Trump's Digital Asset Advisor: U.S. Bitcoin Strategic Reserve Announcement Expected in Coming Weeks
Odaily Planet Daily news - Trump's digital asset advisor Patrick Witt stated that the Trump administration has cleared significant legal hurdles, and the announcement regarding the Bitcoin strategic reserve is expected in the upcoming weeks.
The U.S. government has made all arrangements to legally secure and protect these bitcoins. The U.S. government believes it should be part of the financial architecture, which has backing from the most powerful institutions. There is a genuine leadership opportunity, and many would say that banks might indeed need this legislation more than the crypto industry; this will be the new architecture of the future financial system. If the U.S. does not set rules, it can only follow others' rulebooks.
SpaceX Officially Submits IPO Application, Does Not Disclose Issuance Scale and Valuation
Odaily Planet Daily news - Elon Musk's SpaceX has announced plans for the largest IPO in history, providing investors with comprehensive disclosure of the financial details of its company, which covers rocket launches, satellite broadband, and artificial intelligence services. According to the prospectus submitted to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on Wednesday, the company reported sales of $4.7 billion for the first three months of this year, with an operating loss of $1.9 billion. Musk will hold 85.1% of the voting rights post-IPO. The company also plans to engage in mining activities on near-Earth asteroids. The documents also indicate that Anthropic will pay SpaceX $1.25 billion per month until May 2029. Although the issuance scale and proposed valuation have not been disclosed, media have previously reported that SpaceX discussed raising about $75 billion at a valuation of $1.75 trillion. SpaceX will be listed on Nasdaq under the stock code SPCX. (Gold Ten)
Odaily Planet Daily news - OpenAI has been working with investment banks to prepare for the submission of its IPO application in the coming days or weeks. Investment banks, including Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, are assisting OpenAI in drafting the IPO prospectus, with plans for the company to confidentially submit the documents to regulators, potentially as early as this Friday. Some informed sources state that OpenAI's goal is to initiate its listing as early as September, although these plans still face uncertainties and may change in the future.
Earlier this week, OpenAI cleared a major obstacle on its path to IPO: the company won a legal battle against co-founder Musk, who has now become an adversary to current CEO Altman. Musk has indicated that he plans to appeal the ruling. OpenAI still needs to overcome a series of other challenges, the most significant of which is market concern over whether it can generate sufficient revenue to support its substantial data center expenditure commitments. (WSJ)
Odaily Planet Daily news - WSJ reports that Anthropic's revenue is expected to reach $10.9 billion in the second quarter, doubling from $4.8 billion in the first quarter, and it will achieve operational profitability for the first time - due to its massive computational demands, the company may not maintain profitability throughout the year; operational profits reflect the costs of training new models but do not include stock-based compensation expenditures.
As part of the ongoing funding round, Anthropic disclosed this data to investors, with this round likely pushing its valuation above OpenAI's level.
Last summer, Anthropic shared financial data with investors, showing that it would not likely achieve profitability for the full year until at least 2028.
Previously, the Financial Times reported that Anthropic is considering raising hundreds of billions of dollars this summer to fund a major expansion of its computational capacity; informed sources expect the new funding round to achieve a pre-funding valuation of about $900 billion, potentially raising as much as $50 billion, which could be completed within two months.

Earlier reports indicated that Anthropic and SpaceX reached an agreement at the beginning of this month, under which the former will utilize the entire computational capacity of the latter's Colossus1 data center, providing Anthropic with over 300 megawatts of new computational power within a month (equivalent to over 220,000 NVIDIA GPUs), directly improving user experience for Claude Pro and Claude Max subscribers.

Odaily Planet Daily news - Informed sources revealed that cryptocurrency custody company Copper is seeking to sell the company at around a $500 million valuation, with investment bank Cantor Fitzgerald appointed to assist in the sale. Copper's core asset is the ClearLoop settlement system, which allows network participants to conduct delivery versus payment for custody internally without having to put assets on-chain, thereby reducing settlement risk. Copper closed its corporate custody business earlier in 2023 and shifted focus to providing service to institutional clients with ClearLoop. Earlier this year, Copper considered going public, but with Bitcoin trading prices below $80,000 and the AI sector attracting most capital, progress in the crypto IPO market has been limited this year.

Federal Reserve Meeting Minutes: More Decision-Makers Ready to Pave the Way for Interest Rate Hikes
Odaily Planet Daily news - Federal Reserve officials' concerns over inflation spurred by the Iran war intensified last month, with more officials stating that the Federal Reserve should pave the way for potential interest rate hikes. This indicates that incoming Federal Reserve Chairman Waller will take over a decision-making team that is increasingly leaning toward a hawkish stance. Additionally, most decision-makers at the April meeting indicated that if inflation continues to persist above the 2% target, further tightening of policies may be needed. The meeting minutes show: "To address this possibility, many participants expressed a preference for removing wording that implied a dovish bias in future interest rate decisions." These minutes are seen as "the most significant divergence for generations," further revealing two major shifts in camps welcoming Waller's appointment: a growing hawkish camp that is vigilant against inflation sparked by the Iran war and opposed to any discussion of lowering interest rates, and a shrinking dovish camp that still leans toward rate cuts. The primary reason driving policymakers further toward a hawkish stance remains inflationary pressures, which have intensified due to the war. The meeting minutes indicate that April's meeting was the second consecutive time where more policymakers believed that hikes might be warranted if inflation continued above target. (Gold Ten)

Additionally, the order instructs the Federal Reserve to clarify whether the twelve Federal Reserve Banks have the legal authority to independently grant or deny access to payment accounts and services, and requests the Federal Reserve to submit a report to the President within 120 days.

Odaily Planet Daily news - The European Union announced the formal launch of a public evaluation and consultation on the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA), assessing the framework's applicability under the fast evolution of digital assets, with a submission deadline for industry and public input set for August 31. This evaluation covers key regulatory areas under MiCA including issuance of crypto assets, asset-referenced tokens (ART), electronic money tokens (EMT), and crypto asset service providers (CASP).
The EU's consultation takes two paths: a public open opinion gathering and a technical consultation targeting financial institutions, regulators, and industry organizations. The European Commission stated that this move stems from the ongoing evolution of the global digital asset market and the competitive pressure brought by the rapid advancement of crypto regulations in the U.S. and Asia.
Meanwhile, the transitional period for MiCA will expire in July 2026, at which time crypto businesses will need to fully obtain compliance licenses. Recently, Zerohash became the first company to simultaneously obtain both MiCA CASP licenses and the Netherlands' electronic money institution licenses, and Poland has just passed its local MiCA implementation bill.

Odaily Planet Daily news - Solana founder toly stated this morning regarding the role of the Solana Foundation in ecological development: "Someone must first launch a product, then the foundation can promote it. People will provide feedback, try it out, and tell the team what is not good, and then the team will improve.
The foundation finds it challenging to push anything strongly... even if providing funding or investment, there must first be a product, and someone willing to use it, so that the ecology can accelerate development."
Odaily Planet Daily news - Dragonfly partner Haseeb Qureshi tweeted on X stating that the order book (CLOB) model does not resolve liquidity issues for RWA assets. Hyperliquid has indeed mastered the liquidity of a few macro RWA assets, but outside the top 10 ranked in trading volume (which accounts for about 90% of trading volume), liquidity falls off a cliff.
When retail demand is strong enough, order book models can operate, but if every asset has to build its order book, it means you must cold start demand one ticker at a time by subsidizing the "rental" of liquidity, ultimately resulting in a bunch of weak liquidity markets.
Variational bypassed all that with the RFQ (Request for Quote) model. RFQ is the true trading method for institutions, where market makers provide on-demand real-time quotes and hedge in the main trading venues once orders come in. This allows Variational to directly tap into mainstream liquidity from TradFi, mapping it onto-chain—collateral managed within smart contracts, settlement done via stablecoins, while liquidity comes from those already trading in the largest underlying markets like CME and NYSE.
This means anyone can gain non-permissioned access to the same market depth and spreads as traditional markets. Once the cold start issue is resolved, the speed of launching new markets can be as rapid as software releases. By next year, RWA perpetual contracts are expected to become the largest category of on-chain contracts, surpassing the total of BTC and ETH perpetual contracts combined, with the platform that ultimately wins in this path not resembling traditional exchanges.
