OCBC has rolled out a tokenized physical gold fund, bringing real-world asset exposure on-chain for institutional investors. Summary OCBC launched the GOLDX token on Ethereum and Solana, offering institutional investors access to a tokenized physical gold fund. The token provides exposure to the LionGlobal Singapore Physical Gold Fund, which held about $525 million in assets as of mid-April. The move comes as tokenized real-world assets on public blockchains cross $29 billion, with major banks expanding into blockchain-based financial products. OCBC said the product was launched in partnership with Lion Global Investors and digital asset exchange DigiFT, with the GOLDX token issued on both the Ethereum and Solana blockchains. The bank stated that the token can be subscribed to using either fiat or stablecoins, with allocations delivered directly to investors’ blockchain wallets after purchase. Institutional participation remains the core focus, with the offering designed for hedge funds, asset managers, and other large investors seeking exposure to gold through blockchain-based infrastructure. The move places OCBC among a growing list of global banks that are moving regulated financial products on-chain.

US Senator Pushes to Move CLARITY Act Markup to May Amid Stablecoin Yield Dispute

Tillis, who has been leading negotiations between both sides, told reporters Monday that he does not expect a markup in April.

U.S. Senator Thom Tillis of North Carolina has urged Senate Banking Committee Chair Tim Scott to postpone the markup of the CLARITY Act to May, citing unresolved disagreements between the crypto and banking industries over stablecoin yield provisions.

Tillis, who has been leading negotiations between both sides, told reporters Monday that he does not expect a markup in April. According to Punchbowl News, he told Scott: "It's very important to me not to accelerate things, to hear everybody, and give them a rational basis for what we do accept."

Donald Trump and GOP amass $1.2B war chest fueled by crypto donors

New federal filings reveal that Trump and the GOP have amassed a historic $1.2 billion cash stockpile. Crypto executives have played a major role in funding the Republican war chest for the November midterms.

Professor Jayati Ghosh of the University of Massachusetts Amherst has warned that the Trump administration is pursuing a “self-destructive” strategy that weakens the U.S. dollar.

Is crypto deregulation helping America’s enemies?

Professor Jayati Ghosh of the University of Massachusetts Amherst, writing in the Bangkok Post, explains that the Trump administration’s push to deregulate crypto markets, paired with the promotion of dollar-pegged “stablecoins” via the GENIUS Act, has created a financial system that hostile nations are exploiting.

In 2025 alone, illegal cryptocurrency transactions surged by more than 160%, largely driven by U.S. rivals. Iran, for example, has integrated crypto into the Strait of Hormuz. Shipping companies are reportedly charged $1 per barrel of oil payable in Bitcoin or the USDT stablecoin for safe passage.

On a single day this month, this reportedly generated an estimated $36 million for the Iranian regime.

Russia, after having central bank assets frozen, legalized crypto mining and used exchanges to procure military drones and re-export sensitive goods. The country is also launching a “digital ruble” to further bypass the U.S.-led financial order.

Alongside Russia and Iran, North Korea is also a major beneficiary of the opacity of crypto markets, utilizing the same channels to fund weapons programs.

Claim1,200 USDT in the Monthly Creation Challenge

The government has noted the outflow of money and companies going to the UAE and thinks the time is right to try to win them back.

The invitation coincides with UK Fintech Week and a Treasury plan to revamp payment systems with stablecoin and the spread of tokenization.

Economic development officials with links to the U.K. government invited Bybit leadership to London this week in what appears to be a bid to emulate the momentum of Dubai, where the cryptocurrency exchange is based, and the rest of the United Arab Emirates.

CEO Ben Zhou said the message from the U.K. is “they are very eager to invite big business to establish bases and create jobs,” and discuss forthcoming pro-crypto regulation.
