Crypto.com, Gemini и ряд других компаний выступили против предложения CFTC запретить политические ставки.
Согласно заявлению, Комиссия не должна превышать полномочия и поддаваться общественному давлению.
Под ограничения CFTC также могут попасть ставки, связанные с терроризмом и военными конфликтами.

Ряд лидеров криптоиндустрии, среди которых криптобиржи Gemini и Crypto.com, раскритиковали инициативу по запрету ставок на политические события в криптовалюте. Напомним, с таким предложением ранее выступила Комиссия по торговле товарными фьючерсами (CFTC) при содействии сенатора Элизабет Уоррен и других демократов.

«По мере приближения выборов в США избиратели уже сталкиваются с политической системой, позволяющей состоятельным людям и корпорациям вкладывать средства в избирательные кампании без раскрытия информации. Последнее, что нужно жителям страны, идущим на избирательные участки — ставки на исход выборов», — говорится в письме законодателей.

Как отметили в Coinbase, упомянутые ограничения негативно скажутся на всем рынке ставок. Под удар попадет целый сектор, а запрет затронет темы, которые никак не связаны с политикой, считают в компании.

После комментария Coinbase соучредитель Gemini Кэмерон Уинклвосс призвал CFTC пересмотреть свое решение:

Decentralized prediction markets are a significant innovation with real public utility. They provide valuable information on future events that is rooted in financial accountability. Unlike polls, pundits, or expert opinions, they require participants to put their money where… pic.twitter.com/Il9tiEyQqW

«Комиссия не должна поддаваться общественному давлению. Ей следует проигнорировать аргументы Уоррен, поскольку они непонятны, политически мотивированы и не служат интересам американского народа», — написал соучредитель Gemini.

В дополнение к этому старший вице-президент Crypto.com Стив Хьюменик подчеркнул, что CFTC не должна превышать своих полномочий.

Среди других лидеров мнений, выступивших против инициативы Элизабет Уоррен и CFTC, компания Robinhood и юристы фонда Dragonfly Capital Джессика Ферр и Брайан Эдельман. Последние указали на то, что Комиссия не является регулятором азартных игр, а значит, не может оказывать влияние на этот сектор.

Напомним, CFTC начала готовить правовую базу для запрета ставок на политические события в мае 2024 года. Предположительно, под ограничения также могут попасть темы, связанные с войной, убийствами и терроризмом.

Ранее соучредитель Gemini Тайлер Винклвосс призвал определиться с кандидатурой нового руководителя SEC еще до президентских выборов в США.

Behind ANSEM's 300% Weekly Surge: The Recovery and Traps of Solana Meme Coins

The meme coin ANSEM surged nearly 299% in a week, driving a resurgence in Solana-based meme token activity. Data from DeFiLlama shows Pump.fun's weekly DEX volume reached $5.33 billion, with July 4th marking the platform's first $1 billion daily volume since April. This revival saw a spike in new token launches and heightened trading activity, with memes again accounting for over 20% of Solana's weekly transaction volume. However, industry reports highlight significant risks. The average meme coin holding time has plummeted to around 100 seconds, and sophisticated bots often front-run retail investors, acquiring large portions of supply at launch before dumping. Research analyzing thousands of projects indicates widespread market manipulation, with a majority of top-gaining tokens showing signs of wash trading and pool manipulation. While meme coins effectively attract new users and generate hype for the Solana ecosystem, the current rally raises the critical question of whether this cycle can break free from the established pattern where late-arriving retail traders become exit liquidity for early bots and coordinated groups. The market's future trajectory hinges on whether the momentum can be sustained or if it will fade, leading traders back to major assets like SOL.

Zuckerberg's 'Mango' Image Generation Model Trails Only GPT Image 2, It Learned to Revise Prompts on Its Own

Meta's MSL has launched Muse Image, an advanced image generation model nicknamed "Mango," which ranks second globally in text-to-image benchmarks, closely trailing OpenAI's GPT Image 2. Its key innovation is agent-like behavior: it searches for factual information, writes code for charts, and, most notably, has developed self-correction abilities through reinforcement learning, allowing it to revise its own outputs without explicit programming. This shift emphasizes reasoning over immediate generation. Integrated with Meta's ecosystem, Mango connects with the Muse Spark language model for complex tasks and features a unique "@" function that can incorporate public Instagram photos into generated images—raising privacy concerns as it's enabled by default. The model is directly accessible in Meta AI, Instagram, and WhatsApp, leveraging Meta's vast user base for distribution rather than competing solely on image quality. Accompanying Mango is the preview of Muse Video, a video generation model with integrated audio, currently ranked third in its category. All Mango-generated images include an invisible, persistent watermark (Content Seal) for AI identification, alongside a public detection tool. While Mango advances "thinking" image models, its use of social data poses new ethical questions about consent and digital boundaries.

Weng Li's New Blog Proposes 'Self-Evolution Should Start from Harness', DeepSeek's Cui Tianyi Endorses with Repost

Lilian Weng, former OpenAI security VP and co-founder of Thinking Machines Lab, has published a new blog post titled "Harness Engineering for Self-Improvement," proposing a pragmatic path for AI self-evolution. She argues that Recursive Self-Improvement (RSI) may practically begin at the "Harness" layer—the external runtime system governing how models use tools, manage context, and execute tasks—rather than directly from the model rewriting its own weights. The blog outlines a progression from optimizing prompts (Context Engineering) to designing workflows, and ultimately to Self-Improving Harness systems. These systems can identify their own weaknesses, propose targeted, verifiable modifications to the harness code, and validate improvements. Works like Self-Harness and Darwin Gödel Machine (DGM) demonstrate significant performance gains on benchmarks like SWE-bench through such automated harness evolution, rivaling handcrafted agents. DeepSeek researcher Tianyi Cui endorsed the view, noting harness-based self-evolution is as promising as model-based approaches. Weng emphasizes this is complementary to model training, with both reinforcing each other. However, key challenges remain: weak evaluators for subjective tasks, reward hacking, diversity collapse, managing long-term system health versus short-term success, and defining the human oversight role. The consensus is growing: the harness is a critical variable, as the same model can exhibit vastly different capabilities within different harness systems.

Russia Advances Crypto Bill After Removing Wallet Address Disclosure Requirement

Russia's State Duma Financial Markets Committee has adopted a revised cryptocurrency regulation bill. A key change removes the controversial requirement for users to disclose their wallet addresses. Instead, the new bill mandates reporting of wallet balances and transaction volumes. The legislation aims to expand investment opportunities, allowing retail investors to allocate up to 300,000 rubles annually into approved cryptocurrencies through intermediaries. It also permits licensed brokers to access select foreign exchanges. However, the bill imposes restrictions, including limits on certain international crypto transfers and a continued ban on domestic crypto payments except for foreign trade. Furthermore, cryptocurrencies will be legally recognized as property in cases like insolvency. The Bank of Russia retains its role in licensing market participants and is advancing its digital ruble project.

Odaily Editorial Department Tea Party (July 8)

Odaily Editorial Team Casual Chat (July 8) This is an informal column from Odaily's editorial team, sharing immediate thoughts on industry news, data, and hot topics from various angles. It presents investment ideas and opportunity hypotheses still under verification—which may not be direct wealth codes but questions in themselves—alongside observations from industry interactions and materials that genuinely enhance the team's understanding. The content is based on real investment and observation experiences, carries no advertising, and does not constitute investment advice. Its purpose is to broaden perspectives and supplement information sources, not to create consensus. Team Member Shares: * **Wenser (@wenser2010):** Noted a deeper correction (nearly 30%) in US and Korean stocks, including memory stocks, but remains bullish on DRAM due to perceived supply shortages. In prediction markets, personal small bets outperformed blind copying; favors France to win the World Cup. Views crypto-related stocks like STRK as bearish for now, while seeing Circle and Coinbase as potential rebound plays. Observes recent strength in software stocks like Microsoft but is unsure if it's a sustained recovery. * **Bcxiongdi (@bcxiongdi):** Discusses the recent "recovery training" in meme coin markets on Solana and BSC, characterized by small-scale PVP opportunities, admitting to having sold many assets too early. Suggests also watching the Robinhood chain. Found World Cup prediction markets challenging, advising to consider buying during matches rather than only before. * **Azuma (@azuma_eth):** Focuses on the US stock market, particularly the significant semiconductor correction. Believes demand fundamentals remain and considers buying the dip in DRAM stocks. Notes a potential rotation signal as hedge funds have recently concentrated buying in tech stocks. Plans to continue adding to RKLB (Rocket Lab) stock, seeing limited downside and high upside potential at current levels after its founder's share sale window closed.
