Odaily reports: Bitget, in partnership with digital asset research firm Block Scholes, has released a new research report analyzing the synergistic effects of tokenized stocks and crypto assets within a unified trading account. In the report, Block Scholes simulated a portfolio with a total size of $1 million, comprising AI and semiconductor-related tokenized stocks, BTC and ETH perpetual contracts, and Nasdaq 100 ETF perpetual contracts. Under a structure with separate accounts, margin requirements would total approximately $340,000 in capital occupation. However, within Bitget's cross-asset unified account, tokenized stocks can simultaneously count as collateral, reducing the required capital occupation to approximately $175,000 — a reduction of about 48.5%.

The report also analyzed the risk characteristics associated with higher capital efficiency. Stress tests showed that when collateral and positions are driven by the same macroeconomic factors, a simulated portfolio using tokenized stocks as collateral reached its estimated liquidation point after a roughly 21% correlated market decline; when equivalent USDT was used as collateral, it withstood a roughly 27% correlated decline. The research indicates that while improving capital efficiency, it is also necessary to comprehensively assess the correlation between collateral and positions as well as their individual volatility.

Bitget CEO Gracy Chen stated that bringing assets on-chain is only the first step; more importantly, it is about improving the efficiency of capital utilization across different markets. Bitget is advancing the UEX model to facilitate the coordinated operation of crypto assets, tokenized stocks, and other global assets within a unified capital framework. Currently, Bitget's Universal Trading Account (UTA) supports over 370 eligible collateral assets, including 125 tokenized US stocks. Eligible crypto assets and tokenized stocks can enter the same margin system, sharing collateral value and being used to meet margin requirements across different positions.

Odaily News: A report by the U.S. Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations (PSI) has identified stablecoins, particularly USDT, as a key liquidity channel supporting Iran's shadow banking system. Licensed Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs) in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region face heightened sanctions compliance pressure and need to strengthen wallet attribution identification and counterparty assessment.

Soham Jethani, a partner at law firm Septten, stated that merchants settling crypto assets into local fiat currency does not mean they can circumvent sanctions risk. Liability may arise from providing designated persons, funds, or economic resources, as well as handling assets within the transaction chain, and may materialize before the bank completes final settlement.

Jethani noted that the name of a stablecoin or its denomination currency does not determine legal ownership; specific rights depend on contractual arrangements and the actual payment process. Globally circulating stablecoins may also bring secondary sanctions risk. Indirect or historical wallet associations do not automatically constitute a violation; determination requires consideration of the applicable regime, transaction participants, and specific facts.

In regulated markets such as the UAE, licensed exchange wallets are continuously monitored, and relevant funds can be frozen before consumer settlement, while merchants must also complete KYC. Regulated VASPs handling deposits and withdrawals bear responsibility for counterparty and sanctions risk assessment and corresponding controls. (Bitcoin.com News)

Odaily reports: Polygon's official X account today posted a "Polygon is not dead" announcement, seemingly mocking Abstract's shutdown. In response, Polygon founder Sandeep posted a statement saying that the content did not achieve the intended传播 effect, and many community users interpreted it in a completely different way. He himself was also confused when he saw the content, but it was clearly the Polygon marketing team's self-deprecation, because some people had always said that Polygon was already dead, while Polygon's fundamentals were steadily rising.

Sandeep added that the content was not intended to allude to Abstract's shutdown, and emphasized that he deeply respects Abstract founder Luca Netz and his team, and would not mock Abstract. Polygon had also terminated the zkEVM project, so he knows that pain well. He hereby clarifies the misunderstanding and would not make fun of them over this, and wishes Luca and the Pudgy Penguins team all the best.
