"Some people within the Iranian regime will certainly talk about imposing tolls. But the Iranian side has told us that they do not have plans to impose tolls in the Strait of Hormuz; they have already informed us that they would do so, and the entire Gulf Cooperation Council hopes so as well.But you know, we are not gullible; we will verify. What we are concerned about is not people's words, but their actions."

White House cryptocurrency advisor Patrick Witt posted on the X platform that the U.S. Congress has been pushing for cryptocurrency market structure legislation for many years, and the Senate has been negotiating the CLARITY Act since last summer. However, in the past week, Chuck Schumer and so-called "pro-cryptocurrency Democrats" blocked the bill from undergoing procedural voting before the recess and requested further delays.Patrick Witt warned that if the bill does not make progress before September 15, the likelihood of it passing in the future will be significantly reduced.

On July 17, French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot submitted Bill No. 921 to the Senate, proposing to incorporate the Crypto Asset Reporting Framework (CARF) established by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) into French law and to automatically exchange encrypted data with 48 countries that have signed related agreements.The exchanged information includes specific transactions, user names, addresses, tax identification numbers, places of residence, and the cumulative transaction value during the reporting period. EU member states have prepared to conduct relevant data exchanges based on the DAC-8 directive, which will take effect on September 30, 2027. After the bill is approved, the French government will accelerate the collection of encrypted data. A Chainalysis report indicates that by 2026, France had recorded 30 publicly known violent robberies of crypto assets; the report states that a tax official in the Paris region is suspected of selling data on high-net-worth crypto holders.

ECX developer Paul Sztorc announced that the ECX hard fork will be launched in three phases, rather than the originally scheduled single release on August 23. ECX is a new blockchain that replicates the complete transaction history of Bitcoin at a specified block height. Almost all Bitcoin holders, except for Satoshi Nakamoto's portion of Bitcoin, will receive an equivalent amount of ECX, and the Bitcoin network itself will not change.The first Alpha version will be activated on August 23 at block height 963648, the Beta version will go live on September 20 at block height 967680, and the permanent complete version is scheduled for release on October 31 at block height 973728. Tokens collected during the Alpha and Beta phases can be destroyed and exchanged for official ECX once the permanent chain is launched. The replay protection for ECX remains an optional mechanism; the official wallet will enable this protection and remind users before executing transactions. Paul Sztorc stated that if users ignore the reminder, ECX will replay their Bitcoin transactions, causing the related Bitcoins to follow the user out and transfer to new holders; October 31 also marks the 18th anniversary of Satoshi Nakamoto's publication of the Bitcoin white paper.

According to a report by Wall Street Journal, the AI fund Situational Awareness, which was previously disclosed to have suffered significant losses due to a sharp correction in AI-related stocks, is seeking new capital injection. However, the fund's experience of blowing up has not become a stain in Silicon Valley; instead, it has reinforced the "hero persona" of founder Leopold Aschenbrenner. Many Silicon Valley investors see it as an opportunity to "buy the dip" and continue to support this former OpenAI researcher turned investor. The fund has now informed investors that it will not accept new capital for the time being, but the enthusiasm from the outside has not waned. Senior venture capitalist Elad Gil even publicly announced his first application to invest in Aschenbrenner's fund.In addition, Morgan Stanley, which previously refused to provide prime brokerage services to Situational Awareness, has changed its stance and plans to include the fund as a prime brokerage client in the coming weeks.

GSR's latest report indicates that most DAOs in the crypto industry have structural defects in treasury management, with about 70% of treasury assets concentrated in the project's native tokens.GSR states that this asset structure may create a pro-cyclical negative feedback loop: when the price of the native token falls, the value of the treasury shrinks, while protocol revenue and market activity are affected, further increasing the financial pressure on the project.Project teams typically seek to hedge only after the token price has dropped, but by this time, the market's implied volatility has often risen, significantly increasing the cost of risk protection.GSR suggests that DAOs should separate operational reserves from long-term token holdings and consider using collar strategies to build downside protection, reducing the impact of market declines on the treasury and extending the project's funding usage cycle during bear markets.GSR believes that in the short term, more projects adopting hedging strategies may drive growth in trading volume in the crypto options market, but the impact on spot prices is limited; in the medium term, if the structure of DAO treasuries improves, it is expected to reduce systemic selling pressure in the market.

Bloomberg senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas posted on the X platform that Bitcoin spot ETFs recently recorded the strongest weekly inflow since April of this year, with a net inflow of approximately $1 billion, marking the third-best performance since last October's "Silent IPO" event. Several products, including BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) and Fidelity's Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC), have seen inflows for multiple trading days following the Coldcard wallet incident.Eric Balchunas added that while a causal relationship cannot be fully confirmed, the strong correlation between fund flows and the timing of events is "hard to ignore." If it is ultimately proven that the Coldcard incident becomes the starting point for the next Bitcoin rally, it would be somewhat ironic—because attacks on Bitcoin cold storage wallets are typically viewed as one of the worst security incidents, yet market sentiment may shift as a result. Recent ETF fund inflows indicate that institutional investors' demand for Bitcoin allocation is recovering, and the market is reassessing the impact of previous security incidents.

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) issued a notice reminding regulated entities involved in the listing, promotion, or acceptance of event contracts to ensure that consumers are provided with clear and accurate product pricing information, avoiding misleading market participants, including the obligation to display clear and accurate derivative pricing information.The CFTC's Market Oversight and Market Participants divisions stated that registered entities and relevant personnel must comply with regulatory requirements, ensuring that users fully understand the product attributes in the CFTC-regulated market, and strengthen the supervision of information disclosure by intermediaries, related parties, and partners. It was also specifically pointed out that displaying event contract prices using the common "American odds format" may mislead traders' understanding of the product nature and prevent users from fully obtaining key trading information such as market depth and price impact.The CFTC requires that market participants clearly show consumers that the products are event contracts on CFTC-regulated exchanges, and any misleading pricing display behavior related to regulated products may violate relevant provisions of U.S. federal law regarding the prohibition of manipulative trading practices.

The European Union (EU) has decided to review the current regulatory framework for crypto assets and stablecoins, even as the European Commission's Directorate-General for Financial Stability, Financial Services and Capital Markets Union is still consulting on whether to review the MiCA-related stablecoin provisions. This review aims to address the issue of non-EU stablecoin issuers being unable to obtain licenses due to current requirements.The review will be influenced by the passage of the U.S. GENIUS Act and the Trump administration's push for stablecoin policies. The current framework does not include major foreign stablecoin issuers, including Tether, and Patrick Hansen, Senior Director of Stablecoin Strategy and Policy at Circle, stated that this leaves European crypto users unprotected or isolated. EU diplomats will also assess whether to expand the scope of MiCA to include tokenized payment methods and tokenized deposits. The transition period for MiCA, aimed at crypto asset service providers, ended on July 1, and the framework was approved by the EU Council on May 16, 2023, with some provisions based on market conditions from over three years ago.

The U.S. Senate has postponed the vote on the CLARITY Act until after the summer recess, increasing uncertainty about the bill's passage in the short term.The CLARITY Act had previously received bipartisan support in the House of Representatives and aims to establish a federal regulatory framework for digital assets, clarify the responsibilities of different regulatory agencies, and promote the further integration of crypto assets into the U.S. financial system.North Carolina Republican Senator Thom Tillis stated that with the vote postponed until September, the probability of the bill's final passage "may have decreased by 50%." Wyoming Republican Senator Cynthia Lummis, who is responsible for pushing the negotiations, indicated that discussions have been ongoing for nearly 11 months, the bill text has increased by about 300 pages, and it has responded to numerous amendment requests from Democrats, and it should now enter the voting phase.Currently, Democrats still oppose the existing version, with the main disagreement centered on the restrictions on government officials' interests in crypto assets. Democrats believe that the current version does not adequately limit federal officials' investments and promotion of crypto assets, nor does it require relevant personnel to fully divest from related holdings, while also seeking to grant state attorneys general stronger enforcement powers.Some Democratic and Republican lawmakers had previously pushed for the inclusion of stricter ethical oversight provisions, but negotiations are still ongoing. Democrats are particularly concerned about the connections between Trump and his family with crypto projects like World Liberty Financial.Previously, the crypto industry hoped the Senate could advance procedural voting before the summer recess to adjust political investments during the 2026 midterm elections based on legislative progress. Data shows that the crypto industry's main political action committee, Fairshake, held nearly $200 million in cash reserves at the beginning of this cycle.
