According to the UK House of Lords’ Financial Services Regulation Committee’s report, “Stablecoins: Waiting for Regulation,” the global stablecoin market capitalization has exceeded $310 billion. However, the British pound (GBP) stablecoin market remains in its infancy, and the UK’s regulatory framework lags significantly behind those of the United States (the GENIUS Act) and the European Union (MiCA). The report levels several criticisms against the current regulatory proposals put forward by the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the Bank of England, with key concerns including: • The Bank of England’s requirement that systemic stablecoin issuers hold at least 40% of their reserve assets in non-interest-bearing central bank deposits is viewed by industry participants as severely undermining issuers’ profitability and the UK’s international competitiveness in this market; • The proposed holding limits—£20,000 per individual and £10 million per corporate entity—are considered operationally unworkable and potentially stifling to the development of the GBP stablecoin market; • The T+1 redemption requirement would impose substantial operational burdens on issuers; • The Prudential Regulation Authority’s (PRA) restriction prohibiting deposit-taking institutions from issuing stablecoins under independent brands is deemed overly stringent. The report does commend the Bank of England’s proposed liquidity-support lending facility, recognizing it as an innovative regulatory measure surpassing those adopted by other major jurisdictions. The Committee urges regulators to strictly adhere to the established timeline, ensuring the full regulatory framework enters into force on 25 October 2027. It further recommends adopting a principles-based, technology-neutral regulatory approach to strike an appropriate balance between financial stability and market innovation.
: According to an official announcement, on June 3, Trust Wallet announced a partnership with BNB Chain and CoinMarketCap to officially launch the "BNB Hack: AI Trading Agents" hackathon, featuring a total prize pool of $36,000. The Trust Wallet Agent Kit serves as the core on-chain execution technology stack for this event.

The "Strategy Skills" track does not require an execution layer; participants build backtestable strategy proposals based on 12 categories of data tools from CoinMarketCap MCP, including market data, technical indicators, on-chain data, sentiment, and news.Track one uses real PnL as the core evaluation criterion, setting a maximum drawdown limit as the risk control threshold. Track two is comprehensively scored by a judging panel across four dimensions: technical execution, originality, real-world value, and presentation. The build window runs from June 3 to June 21, the trading window from June 22 to June 28, and winners will be announced during the week of July 6. In addition to cash prizes, winning teams will receive CoinMarketCap Pro API subscription credits, mentorship from CMC Labs, and the BNB Chain Kickstart ecosystem support package.
It is reported that Bybit recently launched Percentage-of-Volume (POV) orders on its derivatives platform. POV orders dynamically split large orders into smaller child orders and adjust execution timing based on real-time market trades and liquidity, helping reduce slippage and market impact while improving execution stability during volatile market conditions. Unlike traditional execution methods that rely solely on trading volume, Bybit’s POV execution model is based on order book depth and offers three modes—volume-based, counterparty liquidity-based, and same-side liquidity-based—enabling traders to optimize execution according to their specific strategies. This feature is now available to eligible derivatives users.

Odaily News, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Market Participants Division today issued an interpretive opinion and a "No-Action Letter" in response to an application from Coinbase Financial Markets, allowing it to offer trading services for certain digital commodity derivatives through its affiliated offshore trading platform, Deribit. CFTC staff confirmed that, based on the framework approved for Kalshi's BTCPERP contract on May 29, 2026, relevant crypto perpetual contracts can be classified as "foreign futures" as defined under Regulation 30.1.Simultaneously, under the fulfillment of specific conditions, the CFTC's Market Participants Division stated it does not recommend enforcement action against Coinbase Financial Markets. This allows Coinbase to transfer customer-held digital commodities and stablecoins, used as margin, to its affiliated offshore broker-dealer to support trading positions in foreign futures and options, even if the relevant offshore broker-dealer has the right to rehypothecate these assets.Analysts believe this statement further clarifies the classification path for crypto perpetual contracts within the U.S. regulatory framework and provides institutional space for compliant entities to access derivatives trading through offshore liquidity markets.
