According to Bloomberg, the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) and its partners are about to launch a real-value transaction test for the digital cross-border payment project Project Agorá. This project involves the BIS, seven central banks, and more than 40 regulated institutions, including the New York Fed, the European Central Bank, the Bank of Japan, the Bank of England, as well as JPMorgan, UBS, Deutsche Bank, and others.The prototype adopts the concept of a "unified ledger," utilizing blockchain technology to complete interbank transfers between different countries in seconds, trading in an "atomic" manner. The system retains existing sanctions enforcement and anti-money laundering screening mechanisms. The BIS stated that tokenization can safely and effectively address the inefficiencies of wholesale cross-border payments. The Bank of Canada has joined the project, and more private institutions are expected to join as well.

The cryptocurrency market was at a critical juncture on Wednesday. After failing to break through $78,000 on Tuesday, Bitcoin's price has fallen below the $76,000 "bear market boundary" defined by Tom Lee, now approaching the support level of $75,000. Ethereum also retreated after reaching $2,150 on Tuesday, falling towards the $2,000 support, and then rebounding around $2,050. AI concept tokens RENDER, FET, and NEAR have given back most of their gains from Tuesday.Market performance diverges significantly from U.S. stocks. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 index futures both hit all-time highs, rising about 0.3%. In the derivatives market, cryptocurrency futures trading volume surged 54% to $201 billion within 24 hours, with liquidation volume skyrocketing by 87%, but this mainly reflects the market's restart after the U.S. holiday. Bitcoin open interest climbed to 740,000, with a negative cumulative trading volume difference over 24 hours, indicating that traders are actively shorting through market orders. Ethereum's open interest reached a historic high of 15.57 million, but the trading volume difference is also negative, suggesting that traders are shorting contracts to bet on deeper declines after the critical technical support trendline was breached. The 30-day implied volatility index for Bitcoin rebounded from a year-to-date low, rising nearly 3% to 37.35%, indicating that the market is beginning to seek protection against potential price declines.

According to Caixin, the "Global Payments Report 2026" released by global payment technology and software company Global Payments indicates that digital wallets account for more than half of global online transaction volume and one-third of offline transactions. Digital wallets can flexibly integrate different payment methods, including cryptocurrencies. The report predicts that direct cryptocurrency payments will become the fastest-growing online payment method, with a compound annual growth rate of 16% from 2025 to 2030. This means that by 2030, the volume of e-commerce transactions using direct cryptocurrency payments could account for 0.28% of global e-commerce transaction volume, nearly $31 billion.However, despite the global total market value of cryptocurrencies nearing $3.2 trillion by the end of 2025, it remains a relatively marginalized payment method for consumers to merchants. Reports from MRC and Visa show that only 10% of merchants globally accept cryptocurrency payments directly. In 2025, cryptocurrencies will account for only 0.19% of global e-commerce transaction volume, approximately $15 billion.

On May 14, BNB Chain released the "BSC Post-Quantum Cryptography Migration Report," stating that it has completed the migration testing for quantum-resistant cryptography for transaction signatures and the consensus layer, using the NIST standardized post-quantum signature algorithm ML-DSA-44 (Dilithium) and the pqSTARK aggregation scheme.The report shows that BSC has replaced transaction signatures from ECDSA to ML-DSA-44 and switched consensus voting aggregation from BLS12-381 to pqSTARK to address the potential threats posed by future quantum computing to the existing elliptic curve cryptography system. However, post-quantum signatures also significantly increase the on-chain data volume: the size of a single transaction has increased from about 110 bytes to approximately 2.5KB; the block size in a 2000 TPS scenario has increased from about 130KB to around 2MB; and the TPS in the testing environment has decreased by about 40%-50%.BSC stated that the current network bottleneck mainly comes from the larger transaction data propagation, rather than the consensus protocol itself. Meanwhile, the consensus layer aggregation still maintains high efficiency, with pqSTARK achieving a signature compression ratio of about 43:1, and the additional burden on validators remains within a controllable range. The report concludes that existing technology can achieve "quantum-resistant" deployment for blockchain, but future issues related to network bandwidth and data scalability still need to be addressed.
