Crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett tweeted that Judge Analisa Torres of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York denied its preliminary injunction application in the case involving Kalshi, allowing the case to proceed to the motion to dismiss stage. The court held that New York State gambling law applies to Kalshi's sports event contracts, and such application is not preempted by the Commodity Exchange Act. This ruling means Kalshi has suffered another unfavorable setback in the relevant legal dispute.
According to official sources, BNB Agent Studio now supports AI Agents in accessing CoinMarketCap (CMC) market data with a single click via the B402 merchant pool of Binance Pay, with the Agent's own wallet automatically handling the data call payment.According to reports, building AI Agents that rely on real-time market data previously required configuring API keys, subscription plans, and independent payment processes. Through this integration, developers no longer need to create a CMC account, manage API Keys, or write additional payment code. The Agent can complete the entire process of "requesting data - automatic payment - processing output." Currently, the first batch of 4 types of CMC data interfaces are available, including:DEX Search: Query tokens and trading pairs on decentralized exchanges;Quotes Latest: Obtain real-time prices and market data for specified tokens;Listings Latest: Obtain market-wide token ranking data;DEX Pairs Quotes: Obtain real-time quotes for specified DEX trading pairs.BNB Chain stated that all data requests are paid through B402 based on the x402 protocol and are settled instantly on BNB Smart Chain (BSC). This feature will help developers quickly build AI Agents with market awareness, such as daily market analysis Agents, token ranking change reminder Agents, investment watchlist Agents, and narrative analysis Agents that combine large language models for market interpretation.
The latest report released by Wintermute shows that cooling AI trading has triggered market sector rotation, with the Nasdaq Index falling for the fifth consecutive trading day, down 4.5% in a single day, and the semiconductor sector under significant pressure; Bitcoin fell 5.9%, dropping below $60,000 to around $59,300, while Ethereum fell 7.9%.

the core US crypto regulatory bill, the "Digital Asset Market Clarity Act" (Clarity Act), has entered a critical two-week negotiation cycle for legislation. The Senate will be in recess until July 13. During the recess, bipartisan staff, the White House, and representatives from the crypto industry will continue to negotiate outstanding differences in the bill, focusing on resolving disputes over topics such as the integration of the two bill versions from the Senate Banking Committee and the Agriculture Committee, ethics clauses, and anti-money laundering rules.If all parties successfully reach a unified compromise version, the bill could be submitted for a full Senate vote as early as late July to early August. The market generally believes that the period before the August congressional recess is the only window for the bill to be passed this year. If the vote is not completed during this phase, the probability of the bill being enacted into law within 2026 will significantly decrease. (Crypto in America)

According to CoinDesk, STRC—Strategy’s dividend-paying preferred stock—recently fell below its $100 par value, sparking market discussion about the company’s capital structure and solvency. Key timeline events are reviewed below: May 14: STRC closed at $100 on the ex-dividend date; Bitcoin’s price remained above $80,000, yet market stress was already evident. Concurrently, Strive Asset Management announced its competing product, SATA, would adopt a daily dividend mechanism, raising its yield to 13%, further intensifying competitive pressure on STRC. May 15: Strategy announced it would repurchase $1.5 billion of its 2029 convertible bonds at an ~8% discount. The market subsequently noted that the company used its U.S. dollar cash reserves—previously earmarked for dividend and debt servicing—to execute this transaction. May 26: Strategy confirmed its cash reserves were deployed in the bond repurchase, reducing its cash balance to approximately $871 million—enough to cover only about six months of STRC dividend payments, down from its prior target of maintaining roughly 24 months of coverage. June 1: Strategy sold 32 BTC—the first Bitcoin sale since 2022—to demonstrate its ability to support dividend payments via asset sales. Following the announcement, MSTR’s stock price dropped 5.9%.

"Fed Whisperer" Nick Timiraos stated that there are three key points to watch in Warsh's first Fed meeting as chair:1. Will the "easing bias" language be removed? And if so, what will replace it? Since 2024, a sentence in the policy statement regarding "additional adjustments" has been signaling to the outside world that the next move in interest rates is more likely to be a cut than a hike. This language sparked dissent at the last Fed meeting and now appears increasingly untenable. Removing it could satisfy everyone: hawks want it gone, and Warsh can tout the move as a reform rather than a signal of a hawkish turn. Even Trump previewed this move during Warsh's swearing-in ceremony.2. Will the "dot plot" take over as a guidance tool? Who will predict a rate hike? The Fed will release its first interest rate projections since March; at that time, 12 of the 19 officials expected at least one rate cut in 2026. Now, most expect no cuts. I'm watching how many predict a hike—and whether Warsh, long skeptical of the dot plot, will submit his own projection or downplay its significance by not voting on it.3. How will Warsh communicate during the press conference? The Fed Chair's words can move markets only if people believe he commands a majority—that his words represent the committee's direction, not just his own views. Warsh leads a divided group that he may not fully control. If he faithfully conveys his colleagues' views, he can begin building the authority to speak for them; if not, colleagues will express themselves elsewhere (e.g., through dissenting votes). Under a chair inclined to reduce signaling, those "dissents" themselves may become the tools for sending signals. (Jinshi)

According to CoinDesk, Ethereum core developers have entered the final development phase of the Glamsterdam upgrade and are currently running development networks (devnets) that incorporate all planned Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs); once complete, the upgrade will advance to public testnets. Parithosh Jayanthi, a core developer at the Ethereum Foundation, stated that Glamsterdam “could be the largest fork upgrade since the Merge,” fundamentally altering many foundational assumptions of Ethereum and laying the groundwork for large-scale future scaling. It is expected to go live in the second half of 2026, though the exact date remains undetermined. Key components of this upgrade include: First, embedded Proposer-Builder Separation (ePBS, EIP-7732), which moves off-chain block building and proposing processes on-chain to reduce MEV-related manipulation risks and centralization concerns; Second, block-level access lists (EIP-7928), enabling blocks to pre-declare accounts and smart contract data they need to access, thereby improving block execution efficiency and predictability; Third, broad gas fee repricing—costs for high-compute operations will decrease while state storage costs will increase—to more accurately reflect resource consumption and ensure compatibility with zero-knowledge proof-based scaling solutions. Currently, the development team is focused on testing, finalizing specifications, and community communication.
