On July 6, concerns over the risks of single-stock leveraged ETFs in South Korea have intensified, with an opposition lawmaker calling for the delisting of such products. On Monday, Ahn Cheol-soo, a member of the conservative People Power Party and former presidential candidate, posted on social media urging strong corrective measures, including delisting, for the Korean leveraged ETFs tracking Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix. He stated that the KOSPI index 'has become a casino,' and these products represent 'a complete policy failure, eroding trillions of won in corporate value and national wealth every day.' His remarks have heightened concerns among policymakers and investors regarding the risks associated with these ETFs. These products aim to achieve double returns on the underlying stocks, and their mechanical rebalancing process forces them to buy more when prices rise and sell more when they fall—potentially amplifying market volatility.

On July 6, Critini Research analyst Jukan pointed out that Samsung and SK Hynix are re-evaluating the timing for adopting hybrid bonding in HBM, and it may not be implemented even by HBM5. There are two core reasons for this: first, JEDEC is discussing relaxing the thickness standard for HBM5 to a maximum of about 1000μm (HBM3E is 720μm, and HBM4 has been relaxed to 775μm). With the standard loosening, the thinning advantage of hybrid bonding without bumps is no longer urgent; second, there are simpler alternatives for heat dissipation—Samsung has developed the Heat Path Block, and SK Hynix has launched iHBM (ICE HBM), both of which involve placing independent heat dissipation devices next to HBM, planned for application starting with HBM5, which poses lower technical difficulty and more stable commercialization. Additionally, major clients like Nvidia currently do not have urgent demands for high-stacking products with over 16 layers, and 12-layer products may still be mainstream in the HBM4E phase. However, research and development of hybrid bonding has not stagnated. Currently, the I/O count of HBM4 has doubled to 2048, and the existing TC thermal compression bonding process is nearing its limits; if the I/O count further doubles to 4096 in the future HBM5E phase, the lateral diffusion of bumps will make TC bonding difficult to support, necessitating the use of copper direct bonding for hybrid bonding to achieve higher density connections. Jukan assesses that in the short term, due to simpler solutions for thickness and heat dissipation, hybrid bonding will not be deployed on a large scale; however, in the medium to long term, when I/O density explodes again, it will still be an inevitable direction. This will directly impact the market expectations of core suppliers of hybrid bonding equipment like Besi. The delay in the technology shift means that the timeline for scaling up related equipment orders needs to be re-evaluated.

On July 6, according to HTX market information, LIT (Lighter) has continued to rebound after hitting a low of $0.77 in early April, breaking through $2.7 today, with a cumulative increase of over 2.5 times and a 24-hour rise of 22%. Recent positive developments for LIT (Lighter) are as follows: On June 30, Lighter announced a significant adjustment to its token economic model. Future buybacks funded by trading platform revenue will shift from simple buybacks to complete permanent destruction, with plans to first destroy approximately 15.5 million LIT tokens that have already been repurchased, accounting for about 6.3% of the circulating supply. This mechanism will officially be implemented starting in the third quarter of 2026. Additionally, the source of staking rewards will shift from trading platform revenue to ecological reserve funds. On July 1, Lighter became an official perpetual contract partner of Robinhood. Lighter is directly integrated into the Robinhood Wallet, allowing for margin trading of perpetual contracts using assets from the Robinhood Chain. The platform also launched an $11 million LIT reward pool, offering Robinhood users double points and three months of zero-fee trading. Vitalik Buterin praised Lighter. Ethereum founder Vitalik had a fireside chat with Lighter founder Vlad Novakovski on May 18, calling Lighter 'one of the more successful and noteworthy new projects in the Ethereum ecosystem.' The platform has seen strong growth in trading volume, TVL, and revenue. Lighter's daily perpetual contract trading volume once exceeded $10 billion, with a cumulative trading volume of nearly $200 billion over 30 days. The TVL has stabilized above $530 million, with a historical peak exceeding $1.4 billion, and it has been listed by Grayscale among the top 15 on-chain application revenues, achieving approximately $50 million in protocol revenue. The founder announced today that he has joined the CFTC Innovation Advisory Committee. Lighter founder and CEO Vladimir Novakovski has been appointed as a member of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Innovation Advisory Committee, which is responsible for advising the CFTC on issues at the intersection of technology, law, and finance.

On July 6, BIT Official released a daily chart analysis stating that one of our views for the coming weeks is that Bitcoin's implied volatility may fall below 30% this summer, similar to 2023 and 2025. If this occurs, the options premiums could depreciate by about 30% solely due to the narrowing volatility. Therefore, even though the current implied volatility is close to 36%, we still believe there are opportunities to sell volatility. The market alternates between allowing options buyers and sellers to profit. Currently, we see the opportunity in capturing gains, but we are ready to adjust our strategy as soon as the market environment changes.

According to Beating Monitoring, Enterprise WeChat has partnered with hardware manufacturers to launch multiple AI voice recorders, closing the loop on offline communication records. These devices seamlessly connect with the Enterprise WeChat voice chat application, accurately capturing voices in noisy environments such as trade shows, and enabling one-click, instant recording. The voice chat application integrates schedules and the workspace on the software side. When a meeting starts, the system will prompt a recording reminder to avoid forgetting; the workspace has also added a unified entry point for users to easily find past records. After recording, the backend uses voice recognition to identify speakers, and AI automatically generates meeting minutes and assigns tasks, turning verbal communication directly into digital assets for the enterprise.
