  • CEO Coinbase заявил, что биржа больше не будет работать с юридическими фирмами, которые нанимают бывших сотрудников SEC.
  • Речь идет о тех работниках Комиссии, которые были вовлечены в политику, вредившую криптоиндустрии.

Генеральный директор криптовалютной биржи Coinbase Брайан Армстронг заявил, что компания больше не будет работать с юридическими фирмами, которые нанимают бывших сотрудников Комиссии по ценным бумагам и биржам США (SEC), что не поддерживали прокриптовалютную политику.

We've let all the law firms we work with know, that if they hire anyone who committed these bad deeds in the (soon to be) prior administration, we will no longer be a client of theirs.

Senior partners at these law firms seem unaware of the crypto industry's position on this.… https://t.co/k8R6NtfTV1 pic.twitter.com/RT0k408i9f

«Мы сообщили всем юридическим фирмам, с которыми сотрудничаем, что если они наймут кого-то, кто совершил эти плохие поступки при (будущей) предыдущей администрации, мы больше не будем их клиентами», — добавил Армстронг.

Глава Coinbase привел пример компании Milbank, которая наняла бывшего главу отдела правоприменения SEC Гурбира С. Гревала. Биржа прекратила сотрудничество с фирмой и заверила, что не возобновит его, пока последний остается в штате.

Кроме того, Армстронг осудил практику найма таких лиц, назвав это «нарушением этики». По его словам, некоторые бывшие должностные лица SEC намеренно уклонялись от публикации четких регуляторных правил, что вредило развитию криптоиндустрии.

По его мнению, у них была возможность покинуть SEC, «многие хорошие люди это сделали».

«Мы, как индустрия, не должны финансировать тех, кто злоупотреблял своей властью. Пусть ваши юридические фирмы знают, что найм таких людей означает потерю вас как клиента», — подытожил CEO Coinbase.

Ранее стало известно, что биржа Coinbase прекратила работу программы USDC Rewards для пользователей из ЕЭЗ.

Here’s why Sonic’s price rebound may be more fragile than it looks

Sonic's recent price rebound appears fragile despite a short-term surge driven by a near-doubling of on-chain transactions and increased spot volume. However, the rally lacks a solid foundation: over a 30-day period, network transactions and spot volume remain down 65% and 31.6%, respectively. Crucially, daily active users have plummeted from a peak of 62,200 in early June to around 6,400, indicating a severe loss of user engagement and sustained demand. While perpetual traders show mild bullish sentiment, the network's high churn rate and thin activity suggest the recovery is limited. The rebound coincides with major governance changes, including leadership resignations and a halt to the token's annual mint, adding further uncertainty to Sonic's long-term outlook.

Doubao and Qwen Will Discontinue Agent Functionality on July 15

On July 4th, Doubao and Tongyi Qianwen announced the impending shutdown of their user-created "AI Agent" features. Doubao confirmed its agent feature will be taken offline on July 15, directing users to ByteDance's CatBox app for similar needs. On the same day, Tongyi Qianwen notified users, specifying that personalized interactive agents and user-built agent functions will cease on July 10, with all agent features and services completely deactivated by July 15. After this date, access to agent configurations and historical chat records will be lost. This adjustment impacts core user scenarios like role-playing, personal assistants, and vertical tool agents. The shutdown date coincides with the official implementation of China's "Interim Measures for the Administration of Artificial Intelligence Human-like Interactive Services" on July 15. The new regulations impose strict rules on "human-like emotional interaction services," requiring platforms to implement measures like anti-addiction systems, minor verification, and content moderation. This move is widely seen as a proactive step by the platforms to align with regulatory timelines and mitigate compliance risks. Additionally, commercial challenges are a key driver. Analysis suggests that casual, human-like chat agents generate high-frequency, low-value interactions, leading to high computational costs with poor monetization. As the AI application market shifts from user growth to proving value, sustaining such "high-cost, low-efficiency" user-generated content becomes difficult. Both platforms have outlined transition plans. Doubao will allow data viewing and self-backup for a period after shutdown, with data scheduled for permanent deletion by October 15. Tongyi Qianwen similarly advised users to save important content via copying or screenshots before the deadline. This strategic retreat from C-end agent features signals a broader market shift. Compliance capability and sustainable business models are replacing user scale and feature richness as the new core competitive dimensions. Tongyi Qianwen's recent move to fully open its Agent and Skill platforms to third-party enterprises and developers further underscores a strategic pivot from low-value C-end services to high-value B-end enterprise scenarios.

Why Did Codex and ChatGPT Merge? What's Next for Codex? OpenAI Core Leader Answers Everything

In 2026, OpenAI's Codex saw explosive growth, with weekly active users surging over 5x to 5 million since January, driven largely by the February launch of its desktop app. Codex desktop lead Andrew Ambrosino explains key shifts behind its evolution. A core change is the inversion of development costs: implementation is now cheap, while curation and taste—judging which of many AI-generated prototypes is valuable—have become the new scarcities. Ambrosino defines taste as a blend of aesthetics, systems thinking, direction, and semantic coherence in interaction. He notes AI still struggles with design because evaluating it requires human cultural context and abstract reasoning about how components relate—capabilities beyond current models. Timing is critical: the same Codex app would have failed months earlier; success hinges on the model's capabilities at launch. Roles are blurring within his team, with engineers, designers, and PMs overlapping significantly. However, Ambrosino cautions against eliminating specialized roles entirely, as each field retains deep expertise. On AI-assisted development, the focus has shifted from measuring code written by AI to distinguishing between supervised and unsupervised generation. A current challenge is teaching models to simplify code, not just add complexity. The merger of Codex and ChatGPT stems from observed user behavior: non-developers adopted Codex for general knowledge work despite its developer-centric interface. This revealed a collapsing boundary between specialized tools and universal assistants. The vision is a "home base" that orchestrates tasks across external professional tools (like Excel or Premiere Pro) via connectors, rather than rebuilding everything internally. An internal example showed Codex helping edit video by interacting with Premiere Pro's files and even writing a plugin for it. The future direction is a unified, extensible platform that serves as a central hub for automating and managing work across any specialized tool the user employs.

Bitcoin ETFs add $222M, but BlackRock sees outflows – Why it matters

On July 2nd, Bitcoin spot ETFs saw a net inflow of $222 million, ending a 10-day outflow streak that totaled $2.709 billion. Fidelity's FBTC led with $166 million in inflows, while BlackRock's typically dominant IBIT recorded $40.4 million in outflows. Despite the fresh inflows, Bitcoin's price, which had fallen below $60k during the outflow period, only rebounded to around $62,713, failing to reclaim the $65k level. Ethereum ETFs followed a similar pattern, with nine days of outflows before turning positive on July 1st and 2nd. In contrast, other altcoin ETFs like those for Solana and XRP saw significant net inflows during the same period. Overall, total assets under management for U.S. crypto ETFs have declined to levels last seen in November 2024.

How Celestia’s network upgrade triggered TIA’s 102% volume surge

Celestia's network upgrade on July 1st successfully triggered a significant market response. The price of TIA increased by over 10%, and its daily trading volume surged by 102% to $59.5 million. This rally was primarily driven by renewed spot market participation. However, a divergence emerged: while spot buying was strong, futures market data indicated persistent selling pressure and cautious sentiment among derivatives traders. Despite this, bullish leverage remained in place with positive funding rates. Technically, TIA approached a key resistance level at $0.4045, with a potential breakout above it targeting the next resistance at $0.5000. The market structure showed a contrast between optimistic spot activity and skeptical futures positioning.
