Gate officially released the June 2026 Wealth Management Monthly Report, providing a comprehensive review of the June cryptocurrency market trends and the performance of platform wealth management products. The report shows that the cryptocurrency market continued its downward trend in June, with both BTC and ETH recording a monthly decline of about 20%. Market funds leaned more towards caution and risk aversion; the total market capitalization of the cryptocurrency market dropped from approximately $2.30 trillion to $2.17 trillion. Continuous outflows of institutional ETF funds weakened the marginal buying pressure on BTC and became one of the important factors for its breach of key support and the weakening of market sentiment, with overall risk appetite significantly cooling compared to the previous period.In terms of product performance, the overall scale of Yubi Treasure remained stable in June, fluctuating narrowly in the range of 1.5 to 1.6 billion USDT; the total issuance of GUSD decreased from about 191.9 million at the beginning of the month to about 182.3 million at the end of the month, with the annualized yield maintaining at 2.8% to 3.0%, reflecting strong stability. Among advanced products, the Gate dual-currency investment low-buy strategy with a 0-day term achieved an APY of 295%, significantly higher than the market average of 166%; the Gate quantitative fund continued to exhibit stable returns and low drawdown characteristics, with the "Interstellar Hedge (USDT)" cumulative return leading at 18.7%. With the acceleration of stock allocations following the listing of Korean stocks, by the end of June, Korean stocks accounted for about 75% of the overall holdings, with the top ten holdings focusing on global semiconductor and technology growth assets, with SK Hynix ranking first. The report suggests that in a volatile market, stable returns, quantitative strategies, and diversified asset allocation remain important directions for wealth management.

According to Coindesk, Giselle Lai, Director of Fidelity International for the Asia-Pacific region and Digital Asset Strategist, stated that the most attractive long-term use case for tokenized funds for large global institutions is not 24/7 liquidity, but balance sheet management.Lai pointed out that global institutions often need to hold cash in multiple jurisdictions, manage currency exposure, and meet regulatory requirements, while these bank deposits often do not generate returns. Compared to traditional account systems, tokenized tools can provide 24/7 interest, enhance fund transfer efficiency, and better serve institutional liquidity and collateral management needs.He also mentioned that current tokenized products are primarily applied in investment scenarios, with the most popular being tokenized money market funds that primarily use U.S. Treasury bonds as the underlying asset. What institutional investors are truly concerned about is not the "token" itself, but whether it can help asset management become faster and cheaper.

According to CoinDesk, the Office of the Prosecutor General of Ukraine announced that it has transferred over $8.3 million worth of USDT to a cryptocurrency wallet controlled by the country's asset recovery agency ARMA (National Agency for the Search, Tracking, and Management of Assets). This marks the first successful inclusion of seized cryptocurrency assets into national management in Ukraine's history.The transfer was made based on a court order and stems from an investigation by the National Bureau into an international hacker organization. The funds involved came from a wallet belonging to a member of this organization, which has been accused of attacking individuals and businesses in Europe and the United States to steal data and extort money. The proceeds were laundered in Ukraine through high-value assets such as real estate and vehicles. Currently, four suspects have been detained but have not yet been sentenced, with estimated losses exceeding $100 million.The report notes that the funds are currently only held in custody and have not been formally confiscated, as confiscation requires a court ruling. At this time, Ukraine is considering establishing a strategic reserve for cryptocurrency, similar to previous ideas from the United States. The reserve funds would come from confiscated cryptocurrency assets in criminal and civil cases, rather than being purchased on the open market.
