According to Coinbase, Coinbase has announced the launch of pre-IPO perpetual contracts related to SpaceX, OpenAI, and Anthropic, allowing users to now leverage trading on these rocket companies that have not yet publicly traded their shares. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong launched an update called "All Things Exchange" on June 16th, integrating cryptocurrencies, stocks, prediction markets, and futures into a single account. This product allows ordinary investors to participate in investing in these most valuable startups without needing to be accredited. The pricing mechanism for pre-IPO perpetual contracts differs from traditional futures markets; Coinbase tracks the value of these companies through a constructed index or token. The launch of this contract marks a significant step for Coinbase in providing diversified investment opportunities.

According to a snapshot vote by the Lido DAO, Lido has revoked the official certification status of the wstETH bridge endpoints on nine networks: zkSync Era, Mode, Scroll, Mantle, Swell, Zircuit, Soneium, Polygon PoS, and Lisk. Users holding wstETH on these networks are safe and do not need to take any action. This revocation is a governance decision and will not disable any bridges, invalidate tokens, or affect users' ability to bridge wstETH back to Ethereum. Future proactive monitoring, marketing support, and ecosystem development for wstETH on the affected networks will cease. Related network information will be updated on the Lido multi-chain page, documentation, and help center.

According to CoinWorld, Wu has learned that Starkware, the company behind Starknet, has released a demo of Private KYC with Strk20, exploring confidential on-chain identity verification on Starknet. This solution allows users to scan their passports with their phones and read the NFC chip, then encrypt and bind their identity information to their Starknet account, submitting specific attributes, such as age (18 or older), to the blockchain using zero-knowledge proofs. Institutions can verify account eligibility without needing to possess complete identity data such as the user's name, date of birth, nationality, or identification number. Starkware states that this solution is currently a working demo showcasing ZooKeeper identity applications to government and institutional teams.

According to CoinWorld, analysts point out that the demand for memory driven by artificial intelligence could cause memory manufacturers' stocks to rise tenfold. Researcher Zeitgeist stated that current global demand for memory needed for AI far exceeds production capacity. He cited the example of a $50,000 investment in Micron stock last September, which is now worth approximately $489,000. Zeitgeist believes that memory manufacturers' stocks will be revalued based on real computing demand rather than historical highs. With the rise of AI agents, memory demand will increase dramatically, and it is projected that by 2026, global memory demand will be 60 times the production capacity. SK Hynix has surpassed Samsung to become the most valuable listed company in South Korea, demonstrating the enormous potential of the memory market.
