Odaily Planet Daily News SpaceX is about to launch a large-scale initial public offering (IPO), triggering a large concentration of funds on Wall Street.

Bisq protocol attacked, 11 BTC stolen, compensation plan under discussion
ChainCatcher news, according to market news, the protocol was recently attacked due to a lack of verification mechanisms, resulting in the theft of about 11 BTC, mainly involving altcoin transactions. Attackers exploited negative gas fee vulnerabilities to transfer funds to their own accounts through multi-signature transactions.
Currently, Bisq is discussing compensation options, with victims choosing Bitcoin or BSQ token compensation, but it will be implemented after a DAO vote, which is expected to be determined after the DAO cycle ends on May 25. Bisq said it has fixed the vulnerability and plans to roll out patch updates while strengthening codebase security reviews, focusing on vulnerabilities that could affect wallets. Additionally, Bisq reminds users to temporarily reduce the amount of BTC stored in their wallets. Officials believe that although this incident is serious, it is controllable and hopes to provide safety warnings for other projects.
Morgan Stanley: It will take time for Bitcoin to enter the balance sheet of Bank of America, but the layout is already advancing
ChainCatcher news, according to CoinDesk, Morgan Stanley's head of digital asset strategy Amy Oldenburg said at the Bitcoin Conference in Las Vegas that Bank of America may hold Bitcoin on its balance sheet in the future, but due to Federal Reserve guidance, Basel Accord and global regulatory requirements, the landing time is still uncertain.

Oldenburg pointed out that the slow progress in advisor adoption is mainly due to the education gap, and banks have launched internal training programs to address it and are applying for OCC digital trust licenses to support direct custody of crypto assets and spot crypto trading services.

Trump: Will help ships leave the Strait of Hormuz on Monday and actively negotiate with Iran
According to TechFlow News, on May 04, countries from all over the world, many of which are almost unrelated to the current obvious and violent dispute in the Middle East, have asked the United States for help to release the ships blocked in the Strait of Hormuz, and the incidents in which these ships are involved have nothing to do with them - they are just neutral and innocent bystanders! For the benefit of Iran, the Middle East and the United States, we have informed these countries that we will safely guide their ships out of these restricted waters so that they can continue their business freely and smoothly. Once again, these ships come from regions that have nothing to do with the current situation in the Middle East. I have instructed my representatives to inform them that we will do our utmost to ensure that their vessels and crews leave the strait safely.
All parties have stated that they will not return until safe navigation and other conditions are restored in the area. The process, called Project Freedom, will begin on Monday morning (Middle East time). I am fully aware that my representative is engaged in very active discussions with the Iranian state, which could lead to very positive results for all. The ship moved only to free those people, companies and countries that were at fault - they were victims of the current situation. This is a humanitarian initiative by the United States, the countries of the Middle East, and especially the state of Iran. Many ships have little food and other essential supplies left, making it difficult to maintain the health and hygiene of large crews. I think it will be a great demonstration of the goodwill of all those who have fought over the past few months. If there is any disruption to this humanitarian process, then this interference will unfortunately need to be dealt with in a tough manner. (Jin Shi)

Kashkari: The longer the war lasts, the greater the inflationary pressure
ChainCatcher news, according to Jinshi, Fed official Kashkari said that the longer the war lasts, the greater the inflationary pressure will be. In some cases, the Fed may need to raise interest rates to address this challenge.
Mike Cagney, founder of Figure Technology Solutions (FIGR), said that the company is promoting the reconstruction of the underlying facilities of the traditional credit market through blockchain, moving loans, real-world assets (RWA) and even stocks to the chain, with the goal of getting credit flow away from the traditional intermediary system and becoming "the new infrastructure of Wall Street". According to the data, Figure's monthly loan issuance scale exceeded $1 billion for the first time in March this year, and the total issuance volume in the first quarter of 2026 reached $2.9 billion, with an annualized scale of about $12 billion.
Mike Cagney pointed out that loan tokenization can significantly reduce securitization costs, reduce traditional intermediary fees, improve liquidity through continuously updated credit markets in real time, and enable on-chain credit assets to be directly connected to the DeFi ecosystem, expanding the scope of investor participation. Its Forge platform can package loans into standardized asset pools and convert them into tokens that can be used as collateral in DeFi protocols.
Currently, Figure has promoted related businesses in the Solana ecosystem and plans to expand to Ethereum. In addition, the company launched YLDS, an income-yielding stablecoin backed by traditional assets such as U.S. Treasury bonds with a scale of about $600 million, and explored stock tokenization and on-chain staking lending. According to Mike Cagney, blockchain will be one of the most transformative technologies and redefine the structure of financial markets in the future. （CoinDesk）

Starlink's user size has grown by about 4 times in four years, but single-user revenue continues to decline
ChainCatcher news, according to The Information, the number of Starlink users worldwide has increased to about 7.8 million in 2025, a significant increase compared to 2021. However, its average monthly revenue per user (ARPU) fell by about 18% over the same period, reflecting that the company is capturing the global market through lower prices and massive expansion.
According to the report, Starlink's current growth mainly comes from emerging markets and the expansion of low-cost packages, including Africa, Latin America and parts of Asia. At the same time, although enterprises and high-margin businesses such as aviation and maritime are still growing, their proportion of overall revenue is limited.
Analysts believe that Starlink is gradually shifting from "high-end satellite Internet services" to a more popular global broadband network, diluting launch and satellite deployment costs through scale expansion, and further strengthening Elon Musk's influence in the field of global communication infrastructure.
