The U.S. CFTC and the Department of Justice are suing the state of Illinois for preventing it from regulating prediction markets.

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the Department of Justice have filed a lawsuit against the state of Illinois, Governor JB Pritzker, Attorney General Kwame Raoul, and the state's gaming regulators, alleging that the state has no authority to regulate prediction markets regulated by the CFTC. This lawsuit stems from Illinois' previous demands that Kalshi, Polymarket, and Crypto.com cease their operations, while the federal government argues that such event trading contracts are governed by federal derivatives laws, and that state intervention infringes on the CFTC's exclusive regulatory authority.

Coinbase Receives Conditional Approval from the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to Establish a National Trust Company

Coinbase has received conditional approval from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) to establish the Coinbase National Trust Company. Coinbase emphasizes that this approval does not involve becoming a commercial bank, accepting retail deposits, or engaging in fractional-reserve banking. Rather, it provides a unified federal regulatory framework for its long-standing custody and market infrastructure businesses. The company states that while retaining its New York State NYDFS BitLicense and state trust license, the OCC custody trust license will provide a compliance basis for developing new products such as payments.

European Central Bank official: Digital euro is gaining momentum and is expected to launch in July 2029.

European Central Bank (ECB) Executive Board member Piero Cipollone stated that the digital euro project is "moving well" and could be launched in July 2029. He noted sufficient consensus at the legislative level and increasing interest from banks in participating in the pilot program. The ECB plans to launch a 12-month pilot phase in the second half of 2027. Cipollone anticipates that if legislation is in place by the end of this year, the digital euro will be issued in July 2029, and he currently sees no major obstacles. ECB officials have previously expressed concerns about reliance on US payment companies such as Visa and Mastercard, as well as the US dollar-pegged stablecoin supported by Trump.

In addition to Illinois, the US CFTC has also sued Connecticut and Arizona over the issue of regulatory power over prediction markets.

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), in conjunction with the Department of Justice, has filed lawsuits against the states of Connecticut and Arizona, arguing that the federal government has exclusive jurisdiction over prediction markets. The CFTC claims it "first formally recognized" event contracts in 1992 and that Congress has granted it sole regulatory authority over the market. Previously, betting regulators in these three states issued stop-loss orders to prediction platforms such as Kalshi and Polymarket, arguing that event contracts violated state gambling laws. The CFTC chairman stated that these states' "aggressive and excessive" overreach has led to market uncertainty. Currently, 11 states have taken legal action against prediction markets, and congressional lawmakers are pushing forward proposals to ban sports-related event contracts.

Trump appoints Todd Blanche, author of the crypto enforcement memo, as acting Attorney General.

US President Trump dismissed Attorney General Pam Bondi and appointed his former personal lawyer, current Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, as acting Attorney General. Blanche, who previously represented Trump in criminal cases in New York, ordered the disbandment of the Justice Department's National Cryptocurrency Enforcement Team after taking office as Deputy Attorney General and signed a memorandum instructing prosecutors to cease pursuing regulatory violations in the crypto industry. According to disclosed documents, Blanche held various cryptocurrencies worth approximately $159,000 to $485,000 at the time of signing the enforcement memorandum, including Bitcoin, Solana, Cardano, Ethereum, Polygon, Polkadot, Quant, and Coinbase stock, violating ethical guidelines and his previous promise to divest assets before dealing with crypto-related matters.

Project Updates

Safe launches Safenet, a secure transaction network that converts SAFE tokens into secure staking assets.

Safe, a non-custodial multisignature wallet provider, has launched Safenet, a decentralized transaction security network. SAFE holders can delegate their tokens to six independent validators (including Greenfield, Gnosis, Safe Labs, Rockaway, Blockchain Capital, and Core Contributors GmbH) to review proposed transactions according to preset security rules. Upon approval, the validators issue cryptographic proofs, which, along with the Safe Guard module, prevent the execution of unverified transactions. Each genesis validator must stake at least 3.5 million SAFE, marking SAFE's expansion from a governance token to a staking asset with economic uses. Specific staking rewards, penalties, and fee mechanisms are still pending a vote by SafeDAO.

The dYdX community funded the DAO by using 10 million USDC from its insurance fund.

The dYdX community has passed Proposal No. 372, agreeing to allocate 10 million USDC from the Insurance Fund to fund the DAOs, with 2.5 million allocated to Operations SubDAO, 5 million to Treasury SubDAO, and 2.5 million to the dYdX Foundation. The proposal received 66.34% participation, with 77.96% voting in favor based on account results. After the allocation, the Insurance Fund will retain approximately 7 million USDC as a protocol safety buffer.

It also provides functions such as SoFiUSD minting and burning. Businesses can manage traditional and on-chain cash flows through a unified interface and access payment infrastructure via API. Initial partners include Galaxy, Wintermute, Fireblocks, BitGo, Cumberland, Bullish, B2C2, and Jupiter, with the underlying blockchain network being Solana.

Telegram's built-in wallet app, Wallet, has launched perpetual contract trading functionality, powered by Lighter.

Telegram's in-app wallet, Wallet in Telegram, has announced the launch of its Perpetuals perpetual contract feature, allowing users to open long and short positions directly within Telegram. This feature covers over 50 markets, including metals, stocks, crude oil, and cryptocurrencies, supporting leverage up to 50x and a minimum entry amount of $1. Powered by Lighter, the product displays real-time profit and loss, margin, and liquidation price, and allows users to set stop-loss and take-profit orders. The project team cautions that crypto investments carry a high level of risk, and service may be limited in some regions.

Coinbase has partnered with several organizations to establish the x402 Foundation, which is managed by the Linux Foundation.

Coinbase's neutral internet payment protocol x402 will be migrated to the Linux Foundation and operated as an independent foundation, the "x402 Foundation." Amazon Web Services, American Express, Ant International, Base, Circle, Google, KakaoPay, Mastercard, Microsoft, Polygon Labs, Shopify, Solana Foundation, and Visa will join as new members in protocol governance. Named after the HTTP 402 "Payment Required" status code, x402 is positioned as an open and neutral payment standard supporting crypto assets and traditional payment channels (credit cards, ACH, bank transfers, etc.), aiming to provide infrastructure for automated payment scenarios in the "proxy economy."

Polymarket integrates with Pyth Pro to provide real-time quotes for traditional assets.

Prediction market platform Polymarket has integrated Pyth Pro as its data source for traditional asset contracts, initially covering intraday price changes and closing prices for gold, silver, and major stock index ETFs. Pyth Pro provides price data directly from institutions such as Jump Trading, Jane Street, and Cboe via WebSocket. Polymarket samples and displays this data every second as real-time price curves and "price to beat" indicators for settling high-volume positions. This collaboration allows Polymarket to access institutional-grade market data for gold, silver, WTI crude oil, natural gas, and several US stocks (such as TSLA, COIN, and PLTR) through a single integration, without relying on traditional high-priced data providers. The platform plans to expand to include more asset and contract types in the future.

Yupp.ai announced that it will be officially shut down on April 15th, allowing users to download chat data.

The AI model evaluation platform yupp.ai will officially shut down on April 15th. New registrations and chat logs have been discontinued; users can only view historical chat logs and download data as instructed. Yupp stated that since its launch last June, it has provided multi-model comparison and evaluation services to over 1.3 million users and numerous paid AI labs, but failed to achieve a sufficiently strong product-market fit. Furthermore, with the rapid improvement of model capabilities and the migration of user workflows to agent systems that connect to tools, memory, and external services, the importance of chat-based crowdsourced model evaluation has declined. Therefore, the company has decided to gradually cease operations.

X plans to enable automatic account lockout verification for accounts that post encrypted content for the first time.

Nikita Bier, product manager for X, stated that the platform is developing a new mechanism: if a user posts cryptocurrency-related content in their account history for the first time, it will trigger an automatic account lockout and identity verification process to combat phishing and fraudulent activities. She claims this move could reduce the motivation for such activities by 99%, especially given the continued prevalence of phishing emails.

Circle launched a packaged Bitcoin token, cirBTC, backed by Bitcoin at a 1:1 ratio.

Circle has launched cirBTC, a Bitcoin-wrapped token backed 1:1 by Bitcoin, designed to provide institutions with a "highly secure and neutral version of wrapped BTC." The token will initially be issued on the Ethereum mainnet and Circle's Arc Layer 1 platform, and will fully integrate with Circle's existing technology stack, including the Arc blockchain and the Circle Mint platform. Circle states that cirBTC is suitable for over-the-counter trading platforms, market makers, lending protocols, and other institutions that require a neutral, secure, and high-performance tokenized version of Bitcoin. Currently, several Bitcoin-wrapped tokens exist on the market, including cbBTC issued by long-term partner Coinbase, while the earliest wBTC saw some institutions reduce their exposure due to involvement with entities associated with Justin Sun.

For the Q2 airdrop, claiming before May 24 will incur a penalty; however, it can be claimed without penalty between May 24 and October 15. Tokens not claimed by the deadline will be permanently burned.

Bitcoin mining company MARA lays off 15% of its workforce as it strategically shifts its focus to energy and digital infrastructure.

Bitcoin mining company MARA is laying off approximately 15% of its workforce, affecting full-time employees and contractors across multiple departments. CEO Fred Thiel stated in an internal memo that this move is a strategic adjustment rather than a purely financial decision, as the company is transforming from a pure Bitcoin mining company into an energy and digital infrastructure company. Affected employees will receive one month of paid leave, 13 weeks of severance pay, and full compensation for any unused vacation time. MARA had previously partnered with Starwood and Exaion to convert approximately 1 GW of its Bitcoin mining infrastructure into AI computing power facilities. MARA recently sold 15,133 bitcoins for $1.1 billion to repay $1 billion in convertible bonds. The company projects a net loss of $1.3 billion by 2025.

Dmail Network will be gradually shutting down starting May 15th; users need to export their emails before then.

Decentralized email project Dmail Network will gradually cease all services starting May 15, 2026. Users must export their email content and apply to cancel their accounts before then; all data will be completely deleted afterward. Dmail stated that due to factors such as the high cost of decentralized infrastructure, the failure to establish a viable commercialization path, the lack of practical use cases for its token, and the loss of core team members, the project could not achieve healthy and sustainable operation. The team foresaw this outcome, similar to the transformations of projects like Lens and Friend.tech. Founded in 2021, Dmail was committed to providing privacy-preserving decentralized email services that were not controlled by a single entity.

Opinions & Analysis

Grayscale: The crypto market showed resilience in March, but there is still a long way to go before recovery.

In its latest report, Grayscale stated that the crypto market showed resilience in March, but still has a long way to go before a full recovery. Bitcoin's net return in March was only 1.81%, avoiding a six-month losing streak. Hyperliquid's HIP-3 perpetual futures contracts were the best-performing sector in March, rapidly growing from zero to record daily trading volume, with oil futures becoming a new liquidity hotspot. Hyperliquid's HIP-3 contracts accounted for 40% of the platform's trading activity. The SEC issued several rulings this month regarding the legal status of crypto assets as securities. Grayscale pointed out that the oil price shock triggered by the Iran war was a major factor affecting the crypto market, with oil prices rising 63% per barrel, raising inflation concerns and expectations of interest rate hikes in major economies.

IMF: Tokenized finance may reshape the global financial system and introduce new systemic risks.

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has warned that tokenized finance could fundamentally reshape the global financial system, while introducing new systemic risks due to its speed and automation. Tokenization shifts trust from traditional intermediaries to smart contracts and shared ledgers, enabling near-instant settlement and 24/7 market activity, but also eliminating the buffers found in traditional finance. Automatic margin calls, real-time settlement, and programmable fund flows could accelerate liquidity stresses during market volatility, and smart contract vulnerabilities could spread rapidly, affecting multiple participants. Currently, tokenized real-world assets amount to approximately $27.5 billion, with US Treasury products dominating (over $12 billion). The IMF emphasizes that the long-term impact of tokenization depends on risk management at both the technological and regulatory levels.

Monad, a co-founder of Monad, released a 10-item security self-check checklist for protocols, emphasizing key risks associated with multisignature and access control.

Monad co-founder Keone Hon released a protocol security self-checklist on the X platform, focusing on core issues such as management permissions, fund security, and multi-signature mechanism design. The checklist includes ten key points: identifying which administrator functions might lead to fund losses; ensuring all related operations have time locks; establishing a real-time monitoring mechanism; providing timely alerts when administrator functions are called; reviewing all privileged accounts and using multi-signature (k-of-n) structures whenever possible; defining signature threshold parameters; ensuring multi-signature signers use independent cold devices solely for signing operations and follow best practices (such as independently verifying transaction hashes); setting rate limits for withdrawals and avoiding control by the same multi-signature; ensuring employee devices have malware detection and management capabilities; and pre-setting extreme scenarios where multi-signature signers are compromised, reverse-engineering potential attack paths from the attacker's perspective, and optimizing system design accordingly to increase attack costs and complexity. According to previous reports, a week before suffering a $285 million hack, Drift Protocol changed its multisignature mechanism to "2/5" (1 old signer + 4 new signers) and did not set a timelock. The attackers then gained administrator privileges, forged CVT tokens, manipulated oracles, disabled security mechanisms, and transferred high-value assets from the liquidity pool.

Important data

Hyperliquid continues to gain market share on CEXs, with its perpetual contract market share approaching 6%.

Hyperliquid's market share in the perpetual contract market has climbed to nearly 6%, a significant increase from approximately 3.5% a year ago, with monthly trading volume approaching $200 billion. This growth occurred during a period of decline in overall exchange trading volume since its peak in August 2025, indicating that Hyperliquid is truly capturing market share. On-chain competitors such as dYdX and GMX have yet to reach Hyperliquid's level in terms of trading volume growth or product expansion. Hyperliquid's expansion into non-crypto assets such as oil is a significant part of its growth, and its 24/7 trading model eliminates the gap risk caused by traditional market opening time restrictions. If decentralized perpetual contract platforms can continue to expand liquidity and asset coverage, their reach will extend far beyond native crypto trading volume, reaching the multi-trillion-dollar traditional derivatives market.

In March, hedge funds withdrew from global stock markets at the fastest pace in 13 years.

In March, hedge funds sold off global stocks at their fastest pace in 13 years, and the second fastest pace since Goldman Sachs began collecting data in 2011.

XPL surges then crashes 40%: Five insider tips reveal a trader who profited $1.6 million and exited the market.

This morning, the price of the XPL token fluctuated wildly. From 1:00 AM to 5:00 AM, XPL surged by 42%, reaching a high of $0.167; however, starting at 5:10 AM, the price plummeted by over 40% in less than five minutes, falling below $0.12 and erasing all of the day's gains. Before the price surge, five new addresses on Hyperliquid simultaneously deposited funds at 1:00 AM, each transaction exceeding $200,000, totaling approximately $1.292 million. These addresses then heavily leveraged their positions to open long positions in XPL, seemingly in coordination with other platforms' spot trading to drive up the price. During this period, the five addresses reaped substantial profits, more than doubling their initial investment. Between 4:30 and 4:40 AM, the five addresses withdrew all released margin and profits, causing the liquidation price to rise sharply, nearing liquidation. At 5:10 AM, the five addresses were simultaneously liquidated at an XPL price of approximately $0.12971, causing the price to plummet, seemingly in coordination with spot trading to dump their holdings. The five addresses collectively profited approximately $1.602 million. During the price surge, several large short sellers were targeted and their short positions were liquidated, resulting in a total of over $32.99 million in closed short positions.
