US Official: Trump Asks Negotiation Team to Pause Contact with Iran
On August 19, it was reported that a U.S. official stated that Trump has requested senior government envoys to pause contact with Iran. Additionally, a source revealed that White House officials have recently communicated a shift in their strategy towards Iran to political allies—moving from a focus on 'quickly striking Iran' to a long-term strategy of 'choking Iran's throat.' U.S. officials indicated that Trump has instructed his negotiation team, which includes Vice President Pence, Special Envoy Hook, and Trump's son-in-law Kushner, to temporarily refrain from engaging with Iran. This directive came after some 'positive discussions' had previously taken place between the U.S. and Iran. There has been no response from the Iranian side regarding this matter. -
SEC Approves Crypto Asset Regulation Proposal via Seriatim Voting
On August 19, a Fox Business crypto reporter posted on the X platform that, according to an SEC spokesperson, the committee approved the proposal through 'seriatim' voting, meaning that commissioners voted separately outside of a public meeting. The committee had originally scheduled to review the 'Regulation Crypto Assets' in a public meeting last Friday but abruptly canceled it citing 'unforeseen scheduling issues.' According to the disclosed details, the framework will allow certain crypto asset issuances to raise funds without SEC registration, including small-scale issuances of up to $5 million over four years or an annual issuance limit of up to $75 million. The proposal will also establish a conditional safe harbor mechanism for certain crypto assets. Once the 'core management efforts' of the issuer are completed, the relevant crypto assets may no longer be subject to the same securities regulatory constraints. -

The proposal includes specific requirements for issuers, such as submitting financial statements and meeting ongoing disclosure obligations, while establishing safe harbor provisions to exclude the relevant assets from the definition of 'investment contracts' under securities law. This proposal comes at a time when landmark cryptocurrency legislation is stalled in Congress, with the SEC Chair emphasizing the need to develop 'forward-looking' rules that can protect the digital asset industry, while legislative action remains essential. -
Spot Prices of Some Storage Chips Decline
On August 18, according to 21st Century Business Herald, an unusual signal has emerged since the second quarter of this year—some spot distributors of storage chips are willing to lower prices for certain models of NAND storage chips. Third-party organizations in the flash memory market have pointed out that since July, there has been a continuous low-price sales phenomenon for multi-brand eMMC products, leading to a significant price inversion between spot and contract prices, with the spot price of 64GB eMMC already showing a downward trend. eMMC is the standard storage chip for consumer electronics such as set-top boxes, smart TVs, and entry-level smartphones. Against the backdrop of overall high prosperity in the storage industry, this price inversion in this category is particularly striking. This actually indicates that the current storage chip market is heading towards a polarized situation: some consumer markets are facing a scenario where downstream customers cannot bear the price increase of chips, especially evident in the entry-level spot market, where in recent months, distributors have been willing to exchange price for volume to obtain cash flow; meanwhile, the price increase trend in the cloud-side AI or enterprise-level storage market continues, influenced to some extent by the signing of long-term contracts. -
