South Korea plans to launch a new securities market in mid-November, and the STO market is at a critical turning point

Comparatively, the Korea Exchange (KRX) plans to launch a new securities market on November 16. At that time, assets such as art, real estate, and music copyright will be traded like stocks through securities accounts. According to reports, the Korea Exchange is currently advancing the construction of relevant trading systems and preparations for market participants, and will conduct simulated trading for 6 weeks from October 6 to November 13. The official opening time may be adjusted according to the financial supervisory authority's approval process for listed products. After the market opens, investors can trade through securities company accounts, and the trading time is consistent with the stock market. Analysts believe that the securities token issuance (STO) industry in the Korean market is already at an important turning point. Although new securities listed and traded in November will be temporarily issued and registered using traditional electronic securities methods, subsequent tokenized securities based on blockchain distributed ledger issuance and management will gradually be implemented after the relevant laws are officially implemented in February 2027.

South Korea plans to open virtual asset accounts to about 3,500 companies, and the central bank plans to test AI proxy deposit tokens by the end of 2026

Comparing news, Factblock CEO and Korea Blockchain Week organizer Andrew Park said that the Korean crypto market is shifting from being driven by retail transactions to institutional digital finance. The focus of global financial institutions and enterprises has moved from tokens, exchanges, and prices to escrow, tokenization, stablecoins, payment and settlement infrastructure, and regulatory compliance. The Korea Financial Services Commission has proposed a framework to open corporate virtual asset accounts to approximately 3,500 listed companies and registered professional investors. The National Assembly of Korea has officially passed amendments to the Electronic Securities Act and the Capital Markets Act to incorporate tokenized real-world assets and security tokens into a unified legal framework. The Bank of Korea has completed initial testing of the Project Hangang real-world deposit token project and plans to conduct the second phase of institutional testing in late 2026. Related technical experiments have used wholesale deposit tokens to allow AI agents to execute automated conditional transactions.

Grayscale: New US SEC regulations may benefit ETH, SOL, and BNB; on-chain issuance will drive the return of value

Comparatively, according to Bitcoin.com, Grayscale Research Director Zach Pandl pointed out in the analysis report that if the SEC's proposed new regulation of crypto assets (Crypto Assets) is finally implemented, Ethereum, Solana, and BNB Chain may become the main beneficiaries. The proposal establishes two exemption routes: projects with financing under $5 million can be exempted from registration for 4 years, projects with financing under 75 million US dollars can be exempted from registration for 1 year, and a conditional safe haven. The aim is to provide a clear domestic compliance path for the issuance of crypto assets and reduce issuers' motivation to operate overseas. Pandl pointed out that tokenized financing was previously blocked due to vague regulations. If the new regulations stimulate issuance activities, it will bring more US issuers and investors to go online and drive value back to underlying networks and native tokens such as ETH, SOL, and BNB. The proposal is still in the comment phase, and the final rules may be adjusted due to public comments and SEC review, and larger network activity does not guarantee a rise in the token price.

Daily AI · Crypto · Macro · Market Highlights, Bitpush helps you set priorities ↓ AI · News [Anthropic plans to include anti-AI sentiment as the main risk factor in the prospectus]. According to CNBC, Anthropic is expected to list the public's negative sentiment about artificial intelligence and data centers as a risk factor in the IPO prospectus to be released in the next few weeks. According to people familiar with the matter, Anthropic recently held a pre-listing “market trial” meeting with bankers and investors. Investors focused on competitive pressure, the impact of open source models on profit margins, and the risks that may be brought about by a slowdown in data center construction. Anthropic is currently valued at close to $1 trillion in the private equity market and is preparing to hit a major IPO. However, as Americans' concerns about AI replacing employment and data center expansion heat up, the related backlash sentiment is becoming a new challenge facing the company's listing. The company has previously achieved an annualized revenue operating rate of more than 65 billion US dollars.

Apple admitted in a statement that the company is making adjustments to some teams “to drive business development and provide the best experience for users.” [Castle Securities: Over 80% of the overall risk in the Situational Awareness Fund portfolio has been divested] According to the Financial Times, Castle Securities founder Ken Griffin responded to the company's acquisition of Situational Awareness assets under Leopold (Leopold) in a letter to clients on Friday.

SEC Proposes Reg Crypto: Establishing a Legal Path for the Public Offering of Some Tokens and the Withdrawal of Investment Contracts

Comparing news, Galaxy's research director posted an article on the X platform stating that the US Securities and Exchange Commission proposed the “Crypto Asset Regulation” to regulate Crypto Assets, referred to as Reg Crypto for short. The proposal aims to establish a legal path for some tokens to be issued to the US public and establish a mechanism to terminate investment contracts. The scope of application is limited to cryptographic assets that are not securities themselves but have been issued or sold as part of an investment contract. Tokenized stocks, bonds, and arrangements for bundling tokens with shares or other securities are not within the framework. The proposal establishes four stages: financing, disclosure, construction, and exit. The one-time startup exemption allows issuers to raise $5 million over a maximum period of 4 years; higher exemptions set by reference to Regulation A allow $20 million or $75 million in 12 months. Relevant financing is subject to SEC qualification review and ongoing disclosure. The maximum investment amount for uncertified investors is 10% of those with high annual income or net assets. Issuers are also required to disclose token supply and release plans, minting and destruction mechanisms, governance and smart contract authority, source code, and project construction commitments and progress. When the issuer completes or permanently suspends the relevant construction obligations, does not make new construction commitments, and submits a transition report, the relevant investment contract will be deemed terminated, and cryptographic assets will no longer be subject to the securities law under the investment contract. Issuers that have not used the above financing exemptions can also use this safe harbor. The US Securities and Exchange Commission estimates that approximately 475 issuers will use the safe haven of investment contracts each year, and about 130 issuers will use the two new exemptions. Eligible issuances may not be restricted securities and may be immediately resold without contractual restrictions. The proposal also excludes covered initial offerings and some secondary transactions from state registration and qualification requirements, but it does not involve exchanges, brokers, dealers, escrow, or independent innovation exemptions for tokenized securities and on-chain transactions. The comment period is 60 days after publication in the Federal Register. SEC Chairman Paul Atkins and members Hester Peirce and Mark Uyeda all issued statements of support.

Tom Lee: BitMine shares are 80% correlated with ETH, and ETH will outperform BTC in this cycle

In comparison, BitMine Chairman Tom Lee posted an article listing 17 large cap stocks (with a market capitalization of over $2 billion) that are highly relevant to cryptocurrencies for reference by stock investors seeking crypto exposure. Among them, BMNR had the highest correlation with ETH at 80%, followed by COIN (74%); MSTR had the highest correlation with BTC at 78%, followed by COIN (74%). Tom Lee said that ETH is expected to outperform BTC in this cycle, driven by tokenization and AI applications, and believes that this logic is far more important than the drivers for ETH to outperform cycles in the past.

Bernstein: Bitcoin's shock to $80,000 was driven by liquidity, ETF funding flows have picked up

Comparative news, according to The Block, analysts at Bernstein believe that Bitcoin's rebound over the past two days may mark a shift in market momentum, behind which is an improvement in the liquidity environment, a recovery in ETF demand, and friendly regulation. Bitcoin hit $79,500 on Friday and then fell back to about $78,000. Analysts linked this round of rebound to the US Treasury's announcement to increase repurchases of long-term treasury bonds, believing that liquidity expansion has always been beneficial to Bitcoin. Furthermore, Ethereum outperformed Bitcoin in this round of rebound, which analysts attributed to ETH's higher exposure to stablecoins, tokenization, and real assets. Spot Bitcoin ETF capital flows have changed from net outflows in May and June to net inflows of $1.6 billion this week, and the management scale has risen to over $85 billion; Strategy holdings have changed to surplus of over $2 billion, and cash reserves can cover 2.8-year dividend expenses. Bernstein also mentioned that regardless of whether the much-publicized “CLARITY Act” (which will be subject to a procedural vote on September 15) is passed, the SEC and CFTC are expected to speed up the legislative process in areas such as native token issuance, equity tokenization, perpetual contracts, computing power derivatives, and predictive markets.

If it's just tokenized assets and doesn't connect to DeFi, what's left of RWA?

If it's just tokenized assets and doesn't connect to DeFi, what's left of RWA?

Author: Jesus Rodriguez, co-founder of Sentora Compiled by: Luffy, Foresight News Original title: Does RWA still make sense without DeFi? Discussions in the RWA industry often begin with a simple vision: take a treasury bill, fund share, stock, invoice, megawatt hour, or GPU for one hour, then mint a token representing it. Is it useful? It's really useful. But can it be called transformative? It's far from there. This is like putting a bar code on a container and claiming that a global trade problem has been solved. Barcodes make containers recognizable and machine-readable, but they don't create ports, cranes, customs, insurance, financing, shipping routes out of thin air, or bring in buyers from afar. A token is simply an addressable token of interest, and DeFi is a marketplace operating system. The question really worth discussing is not how many types of assets can go on the chain, but how many assets can complete valuation, financing, hedging, transaction monetization, and loss disposal in a stressful environment, and there is no need for offline meetings and coordination every time a transaction occurs. Tokenization completes the representation of equity; what DeFi brings is actual utility. Tokenization is just a bar code, and a similar scene has happened in the history of the supply chain finance market. The reason why mortgages can be scaled up is not as simple as turning a paper document into an electronic record. To actually achieve large-scale expansion, a complete set of operating mechanisms was created around this type of asset: credit review, post-loan services, securitization, credit rating, warehousing and financing, repurchases, hedging, clearing and settlement, and loss allocation rules. RWA also needed to go through the exact same evolutionary process. An asset that can be adapted to DeFi requires six levels: legally enforceable rights, reliable data sources, clear transfer and redemption rules, enforceable secondary market liquidity, collateral parameters that match actual behavior, and a credible settlement and loss disposal path. Most tokenization projects, on the other hand, tend to stop at the top five levels. There is a simple test that can be used to test the maturity of an asset. It only requires answering three questions: How much is this asset currently worth? Can the agreement complete withdrawal and monetization at this point? If the first two judgments are all wrong, who bears the loss? When smart contracts can definitively answer the above three questions, RWA can truly become a basic component of finance. Before that, it was mostly just a digital packaging shell. The deepest technical contradiction of RWA's quadruple time clock is that RWA runs under multiple sets of different time clocks at the same time. The blockchain can complete settlement in seconds and operate uninterrupted for 7 x 24 hours; oracles may update prices every hour or every day; underlying traditional exchanges are closed at night and on weekends; custodians follow bank working days; and the asset redemption process may take 1 day, 5 days, or even 30 days. If you use such a slow-paced RWA asset to support fast-maturing DeFi liabilities, such as stablecoin loans. This is the term shift, and it is also the core model that banks have relied on for hundreds of years: using short-term debt to fund long-term slow assets. This model has practical value, but the risk must be reasonably priced. Imagine a scenario: At 2 a.m. on Sunday, assets hit the liquidation threshold. Smart contracts can seize tokens immediately, but the underlying real-world market won't open until Monday, and the issuer's redemption business will not be processed until Tuesday. On-chain liquidation has been completed, and real-world asset disposal has only just begun. This creates a clearing gap. DeFi requires immediate withdrawal for monetization, but the real world does not allow it. The time difference between the two. This gap has counterintuitive consequences. Even treasury bonds with very low volatility are riskier than native crypto assets that are more volatile when used as collateral. The price of ETH fluctuates drastically, but it can be traded around the clock; the price of RWA assets appears to be stable, and it may only be up to a dozen hours without a new price tag. A flat price sometimes represents safety, and sometimes it's just a disguise of stale data. Liquidity is an exit channel, not TVL. The digital public also has common misunderstandings about liquidity. Liquidity is not equal to TVL, does not equal the existence of a trading pair, nor does it mean that the issuer promises to eventually redeem it according to net worth. Liquidity refers to the ability to convert a position into the settlement asset you need at an acceptable discount within the time window allowed by your debt. Take a crowded theater for example: the size of the hall cannot determine whether it is safe in the event of a fire; what really matters is the width of the exit channel. One copy of RWA to...
