May 30 — Self-proclaimed "Stock God" Serenity, a high-profile senior trader on Reddit’s WallStreetBets (WSB) forum, published an analysis piece breaking down the latest Foxconn shareholders meeting news and strongly recommended Foxconn’s subsidiary, ChipTech Holdings. Per the meeting, Foxconn’s Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) switches are confirmed to start shipping in Q3, with a target of 10,000 units shipped in 2026. The company aims to become a global leader in the CPO space and projects explosive growth next year. Serenity specifically noted that ChipTech Holdings is Foxconn’s division responsible for advanced optical operations, adding that these order volumes haven’t been fully reflected in Foxconn’s financial reports yet but are likely to show up in the second half of the year. He frames this positioning as ahead of the next AI hardware super cycle, calling it the next big opportunity in the AI sector. BlockBeats Note: Serenity is a highly influential WSB trader, with a cumulative in

May 30 — OpenAI has held discussions with Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase, and other firms about joining its upcoming initial public offering (IPO), according to sources familiar with the plans. Citigroup and JPMorgan could team up with Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley to underwrite the listing, though negotiations with the two banks do not guarantee their final participation, and additional investment banks may still sign on. This comes after a May 21 report that OpenAI planned to confidentially submit its IPO application to U.S. regulators soon, with Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley assisting in drafting the offering prospectus. While some sources have suggested OpenAI aims to go public as early as September, the timeline remains fluid and subject to change due to ongoing uncertainties.

On May 30, Rand, founder of Zama Protocol, released a new statement regarding the recent freezing of the cUSDC contract. The root cause of the incident has been pinpointed: it is entirely unrelated to Zama or its privacy technology. Instead, the issue stemmed from approximately $12.5 million in USDC deposited by a hacker address linked to Overnight Finance. At the time, this address was not flagged on any sanctions lists and was not detected by KYT (Know Your Transaction) tools. Last night, a U.S. court issued a restraining order to freeze the wallet associated with the hacker. Since over 99% of the funds in the contract originated from this illicit source, the court directly ordered the entire wrapper contract frozen to seize the illegal funds. Zama emphasized that it has always upheld a "compliance with confidentiality" stance and will not tolerate any illegal activities. Currently, the project is in communication with all relevant parties to expedite the unfreezing process. Meanwh

On May 30th, analyst Darkfost noted that since September 2025, stablecoin inflows from Binance’s whale-tier entities have been cut in half—dropping from roughly $62 billion per month to $33 billion—signaling a sharp decline in whale participation in the crypto market. Large stablecoin inflows to trading platforms typically indicate renewed investor interest and an impending asset repricing. Conversely, a pullback in these inflows suggests major capital is exiting the market. Monitoring whale activity remains one of the most reliable methods to gauge crypto market sentiment. Right now, ongoing uncertainty from the U.S.-Iran conflict and its spillover effects makes robust risk management crucial.

May 30 Flash Update: In response to Circle’s freeze of the cUSDC Contract (related link: https://www.theblockbeats.info/flash/348562), Zama released an official statement noting that Circle’s compliance system flagged an external depositor’s wallet. Because this wallet held funds in the cUSDC contract, the entire contract was automatically swept into a standard holding freeze. This was an incidental impact—not a sanction against the Zama Protocol. Zama’s legal team has intervened to isolate the flagged address and will promptly restore access for all unaffected participants.
