BNB Chain Builds Its Fourth Chain for Artificial Intelligence Trading

<p class="text-left mb-4 "><a href="https://jrkripto.com/tr/chains/binance-smart-chain" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer" class="text-primary underline">BNB Chain </a>is working on a new layer-1 blockchain designed for agent-based trading and transactions. The project aims to bring transaction pre-confirmation below 50 milliseconds and make front-running attacks harder by operating without a public mempool.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">The new chain will run alongside the existing BNB Chain infrastructure. According to The Block, the project is part of a technical roadmap covering the second half of 2026. It has been under development for months and is now being shared in this level of detail for the first time. The testnet is planned for the end of 2026, while the mainnet is expected to go live in the first months of 2027.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">The goal of the project is to offer an experience close to centralized exchanges while allowing users to retain control of their own assets when trading on a decentralized platform.</p><h2 class="text-left text-foreground text-3xl font-bold mb-3 mt-1">The Gap With Centralized Exchanges Is Not Closing, but It Is Narrowing</h2><p class="text-left mb-4 ">BNB Chain Chief Technology Officer David Z said a centralized matching engine can operate within microseconds, but no real-world trader actually feels that speed. According to him, round-trip times for co-located market makers remain in the single-digit millisecond range, while the delay is even longer for other users. A pre-confirmation time below 50 milliseconds matches the range that a typical exchange user actually experiences.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">Z acknowledged that centralized exchanges still lead in co-located high-frequency trading. “For co-located HFT, CEX still wins today. For everyone else, this is a CEX-like experience without custody risk,” he said.</p><h2 class="text-left text-foreground text-3xl font-bold mb-3 mt-1">Mempool-Free Architecture</h2><p class="text-left mb-4 ">A feature called TxStream routes transactions directly to the block leader instead of sending them to a public mempool. According to Z, this removes the window in which an attacker could see a pending transaction and build a sandwich attack around it, because ordering is locked before the transaction becomes publicly known.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">This design raises the question of whether the block leader itself creates a monopoly or censorship risk. Z said validators rotate every 200 milliseconds and that this period is not long enough for any validator to build a business around its position. “TxStream does not eliminate MEV. Nothing can. It makes the dominant attack types practically ineffective,” he said.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">A second component called PriorityLane reserves block space for oracle, liquidation and bridge transactions through an on-chain managed mechanism.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">BNB Chain said it is targeting more than 100,000 transactions per second and sub-second block finality through jointly optimized consensus, parallel execution and LtHash-based storage. These figures are still targets for a chain that has not yet reached testnet.</p><h2 class="text-left text-foreground text-3xl font-bold mb-3 mt-1">The Bottleneck Is in the Execution Layer</h2><p class="text-left mb-4 ">Z said the performance gap is not in consensus or storage, but in the execution layer. He noted that popular smart contracts, such as a DEX swap or a token transfer, repeat the same operations millions of times. As a solution, the team is highlighting just-in-time compilation, known as JIT, and strength reduction methods, techniques that have been used in software development for decades.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">Regarding the risk that the new chain could split liquidity with BSC, Z said an official native bridge will connect it to BSC, that BSC will remain the settlement hub, and that BNB will function as a unified asset across all chains. The new chain will become the fourth member of the BNB Chain family after BNB Smart Chain, opBNB and Greenfield.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">The roadmap comes amid a broader competitive landscape in which projects such as Solana’s Firedancer, Monad and MegaETH are also trying to overcome execution-layer bottlenecks.</p><h2 class="text-left text-foreground text-3xl font-bold mb-3 mt-1">Quantum Security and H1 Data</h2><p class="text-left mb-4 ">BNB Chain is also running quantum-resistant security tests. Instead of replacing existing cryptography, the project is following a hybrid approach that adds a post-quantum protection layer on top of it. Z said no one in the industry has a full quantum migration plan yet, and that BNB Chain is no exception. He added that the lattice-based LtHash structure used for chain state integrity is already post-quantum today.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">Updating the signature scheme without changing wallet addresses is a harder problem. Z described the “harvest-now-decrypt-later” scenario as an open issue for the entire industry. If the public key of any account has been exposed, that account could theoretically be at risk once a sufficiently powerful quantum computer emerges.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">The roadmap also included data on BNB Smart Chain’s performance in the first half of 2026. The block interval dropped to 450 milliseconds, while reference throughput nearly doubled to approximately 5,200 transactions per second.</p>

Bitcoin Slips Slightly Ahead of Fed Minutes

<p class="text-left mb-4 ">The U.S. Federal Reserve will release the minutes of its June 16-17 meeting today, Wednesday, at 2:00 p.m. ET. For those expecting a rate hike in September, the text may offer less than they hope.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">Chair Kevin Warsh did not share his own rate projection during this period. The post-meeting statement was only 130 words long, and forward guidance was removed entirely. That leaves the minutes as the only detailed record available on the debate inside the committee.</p><h2 class="text-left text-foreground text-3xl font-bold mb-3 mt-1">A committee split between hawks and doves</h2><p class="text-left mb-4 ">The FOMC held rates steady at a range of 3.50% to 3.75% on June 17. It was the fourth consecutive hold. Nine of the 18 members projected at least one rate hike for 2026, while Warsh did not put forward his own forecast.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">The committee held this meeting before the Bureau of Labor Statistics released the June jobs report. The report showed only 57,000 new jobs, marking the weakest reading in four months. Any hawkish tone in the minutes may still reflect a labor market that looked strong at the time. The weaker picture emerged only days later.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">The CME FedWatch tool currently prices the probability of a September rate hike in the 50% to 55% range. Before the weak employment data, that probability stood at 66%. Warsh addressed the issue directly at his press conference. He said inflation had remained above the Fed’s 2% target for more than five years and that this was a burden for the American people, while also adding that the recent past does not have to determine the future.</p><h2 class="text-left text-foreground text-3xl font-bold mb-3 mt-1">Silence itself becomes the story</h2><p class="text-left mb-4 ">Since taking office, Warsh has pushed for a simpler communication style. In his view, forward guidance makes the Fed more dependent on markets than on the data it is supposed to respond to.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">This preference makes Wednesday’s release unusually important, because there is no previous statement text to compare it with. Speaking at the Sintra forum in July, Warsh clarified his stance on inflation: investors should not expect the Fed under his leadership to become comfortable with inflation above 2%.</p><h2 class="text-left text-foreground text-3xl font-bold mb-3 mt-1">Bitcoin feels the weight of rate uncertainty</h2><p class="text-left mb-4 ">Crypto markets are already reacting to this uncertainty. <a href="https://jrkripto.com/tr/coin/btc" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer" class="text-primary underline">Bitcoin </a>recently slipped to $61,766, losing close to 1%. Ethereum, XRP and Solana also fell between 1% and 2.3%.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 "> <figure class="my-6"> <img src="https://minio-api-1.jrkripto.com/blog/btcusdt-2026-07-08-12-25-52-a96543d3.webp" alt="BTCUSDT_2026-07-08_12-25-52.png" width="auto" height="auto" class="w-full rounded-lg border" /> </figure> </p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">The sell-off is not driven by rate uncertainty alone. WTI crude futures rose more than 2% to $72.27, while the dollar index held above the 101 level. A stronger dollar and rising inflation expectations are pushing investors toward safer assets such as bonds, while drawing them away from riskier instruments like Bitcoin.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">If the minutes show how close the hawkish wing came to supporting a rate hike in June, this cautious mood in the crypto market may continue. Signals on the September rate decision will matter not only for bond and currency markets, but also for Bitcoin investors.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">A Fed led by a chair who prefers silence may leave both stock and crypto investors waiting for real clarity even after Wednesday.</p>

Coinbase Suspends Trading for 5 Altcoins, Adds 1 Altcoin to Its Roadmap

<p class="text-left mb-4 ">Coinbase announced that it will suspend trading for IDEX, Loopring (LRC), Omni Network (OMNI), Pirate Nation (PIRATE), and StaFi (FIS). On the same day, the exchange added the GRVT token to its listing roadmap.</p><h2 class="text-left text-foreground text-3xl font-bold mb-3 mt-1">Countdown Begins for Five Tokens</h2><p class="text-left mb-4 "><a href="https://jrkripto.com/tr/exchanges/coinbase-exchange" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer" class="text-primary underline">Coinbase </a>Markets will suspend spot trading for five assets on August 7, 2026, at around 2:00 p.m. ET. The exchange described the move as the result of a routine review, but did not specify which criteria each asset failed to meet.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 "> <figure class="my-6"> <img src="https://minio-api-1.jrkripto.com/blog/ekran-g-r-nt-s-2026-07-08-103032-940bf4c0.webp" alt="Ekran görüntüsü 2026-07-08 103032.png" width="auto" height="auto" class="w-full rounded-lg border" /> </figure> </p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">The market reaction was not evenly distributed. StaFi (FIS) and Pirate Nation (PIRATE) fell by more than 20%, while LRC and OMNI dropped between 10% and 15%. IDEX, however, did not see a sharp move. In low-volume tokens, it is not surprising that selling pressure is reflected in prices more quickly.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">There is also a separate detail on the Loopring side. Shortly before Coinbase’s announcement, the project shut down its own decentralized exchange, Loopring DEX, citing low usage. The two developments came back to back, and part of the decline in LRC likely stems from this.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">Coinbase stated that the suspended tokens will remain in users’ wallets and that withdrawals will not be blocked. Orders will move to limit-only mode: market orders will be disabled, users will only be able to place and cancel limit orders, and matching orders will still be executed.</p><h2 class="text-left text-foreground text-3xl font-bold mb-3 mt-1">GRVT Added to the Roadmap</h2><p class="text-left mb-4 ">On the same day, Coinbase added the GRVT token to its official listing roadmap. GRVT is a hybrid derivatives exchange built on zkSync infrastructure, offering self-custody. It aims to combine the speed of a centralized exchange with the transparency of decentralized finance, while enabling trading without gas fees.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 "> <figure class="my-6"> <img src="https://minio-api-1.jrkripto.com/blog/ekran-g-r-nt-s-2026-07-08-102622-ec8d44a6.webp" alt="Ekran görüntüsü 2026-07-08 102622.png" width="auto" height="auto" class="w-full rounded-lg border" /> </figure> </p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">The GRVT token was launched after the second season ended in late June 2026. Its total supply is fixed at 1 billion tokens, while the community and airdrop allocation was increased to 28%. The token unlocks membership benefits such as trading fee discounts, margin efficiency, and priority access to investment vaults.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">The platform’s growth figures also appear to support the listing decision. During its second season, GRVT’s total value locked (TVL) rose from $11.3 million to $107.1 million, marking an 847% increase. Open interest climbed to $484.1 million, while cumulative two-sided trading volume reached $393 billion. In January 2026, monthly trading volume rose to $51.6 billion, while the number of active users increased by 76% to more than 10,000. This picture summarizes GRVT’s transformation from a niche perp DEX into a platform that caught Coinbase’s attention.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">Being added to the roadmap does not automatically mean a listing. However, GROVE, which was added to the same list last week, gained more than 25% after spot trading opened. A similar scenario is expected for GRVT.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">Coinbase also shared GRVT’s Ethereum network (ERC-20) contract address: 0xAD29F2723fcdBcF665F210F25E06f97477e417cF.</p>

Vanguard, Managing $12 Trillion, Builds Crypto Department

<p class="text-left mb-4 ">Vanguard, the world’s second-largest asset manager, has started looking for an executive who will build its cryptocurrency strategy from the ground up. According to a job posting published on the company’s careers page on July 6, the role will be responsible for creating a digital asset roadmap for Vanguard’s personal wealth management clients.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">For the company, which manages a $12 trillion portfolio, this marks the first example of a senior-level appointment specifically focused on crypto. The posting was listed under job code 179858 and offers a hybrid working model across Vanguard’s Malvern, Dallas, Scottsdale and Charlotte offices.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 "> <figure class="my-6"> <img src="https://minio-api-1.jrkripto.com/blog/ekran-g-r-nt-s-2026-07-07-182456-725e2823.webp" alt="Ekran görüntüsü 2026-07-07 182456.png" width="auto" height="auto" class="w-full rounded-lg border" /> </figure> </p><h2 class="text-left text-foreground text-3xl font-bold mb-3 mt-1">Executive Will Engage With Regulators</h2><p class="text-left mb-4 ">The person hired for the role will work as a senior subject matter expert on digital assets within Vanguard’s personal wealth division. The scope of responsibility will not be limited to product development. Risk management and communication with regulatory authorities will also be part of the job description. According to internal sources, the executive’s main goal will be to build a scalable, end-to-end strategy.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">The move stands in contrast to Vanguard’s previous stance on crypto. When spot Bitcoin ETFs launched in January 2024, the company did not allow these products to be traded on its own platform. For a long time, executives described crypto assets as speculative.</p><h2 class="text-left text-foreground text-3xl font-bold mb-3 mt-1">Shift Began After New CEO Took Over</h2><p class="text-left mb-4 ">The picture changed in December 2025. Vanguard opened its platform to third-party crypto ETFs and mutual funds. The decision gave more than 50 million brokerage clients access to funds that include Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP and Solana.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">Behind this shift was Salim Ramji, who became CEO in July 2024 and was the first person appointed to lead the company from outside Vanguard. Ramji previously ran BlackRock’s iShares unit, which launched the iShares Bitcoin Trust. That fund had reached nearly $54 billion in assets under management as of March 31. Vanguard also became the largest shareholder of Strategy, the biggest Bitcoin treasury company, last year.</p><h2 class="text-left text-foreground text-3xl font-bold mb-3 mt-1">No Plan Yet for Its Own ETF</h2><p class="text-left mb-4 ">Still, Vanguard has not yet filed for its own crypto ETF. The company’s published investment guidance continues to prioritize assets with transparent cash flows and offers crypto exposure only through third-party products, similar to gold. BlackRock and Fidelity, meanwhile, operate their own spot Bitcoin funds. Competition among issuers has pushed fee rates down to as low as 0.14%.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">Client demand is also supported by concrete data. U.S.-based spot <a href="https://jrkripto.com/tr/coin/btc" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer" class="text-primary underline">Bitcoin </a>ETFs reached $74.37 billion in net assets as of July 2. On the same day, the funds recorded $221.72 million in inflows after a 10-day outflow streak. At the time of writing, total net assets had risen to $77.32 billion.</p>

Binance Delists Five Trading Pairs as 10 New Assets Enter Collateral List

<p class="text-left mb-4 ">Binance published two separate announcements today. While the exchange said it will remove five low-volume spot trading pairs on July 10, it also added 10 new bStocks tokens as collateral assets in margin accounts.</p><h2 class="text-left text-foreground text-3xl font-bold mb-3 mt-1">Five spot pairs to be removed on July 10</h2><p class="text-left mb-4 "><a href="https://jrkripto.com/tr/exchanges/binance" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer" class="text-primary underline">Binance </a>announced that it will remove five spot trading pairs from the platform following its periodic review process. The decision will take effect on July 10, 2026, at 06:00 TRT.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">The pairs to be delisted are GMX/USDC, PARTI/FDUSD, RUNE/BTC, SEI/BTC and T/USDC. Binance cited low liquidity and weak trading volume in these pairs as the reason for the decision.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 "> <figure class="my-6"> <img src="https://minio-api-1.jrkripto.com/blog/ekran-g-r-nt-s-2026-07-07-165739-1b29eb3a.webp" alt="Ekran görüntüsü 2026-07-07 165739.png" width="auto" height="auto" class="w-full rounded-lg border" /> </figure> </p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">The removal of a trading pair does not mean that the relevant token is being fully delisted from the exchange. GMX, PARTI, RUNE, SEI and T will remain listed on Binance; users will still be able to buy and sell these assets through other trading pairs already available on the platform.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">There is also a separate warning for users running Spot Trading Bots on the affected pairs. Binance will terminate bot services linked to these pairs at the same time, on July 10 at 06:00 TRT. The exchange urged users to update or cancel their bots before the deadline to avoid potential losses.</p><h2 class="text-left text-foreground text-3xl font-bold mb-3 mt-1">10 bStocks tokens added as margin collateral</h2><p class="text-left mb-4 ">On the same day, Binance issued a second announcement. The exchange added 10 new bStocks tokens to the list of collateral assets available for Cross Margin, Portfolio Margin and Portfolio Margin Pro accounts. The change went into effect on July 7, 2026, at 16:30 TRT.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">The newly added tokens include Alphabet (GOOGLB), Qualcomm (QCOMB), Coinbase (COINB), State Street SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPYB), Western Digital (WDCB), Corning (GLWB), Nebius (NBISB), Semicon Bull 3X ETF (SOXLB), Roundhill Memory ETF (DRAMB) and Cerebras (CBRSB). The corresponding bStocks trading pairs for these tokens were also opened for margin trading.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">For now, these 10 assets can only be used as collateral, while borrowing is not supported. The feature is also not available to everyone. Only users at VIP 3 level or above, and in permitted regions, can use these assets as collateral.</p><p class="text-left mb-4 ">bStocks is Binance’s tokenized stock product offered under a prospectus approved by ADGM, the Abu Dhabi Global Market. These products are offered only within the scope of ADGM and are not publicly offered in any other jurisdiction. Access to tokenized securities is available only to eligible users in permitted regions and only through the secondary market.</p>
