Sky (formerly MakerDAO), in collaboration with Spark and Uniswap, announced that the initial 150 million in liquidity for FX Layer, a stablecoin exchange system jointly developed by the three parties, is entirely sourced from the Sky ecosystem's stablecoin USDS. As the platform's core pricing asset, USDS provides base liquidity for USDS/USDT and USDS/PYUSD trading pools, marking the first large-scale implementation of this shared liquidity framework.The long-term plan for the three parties is to introduce institutions engaged in stablecoin operations, such as PayPal's PYUSD, Ripple's RLUSD, Robinhood, and Revolut, to access the unified infrastructure. This eliminates the need for each issuer to independently build liquidity pools and market-making systems. Simultaneously, a governance mechanism will be established to allow idle funds not involved in market-making to generate ongoing returns.Looking back to June 25th, Spark and Uniswap officially announced the launch of FX Layer. The division of roles is clear: Spark acts as the orchestration layer to allocate cross-stablecoin liquidity, while Uniswap v4 executes transaction paths via its programmable AMM mechanism through the DualPool hook.

Base has officially released an analysis report on the block production outage, disclosing that the Base mainnet experienced two block production interruptions on June 25 and 26, lasting 116 minutes and 20 minutes respectively. On-chain asset security was unaffected, and funds remained safe at all times. The root cause was a vulnerability in the sequencer's block construction logic: after a transaction execution failure, the old journal state was not properly cleared, causing subsequent legitimate transactions to encounter gas calculation errors during execution, thereby generating invalid state transition blocks and halting block production on the entire L2 chain.Base stated that the issue has been resolved through a patch, and will strengthen the protocol's fuzz testing and stress testing framework to identify potential malicious transaction paths, while optimizing monitoring and operational processes. Additionally, plans are in place to introduce a recovery mechanism to enhance rapid recovery capabilities in future similar events.

According to a notice on the SEC’s official website, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) jointly issued a request for public comment on June 26 seeking input on further harmonizing the portfolio margining regulatory framework for securities, security-based swaps, futures, swaps, and related positions. The two agencies stated that this initiative aims to assess whether greater coordination could enhance risk management efficiency, reduce market fragmentation, and strengthen customer protection. The scope of the request for comment covers multiple topics, including existing margin methodologies, cross-product offsetting, capital and collateral treatment, clearinghouse considerations, and technical implementation. SEC Chair Paul S. Atkins stated that further harmonization of the framework could prevent jurisdictional overlap from impeding innovation and efficiency, and cross-margining mechanisms could unlock liquidity currently locked in segregated accounts. CFTC Chair Mike Selig also noted that enhanced interagency cooperation would help release underutilized capital and build a more robust risk management system. The public comment period will remain open for 60 days following publication in the <i>Federal Register</i>.
