Paper 3. The Hong Kong Securities and Futures Professional Association also called for a clear delineation between technology services and regulated activities, suggesting that the SFC establish a more transparent approval timeline and phased reference framework.

Polymarket new: "Will the US government revoke public access to another major AI model?"

The PPP Prediction Market tool monitors that Polymarket has listed a new event: "Will the US government revoke public access to another major AI model?" The current probability is reported at 33%.The settlement rules state: If the US federal government, by the end of 2026, passes relevant legislation, issues an executive order, implements export controls, or takes any other action that substantially restricts US public access to a major AI model, the market outcome will be "Yes." Otherwise, the outcome will be "No." A "qualifying action" refers to a formal measure taken by the US government, the effect of which is equivalent to completely prohibiting the public from accessing a specific AI model within the United States. Furthermore, the settlement rules emphasize that regardless of the action's true purpose or nominal goal; if the action effectively results in the public being unable to access the model within the US—for example, prohibiting the model from being provided to foreign citizens or governments, as long as the general public cannot access the model through conventional channels within the US—it meets the qualification requirements. Merely excluding access to the model from a single channel is insufficient. Removals of public access that are not caused by any formal action of the US government are not eligible."Mainstream AI model" refers to the flagship, general-purpose large language model or multimodal foundation model developed by one of the following companies: OpenAI, Anthropic, Google (including Google DeepMind), Meta, xAI, Microsoft, Amazon, Mistral AI, DeepSeek, Alibaba, ByteDance, Moonshot AI, and Zhipu AI (Z.ai). Models designed for specific tasks, or those that are outdated, used solely for research or preview purposes, do not meet this criterion.The action can target a single model or a group of models, as long as at least one major AI model becomes inaccessible to the public within the US as a result. A temporary suspension of public access to a model meets this condition. However, if an action has been implemented or a related resolution has been issued, but the public can still access the model before the resolution takes effect, that action does not meet the condition.The information sources for this market are official announcements and information from the US government and the relevant AI companies. However, reliable media reports may also be referenced to form a consensus.The Odaily Seer Channel continues to monitor prediction markets, observing changes before prices are set.

Analysis: High Compliance Bar of UK FCA's Crypto Regulatory Framework Could Be Key Challenge for Implementation

the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) officially published its crypto asset regulatory framework this week, widely regarded by the industry as an international approach emphasizing "global liquidity access," but its implementation still faces significant compliance and approval challenges.Under the new rules, the FCA allows overseas trading platforms to serve UK users through locally authorized branches and access global trading infrastructure, thus avoiding the formation of a closed domestic liquidity pool. Meanwhile, stablecoins not issued in the UK can also circulate in the British market, a stance seen as distinctly different from the regional isolation model of the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA). The "Qualified Crypto Asset Trading Platform" (QCATP) mechanism within the new rules is viewed as a key structure connecting global exchanges with the UK market, potentially enhancing price efficiency and market depth. However, industry insiders point out that the FCA has yet to clarify which jurisdictions are deemed to have "comparable regulatory protections," a uncertainty that could affect corporate planning decisions.Furthermore, rules related to decentralized finance (DeFi) remain not fully clarified. Some practitioners fear that initial proposals might restrict centralized platforms from accessing the DeFi ecosystem, potentially leaving the UK behind other jurisdictions in this area of innovation.On the compliance front, lawyers point out that under the new Financial Services and Markets Act framework, the authorization process could be extremely stringent. Historical data shows that the FCA's anti-money laundering registration application approval rate is less than 15%. The new system will also cover multiple regulatory requirements including consumer duty, capital adequacy, operational resilience, and senior manager accountability, significantly raising the entry barrier.Industry observers believe the framework overall provides an institutional foundation for institutional capital to enter the crypto market. However, whether the UK can truly become a global crypto hub will depend on the certainty of regulatory enforcement and approval efficiency in the coming months. (CoinDesk)

0xSun: Robinhood Chain Could Drive Meme Coin Momentum, CASHCAT, PIPEDOG and Other Projects Worth Watching

Odaily News Trader 0xSun stated on social media that during Robinhood's earnings call, the only token appearing in a fleeting search bar was CASHCAT. Additionally, Robinhood CEO Vlad, when discussing the Robinhood Chain, mentioned that the chain will be built around RWA, adding that he also likes Meme coins.As a result, CASHCAT's market cap rebounded from approximately $30 million to nearly $50 million. 0xSun believes that an ideal trajectory for a public chain resembles the Base ecosystem in late 2024, initially driven by factors such as founder influence and team background, and later ignited by events like exchange listings. Currently, Robinhood possesses similar conditions, and tokens on its chain could benefit from expectations of potential exchange listings.Furthermore, 0xSun noted that the Meme coin PIPEDOG on the Robinhood chain saw its market cap quickly surge past $75 million within a few hours. The project team locked the liquidity pool and refunded 173 ETH to users affected by the initial contract. The project currently has deep liquidity, with the pool containing approximately $4.5 million in ETH at a market cap of around $30 million.Previously active HOODRAT also once approached zero due to the overall downturn of the Robinhood chain but recently received attention from Matt, the original artist of the Pepe comic, causing its market cap to rebound from a low of $500,000 to $5 million.Beyond Meme coins, 0xSun indicated that STONKBROKER is currently one of the better projects within the Robinhood ecosystem that combines NFT, RWA, and game mechanics, making it worthy of continued attention.

Account drawdown of 49.4%, US stock call king with 4,502.45% return over 26 years discloses drawdown ratio

, on-chain analyst Ai Yi posted on platform X stating that Serenity (@aleabitoreddit), the US stock call king who achieved a return rate as high as 4,502.45% over 26 years, disclosed his account drawdown ratio. Since the stocks he holds are mostly in areas facing AI bottlenecks and restrictions, primarily small-cap stocks including AXTI, SIVE, AAOI, etc., this decline has had a direct impact on his account, resulting in a drawdown of 49.4%, nearly halved from the peak. Ai Yi stated that considering Serenity's relatively early entry point, it is likely only a narrowing of profits at present. Furthermore, Serenity mentioned that he can tolerate higher volatility and predicts that his income turning point will come in the second half of 2027.

OpenAI Responds to High-Compute Mode Consumption Visibility Issues: Urgently Resets Codex and ChatGPT Work Quotas

Tibo, a core member of OpenAI Codex, posted on X platform stating that previously, it was too easy for users to enable high-compute mode without fully explaining its impact on usage quotas. The large-scale revamp of the desktop application made common features like chats and projects difficult to find. Additionally, promotional efforts overly focused on ChatGPT Work, leading some Codex users to mistakenly believe that Codex would be phased out in the future. Furthermore, the new version also caused issues with some multi-agent workflows, plugin functions, and other user experiences.In response to the above issues, OpenAI has already rolled out the first batch of improvement measures, including adjusting default settings and the model selector to prevent users from accidentally using high-cost configurations, fixing several plugin submission issues, optimizing the presentation of Codex within the product, and resolving some desktop experience problems.Additionally, over the past 24 hours, OpenAI has been continuously collecting user feedback, analyzing usage patterns, and communicating with users. Although the market has shown strong interest in GPT 5.6 Sol and the web and mobile versions of ChatGPT Work, OpenAI also acknowledges that this update has multiple issues.As of now, two rounds of Codex and ChatGPT Work usage quota top-ups have been completed. The next larger-scale update will be released next week, when chat and project features will return to the sidebar in a more familiar and customizable form. The platform will also enhance the visibility of usage quotas and reset times, further clarifying the respective applicable scenarios for ChatGPT Work and Codex.

Cambridge Study: US Hosts ~31% of Ethereum Nodes; Over One-Third Nodes Offline Could Impact Finalization

Odaily Odaily A new study by the Cambridge Centre for Alternative Finance reveals that approximately 31% of Ethereum node activity is located in the United States, with another 39% distributed across EU countries excluding the UK, indicating that the geographic distribution of Ethereum nodes remains relatively concentrated in Western nations.Lead researcher Alexander Neumuller stated that while node distribution is not currently concentrated in any single country, it is heavily reliant on a few major cloud service providers, including Hetzner, Amazon AWS, and OVH. Notably, the Ethereum network does not require half of its validators to fail for problems to arise. If more than one-third of validators go offline simultaneously, the network may be unable to finalize block checkpoints (finalization). Neumuller pointed out that nodes and validators do not have a one-to-one correspondence; a single node may run multiple validators. Therefore, it is currently impossible to precisely assess the actual impact on the validator network from the failure of a specific node or service provider.Furthermore, the study reassessed the energy consumption of Ethereum following The Merge. Data shows that Ethereum's current annual energy consumption is approximately 7.9 GWh, equivalent to a continuous power draw of about 1 MW. This represents only about 0.02% of pre-merge levels, a reduction of approximately 99.98%. Currently, over 56% of the energy used by the Ethereum network comes from sustainable sources, exceeding the global average.The study also noted that client software diversity is another potential risk. If a dominant client software has a vulnerability, it could affect a large number of network participants. The report was published by the Cambridge Centre for Alternative Finance and supported by the Ethereum Foundation. (The)

The number of hacker attacks hit an all-time high, with crypto projects losing approximately $972 million in the first half of 2026.

an Immunefi report shows that in the first half of 2026, crypto projects suffered cumulative losses of approximately $972 million from 207 hacker attacks. The number of attacks reached a record high, but total losses remained under $1 billion and were less than half the scale of losses in the first half of 2025. The report notes that DeFi attack losses have dropped by 74% from their peak of $2.62 billion in 2022, falling to approximately $680.3 million, with the median single-loss amount declining by 75% over the same period. Furthermore, the source of risk is shifting from purely smart contract vulnerabilities towards infrastructure failures, private key leaks, cross-chain configuration errors, and weaknesses in privileged access.

CertiK Hack3D Report: Web3 Losses Exceed $1.3 Billion in the First Half of 2026, Attacks Accelerate Towards High-Value Targets

Odaily, Web3 security firm CertiK has released the "Hack3D: First Half of 2026 Report." The report shows that the Web3 ecosystem experienced 344 security incidents in the first half of 2026, with cumulative losses of approximately $1.32 billion. Although this figure represents a 46.8% decrease compared to the same period last year, excluding the impact of the $1.45 billion security incident involving Bybit, the scale of losses in the first half of this year actually increased by approximately 28% year-on-year, indicating that the overall security environment in the industry has not materially improved.The report points out that wallet theft has become the attack type causing the greatest financial loss, accounting for approximately $450 million in losses in the first half of the year. Meanwhile, although the number of phishing attacks fell by more than 50% year-on-year, the loss amount only decreased by approximately 10.8%, reflecting that attackers are shifting towards high-net-worth individuals and institutional targets, carrying out more targeted high-value attacks.Furthermore, code vulnerabilities remain the most frequent type of attack, with 204 related incidents.

South Korea Tightens Threshold for Single-Stock Leveraged ETF Trading: Individual Investors Need 30 Million KRW in Cash from July 31

Odaily Odaily News The Korean Financial Services Commission (FSC) has announced that it will advance the implementation of strengthened base deposit requirements for single-stock leveraged ETFs and ETNs to the end of July. Starting July 31, individual investors wishing to newly purchase or add to existing positions in single-stock leveraged ETFs/ETNs must hold at least 30 million KRW in cash as a base deposit in their accounts. This measure applies to single-stock leveraged ETFs and ETNs listed both domestically and overseas. Financial authorities stated that the decision to accelerate investor protection measures was made due to the rapid growth in market capitalization and trading volume of these products since their launch on May 27, and the increased volatility in the stock prices of major memory chip companies.Data shows that the total market capitalization of the 16 single-stock leveraged products currently on the market has grown from 4.4 trillion KRW on May 27 to 11.9 trillion KRW on July 15, and their trading volume has also risen from 10.4 trillion KRW to 13 trillion KRW. Under previous regulations, individual investors purchasing single-stock leveraged products were required to meet a base deposit requirement of 10 million KRW, which could be fulfilled using converted assets such as stocks, ETFs, and bonds. After the new regulations take effect, the base deposit standard is raised to 30 million KRW, and only cash assets will be accepted, with securities-type assets no longer eligible for conversion.Furthermore, proceeds from securities sales will only be counted towards the base deposit after settlement is completed on T+2 and funds are actually credited. Loan amounts secured by using sold funds as collateral will also not be included in the deposit scope. The FSC stated that this aims to curb investors' high-frequency circular trading behavior of selling positions and immediately repurchasing leveraged products on the same day.For existing investors adding to their positions, the 30 million KRW cash deposit standard also applies, but sell operations are not subject to the deposit limit.Previously, on July 16, Korean financial authorities had suspended the new listing of single-stock leveraged ETFs/ETNs and restricted related advertising. Going forward, they also plan to strengthen the product premium rate management mechanism, shorten the designation process for investment warning items, and promote adjustments to trading units.The FSC stated that it will continue to monitor the market trends of related products. If the market overheating phenomenon is not alleviated, it will consider taking further supplementary measures. (Chosun)

Whale "First Set Ten Big Goals": It Will Become Increasingly Rare to See Bitcoin Below $60,000 in the Future

the whale "First Set Ten Big Goals" posted on platform X, stating that after closing their short position, they quickly re-established a long position because their medium-to-long-term outlook has not changed. They believe the key demarcation zone of the previous bull market was around $60,000, and currently, the mainstream mining cost for Bitcoin is roughly concentrated in the $50,000 to $60,000 range. Last month, Bitcoin quickly recovered after dipping to a low of $58,000, validating the support level in this area. They believe that, barring systemic risks or major fundamental changes, the risk-reward ratio of continuing to short at the current level is not favorable. After Bitcoin completed its consolidation and hand-changing in the $58,000 to $63,000 range, it finished its correction and firmly re-established support around $66,000. The market now has the conditions for further upward movement, and they do not rule out the possibility of a strong bullish candle pushing Bitcoin past $72,000.They also stated that the current valuation of the US stock market, especially the AI-related sectors, is relatively high, which could lead to increased volatility in the future. Furthermore, the correlation between Bitcoin and US stocks has significantly decreased compared to previous cycles. With continued institutional capital inflows and the strengthening of Bitcoin's asset attributes, Bitcoin is gradually forging its own independent market trend..
