This feature is now available to eligible contract users.

According to the official website of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), SEC Commissioner Hester M. Peirce delivered a speech at the "Regulating the PETshop Series" seminar at Georgetown University Law Center, calling for the inclusion of Privacy-Enhancing Technologies (PETs) in the financial regulatory framework.She criticized the current regulatory approach for being overly inclined towards government surveillance, arguing that technology should serve to protect personal privacy rather than expand the scope of surveillance, and pointed out that blockchain public wallet addresses can reduce the risk of personal information leakage for investors while meeting compliance requirements.Peirce also invited technology teams that can minimize personal information collection while meeting KYC and anti-money laundering regulatory requirements to actively collaborate with the SEC's Crypto Task Force.

According to CoinDesk, the latest research from Project Agorá, led by the Bank for International Settlements (BIS), shows that tokenization technology is expected to significantly improve settlement speed and reconciliation efficiency in cross-border payments, while reducing transaction failures and operational risks.The project involves BIS collaborating with seven central banks and over 40 financial institutions, including the New York Fed, Bank of England, Bank of Japan, and Swiss National Bank. The research suggests that tokenizing central bank reserves and commercial bank deposits can support "atomic settlement" across currencies and jurisdictions, allowing transactions to "either complete simultaneously or fail simultaneously," thereby reducing the credit and execution risks commonly associated with cross-border payments.Currently, Project Agorá has completed the simulation testing phase and plans to enter the "real-value" trading testing phase to explore on-chain settlement applications for certain currencies and institutions in a real funds environment.

According to official news, WonderFi announced on Monday that the Canadian investment regulatory organization has approved Robinhood's acquisition of the digital asset products and services company WonderFi. Robinhood has stated that this transaction will help deepen its ability to offer programmable financial products.

The transaction was originally scheduled to be completed in the second half of last year, but both parties later extended the closing date to June 1 of this year to give Robinhood more time to deploy its proprietary technology in Canada and obtain regulatory approval. As reported by PYMNTS last year, this transaction closely follows Robinhood's acquisition of the crypto exchange Bitstamp in 2025 and is interconnected with that acquisition.

Goldman Sachs CEO Solomon wrote in The New York Times that the market's concerns about AI triggering a "massive wave of unemployment" are exaggerated. The U.S. economy will continue to create more new jobs through technological transformation, just as it did during the past industrial revolution and the internet era. Solomon stated that Goldman Sachs expects AI or automation to affect about 25% of existing work hours over the next decade, with significant impacts on white-collar sectors such as banking, accounting, and law. Research from Stanford shows that entry-level positions in highly automated roles like software engineering and customer service have declined by 16% compared to less automated industries.However, he pointed out that AI is also creating new job demands. For example, since 2022, the construction of data centers in the U.S. has generated over 200,000 construction jobs. Goldman Sachs itself may reduce some compliance and account opening positions but will increase hiring for client-facing roles in banking, trading, and asset management. Solomon believes that AI is more likely to enhance productivity rather than directly eliminate 25% of jobs. He stated, "Technological advancement and cultural change do not occur simultaneously; being replaceable does not mean one will necessarily be replaced." He also called for the government and businesses to jointly promote large-scale job retraining to address the structural changes in the workforce brought about by AI.

According to BBX data, the pressure from market regulation suddenly intensified over the weekend, and institutional-level crypto derivatives product lines expanded simultaneously. The core dynamics are as follows:On May 22, James Comer (Republican, Kentucky), Chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, officially issued investigation letters to Kalshi (privately held) and Polymarket (privately held), initiating a formal congressional investigation into insider trading on prediction market platforms. The investigation focuses on two suspicious bets: one betting on the early capture of Venezuelan President Maduro, and another betting on the direction of the Iranian conflict. Both transactions recorded unusually large amounts just hours before the related events were made public. According to media reports, the Wisconsin Attorney General has recently listed Robinhood Markets, Inc. (NASDAQ: $HOOD), along with Kalshi, Polymarket, and Crypto.com, as defendants, accusing them of providing unlicensed sports betting services in Wisconsin. This is the latest escalation of the prediction market facing legal challenges in 13 states to congressional scrutiny. Both Kalshi and Polymarket stated their willingness to cooperate with the committee's investigation, asserting that their platforms have robust anti-insider trading mechanisms.On May 23, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) officially approved a proposal submitted by Nasdaq, Inc. (NASDAQ: $NDAQ) to launch cash-settled Bitcoin index options on its Philadelphia Stock Exchange, which does not involve physical delivery of Bitcoin. This product will allow institutional investors to hedge or invest in Bitcoin price fluctuations through standardized options contracts, filling a market gap for cash-settled Bitcoin index derivatives on regulated exchanges in the U.S. The timing of the approval coincided with significant fluctuations in Bitcoin over the week (with a low of $74,500 and a high rebound to $77,800), reflecting the accelerating release of genuine demand for volatility management tools in the market.

The SFC expressed deep concern about the potential misuse of client accounts for suspicious or illegal transactions, which could exacerbate the risks of money laundering and terrorist financing.The SFC requires all licensed corporations to conduct internal checks as soon as practicable to detect whether any suspicious or forged documents have been accepted for account opening. The SFC also outlined additional measures for licensed corporations when opening and managing accounts for mainland investors.These additional measures include closing investment accounts opened with suspicious or forged documents, closing zero-balance dormant investment accounts, and requiring a written declaration from investors when opening new investment accounts, stipulating that settlements and fund withdrawals can only be conducted through bank accounts held in the investor's own name at qualified banks.

The working group led by the Ethereum Foundation has released a new open standard called "Clear Signing," aimed at addressing the long-standing issue of "blind signing." This new standard is built on the ERC-7730 specification and aims to promote the "WYSIWYS (What You See Is What You Sign)" concept, allowing users to understand the actual execution content of transactions in a unified, readable, and structured manner before signing. This replaces the current common practice of displaying machine-readable but difficult-to-understand low-level transaction information. By using a unified description format, a registry system, and independent verification and auditing mechanisms, the intent of transactions can be clearly expressed and standardized for presentation on wallets.Clear Signing will not change the on-chain transaction structure but will enhance interpretability through off-chain standardized descriptions, thereby improving security without affecting the compatibility of existing protocols.

According to BIT analysis, Circle's stock price surged 16% overnight and is currently approaching the March 2026 high. This week may become a key point for the advancement of the CLARITY Act. The market generally believes that Circle is the most direct beneficiary, and this increase also reflects that the market is pricing in expectations that regulatory uncertainties are likely to ease. It is worth noting that the overall market capitalization of USDC has maintained steady growth recently.This round of increase for Circle more reflects the market's early pricing of potential policy and regulatory benefits rather than a significant improvement in short-term fundamentals. If the regulatory rules for digital assets become clearer, it is expected to not only support Bitcoin but also encourage more institutions to participate in the market.
