币界网报道：

欧洲领先的投资公司CoinShares公布了2024年第二季度的强劲财务业绩。该公司的收入比2023年同期翻了一番多。

根据收益报告，CoinShares在2024年第二季度的收入为2250万英镑（2850万美元），比2023年第二季的1070万英镑（1350万美元）同比增长110%。

CoinShares第二季度盈利5.13亿美元

纳税后，CoinShares的运营净利润为4.039亿英镑（超过5.1亿美元）。去年同期，该公司的税后收入为1000万英镑（1270万美元）。

CoinShares上一季度财务增长背后的主要因素之一是该公司对FTX破产程序的索赔，该程序在出售后的回收率为116%，回报率为2880万英镑（3670万美元）。另一个因素是CoinShares收购了竞争对手资产管理公司Valkyrie Funds，这增加了其交易所交易产品和管理费。

CoinShares表示，它专注于Valkyrie现货比特币交易所交易基金（ETF）BRRR和比特币矿业ETF WGMI的产品开发和营销举措，尽管本季度市场下跌，但这些基金仍持续净流入。

由于第二季度收益和综合收益总额的增加，CoinShares董事会投票修改了一项政策，允许股东获得特别股息，以表彰他们对业务的长期信任。

CoinShares首席执行官Jean-Marie Mognetti表示：

“我们强劲的财务业绩使我们能够实施新的股息政策，每季度为股东带来有形价值。在处置我们的FTX索赔后，最近的特别股息进一步突显了我们对这一目标的承诺。同时，我们正在通过在美国扩张和加强我们的欧洲分销来推动增长。”

加密货币价格影响第一季度收益

在第二季度的可观利润中，CoinShares也出现了一些亏损。加密货币价格的下跌抵消了该公司第一季度主要投资的一些收益，使今年迄今的收益降至180万英镑（229万美元）。

此外，在瑞士金融市场监管局宣布其破产后，CoinShares减记了对新银行FlowBank的投资。该公司决定完全减持其在该银行的股份，导致损失2180万英镑（2760万美元）。

Bitcoin Must Hold $60K Or Risk Major Breakdown, TradingView Analyst Warns

Bitcoin has reached a critical juncture around the $60,000 level, which analysts view as a major technical and psychological support zone. According to a TradingView analysis, a successful hold above this demand area could pave the way for a recovery toward $81,000. However, the warning is clear: a decisive and sustained break below $60,000 would invalidate the bullish outlook, likely triggering stop losses and a deeper market correction. The current setup is described as a binary test—maintaining support keeps the recovery narrative alive, while losing it would signal a shift toward a more significant downturn.

Venus Protocol Integrates Tokenized Stocks As Lending Collateral On BNB Chain

Venus Protocol now allows tokenized stocks from companies like Apple, Tesla, and Microsoft to be used as borrowing collateral on BNB Chain. This integration brings a key real-world asset (RWA) use case into DeFi lending. Users can deposit these tokenized equities, which are described as 1:1 backed by real shares held by regulated custodians, into isolated pools to borrow stablecoins or BNB without selling their underlying positions. This move expands DeFi lending beyond crypto-native assets, resembling traditional margin finance. It highlights BNB Chain's competition for RWA activity and aims to attract more stable liquidity. However, tokenized stocks introduce different risks, including dependency on off-chain custodians and challenges with collateral valuation due to differing market hours between traditional and on-chain trading. While not an immediate price catalyst, this development is significant within broader crypto trends like compliance pressure and RWA tokenization. Success will depend on growing liquidity, reliable custody, robust price oracles, and clear rules for redemptions and liquidations.

The Impossible Trilemma Is Basically a Pseudo-Problem

The article argues that the core limitation of blockchain technology is not the scalability trilemma, but its fundamental lack of privacy, which acts as a barrier to institutional capital. It defines blockchain as a slow, expensive, shared computer whose primary value is "permissionlessness" (no administrator) and verifiable trust. While this is ideal for native financial assets like stable币, which now process trillions, two critical flaws remain for mainstream adoption: regulatory legitimacy and a default transparency that leaks all financial activity. The author contends that transparency is not a feature but a tax, quantified through MEV extraction, making the public ledger unusable for serious institutions. However, modern cryptography, specifically zero-knowledge proofs, now offers a solution: "provable privacy." This allows users to prove compliance (e.g., solvency, KYC) without revealing underlying data. This fusion of privacy and auditability resolves the transparency-compliant privacy-compliance dichotomy, enabling a purely upgraded system where transactions are verified but not broadcasted. Closing these flaws is presented as the essential bridge to onboard the next wave of trillions in capital.

The "Impossible Triad" Is Fundamentally a Pseudo-Problem

The article argues that blockchain's fundamental limitation is not the scalability trilemma (decentralization, scalability, security), which has been largely solved, but the lack of **privacy** and, until recently, clear **legitimacy**. Blockchain is described as a slow, expensive, globally shared computer whose core value is censorship resistance and verifiability. While ideal for native digital assets like money (e.g., stablecoins), its default transparency acts as a **tax**, exposing all transactions and enabling MEV extraction, which deters serious institutional capital. Simultaneously, its permissionless nature created regulatory ambiguity. The piece contends that **privacy** is the missing critical feature. It rejects the false choice between total transparency and complete anonymity. Modern cryptography (like zero-knowledge proofs) enables **compliant privacy**: users can prove facts (solvency, KYC status, compliance) without revealing the underlying sensitive data (specific holdings, identities). This preserves auditability for regulators and eliminates the leak of financial information. With recent regulatory progress (e.g., the GENIUS Act) addressing legitimacy, adding default, provably compliant privacy becomes a pure upgrade. It transforms blockchain from a costly, public ledger into a confidential settlement layer, finally bridging the gap to mainstream institutional and individual adoption of on-chain finance.

Optical Chips: Collective Capacity Expansion

The global optical chip industry is experiencing a massive wave of expansion driven by surging AI data center demand. Major players across the US, Japan, Europe, and China are aggressively investing to ramp up production capacity. In the US, Coherent is expanding its 6-inch Indium Phosphide (InP) semiconductor fab in Texas, supported by CHIPS Act funding and a $2 billion strategic investment from NVIDIA. Lumentum is building a new factory for InP optical devices, and Nokia is scaling its advanced photonic chip packaging and testing capabilities. NVIDIA's investments aim to secure future supply of critical lasers and optical interconnect products for AI infrastructure. Japan's JX Advanced Metals, a leading InP substrate supplier, plans a multi-billion yen investment to increase its capacity 7-10 times, strengthening its grip on the crucial upstream materials market. In Europe, IQE and Tower Semiconductor settled a patent dispute and signed a multi-year InP epitaxial wafer supply agreement, highlighting that next-generation silicon photonics platforms will integrate high-performance InP components. STMicroelectronics and Sivers Semiconductors are also expanding silicon photonics production and partnerships. China is rapidly building out its domestic supply chain. Dongshan Precision's subsidiary, Source Photonics, announced a $12 billion project to expand optical chip and module production. Companies like Sanan Optoelectronics and Yunnan Germanium are scaling up InP chip manufacturing and substrate production, moving towards vertical integration from materials to modules. While debate continues around the exact future architecture—whether CPO (Co-Packaged Optics), NPO, or pluggables will dominate—analysts like Morgan Stanley argue the underlying driver is unchangeable: the explosive growth in bandwidth demand. This will inevitably increase the volume of optical engines, lasers, and related content per GPU, regardless of the final technical path. The competition for "more light" in the AI era has intensified into a global, full-chain capacity race.
