IRGC: Ready to Inflict a Crushing Defeat on Enemies

On June 19, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) issued a statement today, asserting that the remarks made by Iran's Supreme Leader Mujtaba regarding the Iran-U.S. memorandum of understanding "further solidified the united front of the Iranian people, enabling them and the armed forces to more resolutely safeguard the achievements of victory, and providing invaluable resources for Iranian politicians in their pursuit of national rights." The statement indicated that the aggressors have faced defeat on the battlefield — they once threatened to "wipe Iran off the map" and "send Iran back to the Stone Age," but now they are "desperately retreating to the point of begging for understanding and negotiation," bowing their heads before the Iranian people. The statement warned that if the enemies attempt to make unreasonable demands again, infringing upon the rights of the Iranian nation as they have in the past, the IRGC will be fully prepared to respond with even greater strength across land, sea, air, and all hybrid warfare domains — ready to deliver a more devastating historical defeat to the enemies as soon as the Supreme Leader gives the order.

  • CFTC and SEC Seek Public Input to Clarify 'Swaps' Regulatory Definition

    On June 19, in the context of related litigation at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) jointly issued a public request for comments, planning to update and clarify the definitions and regulatory interpretations of certain derivative products. This inquiry covers a wide range of topics, including the definition of 'swaps', the definition of 'security-based swaps', and the delineation of the exemptions applicable to these definitions. The two agencies are also seeking public input on the regulatory treatment of new or emerging financial products, which may include event contracts on prediction market platforms and perpetual futures/perpetual contracts. CFTC Chairman Michael S. Selig stated in a press release: 'Today's joint public request for comments provides an opportunity to address the long-standing regulatory ambiguities in Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Act. These ambiguities have been hindering fair competition and responsible innovation.' According to Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Act, the CFTC has regulatory authority over swap products, except for security-based swaps. SEC Chairman Paul Atkins also noted in a statement that clarifying certain definitions has become urgent, particularly regarding the regulatory classification of event-driven products.

  • Oaktree Capital Founder: Cautionary Investors May Miss Historic Investment Opportunities

    On June 18, Howard Marks, co-founder of Oaktree Capital, discussed whether the current market is experiencing 'irrational exuberance' and the opportunities and risks under the AI investment boom in a recent podcast. He noted that the current market can be described using Alan Greenspan's words from 30 years ago; we are in a 'boom,' but no one can definitively say whether it is 'irrational.' Using SpaceX's impending IPO with a valuation of nearly $2 trillion as an example, he stated that deciding whether to participate and at what price is purely a matter of 'guessing,' and cannot be calculated like traditional value investing. Howard mentioned his favorite saying: 'Cautious individuals struggle to achieve great things.' He pointed out a current investment dilemma: investing in tech giants may lead to significant mistakes, but it can also yield remarkable successes. Those who hesitate out of fear of risk may miss out on the greatest investment opportunity in human history. In contrast, investors in traditional industries such as transportation, retail distribution, and real estate are unlikely to make catastrophic investment errors, but they also cannot seize the monumental benefits of this transformative era. In terms of valuation, Howard provided a key reference: the current price-to-earnings ratio of the S&P 500 is about 23 times, which is approximately 50% higher than the 80-year average of 16 times, but far lower than the 32 times during the 2000 internet bubble and below the 60 to 90 times level of the 'Nifty Fifty' era, indicating that overall it is 'high but not out of control.' Regarding AI investments, he proposed a three-tiered investment strategy: investing in large-scale tech companies is a low-risk approach due to their established business and cash flow; investing in vertical AI companies like Anthropic and OpenAI carries higher risks but also a higher probability of survival; while investing in early-stage startups is akin to gambling, where most will lose everything, but a few will become extremely wealthy. He advised investors to choose where they want to invest on the risk spectrum, mix different positions along the spectrum, and then determine what proportion these companies should represent in their overall investment portfolio.

  • Ethereum Foundation Co-Executive Director Hsiao-Wei Wang Announces Resignation

    Hsiao-Wei Wang, Co-Executive Director of the Ethereum Foundation, issued a statement announcing her decision to formally resign from her positions as Co-Executive Director and board member of the Ethereum Foundation, effective immediately after her leave. Wang stated that her time off allowed her to reassess her personal priorities and future plans, leading her to step back at this juncture and dedicate more time to her family and personal life. In her statement, Wang reflected on her contributions to the Ethereum ecosystem over the past decade, emphasizing that the true strength of Ethereum comes from the decentralized infrastructure maintained by global developers, researchers, validators, node operators, and community builders, rather than any single role or organization. She noted that although she is leaving the foundation's management, she will continue to support ecosystem development as a community member. Vitalik Buterin subsequently expressed his gratitude, stating that Wang has been one of the most steadfast contributors to the Ethereum ecosystem over the past ten years, not only advancing research and consensus mechanisms but also establishing an active local community in Taipei, Taiwan. Vitalik remarked that during a critical transformation period for Ethereum, Wang took on the foundation's most challenging management responsibilities and completed her mission with a high degree of professionalism and prudence.
