⚡️🤑 Institutional-grade stablecoins just went multichain Ripple's RLUSD is now live across ecosystems via Wormhole's Native Token Transfers (NTT) — the standard trusted by 100+ assets across 40+ chains. 🎉 ➡️Through Wormhole’s Native Token Transfers (NTT)…
🤑 Franklin Templeton and MoonPay have formed a new strategic partnership. One that leads directly to Stellar.

It is the architecture being created. Franklin Templeton provides the regulated financial products. MoonPay provides institutional access and liquidity.

🤝 Together, they create a direct bridge between traditional capital and tokenized assets. This is where the Stellar connection becomes impossible to ignore.

MoonPay has already been part of the Stellar ecosystem through fiat on/off-ramp infrastructure, wallet integrations and direct access points for users moving between traditional money and blockchain-based assets.

🟠The relationship also runs deeper than product integration. Even MoneyGram’s recent launch of MGUSD on Stellar fits into the broader narrative.

❗️But the larger takeaway is not about a single company or one isolated partnership. It is about the emergence of a new financial stack.

➡️Stellar builds the highway. MoonPay builds the ramps. Franklin Templeton brings the assets moving across it.

And the infrastructure powering tomorrow’s financial system may already be operating in plain sight. 🚀

🕵🏼‍♂️ Coinbase, SpaceX, Meta join DOJ anti-scam operation that froze $3.8 million in crypto

Private-sector firms, in coordination with the U.S. Department of Justice's Scam Center Strike Force, froze more than $3.8 million in cryptocurrency linked to fraud schemes during an anti-scam operation targeting networks operating in Southeast Asia.

❗️Dubbed “Disruption Week,” the operation was joined by Apple, Coinbase, Google, Meta, Microsoft, Silent Push, SpaceX, TRM Labs, and Zenlayer. Meta played a key role in coordinating the event and encouraging broader private-sector participation.

The operation led to the arrests of seven scammers in Thailand by the Royal Thai Police Anti-Cyber Scam Center. Multiple scammers and scam platforms were identified and referred to U.S. authorities for investigation and possible prosecution.

➡️ Coinbase said separately that its contribution to the operation included freezing more than $3 million in cryptocurrency assets tied to the criminal networks. The company said the broader effort resulted in more than 1.4 million disabled accounts, thousands of Starlink kits terminated, and 63 arrests in total.

🇹🇷 Turkey, NATO Eye Pipeline Expansion to Bolster Fuel Security

Turkey is trying to connect underground fuel pipelines as part of a $28 billion infrastructure expansion by NATO to enhance the alliance’s fuel security. The project would tie a pipeline system near Corlu, in Thrace, with one in the south near Mersin and the Incirlik Air Base.

Doing so would increase the size of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization’s Cold War-era pipeline system. It would also bolster Turkey’s own energy infrastructure, adding that Ankara would cover the cost of any part of the project intended for civilian use.

June 2, 2026:

Rollup Interviewer:
I’m curious how the partnership with Stellar & DTCC separates itself from the broad partnership and DTCC & 50+ participants?

Denelle Dixon:
It’s all based on the technology. Stellar was built for this from 🔠🔠🔠1️⃣

A lot of the folks at 🔠🔠🔠🔠, especially in the Digital Assets Group, have been working with Stellar since I’ve been here — so since 2️⃣0️⃣1️⃣8️⃣〰️2️⃣0️⃣1️⃣9️⃣📌

They’ve been doing a lot of work to help to build the protocol to the level that it needed to get to for these kinds of institutions to be able to build on it and have the clawback functionality, the freeze functionality… all of those necessary components from a compliance standpoint built in at the core

So you do NOT have to build a smart contract, and you do not have to do this if you don’t want to. You can, but you don’t have to because all of these things in addition to privacy are built in at the core layer

Our tech stack has been proven. We have been building from institutions since 🔠🔠🔠1️⃣

🔠🔠🔠🔠🔠🔠🔠🔠🔠🔠🔠🔠🔠🔠🔠🔠🔠 built the first money market fund on Stellar and started that in 2️⃣0️⃣1️⃣9️⃣📌

They did that without coming to us; they did that by picking the tech stack for the value of the tech stack

So some of these folks that actually are at DTCC are the ones that helped us to get there: that’s the beauty of open public networks, by the way


https://x.com/therollupco/status/2061518237313982609/video/1?s=46


Here is another great public proof straight from Denelle that DTCC helped co-create Stellar’s protocol since 2018 for their own use and Franklin Templeton has also been using Stellar’s protocol since 2019 and also happens to be a Tier 1 Validator Node 🆒

Even though FT didn’t make formal announcements about their partnership with Stellar until 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣3️⃣ 🤣

And DTCC didn’t announce their partnership until August 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣5️⃣🤣


NDAs expire much? 🥰

⚖️ U.S. House tax committee weighs crypto bills, including relief for small transactions

A set of seven crypto tax bills are being circulated in advance of a hearing of the U.S. House Ways and Means committee next week, with each of the legislative drafts tackling its own narrow aspect of digital assets tax treatment, including relaxing demands for taxes on small transactions and the assets gains in mining and staking.

❗️The committee that oversees tax issues is set to discuss the ideas on June 9.

The various proposals include:
→ eliminating tax demands on certain small ( or "de minimis") transactions,
stablecoin activity and network fees;
→ governing the taxation of assets acquired through crypto mining;
melding digital assets with existing tax treatment of securities;
→ applying so-called wash sale rules to crypto;
→ and cutting out an appraisal requirement in digital asset donations to charity.

Though the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act has been the top U.S. policy focus of the crypto industry, Washington lobbyists have routinely said that crypto tax policy was next in line.

⚡️🇺🇸 Trump Signals Interest in US Owning Stakes in Key AI Developers

President Donald Trump expressed interest in the US government holding equity stakes in leading AI developers, saying that he planned to discuss the idea of a partnership with AI companies’ executives as soon as next week.

“There are concepts where pieces could be given to the American public, where the American public essentially becomes a partner with the companies,” — Trump said Friday when asked about the idea by reporters aboard Air Force One. “There’s something very interesting about it, where it almost becomes a partnership with the American public, and we’ll look into that.”

🇺🇸 Seattle to pass one-year AI data center moratorium next week

Two city council committees just passed a data center moratorium in Seattle, making it the biggest jurisdiction in the U.S. to enforce a ban on these projects. But the moratorium and an accompanying resolution must still go through a full council vote on Tuesday, June 9, 2026.

The city intends to spend the one-year hold on data center development to study its impact on the community surrounding it and what the local government should do to ensure that its constituents benefit from the project. This includes putting up pollution standards, determining energy connection requirements, setting contract terms, setting labor standards, and other regulations that will apply to data centers.

🚀 US firm claims space-ready battery can withstand extreme temperatures on Moon

Battery manufacturing firm Solidion Technology has unveiled a new platform that it claims could support future satellites, spacecraft, lunar infrastructure, and low-Earth orbit AI data centers by combining extreme-temperature performance with next-generation lithium metal battery technology.

The Dallas-based company said its Generation Extreme-Climate Battery (Gen-ECB) platform is designed to operate in some of the harshest environments encountered in space missions. According to Solidion, the technology uses graphene’s thermal conductivity and radiation resistance to help regulate battery temperatures and improve reliability. The battery system can function in temperatures ranging from -80°C to +60°C.
