The People's Court of Gulou District, Fuzhou City recently concluded a dispute arising from investment in virtual currency. Chen transferred 480,000 yuan to Liu for foreign exchange wealth management, and Liu converted the funds into USDT and invested on an overseas platform. After the platform closed, Chen filed a lawsuit in court seeking a refund.The court reviewed the case and found that the transaction model formed a closed loop of receiving RMB, exchanging for USDT, cross-border transfer, and buying and selling foreign exchange, which constitutes a disguised foreign exchange transaction and is suspected of economic crime. The court ruled to dismiss Chen's lawsuit and transferred the relevant materials to the public security authorities for handling, with the Fuzhou Intermediate Court upholding the original ruling. The court reminded that investing in virtual currency violates relevant civil laws of public order and good morals, and any losses arising from this shall be borne by the investor.

Multiple independent sources have confirmed to Caixin that the founding partner and director of a law firm in Chongqing has recently been taken away by relevant authorities. This lawyer is Peng Jing, the founding partner and director of Chongqing Jingsheng Law Firm. There is speculation that she has numerous connections with the officials who have recently fallen from grace.According to analysts, lawyers from law firms are usually not taken away by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, "but Peng Jing has a very large network, and her case involves too many people." On March 20, 2026, Chongqing Mayor Hu Henghua was reported to be under investigation, and on April 17, Luo Lin, a member of the Chongqing Municipal Committee and secretary of the Liangjiang New Area Committee, was also announced to have fallen. Reports from the local political and business circles in Chongqing suggest that the downfall of Hu Henghua and Luo Lin is related to bribery and money laundering through stablecoins, and "Peng Jing may be a key figure, helping others launder money under the guise of collecting legal fees." Sources indicate that in the Hu Henghua case, Lin Kechuang, the son-in-law of Lin Xiucheng, gave Hu Henghua 30.8 million USDT (approximately 210 million yuan, of which 10 million was for exchange fees). After Hu Henghua was investigated, the cold wallet was controlled, and authorities traced the funds from six other cold wallets held by Lin Kechuang; among them, a transfer of 15.5 million USDT that occurred simultaneously with Hu Henghua's was claimed by Lin Kechuang to have been sent to Luo Lin. Luo Lin was taken away by relevant authorities on April 14, 2026, and his home was searched on the evening of April 15, but this cold wallet was not found. Subsequently, authorities found Luo Lin's cold wallet at a third party's home.

Huobi HTX global advisor Sun Yuchen made a significant appearance at the HTX Genesis Hackathon opening ceremony in Hong Kong in an online format, sharing his latest insights on the application prospects of AI Agent technology in the Web3 field and the future development direction of the industry. He pointed out that AI Agent will replace traditional interaction methods and become the core driving force of the next phase of the Web3 ecosystem.He explained that past Web3 applications often came with extremely high learning thresholds and complex on-chain interactions, while the introduction of AI Agent will drive decentralized applications (DApps) to evolve from "manual operation" to "intention-driven" based on natural language. This means that AI Agents can autonomously understand user needs, automatically plan paths, and complete complex on-chain settlements such as cross-chain transactions. This paradigm shift towards intelligence and autonomy will not only greatly unleash on-chain productivity but also become a new breakthrough point to break the bottleneck of Web3 user growth and lead the industry toward true mass adoption.It is reported that the HTX Genesis Hackathon is hosted by HTX DAO and B.AI, co-hosted by TinTinLand and OpenCity, attracting numerous developer communities, investment institutions, project parties, trading platforms, and public chain ecosystems to participate.
