Police in Dongguan, China have successfully foiled a virtual currency investment and financial fraud case, saving 1.1 million yuan in cash belonging to local residents.

1 hours ago

Police in Hengli, Dongguan, China recently foiled a virtual currency investment fraud case, safeguarding 1.1 million yuan in cash five minutes before the victim was set to complete an offline transaction with scammers, preventing significant financial losses. According to reports, the victim, identified only as Ms. Li (alias), met an unfamiliar netizen online who lured her with a "virtual currency internal investment channel"—promising low entry barriers and high returns—and created forged profit screenshots to fake investment gains. The scammers then induced Ms. Li to withdraw 1.1 million yuan in cash for delivery, claiming the funds were needed for "offline cash exchange for US dollar top-ups". After detecting risk clues, Dongguan police promptly activated their early warning and interception mechanism, dispatched officers to the bank to dissuade Ms. Li, and successfully blocked the fund transfer ahead of the transaction.

Bitcoin’s BIP-110 fork faced collapse just 8 hours after its launch due to insufficient hash rate support, with only two blocks generated.

Nodes supporting BIP-110 rejected blocks lacking the required support signal at block height 961,632, triggering a Bitcoin fork. However, the new chain only produced two blocks roughly eight hours after launch, with no indications that miners plan to keep it running. According to BIP-110 monitors, the forked branch is currently at block height 961,633, while Bitcoin’s main chain has reached block height 961,681. BIP-110 is a one-year rule adjustment proposal aimed at restricting non-financial data writes in Bitcoin transactions, including uses like Ordinals inscriptions. The proposal requires at least 1,109 blocks (55%) to signal support over a roughly two-week cycle of 2,016 blocks to activate, but only 51 blocks (2.53%) supported it in the prior cycle.

Bitwise CIO: Bitcoin could reach $1.3 million by 2035, with institutions driving its growth.

Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan told CoinDesk in an interview that Bitcoin could reach $1.3 million by 2035, with massive institutional capital inflows as the key driver. Hougan noted that global institutions manage $100 trillion to $200 trillion in assets; even a 1% allocation to Bitcoin would translate to $1 trillion to $2 trillion in funds, enough to support the price target. Retail investors have pushed the crypto market from scratch to a $2 trillion market capitalization, and over the next decade, institutional capital will lead growth, driving the total market cap to even higher levels.

Solana Perpetual DEX FlashTrade Shuts Down, Solana Co-Founder Responds

Anas, founder of Solana perpetual contract protocol FlashTrade, announced the shutdown of the project and is seeking to sell its existing tech stack to compensate FAF holders. He attributed the shutdown to factors including severe internal team disagreements, market contraction, and prolonged lack of profitability, stating, "What hurt me the most personally was the Solana Foundation’s disregard for us," adding that the foundation only fully supports one team as it believes this aids Solana’s success. Anas also emphasized he does not blame the foundation for the project’s failure, noting he was overly emotional about the situation. Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko responded shortly after, stating the foundation cannot determine a product’s success; its main role is to assist with go-to-market (GTM) efforts and expand exposure during product launches, and whether attention translates to users ultimately depends on the product itself.

Grayscale: Probability of CLARITY Act passing within the year is low.

Grayscale Research Head Zach Pandl published a note stating that due to Senate scheduling and election-year political factors, the CLARITY Act is now unlikely to pass this year. Pandl noted that the bill’s failure would not immediately impact the development of Bitcoin, major blockchains, and stablecoin payments. Regulators including the SEC are expected to fill regulatory gaps through subsequent rules, particularly in the tokenized securities sector. However, the lack of a comprehensive market structure regulatory framework may drive more new investment and development activities to shift outside the United States.
