The SEC opens public comment period on Canary Funds' Litecoin ETF, comments due by May 26
According to former Fox Business reporter Eleanor Terrett, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has delayed its decision on the spot ETF application for Litecoin (LTC) submitted by Canary Capital and has initiated a public comment period to assess whether the ETF meets regulatory requirements to prevent fraud and manipulation. Comments are due by May 26 (Beijing time May 27), with rebuttals due by June 9 (Beijing time June 10).
This delay aligns with Bloomberg analyst James Seyffart's prediction yesterday that there is a "high probability of choosing to delay a final decision rather than directly approving or rejecting it."

Trump: Suggests imposing a 50% tariff on the EU starting June 1
According to Jinshi, U.S. President Trump stated on social media that the main purpose of the EU's establishment was to take advantage of the U.S. in trade, but the EU has found it difficult to deal with. Their strong trade barriers, value-added tax, ridiculous corporate penalties, non-monetary trade barriers, currency manipulation, and unfair and unreasonable lawsuits against U.S. companies have led to an annual trade deficit of over $2.5 billion, which is completely unacceptable. Our discussions with them have made no progress. Therefore, I suggest imposing a 50% tariff on the EU starting June 1, 2025. No tariffs will be imposed if products are manufactured or produced in the U.S.
As a result of Trump's remarks, European stocks fell further, with the German DAX index, French CAC40 index, and Spanish IBEX35 index all dropping over 1%, and the Italian FTSE MIB index falling by as much as 2.00% during the day.
