Clarity Act Advances, Opening a Major Growth Opportunity for the RWA Sector
VIPClarity Act Advances, Opening a Major Growth Opportunity for the RWA Sector

1. Clarity Act advances, opening a major growth opportunity for the RWA sector. The U.S. stablecoin regulatory bill made meaningful progress this week. As the compliance framework becomes clearer, institutional barriers for bringing traditional assets on-chain are being significantly reduced. RWA active market cap has reached $26.5B, covering 171 issuers, and the sector has entered an exponential growth phase since the second half of 2025. 2. OpenAI and SpaceX standing as key names to watch. preSPAX is up 32.7% after 27 days of trading, while preOPAI is up 18.6% just three days after launch, standing out against BTC's 4.8% decline over the same period. OpenAI's annualized revenue has surpassed $10B, while SpaceX's recent stock split has been seen as part of its IPO preparations. Both assets are backed by some of the world's fastest-growing private companies, and PreIPO offers a lower-cost window for early participation. 3. A strong dollar and rising energy prices drove markets this week, with crypto pulling back across the board despite improving underlying conditions. BTC fell 4.8% to $78,200, natural gas led gains at +7.4%, and the DXY rose 1.5%, weighing on non-USD assets. However, the global liquidity Z-score has turned positive, rising from negative territory to +0.15. This suggests the pullback was driven by short-term dollar strength rather than a deterioration in liquidity. The FOMC meeting minutes on Wednesday, May 20, will be the key turning point to watch next week. Assets to watch: ONDO / CFG / SKY (RWA), preSPAX / preOPAI (PreIPO), USOUSD (crude oil CFD), NVDA (earnings on May 20)

The BTC Whale Who Bought the Dip on October 11th is Still Holding Strong, Facing a 12x Unrealized Loss Compared to Initial Investment
BlockBeats News, May 18, according to Hyperinsight monitoring, address 0x860 has now become the largest underwater whale among BTC long positions on Hyperliquid. This whale bottomed BTC 220 days ago, specifically on October 11 last year, after the market crash, entering with a 29x leverage position at an average price of $109,632, with a position size of $13.2 million. Initially, this long position brought significant unrealized gains to the whale within 10 days. However, since BTC fell below its average entry price on October 30 last year, the position has never returned to break-even. As of the time of writing, the whale has still not closed the position and has been holding on, with the current unrealized loss reaching $3.94 million, approximately 12 times the initial investment. Estimates indicate that considering the multimillion-dollar overall fund size of this address, the $13.2 million position corresponds to an actual leverage ratio of only about 1.1x. However, the unrealized loss has already eroded about 30% of its total funds. Address: 0x8607a7d180de23645db594d90621d837749408d5
