Сообщение ChainCatcher, что группы SBI, DigiFT и Startale завершили совместную проверку концепции, демонстрируя полный жизненный цикл токенизированных ценных бумаг с использованием стабильной валюты иены JPYSC в среде тестовой сети Ethereum, включая мгновенные расчеты по подписке на фонды и автоматическое распределение дивидендов на блокчейне.Группа SBI и DigiFT продвигают токенизацию фонда SBI Japan High Dividend Equity Fund, который управляется SBI Asset Management, с объемом активов около 1,3 миллиарда долларов, являясь одной из основных публичных акций Японии.

According to The Block, Standard Chartered Bank's Head of Digital Asset Research Geoffrey Kendrick stated that Strategy's decision to reduce its holdings by 32 bitcoins last week may mark the beginning of a new phase of "outperformance" for Ethereum relative to Bitcoin. Kendrick pointed out that although the scale of the reduction is "very small," against the backdrop of Bitcoin's decline on that day, ETH/BTC experienced a significant upward movement rarely seen in recent years. He expects ETH/BTC to rise to about 0.04 by the end of this year, currently around 0.028. Kendrick maintains his price targets of $4,000 for ETH by the end of the year and $40,000 by 2030, and stated that the Ethereum treasury can "sell coins with zero necessity" through approximately 3% staking yields, making it easier to achieve a higher net asset multiple (mNAV) and financing capability compared to the Bitcoin treasury.

According to official news from Optimism, the OP mainnet has adjusted its transaction sorting rules for the first time starting today. For many years, the sorter only used the "highest priority Gas fee first" mechanism, and now a new priority sorting option based on staking has been added.This experiment will last for four weeks (until June 23) and was approved by the Optimism governance body earlier this month, allowing users to participate voluntarily. The participation condition is to stake no less than 100,000 OP to the PolicyEngine Staking contract.The experiment will be conducted in two phases: the first phase (Week 1) will use FIFO (first in, first out) sorting, and exceeding the minimum staking amount will not affect priority; the second phase (Weeks 2-4) will change to a priority Gas multiplier mechanism weighted by staking duration, where the longer the staking time, the higher the priority.The transaction sorting rules for users who do not participate in the experiment will remain unchanged, and the PGA mechanism will continue to operate as usual.

According to a report by the blockchain analysis platform Chainalysis, the economic and financial police department of Foggia, Italy, recently uncovered a tax evasion case. The individuals involved are suspected of using the Bitcoin Ordinals protocol and the BRC-20 token standard to create and resell tokens, concealing approximately $1.1 million (€1 million) in capital gains on-chain, with the profits continuously reinvested into new inscription operations.Chainalysis pointed out that although such emerging technological means may seem covert, the inherent transparency of blockchain leaves a permanent and immutable record of transactions. Blockchain intelligence can effectively track tax evasion by reconstructing financial networks and cross-referencing exchange declaration data. The agency warned that as new categories of digital assets continue to emerge, the gap between real on-chain wealth and declared tax status will become a key investigation target for global law enforcement agencies.
