South Korea plans to cap individual stock leveraged investment at 20%, and will prioritize monitoring the effectiveness of the new policy taking effect on July 31.
According to South Korea’s JoongAng Ilbo, South Korea’s financial regulatory authorities today decided that if overheating in single-stock leverage product investments fails to abate, additional regulatory measures including individual investment caps will be implemented. The authorities are currently focusing on studying a plan to limit individual stock leverage investments to within 20% of total financial investment holdings. Today, Financial Services Commission Chairman Lee Eog-yun stated at a forum that they will first closely monitor the policy effects of supplementary measures such as enhanced margin requirements that took effect on July 31. Lee added that if demand does not sufficiently cool, additional measures will be researched and prepared in advance. It is understood that the plan under study involves setting aggregate management rules, capping the share of individual stock leverage in total financial investment holdings at 20%. For instance, if an investor’s total financial investment holdings amount to 100 million won, they can allocate a maximum of 20 million won to single-stock leverage products.

The user wants me to write a headline for a Lookonchain tweet about an abnormal order that caused liquidations. Let me extract the key information:
- An abnormal order pushed $SKHX below $930
- This triggered over $80M in $SKHX liquidations
- Trader 0xc985 was liquidated
- His position: 2,026 $SKHX ($2.08M) long
- Loss: $260K
Requirements:
- Max 120 characters
- Concise English headline
- Keep tickers ($SKHX), key amounts, names
- No quotes, no hashtag symbols, no trailing period
- ONLY output the headline
Key elements to include:
- $SKHX (the ticker)
- The liquidation amount ($80M or reference to large liquidations)
- Maybe the individual trader loss for human interest
Let me draft options:
1. "Abnormal order triggers $80M+ $SKHX liquidations, trader 0xc985 loses $260K" - Let me count: A-b-n-o-r-m-a-l- -o-r-d-e-r- -t-r-i-g-g-e-r-s- -$-8-0-M-+- -$-S-K-H-X- -l-i-q-u-i-d-a-t-i-o-n-s-,- -t-r-a-d-e-r- -0-x-c-9-8-5- -l-o-s-e-s- -$-2-6-0-K = about 75 characters. Good.
2. "$80M in $SKHX liquidations after abnormal order, trader 0xc985 loses $260K" - about 78 characters
3. "Abnormal $SKHX order triggers $80M liquidations, 0xc985 suffers $260K loss" - about 75 characters
Let me verify the first one stays under 120 and captures the essentials:
"Abnormal order triggers $80M+ $SKHX liquidations, trader 0xc985 loses $260K"
That's clean and includes the key ticker, the large liquidation amount, and the individual trader's loss.
Abnormal order triggers $80M+ $SKHX liquidations, trader 0xc985 loses $260K
An abnormal order briefly pushed $SKHX below $930, triggering more than $80M in $SKHX liquidations. Trader 0xc985 was one of the victims. His 2,026 $SKHX ($2.08M) long position was fully liquidated, resulting in a $260K loss.

HSBC: High-net-worth investors in Singapore and Malaysia still hold allocations to crypto assets, but their funds are shifting to gold, deposits and alternative assets.
HSBC’s *Affluent Investor Snapshot 2026* report shows that global affluent and high-net-worth investors allocated an average of 6% of their portfolios to crypto assets this year, a 1 percentage point drop from 2025, with no clear sign of exiting the asset class. The report notes Singapore-based investors hold 5% of their portfolios in crypto, unchanged from last year, while Malaysian investors’ crypto allocation stands at 6%, also stable. Neither group views crypto as a core wealth holding, instead treating it as part of a diversified investment portfolio. Meanwhile, investors are reducing cash holdings and increasing allocations to other assets: globally, cash and cash equivalents make up 19% of portfolios, down 1 percentage point year-over-year; equity allocations rose to 16%, while fixed income and bonds account for 14%. In Singapore, investors’ top planned asset increases over the next 12 months include time deposits, alternative investments, and gold, with alternative investments seeing notable growth. Malaysian investors favor gold, time deposits, and alternative assets, with the highest planned increase in gold allocations over the coming year. Southeast Asian affluent investors have not abandoned crypto, but amid changing market conditions, its role is shifting from a high-risk growth asset to a satellite holding, forming a diversified portfolio alongside traditional assets like stocks, bonds, insurance, and gold.
