South Korea delays Digital Asset Basic Act ahead of June elections
South Korea has delayed debate on its main digital asset bill until after June elections, postponing long-awaited rules for stablecoins, crypto exchanges, and institutional investors in one of the world’s busiest retail crypto markets.
The National Assembly’s National Policy Committee left the proposed Digital Asset Basic Act off the agenda during its final bill-review subcommittee meeting before parliamentary recess on May 12.

Lawmakers are unlikely to revisit the bill before the June 3 local elections.

As Cryptopolitan reported in late 2025, the bill has been stuck for months due to unresolved disputes between the Financial Services Commission and the Bank of Korea over stablecoin oversight. The May 12 omission extends that pattern.

Pi Network (PI) continues to remain under heavy market pressure as bearish momentum dominates the crypto sector. The token is currently trading near the $0.17 range after failing to maintain its earlier recovery attempts, with analysts warning that further downside toward $0.15 is still possible if selling pressure increases. Upcoming token unlocks and weak buying demand are adding more uncertainty to the market. 

Despite recent ecosystem upgrades, including the upcoming Protocol 23 Mainnet update and smart contract developments, investor sentiment remains cautious. Traders are concerned that millions of new PI tokens entering circulation could create additional supply pressure, limiting short-term upside momentum. 

Technical indicators are also showing weakness, with PI trading below major moving averages and struggling to break key resistance levels around $0.18–$0.19. Market analysts say Pi Network now needs stronger real-world adoption, exchange expansion, and ecosystem utility to restore bullish confidence. 

While long-term supporters still believe Pi Network could recover as development progresses, the short-term outlook remains volatile. Investors are closely watching the May 15 Mainnet upgrade deadline and broader crypto market conditions for signs of a potential trend reversal.

Are large holders still accumulating LDO?
On the other hand, the top 100 LDO addresses continued adding tokens to their holdings, according to Nansen.

Data showed that over the past seven days, the top 100 LDO addresses increased holdings by 1.26%.

Meanwhile, exchange reserves declined by 0.98% during the same period. This suggested that large holders continued accumulating LDO while exchange supply declined.

In addition, intraday traders appeared to follow the same trend.

CoinGlass showed that $0.42 on the downside and $0.446 on the upside were major Liquidation Levels. These were the levels where traders appeared heavily over-leveraged.

At those levels, traders built $1.66 million worth of long positions and $445K worth of short positions. This indicated that traders expected LDO’s price to maintain its upward momentum.

When Strategy (MSTR), the largest publicly traded company holding bitcoin, first floated the idea of selling its bitcoin stash to fund its dividend obligations during its recent earnings call, it raised concerns among investors and the crypto community.

However, executive chairman Michael Saylor sat down with CoinDesk senior analyst James Van Straten at Consensus in Miami to explain, in his view,why the announcement was "inconsequential."

As the firm expands from a bitcoin treasury company into a full-spectrum capital markets operation, in a wide-ranging conversation with CoinDesk, Saylor discussed the company's potential sale of bitcoin to fund dividends, the mechanics of its preferred stock (called Stretch or STRC), and what critics get wrong about its trading strategy.

This interview has been edited for brevity and clarity. This is the first part of a series of stories from CoinDesk's interview with Michael Saylor

Michael Saylor: It's a big nothing burger from an economic point of view. If we were to fund all of our dividends exclusively by selling bitcoin over the next year, we would buy 20 bitcoin for every one we sold. So it's no different than buying 20 bitcoin and selling no bitcoin. And then from a market point of view, bitcoin has somewhere between $20 and $50 billion of liquidity today. If we were to fund all of our dividends with bitcoin, you would be talking about maybe $3 million; it's immeasurable. It's really inconsequential.Saylor: We use two metrics. The first is $BTC yield. What's the benefit to the common equity shareholder? If there's no yield, it's equity neutral. If there's a negative yield, it's dilutive. If there's a positive yield, it's accretive. The second metric is credit: what is the impact on the balance sheet? Does it create more risk?

For example, if we used all of our dollars to buy back

'I don’t think that’s crazy': Here is why Circle is betting on new $3 billion blockchain


ircle’s (CRCL) upcoming Arc blockchain and its $222 million token presale are raising a broader question for crypto investors: should Circle still be valued mainly as a stablecoin issuer, or as an infrastructure company building the rails for digital finance?

Alongside its quarterly earnings this week, the company announced a major fundraising round for Arc ahead of a planned summer launch, valuing the network at roughly $3 billion backed by investors including a16z crypto, Apollo, BlackRock and ARK Invest.

While earnings results were mixed, the news resonated well with investors, as Circle shares surged more than 15% on Monday, suggesting the launch addresses a critical compliance gap for Wall Street.

"We have built what we believe will be one of the most institutionally-ready networks in the world,” Allaire explained during the earnings call, describing Arc as a system designed to be operated by financial institutions with the "trust required for global economic infrastructure."



While this move was cheered by the market and some analysts, including Clear Street's Owen Lau, who called Arc a "second growth engine" for the USDC issuer, there are still questions about the valuation of Circle's shares versus Arc's token, as well as rising competition.
