1 hours ago

According to an official announcement, HashKey Holdings Limited (“HashKey” or the “Company”, stock code: 3887) announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary HKDAG (Singapore) Pte. Ltd. has entered into a non-binding framework agreement with the major shareholders of Asia Pacific Exchange Pte. Ltd. (“APEX”) and APEX, proposing to acquire all of APEX’s equity interests. APEX and its group operate a comprehensive and well-established financial market infrastructure in Singapore. As a licensed derivatives trading platform in Singapore, APEX holds the “Approved Exchange (AE)” license issued by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS); its subsidiary Asia Pacific Clear Pte. Ltd. holds the “Approved Clearing House (ACH)” license, with integrated issuance and clearing capabilities. Under Singapore’s strict regulatory system, currently only three institutions in the entire market hold both licenses. If the proposed acquisition is successfully completed, HashKey is expected to further improve its layout of trading and clearing infrastructure for the institutional market, promote the construction of a new generation of financial infrastructure covering trading, custody, payment, clearing and settlement, and enhance its comprehensive service capabilities for financial institutions and institutional market participants.

Circle’s EU Policy Director: “The MiCA stablecoin regulation bill has significant gaps, and an overseas token recognition mechanism needs to be introduced.”

Circle’s Senior Director of EU Strategy and Policy Patrick Hansen (@paddi_hansen) published an article noting that since the EU’s Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation took effect, roughly 35 electronic money tokens (EMTs) from 21 institutions have secured compliance certifications. Banks and e-money institutions are entering the space, with strong local issuance momentum. However, among the world’s top 50 stablecoins, only three—USDC, USDG, and EURC—currently meet MiCA requirements, while the rest operate outside the regulatory framework, leaving EU users facing a dual dilemma: either insufficient protection or forced access restrictions. Hansen argues that for MiCA to truly serve as a global regulatory benchmark, two goals must be achieved in parallel: first, drive local EMTs to go global via a competitive regulatory regime; second, establish a recognition mechanism for overseas compliant stablecoins to attract global issuers to join the MiCA framework, rather than making local issuance the sole entry path.

Grayscale: HYPE remains undervalued relative to fintech stocks, with its protocol profit projected to reach $1 billion by 2027.

Grayscale Research’s latest report notes that Hyperliquid’s native token HYPE remains undervalued relative to publicly listed fintech companies. Research head Zach Pandl applied a valuation metric analogous to stocks’ earnings per share (EPS) — earnings per token — projecting Hyperliquid’s protocol profit will reach approximately $1 billion in 2027, a roughly 20% increase from 2025. The report forecasts HYPE’s circulating supply will rise to 270 million to 310 million tokens by the end of 2027, corresponding to earnings per token of $3.25 to $3.75. At its current price of around $54, HYPE’s forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio stands at 15 to 18 times, a valuation Grayscale says is still lower than most fintech firms. However, the report flags key risks including underperforming protocol revenue growth and overly rapid token supply expansion. Meanwhile, HYPE has fallen roughly 29% from its June all-time high, with recent institutional unstaking and capital outflows continuing to weigh on market sentiment.

The Russian ruble-pegged stablecoin A7A5 processed over $100 billion in transfers within a year, with its market capitalization now having plummeted by 96%.

Blockchain analytics firm Elliptic has released a report stating that A7A5, a ruble stablecoin backed by a sanctioned Russian state-owned bank, has facilitated over $100 billion in cumulative fund transfers in its first year of launch and was used to evade Western sanctions. Today, the token’s market size has shrunk by 96%. Elliptic notes that while A7A5’s smart contract remains operational, a stablecoin only holds practical value if it can be redeemed. After the U.S., U.K., and EU imposed sanctions on the network behind A7A5, on-chain funds linked to the token now carry clear "sanctioned" labels. Major trading platforms typically conduct compliance screening on deposit addresses, using on-chain analytics tools to identify related fund flows and freeze or block such funds. Even if A7A5 itself cannot be frozen, as long as its fiat on-ramps, off-ramps, and trading access points are blocked, its actual circulation capacity will remain severely limited.
