SEC acknowledges Fidelity, VanEck, WisdomTree, and Invesco Spot Bitcoin ETF applications 🟢

➡️ On July 14, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) acknowledged the spot Bitcoin ETF applications submitted by Fidelity, VanEck, WisdomTree, and Invesco.

👀 This acknowledgment, published on the SEC's website, represents a significant milestone in the cryptocurrency industry's pursuit of spot Bitcoin Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) approval.

⚡️ Furthermore, similar acknowledgments were reported today for BlackRock, while companies like ARK Investment and BitWise had received acknowledgments from the regulator before that.

➡️ It's important to understand that this acknowledgment only guarantees the immediate approval or rejection of the applications.

Binance's New Platform in Japan to Provide Full Services from August 🔔

➡️ Binance revealed that it is finally ready to roll out its full services on its recently-launched subsidiary platform in Japan. The confirmation came from the exchange’s founder, Changpeng Zhao, during a conference in Tokyo earlier today, which he attended via video.

➡️ Zhao said that the services will become available in full starting in August 2023. In late May 2023, Binance announced a new platform in Japan.The platform was compliant with the local regulations and designed to provide services to Japanese users.

🟢 However, the exchange also said that it would take some time before it can launch its full services in the country. The company was able to enter the Japanese market thanks to its purchase of Sakura Exchange BitCoin in November 2022.

🔴 Acquisitions such as this one have been a common practice for companies to enter new markets. Sakura Exchange BitCoin provided Binance with an entry point into the market, and the exchange took it.

US Senate Passes National Defense Bill: Here’s How It Affects Crypto 🟢

🟥 The bill's implication on the industry is far-reaching as it affects privacy coins, crypto mixers, and several digital asset exchanges. The United States Senate has passed the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), a law that sets the agenda and funding standards for the Department of Defense.

🟢 The bill sets the federal government’s defense funding at $886 billion with a 5.2% pay rise for service members. While funding was a major issue, the law affects several industries including the digital asset ecosystem.

⚠️ Specifically, it targets crypto mixers alongside privacy coins that mask the identity of users making it difficult for authorities to trace blockchain transactions.

♾ The cryptocurrency amendment in the bill was pushed by several senators including Elizabeth Warren, Roger Marshall, Cynthia Lummis, and Kirsten Gillibrand as they try to reduce the prevalence of crypto-related fraud among users.

Crypto Exchange Binance Secures Operating License in Dubai ✔️

➡️ On Monday, Binance, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange, secured the Operational MVP License to operate in Dubai after fulfilling the necessary pre-conditions since obtaining a preparatory license in September 2022.

➡️ Last year, Binance FZE, the Dubai-based subsidiary of Binance, achieved a significant milestone by obtaining Dubai's Virtual Asset Regulatory Authority (VARA).

➡️ This regulatory approval enables Binance FZE to open a domestic bank account to hold clients' funds locally, operate a crypto exchange, and provide payment and custody services.

⚠️ However, with the recent progression to an Operational MVP License, eligible users in Dubai can now access authorized services, including safely converting virtual assets to fiat in compliance with VARA-designated standards set by the intergovernmental Financial Action Task Force.

🔔 Binance's recently obtained operating license in Dubai comes with certain limitations. The services provided are currently restricted to institutional and qualified retail investors in the region, as per Binance's announcement.

Coinbase Analysts Remain Positive Ahead of Q2 Earnings Despite Regulatory Uncertainties 📌

➡️ Crypto trading platform Coinbase is poised for better-than-expected, Q2 earnings despite ongoing legal pressure against the firm and other industry giants, analysts say.

🟢 Consensus estimates from the financial data company FactSet call for revenues to decline to $629 million, down from $773 million in the prior quarter. This is expected to come on the back of lower trading volume during that same period, projected at $114 million versus $145 million in Q1.

📣 Furthermore, earnings per share are expected to fall by $0.75, as opposed to $0.34 in the prior quarter. However, in a Tuesday note, British Bank Barclays wrote that it expects “adjusted EBITDA” (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization) to come in “well ahead of consensus.”

🟠 Last month, the bank’s analysts downgraded Coinbase’s stock to underweight, expecting various near-term pressures to start taking their toll on the company’s earnings. At the time, analysts wrote:

💬 “While we continue to believe Coinbase is a likely long-term winner in the broader crypto ecosystem, fundamentals remain challenged, and recent relief from price actions, increasing rates, and cost rationalization likely have little further to run.”

Crypto Exchange Coinbase Narrows Losses Thanks to Cost Reduction Strategy 👀

🟥 Major US-based crypto exchange Coinbase has reported a smaller loss in the second quarter this year compared to the same quarter last year, while its revenue exceeded analysts’ expectations.

➡️ Coinbase’s loss for the quarter came in at $97 million, down from $1.1 billion a year before, the firm’s financial report for the second quarter showed. The loss marked the sixth consecutive quarterly loss for the exchange, which is facing significant regulatory challenges in its home market.

➡️ Meanwhile, the report showed that revenue also declined on a year-over-year basis, coming in at $707.9 million, 12% lower than the same period last year.

📣 Still, the revenue was markedly stronger than a consensus estimate from analysts surveyed by Bloomberg of $631.2 million, which one analyst attributed to better-than-expected interest income and staking revenue.

💬 “Q2 was a strong quarter of execution for Coinbase and marked continued progress in our journey to build a company that is increasingly efficient and financially disciplined,” the firm wrote in a shareholder letter.

Binance Founder CZ Warns Users About the Use of AI Deepfakes in Crypto 🟥

➡️ Crypto exchange giant Binance's CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ) has flagged a warning regarding AI-enabled deepfake videos that pose significant risks to cryptos. Referring to an AI-powered video post featuring Joshua Xu, CEO of HeyGen, CZ said that such videos are “pretty scary from a video verification perspective.”

💬 “Don't send people coins even if they send you a video,” he wrote.

💬 The Tweet by Xu included 100% AI-generated videos of his own avatar and voice clone. “We've made massive enhancements to our life-style avatar's video quality and fine-tuned our voice technology to mimic my unique accent and speech patterns perfectly,” the post added.

📣 The HeyGen CEO noted that this feature will soon be deployed to production for everyone to try and that the AI video generator would take only “two minutes” to create a real-looking digital avatar.

➡️ According to the Binance website, users must submit video evidence to verify the identity of the customer to withdraw funds from the exchange. The know-your-customer (KYC) process mandates a video verification along with a picture of the user’s ID card or passport.

South Korean Police Arrest 312 in Crypto-powered Drug Trading Busts 👀

📌 South Korean police are stepping up their crackdown on crypto-powered drug trafficking, and have made 312 arrests in a wide-sweeping narcotics bust. The broadcaster KBS reported that the arrests were carried out by the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency’s Drug Crime Investigation.

🟢 The suspects were charged with violating the Narcotics Control Act. Police said the suspects were thought to have bought or sold drugs using dark web portals.

🟢 They are thought to have made use of “non-domestic” chat apps like Telegram, and conducted trades using cryptoassets such as Bitcoin (BTC). And police said that the group contained at least six alleged “large-scale” drug dealers.

➡️ This group included a man in his 20s who also ran an “internet shopping mall.” The suspected dealers are thought to have smuggled drugs into the country from overseas or bought from South Korean smugglers. Officers claimed the suspected dealers had been active from December 2020 to March 2023.

⚠️ The “internet shopping mall” operator, police think, appears to have been a key player, and allegedly expanded his operations from selling conventional goods to trading drugs on the dark web.
