US SEC Corporate Finance Division Deputy Director Cicely LaMothe Announces Retirement

Cicely LaMothe, Deputy Director of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Corporate Finance Division, has announced her retirement. She has played a significant role in crypto regulation over the past year, including issuing clarifying statements indicating that meme coins do not fall under securities and explaining the SEC's regulatory stance on staking operations. LaMothe joined the SEC in 2002 and was involved in drafting key policies such as registration statements. Her departure coincides with the SEC's second year of adopting a more favorable new direction in the crypto industry. During this time, the SEC has approved listing standards for some crypto asset-related ETFs, dismissed several enforcement cases against well-known crypto companies, and advanced the "Project Crypto" to update the regulatory framework for digital assets. Additionally, the SEC confirmed that Nekia Hackworth Jones, Deputy Director of the Enforcement Division's Southeast Region, completed her term at the end of December.

South Korean Media Exposes Ruling Party Officials' Conflict of Interest in Crypto Regulation: Criticizing Upbit While Son Interns at Bithumb

Kim Byung-ki, the ruling Democratic Party's floor leader in South Korea, is facing pressure to resign. Multiple South Korean media outlets have reported that while he was pushing for criticism against South Korea's largest crypto trading platform Upbit in the National Assembly, his son was interning at competitor Bithumb, raising questions about potential conflicts of interest. According to a former assistant of Kim Byung-ki, his team was instructed to "concentrate attacks" on Upbit's operator Dunamu, focusing on accusations of monopoly in the domestic crypto trading market. This directive reportedly occurred in February of this year when Kim Byung-ki was still a member of the National Assembly's Political Affairs Committee, which has direct regulatory authority over financial institutions and crypto trading platforms. Investigative media NewsTapa previously reported that Kim Byung-ki's son was arranged to intern in Bithumb's data analysis team shortly after a private meeting between Kim Byung-ki and Bithumb executives in November 2024. In the following weeks, Kim Byung-ki criticized a "market-dominating trading platform" multiple times in committee meetings, though he did not name it, but it was widely interpreted as referring to Upbit. However, Kim Byung-ki has denied the conflict of interest allegations, emphasizing that his statements were based on principles opposing market monopolies and that his son's employment is "completely unrelated" to his legislative and regulatory activities.

Caixin: Digital Renminbi to Upgrade Plan, Wallet Balances to Earn Interest Starting January 1, 2026

The digital renminbi will undergo a plan upgrade, allowing wallet balances to earn interest starting January 1, 2026. Without changing the dual-layer operational structure, digital renminbi from bank-type operating institutions will move from off-balance sheet to on-balance sheet, changing from 100% reserve to partial reserve; non-bank payment institutions will implement 100% digital renminbi collateral. Banking institutions will pay interest on customer real-name digital renminbi wallet balances, adhering to self-regulatory agreements on deposit interest rate pricing, and can independently conduct asset-liability management for digital renminbi wallet balances, with deposit insurance providing the same safety guarantee as deposits. For non-bank payment institutions, digital renminbi collateral is indistinguishable from customer reserves.

Standard Chartered and Ant International Launch Commercial Blockchain Tokenized Deposit Solutions in Hong Kong and Singapore

Standard Chartered Bank and Ant International announced the official commercialization of blockchain-based tokenized deposit solutions in Hong Kong and Singapore, enabling 24/7 real-time fund transfers. The solution supports instant settlement in Hong Kong dollars, offshore renminbi, and U.S. dollars, aiming to enhance global fund and liquidity management efficiency for cross-regional enterprises. This solution was developed under the Project Ensemble led by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority and the distributed ledger technology regulatory sandbox framework, by tokenizing accounts on Ant International's Whale blockchain fund management platform to achieve near-real-time liquidity allocation between corporate entities in different regions. Standard Chartered stated that this solution breaks through traditional banking hours and settlement cycle limitations, meeting enterprises' demand for "instant liquidity"; Ant International noted that this collaboration deeply integrates its global payment and tokenization technology capabilities with Standard Chartered's banking system, further optimizing cross-border operating capital management. This launch is seen as an important milestone in promoting the application of tokenized assets under Project Ensemble and is expected to encourage more enterprises to explore the practical application of tokenized deposits in the region.

UK Financial Institutions: Stablecoin Regulatory Positioning and Payment Integration Will Be Core Topics in UK Crypto Regulation in 2026

UK financial institutions have recently reviewed the progress of crypto regulation in the UK for 2025 and projected key policy directions for 2026. UK Finance pointed out that over the past year, the UK has engaged in intensive discussions around topics such as stablecoins, crypto asset trading platforms (CATPs), and market manipulation prevention. The regulatory focus is gradually shifting from "unpegged crypto assets" to stablecoins backed by real-world assets. UK Finance stated that regulators are increasingly viewing stablecoins as tools with payment and currency attributes, rather than purely investment-type crypto assets. This classification will directly impact redemption timelines, KYC requirements, and compliance costs for issuers. They also warned that if the regulatory burden for pound stablecoins is higher than that for non-pound stablecoins issued overseas, it could lead to issuers relocating, weakening the UK's control over stablecoins and monetary policy. Furthermore, UK Finance noted that the core challenge in 2026 will be to balance encouraging innovation, protecting consumers, and maintaining the resilience of the financial system, including rules for the redemption of systemic stablecoins, multi-currency and multi-issuer structural designs, and the integration of stablecoins with traditional payment channels. As the UK's Financial Conduct Authority launches a regulatory sandbox for non-systemic stablecoins, the UK is entering the policy implementation phase. Whether the final regulatory framework can balance innovation and competitiveness will determine if London can maintain its status as an international financial center.

Analysis: Gold and Silver Prices Drop Sharply, Low Liquidity Warns of Continued Volatility

With silver's strong performance last week, it undoubtedly became the focus of attention. Rumors of short squeezes and margin calls triggered the last wave of price increases on Friday, but the market's atmosphere is now dissipating. Silver prices fell over $7 in a day, marking the largest nominal single-day drop in history. Precious metals are currently a sentiment-driven market, and gold also faced profit-taking today, dropping about 4% during the day. Analysts pointed out that we are currently in a tricky trading environment. Overall market liquidity is generally low, which often leads to unusually amplified price fluctuations. Hedge funds are reluctant to intervene against the trend to hedge against excessive market movements, and market makers are also limiting their participation.
