SEC Plans to Launch Tokenized Stock "Innovation Exemption," Allowing 24/7 On-Chain Trading of Stocks Like Apple
Odaily News: The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) plans to unveil two crypto-related initiatives in the coming days, while Congress's CLARITY Act remains stalled at least until September. The SEC is expected to propose "Regulation Crypto" at a public meeting on Friday, allowing projects to raise funds through token sales without completing full securities registration. The SEC also plans to introduce an "innovation exemption" for tokenized stocks, with details potentially released on Friday. The exemption would allow tokenized versions of stocks such as Apple, Tesla, and Nvidia to trade on the blockchain 24/7, with support for fractional trading and near-instant settlement. Such tokens typically track the economic exposure of the underlying stock but do not carry voting rights or dividend entitlements. The initiative falls under SEC Chairman Paul Atkins's "Project Crypto" agenda, with Robinhood Chain, Solana, and Base all having advanced related on-chain markets. (Decrypt)

Wintermute: RWA Could Become a New Liquidity Channel for the Next Crypto Bull Run
Odaily News: Wintermute posted on X that the crypto market has rebounded over the past two weeks, with ETF inflows turning positive and stablecoin issuance stabilizing. However, to usher in a full new cycle, the market still needs new sources of capital. Historically, VC and ICO funding in 2017-2018, stablecoins in 2020-2021, and ETFs and digital asset treasury companies in 2024-2025 have all accelerated bull market cycles. RWA could become the next major liquidity channel. Data shows that stablecoin supply grew by over $120 billion within a single year; ETFs recorded cumulative net inflows of $63 billion, while digital asset treasury companies accumulated over $115 billion in holdings.In comparison, RWA attracted approximately $16 billion in capital over the past 12 months—only about one-tenth of the peak scale seen from ETFs and treasury companies in the previous cycle. However, the value of on-chain tokenized assets has roughly doubled within a year to over $30 billion, and this growth continued even during periods of stablecoin supply contraction.Wintermute believes that RWA capital initially flows into traditional assets such as Apple stock and U.S. Treasury funds, rather than directly into crypto assets. But once these funds enter the blockchain, the friction involved in rotating toward Bitcoin, altcoins, and DeFi is expected to decrease significantly. As the regulatory framework gradually becomes clearer and tokenized Treasuries and funds begin gaining acceptance as collateral on trading platforms and within DeFi, RWA could drive a market cycle that unfolds at a more moderate pace and lasts longer.

Stock offering size expanded to $20 billion, with Intel institutional demand reportedly exceeding $100 billion
Odaily News: Citrini analyst jukan posted on X platform, stating that GF Securities Overseas Electronics Newsletter reiterated its Buy rating on Intel with a $136 price target, and believes this stock offering sends a positive signal. The report expects Intel's foundry business to break even in Q4 2027, with margin leverage effects fully reflected by 2028. Yield rates and external customer expansion—especially progress with Apple—are advancing steadily, and the EMIB customer base is also expanding, with customers including Google and AWS. Intel has secured support from substrate supplier Unimicron and will produce silicon capacitors internally. The report raised Intel's expected EPS for 2026 and 2027 by 3% and 1% respectively, maintaining the $136 price target after accounting for dilution effects. Intel expanded its stock offering from the initially planned $15 billion to $20 billion, with institutional demand reportedly exceeding $100 billion. The offering price was $95, and the overallotment option has been fully exercised. CEO Lip-Bu Tan and his family subscribed approximately $12 million at the offering price, which the report believes reflects management's confidence in the company and may support capital expenditure for fiscal year 2027. The report states that Intel reiterated its foundry business will achieve breakeven by the end of 2027; if delayed to 2028, the primary reason would be increased demand for additional investment. The report maintains its previous assessment, expecting 18A yield of approximately 80% in Q2 2026, with CWF already entering the capacity ramp-up phase. External customer collaboration continues to advance, with Apple's 14A high-volume manufacturing being particularly notable. The report raised Intel's back-end business revenue expectations for fiscal years 2027 and 2028 to $1.1 billion and $7 billion respectively, citing improved visibility into AWS Trainium3 adopting EMIB-T in 2027, as well as Google's Humufish and Triggerfish entering production expansion phases from H2 2027 to 2028. The report also expects that AWS and Microsoft ASIC products may adopt EMIB in 2028.

SlowMist: It has not yet been confirmed that the iPhone Safari attack led to stolen crypto assets, and whether iOS 26.5 is affected remains to be verified.
According to Cointelegraph, SlowMist stated that it has not yet independently confirmed that the analyzed Safari attack sample has led to actual crypto asset theft. Existing technical evidence primarily covers iOS 18.4 through 18.6.2, while the previously circulated claim that "iOS 13 through iOS 26.5 are all affected" remains preliminary. Analysis by SlowMist reveals that the malicious Safari page exploits a chain of vulnerabilities previously patched by Apple to attempt access to the Apple Keychain, app files, and shared data, which may involve information stored in crypto wallets. However, the presence of exfiltration-capable code does not mean data has been successfully extracted from all targeted wallets. SlowMist continues to recommend that iPhone users promptly install the latest iOS security updates and avoid opening suspicious links.
SlowMist: No Confirmed Link Yet Between iPhone Safari Attack and Crypto Asset Theft
Odaily reports: Blockchain security firm SlowMist has stated that the attack samples it analyzed targeting iPhone Safari have not been linked to any confirmed incidents of crypto asset theft. The available technical evidence primarily covers iOS 18.4 through 18.6.2, and whether iOS 26.5 is affected still lacks reproducible technical evidence.The attack reuses the previously disclosed DarkSword attack chain technique, loading code through malicious web pages disguised as free virtual private server services. The samples contain components that access Apple Keychain, extract and decrypt stored information, and can also access application files and shared data.SlowMist recommends that iPhone users install the latest iOS security updates available for their devices and avoid clicking suspicious links. Users who suspect their wallet private keys or seed phrases have been compromised should generate a new wallet on a clean device and transfer their assets. (Cointelegraph)
SlowMist Warns Darksword Exploit Reportedly Now Capable of Attacking iOS 26.5 and Stealing Wallet Private Keys
Odaily reports: SlowMist Chief Information Security Officer 23pds has stated that attackers are exploiting the Darksword vulnerability to bypass iOS security mechanisms through Safari, take control of devices, and extract private keys and other data from self-custodial crypto wallets. The vulnerability was previously used in attacks targeting users in Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Malaysia, and Ukraine.Google Threat Intelligence Group previously disclosed that Darksword initially only affected iOS versions 18.4 through 18.7. According to 23pds, attackers have now adapted it to iOS 26.5, though this assessment has not yet been officially verified.Attacks typically begin with social engineering. After users click on malicious links sent via social media or messaging apps, their devices may be rooted and wallet data extracted. Users should promptly update their phone's operating system and avoid visiting website links sent by strangers. Separately, three investors who lost nearly $1.8 million in Bitcoin after downloading fake wallet apps from Apple's official App Store have filed a lawsuit against Apple. (Bitcoin.com News)

SlowMist: iOS Safari DarkSword Attack Can Steal Wallet Inputs, Zero-Click Trigger with Six-Vulnerability Chain
Odaily News, According to a disclosure by the SlowMist security team, they have detected an attack campaign disguised as a free VPS service, specifically targeting iPhone Safari browsers running iOS versions 18.4 to 18.6.2. The attackers exploited a chain of six vulnerabilities codenamed DarkSword to form a complete attack sequence, covering WebKit remote code execution, sandbox escape, and kernel read/write operations. This allows them to access app container files and keychain data without user awareness, and record keyboard inputs while wallets such as imToken, TokenPocket, or TronLink are in the foreground.The SlowMist team stated that all six aforementioned vulnerabilities have been patched by Apple, and the current attack constitutes reuse of an n-day vulnerability chain. Merely visiting a malicious page does not directly prove that mnemonic phrases or private keys have been stolen, and device forensics is still required for confirmation. iOS/iPadOS users are advised to upgrade their systems to version 18.7.3 or 26.3 and above as soon as possible.
