In Minnesota, Banks and Credit Unions Allowed to Offer Cryptocurrency Custody Services
Governor Tim Walz signed the corresponding law, which will come into effect on August 1, 2026. Institutions are required to submit information to the state's commerce commissioner 60 days before they begin providing services. This information includes risk management mechanisms and the segregation of client assets from the institution's own assets.
The author of the bill, Republican Bernie Perryman, stated that the goal of the legislation is to utilize local platforms instead of offshore companies. Similar bills have previously been passed in New York, Wyoming, and Virginia. Additionally, Minnesota will ban the installation of new cryptocurrency ATMs starting August 1, and operators are required to dismantle all 400 devices in the state by December 31.

Standard Chartered predicts that the volume of tokenized assets will reach $4 trillion by the end of 2028. The market capitalization of stablecoins and RWAs is expected to be $2 trillion each. Established DeFi protocols are set to gain the most benefit. The adoption of the Clarity Act could act as a catalyst for growth.

Iran plans to earn $10 billion in BTC for allowing ships to pass through the Strait of Hormuz.
The country has launched a website called "Hormuz Safe" to issue maritime insurance policies and certificates for transport. Iran intends to charge $1 in BTC for each barrel of oil. Fees from tankers could range from $200,000 to $2 million. The scheme is likely to use the second-layer BTC network — the Lightning Network. This network allows transactions to be sent in seconds, rather than waiting for a 10-minute block confirmation. Unlike regular BTC transactions, payments are conducted off-chain through private channels between nodes. However, after passing through Hormuz, ships might face violations of international sanctions.
According to Polymarket, the probability of normalizing movement in the strait by July is 30%. Meanwhile, the lifting of the U.S. blockade by this period is 48%.

Bank of Korea-Backed Clearing Body Files Won Stablecoin Reserve Patent
Korea's payment infrastructure is moving ahead of stalled legislation on won-pegged stablecoins, laying the groundwork for an independent reserve audit regime of the kind built into the US GENIUS Act and the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) framework.
The Korea Financial Telecommunications and Clearings Institute (KFTC), a bank-owned non-profit operating South Korea's interbank settlement network under Bank of Korea oversight, filed a patent for technology that verifies whether stablecoin issuers hold reserves matching tokens in circulation, Seoul Economic Daily reported on 19 Jun. The technology cross-checks an issuer's reported reserves against actual holdings to confirm 1:1 backing.
KFTC separately registered a related patent on 18 May, covering a hybrid atomic swap system that links different blockchains with conventional financial networks, ensuring asset transfers across these systems settle without rollback risk.

Bitcoin miners are becoming AI companies and selling their BTC to fund the transition
The average public miner spent $79,995 to produce one bitcoin last quarter. Bitcoin is trading at $70,000. The math doesn't work, so the industry is pivoting to AI, taking on $70 billion in contracts, and liquidating bitcoin treasuries to finance the shift.
