Michael Saylor stated that the biggest evolution of Bitcoin in the next decade will come from fewer changes at the protocol layer and a greater role in other areas. He believes that the foundational layer of Bitcoin will become more solid, capital markets will continue to deepen, applications will expand, institutions will enter, and the world will build on Bitcoin. Bitcoin is not a tech stock, a payment company, or a software platform competing to add features, but a monetary network whose purpose is not to act quickly and disrupt things, but to move slowly and remain unbroken.Saylor indicated that Bitcoin has won the first important battle, and the world is increasingly understanding that Bitcoin is digital capital, possessing attributes such as scarcity, durability, portability, divisibility, programmability, and global transferability. The strongest version of Bitcoin is not to "replace all payment rails," but to become a neutral, global, scarce asset around which capital, credit, and commerce are organized. The foundational layer is not optimized for coffee payments, but designed for final settlement, reserve assets, collateral settlement, and ultimate ownership transfer.He believes that the four-year cycle of Bitcoin is still important, but no longer the dominant model. In the next decade, Bitcoin's price movements will be driven less by miner issuance and more by capital flows from ETFs, corporate treasuries, sovereign reserves, bank credit, derivatives, insurance, collateral, and global savings. Halving will tighten supply, while capital flows will determine the growth trajectory. Digital credit will accelerate Bitcoin adoption, connecting Bitcoin capital with the broader financial system.Saylor stated that the main question in the next decade is not whether Bitcoin can survive, but whether economic exposure is still connected to real Bitcoin or if too much "paper Bitcoin" is being formed. Custodial transparency, proof of reserves, risk management, capital structure, and counterparty risk will all become important.He expects that by 2036, Bitcoin will be more widely held, more deeply institutionalized, more politically significant, and become an important collateral asset in the digital credit market; while the foundational protocol itself may change less than everything built around it.

Paymentscan data shows that the total recharge amount of cryptocurrency payment cards has surpassed $10 billion for the first time, reaching approximately $10.33 billion, an increase of 82% since the beginning of the year and about 250% year-on-year. This data reflects the cumulative recharge scale of cryptocurrency payment cards and related payment projects, rather than the trading volume of cryptocurrency exchanges.Reports indicate that stablecoins are becoming the main driving force behind the popularity of cryptocurrency payment cards. Compared to volatile assets like Bitcoin, stablecoins can complete payment settlements through traditional card networks, lowering the access threshold for merchants and making them more suitable for cross-border payments, remittances, and daily consumption scenarios in high-inflation areas.As payment companies, cryptocurrency exchanges, and asset management institutions continue to improve stablecoin infrastructure, cryptocurrency payment cards are gradually becoming an important gateway connecting digital assets to real-world consumption. However, as the scale of application expands, regulatory agencies will also pay more attention to issues such as consumer protection, sanctions screening, tax reporting, reserve asset transparency, and transaction monitoring.

According to Coin Bureau, Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino explained the reason why USDT has not applied for the EU MiCA license, stating that the regulation is "very dangerous for stablecoins."He mentioned that MiCA could force issuers to keep 60% of their reserves in uninsured cash deposits at small European banks, which may not be able to handle large-scale redemptions. Ardoino believes the legislation is "poorly considered" and stated that "skipping MiCA is to protect Tether's over 400 million users."

According to Jinshi reports, Glenmede's Chief Investment Strategist Jason Pride and Vice President of Investment Strategy Michael Reynolds stated that investors should expect the U.S. unemployment rate in June to remain unchanged at 4.3%, with non-farm payrolls increasing by about 87,000. Although this is a decline from May's 172,000, it is still considered a strong result in the current "low hiring, low layoffs" labor market environment.

The latest report from payment infrastructure company Cybrid shows that the adoption of stablecoins by enterprises is accelerating towards becoming mainstream. Among the 468 corporate executives and business leaders surveyed, as many as 42% of companies are already using stablecoins for cross-border payments, and 88% of respondents indicated they are very likely to adopt them within the next 12 months, while only 2% of respondents said they would rely entirely on traditional payment networks.Data shows that companies using stablecoins save an average of 35% on cross-border payment costs; for large enterprises processing over $100 million monthly, cost savings can reach up to 47%. The most common use cases for companies using stablecoins are: payroll disbursement, vendor payments, and customer payments. In addition, 71% of respondents emphasized that clear regulatory policies (such as the recently passed stablecoin regulatory bill GENIUS Act in the U.S.) are the most critical factor driving their expansion of stablecoin usage, with its importance even surpassing the level of infrastructure improvement.With the growth in demand, the supporting infrastructure in the industry is also continuously expanding. Data from payment platform Paybis shows that in the first four months of 2026, B2B transactions accounted for nearly 98% of the total stablecoin payments on its platform. This Monday, Bank of New York Mellon (BNY) also announced the expansion of its digital asset custody platform, allowing institutional clients to store and circulate Circle's USDC directly through the bank.

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority and the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau jointly announced that the first phase review on promoting the further application of Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) in Hong Kong's fixed income market has been completed.The review results indicate that the current legal and regulatory environment in Hong Kong is sufficiently flexible to support the issuance of tokenized bonds. The three batches of iconic tokenized bonds issued by the Hong Kong government and the increasing number of corporate issuances (including those from issuers in Asia and the Middle East) are the best evidence of this. The next phase will involve a review of the legislation to promote the broader application of DLT in the fixed income market and the digital asset sector, including allowing the electronic execution of tokenized bond issuance documents and exploring concepts such as "custody" and "transfer" of tokenized fixed income products.

According to The Block, Binance founder Zhao Changpeng stated that the MiCA license application submitted by Binance in Greece fully complied with regulatory requirements and was close to approval before being withdrawn, but ultimately the process was interrupted due to "external political factors."In an interview, Zhao Changpeng mentioned that several countries within the EU had expressed interest in the license, and there was even a certain degree of "competitive pursuit," but the regulatory progress was ultimately affected by non-regulatory factors, forcing the application to be withdrawn. Binance officially withdrew its application in Greece last week and stated that it would turn to other EU member states to continue pursuing MiCA authorization.In response to market rumors regarding his connections with high-level EU politicians, Zhao Changpeng stated that he had not seen any verifiable documents and only saw similar claims online, which he did not confirm. Zhao Changpeng also pointed out that the EU MiCA transition period will officially end on July 1, at which time platforms that have not obtained licenses must cease related services. Regulatory agencies in various countries have made it clear that they will not postpone enforcement, and they evaluate this outcome as a "lose-lose situation," using the regulatory processes in Japan and Singapore as examples to emphasize that compliance processes often require a longer period.Additionally, when discussing Strategy's STRC preferred stock product, Zhao Changpeng stated that its structure is "too complex" and expressed difficulty in fully understanding its mechanism, but emphasized that he does not comment on the credibility of its founder Michael Saylor, considering him a "staunch supporter of Bitcoin."
