Odaily reports that Jenny Johnson, CEO of asset management giant Franklin Templeton, stated at the TOKEN2049 Singapore conference that tokenized funds launched by many competitors are merely digital replicas of traditional financial products and do not truly leverage blockchain's advantages in efficiency and settlement.Johnson said that Franklin Templeton's BENJI fund directly uses a public chain to record asset ownership, enabling per-second yield calculation, with a single transaction cost of approximately $1.13, compared to approximately $150 for traditional methods.BENJI was launched in 2021 and is the first registered mutual fund in the United States to use a public chain to record ownership. The total scale of related tokenized money market funds is currently estimated to have reached $2.5 billion.However, the Stellar public chain where BENJI was initially deployed experienced a state archival vulnerability in 2025, resulting in anomalies in 478 on-chain data records.

Odaily News: The Hyperliquid Policy Committee has submitted feedback in response to the European Commission's targeted consultation on the evolution of the MiCA framework. This marks its first policy submission outside the United States. The committee called on the EU to make moderate calibrations based on the existing financial regulatory framework, adhere to the classification principles of technological neutrality and economic substance, and recommended incorporating onchain perpetual contracts into the MiFID II regulatory framework through existing ESMA guidance.The Hyperliquid Policy Committee stated that onchain perpetual contracts are matched through public central limit order books and should not mechanically apply retail restrictions targeting traditional contracts for difference. At the same time, it said regulators should recognize the public and transparent verifiability of public chains, exempt regulated institutions from duplicative reporting burdens for publicly available onchain data, and ensure that EU investors can access global liquidity.

Odaily reports: The privacy-focused public chain Zano team has stated that in response to the inflation vulnerability discovered last Friday, a hotfix has been deployed, and the network is now running stably on the updated chain. The chain previously rolled back the block height to 3,833,000, erasing 30 days of previously confirmed transaction records.The Zano team stated that third-party wallets, exchanges, and payment service providers must first update their own nodes to the updated chain before they can safely resume transfers of ZANO and Zano-issued assets. Service providers will announce recovery progress through official channels, and recovery procedures for affected users are being prepared.The native asset ZANO has dropped 32% in price this week and 40.6% since the start of 2026. Zano's official X account stated that users can update their iOS, Android, and desktop wallets, and the team will soon release more details on the recovery process. (Bitcoin.com News)

Odaily reports: QNT has recently become a market focal point, with the main catalyst likely coming from The Clearing House selecting Quant to provide technical support for a tokenized bank deposit network.According to related discussions, the network has gained support from 25 major U.S. banks, with Quant taking on the role of interoperability and orchestration layer; in the U.K., seven banks including HSBC, Barclays, and Standard Chartered are also said to have completed real tokenized deposit transactions through Quant. The market interprets such partnerships as the realization of demand for traditional financial assets going on-chain, driving QNT up about 158% in a week, with its price surging from around $70 to near $370 at one point.Another view holds that Quant's value lies not in public chain traffic, but in the middleware and interoperability capabilities required for interbank asset tokenization. As Fusion nodes and real transaction volumes increase, QNT's value capture as a native staking asset still warrants further observation.Some traders attribute this rally to institutional narrative combined with a liquidity vacuum, while others warn that the rapid price pullback means the risk of chasing the rally has clearly risen.

According to Odaily, Binance Chinese stated on X that Binance Wallet now supports paying Gas fees with USDT, covering BNB Smart Chain, Ethereum, Solana, and TRON, with more public chain networks to be supported in the future.
