Duke law lecturer argues Trump-connected World Liberty Financial issued a security
Lee Reiners, who has criticized the SEC’s new token taxonomy and crypto guidance, thinks World Liberty’s so-called governance token is an unregistered security.

World Liberty’s claims of decentralization were challenged by Justin Sun’s recent lawsuit, filed after his tokens were allegedly frozen.

World Liberty Financial, the DeFi and stablecoin project closely associated with the Trump family, may have issued an unregistered security, according to Lee Reiners, a lecturing fellow at Duke University and former Federal Reserve Bank of New York examiner, in a blog on Friday. 

Citing the Security and Exchange Commission’s recent token taxonomy, Reiners notes that the WLFI is not a pure "digital commodity," and likely subject to SEC scrutiny. This is despite the World Liberty team’s claims that WLFI is a pure governance token. 

"WLFI is not a decentralized commodity. It is a Trump-branded governance token sold to finance a centrally controlled crypto business. If the SEC’s interpretation means anything, it should apply here," Reiners wrote.

The SEC is now led by Chairman Paul Atkins, who was nominated by President Donald Trump. 

Launched in October 2024, WLFI was marketed through the project’s "Gold Paper" as a pure voting token for the World Liberty lending protocol. The project explicitly stated WLFI did not hold claim to any project equity, dividends, or profit rights, positioning WLFI as a tool for decentralized governance.

However, World Liberty sold approximately 25 billion WLFI tokens, out of the total 100 billion supply, in several public presale rounds. Reiners argues that buyers likely invested capital with the reasonable expectation of profits, an essential component of the Howey Test used by the SEC to determine which assets are securities.

Trusted Editorial content, reviewed by leading industry experts and seasoned editors. Ad Disclosure Debates surrounding the XRP holdings of former Ripple Chief Technology Officer (CTO), David Schwartz, continue to emerge across the crypto market. New updates from an XRP researcher show just how many tokens Schwartz held and how much this would have been worth each year from 2012 to 2026 if he had never sold off his holdings.How Much Ripple's Ex-CTO's XRP Holding Could Have Been WorthA prominent crypto blockchain researcher, known as BankXRP, has released a new report on the value of the XRP stash once held by Schwartz. The findings detail how the value of the holdings could have grown over time before the former Ripple CTO sold his bags. Related Reading: Ripple Is A Silent Killer': How It's Using XRP To Solve Crypto's Biggest BottlenecksThe report reveals that Schwartz once held 26 million XRP tokens, which saw massive swings as the price changed each year. In 2012, XRP's value sat at $0.005, making his holdings worth $130,000 before the cryptocurrency hit $2.30 in 2017 during the bull market. At that time, the former Ripple executive's stash could have been valued at approximately $59.8 million. Following this, BankXRP said that Schwartz's portfolio value would have plummeted when the XRP price fell to $0.19 in 2019, and would have risen again as the cryptocurrency's value climbed back toward $1.00 in recent cycles. By 2024, after the massive rally, XRP's average price sat at $2.08. This means the estimated value of Schwartz's holdings would have been over $54 million.For 2025 and 2026, the latest figures show that XRP traded at average prices of $1.84 and $1.40, respectively. These market rates would have kept the value of the former CTO's total holdings between $36.4 million and $47.8 million during the last two years. Notably, BankXRP said that Schwartz chose

#HTX Community April Creation Contest Russia and Ukraine agree to three-day truce and prisoner exchange around Victory Day

Russia and Ukraine have agreed to a three-day ceasefire running from May 9 through May 11, 2026. The pause in fighting coincides with Russia’s Victory Day commemorations and includes a prisoner exchange involving 1,000 individuals swapped between the two nations.

US President Donald Trump mediated the agreement. Both Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed their acceptance.

How the truce came together

Ukraine proposed a ceasefire covering May 5-6. Russia countered with a window of May 8-9. Neither side appeared willing to adopt the other’s timeline.

What changed was Trump’s direct involvement as a mediator. Recent dialogues between US and Russian officials laid the groundwork, and the final agreement landed on a window that encompassed Victory Day, May 9, the date Russia commemorates the Soviet Union’s role in defeating Nazi Germany during World War II.

Threats had been exchanged over the possibility of attacks during Victory Day events, adding urgency to the negotiations.

Zelenskyy has emphasized his expectation that the United States will play an enforcement role, meaning Ukraine signed on with the understanding that Washington isn’t just brokering the deal but standing behind it.

A rare coordinated pause in four years of war

The Russia-Ukraine conflict has ground on since early 2022. The inclusion of a concrete prisoner exchange involving 1,000 people gives the truce a tangible, verifiable component.

The Trump administration’s role as mediator represents a shift in US posture. Previous American involvement in the conflict leaned heavily toward military and financial support for Ukraine.

What this means for markets and geopolitics

The Russia-Ukraine conflict has been one of the most persistent sources of volatility in commodities, particularly energy and grain markets, since it began.

XRP Ledger Activates Default-Enabled Amendment in Major Network Update

The XRP Ledger Foundation announced the official launch of rippled version 3.1.3.

The update includes a “default-yes” amendment, eliminating the need for manual voting processes.

Institutions such as JPMorgan and Mastercard recently completed a cross-border Treasury bond redemption in less than five seconds.

The XRP Ledger Foundation confirmed this Friday that version 3.1.3 of its core software is ready, designed to strengthen the operability of the XRP Ledger network. This update is presented as a critical technical measure for node operators and validators within the ecosystem.

While other updates require prolonged consensus, version 3.1.3 integrates a fix amendment that is activated by default. The foundation reported that this mechanism allows the improvement to be implemented automatically following the software update by network participants.

In particular, no manual voting is required for this amendment, according to the developers. However, infrastructure operators have been invited to migrate to the new version as quickly as possible. They seek to prevent servers from becoming “amendment blocked,” a situation that occurs when a node does not recognize the protocol’s updated rules.

Cardano Ranks as Second-Largest Blockchain by Validation Count
Notably, popular Cardano community figure Mintern shared data from Token Terminal showing that Cardano currently operates with approximately 2,900 validators securing the network. This places the blockchain behind only Ethereum, which leads the sector with 895,200 validators.

Although Ethereum maintains a massive lead, Cardano still surpasses several major Layer-1 networks in validator participation. These include Algorand (1,600 validators), Solana (775), Polkadot (600), and Near Protocol (472).Cardano ranks as the second-biggest blockchain by validator count
What This Means for Cardano
The ranking highlights Cardano’s growing decentralization and the increasing number of participants helping secure the network. In proof-of-stake systems, validators play a central role in confirming transactions, maintaining consensus, and protecting the integrity of the blockchain.

Moreover, a higher validator count often signals stronger decentralization because network control is distributed across a broader group of independent participants rather than remaining concentrated among a few entities.

Everstake Says Validator Growth Could Drive Next Web3 Adoption
Reacting to the milestone, Everstake defended Cardano against criticism that the network is slow, arguing that its validator growth demonstrates the network’s decentralized structure.

The staking provider described Cardano’s validator ecosystem as enormous, emphasizing that building a blockchain supported by nearly 3,000 validators requires significant dedication from participants in the ecosystem.

Furthermore, Everstake stressed that this level of distributed participation represents the type of decentralized infrastructure needed to drive the next wave of Web3 adoption.

Bitcoin rally cools as April jobs fails to break macro ceiling with Iran tensions and ETF outflows in play

Spot bitcoin and ETH ETFs both flipped to net outflows Thursday, ending a five-day inflow streak as Iran ceasefire doubts resurfaced and BTC pulled back below $80,000.

April nonfarm payrolls came in at 115,000, nearly double, supporting a near-term risk-on read without resolving the macro ceiling driven by persistent energy inflation.

Bitcoin traded under $80,000 Friday after a five-day spot ETF inflow streak that anchored its recovery from February lows snapped, with signs of little retail participation amid macro uncertainty and global conflicts.

April's closely watched Employment Situation report surpassed expectations, with job creation remaining solid. Although it helped to clarify the macro picture, it did little to resolve other headline risks bearing down on price.

Institutions Are Back. They Are Just Not Back for Everything

The MorenoDV report identifies the relationship between fund positioning and price behavior as more than coincidental. In both Bitcoin and Ethereum, price recovery has closely tracked the direction of fund holdings — as institutional positions stabilized and began expanding, prices gradually recovered from their post-crash lows. The sequencing suggests that institutional positioning is not simply reacting to price movements after the fact. It appears to be actively participating in shaping the market structure that determines where prices go.

That observation makes the divergence between Bitcoin and Ethereum considerably more significant. Bitcoin regained institutional confidence relatively quickly — fund holdings expanded by 92,000 BTC while the price rebuilt from its lows. Ethereum has not seen the same dynamic. Fund holdings declined even as the broader market recovered, reflecting a hesitation that the price action has mirrored.

The report’s explanation for that hesitation is structural rather than speculative. Bitcoin has consolidated its identity as the macro reserve asset of the crypto ecosystem — the deepest liquidity, the most developed ETF infrastructure, and the cleanest institutional framework for allocation. Ethereum occupies a different position in the institutional risk hierarchy. During periods of uncertainty, funds have shown a consistent tendency to reduce ETH exposure first while maintaining or rebuilding Bitcoin positions as the comparatively safer allocation.

Hyperliquid 价格预测：HYPE 代币价格能否达到 50 美元？

$HYPE 代币价格上涨主要得益于强劲的盈利和不断增长的协议收入。

HIP-3 的增长使 Hyperliquid 的未平仓合约量增至约 14.3 亿美元。

如果 43.5 美元附近的支撑位能够守住，Hyperliquid 的价格有望达到 45-50 美元。

Hyperliquid ($HYPE) 目前交易价格约为 42.78 美元，过去 24 小时内上涨约 1.6%，并在 42.06 美元至 43.06 美元的窄幅日内波动区间内保持韧性。

过去一周，$HYPE 的价格波动幅度略有扩大，在 40.75 美元至 44.65 美元之间波动，呈现出渐进式上涨而非剧烈波动的趋势。

此次上涨主要得益于生态系统的增长、机构参与度的提高以及平台衍生品交易活动的稳步增长。

 盈利驱动的上涨势头和生态系统扩张

$HYPE 的价格上涨与 Hyperliquid Strategies Inc. 的强劲业绩密切相关，该公司是该代币的最大持有者之一。

该公司公布的第一季度净利润约为 1.525 亿美元，主要得益于其 $HYPE 持仓带来的收益。

然而，Hyperliquid Strategies 在过去九个月中录得 1.65 亿美元的净亏损，主要原因是未实现的估值波动和税务调整。
