Binance bStocks has become the second-largest tokenized stock issuer by market value, reaching $610.6 million and capturing 22.1% of the sector.
The product has moved ahead of Backed’s xStocks, which now holds $601.2 million after nearly a year in second place. Token Terminal data shows Ondo Finance remains the market leader with $951.8 million and a 34.4% share. The tokenized stock market is now valued at roughly $2.8 billion.

Binance bStocks Expands Rapidly Through Exchange Distribution
Binance launched bStocks on June 11, and the product moved into second place within nine weeks. Its growth has outpaced a rival that had established distribution across several chains and platforms.
The gap between bStocks and xStocks shows how quickly rankings have changed. Less than $10 million currently separates the two products by market capitalization.
Distribution has played a role in bStocks’ expansion. The tokens trade inside the Binance application as standard USDT spot pairs, giving existing exchange users access.
A customer with funds held on Binance can buy tokenized Nvidia shares through the same process used to purchase SOL. This removes the need for bridging assets or completing a separate onboarding process.
Conversion Structure Supports Easier Access and Reversibility
The conversion process adds another layer of accessibility. Investors holding the underlying share through Nest Trading can convert that position into a bStock at a one-to-one ratio without paying a fee.
The same process also works in reverse. Holders can convert bStocks back into the underlying shares without locking assets in either direction.
The broader tokenized stock market has also expanded sharply. Its value stood at $569.76 million at the start of the year and has since risen to about $2.8 billion, representing growth of roughly 391%.
During the same period, xStocks grew by around 228%. Its market share declined because the total market expanded faster, while Binance captured a large portion of new issuance.
Issuance Rankings Reflect Minted Value Rather Than Trading
Ondo Finance follows a different operating model. It mints tokenized assets through external company interfaces, including Binance, rather than owning the venue where users access them.
Kraken offers a closer structural comparison because it owns Backed while also operating an exchange. That arrangement combines issuance and distribution under one organization, although Kraken’s user base is smaller.
Market capitalization by issuer measures how much tokenized stock has been minted, not how frequently those tokens trade. A token held in a wallet counts the same as one traded daily.
Binance entered the market with an existing account base and placed tokenized stocks directly inside that distribution network. Current data therefore shows rapid issuance growth, while trading activity remains a separate measure.

Hyperliquid has ramped up its lobbying of U.S. regulators in search of a compliant way to bring perpetual futures to the country. The Information reporter, Yueqi Yang, who interviewed Hyperliquid Policy Center on the matter, revealed that the perp exchange “has stepped up outreach to U.S. regulators as it looks for a path to U.S. markets.”
Hyperliquid is currently not open to US users due to regulatory constraints. Perps are not banned outright in the United States, but they do not fit neatly under the Commodity Exchange Act, which sets the clearing, margin, and execution rules for derivatives traded on registered venues. That gap has fueled enforcement actions against both centralized and DeFi platforms offering off-exchange derivatives. Hyperliquid, while operating offshore, has been funding outreach to effect a regulation change that allows for a clear path to introduce perps in U.S. markets.
Hyperliquid pushes advocacy to launch perpetual futures in the US
According to the report, the Hyperliquid Policy Center, funded by the Hyper Foundation, has been running policy research and advocacy in Washington, D.C., with the aim of a regulated access framework for on-chain perpetual contracts and decentralized market infrastructure inside the United States. Both the CFTC and SEC “will have a big role to play in shaping some of the fastest-growing parts of crypto, such as perpetual futures and vaults, which aren’t covered by the Clarity Act,” according to Yang.
US regulators are already adjusting to accommodate perpetual-style products inside compliant structures. In May, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) approved the listing of a perpetual contract tied to the spot price of bitcoin, with plans to review perpetual contracts tied to other assets on a case-by-case basis. In June, the CFTC opened public comment on two proposed changes on 24/7 energy futures and perp contracts tied to oil, Cryptopolitan reported.
In other news, the crypto market saw a decline in perps volume in July, according to CryptoRank. Total centralized-exchange futures volume slid to $4.0 trillion in July, its lowest since December 2023 and down sharply from peaks above $10 trillion in late 2025. A similar trend was observed across the DEX perp markets. Monthly volume dropped by roughly 21% in July to $531 billion. The decline ended the two-month recovery from April, according to CryptoRank.

On Tuesday, OpenAI released a preview of a Linux desktop app for ChatGPT. It gives open-source developers access to ChatGPT, ChatGPT Work, and Codex. The company announced it in an August 11, 2026, post on X. The release completes OpenAI’s platform coverage, the company said.
“Linux has been one of the most-requested platforms for the desktop app, and this launch extends ChatGPT and Codex across every major desktop operating system,” the company said. OpenAI recommended users run ChatGPT, ChatGPT Work, and Codex “where you already work and build,” alongside their projects and browser workflows on supported systems.
OpenAI makes a list of supported systems
OpenAI lists Ubuntu 24.04 and 26.04 LTS, Debian 13, and Fedora 43 and 44 as supported desktop versions. They’re the base for many downstream flavors, so OpenAI expects a wider set of derivative desktops to run the apps too. Codex was first shipped about a year ago. It was designed for writing features, answering questions about a codebase, fixing bugs, and proposing pull requests.
OpenAI’s arrival came about a month after Anthropic, which already delivered a Claude desktop app for Linux. Anthropic supports Ubuntu 22.04 or later and Debian 12 or later, which is a slightly older baseline than OpenAI’s. In May, OpenAI introduced Codex on the ChatGPT mobile app. This launch came after Anthropic had already released the feature for Claude Code, as reported by Cryptopolitan.
This desktop release brings the same rivalry to the operating system that runs most developer servers and workstations. The Linux app also helps OpenAI’s plan to bring its products together. In March, the company confirmed it was building a single desktop application that would merge ChatGPT, Codex, and its Atlas web browser. That strategy has found its paid engine in Codex. It now has over 5 million weekly active users, most of them paying, compared to a ChatGPT base of about 1 billion mostly free users.

Metaplanet BTC transfers attracted attention after known wallets moved 4,176 BTC within hours.
The activity followed months of holding about 43,000 BTC across identified wallets. One wallet now retains 36,000 BTC from Metaplanet’s tracked holdings.
Metaplanet, traded as Nasdaq MTPLF, still controls the third-largest Bitcoin treasury among digital asset treasury companies. The company has not reported any Bitcoin sales. The transfers may represent an internal move, although treasury transactions remain watched during weak market conditions.
MARA Digital Holdings sold 23,093 BTC during the first half of 2026 after abandoning its strict holding policy. The strategy also sold Bitcoin to increase cash reserves despite earlier promises never to sell. It shifted toward dynamic treasury management and sold some Bitcoin below its average purchase price. Hut8 moved 493 BTC without explaining whether the transfer was internal or sale preparation.
Metaplanet BTC Holdings Face Market Pressure
Bitcoin traded near $63,792.22 on August 12 as sentiment remained fearful and spot demand stayed weak. Metaplanet continued buying Bitcoin as recently as July, adding 2,833 BTC in its latest purchase.
Fundraising has slowed alongside its treasury expansion. MTPLF shares are down more than 43% in 2026 and traded near all-time lows of 221 Japanese yen, or about $1.40. The stock has moved sideways or lower for several months.
Metaplanet’s average Bitcoin purchase price is $96,191. A sale near current levels would produce a loss exceeding 34%. In 2026, the company had about $280 million in cash reserves and around $403 million in liabilities.
Metaplanet has written off its losses while maintaining confidence in Bitcoin’s long-term performance. The latest movement is currently considered an internal storage shift rather than capitulation. Holding spot Bitcoin remains a treasury risk because of potential quantum attacks or wallet flaws. Metaplanet uses institutional-grade storage and multisignature wallets for security.
Metaplanet Targets Japanese Household Savings
Metaplanet has slowed debt-funded Bitcoin purchases but continues seeking liquidity to extend its treasury strategy. Chief Executive Simon Gerovich suggested Japanese households may need investments protecting savings against inflation.
Gerovich wrote on X that Metaplanet aims to build financial services for retail investors, without explicitly mentioning Bitcoin.
Metaplanet completed its latest debt raise in April 2026 through its twentieth series of ordinary bonds. It raised $50 million, mostly from EVO Fund, one of its major investors.
Metaplanet Funding Activity Has Recently Slowed
The company also raised $137 million overseas through common stock and warrants in early 2026. More recently, Metaplanet has not announced new funding rounds or additional liquidity sources.
The company has not disclosed any Bitcoin sale following the wallet movements. Its remaining holdings and recent purchases continue to define its treasury position while investors monitor the transferred coins.

Kazakhstan President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev has signed a decree exempting individuals from income tax on digital-asset gains for three years. The decree is expected to move an estimated 1 million crypto wallets off foreign platforms and onto licensed domestic exchanges.
President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev has signed a decree created by three bodies: the Ministry of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Development, the National Bank of Kazakhstan, and the Astana International Financial Centre (AIFC), which states that private investors will owe no personal income tax on gains from digital-asset transactions for three years. Assets linked to fraud, money laundering, or unlicensed crypto services are exempted from this decree.
Kazakhstan to draft a simplified tax law by 2029
The Vice Minister of AI and Digital Development in Kazakhstan, Gizzat Baitursynov, said his department is already drafting a simplified tax regime that will be implemented after the three-year window, and is separately working to cancel tax audits covering investors’ previous three years. AIFC data show that Kazakh citizens hold roughly 1 million crypto wallets, nearly four times the 256,900 users registered on authorized local exchanges as of March.
A previous Cryptopolitan report claimed that some 95% of the country’s crypto turnover was changing hands outside the regulated market, in peer-to-peer deals or on foreign platforms. In April, the Astana Financial Services Authority named HTX, Bitget, OKX, and MEXC as unlicensed operators, Cryptopolitan reported at the time. The decree also addresses the problem that broke the first mining boom in Kazakhstan: electricity. After China banned Bitcoin mining in 2021, the country became the second-largest mining hub after the United States.
Kazakhstan ranked third globally by hash rate in 2022, but that surge overwhelmed the country’s aging grid, and three power plants in the northeast shut down in an emergency in October 2021, triggering blackouts. Miners at their peak drew an estimated 8% of national electricity output. To keep new mining off the public grid, the order allows oil and gas fields to divert associated petroleum gas that the state does not need into autonomous generators for mining. A parallel “70/30” model gives data centers and miners direct access to up to 70% of new capacity built through infrastructure upgrades.
Nurkhat Kushimov, the general manager of Binance Kazakhstan, called the tax break the decree’s most important measure and said it makes licensed jurisdictions more attractive. Bakhytzhan Kenzhebayev, who chairs Kazakhstan’s Association of Fintech, AI and Crypto Industry, said the exemption removes a key uncertainty for investors. However, he warned that loose legal definitions could invite abuse and force a reversal within a year or two. Separately, the OECD’s Global Forum said Kazakhstan is implementing the Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework ahead of its first automatic exchanges of crypto tax data in 2027.

BRICS members are exploring plans to connect their CBDCs and fast payment systems, a move that could cut the cost of moving money between the bloc’s economies, Reserve Bank of India Governor Sanjay Malhotra said on Tuesday. Malhotra spoke at an event in Mumbai, where he described cross-border transfers as one of the priorities the group keeps returning to.
However, he cautioned that talks were at a very early stage. “Various options are on the table, but it is still at the discussion stage, including CBDCs (central bank digital currencies) and linkages of fast payment systems,” he said. The governor stated that the appeal was in terms of cost saving: “Cross-border payments are an area of interest for all of us, including the BRICS, because we feel there is a lot of scope for reducing cost.” CBDCs are digital forms of countries’ official currencies, issued directly by their central banks.
BRICS nations discuss new CBDC linkage plans
Creating a channel between these currencies could let payments travel more directly and with much more ease between nations. This will cut out layers of intermediaries that money usually passes through and lower what each transfer costs. The route of payment with linked CBDCs will work differently, but aim at a faster way for consumers and businesses to send money abroad through the domestic pathways they already use.
These paths are also expected to widen the reach of the Indian rupee. RBI governor Malhotra said the central bank will keep working to internationalize the rupee and to promote local currencies for trade and payments across borders. India is hosting this year’s BRICS summit, an annual gathering that brings together five countries, which include Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa.
The RBI had previously asked the Indian government to place a CBDC-linking proposal on the summit’s agenda earlier in 2026. The country’s goal to internationalize its currency is a major reason to continue to push to link CBDCs amongst the BRICS countries.
The governor also spoke at the event about Indian banks and financial institutions and their use of AI. He asked them to catalogue every AI model already running within their institutions and to adopt AI governance policies approved by their boards.

By Pierre Gérard, CEO and co-founder, Scorechain
When we founded Scorechain in Luxembourg in 2015, “blockchain analytics” was not yet a category. We spent the first few years explaining to banks and regulators why the transparency of a public ledger was an opportunity rather than a threat. A decade later, I am watching the same misunderstanding attach itself to artificial intelligence (AI), and it is costing the industry time it does not have.
Two stories dominate the conversation. The first says AI will soon replace compliance teams altogether. The second says AI is too unpredictable to let anywhere near regulated financial activity. I do not believe either one, and I say that as someone whose company has risk-assessed more than 2,800 virtual asset service providers (VASPs) since 2015, and has spent the past two years adding AI where it genuinely helps, as a separate layer rather than something baked into the compliance tools our clients depend on.
Start with the problem that every compliance officer I speak to raises within the first five minutes: noise. A sanctions screening system tuned the way a nervous bank tunes it can throw off false positives on the order of 95%. Transaction monitoring is not far behind. So a trained analyst, someone who understands typologies and can read a fund flow, spends the bulk of the working day clearing alerts that were never risks: dismissing name matches on a common surname, reading five adverse media hits that turn out to describe a different person entirely. Each of those adverse media checks takes an analyst 10 to 20 minutes. That is the actual texture of compliance work today, and it is why good people burn out of the profession.
This is where automation earns its place, and it is a narrower place than the hype suggests. I am not neutral about it. Scorechain AI exists to hand an analyst a single report: a wallet’s risk score, the entity types it has interacted with, and the named services and counterparties it has been exposed to. That is work that used to mean hours of manual tracing across a ledger. But notice what the report does and does not do. It does not decide anything. It compresses the evidence so that the compliance officer, the person who has to sign off on that decision and defend it to a regulator later, can read it in minutes and then make the call. That is the whole game. Good automation does not shrink the compliance function; it moves it off the treadmill of triage and back toward judgment.
The distinction matters, because the alternative is dangerous. In a regulated setting, a model cannot answer to a supervisor. The Sixth Anti-Money Laundering Directive (AMLD6) and the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) both require an institution to explain and stand behind its decisions. “The algorithm flagged it” is not a defence at an inspection, and “the algorithm cleared it” is worse. So the only responsible design is AI as a support layer sitting on top of trustworthy data, with a named compliance officer retaining the decision and the accountability that comes with it. Human oversight is not a training-wheel we remove once the model matures. It is the architecture.
And a model is only ever as good as what sits beneath it. This is the part outsiders miss. On its own, an AI reading a blockchain sees only anonymous strings of characters moving value to other anonymous strings. It cannot tell that the wallet three hops upstream is a sanctioned exchange, or that the counterparty receiving the funds is a mixer rather than a payroll provider. Supplying that missing context is the whole job of blockchain analytics: attaching identity and risk to raw on-chain activity, tracing indirect exposure across multiple hops rather than just checking the address in front of you, and scoring it against the more than a billion data points and over a million crypto entities we have labelled since 2015. Take a concrete case: a wallet looks clean at first glance, but tracing its flows shows that most of its balance arrived, two hops back, from an address tied to a ransomware operator. That is the finding a model would never reach on raw chain data alone, and the one a compliance officer has to act on. Feed a model that context and it can reason on solid ground. Feed it thin data and it produces confident nonsense, which in compliance is more dangerous than an honest gap, because it clears things it should not.
Here is what I find genuinely new. AI is no longer only a tool that compliance teams use; it is becoming a participant in the market they monitor. Autonomous agents that initiate payments under preset limits have moved from demo to deployment, pushed along by real infrastructure: Coinbase’s x402 standard for machine-to-machine payments, Visa’s Trusted Agent Protocol, the PayPal and OpenAI checkout integration. Software is starting to transact with other software, settling in crypto assets, at a volume no treasury team could match by hand.
It raises a question the industry has not answered cleanly yet: how do you apply Know Your Transaction principles to a counterparty that is a piece of software? The direction, at least, is clear. When agents transact on their own, controls cannot live only at onboarding. They move to the transaction layer itself: real-time monitoring, velocity limits, provenance, and the ability to intervene while money is still in flight. The transparency we spent years defending to sceptics turns out to be the one thing that makes autonomous on-chain activity auditable at all.
This is the future we decided to build for rather than wait on. We recently launched Scorechain MCP, which exposes our risk scoring and entity intelligence through the Model Context Protocol, the emerging standard that lets AI agents call external tools directly. The intelligence lives in our platform, and the AI stays outside it, calling in for answers rather than being embedded in the compliance tool itself. The premise is simple: an agent should never transact blind. Before it moves funds or approves a counterparty, it can ask Scorechain in the same breath whether that address is a sanctioned entity, a mixer, a known scam, or a clean private wallet, and receive a risk score in return. This is not a hypothetical throughput. We already run more than 1.5 million AML checks a day, and a screening call returns in roughly 235 milliseconds, quick enough to sit inside a live transaction rather than slow it down. We put it where those agents and workflows actually live, as an app inside ChatGPT and Claude, and as an integration on automation platforms such as n8n and Zapier. A compliance check that sits inside the flow, at the moment the decision is made, is worth far more than one bolted on after the money has already moved. The most basic check of all, whether an address appears on a sanctions list, should not sit behind a paywall for anyone. That is why we offer it as a free sanctions screening API that any developer, agent, or workflow can call. Screening for sanctions exposure is not where a compliance provider should be extracting value; it is the floor the whole market should be standing on.
There is a second-order shift here that token issuers and asset managers are only starting to reckon with. When value moves into stablecoins and tokenised assets at machine speed, the risk that matters is no longer only the individual transaction but the asset itself: who holds it, how concentrated that ownership is, and how much of the supply sits with sanctioned or otherwise high-risk entities. That is a different question from transaction monitoring, and it is the one our Digital Asset Intelligence is built to answer, giving an issuer or an asset manager an asset-level view of holders and exposure before they mint, list, or allocate.
Europe is readier for this than it is given credit for. MiCA and AMLD6 already assume continuous monitoring and clear accountability rather than a one-time check at the door, and a regime that assumes activity must be explainable is exactly what you want when software starts moving money. So yes, AI is coming for crypto compliance. It will remove a great deal of tedious work, and I welcome that. What it will not remove is the need for judgment, accountability, and verifiable data. It raises the bar on all three. The teams that treat AI as a faster analyst, grounded in reliable on-chain intelligence and kept firmly under human control, are the ones who will still be standing when the machines start transacting. That is closer than most people think.

The Chief Technology Officer of Cardano Foundation, Giorgio Zinetti, is stepping down after a little over two years at the company. Zinetti announced the development on X on Monday, noting that he would be leaving the organization on August 31 and that he planned a new adventure later in September.
Zinetti joined the Cardano Foundation in 2024, where he served as the technical leader for expanding the Foundation’s projects and products, with a focus on scaling enterprise adoption. The Foundation confirmed Zinetti’s departure in a separate post on X. No replacement has been named, and the company has yet to clarify how the CTO’s duties will be covered once Zinetti leaves at the end of the month. It, however, mentioned that the board and executive team will continue working closely with senior technical and business development staff to hold the line on enterprise adoption.
Cardano Foundation reiterates focus on its goals
Cardano Foundation also mentioned on X that “In line with our current roadmap, the Foundation Board and Executive team continues to work closely with our technical and senior business development leaders to maintain a direct focus on enterprise adoption.” The Swiss-based Cardano Foundation is a not-for-profit organization tasked with advancing Cardano.
It is worth noting that Cardano is also supported by two other separate entities, Input Output Global (IOG) and Emurg. All three companies work together to manage and advance the Cardano blockchain. IOG is Cardano’s engineering and development front, led by Charles Hoskinson, while Emurgo serves as the commercial arm. In July, however, Emurgo announced it would step down from its duties as a member of Cardano’s governance group.
The decision was made after its wallet, SecondFi, was exploited, resulting in the loss of $2.4 million in ADA, as Cryptopolitan reported. Cardano is currently the 29th-largest chain by total locked-asset value (TVL). It accounts for $69.62 million in DeFi TVL, across 69 protocols, according to on-chain data from DeFiLlama. At the time of writing, the native token ADA was trading at $0.1961, with a $7.16 billion market cap.

Microsoft is hoping to publicly launch its Maia 300 AI accelerator as soon as September, according to a report by The Information. The company is also in talks with TSMC to secure more than 300,000 units by next year.
Microsoft has contacted Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) to reserve capacity for the chips, which are due to be delivered in 2027. The order alone would exceed the tens of thousands of Maia 200 parts produced so far. Microsoft’s longer-term target is to exceed one million units, but packaging negotiations and supply of components may cap the actual number the company gets. The Maia 200 slipped after early tests failed to meet internal goals. Since then, it has reached only a handful of data centers.
Microsoft says the chip runs 30% better
Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella told investors on the company’s fiscal Q4 2026 earnings call on July 29 that the chip runs 30% better on performance per dollar than existing hardware and is being scaled to support OpenAI and Microsoft’s own MAI models. Back in January 2026, when Cryptopolitan reported the launch of the Maia 200, Microsoft described it as a second-generation part for inference based on TSMC’s 3-nanometer process.
Microsoft’s executive vice president for cloud and AI, Scott Guthrie, called it “the most efficient inference system that Microsoft has ever built.” Nadella has said openly that a goal is to cut reliance on Nvidia. Microsoft says its chips can run its own and OpenAI workloads at lower cost. It is expanding internal use through Azure AI Foundry and Copilot while selling the hardware to large outside cloud customers.
Earlier this month, Anthropic confirmed it is building its own semiconductor team to design custom chips for its Claude models. That makes it a potential buyer of the Maia 300 and a future rival in custom silicon chips. Last year, in-house chips from Google, Amazon, Meta, and OpenAI were projected to make up 45% of the AI-chip market by 2028, compared with 37% in 2024.
Microsoft’s fiscal Q4 2026 revenues were $90.0 billion, up 18% year-over-year, with Azure and other cloud services up 43%. TSMC’s N3 node and CoWoS advanced packaging will face supply constraints through 2027. That’s around the same time Microsoft wants to ramp up Maia 300 chip production.

Bybit has initiated legal proceedings in connection with the February 2025 theft of $1.5 billion in crypto, taking it to a US courtroom. The company has filed a civil lawsuit against North Korea and the Lazarus Group. So far, it has won a preliminary injunction that freezes the stolen funds investigators can still reach.
The complaint was filed in the US District Court for the District of Columbia and names the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, its Reconnaissance General Bureau, and the Lazarus Group, according to a press statement released by Bybit. It also named unidentified individuals and entities holding or moving the money, listed as John Doe defendants. However, suing a sanctioned state like North Korea may not yield the desired result, as there is no one to enforce any judgment against it. Bybit understands everything about the proceedings and has found a workaround by adding anonymous wallet holders and intermediaries.
Bybit sues North Korea and Lazarus group
According to Bybit, the development gives it a legal route to identify them and claw back whatever remains traceable. The exchange said the court found that “Bybit has demonstrated a likelihood of success on the merits,” and also referenced the theft when it granted a temporary restraining order as “one of the largest cryptocurrency thefts in history.” Ben Zhou, co-founder and CEO of Bybit, said it was an industry problem, stating, “The Lazarus attack wasn’t just an attack on Bybit. It was an attack on trust in our industry.”
He added that the exchange has worked “with investigators, exchanges, regulators, law enforcement, and now the courts.” According to Bybit, it has recovered around $48.4 million in stolen assets, and about $30.5 million more has been frozen across more than 28 exchanges and custodians pending further action. However, this is still a very small fraction of the $1.5 billion that was stolen, which Bybit also acknowledged. In its June filing, the exchange mentioned that 90.2% of the stolen assets had already gone dark after moving through mixers, cross-chain bridges, and over-the-counter dealers.
It stated that only 9.8% was traced to identifiable wallets, with about $75.5 million frozen or recovered at that point. Zhou had said a year earlier that close to 69% of the funds were still traceable. However, recent submissions show that the window has been closing fast. The lawsuit is the visible end of a longer legal effort. According to the unsealed records, Bybit first filed under seal on June 18, obtained a temporary restraining order and expedited discovery on June 19, saw the order renewed on July 16, and won a partial preliminary injunction on July 30.
The complaint seeks the return of the stolen funds, plus punitive and treble damages under the US Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act. Some of the recovery has come through law enforcement pressure on the laundering infrastructure itself. Bybit credited German authorities with dismantling the exchange eXch and German and Swiss authorities with disrupting the service Cryptomixer.io, both used to move illicit proceeds.
eXch had been accused of letting the hackers cash out, with more than $90 million funneled through it in the weeks after the breach. The FBI publicly blamed North Korea for the Bybit theft on February 26, 2025, tagging the activity “TraderTraitor” and warning that the actors were converting the stolen Ether to Bitcoin across thousands of addresses. Bybit says its civil case runs alongside the criminal investigations and that it continues to share blockchain intelligence with agencies, including the FBI.

Bitmart founder Sheldon Xia has denied that the exchange had fled with customer funds. He told account holders on X that the team is still working through asset inventory, asset consolidation, and system maintenance, with formal announcements to follow. In his post, which was written in Chinese and shared on August 8, Xia first stated that the exchange “has not run away” and “will not run away.”
In the same post, the Bitmart founder then went on to ask users not to trust the wave of rumors, screenshots, and claimed leaks attributed to current and former staff. However, Xia did not go into specifics, gave no figures, set no dates, and pointed to no reserve report. His post is coming on the same day that Bitmart set as the deadline for US customers to pull their crypto, with many users looking forward to the proofs. Bitmart said on July 26 that it would begin an “orderly wind-down of its trading platform operations,” a decision it tied to its operating conditions, market environment, and strategic direction.
Bitmart assures users of sticking to its wind-down schedule
The company’s BMX token dropped close to 60% in a day on the news, per CoinGecko data. It ended new account creation, stopped receiving deposits, and switched off fresh orders on July 26. It also stated that all spot and futures trading will stop on August 26. All operations on Bitmart will end by January 31. However, the platform stated that users will still be able to keep their login access for some time to review records and file withdrawal requests.
Days before Bitmart officially announced it was shutting down, users had flooded social media with reports that they could not get to their tokens in time or at all, as Cryptopolitan reported at the time. One account holder stated that they still had $80,000 in crypto trapped on the platform. “Right now 150,000 people are looking for their money,” that person said, pointing to a Bitmart Telegram channel. While users were experiencing difficulties with the platform, its leadership was also having a bit of drama as its global CEO, Nenter “Nathan” Chow, was let go.
Chow informed reporters that he learned about his employment ending on July 24. He said he played no part in the wind-down decision and only learned of it when it became public. Chow joined Bitmart from Animoca Ventures and took the CEO role in April 2025, when Xia stepped back to group president. Weeks before the shutdown, Chow had publicly pledged the company would “be here for the next eight” years. Bitmart’s holding company, GBM Global Holding Company Limited, is registered in the Cayman Islands, and its user agreement invokes Cayman law.
However, on August 6, the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority (CIMA) allegedly informed reporters that Bitmart and its related GBM entities “are not, and have never been, registered, licensed, regulated, or otherwise authorized” to run a virtual-asset business in or from the territory. BitMart suffered a hot-wallet hack in December 2021, where it lost about $150 million. In a statement that was released on May 23 to address earlier withdrawal complaints, it blamed its risk system, stating that it was intercepting 239 linked accounts it accused of abusing trading subsidies. A full proof-of-reserves report, as promised, is yet to be shared.

CLARITY Act negotiations face a September deadline after White House crypto adviser Patrick Witt criticized Senate Democrats for delays. Witt accused Democrats of blocking a procedural vote before the August recess.
He wrote on X, “Chuck Schumer and the “pro-crypto Democrats” pulled out all the stops to block a mere procedural vote on the bill before recess, demanding yet another extension.”
His comments followed an overnight Senate session that ended without the expected pre-recess vote. Senate Majority Leader John Thune then filed a motion to begin cloture.

Thune’s filing keeps the legislation positioned for Senate action after recess. The Senate returns September 14, leaving limited time before midterm campaigning intensifies.
Thune wrote, “We, the undersigned senators … hereby move to bring to a close debate on the motion to proceed to calendar number 423, [House Resolution] 3633, an act to provide for a system of regulation of the offer and sale of digital commodities by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.”
Witt said Congress has spent years seeking cryptocurrency rules. Senate negotiations over the CLARITY Act have continued since last summer.
He said failure to secure a vote by September 15 could permanently damage the bill’s prospects. Galaxy Research last month cut its estimated 2026 passage probability from 50 percent to 30 percent.
September Window Raises Pressure on Lawmakers
The proposal seeks clearer jurisdictional boundaries between the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.
Another delay could leave crypto firms waiting longer for comprehensive market structure legislation. September offers limited floor time before November’s midterm elections.
Thune previously blamed Democrats for slowing the legislation while promising to prioritize it after recess. His filing could allow an early procedural vote after senators return.
The chamber has a three-week September session, giving senators only days to complete voting. The bill must also compete with other Senate business.
Lawmakers Remain Divided Over Key Provisions
Disputes remain over financial crime provisions, stablecoin rewards, and government ethics requirements. Senators Gallego and Tillis proposed a July ethics compromise covering public officials and spouses.
The proposal would let state attorneys general enforce a ban on officials launching or sponsoring digital assets. It would require President Trump to sell stakes in crypto-related businesses, although he has not approved the plan.
The CLARITY Act needs roughly 60 votes. With 53 Republicans, supporters need at least seven Democratic or independent votes if every Republican supports it.
Crypto Council for Innovation CEO Ji Hun Kim said the group plans to lobby both parties during the August break. Supporters aim to secure enough votes for September action.

Ethereum and Solana are considering proposals to reduce token issuance, but Galaxy Research says supply changes alone will not reprice either asset.
Galaxy told clients that demand remains the main force determining ETH and SOL prices. Galaxy Vice President of Research Lucas Tcheyan wrote that demand decides where the tokens will go next. His comments addressed issuance proposals under review across both networks.
Ethereum EIP 8361 Targets Validator Issuance
EIP-8361 introduces a “tapered issuance burn” for validator rewards. Rewards would fall to zero once 50% of Ether supply is staked.
About one-third of ETH supply is staked. Under the proposal, consensus-layer yield would decline from around 2.6% to 1.2% at today’s rate.
Six researchers filed EIP-8361, including Ethereum Foundation researcher Justin Drake. The plan would roll out over 18 months, giving stakers nearly two years.
No vote has occurred. The proposal is being considered for Hegotá after Glamsterdam, with selection continuing through November.
Approval would likely not reach Ethereum until well into 2027. Aave founder Stani Kulechov and Sharplink oppose the proposal.
Sharplink CEO Joseph Chalom argued validators could operate at a loss after hardware and electricity costs. A validator survey recorded 99.77% opposition.
During the August 6 All Core Devs call, the presenting author raised withdrawing the proposal entirely.
Solana Proposals Accelerate Disinflation and Fee Burns
Solana is advancing two proposals through its new on-chain governance system. SIMD-0550, also called SGP-0002, was written by Helius engineers Lostin and 0xIchigo.
It would double annual disinflation to 30% and bring the 1.5% terminal floor forward to 2029 from 2032. The change would remove about 18.9 million SOL from future emissions.
Under the authors’ 68% staking-participation scenario, yield starts at 5.84%. It falls to 4.34% after one year, 3% after two years, and 2.25% after three years.
SIMD-0553, or SGP-0003, comes from Temporal’s cavemanloverboy. It would replace the flat per-signature fee with a resource-based charge based on transaction compute demand.
Those fees would be burned outright. Galaxy estimated daily SOL burns could rise from roughly 650 to between 7,500 and 9,000.
At current prices, daily burns could increase from about $47,000 to as much as $650,000. Even then, roughly 60,000 SOL enters circulation through daily inflation.
Galaxy Says Demand Remains the Pricing Driver
Galaxy said Solana’s proposals drew less opposition than Ethereum’s because versions circulated for over a year.
Both proposals cleared the 15% active-stake threshold required for discussion. They need two-thirds of the decisive stake to pass, with discussion ending August 22, 2026.
DeFi Development Corp. Nasdaq: DFDV holds SOL as its primary reserve asset. It said August 4 it supports both proposals and will vote yes.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin is back on the privacy wagon, with his latest post on X commending Signal’s work on letting people create accounts without listing a phone number. The Ethereum co-founder, a known supporter of multiple privacy initiatives, has often thrown both his money and stature behind platforms and tools with a mandate to protect users’ content and the metadata around it.
Buterin has been very vocal in his support for privacy. He has also made it a priority for Ethereum. In his April 2025 essay, “Why I support privacy,” Buterin stated that whoever holds information holds power and that concentrated data collection must be resisted in the digital realm, where it is most practical. Buterin donated 128 ETH each to Signal and SimpleX Chat in November 2025. He praised both platforms for pushing open account creation and stronger metadata privacy.
Ethereum boss praises Signal for its strong privacy push
In that same round, he highlighted the same problem Signal is now trying to solve, noting that Sybil and denial-of-service resistance on the user side is harder to get right without leaning on phone numbers. Right now, users cannot create a Signal account without submitting a phone number, which privacy proponents like the Ethereum boss have called out as a potential weakness in the privacy wall.
However, recent updates from AboutSignal.com, an independent site tracking the app, have reported commits to Signal’s server code that point to backend support for accounts that carry no phone number, covering registration security, account handling, and regional data. One commit showed that the two account types would stay separate. So a user could not add a number later or strip one from an existing account. For now, the option appears limited to new sign-ups.
In a talk recorded in March, Signal CTO Ehren Kret stated that the main reason the app does not yet offer phone-number-free registration is the need to stop bad actors from mass-creating accounts. Kret said, “We gotta figure out some way to induce a cost for signing up without a phone number.” That cost may or may not be monetary, and Kret said back in March that Signal hoped to ship some version of the feature later this year.
Buterin has also been one of the biggest forces behind building privacy features directly into the Ethereum mainnet. Those measures are focused on uncensorable private transactions, unlinkable account activity, and private blockchain reads. However, none of it is live yet. Buterin’s Ethereum roadmap tries to stop observers from linking a user’s on-chain activity or wallet queries. Signal’s removal of the phone number addresses the same class of problem from a different angle: by cutting the identifier that ties an account to a real person.

XRP whale accumulation continued in 2026 even as the token recorded a 43% price decline. Santiment data shows wallets holding between 10 million and 100 million XRP added 1.23 billion tokens since January.
The group held 10.97 billion XRP in January and 12.2 billion currently. Buying was irregular, though accumulation began before 2026. In November 2025, these wallets increased their holdings by 2.4 billion XRP.
XRP Whale Holdings Reached July Peak
Large holders slowed purchases in December and stayed quiet for several months. Accumulation gradually resumed in March 2026 and continued into the summer.
The balance peaked at 12.27 billion XRP on July 8 before easing to 12.2 billion. At current prices, the accumulated tokens are worth about $1.279 billion. At XRP’s previous record high of $3.66, the same amount would have been valued near $4.5 billion.
Exchange activity also showed fewer large transfers during July. On-chain analyst Darkfost reported that whale transfers to Binance fell to 25.3 million XRP by mid-July, the lowest level since January 2025. At their peak, such transfers reached 583 million XRP, worth about $1.36 billion.
Darkfost said, “This marks an essential first stage, the exhaustion of the largest XRP sellers on Binance, while price consolidates around $1 since June. This offers some relief for the price, which will now need a return of genuinely sustained demand to trigger a durable bullish move.”
XRP Whale Groups Show Mixed Positioning
The number of addresses holding 10 million to 100 million XRP also increased during 2026. The group started January with 301 addresses, fell to 285 in February, then climbed to 322 in early July. The figure slipped to 313, remaining below the all-time high of 351.
Other whale groups differed. Wallets holding 100 million to 1 billion XRP reduced their combined balance from 8.43 billion to 8.13 billion XRP, distributing about 300 million tokens.
Meanwhile, wallets holding 1 million to 10 million XRP increased their balance by 260 million tokens to 3.83 billion XRP. The 100,000 to 1 million XRP group reduced holdings from 6.43 billion to 6.37 billion, a decline of about 60 million XRP.
XRP Price Remains Under Pressure
The accumulation indicates that some large XRP holders increased exposure despite weak price performance. However, whale buying alone has not produced an immediate recovery, while supply changes across holder groups remain mixed.
XRP currently trades above $1 after falling about 6% over the past month. The token is also up 10% against other leading altcoins. Ethereum has gained 10%, while BNB is up 5%. Some analysts still expect XRP could fall another 35% in the coming months, which would take the token below $1.

Eric Trump has gone after Bloomberg on Thursday over its description of SpaceX as “overpromising and underdelivering.” Eric Trump posted launch figures on X in defense of the company and was later joined by Elon Musk, who wrote that “Bloomberg is garbage.”
In its recent coverage of SpaceX, Bloomberg referred to the company as one that overpromises and underdelivers, sparking the ire of both Eric Trump and Elon Musk. Eric Trump responded to the post via a quote with statistics that show that SpaceX was responsible for roughly 80 to 85% of all mass launched to orbit in 2025, compared to about 8 to 10% for China. He also said that the company completed “165 successful Falcon flights with zero failures.” Musk’s reply was shorter, simply writing, “Bloomberg is garbage,” to his followers. The post drew more than 1,600 likes within hours.
Eric Trump backs SpaceX’s activities with statistics
The “overpromising” charge that Eric Trump was trying to disprove relates to targets Musk has set but not yet met. Musk has a record of disputes over his public statements, including an announced plan to take Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) private that never happened. Cryptopolitan reported SpaceX’s first earnings. SpaceX reported $7.81 billion in second-quarter revenue, up 92% from a year earlier, but also a $541 million net loss and $18.37 billion in quarterly capital spending.
Company executives said the 13th Starship test still needs regulatory approval before it can happen. They also said a Starlink upgrade will not be fully available to customers until about 1,000 new satellites are in orbit. SpaceX’s Starship program has cost over $15 billion so far, including $3 billion in 2025 and nearly $900 million in early 2026. The company expects Starship to start delivering payloads to orbit in the second half of 2026, but that milestone remains ahead of it.
Eric Trump told Fox News host Sean Hannity back in 2017 that critics of his father were “not even people.” He also called the news media “out of control.” That same year, he told a radio show that dwelling on negative coverage could push someone to “end up killing yourself out of depression.” During the 2024 campaign, he defended claims about FEMA that officials had labeled disinformation, telling Scripps News, “It’s not misinformation. FEMA has run out of money.”
Musk has had many similar clashes that have escalated as his platform has grown. The Guardian columnist Jane Martinson wrote about Musk’s interview with Zanny Minton Beddoes, the editor-in-chief of The Economist, whom he called a “traitor to the West” after the interview ended. He also said the mainstream press is a “reality distortion nightmare mirror.”
A separate spat with President Donald Trump in June 2025 erased $34 billion from Musk’s net worth in a single day. During that dispute, Musk threatened to decommission SpaceX’s Dragon spacecraft but ultimately reversed his decision five hours later.

The estate of late Ondo Finance founder Nathan Allman has taken the tokenization firm’s current chief executive to court in Delaware over a legal ownership dispute. A disputed leadership handover has left the company with two rival power centers, and the estate is asking a judge to decide who legally runs Ondo Finance.
Until a judge rules, the legal standing of the company’s contracts, spending and share issuance is in doubt. Three complaints were filed on the 6th of August in Delaware’s Court of Chancery by Kathleen Allman, the mother of the late Nathan Allman, founder of Ondo Finance. When Nathan Allman died in late May at 32, he held three roles at once: CEO, sole director and controlling shareholder, according to the complaint. His death froze the company. His voting shares passed into his estate, so no one had the authority to exercise them, and with the single board seat empty, there was no director left to appoint a successor or call a meeting.
Ondo Finance ownership clash causes issues
The deadlock continued until a Hawaii probate court made his mother administrator of the estate on June 26, handing her the voting power. The estate is accusing Ian De Bode, the former president of Ondo Finance, of using the gap before probate closed to install himself. According to the filings, De Bode took advantage of the bylaws to declare himself CEO, then leaned on a shareholder agreement to name himself sole director and started acting alone.
Kathleen Allman’s suit argues Ondo Finance’s charter allowed the CEO vacancy to be filled only by a board decision, and since no board existed, De Bode’s appointment was void along with everything that followed. De Bode also allegedly leaned on corporate resources to pressure Kathleen into signing documents cementing his control, and he and Ondo’s outside lawyers refused her request for a shareholder list. After gaining her voting rights, Allman did not immediately fire De Bode.
After joining the board, she put an interim operating policy in place to keep the business running, and kept De Bode on as president while asking for basic company records, all of which De Bode and Ondo Finance’s counsel declined to recognize. De Bode has called Allman’s claims “meritless” and her decision to sue “regretful.” According to him, Ondo Finance still has the backing of “key stakeholders, including its lead investors and the Ondo Foundation.”
The Ondo Finance board said in a statement that it remains focused on serving users “without interruption” while it searches for a permanent successor. The company also recently named former Blockchain.com executive Adam Schlisman as its chief financial officer. Ondo Finance, founded in 2021 and backed by Coinbase, Wintermute, Tiger Global and Peter Thiel’s Founders Fund, is leading the real-world asset market with about $3.5 billion in total value locked.
It runs products including the OUSG tokenized Treasury fund and the yield-bearing USDY token, but following the news of the dispute, ONDO fell about 6% over 24 hours to $0.35. The company is currently trading at roughly 84% below its December 2024 record of $2.14. More than 10 million ONDO was reportedly moved onto exchanges as the news spread, with some transfers tied to Ondo team wallets, and put the two-day drop at around 9%.

Markets move fast, and staying ahead requires continuous learning and access to the right insights. With macroeconomic shifts, regulatory updates, and sudden technical breakouts redefining the financial landscape, static charts aren’t enough. Market participants need real-time perspectives, robust peer analysis, and adaptable toolsets to survive and thrive. To meet this structural demand, the upcoming Global Trading Show Meetup has established itself as the definitive ecosystem for interactive professional learning, collaborative strategic discussion, and deep-market understanding.
Powered by Times of Trading, this highly anticipated industry gathering bridges the gap between complex structural theories and actionable execution. Far from a conventional lecture-based conference, the meetup is built from the ground up as a high-value knowledge collaborative. It offers a transparent window into how modern trading institutions, proprietary desks, and technical analysts break down information, optimize risk parameters, and deploy capital across diverse asset classes.
Deconstructing Global Market Movements
Modern trading operates across continuous, interconnected global sessions, transforming financial markets into a 24-hour liquidity cycle. A sudden monetary policy shift in Asia can instantly trigger a cascade of volatility throughout Europe, which can then dictate the opening orders on Wall Street. Consequently, achieving consistent market performance requires a highly sophisticated awareness of macroeconomic timing, multi-market trends, and regional behavioral variations.
The core curriculum of the Global Trading Show Meetup tackles these complexities. Attendees will dissect current macro indicators, explore the hidden nuances of cross-asset correlations, and analyze how global capital flows behave under varying market conditions. By stepping away from isolated technical metrics, participants will discover how to evaluate the broader structural trends that drive long-term price velocity, allowing them to transform systematic global volatility into structured strategic advantages.
Engineered for All Skill Levels
A defining characteristic of this event is its broad, inclusive architecture. Since the financial ecosystem relies on diverse perspectives to create deep liquidity, this meetup mirrors that diversity in its target audience. The environment explicitly caters to active institutional and retail traders, seasoned market analysts, long-term investors, and ambitious beginners looking for a solid foundation.
For active professionals and institutional analysts, the gathering can help stress-test advanced methodologies, debate risk mitigation strategies, and explore next-generation trading technologies. Simultaneously, newer market participants gain a rare, unfiltered look into professional-grade risk management frameworks, helping them bypass common early pitfalls. This cross-pollination of levels of varying expertise creates an environment where every participant can access practical, institutional-grade knowledge.
Interactive Discussions and Strategic Networking
The structural layout of the Global Trading Show Meetup prioritizes collaborative interaction over passive observation. The schedule features intensive, live case studies, technical workshops, and open-mic panel discussions that encourage constructive peer critique. From examining historical setups and subtle nuances in market microstructures to identifying execution errors, the attendees at this event will engage with market veterans rather than checking out slideshows.
Beyond technical education, the event provides an invaluable venue for organic, high-level professional networking. In an industry often characterized by isolation, building direct relationships with trustworthy peers is a proven accelerator of long-term professional development. The informal breakout sessions and structured meeting spaces are engineered to spark cross-border ideas, facilitate capital partnerships, and encourage continuous knowledge exchange long after the event formally concludes.
Register and Join the Community
In the modern financial landscape, separation is driven entirely by information asymmetry. Better insights lead to better decisions, and better decisions ultimately forge a sustainable, long-term career path in the global marketplace. The Global Trading Show Meetup is your entry point to acquiring those insights, mastering those strategies, and building a reliable network of like-minded market professionals.
The space for this premier gathering is strictly limited to ensure meaningful, high-value networking and high-quality collaborative discussions, so secure your seat today!
To view the full event schedule, review guest speaker profiles, and secure your complimentary access pass, please visit the official event platform at the Global Trading Show Meetup Hub.
Do not let fast-moving market shifts catch you unprepared. Register and be part of the trading community, claim your place among industry peers, and become an active participant in shaping the future of global trading.
