The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the Bank of England (BOE) jointly launched a public consultation on Monday, seeking industry input on the regulation, infrastructure, and market practices of tokenized wholesale financial markets in the UK. This consultation is part of the UK's digital finance market strategy, focusing on tokenized securities and post-trade infrastructure, covering areas such as prudential regulation, tokenized collateral, and settlement tools. Regulators stated that there are significant opportunities in the post-trade processes and collateral management areas for tokenization. The consultation targets banks, investment firms, asset management institutions, central securities depositories (CSD), central counterparty clearing houses (CCP), trading platforms, fintech companies, and others. The current scope mainly involves tokenized bonds, stocks, and fund shares, with potential future expansion. Market participants can submit feedback by July 3. The FCA and the Bank of England plan to publish a feedback document in the summer of 2026 and launch a roadmap for the development of the digital wholesale market within the year.Meanwhile, UK regulators are advancing the "digital securities sandbox" program, with 16 companies having passed the first phase of review and currently testing the issuance, trading, and settlement of tokenized securities. Additionally, the Bank of England has separately released a consultation document on extending the operating hours of the RTGS and CHAPS systems, planning to gradually move towards a near 7×24 hour operating model, with the goal of launching synchronized settlement services by 2028 to support tokenized assets as collateral for central bank operations and central counterparty use.

According to monitoring by PeckShield, Verus's Verus-Ethereum Bridge has been hacked, with lost assets including 103.6 tBTC, 1625 ETH, and 147,000 USDC. The hacker subsequently exchanged the stolen assets for approximately 5402.4 ETH. The attacker's address obtained an initial fund of 1 ETH about 14 hours ago through the mixing protocol Tornado Cash.

On-chain analyst Tom Wan posted on the X platform, stating that the current ETH utilization rate has fallen below 90%, and the lending APY has dropped to 1.9%. Since the rsETH LayerZero cross-chain bridge was attacked, the deposit scales of wstETH and weETH have decreased by approximately $1.2 billion and $1.76 billion, respectively.As the wstETH/weETH circular leverage strategy returns to profitability, the market's focus shifts to whether the demand for ETH circular leverage will return or if funds will continue to observe or flow to protocols like Spark and Morpho.

The open-source data visualization tool Grafana stated on platform X that it recently discovered an unauthorized attacker had obtained a token that could access the Grafana Labs GitHub environment and used it to download the code repository.An investigation confirmed that this incident did not involve customer data or personal information leakage, and no impact on customer systems or business operations was found. After the incident, forensic analysis was immediately initiated, and it is believed that the source of the credential leak has been identified. Additional security measures have also been deployed to strengthen environmental protection.Furthermore, Grafana disclosed that the attacker attempted to demand a ransom to prevent the code repository from being made public, but the company ultimately decided to refuse to pay the ransom and will release more information about the incident review after the investigation is completed.

U.S. Judge Margaret M. Garnett in New York postponed the ruling on Aave's emergency application on Wednesday, which aims to unfreeze $71 million in ETH related to the Kelp DAO hacking incident, and requested both parties to submit supplemental briefs before the hearing on June 5. Aave is attempting to reclaim the $71 million in ETH frozen on Arbitrum to assist in the asset recovery efforts from this hacking incident—Kelp DAO suffered losses of up to $293 million from the hack, making it one of the most severe security incidents in the DeFi space this year.However, the U.S. law firm Gerstein Harrow LLP submitted a restraining order to the court in early May, claiming that its client has rights to the aforementioned funds. Aave then filed an emergency motion to lift the freeze, warning that if the funds are not released in a timely manner, it could lead to user liquidations and potentially impact the entire DeFi market. Judge Garnett noted in her ruling that Aave failed to adequately explain how user funds would incur "compound losses" if the restraining order remained in place. She also acknowledged the complexity of the case, the risks faced by the victims, and requested both parties to provide supplemental statements on six key issues, including: whether the hacking transaction is subject to New York state sanctuary principles, the legal distinctions between fraud and theft and what rights the hacker has over the stolen assets, which laws apply to determine the priority of claims for frozen assets, whether constructive trusts are an appropriate remedy, and whether Aave or Arbitrum can identify individual victims and proportionally return assets. Both parties must submit supplemental briefs by May 22.Meanwhile, the overall compensation work for Kelp DAO is progressing. Kelp and Aave announced on Tuesday that the rsETH held by the hacker has been destroyed on Arbitrum, and approximately $278 million in loss tokens will be restored within the next two weeks through the funds of the Aave Recovery Guardian multi-signature wallet. Once the relevant smart contracts are reactivated, all functions of rsETH will return to normal.

As the first federally chartered crypto bank in the United States, Anchorage Digital has stated that it will reduce its involvement in the Global Dollar (USDG) stablecoin alliance and will no longer play a more prominent role as it did previously. Members of the alliance include institutions such as Robinhood, Kraken, Galaxy Digital, OKX, and Visa Inc.Nathan McCauley, co-founder and CEO of Anchorage, stated that the company will adopt "a higher degree of neutrality" in the stablecoin issuance space in the future, avoiding targeted support for any single stablecoin to accommodate its expansion as a white-label issuance and custody platform. He pointed out that as more institutions seek to issue stablecoins through Anchorage (with about 20 potential partners currently), the company needs to reassess its incentive structures and alignment of interests.Currently, USDG is issued by Paxos Digital Singapore and regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore, with a circulation size of approximately $3 billion. Market participants generally believe that stablecoin issuance is entering a new phase of parallel development among multiple institutions and networks.

According to market news, an anonymous crypto whale residing in Puerto Rico has sued Coinbase, accusing the exchange of refusing to return funds stolen in a 2024 hacking incident.The lawsuit is highly similar to a security breach in August 2024, when a crypto user lost over $55 million in DAI stablecoins after falling victim to a phishing attack. The plaintiff claims to have hired several on-chain investigation firms to trace the stolen funds, which were tracked to a Coinbase account. Coinbase confirmed in early December 2024 that it had locked the relevant funds but froze them pending investigation. However, a year and a half later, Coinbase has still not returned the funds, claiming that a court order is needed to release them.The attack was initially identified by on-chain detective ZachXBT, who reported that the hacker created a fake DeFi Saver login page using the "Inferno Drainer" platform, leading the victim to mistakenly hand over control of their wallet to the attacker.

According to CoinDesk, Crypto.com announced that its Chief Marketing Officer Steven Kalifowitz will officially step down on June 30 and subsequently take on the role of CEO advisor.During his nearly six-year tenure, Kalifowitz led the company’s investment of over $1 billion in brand marketing and partnerships, helping Crypto.com grow from a trading app to a globally recognized crypto brand. This includes a $700 million, 20-year naming rights partnership (Crypto.com Arena) and a $100 million advertising campaign in collaboration with Matt Damon.In addition, the company has also established high-exposure partnerships with Formula 1, UFC, and others. This personnel change marks a phased adjustment in Crypto.com's brand strategy.

According to on-chain analyst Specter, the attacker of the Wasabi protocol has transferred all stolen funds into Tornado Cash, completing a centralized mixing operation of approximately $5.9 million in assets.On-chain analysis shows that this attacker and a suspected North Korean-related hacker organization (DPRK) have recently continued to use Tornado Cash to launder stolen funds, including those from KelpDAO and LayerZero, exhibiting a multi-stage complex flow of funds.A typical money laundering path includes: funds first entering the Wasabi Mixer for initial mixing and withdrawal, then cross-chain flowing back to Ethereum, re-entering Tornado Cash for deep mixing, withdrawing to a new wallet, and dispersing to multiple addresses. New tokens are deployed in the new wallets, liquidity is guided to buy and extract liquidity assets, and then cross-chain to the Tron (USDT) system, where funds briefly stay before flowing to OTC-related wallets. On-chain security analysis indicates that this model has become a high-frequency attack money laundering template recently, presenting a combination structure of "mixing + cross-chain + tokenization + OTC exit."Industry security personnel remind that such attacks have shifted from simple theft to systematic engineered money laundering paths, significantly increasing the difficulty of tracking.

According to Cointelegraph, several major banking organizations in the United States have jointly stated that despite senators attempting to prohibit stablecoins from generating yields through the CLARITY Act, the latest wording in the bill still contains loopholes that fail to effectively prevent the outflow of bank deposits and do not adequately protect bank deposits.In a joint statement released, the American Bankers Association, the Bank Policy Institute, the Consumer Bankers Association, the Financial Services Forum, and the Independent Community Bankers of America pointed out that Section 404 of the bill allows crypto platforms to pay users interest or yields similar to bank deposits outside traditional rules, which is a significant loophole that needs to be addressed.Bank representatives warned that if the loophole is not closed, the large-scale adoption of stablecoins could lead to the loss of trillions of dollars in deposits from the U.S. banking system, particularly community banks, and could reduce loans to consumers, small businesses, and agriculture by more than one-fifth.Senator Thom Tillis responded that the current text has reached a compromise: it prohibits rewards on idle balances of stablecoins while allowing crypto platforms to offer other forms of customer rewards, believing this provides a possibility for bipartisan passage of the bill.However, the banking industry stated that it will submit specific amendment proposals to lawmakers in the coming days. The current text of the CLARITY Act was made public last Friday, and the crypto industry, including Coinbase, is pushing for a vote in the Senate next week.
