According to CoinDesk, Figure Technology Solutions CEO Mike Cagney stated that the company is trying to leverage blockchain to reconstruct the traditional credit market infrastructure and deeply integrate real-world assets (RWA), securitization, and DeFi.Data shows that Figure's loan issuance in March this year exceeded $1 billion for the first time in a single month, with a total lending volume of $2.9 billion in the first quarter, which annualizes to about $12 billion. Cagney stated that the company's goal is to reduce intermediaries in the securitization, lending, and stock lending markets through on-chain processes, lowering costs and enhancing liquidity.Currently, Figure has launched the yield-bearing stablecoin YLDS and has launched on-chain credit vault products on networks like Solana, allowing users to invest in tokenized credit assets or use them as collateral for borrowing. The company also plans to expand into the Ethereum ecosystem and explore stock tokenization and on-chain securities lending.Cagney believes that the true value of blockchain lies not in "putting everything on-chain," but in reconstructing the financial abstraction layer. "Financial assets such as loans, securities, and equity are naturally suited for on-chain processes, and the entire financial infrastructure may be rewritten as a result."

Sky proposes a comprehensive reform of the treasury revenue distribution mechanism. Founder Rune Christensen stated that with Genesis Capital's transition to Grove, Sky has officially ended the genesis capitalization phase, and the previous irregular capital deployment determined by governance has come to an end.The proposal simplifies the treasury management function (TMF) from a five-step conditional waterfall structure to a four-step fixed allocation framework, covering security and maintenance, overall backup capital, smart burn engine, and USDS staking rewards, while eliminating multiple legacy mechanisms. This move comes as Sky is rapidly expanding, with the supply of USDS rising to approximately $11.6 billion, making it the third-largest stablecoin. Previously, the Sky community authorized the deployment of up to $2.5 billion through the stablecoin incubator Obex, and launched the native USDS on Avalanche in April.

ChainCatcher live report, HashKey RWA CEO Anna Liu delivered a keynote speech at the 2026 Hong Kong Web3 Carnival. She introduced that Hashkey Chain has deployed 11 tokenized products, with the total value of on-chain RWA assets reaching 2 billion Hong Kong dollars. The exchange has launched seven tokenized products, including Hong Kong's first tokenized gold ETF.She addressed the four major challenges of RWA: first, the authenticity of underlying assets; blockchain cannot guarantee the authenticity of data before it is on-chain, and the oracle problem is a core issue; second, the lack of a commercial closed loop; many projects go on-chain just for the sake of going on-chain, and new value must be created that traditional methods cannot achieve; third, the liquidity dilemma; even compliant STO exchanges in the U.S. often have daily trading volumes of only a few tens of thousands of dollars, requiring high-quality assets, licensed distribution channels, and secondary market infrastructure to be in place simultaneously; fourth, the complexity of cross-border compliance, suggesting that resource planning should be included from day one.She proposed that asset tokenization should first ask three questions: Can it be done? Is it suitable? Why tokenize? She cited data indicating that in the first quarter of this year, the global tokenized RWA market size has approached 30 billion dollars, growing over 260% in the past year, with the IMF characterizing it this month as "a fundamental restructuring of the financial architecture."

During a media group interview at the Rosewood Hotel in Hong Kong, Gate's founder and CEO Dr. Han stated that AI is gradually evolving from an efficiency tool to a core capability within trading systems. It not only enhances information processing and execution efficiency but also begins to enter key areas such as trading decision-making, risk control, and asset allocation. As AI technology continues to deepen, users will no longer rely solely on experience and emotional judgment but will complete the decision-making process with the assistance or even agency of AI.He pointed out that this change is reshaping the relationship between users and trading systems, moving from "human-led tools" to "collaboration between humans and intelligent systems." In this trend, Web3 is transitioning from a function-oriented "tool-driven phase" to a "decision-driven phase" centered on intelligence.Gate is building a systematic capability framework around AI, accelerating the construction of an AI product matrix centered on Gate for AI, GateClaw, GateAI, and GateRouter, and promoting the deep integration of AI technology into the trading ecosystem to continuously advance the intelligent upgrade of the industry.

Solana co-founder toly commented on the controversy surrounding Circle's USDC freezing mechanism, stating that we need a base layer stablecoin that can only be frozen under a court order. If there are other factors that can freeze it besides authorization from a judge approved by the U.S. Senate, then it is not a true dollar stablecoin.toly suggested that various protocols (such as Drift and Kamino) should issue wrapped stablecoins with their own freezing and unfreezing strategies on top of the base layer stablecoin, equipped with a security team truly responsible for handling hacking incidents, while having independent freezing and unfreezing strategies.It is reported that after the recent hacking of the Drift protocol, Circle did not promptly freeze the stolen USDC. Circle CEO Jeremy Allaire's remarks about the "moral dilemma" and freezing policy have sparked widespread discussion in the community regarding the freezing mechanisms of centralized stablecoins.

Bittensor co-founder Const (@const_reborn) responded on Twitter to recent allegations regarding Covenant AI. Const stated that he has no authority to pause emissions, and that the previous sale of a portion of alpha positions in three subnetworks was because these subnetworks were not operational and were in a high ratio of code destruction state. The impact of this transaction on emissions is consistent with the buying and selling behavior of ordinary TAO holders, and he does not enjoy any special privileges.Regarding management authority, Const clarified that it was Samuel himself who abandoned his Discord channel, and he did not remove his administrator role; he only temporarily restricted his ability to delete posts that honestly criticize and then restored it. Additionally, he emphasized that the scale of the token sell-off was less than 1% of his total investment in the team, and stated that exercising the rights to buy and sell tokens under the dTao system is fundamental to supporting the operation of the system.According to previous reports from ChainCatcher, the main subnetwork developer on Bittensor, Covenant AI, announced its withdrawal from Bittensor. Covenant AI founder Sam Dare stated that the reason Bittensor attracts builders, miners, validators, and investors into this ecosystem is because of its promise not to be controlled by any single entity. But this promise is a lie.
