🔥 Polygon Labs conducts another round of layoffs amid strategic restructuring 🔥

💥 Polygon Labs has announced its second round of layoffs in 2026, coming just before the completion of its acquisition of crypto exchange Coinme. CEO Marc Boiron said the move was necessary to restructure the company ahead of integrating Coinme’s team.
✨ Polygon is shifting from a blockchain-focused foundation into a blockchain payment infrastructure provider, with a focus on stablecoins, wallets, on/off-ramp solutions, and enterprise payments.
✨ Earlier this year, Polygon spent over $250 million acquiring Coinme and Sequence, laying the foundation for its Polygon Open Money Stack ecosystem.
✨ Despite multiple workforce reductions, Polygon stated that the layoffs were not driven by financial difficulties but were part of a long-term strategy to optimize operations.

🛡 Polygon is now aiming to become a licensed stablecoin payment infrastructure provider in the U.S., choosing to collaborate with traditional financial systems rather than directly compete with giants like Visa and Mastercard.

✅ Trading fee: 0.5% per transaction
✅ Execution and custody are currently powered by Zero Hash

🔈🔈 BTC MARKET UPDATE – 18/07/2026

💥 BTC is currently trading around $63,800, virtually flat over the past 24 hours as the market awaits new developments from Washington. The focus remains on legal news and announcements from major companies in the crypto industry.

💎 Key news today:
✔️ The U.S. House of Representatives has completed its hearing session on the CLARITY Act; the bill continues to be moved to the next stages of review. The crypto community is waiting for the voting schedule and further updates from the U.S. Congress.
✔️ Donald Trump is continuing to lobby Senators to advance the CLARITY Act, with the goal of pushing the bill further before the Congressional recess. This remains the most closely tracked legal event in the crypto market this week.
✔️ Strategy (MicroStrategy) did not buy additional BTC in the past week; instead, it raised approximately $467 million via stock issuance to increase its cash reserves. This move continues to draw market attention.
✔️ Investors are waiting for new information on the GENIUS Act and the CLARITY Act, as any positive signals from the U.S. Congress could become a major catalyst for the entire crypto market.
✔️ Bitcoin stays around the $63.8K area, while altcoins also trade cautiously ahead of more new macro and regulatory news.

🛡 Outlook & Strategy:
✔️ Near support: ~$63,500
✔️ Strong support: ~$62,500
✔️ Near-term resistance: ~$64,500
✔️ Strong resistance: ~$65,500

🔈Today, BD Ventures is honored to attend the Vietnam RWA Summit 2026 – the first international event dedicated to the Tokenization of Real World Assets (Real World Asset) in Vietnam.

Taking place on July 18–19 in Hanoi, the Vietnam RWA Summit 2026 brings together over 3,000 delegates, alongside the participation of policymakers, financial institutions, blockchain enterprises, and leading Web3 projects.
The event is co-organized by the State Securities Commission of Vietnam (SSC), the Vietnam Blockchain and Digital Assets Association, and the National Cybersecurity Association (NCA).

The program focuses on key topics such as the legal framework for tokenized assets and RWAs, risk governance, anti-money laundering, cybersecurity, data infrastructure, and liquidity for tokenized assets.

📈 The market outlook is also highly promising: capital flows into RWAs in 2025 are expected to grow by approximately 300%, while Vietnam currently has a scale of ~US$200 billion in tokenized assets and 17 million people holding them.

🤝 BD Ventures looks forward to connecting with partners, projects, and investors to help further drive the development of Vietnam’s blockchain ecosystem and digital assets in the coming time.

🔈🔈 BTC MARKET UPDATE – 17/07/2026

💥 BTC is currently trading around $63,800, slightly down over the past 24 hours after losing the $64K area. The market continues to wait for new developments from Crypto Week in the US, while legal and corporate news are becoming the main drivers instead of technical factors.

💎 Notable news today:
✔️ The U.S. House of Representatives holds a hearing on the CLARITY Act on 17/7, an important step before the bill is moved into the next stages of review. This is one of the most closely watched events by the crypto community this week.
✔️ Donald Trump meets with senators and crypto advisors at the White House to push forward the CLARITY Act ahead of the congressional recess. The meeting takes place right before the hearing, showing efforts to accelerate the regulatory framework for digital assets in the US.
✔️ The market is waiting for results and official statements from Crypto Week; any positive signals related to the CLARITY Act or the GENIUS Act could strongly impact the entire crypto market in the short term.
✔️ Strategy remains the most watched company in the Bitcoin Treasury group after its plan to sell a portion of BTC to add liquidity, while many other companies still maintain a long-term Bitcoin holding strategy.
✔️ Bitcoin drops to the $63.8K region as market sentiment turns cautious ahead of legal events in Washington, rather than being driven by on-chain factors or ETF flows.

🛡 Outlook & Strategy:
✔️ Near support: ~$63,500
✔️ Strong support: ~$62,500
✔️ Near-term resistance: ~$64,500
✔️ Strong resistance: ~$65,500

💥💥 Trump directly steps in to remove the final bottleneck of the CLARITY Act

🔥 President Donald Trump will meet with Republican senators and White House officials to address the controversial ethics provision in the CLARITY Act before the bill is brought to a vote.

💎 The biggest obstacle is a rule that limits federal officials from benefiting from crypto investment while in office, amid Democrats continuing to criticize ties related to Mr. Trump’s crypto-related activities.

📌 If the White House and Congress reach an agreement, the CLARITY Act will have a strong chance of passing before the Senate’s summer recess in early August. This is seen as one of the most important bills shaping the legal framework for the crypto market in the U.S.

🔥 South Korea is set to officially recognize crypto as national assets 🔥

💥 South Korea is planning to replace the national asset management law that has existed for 76 years, expanding its scope to digital assets, intellectual property rights, and other intangible assets.

⭐️ At the same time, the country is expected to:
✨ Pilot tokenized government bonds in 2027
✨ Connect to the central bank’s CBDC infrastructure
✨ Research tokenization of government-owned real estate
✨ Build a comprehensive legal framework for crypto, stablecoins, and spot Bitcoin ETFs

🛡 South Korea is accelerating efforts to make blockchain and digital assets a key part of the financial infrastructure and a new growth driver for the economy.

💎 Notable news today:
✔️ Crypto Week continues to be the center of attention, as the U.S. House of Representatives keeps reviewing key bills such as the CLARITY Act, the GENIUS Act (stablecoin), and the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act. This is seen as a legal framework that could shape the crypto market in the U.S. for years to come.
✔️ U.S. Bitcoin ETFs have recorded capital inflows returning, helping reinforce investors’ confidence after the early-month correction.
✔️ Strategy remains in focus after the plan to sell a portion of its Bitcoin to ensure operating funding and pay dividends, while many companies holding Bitcoin Treasury still reaffirm a long-term holding strategy.
✔️ DeFi projects and perpetual DEXs continue to attract attention as multiple Layer 1 and Layer 2 ecosystems expand decentralized trading infrastructure, creating additional momentum for the on-chain segment during Crypto Week.

💥💥 Bolivia considers introducing USDT into the national payment system

🔥 Bolivia is considering recognizing USDT as an official payment method in order to meet people's demand for access to USD amid a shortage of foreign currency.

💎 Bolivia’s Minister of Economic Development said the government is building a legal framework to regulate stablecoins instead of allowing the market to develop spontaneously. However, the process will be carried out cautiously due to issues related to anti-money-laundering regulations.

📈 Demand for crypto use in Bolivia has surged as people turn to USDT as a tool for storing value and making international transfers. Chainalysis data shows the country recorded about $14.8 billion in crypto transactions from 07/2024–06/2025.

📌 If approved, Bolivia will become one of the next countries to push stablecoin adoption in the economy, reflecting the growing role of USDT in emerging markets.
