tokenized sovereign debt startup M1X Global has completed a $5.5 million seed funding round, led by Paradigm, with participation from Breed VC and others.It is understood that M1X Global previously collaborated with the Republic of the Marshall Islands to assist in the issuance of the on-chain sovereign debt instrument USDM1. This product is a dollar-denominated tokenized sovereign debt instrument, 1:1 backed by U.S. Treasury bonds, and natively issued on a public blockchain by a sovereign nation. USDM1 was initially issued on Stellar and is now also available on Canton and Solana.Jordan Goldman, President and COO of M1X, stated that sovereign debt is one of the largest asset classes globally, but prior to USDM1, it did not exist in a native on-chain form. The company aims to establish USDM1 as on-chain sovereign collateral and expand its use within regulated financial markets.The initial application scenario for USDM1 is domestic government aid distribution. Citizens of the Marshall Islands can receive funds via the Lomalo wallet, with payments settling in seconds, bypassing the need for traditional correspondent banking networks. M1X also indicated that its recent integration with Bank of Guam, a U.S. FDIC-insured bank, further connects USDM1 to regulated banking infrastructure. (The Block)

Fox Business crypto journalist posted on X, stating that following the release of President Trump's financial disclosure documents, Senator Gillibrand has again called for advancing ethics reform to prohibit the President, members of Congress, and their spouses from issuing or sponsoring digital assets. The financial disclosure documents show that President Trump earned over $600 million from his Solana meme coin in 2025. This announcement comes amid increased scrutiny of Senator Gillibrand's long-standing position on strengthening ethics rules, following previous reports that her son had raised funds to plan the launch of a crypto derivatives exchange.
According to The Block, tokenization leader Securitize (stock ticker: SECZ) officially listed on the New York Stock Exchange on July 2 local time, with an opening price of $12.45, an intraday high of $13.70, and a closing price of $12.30. Meanwhile, Securitize simultaneously launched tokenized stocks on the Solana and Avalanche chains, becoming the first company to achieve "traditional market + on-chain" dual-track issuance on the first day of listing, supporting 24/7 trading. Securitize President Brett Redfearn stated that the company is actively negotiating with the capital markets departments of major investment banks such as JPMorgan Chase, and plans to distribute IPO shares in tokenized form to crypto wallets such as MetaMask and OKX within the next 3 to 6 months.
According to CoinDesk, Wall Street bank Cantor Fitzgerald issued a research report indicating that the crypto market is entering the final phase of the current bear cycle. As of June 10, Bitcoin has declined approximately 51% from its 2025 peak, with 252 days having passed since the peak. Synthesizing the past three market cycles, BTC bottoms on average 384 days after the peak; based on this, the low point of this cycle is projected to appear around the end of October. Analysts also noted that the model is not a precise timing tool, and macro, regulatory, and geopolitical risks remain. Regarding network value assessment, Cantor believes Hyperliquid is the prime example of fee-driven token economics, Bitcoin remains the benchmark monetary asset, and Ethereum serves as the primary collateral layer for on-chain finance; Solana, Sui, XRP, and Zcash each possess differentiated advantages, but still need to prove that their ecosystem growth can translate into sustained token demand.
Streamex Corp. announced that its gold-backed, tokenized yield-bearing security, GLDY, is now available for purchase through standard brokerage accounts. The product is distributed by Siebert Financial, a FINRA member broker-dealer, and custodied on the regulated digital securities platform tZERO. Streamex is offering the product to qualified investors. GLDY offers an annualized yield of up to approximately 3.5%, distributed monthly in the form of additional gold. The yield is generated by lending the underlying metal to commercial users such as jewelers, mints, and refiners. Streamex stated that GLDY was launched in February and began 24/7 secondary trading in May on Orca, a decentralized exchange on Solana. GLDY is currently available only to verified qualified investors as a regulated security. Streamex is building a tokenization platform for real-world assets and plans to launch a digital gold product for retail investors, which is expected to be tradable on decentralized exchanges like Jupiter, Meteora, and Orca.

zero-knowledge scaling company StarkWare has released a Starknet quantum resistance roadmap, stating that the roadmap is divided into three phases to address the risk of future quantum computing attacks. StarkWare CEO Eli Ben-Sasson stated that Starknet can leverage its architectural advantages to achieve quantum resistance, as its underlying cryptography is based on zero-knowledge STARK proofs. According to reports, the first phase of the roadmap includes replacing part of the existing secure mathematical mechanism, Pedersen hash, with a quantum-resistant version, and adding quantum-resistant signatures; the second phase focuses on migration tools, upgrading existing smart contracts without requiring developers to manually rebuild applications; the third phase involves dependencies that Starknet cannot solve alone, primarily relying on Ethereum's quantum upgrade roadmap. Circle, Ethereum, Solana, Tezos, and Algorand have all proposed quantum resistance roadmaps. (Cointelegraph)
Ansem posted on X, stating that his past judgments regarding celebrity participation in crypto projects were overly idealistic. He had assumed they would not "rug" millions of supporters, but this assumption has been proven wrong by reality, and he stated he will not make the same judgment error in the future.However, Ansem emphasized that he is not a celebrity himself and has no intention of exiting a project improperly. He believes that Meme and narrative-based tokens may still play a "net positive" role in the crypto market, including attracting new users into the industry, providing speculative liquidity for the market, and reactivating market sentiment during bear market bottoms.Using Dogecoin and Bonk as examples, he stated that such assets have brought large-scale user adoption and wealth effects in different cycles. Dogecoin's market cap once reached $11 billion, while Bonk helped revive sentiment within the Solana ecosystem during the低迷 period following the FTX collapse.Ansem also mentioned that he entered the crypto industry in 2017, quit his job as a software engineer in 2021, and is currently co-founding the trading application BullpenFi while hosting the podcast project MarketBubble. He noted that he has participated in discussions on multiple Meme coins in the past, but often encountered anonymous accounts using liquidity structures to front-run and then "dump" on the opposite side, making him a tool for attention. He emphasized that his current project is the first time he is participating with "control over the majority of the token supply" and stated that he will attempt to find a balance between market attention and industry building.
blockchain analytics platform Bubblemaps released an investigation report on the Solana Meme token LIBRA. On February 14, 2025, after Argentine President Javier Milei publicly supported the launch of LIBRA, the token's market cap briefly reached approximately $4 billion in less than two days before rapidly crashing, resulting in investor losses exceeding $250 million. The incident has been dubbed "Cryptogate."Bubblemaps stated that multiple abnormal signals emerged within the first hour of LIBRA's launch:82% of the token supply was concentrated in a single wallet cluster, a stark deviation from typical Meme token issuance patterns;No tokenomics information was provided, with no details on lock-ups, fund allocation, or roadmap disclosed;Abnormally high liquidity pool fees were generated, with over $25 million in fees accumulating within the first hour of trading, far exceeding normal retail trading levels.The investigation revealed that the deployer did not directly dump $LIBRA on the open market. Instead, they added a one-sided liquidity pool containing only $LIBRA on Meteora while simultaneously withdrawing USDC and SOL from the original pool, enabling low-slippage fund transfers. Bubblemaps noted that, by the time the public warning was issued, the team had already extracted approximately $87 million in assets through this mechanism. Subsequently, Bubblemaps discovered a financial link between LIBRA and another controversial token, $MELANIA. Through on-chain evidence such as cross-chain transfers and overlapping exchange deposit addresses, analytic firms suggest both projects may be operated by the same team, which has been traced back to Kelsier Ventures and its head, Hayden Davis.The report indicates that this team has subsequently been linked to multiple Meme token projects, including $HOOD, $TRUST, $KACY, and $VIBES. Their common pattern includes: holding a large concentration of tokens during the deployment phase, using multiple wallets to front-run purchases, rapidly inflating market cap, and then exiting to cash out.Bubblemaps stated that the uniqueness of the LIBRA incident lies not in its technical methods, but in securing the public endorsement of Javier Milei, which amplified a routine Meme token operation into a globally watched event. The firm believes that indicators such as wallet cluster analysis, supply concentration, and on-chain fund flows had already flashed risk signals early on, and it will continue to monitor related address activity in the future.

Odaily reports: Blockchain data infrastructure startup Cambrian has secured $6 million in seed funding, co-led by Franklin Templeton and Polychain Capital, with participation from Flow Traders, Selini Capital, Paper Ventures, Nomad Capital, and others.As previously reported by Odaily, Cambrian also received a $5.9 million pre-seed investment led by the a16z Crypto Startup Accelerator, bringing its total funding to $11.9 million.Founded in 2024, Cambrian currently offers APIs for institutions and AI agents, providing real-time and historical on-chain data covering yield, risk, lending rates, trading activity, liquidity positions, and market sentiment, helping users allocate capital on-chain. The company plans to expand its existing APIs into a verifiable blockchain data oracle network, serving institutional financial clients, AI agent builders, and protocols that require reliable data to control capital flows. Unlike traditional oracles that primarily provide price data, Cambrian aims to aggregate data from lending protocols, DEX liquidity, social sentiment, developer activity, and historical market data.According to Cambrian, its platform has processed millions of API calls, currently indexes approximately $4.5 billion in TVL across four major lending protocols, tracks 1,789 vaults managed by 895 curators, and monitors over 320,000 DEX liquidity pools on Base and Solana. The company also plans to expand trading data support by integrating Hyperliquid and richer perpetual contract data.
According to Crypto in America, the National District Attorneys Association, the National Association of Assistant U.S. Attorneys, the International Association of Chiefs of Police, and the National Sheriffs’ Association jointly sent a letter to Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and Patrick Witt, Executive Director of the White House Crypto Council, expressing strong opposition to Section 604 of the “Clarity Act”—the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act (BRCA). Law enforcement groups argue that this provision could create regulatory loopholes exploitable by criminals for illicit activities including drug trafficking, fraud, child exploitation, sanctions evasion, and terrorist financing. Meanwhile, cryptocurrency-backed candidates achieved sweeping victories in primary elections across Maryland, New York, and Utah. Fairshake—a pro-crypto super PAC—has collectively spent over $7.6 million supporting these candidates, including $5.5 million backing Adrian Boafo, the candidate for Maryland’s 5th congressional district. Miller Whitehouse-Levine, founder of the Solana Policy Institute, warned that August 7, 2026, may be the final window for Congress to pass cryptocurrency market structure legislation. He stated that the industry is willing to make limited revisions to the BRCA provisions to address law enforcement concerns—but firmly opposes any fundamental changes that would weaken the core protections enshrined in the provision. Additionally, the House Financial Services Committee held a hearing on “The Future of Payments” the same day.
