On May 30, the U.S. Department of the Treasury and its Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) issued an updated statement explicitly barring Americans from entering any "safe passage" agreements with the Iranian government or the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), even if no payment is involved. Recently, Iran established the "Persian Gulf Strait Management Authority" — an entity aimed at collecting transit fees from ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz in exchange for security services. The U.S. has designated this authority as a sanctioned target, warning that any dealings with it carry significant sanction risks. The Treasury’s statement emphasizes that securing "safe passage guarantees" from Iran, regardless of whether payment is made, is strictly forbidden. The U.S. maintains a tough, uncompromising sanctions stance against Iran, rejecting all forms of "pay-for-protection" arrangements and similar transactions.

May 30th: Developer donnoh revealed an upgrade-related vulnerability has left Base Network’s state updates stuck for over 30 hours. Most regular users haven’t felt major disruptions because withdrawing Base to the Ethereum mainnet requires a roughly 7-day challenge period. Later, Base’s official status page confirmed the issue comes from a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) enclave malfunction, which interrupted the network’s governance proposal process and triggered the state update holdup. Officials noted Base’s mainnet withdrawal functionality is delayed, but the team is actively working on a fix—no other core network components were directly impacted, per the update.

May 30th — Jonas Myrdal, a prosecutor with Sweden’s Economic Crime Authority, stated that the premature leak of news about Sivers Semiconductors (ticker: SIVE) exploring a U.S. dual listing via an anonymous X account (with 200,000 followers) was no coincidence. The post went up approximately 48 hours before SIVE officially confirmed the development in a press release. Myrdal made clear the information was leaked, noting the same X account had previously promoted SIVE, leading to the stock price surging by several hundred percentage points in a short period. He also recommended Nasdaq investigate the incident and report any suspected violations related to market abuse. Recently, self-proclaimed "Stock Oracle" Serenity has repeatedly endorsed SIVE, maintaining an extremely bullish stance on the company. Serenity labeled SIVE the "most attractive CPO/Photonics investment target" and explicitly confirmed they "have not sold a single share and do not intend to sell any." This market expert
