Hong Kong prepares third batch of tokenized bonds, eyes more offerings Hong Kong prepares third batch of tokenized bonds and unveils a sweeping digital asset strategy to solidify its role as Asia’s crypto finance leader. Hong Kong plans to expand its tokenized bond program, as the government prepares a third batch of tokenized green bonds and signals intentions to make such issuances a regular feature of its debt strategy. Speaking at the Hong Kong Digital Finance Awards 2025, Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury Christopher Hui confirmed that the government’s upcoming tokenized bond sale builds on the success of two earlier rounds of tokenized green bonds issued in 2023 and 2024. The bonds were recorded and settled on distributed ledger technology, according to a Thursday report from Beijing state-owned newspaper Wen wei Po. https://cointelegraph.com/news/hongkong-tokenized-bonds-digital-asset-strategy

Adecoagro Partners With Tether to Pioneer Renewable Energy Use for Bitcoin Mining in Brazil Tether and Adecoagro Partner to Establish Green Energy Bitcoin Mining Operation in Brazil Tether, one of the largest companies in the cryptocurrency space, and Adecoagro, a Latam-based agricultural company, have teamed up to explore new bitcoin mining opportunities in Brazil. The two companies have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to this end, aiming to monetize the energy surpluses of Adecoagro’s renewable energy generation. While Adecoagro is currently selling this excess energy at spot market prices, this collaboration would allow the two companies to invest in a new reserve asset, potentially increasing the revenue obtained from this green energy. https://news.bitcoin.com/adecoagro-partners-with-tether-to-pioneer-renewable-energy-use-for-bitcoin-mining-in-brazil/

Flare eyes further losses as assets incentive program launch goes muted Flare Network (FLR) edges higher by less than 1% at press time on Wednesday after three consecutive days of trading in the red. The minor recovery aligns with the launch of the FAssets Incentive Program, which includes 2.2 billion FLR tokens. Despite a growth in the fundamental roadmap, the technical outlook for FLR remains bearish. Flare supports cryptocurrencies without smart contract capabilities, such as XRP, Bitcoin (BTC), and Dogecoin (DOGE), through FAssets. In an attempt to boost DeFi adoption of FAssets at an institutional level, Flare announced on Tuesday the launch of the FAssets Incentive Program. https://www.fxstreet.com/cryptocurrencies/news/flare-eyes-further-losses-as-assets-incentive-program-launch-goes-muted-202507020735

Treasury Secretary Bessent Leads Search for Next Fed Chair as Powell's Term Nears End Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is playing a pivotal role in the process of replacing Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, with President Donald Trump indicating an announcement on Powell’s successor could come within weeks. Powell’s term as chair is scheduled to end in May 2026. Potential candidates reportedly under consideration include Bessent himself, former Fed governor Kevin Warsh, National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett, current Fed governor Christopher Waller, and former World Bank President David Malpass. Warsh, viewed as an early favorite, has been interviewed by Trump and holds views critical of the Fed’s credibility. https://news.bitcoin.com/treasury-secretary-bessent-leads-search-for-next-fed-chair-as-powells-term-nears-end/

Fairmint calls for blockchain framework for private markets in SEC proposal The proposal outlines a seven-step framework that includes real-time regulatory oversight and updates to investor accreditation standards. Crypto-native companies are ramping up efforts to influence regulatory guidance on digital asset transactions. On Monday, transfer agent Fairmint proposed a framework to the United States Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC’s) Crypto Task Force targeting what it described as outdated and fragmented back-end infrastructure in private securities administration. Submitted to SEC Chairman Paul Atkins and Commissioner Hester Peirce, Fairmint’s seven-part proposal targets standardizing infrastructure for interoperability across transfer agents, introducing real-time regulatory observability through blockchain and enabling investor self-custody with compliance safeguards. https://cointelegraph.com/news/fairmint-blockchain-framework-private-markets-sec-proposal

Bitcoin Bounces Back: Rising Demand Signals Market Confidence Bitcoin is showing signs of a comeback, currently trading less than 3% below its all-time high. After hovering around $105,000 since late May, this price surge indicates growing momentum. It also reflects renewed confidence among investors, many of whom are eager to increase their Bitcoin holdings. CryptoQuant, an on-chain provider, has observed a noticeable increase in Bitcoin purchases, particularly among US-based investors. Such renewed buying activity often reflects a hidden phase of accumulation and signals a positive outlook on the asset’s future performance. The data provider further revealed that this buying surge is similar to a usual pattern seen after market corrections, where investors accumulate assets steadily without excessive speculation. Such behaviour suggests the current rally is balanced and not driven by irrational exuberance. https://www.cointribune.com/en/bitcoin-bounces-back-rising-demand-signals-market-confidence/

The Optimistic Oracle provider could also attract more users and firms UMA crypto could surge 200% after the deal between Elon Musk’s X and Polymarket. The Optimistic Oracle provider could also attract more users and firms. Last week was both hot and cold for crypto. Just when many thought Bitcoin would crash below $100,000, the coin rebounded over the weekend, lifting above $106,000, boosting some of the best cryptos to buy. Among the altcoins that posted decent gains was the UMA Protocol, an OG crypto project that not only rejected lower lows but is already up over 20% over the weekend. https://99bitcoins.com/news/altcoins/is-uma-crypto-ready-for-a-200-rally-after-polymarket-and-x-deal/

How Ethereum Is Faring Since Its Major Pectra Upgrade Not only has ETH's price surged, but Ethereum's Pectra upgrade has made a sizable impact on the network ecosystem. Here's how. A month after the Pectra upgrade, key indicators on Ethereum have begun to reveal the promise and pitfalls of the network's most ambitious technical overhaul since the 2022 "merge." One of the major features that the Pectra upgrade brought was expanding the Ethereum blockchain's capacity for handling "blobs," which are units of "ephemeral data storage," helping keep larger amounts of it on the consensus layer, according to a definition from the Protocol developer team. A blob is a dedicated data structure that can store larger amounts of data. More blobs means transactions, layer-2 networks, and rollup operations could get even cheaper. https://decrypt.co/323998/how-ethereum-faring-since-major-pectra-upgrade
