Hong Kong jails former banker over $1.6B false credit, cryptocurrency bribes: Report

Hong Kong’s anti-graft agency, the ICAC, has obtained warrants for the arrest of others involved in the case, the report said. The judge said that banking and insurance are the backbone of Hong Kong’s economy, and Lam’s scheme had served to undermine its standing as a global financial hub. Cointelegraph reported in July that the Hong Kong Monetary Authority had launched a framework to assess banks’ preparedness for quantum-computing threats as the city expands its use of tokenized deposits, digital assets and blockchain settlement.

Solana's Heartbeat Quickens: Block Times Fall 17% in Latest Speed Upgrade

In brief
- Solana's target slot time—the window a validator gets to produce a block—dropped from 300 milliseconds to 250 on Friday, the network's third speed cut since August. - The change makes blocks arrive nearly 17% faster but doesn't raise how many transactions the network can process, since each shorter slot now carries proportionally less computation. - A further cut to 200 milliseconds has no mainnet date and will only proceed if block-skip rates—how often a validator misses its turn—stay in check.
