DeFi 研究员 Ignas 发文表示，自己原本担心代币经济学创新已经停滞，但事实并非如此。在经历一个周期的低流通量、高 FDV 代币发行后，加密行业正重新尝试新的代币机制，例如： 1、ZCAT 通过 3%转账税为持有者提供 ZEC 奖励； 2、BUN/Mosh 通过“Bundle Launch”让资金支持者分享交易手续费但无法提取 LP； 3、STONK 将手续费收入用于按市值加权回购并销毁排名前 15 的合规代币； 4、VVV/DIEM 允许质押 VVV 铸造 DIEM，再通过质押 DIEM 获得每日 AI 额度；5、ORBIO 则将交易手续费转化为质押者的 AI 额度； 6、BP 则要求质押至少 1 年以获得未来 IPO 股权转换资格，并根据项目增长里程碑决定代币供应解锁。 Ignas 认为，这些项目的共同点是尝试让代币不再只是融资工具，而是具备实际价值，不过也提醒社区许多机制仍依赖投机者持续交易，“投机”依然主导着加密市场。

According to CoinPost, Japan’s National Tax Agency officially launched the next-generation core system “KSK2” on September 24, marking the first major upgrade in approximately 25 years. Centered on the My Number system for individuals and corporate identification numbers for entities, the new system enables unified management of personal and corporate data while deploying AI technology to strengthen the detection of fraudulent declarations. Cryptocurrency traders and investors are particularly affected, as annual transaction reports filed by exchanges, bank account deposit and withdrawal records, and Common Reporting Standard (CRS) data shared with overseas tax authorities have all been integrated into the AI’s primary analysis framework. Additionally, social media posts referencing topics such as “cryptocurrency profits” will be cross-referenced with declared data, markedly raising the risk of tax investigations. The agency has simultaneously consolidated cross-sector data linking corporations and individuals, making it easier to identify discrepancies between assets and income for investors purchasing cryptocurrencies through private companies or using gifted and inherited funds. Industry insiders warn that properly safeguarding annual transaction reports and submitting accurate, complete declarations has become an immediate priority.

Odaily News: The Jamaican House of Representatives began reviewing the Virtual Assets Service Providers Act on September 22, aiming to establish a licensing and regulatory framework for cryptocurrency exchanges and other virtual asset service providers, and to bring them in line with international standards such as anti-money laundering requirements.The bill stipulates that entities providing virtual asset services to Jamaican consumers, regardless of where they are headquartered, must obtain a license from the Financial Services Commission (FSC); operating without a license will constitute a criminal offense. Licensed institutions must also fulfill obligations including customer identity verification, transaction monitoring, and suspicious activity reporting.Jamaican Finance Minister Fayval Williams stated that an FSC license only regulates the operations of enterprises and does not constitute official recognition or endorsement of the digital assets being traded. The Jamaican dollar remains the country's sole legal tender, and the FSC will be authorized to license, supervise, and shut down non-compliant virtual asset businesses. (Bitcoin.com News)

According to Crypto in America, former CFTC Chair Russ Behnam stated at the Georgetown University conference on financial market quality that as prediction markets experience explosive growth, Congress urgently needs to clarify the boundary between risk management and gambling, with related litigation potentially ultimately reaching the U.S. Supreme Court. Behnam also noted that after the Clarity Act failed to advance in the Senate, relying on existing authority to regulate the spot market leaves the CFTC effectively “patching things together with tape and paperclips,” and regulators urgently need to establish more durable rules.
Odaily News: Some analysts expect that the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield could rise to 6%, driven by concerns over the federal fiscal deficit, debt growth, and capital competition. Since the end of 2023, the yield has risen to 5.23%, while Bitcoin's price has roughly doubled to $86,000.If yields rise due to fiscal concerns, investors may seek alternatives to government debt, and Bitcoin could benefit; if the rise in yields is driven by the Federal Reserve tightening monetary policy again, Bitcoin could come under pressure.

Min Byung-deok, a senior member of the policy committee of South Korea's ruling Democratic Party, said that crypto taxation should only be introduced after the Framework Act on Digital Assets is passed, and that it is not appropriate to start levying taxes before the underlying law is in place. He pointed out that difficulties in tracking income from overseas trading platforms and the inability to carry over investment losses reflect that the conditions for tax administration are not yet mature.The South Korean government still insists on implementing the virtual asset income tax as scheduled. Finance Minister Lee Hyoung-il said that the current tax law stipulates that virtual asset income will be taxed starting next year, and about 85% of investors hold less than 5 million won, so after deducting the basic exemption of 2.5 million won, most investors will not need to pay taxes or will face a relatively low tax burden. Under the current rules, income from the transfer or lending of virtual assets is subject to a 20% tax rate on annual net gains, losses may not be carried forward, and the actual filing and payment window is expected to open in May 2028.
