According to Cointelegraph, the Australian government plans to replace the 50% capital gains tax discount applicable to assets held for more than 12 months with an inflation-indexed taxation model. If the new regulations are implemented, it may increase the tax burden on long-term investments such as cryptocurrencies.The Australian Financial Review cited informed sources stating that this adjustment will be included in the budget for the fiscal year 2027, which the Albanese government will announce on Tuesday. The report noted that under the current rules, investors holding assets for more than 12 months can enjoy a 50% capital gains tax discount; the proposed plan will change this to taxing the full amount of real gains after deducting inflation. The new regulations are expected to take effect at the end of the fiscal year in July 2027, with a one-year transition period for assets purchased after May 10, 2026.

According to market news, the Korean National Tax Service is building an AI system costing about $2.2 million to track cryptocurrency transactions and crack down on tax evaders, expected to be completed by the end of 2026.The system will integrate exchange trading records with blockchain data to identify suspicious transactions such as money laundering, unreported gifts, and offshore tax evasion, and will expand its tracking scope to non-custodial wallets. The National Tax Service is coordinating implementation details with five major exchanges, including Upbit and Bithumb, with the final tax guidelines expected to be released by the end of 2026.A survey by the Financial Services Commission of South Korea shows that the country has verified over 11 million cryptocurrency investors, but the growth rate has significantly slowed, with the growth rate of tradable accounts dropping from 25% in the first half of 2024 to 3% in the second half. The South Korean government has confirmed that it will impose a 22% tax on cryptocurrency asset gains starting January 1, 2027, with taxes due on the portion of annual gains exceeding approximately $1,800.

According to market news, market analysis indicates that as the U.S. CPI data is about to be released, Bitcoin may face greater downside pressure.The latest forecast from the Cleveland Fed shows that the overall U.S. CPI year-on-year may rise to 3.56%, up from 3.3% in March, which could further strengthen market expectations that the Federal Reserve will find it difficult to cut interest rates in the short term, thereby putting pressure on risk assets like Bitcoin. Although Bitcoin has remained strong after several previous inflation data releases that exceeded expectations, the current market support has weakened compared to before, and the market's sensitivity to the CPI data may rise again. Currently, Bitcoin's daily chart is forming a classic "rising wedge" pattern; if the price breaks below the key support level of around $84,000, it may further test the $70,000 area; if it successfully breaks through the 200-day moving average resistance, it is expected to open up upward space to $90,000 to $95,000.

LayerZero Labs posted on the X platform that the internal RPC used by LayerZero Labs was attacked by the Lazarus Group in the past three weeks, resulting in the compromise of the true source of its DVN (Decentralized Verification Network), while external RPC providers faced DDOS attacks. This incident affected 0.14% of applications and approximately 0.36% of asset value.LayerZero Labs stated that asset security is currently intact, and since April 19, over $9 billion in funds have been completed across chains through the protocol. In response to security risks, LayerZero Labs has stopped providing services for its DVN in a 1/1 configuration, and all default configurations for channels will be migrated to at least a 3/3 or 5/5 multi-DVN mode.Additionally, in response to an incident three years ago where multi-signature holders mistakenly used hardware wallets for personal transactions, LayerZero Labs has removed that signer and changed wallets, while also developing a OneSig custom multi-signature system. LayerZero Labs recommends that developers lock configurations to avoid relying on default settings and plans to launch an asset management platform Console to enhance security monitoring.

Bitcoin fell below the $80,000 mark this week, following a five-day streak of net inflows into spot ETFs, as the market's rebound momentum from February's lows showed signs of cooling. The U.S. April non-farm payroll data added 115,000 jobs, exceeding the expected 62,000, while the unemployment rate remained at 4.3%. Although the overall data was relatively strong, it did not significantly alleviate market concerns about macroeconomic uncertainty; instead, it reinforced expectations that "energy-driven inflation limits the space for interest rate cuts."In terms of capital flow, the spot Bitcoin ETF saw a net outflow of $277 million on Thursday, ending a previous cumulative inflow of $1.69 billion; the Ethereum ETF also recorded a net outflow of $104 million on the same day, indicating a short-term cooling of institutional risk appetite. On the geopolitical front, tensions between Iran and the U.S. have escalated again, prompting the market to reprice the risks in the Strait of Hormuz, leading to a rebound in oil prices, which partially offset the support that previous risk assets received from the decline in oil prices.The derivatives market shows a more long-term hawkish outlook, with interest rate futures pricing in over a 50% probability of rate hikes beyond 2027, suggesting that the easing cycle may be delayed until 2028. On-chain data indicates that the current rise in Bitcoin is primarily driven by institutional spot buying and short covering, with retail participation remaining relatively low, and funding rates maintaining a moderate level, resulting in a weak market momentum structure. Analysts believe that if retail funds do not return, BTC may still face the risk of testing the support range of $75,000 to $78,000.
