SK Hynix announced that it will officially begin mass production of 16Gb LPDDR6 low-power mobile DRAM in the second half of this year, with the first products set to be featured in Xiaomi's next-generation flagship smartphone. The product was developed in March and utilizes 10nm class sixth-generation (1c) technology, offering improvements in data processing speed and energy efficiency compared to the previous generation. SK Hynix has been supplying LPDDR products to Xiaomi since 2013, maintaining a long-term partnership.LPDDR is primarily used in mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets, combining low power consumption with high performance. Recently, driven by demand from AI servers, LPDDR prices have continued to rise, with contract prices increasing steadily, leading to a 64.5% quarter-over-quarter growth in global mobile DRAM revenue in the first quarter. SK Hynix and Samsung Electronics are ahead of Micron in preparing for the mass production of LPDDR6. Additionally, the mass production of LPDDR6 is expected to accelerate competition in the SO-CAMM (low-power memory module) market, which is seen as a complementary solution for AI server CPUs. NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang visited the SK Hynix booth at the Taipei International Computer Show in June, leaving a message of "LOVE SOCAMM" for the 192GB SO-CAMM.

A Massachusetts judge approved a revised complaint submitted by the state attorney general against the prediction market platform Kalshi on Tuesday. The new complaint accuses Kalshi of illegally offering sports betting without the permission of the state's betting commission and allegedly attracting users under the age of 21 to participate in betting through marketing on college campuses.The state had previously issued a preliminary injunction against Kalshi, suspending its sports event contract business. However, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) had previously submitted a brief to the court supporting Kalshi, arguing that federal agencies have exclusive jurisdiction over prediction markets and are not subject to state-level regulation. Additionally, several traditional betting organizations in the U.S. are lobbying Congress to explicitly prohibit such sports-related event contracts in the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (CLARITY Act).

According to CoinDesk, MetaMask has announced the launch of a new self-custody account called "Money Account," which integrates stablecoin earnings, payment consumption, and trading functions into a single wallet system, further promoting its transformation into a comprehensive financial platform.This product is released by Consensys and built on the Monad blockchain, with the core asset being the USD-pegged stablecoin mUSD. Users can earn up to approximately 4% floating annual yield while holding assets, with funds automatically allocated to decentralized lending protocols such as Morpho, and Aave will be integrated later.Unlike traditional DeFi products, this account does not require manual transfers of funds between protocols; earnings automatically take effect after deposit and can be directly used for token exchanges, perpetual contracts, and prediction market trading functions.

According to Bloomberg, dozens of financial institutions, including Visa, Stripe, Mastercard, BlackRock, and Coinbase, plan to jointly launch a new stablecoin called OUSD, which will adopt a business model of shared revenue among partners.

On Wednesday, the U.S. House Financial Services Committee held a hearing to discuss the changing roles of banks and fintech companies, with one focus being the "streamlined master account" proposal that the Federal Reserve is considering, which would allow certain crypto banks and fintech companies limited direct access to the Federal Reserve's payment system. A Federal Reserve master account allows financial institutions to directly use the Federal Reserve payment network and gain the most direct access to the U.S. dollar monetary system. Institutions without this account typically need to rely on partner banks that have master accounts to provide services.The so-called "streamlined account" is a limited-function version intended to provide limited access for new financial institutions. Republican Congressman Dan Meuser stated at the hearing that access to the Federal Reserve payment system is no small matter, and the core issue is which institutions should be allowed to directly use these critical payment channels. Traditional institutions like community banks are concerned that crypto and fintech companies are not subject to equally stringent regulation, and direct access could pose risks to security and stability. The crypto industry generally supports the proposal, arguing that direct access to the Federal Reserve payment system should have been opened long ago, as it would help reduce reliance on intermediary banks and promote innovation.In May of this year, Trump also signed an executive order requiring the Federal Reserve to assess policies for opening central bank payment channels to fintech companies, including crypto companies. Previously, the Kansas City Federal Reserve had approved Kraken's parent company Payward for a "limited purpose account" in March, sparking discussions in the market about the extent to which crypto and fintech companies should have direct access to Federal Reserve services. A representative from Anchorage Digital stated at the hearing that if the U.S. wants to continue as a global financial center, it needs to allow for innovative federal and state regulatory frameworks.

DeFi protocol Altura's CEO Ranveer Arora announced that due to "unprecedented" withdrawal requests over the weekend, the platform will orderly close its stablecoin yield vault. It is reported that within 24 hours prior to the announcement, Altura processed over 8.5 million USDT in instant redemptions.This wave of withdrawals was primarily influenced by market panic triggered by the severe de-pegging of another yield-bearing stablecoin, Main Street (msUSD). Although Altura officials clarified that they have no direct risk exposure to Main Street, concerns arose in the market because both projects share the same reserve proof service provider, Accountable. Currently, Altura has notified all counterparties and has begun to unwind its strategic funds in exchanges, private credit, and real-world assets (RWA) to ensure that all redemptions can be completed fairly and transparently. It is understood that the total locked value of the vault on HyperEVM once reached 39 million dollars.

IBM CEO Arvind Krishna recently expressed serious doubts about the massive capital expenditures by competitors in the pursuit of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) during an interview. Krishna estimates that the current cost of building a 1-gigawatt data center is about $80 billion; if the entire industry deploys 100 gigawatts of computing power to achieve AGI, total capital expenditures could reach $8 trillion. He pointed out that this means companies would need to generate $800 billion in profit just to cover interest, making it fundamentally impossible to achieve a return on investment from a business logic perspective.Additionally, Krishna believes that the probability of achieving AGI relying on currently known large language model (LLM) technology is extremely low (only 0% to 1%), unless there are fundamental technological breakthroughs in integrating knowledge with LLMs. Despite his pessimistic view on the short-term realization of AGI, he still acknowledges that generative AI will unleash trillions of dollars in productivity value for enterprises.

According to Crowdfund Insider, MetaMask has launched an address poisoning attack detection feature to identify scam addresses that are highly similar to addresses with which users have interacted in the past. Address poisoning attacks refer to when attackers send small amounts of tokens to a user's wallet, causing disguised addresses to appear in transaction records, leading users to mistakenly copy and transfer funds later. In recent years, address poisoning attacks have surged. According to security data from Blockaid, over 65.4 million such incidents occurred between January 2025 and February 2026.The new feature in MetaMask will automatically compare addresses pasted by users with historical interaction addresses. If it detects that the first and last characters are the same but the characters in between are different, it will display a blocking reminder during the transfer process. MetaMask has also improved the way addresses are displayed, showing more characters to reduce the possibility of confusion. This feature is now available on MetaMask Mobile and the browser extension.
