Odaily Planet Daily reported that the "People's Republic of China People's Bank of China Law (Revised Draft)" was submitted for the first deliberation at the 23rd session of the Standing Committee of the 14th National People's Congress on June 23, 2026. For the first time, "clarifying the legal status of digital RMB" has been written into the revised draft.The report states that a 2020 draft for public comment merely proposed that "RMB includes both physical and digital forms." This revision further elevates the legal positioning of digital RMB.Additionally, the 2020 draft for public comment also stipulated that no unit or individual may produce or issue token vouchers or digital tokens to circulate in place of RMB. For related violations, the People's Bank of China has the authority to order a halt, destroy illegally produced or issued token vouchers and digital tokens, confiscate illegal gains, and impose a fine of up to five times the illegal amount.

According to PYMNTS, on June 22, the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) issued a proposed rulemaking requiring payment stablecoin issuers (PPSIs) under its supervision to comply with provisions of the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) and the GENIUS Act, and mandating that they implement anti-money laundering/combating the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) programs, sanctions programs, and reporting requirements administered by the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) and the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC). The rule would also establish an OCC supervisory and enforcement framework for PPSIs’ AML/CFT obligations and clarify coordination mechanisms between the OCC and FinCEN in enforcement actions. Previously, the OCC had jointly sought public comment with the Federal Reserve, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), and the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) regarding requirements for stablecoin issuers to establish customer identification programs.
According to Wintermute’s market weekly report, a significant macroeconomic shift occurred during the week ending June 22: The U.S. Federal Reserve held its benchmark interest rate steady at 3.50%–3.75%, but its statement adopted markedly tighter language—removing all references to accommodative policy. The median dot-plot projection rose from 3.4% to 3.8%, and 17 of the 18 FOMC members assessed inflation risks as skewed upward. The probability of a December rate hike surged from roughly 24% one month earlier to approximately 77%. Meanwhile, the Iran nuclear deal—originally scheduled for signing on June 19—collapsed following Israeli airstrikes on Lebanon, prompting Iran to withdraw from negotiations. Qatar is now attempting to extend talks until the end of June. With U.S. equity markets closed for Juneteenth, they failed to react promptly; crypto markets bore the brunt first—BTC peaked near $67,000 midweek before retreating to around $62,000, posting a weekly decline of 3.8%; ETH once again fell below $2,000, dropping into the mid-$1,700 range, down 1.2% for the week; over the weekend, approximately $600 million in long positions were liquidated, while less than $90 million in short positions were cleared—highlighting persistent leverage imbalance. Wintermute noted that the narrative of forced selling by “Strategy” players has dissipated (net BTC purchases totaled 1,587 BTC between June 8–14), yet marginal demand from both ETFs and Strategy participants has clearly weakened compared to prior periods. Capital inflow channels remain unopened, and the market is stabilizing primarily under light positioning and low leverage.

Masayoshi Son, founder of SoftBank Group, stated at the annual general meeting of SoftBank's Japanese telecom business unit on June 23 that building data centers in space holds almost no practical value, and the outcome of future AI competition will still be determined by computing infrastructure on land. Responding to a shareholder's question about whether SoftBank would follow Musk's lead in constructing space data centers, Son explicitly opposed the idea. He pointed out that while space data centers are believed to reduce electricity costs, power expenses account for only a small fraction of a data center's operating costs compared to core hardware like chips. Conversely, deploying data centers in space would also entail high rocket transportation costs, maintenance difficulties, and communication latency issues.Son emphasized that in the AI industry competition, development in the coming years is far more crucial than visions for a decade later. SoftBank will focus on building robust data center infrastructure on land and adhere to a "first-mover advantage" strategy.Additionally, SoftBank's Japanese telecom business unit is planning to enter the U.S. market for a new type of cloud computing tailored for AI (Neocloud).
