Парагвайский регулятор пресек незаконный майнинг биткоина в церкви

Регулятор утверждает, что служители церкви тайно подключили майнинговые установки в обход официального счетчика электричества, незаконно перекачивая электроэнергию для добычи криптовалюты. ANDE не сообщило, как долго работали в церкви ASIC-майнеры, однако заявило, что подобные неправомерные действия создают дополнительную нагрузку на национальную электросеть, что может вызвать перебои с электричеством.

Лица, замешанные в незаконной добыче криптовалют, должны будут возместить ущерб и заплатить $13 000. Кроме того, нарушителям могут быть предъявлены уголовные обвинения. Согласно парагвайскому законодательству, кража электроэнергии может повлечь наказание в виде тюремного заключения сроком до десяти лет.

Регулятор уверен, что эти меры должны обеспечить жизнеспособность энергетических ресурсов страны и предотвратить незаконную добычу криптовалют, поскольку майнинг становится популярным в Парагвае. ANDE отметило, что недавний инцидент с нелегальной добычей биткоина в церкви говорит об острой необходимости проработать регулирование криптовалют. По мере роста спроса на цифровые активы, растет и объем незаконной майнинговой деятельности.

По данным Института социального обеспечения (IPS), местные майнинговые компании создают мало рабочих мест и негативно влияют на гидроэнергетические ресурсы Парагвая, пользуясь сниженными тарифами на электричество. С 1 августа правительство Парагвая повысило плату за электроэнергию для майнеров на 14%.

June Transaction Volume Doubles: x402 Ecosystem Continues to Expand, Content Monetization Narrative Faces Crucial Test

X402, a protocol for AI and data services, experienced significant growth in June. Its transaction volume doubled compared to May, primarily driven by the AI inference routing service BlockRun. The ecosystem expanded with new integrations: Apify enabled data scraping services, Exa extended its AI search to Solana, and Seal launched 'Hacks', a marketplace for automated AI agents. The protocol itself received crucial upgrades, including 'Builder Codes' for tracking and affiliate systems and 'Batch Settlement' to enable practical micropayments for high-frequency AI tasks. Major external validation came from tech giants. Amazon Web Services (AWS) launched a solution for AI traffic metering at its edge nodes. More significantly, Cloudflare opened its waitlist for a Content Monetization Gateway. This gateway allows websites to charge AI bots and other automated agents for accessing content, using x402 for stablecoin payments. This addresses a core internet monetization problem and represents x402's most promising path to mass adoption, though Cloudflare's CEO noted current blockchain scalability remains a critical hurdle. Current leading use cases are AI inference routing and paid data feeds. However, the large-scale real-world test with Cloudflare's gateway will be decisive in determining if x402 can transition from a useful tool to a fundamental infrastructure component for a new web economy where AI agents pay for the content they consume.

RWA Weekly: EU Proposes Revision of MiCA to Cover Tokenization and Non-EU Stablecoins; Swift and 17 Banks to Pilot Tokenized Cross-Border Payments

RWA Weekly: EU Proposes MiCA Revision for Tokenization and Non-EU Stablecoins; Swift to Pilot Tokenized Cross-Border Payments with 17 Banks During the statistical period of July 3-10, 2026, the RWA sector showed signs of recovery. The total on-chain market capitalization of RWAs rebounded to $33.12 billion, ending a prolonged decline. The stablecoin market cap also returned above $300 billion, with active addresses and holders increasing, indicating restored market vitality. Key regulatory developments include China promoting the use of digital yuan in consumption vouchers, the EU considering revisions to its MiCA framework to cover tokenization and non-EU stablecoins, and Kazakhstan authorizing stablecoin use for cross-border corporate and government payments. In Hong Kong, HSBC issued its first "digitally native" structured product. Major project updates feature Swift announcing readiness of its blockchain ledger for a 24/7 tokenized cross-border payment pilot involving 17 global banks. Ondo launched a perpetuals platform allowing tokenized stocks as collateral. Sony received conditional U.S. OCC approval to launch a stablecoin-focused trust bank in 2027. Tether plans to natively issue USDT on Bitcoin via the RGB protocol. Significant funding rounds saw Securitize planning to deploy over $400 million for acquisitions to expand its institutional tokenization business, while Tether invested $20 million in Brazil's Mercado Bitcoin to support its growth in on-chain financial services. Analysis highlights that stablecoins are evolving into global financial infrastructure with regional specializations and that institutions should consider international expansion to gain practical experience in the RWA tokenization space amidst evolving regulations.

The first to catch the wave of the Robinhood Chain hype is Arbitrum, up nearly 20%

"ARB, the native token of Arbitrum, surged nearly 20% recently, emerging as a top-performing L2 token. This rally is attributed to the launch of 'Robinhood Chain,' a Real-World Asset (RWA) Layer 2 built using Arbitrum's technology. The launch has brought renewed attention to the 'Arbitrum Expansion Plan' (AEP), a year-and-a-half-old program. AEP allows external projects to build their own chains using Arbitrum's Orbit technology. In return, these 'tenant' chains that do not settle on Arbitrum's main networks must share 10% of their net protocol revenue with the Arbitrum ecosystem—8% to the DAO treasury and 2% to the developer guild. While smaller chains like Degen Chain previously triggered AEP, Robinhood Chain is the first major, high-profile tenant, making the revenue-sharing model economically significant for the first time. Initial data from Robinhood Chain is impressive, with over 35 million transactions, 350,000 addresses, $2.5 billion in TVL, and over $1 billion in DEX volume shortly after launch. However, its current protocol revenue, at roughly $146,000 net, translates to only a minimal payout to Arbitrum DAO. The ARB price surge thus reflects the market's anticipation of future revenue as Robinhood's vast $324 billion platform assets potentially migrate on-chain. This 'landlord' model mirrors Optimism's approach with its OP Stack and Superchain. However, Optimism's model faces pressure as its largest tenant, Base, announced plans to depart, causing a significant drop in OP's price. Similarly, analysts question Robinhood Chain's long-term dependence on Arbitrum, noting its daily sequencer revenue already nears three times that of Arbitrum itself. There is speculation that, like Base, it may eventually seek independence, with ETH potentially being its primary economic token rather than ARB."
