Binance Alpha will launch Towns (TOWNS) on August 5
According to the official announcement, Binance Alpha will launch Towns (TOWNS) on August 5, and eligible users can go to the Alpha event page to claim airdrops using Binance Alpha points after the trading opens. Specific details will be announced separately.
According to Yonhap News, the Financial Services Commission and the Financial Supervisory Service of South Korea convened executives from five virtual asset exchanges on July 25 to express concerns about the cryptocurrency lending services recently launched by Upbit and Bithumb, pointing out legal disputes, insufficient user protection measures, and that leveraged investments could affect the operators' stability.
Previously, Bithumb launched a service on the 4th that allows borrowing up to 4 times the cryptocurrency collateralized by assets or Korean won, supporting 10 cryptocurrencies; Upbit launched a service on the same day for 3 cryptocurrencies with a maximum borrowing limit of 80%. Such services allow investors to use short-selling strategies, especially Bithumb's leverage of up to 4 times, raising concerns about insufficient user protection measures, as the maximum leverage for ETFs in the South Korean stock market is only 2 times.
After the authorities convened the meeting, Upbit suspended USDT lending services on the 28th, and Bithumb adjusted its lending services on the 29th, currently not accepting new applications due to exhausted limits. Given the ongoing controversy, financial authorities decided to form a special working group with the industry to develop self-regulatory rules.

Indonesia will raise the cryptocurrency trading tax rate
According to Reuters, Indonesia will implement new cryptocurrency tax regulations starting in 2026. Under the adjustment, domestic sellers of crypto assets will need to pay a transaction tax of 0.21% (up from 0.1%), while the tax rate for sellers on foreign platforms will be significantly raised to 1% (up from 0.2%).
At the same time, buyers will no longer bear the original value-added tax of 0.11% to 0.22%. The tax burden on crypto mining will also be significantly increased, with the value-added tax rising from 1.1% to 2.2%, and the special income tax of 0.1% being abolished, now subject to personal or corporate income tax rates.
The Supreme Court released a typical case showing that the Intermediate People's Court of Leshan, Sichuan, elevated the hearing of a case involving illegal foreign exchange trading using USDT. Between 2020 and 2021, Wan and others illegally traded foreign exchange through "RMB---USDT---USD," with an amount exceeding 234 million yuan. The court determined that they constituted the crime of illegal business operations, with the principal offender Wan sentenced to 13 years and 6 months in prison and fined 1.14 million yuan, while other defendants were also sentenced.
According to the Daily Economic News, HKMA Vice President Chen Weimin stated at a technical briefing on the regulatory system for stablecoin issuers that the number of stablecoin issuer licenses to be issued in the first phase is still uncertain and depends on the quality of the application materials submitted by the applying institutions. The first stablecoin issuer license is expected to be issued early next year, emphasizing that "the threshold for approval is very high," and entering the "sandbox testing" does not mean that a license will be granted.
Chen Weimin also stated that the HKMA holds an open attitude towards fiat currency types, and stablecoin issuers can apply for licenses for stablecoins pegged to a specific fiat currency or a basket of fiat currencies, with a focus on indicating the fiat currency type at the time of application.
Ethereum's 10th anniversary commemorative NFT free minting is now open and will end on July 31
According to the official announcement, the free minting of Ethereum's 10th anniversary torch commemorative NFT is now open, and minting will end at 24:00 on July 31 (UTC+8).
According to the official announcement, LINEA token economics: the total supply is 72,009,990,000 (about 72 billion), equivalent to 1,000 times the initial circulation of ETH, with a distribution method echoing Ethereum's genesis distribution: 85% of the supply is dedicated to the ecosystem, and the remaining 15% is allocated to the treasury. Early users will receive tokens from a distribution equivalent to 9% of the token supply, which will be airdropped and fully unlocked at TGE. Airdrop eligibility will be assessed based on a series of indicators, including LXP and on-chain metrics. Complete details and individual eligibility information will be announced through the official eligibility checker before TGE. In addition to user airdrops, 1% of the LINEA token supply will be reserved for strategic builders in the ecosystem and will be fully unlocked at TGE, including core applications and communities.
75% of the LINEA token supply is allocated to the ecosystem fund, which is managed by an alliance that includes ENS Labs, Eigen Labs, SharpLink, Status, and Consensys. About 25% of the funds will be allocated to support the launch of the ecosystem in the first 12-18 months, and the remaining 50% will be gradually released over 10 years, which will be used to fund protocol development, shared infrastructure, open-source tools, and establish strategic partnerships with developers aligned with the goals. 15% of the total token supply is allocated to the treasury. These tokens will be locked for five years and cannot be transferred until the full vesting period expires.
ETH is used as the network gas token, and after deducting L1 costs, 20% of the gas fees will be burned, thereby reducing the supply of ETH and enhancing its monetary premium, while the remaining 80% of the gas fees will be used to burn LINEA.
