  • First spot Solana staking ETF notches $33 million in volume on first day trading: Bloomberg's Balchunas The first spot Solana staking exchange-traded fund, which went live on Wednesday at market open, closed the day with approximately $33 million in trading volume, according to Bloomberg Senior ETF Analyst Eric Balchunas on X. The "REX-Osprey Solana + Staking ETF" closed the day with about $1 million worth of assets under management, Balchunas said, adding that he expects this amount to rise to as much as $10 million during its second day trading based on “today’s volume.” Unlike many of the so-called “staking ETFs” under consideration by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the REX-Osprey ETF was registered under the more rigorous securities guidance called the Investment Company Act of 1940, The Block previously reported. Under the 1940 Securities Act, funds must hold assets with a qualified custodian. REX-Osprey disclosed on Wednesday that it had tapped Anchorage Digital, which is the only federally regulated bank approved to both custody and stake digital assets, as its custodian. "Staking is the next chapter in the crypto ETF story," Anchorage CEO Nathan McCauley said in the announcement. "This launch marks a major step forward in giving institutions full access to the crypto ecosystem in a regulated package." Although the SEC is reportedly considering generic guidance that would streamline ETF listings, on Wednesday the agency’s Deputy Secretary J. Matthew DeLesDernier sent a letter to the New York Stock Exchange saying that a recently greenlit Grayscale ETF was under “review” — a sign the securities watchdog may not be fully comfortable bending its traditionally strict listing standards.

  • Coinbase acquires token operations startup Liquifi in fourth acquisition this year Coinbase has bought Liquifi, a San Francisco-based firm that automates token vesting, distribution, and compliance for crypto startups, in the U.S. exchange’s latest mergers and acquisitions push. Acquiring Liquifi will help Coinbase build an end-to-end issuance stack to ease the process of launching a token, which often involves tangled liquidity and regulatory hurdles, Greg Tusar, VP of Institutional Product, noted in a Wednesday announcement. “Liquifi solves these pain points by automating core workflows while reducing token launch risk,” Tusar wrote. “This acquisition will enable us to partner more effectively with builders earlier in their lifecycle – before tokens are launched or listed.” Coinbase said it would integrate Liquifi’s product suite into Coinbase Prime over time, providing corporate clients with a single venue to issue, custody, and service digital assets. Founded in 2021, Liquifi reportedly raised over $5 million in 2022 from investors like Dragonfly Capital and crypto bigwigs like Haun Ventures founder Katie Haun and Andreessen Horowitz general partner Balaji Srinivasan. The company says it oversees more than $8.5 billion in token value for over 100 customers, including the Uniswap Foundation, OP Labs, and Ethena. It claims it processed $1.7 billion in global token payouts last year. Financial terms of Liquifi’s purchase were not disclosed, but the deal marks Coinbase’s fourth takeover this year. That’s compared to its three acquisitions total in 2024. The deal extends Coinbase’s M&A streak following its record $2.9 billion Deribit acquisition announced in May. America’s largest publicly traded crypto exchange also acquired blockchain-native advertising firm Spindl and Iron Fish, a privacy-centric network. Coinbase stock closed 4% down on Tuesday, and traded around $340 per share in Wednesday’s pre-market hours, according to Yahoo Finance data.
  • Ethereum Community Foundation raises 'millions' to drive value to ETH by funding 'immutable and tokenless' projects The Ethereum ecosystem is getting additional support from a newly launched organization called the Ethereum Community Foundation, according to an announcement from Zak Cole on X. The foundation’s mandate is to support the institutional adoption of Ethereum infrastructure and, ultimately, drive up the price of ETH. Cole told The Block in a direct message that the organization has so far raised millions of dollars worth of ETH, which will be distributed to projects building credibly neutral tech. "We already have a treasury that consists of eth contributed by individual supporters," he said. "All supported integrations must contribute to ETH burn. This aligns institutional throughput with ETH holder value. By prioritizing mechanisms that reduce ETH supply, we ensure that adoption strengthens the monetary integrity of the network," the project wrote on its website. Every project the ECF backs must also be "immutable and tokenless." In particular, the foundation is looking to back real-world asset applications that bring stocks, bonds, real estate, and other assets onchain. It will also look at projects contributing to “public goods,” including fixing mispriced blob space. "Coin voting will dictate grant distribution," Cole said, noting that "all funding decisions and discussions [are] 100% transparent." “Every grant is public. Every project commits to ETH alignment. Every dollar moves the number,” Cole said in an address at the Ethereum Community Conference in Cannes, France. According to Cole’s presentation, the ECF’s first initiative will be the so-called “Ethereum Validator Association,” which aims to give network validators “a say in development” using staked ETH to signal their preferences. The EVA will also fund validator infrastructure. It is unclear who currently supports the effort. Cole noted that additional information will come out in the coming weeks. The Ethereum Community Foundation is being launched amid a period of reorganization for the Ethereum ecosystem, including a dramatic executive shakeup at the Ethereum Foundation and the formation of Etherealize, an institutional marketing and product firm led by Vivek Raman and former EF developer Danny Ryan. After losing market share to competitors like Solana, Ethereum’s spiritual leaders are attempting to transform the network’s public image as well as redirect attention toward the Ethereum mainnet, rather than its ecosystem of Layer 2s. As part of its mandate, the Ethereum Community Foundation will also interact with governments, regulators, and policymakers. "We hoped the EF would course correct, they didn't," Cole said. "So we’re stepping up. We fund projects that burn ETH. We enforce immutability. We reject token games. We align incentives. We show up where Ethereum [Foundation] is missing. This isn’t a fork in the code, it’s a fork in priorities."
  • Bitwise sticks to $200,000 bitcoin forecast for 2025, but tempers ETH and SOL outlook At the halfway point of the year, Bitwise reiterated its call for BTC to reach $200,000 by the end of 2025, but is less sure about new highs for ETH and SOL being on the cards. "It's been a mixed year for crypto asset prices. Bitcoin hit a new all-time high of $112,000 in May thanks to strong ETF flows, growing demand from bitcoin treasury companies, and the creation of a U.S. strategic bitcoin reserve," Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan and Head of Research Ryan Rasmussen said in a Tuesday note to clients, reflecting on a range of predictions the asset manager made for 2025 back in December. "But Ethereum and Solana are down year-to-date, and macro risks have kept the bull market from kicking into overdrive." However, the pair said Bitwise remains optimistic about the prospects for H2 as progress on crypto legislation, growing institutional demand, and stablecoin adoption fuel a strong environment for gains. "The Bottom Line: We're holding firm to our BTC $200k prediction, as there is simply too much institutional demand for BTC to keep prices flat for long," Hougan wrote. "We're less confident on ETH and SOL but hope that rising interest in stablecoins, ETF approvals, and the emergence of ETH and SOL treasury companies can drive prices substantially higher." Bitwise's 2025 crypto predictions — some hits, some misses, and a few still in play Among its other predictions for 2025, Bitwise said its call for Bitcoin ETFs to surpass 2024's $35 billion in net inflows remains alive, with major wealth platforms now opening access that could unlock trillions in capital. Year-to-date inflows currently stand at $13.8 billion, according to data compiled by The Block. With stablecoin assets jumping 30% to $260 billion and tokenized real-world assets nearly doubling to $25 billion, both are also on track to reach Bitwise's respective $400 billion and $50 billion targets — if momentum holds through year-end, the firm said. On the regulatory front, Bitwise scored prediction wins already after the Department of Labor rescinded its crypto restrictions on 401(k) plans, and Coinbase and Strategy secured spots in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100, respectively, bringing crypto exposure to nearly every passive U.S. investor. Meanwhile, the crypto IPO boom is unfolding even faster than expected, led by Circle, Webull, and eToro, with Bitwise's prediction of at least five crypto unicorns going public in the U.S. this year "almost guaranteed," Hougan and Rasmussen said. However, not all of Bitwise's bets are paying off. The memecoin mania fizzled in Q1, led by the "spectacular blowout" of TRUMP and MELANIA and the "scandalous implosion" of Argentinian President Javier Milei's LIBRA coin, Hougan acknowledged, making its prediction that tokens launched by AI agents will spearhead a memecoin frenzy even bigger than in 2024 highly unlikely. Bitwise's call that Coinbase will surpass Charles Schwab as the most valuable brokerage in the world, and its stock will top $700, also looks like a stretch for 2025. Finally, its prediction that the number of countries holding bitcoin will double from 9 to 18 seems unlikely too, but could be close after the United Arab Emirates revealed a $400 million bitcoin stash in February, and Pakistan announced the creation of a bitcoin reserve in May, Bitwise said. "It should be an exciting H2," Hougan and Rasmussen added.
  • Crypto lending protocol Maple integrates EtherFi’s weETH as collateral Crypto lending protocol Maple has added EtherFi’s weETH as collateral for its onchain credit platform, according to an announcement on Monday. The integration will allow "qualified borrowers to access USDC loans while earning ETHFI incentives," the startup said in a statement. Maple is a decentralized credit protocol that offers under- and over-collateralized loans. The platform, launched on Ethereum in 2021, connects borrowers with lenders through onchain liquidity pools. The platform will incentivize its new weETH pools by offering a limited-time 2% APY rebate in ETHFI for the first $50 million in loans backed by the token. The loans will be overcollateralized, carry a 2-month term, and require a $5 million minimum size, according to the statement. "As staking continues to mature, we’re seeing restaked assets like weETH take on a more central role in how institutional capital allocates onchain," Maple CEO Sid Powell said in a release. "This integration reflects our long-term view that staking is not just a yield source, but a foundation for the next generation of collateral and credit markets." weETH is one of the most widely used assets across DeFi for restaking, the process of using the same asset to secure multiple protocols. The token has a $5.3 billion circulating supply, approximately 75% of which is deployed as collateral in protocols like Aave.
  • Kazakhstan plans national cryptocurrency reserve using seized assets, state-mined coins Kazakhstan will establish a state cryptocurrency reserve under a National Bank affiliate, financing the plan with assets seized in criminal cases and coins mined by state-owned operations, Central Bank Governor Timur Suleimenov said, according to a report by Kazinform. The regulator is drafting rules that follow sovereign-wealth best practices, including a single-manager setup, transparent books, and audited, secure storage. Suleimenov argued that a single custodian shields public assets from market swings and hacks. He expects ministries and law enforcement to hammer out the final framework, but shared no launch date or target size as of the time of writing. The move extends Kazakhstan’s push into regulated digital finance. The country controls about 13% of global Bitcoin hashrate and has imposed licensing rules on miners after officials seized nearly $200 million in illegal rigs following power shortages in 2022. Elsewhere, public treasuries worldwide now eye crypto. The United States weighs a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, while Arizona, Ohio, and Texas have already passed bills to hold BTC. On the non-sovereign isle, companies like Strategy, Metaplanet, and Gamestop, to name a few, have raised capital through equity and debt to stockpile Bitcoin. Additionally, firms such as SharpLink and DeFi Development Corp have employed similar accounting techniques to access funds for corporate treasuries, utilizing assets like Ether and Solana, respectively.
  • Two-thirds of Koreans want to invest more in crypto as won-based stablecoin hype builds: Survey South Korean crypto investors of all ages are planning to increase their crypto holdings as the country's newly elected President promises to foster won-based stablecoin adoption, boosting the country's stock market to become the best-performing in the region. A recent survey of 1,000 South Koreans aged 20-59, conducted by the Hana Financial Research Institute, found that 27% of respondents already own digital assets, yet 70% of respondents (and 86% of current holders) plan to buy more crypto in the next year. Though crypto is typically associated with younger investors, the survey found the largest ownership share among investors in their 40s, at 31% of all current crypto holders. Korean men are about twice as likely as Korean women to hold digital assets today, with the gap persisting across age bands. While younger investors said they were primarily interested in high-risk, high-reward trading, over half of investors in their 50s, on the other hand, said planning for retirement was the primary driver for their crypto adoption. Two-thirds of respondents said their primary concern was market volatility, and although half of respondents admitted to holding funds on exchange hot wallets, only one-third of respondents were concerned with security risks. Stablecoin stocks surge The increasing adoption of digital assets in the country coincides with a surge in retail investor interest in companies that are angling to issue won-based stablecoins, following a pledge to legalize such assets from recently elected President Lee Jae Myung, who took office near the start of June. The initiative "is expected to yield several economic benefits such as reducing trade costs, diversifying foreign exchange risks, and increasing global investment into the local economy," lawmaker Min Byeong-deok, Lee's head of digital assets during the campaign, recently told The Block. A parliamentary bill proposed by the ruling party this month mirrors the GENIUS Act currently making its way through the U.S. government in that it would allow companies to issue their own stablecoins. In Korea, companies with as little as 500 million KRW equity capital (or around $367,000 USD) would be allowed to issue won-based stablecoins. Under the GENIUS Act, no such minimum exists, but issuers with a market cap of over $10 billion would be subject to more stringent regulatory oversight. South Korea's KOSPI Composite stock market index is currently near its four-year high, making South Korea the best-performing market in Asia so far in 2025, partly thanks to a rally around stocks that have been involved with the Bank of Korea's digital assets project, according to a recent FT report. Koreans' interest in stablecoins has also spread beyond its borders; Bloomberg recently reported that following its IPO, Circle has become the top overseas stock for South Korean investors, who have collectively poured $443 million into the USDC stablecoin issuer. The stock of KakaoPay Corp, expected to benefit from friendly crypto regulation in the country, has increased by 134% over the past month, according to Yahoo Finance data.

  • Vitalik Buterin warns Sam Altman's World digital IDs risk killing pseudonymity online Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has some concerns related to digital identity projects like World, which claims to have signed up more than 13 million "unique humans." In a post published Saturday, Buterin chose to specifically discuss the risks and rewards of digital ID projects which utilize zero-knowledge proofs. While the popular thought leader had much to say on the matter, one of his major assertions is that projects like World (formerly Worldcoin), which is famously backed by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, could kill off the pseudonymity that so many internet users enjoy, especially in the crypto space. "Under one-per-person ID, even if ZK-wrapped, we risk coming closer to a world where all of your activity must de-facto be under a single public identity," Buterin wrote in his post. "In a world of growing risk (eg. drones), taking away the option for people to protect themselves through pseudonymity has significant downsides." World is a digital identity project primarily developed and promoted by Tools for Humanity, which was co-founded by Altman and CEO Alex Blania. Users who have their eyeball scanned to prove they are human are given both a World ID and a crypto bonus in the form of WLD tokens. The biometric data collected by World's silvery Orbs to create a digital identity is protected, in part, by using zero-knowledge proofs, a solution also called ZK wrapping, which allows a user to prove something is true (like being a human) without revealing the underlying data (their actual identity). Buterin acknowledges in his post that digital identity initiatives which use zero-knowledge proofs appear to be going mainstream, mentioning not only World, but also both European Union and Taiwanese initiatives. While Buterin sees downsides to any one-ID-for-each-person system, he admitted there are benefits, such as helping to discern from AI-powered agents. One of World's biggest selling points is the notion that it can make the internet a better place by helping users know which other users are human and which are not. "On the surface, widespread adoption of ZK-wrapped digital ID seems like it would be a great victory ... protecting our social media, voting, and all kinds of internet services against manipulation from sybils and bots, all without compromising on privacy," he wrote. But to take advantage of pseudonymity, one needs to be able to do things like possess and manage multiple email and social media accounts. ZK-wrapped, digital identity projects like World, could put pseudonymity in jeopardy if implemented rigidly, argues Buterin. "In this world, social media apps ... will just use one app-specific ID for each user, and because the ID system is one-per-person, each user will only be able to have one account (as opposed to "weak ID" like eg. Google accounts today, where it's reasonably feasible for an average person to get ~5 accounts)," Buterin added. World, which for months after launching triggered criticism among privacy advocates across the globe, has gained momentum lately. The project recently launched in the United States and plans a Visa card. It also has a pilot program lined up with Tinder in Japan that would provide users with greater clarity about the identities of those they are interacting with on the dating app. Instead of a single ZK-wrapped "one-per-person ID" solution, Buterin suggests using a pluralistic model where no one person, institution or platform is in charge of issuing digital identities.
