Ant Digital Technology initiates application for Hong Kong stablecoin license
Bian Zhuoqun, vice president of Ant Group and president of Ant Digital Technology’s blockchain business, revealed in an interview with reporters today that Ant Digital Technology has started applying for a Hong Kong stablecoin license and has conducted too many rounds of communication with regulators. It is reported that Ant Digital has listed Hong Kong as its global headquarters this year and has completed the first trial of the regulatory sandbox in Hong Kong.
Bian Zhuoqun made the above statement at the SNEC Shanghai Photovoltaic Exhibition on June 12. On the same day, Ant Digital Technology and GCL Energy jointly announced the establishment of a new company "Ant Xinneng".
Bian Zhuoqun said that stablecoins, as a bridge connecting traditional finance and tokenized assets, have broad market potential. Its core value lies in the expansion of usage scenarios and the construction of compliance. Starting from industry and technology, Ant Digital Technology is committed to building a digital trading scenario based on stablecoins and promoting the development of new asset classes with technology as the core in the industry. At the same time, Ant Digital provides a new incremental market for stablecoin transactions by providing a safe, reliable and compliant infrastructure, and improves trading efficiency and liquidity.
According to Bloomberg, citing people familiar with the matter, Tencent Holdings Co., Ltd. is studying a potential deal to acquire South Korean gaming company Nexon and has contacted the family of Nexon's late founder Kim Jong-joo to discuss the possibility of the acquisition. It is reported that the Kim family is discussing and evaluating various options with consultants.
People familiar with the matter said that it is not clear at present how willing NXC is to sell Nexon equity, nor can it guarantee that Tencent's negotiations will lead to the transaction, and the specific transaction structure has not been finalized. Representatives of Tencent did not respond to a request for comment, and both Nexon and NXC declined to comment.
It is reported that Nexon, famous for role-playing games such as "Story of Adventure", was founded in 1994 and completed its largest technology IPO at that time in Japan in 2011. Its Tokyo-listed stocks have risen by more than 10% this year, with a market value of about US$15 billion. Tencent tried to acquire Nexon in 2019 but failed. The two jointly developed Tencent’s important revenue-generating game "Dungeon and the Warriors".

Christine Kim, former vice president of research at Galaxy Digital, posted on the X platform that the new Ethereum Foundation organizational structure is confusing. She mentioned that Tim Beiko, Barnabé Monnot and Alex Stokes have multiple roles, leading all R&D teams of the Foundation, managing their own teams, and being responsible for the expansion of L1 and L2 capacity and improving user experience (UX) in the next 12 months.
In addition, Christine has doubts about the details of the architecture, including whether the bold name is the team leader, some of the purpose of highlighting, and whether Tim is responsible for coordinating and overseeing multiple projects.
At the same time, she expressed her confusion about the color grouping logic, such as why the consensus mechanism and account abstract are divided into groups, but the stateless consensus is not included; why Testing and pandaops are divided into groups, but Security is not grouped.
Trump 's "gold card" for immigration is now open for registration, priced at $5 million

Trump said, "This plan, known as the "gold card", does not require Congressional approval and will be priced at about $5 million, and it will give you green card privileges."

“What are some great articles worth reading in the past 24 hours”
The US stablecoin legislative game, is it welcoming the innovative revolution or sounding the alarm?
The United States and Hong Kong, China, have made key progress in stablecoin legislation recently, triggering a new round of pursuit of cryptocurrencies in global financial markets. The U.S. Senate passed the GENIUS Act, which aims to regulate stablecoin issuers at the federal level, and Hong Kong also enacted the Stablecoin Ordinance. Supporters believe this will promote cryptocurrencies to integrate into the mainstream financial system and enhance the dominance of the dollar; but doubters point out that there are conflicts of interest, money laundering risks and transparency issues. Although the legislative process has slowed down due to the bipartisan game, the size of the cryptocurrency market has expanded rapidly, with the total market value of stablecoins reaching nearly US$250 billion. The industry is facing the challenges of how to balance innovation and compliance, while also dealing with the difficulties of fraud and regulation. The Trump family's involvement in the stablecoin market has also caused controversy, and the legislative process may affect the US election.
US SEC article: What kind of POS and pledge behaviors do not belong to securities?
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Department of Corporate Finance issued a statement clarifying that pledge activities in the Proof of Stake (PoS) network do not belong to securities issuance and do not require registration according to the Securities Law. The statement distinguishes three forms of pledge: self-pled, self-custodial pledge and custodial pledge, and believes that these activities are essentially administrative or transactional operations rather than investment contracts that rely on other people's management efforts. The SEC emphasized that pledge rewards are the network's consideration compensation for verification services, not securities returns. In addition, affiliated services such as reducing penalties and compensation, early unbundling, etc. do not constitute securities activities. This move provides regulatory certainty for crypto assets pledge.
