Ouinex Raises $9M From Traders and Opens Launchpad

Crypto asset exchange Ouinex has closed a $3.5 million equity round, bringing total funding to $9 million. The full amount came from retail and professional traders connected to its platform, with venture capital absent from the cap table.　　The company is also introducing Ouinex Launchpad, a token sale platform built around verified access, trader engagement, and loyalty.　　The announcement comes during a period of low trust across crypto trading venues. Many retail traders remain cautious about exchanges with business models tied to client losses. Ouinex is building around a different relationship between platform and user, with traders serving as both customers and shareholders.　　Ilies Larbi, CEO of Ouinex, said community funding has influenced how the company approaches regulation. He said user shareholders give Ouinex more room to invest in licensing and legal work across five continents, with long-term safety and platform durability guiding those decisions.　　Trader Capital Becomes Product Growth　　Ouinex began its community funding strategy in June 2023 with a $2 million pre-seed round backed by more than 2,000 traders. Many came from foreign exchange, CFDs, and equities.　　In February 2024, the company completed its seed and first private rounds, raising more than $4 million. A private allocation planned for four weeks sold out in

Tezos Tests Post-Quantum Privacy as Founder Slams Half-Baked Bitcoin Quantum Theories

Tezos launched TzEL, a post-quantum privacy system for blockchain payments on testnet.Arthur Breitman accused parts of the Bitcoin community of dismissing legitimate quantum risks.The project aims to protect encrypted blockchain transaction data from future decryption attacks.　　While practical quantum computers capable of breaking modern cryptography do not yet exist, Tezos co-founder Arthur Breitman said some pockets of the crypto industry are treating quantum computing like a conspiracy theory while ignoring a legitimate threat to blockchain privacy.　　The warning comes as Tezos launches TzEL, a post-quantum privacy system on testnet designed to protect private payments and encrypted transaction data from future “harvest now, decrypt later” attacks. Breitman said Tezos is acting with “a sense of urgency,” while parts of the industry remain complacent about quantum threats in his view.　　“Some projects are barely maintained and wont be upgraded at all; but the important ones will be upgraded, mostly in a timely fashion,” Breitman told Decrypt.　　Breitman took particular issue with some in the Bitcoin community promoting what he described as pseudo-scientific theories about quantum computing.　　“There are Bitcoiners being applauded on stages for half-baked crank theories about quantum mechanics that fly in the face of established physics,” he said.　　The cultural debate centers on whether blockchain networks

DTCC builds blockchain-based collateral system with Chainlink integration

The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation, the backbone of US securities settlement, is building a blockchain-native collateral management platform powered by Chainlink. The system, called the Collateral AppChain, is designed to handle asset pricing, valuation, and settlement around the clock across international markets.　　What DTCC is actually building　　The Collateral AppChain integrates Chainlinks Runtime Environment, known as CRE, to automate collateral workflows that have historically relied on manual processes. Instead of humans shuffling spreadsheets and making phone calls to verify asset values across time zones, smart contracts handle the pricing and settlement automatically.　　The platform is designed to operate 24/7, a meaningful departure from the traditional finance world where collateral management is typically constrained by business hours and geographic boundaries. The goal is near-real-time collateral movement across different blockchains and international markets.　　DTCC unveiled the initiative on May 12, 2026, during what the firm calls its Great Collateral Experiment. The Collateral AppChain is slated to launch in Q4 2026.　　Nadine Chakar, DTCCs Managing Director, framed the partnership around the transformative potential of unified onchain data. The vision is a shared infrastructure layer that multiple participants in the collateral ecosystem, think banks, asset managers, custodians, can plug into rather than each maintaining their own siloed systems.　　The

2026 Preakness Stakes Preview: Laurel Park Hosts Historic Running, Full Field Analysis

The 2026 Preakness Stakes will be contested at Laurel Park in the great state of Maryland for the first time ever. Historically run at Pimlico Race Course, also in Maryland, the second jewel in the Triple Crown series for three-year-old Thoroughbreds has been relocated this year due to renovations being made to this Baltimore oval.　　This 151st edition of one of the nations most historic races has a full field of fourteen colts bucking for their spot in the history books and their share of $2 million in purse money. A notable absentee from the group will be Kentucky Derby winner Golden Tempo as his connections have decided to bypass the race and await the Belmont Stakes on June 6.

That is great news for fans and the speculating public.　　A capacity field makes for great competition and hefty potential payouts for those who invest wisely. Let‘s take a look at the field and provide a thought on each. The runner’s will be listed by post position with trainer, jockey, and morning line. The

British Pound: Volatility focus shifts to politics – DBS

Finance　　British Pound: Volatility focus shifts to politics – DBS　　DBS Bank‘s Philip Wee reviews recent FX volatility through the Pound, noting that GBP has been more resilient than EUR and CHF since Operation Epic Fury, helped by the UK’s lower exposure to the energy shock and higher policy rates. However, he highlights that GBP has recently underperformed as markets refocus on UK political risks and reassess Bank of England tightening expectations.　　Pound resilience gives way to politics risk　　“Following the start of Operation Epic Fury, GBP (-1.9%) was more resilient than the EUR (-2.2%) and CHF (-3.8%) in March.”　　“In April, GBP (+2.9%) outperformed the CHF (+2.3%) and EUR(+1.5%).”　　“However, GBP (-0.6%) underperformed the EUR (-0.2%) and CHF(-0.1%) in the first half of May.”　　“Markets now see GBP facing a reality check as focus shifts from the US-Iran conflict to 10 Downing Street.”　　“In the end, the GBP‘s outlook remains tethered to the escalation or resolution of the Iran conflict, primarily because of how it dictates the USD’s strength.”　　“UK politics drives GBP when it threatens fiscal solvency in a major way, such as Lizz Trusss mini-budget crisis in 2022. Like it or not, GBP is still holding on to its post-Operation Epic Fury appreciation, in contrast to

BoE Considers Easing UK Stablecoin Caps After Industry Backlash

The central bank argued that limits were needed to avoid a sudden outflow of deposits from commercial banks into new forms of “tokenised” money if a large stablecoin were rapidly adopted for payments.　　Industry groups and prospective issuers countered that the caps were operationally cumbersome, hard to supervise across platforms, and could deter serious institutional use of regulated UK stablecoins in areas like corporate treasury, payroll and settlement.　　BoE rethinks stablecoin caps after pushback　　Breeden has been one of the most cautious voices on stablecoins within the BoE. In November 2025, she warned that diluting the rules too far could damage financial stability, stressing that stablecoins are money-like instruments that must be at least as safe and robust as existing payments infrastructure.　　At the time, she backed stringent liquidity requirements that would force stablecoin issuers to park large portions of their reserves at the central bank and hold the rest in high-quality liquid securities such as UK government bonds.　　Law firms and potential issuers argue that such a structure would significantly compress margins and make UK stablecoin issuance far less attractive than operating under the United States or European Union regimes.　　UK hunts for middle ground on stablecoins　　The shift in tone highlights how UK policymakers are

NVIDIA and Alphabet Surge While Bitcoin Awaits CLARITY Act

Bitcoin has already shown it can move into the same valuation conversation as mega-cap tech companies. In April 2025, Bitcoin became the fifth-largest global asset by market capitalization after surging above $94,000.　　Its valuation reached roughly $1.86 trillion at the time, briefly pushing it ahead of Alphabet, Googles parent company. The move came during improving risk sentiment tied to easing US-China trade tensions.　　The market environment differed from Bitcoin‘s earlier move above $109,000. Even though Bitcoin’s market cap had previously crossed $2 trillion, large tech stocks were trading at much higher valuations at that time, preventing BTC from overtaking them in the rankings.　　CLARITY Act Could Become the Next Trigger　　Crypto markets are closely watching the CLARITY Act as the Senate Banking Committee prepares for markup discussions.　　The bill is viewed as one of the largest attempts to establish federal market structure rules for digital assets in the United States. A positive outcome could reduce regulatory uncertainty around exchanges, custody, token classification, and institutional participation.　　If the CLARITY Act passes, Bitcoin could see increased institutional demand and capital inflows as regulatory uncertainty declines. Currently, BTC ranks as the 12th-largest asset globally. Bitcoin previously surpassed Alphabet during the 2025 rally, and some market participants believe clearer U.S.

Ethereum Leverage Tells Two Different Stories On Binance And OKX: Traders Face A Fragile Setup

Ethereum is consolidating between $2,250 and $2,450 as the market searches for the catalyst or the structural shift that forces a decisive move in either direction. The price is holding but not breaking — and CryptoQuant analyst MorenoDV has identified a divergence in the derivatives data across two of the largest exchanges in the world that adds a specific risk dimension to the current setup that most participants are not watching.　　The analysis examines the Estimated Leverage Ratio — the measure of how much derivatives exposure is being built on top of the ETH reserve base held by each exchange. A higher ratio does not automatically signal danger, but it does describe a more sensitive market structure: more open positions relative to available reserves means more potential volatility per unit of the underlying asset, and a lower tolerance for adverse price movements before liquidation dynamics begin to take hold.　　Since the October 10 crash, Binance‘s ETH reserves have declined approximately 5.9% — from 4.037 million to 3.8 million ETH. Over the same period, OKX reserves have collapsed by approximately 82.3%, falling from 861,000 to just 152,600 ETH. Despite that dramatic reserve reduction, OKX’s Estimated Leverage Ratio now sits at approximately 5.6 —
