3. Hot Searches
The most popular topics this week (05.29-06.02) are:
Hongkong (Event): The Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) issued a circular on the transitional arrangements for a new licensing system specifically for virtual asset trading platforms. The transitional arrangements are intended to provide virtual asset services in Hong Kong before June 1, 2023. Hong Kong Virtual Asset Rating Agency HKVAC was officially established and will launch virtual asset indexes and exchange ratings. The implementation of Hong Kong's encryption policy is good news for the encryption market in the long term. Please note that there may be speculation risks in related sectors in the short term.
OP (Token): The Optimism team said in a Twitter post on May 15 that the network will upgrade Bedrock on June 6, which will be down for 2 to 4 hours. Bedrock reduces transaction fees by using optimized batch compression and Ethereum as a data availability layer; it reduces the latency of including L1 transactions in Rollup by handling L1 reorganization more gracefully. More than 386 million OP tokens are scheduled to be unlocked on May 31 before the upgrade, which is more than twice the total circulating supply. The token price is expected to be under pressure.
Shiba (Token): The token price fluctuates violently, and the community discussion is very heated; Certik recently announced that Shiba's security level has returned to AAA, which is a big benefit for Shiba.
