US SEC announces the agenda of the crypto trading roundtable on April 11
According to the SEC official website, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Crypto Task Force will hold an open roundtable meeting titled "Blocks and Dilemmas: Tailor-to-Taiwan" at its headquarters in Washington from 13:00 to 17:00 ET on April 11 (1:00 to 5:00 ET on April 12) and broadcast it online. The meeting will be hosted by Nicholas Losurdo, partner of Goodwin Procter, and the participants include executives and experts from Uniswap Labs, Coinbase, NYSE and other organizations. SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce said the series is designed to promote the clarification of crypto-regulation.
World Liberty Financial, the Trump family crypto project, released a governance proposal, planning to airdrop a small amount of stablecoin USD1 to all $WLFI holders through an on-chain system to test its airdrop capabilities and thank early supporters.
Airdrops will be conducted on the Ethereum main network, and the specific amount of distribution will be determined based on the number of eligible wallets and budget. The Company reserves the right to adjust or terminate airdrops at any time.
Nigerian court extends Binance tax evasion case to April 30
The Nigerian court extended the trial of the tax evasion case against Binance until April 30 so that the tax authorities can respond to Binance's legal motion. The Nigerian Federal Taxation Bureau accused Binance of owing corporate income taxes and fines for 2022 and 2023, with a total claim of more than US$79 billion. Binance questioned the legality of the court's email delivery of legal documents, saying it is headquartered in the Cayman Islands and has no entity in Nigeria.
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin said at the Hong Kong "Web3 Scholars Summit 2025" that Ethereum's long-term goal is to achieve 12-second native asynchronous communication between L1 and L2, reducing bridging latency and cost.
To this end, he proposed a "four-step" solution: including "ZK+TEE+OP three-choice two" design, asynchronous reading of L1 through L1SLOAD, unified proof integration mechanism, and deployment of low-latency validators. He stressed that in the future, users can still use the intent mode to obtain faster or better cost experiences, but the basic communication system will tend to be low-cost and high-coupling.
Binance will launch KernelDAO (KERNEL) Megadrop on April 9
Binance launches the 4th issue of Megadrop project KernelDAO (KERNEL), a re-staking agreement that supports Kernel, Kelp, Gain and other products. Users can participate in KERNEL Megadrop from 08:00:00 on April 9, 2025 (East Eighth District Time). The KernelDAO (KERNEL) Megadrop App page is expected to be online within about twelve hours after this announcement.
Binance will list KernelDAO (KERNEL) at 20:00 on April 14, 2025 (East Eighth District Time), and open the KERNEL/USDT, KERNEL/BNB, KERNEL/USDC, KERNEL/FDUSD and KERNEL/TRY trading markets, with seed label trading rules applicable.
Former Binance CEO Zhao Changpeng posted a message saying that Pakistan is the fifth largest country in the world with an average age of 24 years old and an Internet coverage rate of 100%, making it an active crypto market.
He noted that about 20 million children in the country were out of school and said the Giggle Academy program could help them access education and employment opportunities.
Binance will remove the first 14 tokens from the vote on April 16
According to Binance announcement, the platform will remove 14 tokens including BADGER, BAL, BETA, CREAM, CTXC, ELF, FIRO, HARD, NULS, PROS, SNT, TROY, UFT, and VIDT on April 16, 2025.
The removal of this time is based on the results of "voting removal" and the evaluation of multiple standards such as project team activity, liquidity, and transparency. Binance reminds that other tokens that have not been selected by the first batch may still be removed in the future due to failure to meet the standards.
Justin Sun posted the "seven deadly crimes" of First Digital Trust (FDT) on social platforms, including: breach of fiduciary liability, abuse of customer funds, unlicensed investment activities, fraud or theft, false reports or information concealment, violation of anti-money laundering (AML) regulations, and violation of Hong Kong POBO regulations. The specific content is as follows:
Crime 1: Breach of Trust Liability
Under the Hong Kong Trust Ordinance (Chapter 29), the trustee must act with caution, diligence and loyalty. Misappropriation of client funds violates Article 4 (Obligation of Reasonable Caution) and the principle of trust. Obviously, FDT will bear liability for damages and damages in civil litigation.
Crime 2: Abuse of Customer Funds
The Securities and Futures (Customer Payments) Rules (Chapter 571) stipulate that custodial funds shall not be used for the purpose of the custodian himself. Customer assets must be stored in quarantine accounts, and unauthorized withdrawals are strictly prohibited. By transferring TUSD funds to ARIA DMCC without proper authorization, FDT will face enforcement actions, including fines, licence revocation or criminal prosecution.
Crime 3: Unlicensed Investing Activities
Although FDT is registered as a trust or corporate service provider (TCSP), it does not have any SFC license to conduct regulated activities on behalf of its clients. Its so-called investment activities involving TUSD assets in ARIA directly violate the provisions of the Securities and Futures Ordinance, that is, it engages in regulated activities without permission.
Crime 4: Fraud or theft
Misappropriation of funds for the purpose of deceiving customers constitutes fraud or theft. FDT conspired with accomplices (such as Aria CFF, Truecoin (Alex De Lorraine), Crossbridge/Finaport (Yai Sukonthabhund)) to cover up misappropriation by forging records and claiming to have made false investments.
Crime 5: False reports or concealment of information
To cover up misappropriated or unauthorized transactions, FDT provided false statements and fraudulent documents claiming that TUSD funds were intact and invested as directed. This violates Section 300 of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (using fraud or deceptive means in securities trading).
Crime 6: Violation of Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Regulations
FDT facilitates and/or constitutes a violation of anti-money laundering regulations through complex transactions or offshore accounts to disperse misappropriation of its source.
Crime 7: The Prevention of Bribery Ordinance (POBO)
The Prevention of Bribery Ordinance is the main regulation for the management of secret commissions in Hong Kong. It criminalizes corrupt transactions, including agents collecting undisclosed benefits or commissions without the consent of the principal. FDT/Legacy, under the direction of Vincent Chok, received secret kickbacks from the DMCC in exchange for illegal transfer of TUSD custodial funds.
