Shinhan Asset Management partners with Plume on tokenized fund pilot

Resumen

Shinhan Asset Management has signed an MOU with blockchain network Plume to create a proof-of-concept for a Korean won-denominated tokenized fund. The pilot will use one of Shinhan's ultra-short-term bond funds as the underlying asset and BlackRock's BUIDL fund as a benchmark to test issuance and distribution. Key objectives include testing the overseas viability of won-denominated products in onchain markets, which are currently dominated by dollar assets, and evaluating compliance processes such as transfer restrictions, KYC, and AML controls. This follows other Shinhan Group blockchain initiatives, including Shinhan Card's stablecoin payment tests with Solana and Shinhan Bank's 2023 stablecoin remittance pilot.

South Korea’s Shinhan Asset Management signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with tokenization-focused blockchain network Plume to develop a proof of concept for a Korean won-denominated tokenized fund.

The pilot project will use a Shinhan won-denominated ultra-short-term bond fund as its underlying asset and BlackRock’s BUIDL tokenized fund as a benchmark to test the issuance and distribution process, Shinhan said on Friday.

The companies will also test compliance requirements for tokenized investment products, including whitelist-based transfer restrictions, onchain operations, Know-Your-Customer checks and Anti-Money Laundering controls.

Shinhan said the pilot is intended to test the overseas use of won-denominated financial products in onchain markets that have largely developed around dollar-denominated assets.

In April, fellow Shinhan Financial Group affiliate Shinhan Card signed an MOU with the Solana Foundation to test stablecoin payment technology and explore the use of non-custodial wallets. Another group affiliate, Shinhan Bank, completed a stablecoin remittance pilot in July 2023.

While Bitcoin (BTC) fell by 1.4% to around $62,000, impacting major altcoins like Ethereum and XRP, large investors remained active. According to data from Lookonchain, one major investor (address 0x117f) opened a long position and staked a significant amount of the altcoin $ASTER. Another (address 19pFLW) purchased an additional 300 BTC, bringing their total to 1,120 BTC. A different investor conducted a large sale of the altcoin $HYPE, reducing their holdings. Finally, a prominent BTC network "bear" (address 0x66f8) closed a $136 million short position for a $1.65 million profit and then opened a new long position on Bitcoin with 40x leverage.

Staking Inflation Reforms Trap Ethereum and Solana

The article discusses the "Morton's Fork" dilemma facing both Ethereum and Solana, where both blockchains must choose between two paths that lead to the same outcome: increased centralization of their validator networks. Ethereum researchers have proposed EIP-8363, a "Progressive Issuance Burn" plan. It would gradually increase the proportion of validator rewards burned as the total staked ETH rises, aiming to reduce new token issuance. If staking reaches 50% of the supply, rewards would drop to zero. This proposal has faced strong opposition from major staking service providers and DeFi platforms (e.g., Aave, ether.fi), as staking yields form a crucial base rate for DeFi leverage strategies. Critics argue slashing rewards would first hurt small, individual node operators due to fixed operational costs, accelerating centralization. Solana faces a similar challenge. Its validators have fixed costs but rely heavily on token issuance for rewards (only ~13% of validator income comes from fees). Two current proposals, SIMD-0550 and SIMD-0553, aim to accelerate the reduction of its inflation rate and increase fee burns, respectively. A vote concludes on August 18th. The core conflict is between large token holders (whose assets are diluted by issuance) and the concentrated staking industry that depends on high yields. While reducing issuance could curb the influx of capital into centralized staking services, it could also force out smaller validators first. The article concludes that as blockchains grow into large financial systems, underlying economic forces—yields, leverage, and operational costs—ultimately constrain their original design visions and push them toward centralization, regardless of the specific policy path chosen.

Experiment with Ethereum for this Nasdaq-listed giant lasted just one year! All ETH sold, and investments will be directed precisely into...

American digital asset management company FG Nexus (FGNX), which trades on Nasdaq, has completely exited its Ethereum holdings, ending a roughly one-year strategic experiment with the cryptocurrency. According to its latest filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the company sold all its assets in Ethereum (ETH) and Wrapped Staked ETH (wstETH) as of June 30, 2026. FG Nexus first made ETH a primary treasury asset in 2025, with its holdings peaking at 50,770 ETH in September of that year. However, following a market downturn starting in October 2025, the company rapidly reduced its positions. For the first half of 2026, FG Nexus reported a total loss of $45.207 million from digital asset operations, with $41.167 million attributed specifically to its ETH investments. The company stated it plans to redirect the capital from the ETH sales into income-generating real estate investments.

Gemini posts $108M Q2 net loss despite 37% revenue growth

Cryptocurrency exchange Gemini reported a net loss of $107.7 million in Q2 despite a 37% year-over-year revenue increase to $45.5 million. The loss occurred as core exchange revenue fell 38% to $12.5 million due to a sharp drop in trading volume. This was partially offset by a 149% surge in services revenue to $23.5 million, driven by strong growth in credit card and staking income. However, transaction losses ballooned to $20.1 million, primarily from a provision for credit losses related to an identity fraud event in the credit card portfolio. Operating expenses rose 24% compared to the prior year, though they decreased from Q1 due to cost-cutting. Following the earnings report, Gemini's stock fell nearly 5% in pre-market trading.

ParaFi Partner Bets That Capital from AI Will Rush into Bitcoin After the Bubble Bursts

The article discusses the shift of investment capital from cryptocurrencies to artificial intelligence (AI) sectors, as confirmed by data showing AI captured 80% of global venture funding in Q1 2026. This has contributed to stable but range-bound cryptocurrency prices due to reduced market interest and liquidity. While crypto analyst Arthur Hayes asserts that AI has absorbed all available capital, Jeff Park, a partner at ParaFi Capital, presents a contrarian view. He argues that the wealth creation from AI is ultimately beneficial for Bitcoin. Park believes that once the inevitable AI bubble bursts and capital flees, Bitcoin, as a perpetual asset, will be a primary destination for that liquidity. This prediction has drawn criticism from those who warn of a potential correlated downturn between stock and crypto markets if the AI sector collapses.
