According to Caixin, Huasheng Securities issued a notice to clients stating that from June 15, Beijing time, the firm would adjust services for existing investor accounts in mainland China: first, in terms of trading services in mainland China: all types of new positions and increasing positions will be suspended, with only selling and closing operations supported; second, in terms of fund transfer services in mainland China: transfer of funds and securities will be suspended, while the transfer out function will remain normal. The notice indicates that this adjustment is to comply with regulatory requirements during the two-year concentrated rectification period in the industry, promoting the standardized development of cross-border securities business, and emphasizes that this adjustment does not affect service provision for existing investors abroad nor the security of all clients' existing assets, which can still be normally queried, held, and sold. This also implies that, apart from the three brokerage firms directly "named" by the China Securities Regulatory Commission on May 22 (Futu, Tiger Brokers, Chuangqiao), some smaller brokerage firms will also commence rectification of existing illegal businesses.

All investors will receive a full refund. Major Fantasy competitions will continue until June 18, until remaining rewards are fully distributed.

Felix announces that the HIP-3 perpetual contract DEX will begin shutting down on June 19
Felix stated that due to the operation stop of the USDH stablecoin, the Felix HIP-3 perpetual contract DEX and all active markets will begin shutting down on June 19, with settlement to be completed on June 20. The platform advises all traders to close active positions before this. Each market will be settled in the order of commodities, stocks, and cryptocurrencies, with each market's settlement occurring an hour apart.
