According to CoinDesk, blockchain analysis company Chainalysis has released a new methodological proposal aimed at establishing a unified on-chain fund tracking standard framework for law enforcement agencies and investigators, to identify address clusters and determine their possible control relationships.The proposal defines the on-chain analysis structure in the form of "ontology," focusing on systematically breaking down the currently unstandardized concept of "cluster" in the industry into wallet segments and functional roles, and describing on-chain relationships through a two-layer structure: the first layer defines the transaction graph structure, and the second layer assesses inference confidence.Chainalysis stated that the framework aims to enhance the interpretability and legal applicability of on-chain forensic methods, and is designed and validated based on its practical experience in relevant cases within the U.S. Department of Justice, including the analytical application in the mixing service Bitcoin Fog case.The company's Chief Scientist Jacob Illum pointed out that the goal of the proposal is to answer "on what evidence basis can these addresses be considered to belong to the same entity," while emphasizing that on-chain analysis itself cannot directly identify the ultimate user identity and still requires legal investigative methods combined with centralized entities such as exchanges.Chainalysis indicated that the standard proposal is currently open for discussion within the industry, hoping to promote the formation of more unified technical specifications for on-chain analysis methods in the fields of law enforcement and compliance.

The South Korean government has announced significant project plans in the areas of chips, physical artificial intelligence, and artificial intelligence data centers. South Korean President Lee Jae-myung stated that it is necessary to ensure the development of artificial intelligence elements faster than other countries, and chip production construction must be completed as soon as possible.The current factory site selection is nearing its limits in terms of water resources and other infrastructure. The southwestern region will invest between 50 trillion to 200 trillion won in the new projects, while Gwangju and Jeolla may invest 52 trillion won in the projects. Regarding the detailed planning for the factories, the South Korean government announced that it is expected to build four chip factories in the southwest, with an investment of about 800 trillion won; Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix will each build two new factories; it is expected that investment in the chip sector will reach at least 300 trillion won over the next 15 years, including next-generation memory, edge artificial intelligence, and defense.Investment in the chip packaging cluster in the Chungcheong region is expected to reach 81 trillion won. It is anticipated that approximately 55 trillion won will be invested in the construction of artificial intelligence data centers.

The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) warned in its latest annual report that the bursting of the AI bubble, a rebound in inflation, and sovereign debt pressures are the three core risks currently threatening global economic prosperity. The report pointed out that if the returns on investment in the AI sector fall short of expectations, it could lead to the current capital expenditure boom evolving into a long-term investment contraction, triggering significant macroeconomic turbulence.The BIS specifically cautioned about the complex "circular financing" model within the AI industry chain, such as cross-shareholding and computing power binding procurement agreements between chip manufacturers and AI laboratories or cloud service providers. The institution emphasized that such transactions often lack transparency and pose the risk of the same asset being mortgaged multiple times. In addition, energy shocks caused by geopolitical conflicts could trigger a secondary rebound in inflation, compounded by high-leverage arbitrage trading by hedge funds in the government bond market, which would further exacerbate the fragility of the global financial system.

According to the Chosun Ilbo, the revised listing regulations for increasing the retention threshold in the South Korean stock market will be implemented on July 1. Some KOSDAQ DAT (Digital Asset Treasury) listed companies that have profited from investing in crypto assets are facing delisting risks.Data from the Korea Exchange shows that on June 26, Bitmax fell 6.3% to 1,228 KRW, with a market capitalization of 13.1 billion KRW, below the lower limit of 20 billion KRW for the second half of the year; Parataxis Ethereum has a market capitalization of 26.8 billion KRW, and BitPlanet has a market capitalization of 33.1 billion KRW. However, Parataxis Ethereum has not met the adjusted standard of 30 billion KRW set for January next year, and Parataxis Korea has been transferred for substantial review of its listing qualifications and suspended since April due to capital erosion.The delisting crisis is mainly influenced by the weakness of crypto assets and the outflow of funds from KOSDAQ. If the trend of declining market capitalization continues, related DAT companies may gradually enter the delisting process starting from early next year, beginning with Bitmax.

Grayscale Research's research director Zach Pandl stated that rather than raising the STRC preferred stock dividend yield by 50 basis points, it would be better to sell over $3 billion in Bitcoin to meet cash payment obligations and restore market confidence. As an institutional researcher, Zach Pandl publicly suggested that Strategy's sale of over $3 billion in BTC has certain indicative significance.If Strategy ultimately implements a large-scale sale, it will bring considerable selling pressure to the market and may weaken the narrative of companies continuously hoarding Bitcoin. This viewpoint also reflects market concerns about Strategy's capital structure and its heavy reliance on the sustainability of its Bitcoin balance sheet. Attention should be paid to Strategy's official response and whether there are actual Bitcoin transfers in its on-chain wallet.
