Anthropic upgrades Claude's voice mode. Paid users can now choose Opus, Sonnet, and Haiku, no longer limited to the faster but less capable Haiku.Users can switch models during conversations and can also switch to text at any time. Claude defaults to the model selected in the last text chat and calls the fastest version in that series. The voice mode can also access Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Docs, and Slack. Users can have Claude check emails, change schedules, or draft replies, and will request authorization before executing.The new version is now available for testing on mobile, desktop, and web. Free users can only use Haiku and one connection tool. Voice now supports multiple languages including English, Japanese, and Korean, but does not include Chinese at this time. This upgrade mainly enhances model reasoning and tool invocation capabilities. Anthropic has not changed the voice model, so the naturalness of speech and interruption experience may not show significant changes.

Intel released its second-quarter financial report, with revenue of $16.1 billion, a year-on-year increase of 25%, marking the strongest quarterly growth in over fifteen years, exceeding market expectations of $14.4 billion; adjusted earnings per share were $0.42, higher than the expected $0.21. Under GAAP, the net loss was $11 billion, primarily due to a $12.5 billion loss in market value related to the custodial shares under the U.S. government's CHIPS Act agreement.Revenue from the Data Center and AI business (DCAI) was $6.3 billion, a year-on-year increase of 59%; revenue from Client Computing and Physical AI business (CCPG) was $8.9 billion, an increase of 13%; Intel's foundry business revenue was $5.8 billion, an increase of 31%. The company stated that data center orders have exceeded current supply capacity, and it has signed 10 long-term server CPU supply agreements. Gross margin rebounded from 27.5% in the same period last year to 40.4%, with operating cash flow of $7 billion. Intel expects third-quarter revenue to be between $15.8 billion and $16.8 billion, with adjusted EPS of approximately $0.38, all above market expectations. After the financial report was released, Intel's stock price rose about 11% in after-hours trading.

According to Artemis data, Robinhood Chain recorded 323,969 daily active users on July 21, surpassing Base's 274,520, marking the second time it has exceeded Base since the mainnet launch on July 1. On the same day, TVL reached a new high of $588.9 million, a daily increase of 14%, while this metric was still below $5 million at the end of June. Morpho accounted for $260.6 million, or 44% of TVL, while Ethena accounted for 26%.The on-chain stablecoin supply reached $438.8 million, a weekly increase of 30%. The 24-hour trading volume of the spot DEX also exceeded Base at $624 million compared to Base's $603 million. However, the main driver of activity was meme coin trading rather than the tokenized stocks that the chain focuses on, with the market value of tokenized stocks only at $19.3 million. Base still significantly leads in most metrics: DeFi TVL of approximately $4.64 billion is 15 times that of Robinhood Chain, stablecoin supply of $4.84 billion is 11 times that of Robinhood Chain, and perpetual contract trading volume of $255.5 million far exceeds its $13.5 million. Robinhood Markets' stock price rose over 8% on the launch day, closing at $107.55 on July 21.

Famous trader Killa posted that Bitcoin's historical bear markets typically complete a 5-wave adjustment and form two significant peaks. The first peak often occurs after the initial major rebound following the top, known as the "complacency peak," where the market generally believes that the bull market has returned. Subsequently, prices usually continue to decline to new lows. He pointed out that similar structures appeared in the cycles of 2014, 2022, and 2026.After the complacency peak is formed, the market typically experiences a "dead cat bounce" and establishes a phase bottom; as market sentiment deteriorates and short positions concentrate, a short squeeze then drives the price rebound, with the final bottom usually forming after the second significant retest.Killa believes that BTC has currently swept through the bottom formed by the "dead cat bounce" and completed a 5-wave adjustment structure similar to previous cycles. From a structural perspective, the adjustment wave has ended, and the bottom may have already formed. However, he remains cautious about the time cycle. Previous bear markets typically lasted about 365 days before forming the final bottom, while this round, if the bottom has already appeared, has only lasted about 260 days, which is about 100 days earlier than the historical cycle. Currently, he maintains a 50-50 judgment, but compared to significantly making new lows, the likelihood of forming higher lows subsequently is greater.

The Web3 fitness protocol BRT.Fit has released a transparency statement, currently in the product testing and ecosystem validation phase. Application functions and validation methods may be adjusted based on testing results. The test token tBRT is only used for economic model validation and does not represent the official token value, nor does it constitute an investment product or guarantee of future returns. Its "mandatory exercise protocol" is an incentive and commitment mechanism that users voluntarily join, helping to develop exercise habits through verifiable data, without physical compulsion.After the official mainnet launch, core functions such as token staking, rewards, and burning will be executed through on-chain smart contracts, with contract addresses and audit reports to be disclosed gradually. The project plans to support mainstream wearable devices such as Apple Watch, WHOOP, and Xiaomi, Huawei, and will continue to optimize the anti-cheating system. The project team reminds that digital assets carry significant volatility risks, participation does not guarantee returns, and users should refer to official announcements, remaining vigilant against counterfeiting and phishing activities.

According to The Block, the new version of the cryptocurrency ethics clause signed by President Trump has been approved, explicitly prohibiting federal officials (including members of Congress, the President, and the Vice President) from issuing digital assets, with the Department of Justice serving as the primary enforcement agency rather than state attorneys general. This arrangement has sparked controversy among Democrats. Maryland Democratic Senator Angela Alsobrooks stated that "having the Department of Justice enforce the ethics clause is not a serious proposal," and she will not support the bill if the final text remains as such.This clause is the last obstacle to the passage of the Clarity Act, with the controversy focusing on Trump's own meme coin and his family company World Liberty Financial—last month's financial report revealed that Trump received millions of dollars in related income from WLF. The White House has not confirmed the specific wording of the clause but stated that it is working with lawmakers to push the bill through and will place the blame for any obstruction on the Democrats.

The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia, in conjunction with the U.S. Secret Service Washington Field Office, announced that an investigation into multiple international cyber fraud cases has led to the seizure of over $25 million in cryptocurrency, with the funds suspected to be linked to cryptocurrency investment scams targeting residents of the United States and Canada. This operation is part of the U.S. "Scam Center Strike Force," initiated in 2025 by D.C. Attorney Jeanine Ferris Pirro, which has so far recovered assets totaling over $800 million.U.S. prosecutors stated that on July 21, 2026, the D.C. Attorney's Office submitted five civil forfeiture complaints to the U.S. District Court, seeking to confiscate over $25 million in crypto assets recovered from various fraud investigations. Investigators indicated that these cases involve multiple money laundering networks, with victims spread across the globe. Criminal groups lure victims into investing through fake cryptocurrency investment platforms, online romance scams, and other methods, and conceal the source of funds through multi-layered wallet addresses and coin mixing operations.The seized funds are related to five major investigations: in one case, Canadian law enforcement provided the U.S. Secret Service with wallet addresses suspected of transferring illegal proceeds. Investigators froze the relevant addresses and tracked over 270 suspected victim transactions, involving approximately $10.4 million; the second case involves an online romance scam where over 200 victims were defrauded, with illegal funds transferred through hundreds of intermediary wallet addresses, mixing with other victims' funds, totaling about $12.08 million; the third case involves a victim in the Washington D.C. area who participated in a fake cryptocurrency investment project and lost contact with the scammers after a failed withdrawal, with related funds amounting to about $1.23 million; in the fourth case, a victim transferred millions of dollars in cryptocurrency to a fake investment account, and investigators traced part of the funds to six wallet addresses, freezing approximately $2.39 million; in the fifth case, scammers impersonated a "fund recovery" agency, tricking victims into paying fees, with the amount involved being about $285,000. The U.S. Secret Service stated that these cases are still under ongoing investigation, and law enforcement is tracking the suspects behind the fraud networks and will collaborate with international law enforcement agencies to hold them accountable.

The JUST ecosystem officially released the Q2 2026 quarterly report, disclosing the core performance and key progress of the past quarter, from protocol operations, capital management to ecological development.The fourth buyback and burn of JST has successfully concluded, with the cumulative burn amount now accounting for 17.29% of the total supply, further solidifying the deflationary value foundation of the token; at the same time, the regular buyback and burn in Q2 is being advanced in parallel with the new USDJ stability fee special burn, and the funding sources for buyback and burn are continuously expanding, providing a more solid support for the long-term sustainable operation of the mechanism.All businesses within the JUST ecosystem maintain steady growth, and JustLend DAO will continue to enhance governance transparency through the quarterly report mechanism, continuously strengthening the foundation of community trust.

The core project of the TRON ecosystem, JustLend DAO, has completed four consecutive rounds of efficient buyback and burn plans. Over 17% of the total supply of $JST has been permanently removed from circulation, marking a milestone in the deflationary process. All funds for this round were raised in compliance with the established mechanisms approved by the community and were fully transparent on-chain, with burn data verifiable at any time.As the cornerstone of the TRON DeFi ecosystem, JustLend DAO will continue to optimize the buyback and burn mechanism, advancing the continuous deflation of the token economic model as the market evolves, and building a more solid long-term value expectation for JST holders.

JustLend DAO has completed the fourth $JST buyback and burn as planned. This round has cumulatively burned over 355 million tokens, corresponding to 3.59% of the total supply, with a market value exceeding 34.59 million USD.As of now, the cumulative burn progress of JST has reached 17.29% of the total supply, approaching the 20% mark. The funds come from the buyback of protocol revenue in the second quarter and the accumulation of historical stability fees from USDJ. With the implementation of this round of deflation, the market circulation of JST has further contracted, validating the long-term value logic driven by protocol revenue, and solidifying the foundation for the continued prosperity of the community ecosystem.

JustLend DAO has successfully executed the fourth $JST token buyback and burn plan based on the community-approved burn plan proposal.This time, a total of 355,021,530.97 JST was burned, which includes 248,357,799 JST from the buyback and burn in the second quarter of 2026, as well as approximately 106,663,731.97 JST from the historical stability fee accumulation of USDJ.Thus, the JST deflationary mechanism continues to advance steadily, becoming a systematic project driven by real protocol revenue and executed transparently on-chain. This burn further reduces the circulating supply of JST in the market, reflecting the community's strong consensus on the long-term value of the token economic model and injecting stronger confidence into the sustainable development of the ecosystem.

Gate Research Institute recently released the market report titled "June Market Structural Adjustment, Funds Concentrated on Impulsive Volume Opportunities," indicating that in June 2026, the cryptocurrency market weakened again under the multiple influences of macro pressure, institutional capital outflows, and a decline in risk appetite.From the market structure perspective, June did not see a widespread recovery, but rather a localized profit effect driven by a few long-tail assets. About 71% of the top 500 tokens recorded a decline, with only a quarter achieving an increase. BTC, ETH, and most mainstream assets faced pressure simultaneously, while low market cap tokens like CYDX, ANSEM, VELVET, SYN, and CX recorded increases of several times or even hundreds of times due to event catalysts and capital speculation, significantly raising the overall average returns.Volume analysis shows that the average trading volume amplification factor for 450 valid samples is 2.54x, with a median of only 0.49x. Only 17 tokens had a volume increase of more than 3 times, and 8 tokens exceeded 10 times. TEMPLE (289.05x), CX (259.13x), and MTBILL (128.15x) ranked at the top of the volume list.Overall, the market in June is still in a phase of shrinking risk appetite, and true recovery signals still need to be observed in the stabilization of leading assets like BTC and ETH, as well as the re-diffusion of funds from long-tail speculation back to mainstream assets.

According to a statement from the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of New York, two Chinese citizens, Chen Zhuoying (also known as "Jolene," 27 years old, Brooklyn) and Zhang Haojie (also known as "Kevin," 38 years old, Queens), were formally charged on July 16 in federal court in Brooklyn with conspiracy to commit money laundering.According to the allegations, the two managed a money laundering network of over ten people in Queens and Brooklyn from 2020 to 2022, using approximately 45 shell companies and 140 business bank accounts to transfer at least $43 million in proceeds from "pig butchering" investment scams to accounts in China. The "pig butchering" scam contacts victims through social media or instant messaging software, gaining their trust with false high-return investment opportunities before absconding with their money. This case is being jointly investigated by Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), the FBI, IRS-CI, and the U.S. Postal Inspection Service. If convicted, both defendants face a maximum of 20 years in prison.
