According to the public register of the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) Financial Services Regulatory Authority, Nest Trading Limited—the introducing broker responsible for Binance’s U.S. equities trading services—is a Binance-affiliated entity, and its official website URL listed in the register directly points to Binance.
According to CoinTelegraph, Kraken announced on May 30 that it plans to launch CFTC-regulated Bitcoin perpetual futures contracts via its subsidiary Bitnomial exchange within the next 30 days, targeting U.S. institutional clients. Earlier the same day, the CFTC formally approved perpetual futures contracts linked to the Bitcoin spot price, with KalshiEX becoming the first exchange to receive approval for listing such products. Meanwhile, Coinbase Financial Markets swiftly followed suit, leveraging Deribit—the world’s largest crypto options exchange, which it acquired in August 2025—to provide U.S. institutional clients with access to global crypto options and perpetual futures markets.
“New Stock God” Serenity posted on X, seemingly responding to the potential investigation into Sivers, stating that Sivers (SIVE) should fully transform into a U.S. company, with Nasdaq listing as the first step—given that the company already possesses a U.S. capital structure, a significant equity stake, and support under the CHIPS Act. Such a transformation would deliver higher valuation premiums and M&A opportunities. Meanwhile, negative reporting by Swedish local media—allegedly influenced by short sellers—is hindering the development of AI photonics, whereas the U.S. market offers greater financing opportunities and support from institutions, funds, and indices.
According to Cointelegraph, U.S. Senator Cynthia Lummis stated that if Congress fails to pass the digital asset market structure bill—the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (the “CLARITY Act”)—the United States risks falling behind other countries, including China, in leadership on crypto regulation. She noted that enacting a comprehensive crypto regulatory framework would help ensure that other nations do not write the rules for the next era of finance. Earlier, in May, the Senate Banking Committee voted to advance the bill; however, it still requires passage by both chambers of Congress and the President’s signature before becoming law.
: Jonas Myrdal, a prosecutor at the Swedish Economic Crime Authority, stated that regarding a post on social platform X about Sivers Semiconductors (SIVE) considering a dual listing in the US leaking out early and being officially confirmed by the company approximately 48 hours later, he believes this is not a coincidence but highly likely involves an information leak.Jonas Myrdal pointed out that the relevant information was published and continuously promoted on platform X by an anonymous account with approximately 200,000 followers before its official disclosure. This subsequently triggered a sharp, several-fold increase in the company's stock price within a short period. This behavior pattern is similar to a previous case involving "pump-and-dump" manipulation, in which three individuals were convicted of serious market manipulation offenses. He further recommended that Nasdaq should investigate this incident and assess whether it violates the EU Market Abuse Regulation (MAR). Currently, the source of the suspected information leak is still under investigation.Previously, "New Stock God" Serenity posted on platform X seemingly "touting" Sivers, and stated that after further reviewing Sivers Semiconductors' latest earnings conference call, they are optimistic about its prospects. The company's management indicated that "in a super-cycle where demand far exceeds supply, viewing ecosystem partners as competitors is not the correct approach," reflecting the current strong demand in the photonics industry. Additionally, the photonics business pipeline has grown rapidly over the past five months, driving an overall revenue pipeline increase of 77%. (Marketscreener)
digital asset management firm Grayscale stated in its latest report that the decentralized trading platform Hyperliquid is rapidly evolving from a crypto perpetual contract exchange into a blockchain-based financial infrastructure platform. In the future, it may even challenge the traditional derivatives trading and exchange systems, growing into a "financial services giant."The report shows that Hyperliquid generated approximately $800 million in revenue in 2025, with a full-year perpetual contract trading volume of about $2.9 trillion and open interest of roughly $7 billion, capturing a significant share of the crypto derivatives market. Grayscale believes the platform is no longer limited to crypto trading. Through the HIP-3 and HIP-4 systems, it is expanding into tokenized stocks, commodities, and prediction markets, gradually building a 24/7 on-chain trading infrastructure.In another report, FalconX also pointed out that Hyperliquid is competing with traditional derivatives exchanges like the CME Group, as well as prediction market platforms such as Kalshi and Polymarket, and is making progress in new markets like Pre-IPO.The report also emphasized that regulation remains a key variable. Although Hyperliquid currently restricts access for US users, as the regulatory framework gradually clarifies and institutions like Coinbase, Robinhood, and Kraken explore perpetual contract products, this sector may see broader growth potential in the future.

Odaily Planet Daily reports: Multicoin Capital co-founder Kyle Samani posted on X platform analyzing three possible scenarios for the development of Kalshi and the US crypto perpetual contract market:1. Kalshi's previous efforts are irrelevant: Because the US market itself can already offer unregulated perpetual contracts.2. Protocols must pass the eight decentralized tests of the CLARITY Act: If the CLARITY Act passes smoothly, protocols can offer perpetual contracts in the US without registering as a DCO (Designated Contract Organizer) and DCM (Designated Contract Market).3. Products can still attract users but cannot legally enter the US financial system: Even with user recognition, protocols may still be unable to distribute within a compliant framework.Analysis suggests that these potential outcomes highlight the complex relationship between current US derivatives regulation and decentralized protocols, as well as the uncertainty surrounding the compliant implementation of innovative financial products.
: John Wang, head of Kalshi's crypto business, posted on X platform, saying in a joking tone that "Kalshi is not a cryptocurrency company."John Wang stated that Kalshi is the first regulated platform in the United States to legally offer crypto perpetual contract trading; cryptocurrency-related prediction market trading volume accounts for approximately 70% of the platform's total trading volume, making it the second-largest business category. Meanwhile, Kalshi also serves as a liquidity layer for Coinbase and Phantom's frontend, and only accepts cryptocurrency for international deposits.He once again joked at the end: "That's right, Kalshi is not a cryptocurrency company."
U.S. SEC Chairman Paul S. Atkins stated at the 2026 Reagan National Economic Forum that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is advancing a "New Era SEC" regulatory reform, focusing on modernizing digital asset regulation, promoting on-chain capital market development, and supporting the U.S. in becoming a "global crypto hub."Paul Atkins criticized the SEC's previous "regulatory hostility" towards the digital asset industry, alleging that much crypto innovation was forced to relocate overseas. He stated that with the support of the Trump administration, the SEC has launched "Project Crypto" and is collaborating with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to promote on-chain market infrastructure and harmonize crypto regulation. The SEC has recently clarified which digital assets are securities and which are not, and is advancing an innovative exemption mechanism for "tokenized listed securities," while studying how on-chain trading systems can fit within existing regulatory frameworks.Additionally, Paul Atkins emphasized that the SEC will reduce "over-disclosure" and regulatory burdens, promote "Make IPOs Great Again" reforms, including lowering compliance costs for listed companies, increasing IPO flexibility, and formally proposing to repeal the climate disclosure rules introduced under the previous administration. The future of U.S. capital markets should be built on a "free market and innovation-driven" foundation, where the regulator's role is to provide clear rules and legal certainty, not to suppress technological development.
Michael Saylor posted on platform X, stating that CFTC guidelines are driving the development of the Bitcoin capital market, including 24/7 trading, BTC collateral, perpetual futures, options, and regulated access. This will benefit BTC holders, power the MSTR engine, and support the development of STRC as Bitcoin-backed digital credit.
Odaily News, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Market Participants Division today issued an interpretive opinion and a "No-Action Letter" in response to an application from Coinbase Financial Markets, allowing it to offer trading services for certain digital commodity derivatives through its affiliated offshore trading platform, Deribit. CFTC staff confirmed that, based on the framework approved for Kalshi's BTCPERP contract on May 29, 2026, relevant crypto perpetual contracts can be classified as "foreign futures" as defined under Regulation 30.1.Simultaneously, under the fulfillment of specific conditions, the CFTC's Market Participants Division stated it does not recommend enforcement action against Coinbase Financial Markets. This allows Coinbase to transfer customer-held digital commodities and stablecoins, used as margin, to its affiliated offshore broker-dealer to support trading positions in foreign futures and options, even if the relevant offshore broker-dealer has the right to rehypothecate these assets.Analysts believe this statement further clarifies the classification path for crypto perpetual contracts within the U.S. regulatory framework and provides institutional space for compliant entities to access derivatives trading through offshore liquidity markets.
According to CoinDesk, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) approved, for the first time on May 29 local time, a regulated exchange to list and trade Bitcoin perpetual futures contracts (“Perps”), marking the first such case in U.S. regulatory history. CFTC Chair Mike Selig characterized this move as a “significant milestone,” stating that perpetual contracts serve as foundational risk-management and price-discovery tools in global crypto-asset markets, and that the CFTC will provide an actionable regulatory framework for such contracts while restricting excessive leverage and systemic risk. Previously, perpetual contract trading had long migrated to non-U.S. jurisdictions due to the absence of regulatory oversight. The CFTC has not yet disclosed the names of the first batch of approved exchanges, and this policy has not yet been elevated to the level of formal regulation—meaning it remains subject to potential reversal in the future.
the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) departments, including Market Oversight, Clearing and Risk, jointly issued staff guidance outlining regulatory expectations and compliance requirements for the growing 24/7 trading, clearing, and settlement model in the markets, encouraging market innovation while ensuring compliance.The guidance emphasizes that regulated trading platforms, swap execution facilities, derivatives clearing organizations, and futures commission merchants must comply with the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) and relevant regulatory rules when expanding to 24/7 trading, and must proactively assess risk management and operational arrangements.The CFTC noted that different asset classes have varying suitability for 24/7 trading. Derivatives related to crypto assets, due to their digital infrastructure and global continuous trading characteristics, are more suitable for around-the-clock trading and clearing. In contrast, traditional commodity derivatives such as agricultural products, due to their regional and trading structure characteristics, may not be fully suited for 24/7 operations.CFTC staff stated that relevant institutions should ensure they meet the regulatory framework and risk control requirements while promoting continuous market evolution, in order to support "responsible market innovation."
Odaily News “1011 Insider Whale” agent Garrett Jin pointed out in his latest market commentary that, against the backdrop of the Middle East conflict, the Strait of Hormuz has been effectively “blockaded” for three months. However, the market has already become “desensitized” to this geopolitical risk, and the AI narrative is reshaping traditional risk pricing logic. As a result, AI is significantly weakening the market's sensitivity to oil prices and geopolitical shocks. Since the emergence of ceasefire signals, U.S. stocks have “decoupled” from energy shocks, with gains in chip and tech stocks offsetting the impact from the energy sector, leading the market to gradually overlook the Strait of Hormuz risk. Nevertheless, he cautioned that the AI sector faces short-term risks of overvaluation and crowded trades, and a pullback could occur at any time.In the energy market, the earlier assessment that the Strait of Hormuz risk had not been fully priced in has proven correct. Oil prices had risen due to supply shock expectations, but peaked and then declined following the release of strategic reserves and the U.S. intervention as a “supplier of last resort.” A successful exit was achieved on April 29-30. He believes the current risk-reward ratio for oil prices is no longer attractive.On the macro and equity market front, U.S. households' holdings of stocks as a percentage of financial assets have reached approximately 47%, surpassing the level seen during the internet bubble era. This means a market downturn would, in turn, constrain policy. The VIX volatility index triggered different policy shift thresholds around 30 and 50, reflecting a “risk-off driven policy” characteristic.In the gold market, the recent pullback in gold is not due to the fading of a war premium but rather changes in long-term structural demand. Since 2022, central banks globally have been purchasing gold at an average annual rate of over a thousand tons, primarily for de-dollarization and hedging against sanctions risks. He defines gold as “an ultimate exit tool outside the dollar system” rather than a mere safe-haven asset.In the crypto market, the liquidity inflection point occurred last October, with funds flowing more toward AI assets, leading to a periodic drain from the crypto market. However, he believes the market is currently in a cyclical bear phase. Rebound rallies exist, but they do not equate to the start of a new bull run. The market must wait for liquidity to restart in a new cycle. The AI era is emerging as the dominant capital narrative. Even if a bubble exists, the structural opportunities it brings represent “a rare window of opportunity for ordinary investors.” Nevertheless, market cycle discipline should not be overlooked.
Odaily报道, “BTC OG insider whale” Garrett Jin has released his “Weekly Market Strategy Signal.” In his analysis, he points out that the current geopolitical situation and the trajectory of the US dollar are deadlocked: despite US strikes on Iranian-related targets, tensions in the Strait of Hormuz remain unresolved. Although US Secretary of State Rubio signaled “positive news,” the peace agreement proposed by Iran has already been vetoed by the White House.Long-term US Treasury yields continue to hover in the 5.07% – 5.18% range, reaching their highest levels in 19 years. The S&P 500 index briefly hit a new high before quickly pulling back. Garrett Jin believes that a single positive or negative catalyst is insufficient to change the market landscape. Only when at least two of the three key factors—the credit environment, Federal Reserve policy, and geopolitical conditions—converge can the market experience a substantial shift.On another front, capital expenditure in the AI sector is accelerating its shift from the United States to Asia. ByteDance plans to increase its capital expenditure to as high as $70 billion this year, while Tencent and Alibaba are also ramping up their investments. Competition in the AI arena has now escalated to the level of national competition.

TD Cowen stated President Trump’s public support for the CFTC’s stance on regulating prediction markets is unlikely to alter the legal debate surrounding event contracts. TD Cowen Managing Director Jaret Seiberg noted that the matter is now in federal court and cannot be decided by regulatory agencies or the executive branch. He still believes the Supreme Court will ultimately rule on whether Congress, in creating event contracts, preempts state sports betting laws. He added that states still hold the advantage in this debate, and litigation may take two years or more. Seiberg also pointed out that Trump’s post was more about defending CFTC Chairman Selig following a New York Times investigative report, rather than a substantive policy change. (TheBlock)
Trump stated at today's Cabinet meeting that the U.S. economy has continued to improve under his administration, emphasizing that ordinary families, pension accounts, and capital markets have all benefited.Trump said that this year, the average tax refund for ordinary American families is "close to $5,000," and noted that since he took office, the U.S. stock market has hit 68 record highs.He also mentioned that the average growth of Americans' 401(k) retirement accounts is nearly $30,000, adding, "The Americans are benefiting."Market analysts believe that the Trump administration has been steadily reinforcing the "economy and market performance" narrative, seeking to highlight the positive impacts of rising capital markets, growing household wealth, and tax policies.

during a recent Senate Banking Committee hearing, substantial progress was achieved in advancing the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (CLARITY Act). The bill passed with a 15-9 vote, moving to the full Senate for consideration.Several bipartisan lawmakers emphasized during the discussions that the United States urgently needs to establish a unified regulatory framework for digital assets, clarifying asset classification, trading platform oversight, and market structure rules to provide long-term certainty for the industry. Angela Alsobrooks pointed out from a family perspective that younger generations show a natural interest in digital assets, and the regulatory system should strike a balance between "opportunity and protection" to prevent technological development from escaping regulatory oversight. Tim Scott stressed the need to advance legislation from the standpoint of economic opportunity and the American Dream, while Cynthia Lummis noted that the legislative process has already demonstrated a clear foundation for bipartisan cooperation.Supporters argue that digital assets have become an irreversible trend, with approximately 68 million Americans currently holding related assets. However, a significant volume of transactions still occur on overseas platforms, underscoring the urgent need for the U.S. to establish a domestic regulatory framework to enhance market transparency and investor protection. Analysts point out that the CLARITY Act is seen as a crucial complement following stablecoin-related legislation (the GENIUS Act). Without supporting rules at the market structure level, the U.S. risks losing its dominant position in the competition for digital financial infrastructure.As the bill advances to the full Senate, observers are closely watching whether it can complete final legislation based on bipartisan consensus, thereby establishing the core rules of the U.S. digital asset regulatory framework.
