  • 台湾金融监督管理委员会(FSC)将要求虚拟资产服务提供商(VASP)完成反洗钱(AML)合规登记,否则将面临刑事处罚。
  • 根据FSC的规定,该法规将于2025年1月1日生效,VASP必须在2025年9月之前完成相关登记。

台湾的金融监管机构——金融监督管理委员会(FSC)在7月份法律修订后,草拟了新的反洗钱法规。这些法规要求加密货币公司在明年9月底之前完成登记。若不合规,可能会导致处罚,包括最高两年的监禁。

金融监督管理委员会(FSC)周三在声明中表示,已起草了相关法规,明确针对虚拟资产服务提供商(VASP),并要求其完成反洗钱(AML)登记。

台湾目前要求虚拟资产服务提供商(VASP)遵守2021年7月FSC引入的反洗钱(AML)法规,而这些法规将很快被新规取代。FSC在周一的声明中明确指出,无论提供商是否已经完成现有的合规申报,“所有提供商都必须遵守新的VASP登记规定,并完成登记流程。”

根据当地媒体援引金融监督管理委员会(FSC)的报道,新法规将于2025年1月1日生效,虚拟资产服务提供商(VASP)需在9月底前完成反洗钱(AML)登记。否则,他们可能面临最高两年的监禁及最高新台币500万元(约15.59万美元)的罚款。

加密货币律师、台湾金融科技协会秘书长Kevin Cheng在接受The Block采访时表示,随着新规的实施,不合规的运营商将承担刑事责任,而合规的运营商将面临更严格的监管义务。Cheng指出:“整个行业环境将逐渐向持牌金融机构的模式发展。”

据Cheng所述,除传统的反洗钱(AML)义务外,新法规还要求管理团队具备相应资格,并纳入了交易安全、消费者资产保护及信息安全等企业责任。

Cheng补充道:“对于行业参与者而言,这些规则设立了更高的准入门槛和持续运营要求。新法规为台湾加密行业的发展提供了更强的法律保障,使其对习惯于传统金融的大型投资者而言更具吸引力。”

与此同时,金融监督管理委员会(FSC)正在考虑一项针对加密资产的特别法律提案,并计划于明年6月提交给台湾最高行政机关——行政院。根据当地媒体报道,FSC计划在今年年底前完成该提案的草案。

今年6月,台湾加密行业成立了一个行业协会,以在政府指导下制定自律规则。

Deconstructing Mysterious Researcher Serenity's Chokepoint Algorithm and the Global Revaluation of Equity Assets

Unmasking Serenity's "Chokepoint Theory": A Framework for AI-Era Investment This article deconstructs the investment methodology of the pseudonymous online researcher Serenity (formerly AleaBito on Reddit), who claims extraordinary returns by identifying critical bottlenecks in AI and robotics supply chains. Rejecting Wall Street's typical top-down analysis, Serenity employs a bottom-up, reverse-engineering approach. Starting with an end product like an Nvidia GPU cluster, he meticulously maps the global supply chain down to its most essential, irreplaceable physical components—the "choke points." These are low-profile, often monopolized sub-sectors where a disruption could paralyze entire downstream industries, analogous to a strategic strait controlling global oil flow. His primary focus is the physical evolution of AI data centers, specifically the shift from copper interconnects to silicon photonics and Co-Packaged Optics (CPO). He identifies five critical, monopolized technical barriers within CPO: high-precision fiber alignment components (e.g., FOCI), external light sources and high-power lasers (e.g., SIVE), molecular beam epitaxy equipment (ALRIB/Riber), ultra-high-purity red phosphorus raw materials, and Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) wafers (Soitec). Serenity extends this framework to humanoid robotics, arguing that while the AI "brain" resides in the US, the physical "body" hardware (actuators, gears, motors) is dominated by Asian manufacturers. He highlights a looming "demand tsunami" for specific rare earth elements essential for robot motors, presenting a severe future supply chain and geopolitical challenge. The article cites several of his investment targets (RPI, SIVE, Soitec, VLN, NBIS) where identifying such choke points, coupled with correcting market mispricings (e.g., ticker code confusion for VLN), allegedly led to significant re-ratings. Ultimately, the article posits that Serenity's core value is not in providing stock picks, but in demonstrating a paradigm: using deep technical analysis to find the silent, indispensable "physical switches" within complex systems, thereby exploiting institutional research blind spots. However, it warns of major risks, including illiquidity in micro-cap stocks, potential "pump-and-dump" accusations, and the foundational gamble that his identified technological paths (like CPO) are the correct and inevitable ones.

Cross-strait Regulators Jointly Block Hong Kong Stock Account Openings: Where Can Your Money Go Now?

**Summary:** On May 22, 2026, financial regulators in mainland China and Hong Kong launched a synchronized crackdown targeting informal channels used by mainland investors to trade in Hong Kong and US stocks via Hong Kong-based securities firms. The Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) issued a stringent circular to licensed brokers, mandating stricter onboarding procedures for mainland clients. New requirements include a mandatory written declaration stating that all investment funds originate from *outside* mainland China and are from legal sources. The SFC also demanded the closure of accounts opened with suspicious documents and dormant accounts. Simultaneously, China's securities regulator, along with seven other ministries, initiated a two-year rectification plan, penalizing firms like Futu and Tiger Brokers for illegal cross-border operations. This effectively ends the previously common grey-area practice for mainlanders. Immediate impacts are evident. Social media reports show mainland investors traveling to Hong Kong for in-person account openings are now frequently denied after signing the new declaration, even at firms like uSMART that still accept applications. The declaration acts as both a compliance shield for brokers and a filter for clients. While major internet brokers have halted new mainland accounts, limited options remain. A few Hong Kong-licensed firms like uSMART, Fosun Wealth, and Cheerful still offer avenues, but approval is not guaranteed and hinges on proving offshore fund sources. Crucially, funding accounts must now be in the investor's own name at qualified Hong Kong or international banks, blocking previous informal methods like third-party transfers. For compliant access, official channels like Stock Connect, QDII, and the Cross-boundary Wealth Management Connect remain open. Individuals with verifiable overseas residency or status have better prospects. The crackdown signals the definitive end of the loosely regulated expansion period, forcing mainland investors toward stricter, fully compliant pathways for overseas asset allocation.

Iran and the Fed -- Three Scenarios That Will Impact Global Markets Next

"Three Scenarios for Iran and the Fed Shaping Global Markets" Iranian geopolitics and the Fed's monetary policy path are two dominant themes for markets. Deutsche Bank Research outlines three scenarios linking Iran ceasefire outcomes to Fed policy, with oil prices as the key transmission channel. **Scenario 1: Peace Deal.** A breakthrough leading to the Strait of Hormuz reopening would ease near-term Fed tightening pressure. Recent inflation would be viewed as a temporary energy shock. However, medium-term risks remain; rate hikes could resurface in 2027 if inflation persists. **Scenario 2: Stalemate.** A breakdown in talks and a prolonged Strait closure, but no major escalation, is deemed the scenario with the *highest* Fed hike risk. Sustained high oil prices would feed into core inflation and threaten inflation expectations, while not severely damaging demand enough to give the Fed a reason to pause. This environment could necessitate multiple Fed rate hikes in 2026. **Scenario 3: Conflict Escalation.** Renewed conflict and sharply higher oil prices create a two-way risk for Fed policy. On one hand, it would risk severe inflation expectations de-anchoring, forcing a hawkish response. On the other, extreme oil prices could severely damage demand and the labor market, potentially shifting the Fed's focus toward easing. The ultimate policy decision would depend on which risk materializes first. Overall, Deutsche Bank's framework emphasizes that the path for oil prices, dictated by Iran, will define the nature of inflation pressures and ultimately determine the Fed's policy space. Key signals to watch include ceasefire progress, whether Brent crude stabilizes below $100, and any shift in Fed officials' rhetoric from discussing cuts to potential hikes.

Hash Global Founder: Why I Also Choose to Liquidate All My ETH Holdings?

Hash Global founder explains his decision to sell all ETH holdings, despite recognizing the potential regulatory clarity from the US CLARITY Act as a positive development. He argues against the narrative that such clarity would automatically grant ETH a "monetary premium" comparable to Bitcoin or gold. The core of his critique is that market valuation for ETH remains tied to fundamental network metrics—like mainnet revenue, DeFi activity, staking yield, and competition—rather than a pure store-of-value narrative. He contends that legal classification solves compliance issues for institutions but does not inherently create the deep, historical consensus required for monetary status. Furthermore, Ethereum's complexity and role as a multi-functional infrastructure asset (gas, collateral, settlement layer) work against the simple narrative needed for such a premium. Looking forward, he suggests that the rise of DeFi and tokenized real-world assets (RWA) will mean ETH is not the only yield-bearing asset; tokenized gold, treasuries, and others will also offer programmable yield. Thus, ETH's "yielding" advantage diminishes. He believes monetary premium will likely remain with Bitcoin, physical gold, and potentially tokenized gold, while ETH's value is more accurately framed as a crucial infrastructure asset. Ultimately, he views CLARITY's benefit as reducing a "regulatory discount" on ETH, not unlocking trillions in monetary re-rating. ETH's long-term value is significant but stems from its network effects, developer ecosystem, and role in on-chain finance—not from being a direct substitute for gold.

Elon Musk's 'Granny Drain'

Title: Musk "Milking the Old Folks" Author: Nancy, PANews As the memory sector surges with Micron and SK Hynix each surpassing a trillion-dollar market cap, Elon Musk is accelerating his own myth of becoming the world's first trillionaire. SpaceX, with its astronomical valuation, is speeding toward the capital markets. This potentially wealth-history-rewriting super IPO is pushing Musk toward that unprecedented personal fortune and delivering hundredfold or even thousandfold returns to early backers like Google, Valor Equity Partners, Founders Fund, and others. However, to sustain this most expensive space narrative in human history, new buyers are ultimately needed. As massive pension funds are set to be "forced to buy," the retirement savings of Americans are becoming the fuel for Musk's space dreams. Wall Street has begun paving a fast track for such super IPOs. Major indices like Nasdaq and S&P have recently eased rules, allowing mega-companies like SpaceX to be incorporated into key benchmarks like the Nasdaq 100 much faster post-listing. This matters because a vast portion of the U.S. retirement system—trillions in 401(k)s and pension funds—relies on passive index investing. Once a company enters a major index, all funds tracking it are compelled to buy its shares automatically, regardless of valuation, profitability, or risk. This has sparked significant backlash. Teacher unions and major public pension funds (collectively managing trillions) have warned the SEC and written to Musk, opposing SpaceX's extreme governance structure where Musk holds 85% voting control. They argue workers' lifelong savings could be tied to a company resembling a Musk family office more than a transparent public entity. In essence, after early investors reap immense rewards, the potential "bag-holding" cost is being transferred onto passive investors—the ordinary American retirees—through the mechanism of index inclusion.
