Odaily Chicago Mercantile Exchange Group has filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and its Chairman Michael Selig in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, concerning the agency's routine approval of cryptocurrency perpetual futures. The lawsuit stems from the CFTC’s May 29 approval of a perpetual futures contract linked to the spot price of Bitcoin by prediction market platform Kalshi, and the issuance of a no-action position for a similar product on the Coinbase exchange. In the filing, CME argues that the CFTC's treatment of "futures" with expiration dates as "swaps" violates directives from the U.S. Congress and the Commodity Exchange Act, and requests the court to invalidate the relevant perpetual futures actions. CME also claims that Selig acted unilaterally without a full panel of five commissioners. A CFTC spokesperson stated that CME is waging a "legal battle" against the agency and the government’s crypto policy, calling the lawsuit "frivolous." Kraken has also announced the launch of perpetual futures trading for U.S. users via the CFTC-regulated platform Bitnomial.

Odaily Odaily News, Strive CEO posted on platform X, stating that Bitcoin is its minimum return rate standard. The view is that, measured by simple total return indicators, investments in Bitcoin-operating companies over the next 10 to 15 years are likely to struggle to outperform Bitcoin itself. However, supporting the Bitcoin network is important, and Bitcoin is its foundational treasury asset. Part of this involves helping Bitcoin-operating companies grow and succeed. As the balance sheet continues to expand, it may be worth considering investing in Bitcoin companies on a smaller scale relative to the balance sheet to help drive native Bitcoin success.
Odaily A new governance proposal called "Root Reborn" for the decentralized AI network Bittensor is drawing attention. Submitted by developer "unconst," the proposal is currently in the code review stage and has not yet been implemented on the mainnet.According to reports, the plan aims to restructure the TAO staking reward distribution mechanism, transforming validators from passive reward distribution nodes into capital allocators similar to "fund managers." Under the current mechanism, the system sells rewards owed to root-level stakers and automatically exchanges subnet tokens for TAO to pay out yields. This process is believed to create continuous selling pressure on various subnet token prices. The "Root Reborn" proposal suggests that validators could autonomously choose which subnets to support and reinvest the rewards that would otherwise be sold into these subnet assets, forming a compoundable asset portfolio. Stakers would still receive rewards and could exit at any time in TAO.The design of the proposal aims to convert persistent selling pressure into structural buying power, while also giving validators a more proactive screening role in capital allocation, thereby strengthening high-quality subnets and weakening low-quality projects.However, the proposal is still in the GitHub review phase. Early automated reviews have identified risks including large-scale data processing bottlenecks and potential impacts on staker settlements when subnets are shut down. The developer has stated that related issues have been fixed and that optimization will continue before mainnet deployment.According to market data, TAO has fallen approximately 28% over the past 12 months, while Bitcoin has dropped about 38% during the same period. The current annualized staking yield is approximately 17%. (CoinDesk)
