Zerohash files second OCC trust bank application

Zerohash submitted a second application for a U.S. national trust bank charter on Aug. 19, approximately one month after the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency returned its original filing.　　The OCCs record lists the proposed institution as Zerohash National Trust Bank. It would be based in Asheville, North Carolina, and operate under a holding company structure if approved.　　The regulator opened public comments on Aug. 18. Comments must arrive by Sept. 17, giving interested parties 30 days to respond. The public record currently lists the application as received. It does not show an approval, denial or other regulatory decision.　　Zerohash narrows its second OCC application　　The OCC received Zerohash‘s first charter application on March 2 and returned it on July 17. The agency’s public database does not explain which parts of the proposal prompted the return.　　A returned application is not the same as a denial on its merits. It generally means the filing did not advance through the OCCs review process in its submitted form. The regulator assigned the second application a new control number and proposed charter number.　　Zerohash previously said the initial return occurred “in coordination with the OCC” and was “not a substantive decision on the merits.” Those statements represent

US bank lobby wants stablecoin holders to open an account before cashing out

The American Bankers Association is pressing US regulators to require anyone who buys or redeems a payment stablecoin directly with its issuer to open an account and complete customer identification.　　For a holder coming from self-custody, that would turn a direct cash-out into an issuer-onboarding event.　　The Blockchain Association accepts identity checks for direct primary-market account customers but says an optional one-off redemption or a redemption routed through another regulated intermediary should not automatically make the underlying holder an issuer customer.　　The disagreement surfaced in comments on a joint federal proposal for stablecoin issuer customer identification programs, known as CIPs.　　The Federal Reserves public index lists the ABA comment as posted that day and the Blockchain Association comment as posted Aug. 24, alongside other R-1885 responses.　　The agencies eventual choice will determine whether asking an issuer for dollars always opens an account or whether some holders can redeem without establishing that relationship.　　The proposal leaves the cash-out boundary unresolved　　The June proposal would require permitted payment stablecoin issuers to operate a CIP for customers who open accounts. A CIP is the account-opening process used to collect and verify a customers identifying information.　　Directly issuing or redeeming payment stablecoins are among the activities the proposal says can establish an

WikiBit Exchange Exit Risk Ranking #9 — Deepcoin: Can El Salvador’s “Compliance New Clothes” Cover the Endless “Withdrawal Problems”?

Preface: A “Schrödinger‘s Compliance” Exchange　　In previous episodes, we dug into HashKey (the “compliance top student”), HTX (a sanctions hotspot), UZX (a DAO penny-stock style project), Phemex (the Wall Street elite team), Tapbit (the MSB license “sticker collector”), and Upbit (South Korea’s national exchange). Todays subject is even more surreal — Deepcoin.　　On paper, this platforms résumé looks impressive:　　“Ranked third in CoinGecko‘s derivatives rankings,” “serving more than 10 million users,” “covering 30+ countries,” “COBO custody + bank-level security” — doesn’t that sound like the profile of a top-tier exchange？ (Deepcoin)　　But on the other side of the story:　　WikiBit gives it a score of 6.67; Seychelles regulators allegedly issued a warning stating that they had “never received a license application from Deepcoin”; on Trustpilot, accusations such as “SCAM” and “fraud” appear frequently, while user complaints have reportedly increased in recent years, including withdrawal difficulties, account freezes, and high-volume trading traps.　　Today, we will tear apart Deepcoin‘s surface packaging and conduct a complete analysis of the platform’s real security foundation from seven key dimensions.1.

From a “European Established Compliant Exchange” to a “Withdrawal Hell”: Zondacrypto Collapse Exposes the Most Dangerous Illusion — A License ≠ Safety

As more and more small and mid-sized crypto exchanges disappear or collapse, many investors choose trading platforms based on a few simple questions:　　Is it compliant？　　Does it have a license？　　How long has it been operating？　　How many users does it have？　　However, the widely discussed Zondacrypto collapse has taught the crypto industry a painful lesson:　　The most dangerous exchanges are often not the small platforms that suddenly appear overnight — because users already know they look suspicious. The real danger comes from platforms hiding behind the image of “compliance, reputation, and a large user base.”　　After BitMart and BitMEX, two once-established crypto exchanges that faced shutdowns and major controversies, the spotlight has now turned to Zondacrypto — a long-standing European exchange once considered a compliant industry player.　　This means the worlds three major crypto markets — China, the United States, and Europe — have now all experienced major exchange failures.　　But Zondacryptos collapse introduced a new and disturbing twist:　　The founder allegedly disappeared years before the exchange collapsed.　　The platform continued operating as usual for years. Only when the massive funding gap became impossible to cover did the second-in-command CEO also disappear.　　This $650 million scandal, affecting tens of thousands of investors, has exposed major weaknesses in Europes crypto regulatory

How Ethereums new 2,048 ETH staking rule could lock up user rewards longer than expected

Ethereum is considering a change that would let compounding validators set how much $ETH should remain on a validator before excess rewards enter the networks automatic withdrawal sweep.　　An Aug. 20 edit to draft EIP-8148 lowered the proposals minimum custom threshold from 33 $ETH to 32 $ETH and added a way to set the initial threshold when a new validator is created. If activated, the proposal would let 0x02 validators select a level between 32 $ETH and the current 2,048 $ETH default. The change would affect reward-sweep timing while Ethereums existing exit rules continue to govern principal withdrawals.　　Ethereums 32 $ETH change controls reward-sweep timing　　Ethereum currently treats its two execution-address withdrawal credentials differently.　　Validators using legacy 0x01 credentials have a 32 $ETH effective-balance cap. Any balance above 32 $ETH is periodically swept to the withdrawal address, so those rewards stop compounding on the validator.　　Compounding 0x02 validators can increase their effective balance in 1 $ETH increments up to 2,048 $ETH. Under Ethereums current withdrawal-credential rules, their balance is automatically swept only after it exceeds 2,048 $ETH. Accessing $ETH below that level requires a manually requested partial withdrawal.Validator setupWhat happens to rewardsAutomatic sweep thresholdCurrent 0x01Excess rewards stop compounding once sweptAbove 32 $ETHCurrent 0x02Rewards compound in

Hyperliquid price eyes $97 as HYPE holds above $80

Hyperliquid price rose to a record high above $83 after a sharp weekly rally, with strong momentum and positive capital flows supporting the move.

Gemini plans to distribute crypto prediction markets through Apex brokerages

Crypto exchange Gemini and Apex Fintech Solutions have signed a non-binding letter of intent that would make Gemini Titan the exclusive regulated venue for crypto event contracts offered by brokerage firms through Apexs Futures Commission Merchant (FCM).　　Under the proposed arrangement, participating brokerages would use Gemini for execution and clearing, giving Gemini a new distribution channel for its prediction-market business.　　Apex provides trading and clearing infrastructure to hundreds of financial firms serving tens of millions of investors, according to the company. Gemini, meanwhile, has been building out its regulated prediction-market business since receiving approval by the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission to operate a designated contract market in December 2025 and clear derivatives in-house in April.　　The companies already work together on stock trading, with Apex Clearing providing custody and clearing for Geminis zero-commission US equities offering launched in July.　　The proposed partnership comes as prediction markets face mounting legal challenges at the state level in the US. Most recently, a Washington state judge ordered Kalshi to stop offering a broad range of event contracts in the state, rejecting the companys argument that federal commodities law preempts state gambling law.
