Sui Launches Gasless Stablecoin Transfers, Supported by Fireblocks

Sui has officially launched "Gasless Stablecoin Transfers," a new protocol-level feature enabling users and enterprises to send supported stablecoins on Sui without paying gas fees or needing a separate SUI token balance. As the feature rolls out, stablecoin transfer fees on Sui are now effectively $0. Major stablecoins like USDsui, suiUSDe, AUSD, FDUSD, USDB, USDC, and USDY are already supported. This aims to simplify payments and remove a key barrier to mass adoption: requiring users to hold another token for gas. The enterprise platform Fireblocks, securing over $14 trillion in digital asset transactions, has integrated the feature in advance, enhancing institutional accessibility. Other wallets and custodians are also set to support zero-gas transactions. Sui co-founder Adeniyi Abiodun stated this brings Sui closer to being a global payment rail. Fireblocks' Ran Goldi noted it removes a major friction point for businesses building on-chain payments. This is a permanent structural change to Sui's mainnet, not a subsidy. It positions Sui as low-cost infrastructure for enterprises, traders, and AI agents. Sui's stablecoin transfer volume has surpassed $1 trillion since August 2025, with its architecture supporting high-frequency payments. Recent growth includes three SUI Exchange-Traded Products (ETPs) launching in 2026 and the expansion of major stablecoin projects like USDsui and SuiUSDe on the network. Zero-gas stablecoin transfers are now being gradually deployed on the Sui mainnet.

Sui Launches Gasless Stablecoin Transfers With Support From Fireblocks

Sui has launched a protocol-level feature enabling gasless stablecoin transfers on its network. This allows users and businesses to send supported stablecoins like USDsui, suiUSDe, and USDC without paying gas fees or needing to hold SUI tokens, effectively reducing transfer fees to $0.00. Supported by Fireblocks, this initiative aims to remove a major friction point for mass stablecoin adoption by simplifying payment workflows. Sui leadership highlights this as a step toward making the network a global payments rail for businesses, consumers, and AI agents. The feature is a permanent structural change, not a temporary promotion, and builds on Sui's rapidly growing stablecoin ecosystem, which has surpassed $1 trillion in transfer volume.

KalqiX Just Made Self-Custody a Mass Market Feature for Mainstream & Traditional Traders

For years, self-custody in Web3 has been hampered by trade-offs, forcing users to choose between security/convenience and performance. KalqiX aims to change this with its new Central Limit Orderbook (CLOB) DEX. It combines CEX-level speed and execution quality with true self-custody. The key innovation is processing and matching orders off-chain for performance, while using on-chain zero-knowledge proofs for secure, trustless settlement. This eliminates the need for users to surrender asset control, protecting them from custodial risks like those seen in the FTX collapse. KalqiX's launch represents a potential breakthrough, offering a long-missing solution that could make self-custody a viable, mainstream standard for all traders.

KUN and Pharos Network Forge Strategic Partnership to Jointly Drive Innovation in RealFi, RWA, and Cross-Border Payment Infrastructure

Hong Kong. Layer 1 infrastructure Pharos Network and licensed digital payment expert KUN have signed a strategic MoU. They will integrate Pharos's institutional blockchain with KUN's licensed global payment rails to drive the tokenization of supply chain credit assets and enable more efficient global settlement on-chain. **Background:** Emerging market SMEs face severe working capital challenges due to slow, costly traditional trade finance, often waiting 30-90 days for payment after delivery. While RWA tokenization is a focus, few projects effectively connect underlying infrastructure to real commerce and licensed payment networks. **Collaboration Focus:** The partnership aims to bridge this gap by bringing supply chain credit and B2B cross-border payments on-chain compliantly. Initial priorities include: * Tokenizing supply chain credit assets to unlock liquidity. * Enabling native on-chain settlement of digital assets. * Exploring enterprise virtual card solutions. * Providing compliant on-chain financial services for verticals like commodities, trade, B2B e-commerce, and Web3. **Executive Quotes:** * Wish Wu, Co-founder & CEO of Pharos Network, highlighted KUN's trusted, licensed payment network as a perfect fit for bringing supply chain assets and cross-border capital flows on-chain accessibly. * Dr. Louis Liu, Founder & CEO of KUN, stated that settlement certainty is RealFi's final hurdle. Bridging KUN's payment rails with Pharos's infrastructure will help convert on-chain assets into real-world liquidity with institutional-grade trust. They will also explore AI-driven optimization for global capital flows. Pharos mainnet is live with over 50 dApps. This partnership strengthens its position as RealFi infrastructure by linking licensed payment systems with on-chain finance.

Duan Yongping Makes First Investment in Crypto Company: Why Circle?

Duan Yongping, a renowned Chinese investor known as the "Chinese Buffett," has made his first investment in the cryptocurrency space through his family office, H&H International Investment LLC. According to a recent 13F filing, the firm acquired a position in stablecoin issuer Circle (CRCL), valued at approximately $19.08 million. While this amount represents only 0.2% of Duan's total portfolio, the move is symbolically significant. Historically cautious towards Web3 and crypto assets, Duan's investment philosophy aligns with traditional value investing principles—emphasizing understandable business models, strong moats, and stable cash flows. Most crypto projects have not met these criteria. Circle, however, stands apart. Its core business revolves around issuing the USDC stablecoin and generating interest income from its reserve assets, primarily U.S. Treasuries. This model resembles a money market fund or digital dollar bank, providing predictable revenue. Circle's Q1 2026 financials showed strong growth: revenue reached $694 million (up 20% year-on-year), with 94% from reserve interest, and adjusted EBITDA was $151 million (up 24%). USDC circulation grew 28% to $77 billion. Duan's investment signals a shift: stablecoin infrastructure like Circle's is becoming legible to traditional value investors. It represents a bridge between crypto and mainstream finance, underscored by Circle's recent $222 million pre-sale for its Arc layer-1 blockchain, backed by major firms like a16z and BlackRock. This move suggests that as regulatory clarity improves and business models mature, more crypto-native companies may gain acceptance from traditional capital.

Morse Code "Stole" $440,000 from Bankr, Undermining Trust in AI Agent Interactions Again

On May 20th, the AI agent platform Bankr reported an attack where 14 user wallets were compromised, resulting in losses exceeding $440,000. The incident, confirmed by security firm SlowMist, was a social engineering attack exploiting the trust layer between automated agents, similar to an attack on May 4th that stole $150k-$200k from a Grok-associated wallet. Bankr allows users and AI agents to manage wallets and execute transactions via instructions sent to @bankrbot on X. The platform monitors posts from specific agents like @grok, treating them as potential transaction commands, especially if the agent holds a "Bankr Club Membership" NFT which grants high-permission operations. The attacker exploited this design. First, they airdropped the required NFT to Grok's wallet. Then, they posted a Morse code message on X requesting a translation from Grok. The AI agent helpfully decoded and replied, but the decoded text contained a direct instruction to @bankrbot to transfer a large sum of DRB tokens to the attacker's address. Bankr's system, monitoring Grok's feed and verifying the NFT permissions, automatically signed and broadcast the transaction. The core issue is a flawed trust assumption: Bankr treated Grok's natural language output as authorized financial commands without verifying the intent. LLMs like Grok cannot distinguish between a genuine user request and a manipulated instruction. Using encoded messages like Morse code bypasses potential content filters, as the translation task itself appears harmless. This attack highlights a systemic vulnerability in platforms granting on-chain execution rights to AI agents. While Bankr has paused transactions and promised full reimbursement from its treasury, the incident underscores that defenses against "malicious-injection-via-LLM-output" were not part of the original security model. As AI agents gain financial agency, such trust-layer exploits represent a growing threat class.
