Australian Court Exempts Block Earner from Penalty in Lawsuit for Unlicensed Crypto Yield Offering
The Federal Court of Australia has waived a fine against fintech entreprise Block Earner after ruling that it offered a cryptocurrency yield product without a financial services license.
On June 4, Judge Ian Jackman ruled that Block Earner “acted in good faith” and that it did consider obtaining a license when its income product “Earner” was launched, but its research and legal advice showed that a license was not required.
Block Earner founder and CEO Charlie Karaboga said getting a legal opinion before launching the product “showed that we acted honestly and did everything we could as a startup.”
The judge rejected a $234,000 (AUD350,000) fine requested by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC). ASIC said in a press release on June 4 that it is reviewing the decision. (Cointelegraph)

New South Korean Law Requires Crypto Deposits to Pay Interest
A new South Korean law will require banks to pay interest on deposits from cryptocurrency exchanges, which could severely impact KBank’s profits. KBank currently has $3.6 billion in deposits from major cryptocurrency exchange Upbit, accounting for more than 20% of its customer balances. Under the new law, if the interest rate is set at 1%, KBank will need to pay about 50 billion won ($36 million) in interest, which is equivalent to its current profits. The law will take effect in July 2024, and the timing is particularly unfavorable for KBank as it prepares to go public. Upbit is the largest cryptocurrency exchange in South Korea, and other South Korean banks do not have significant exposure to cryptocurrency deposits.

FTX: Plans to pay more than $200 million in taxes to the IRS, not $24 billion
FTX plans to pay the IRS $200 million in priority tax debts and $685 million in subordinate tax claims, according to a June 3 legal filing. Priority tax claims, such as taxes, are payments that must be paid before other debts, while subordinate claims are paid only after priority obligations are satisfied.
FTX argued in bankruptcy court that the amount it owed was far less than the $24 billion the IRS claimed. Previously, the IRS claimed FTX owed $44 billion in taxes, but later lowered the amount to $24 billion.
The FTX debtors, who managed the company during its bankruptcy, believe that the IRS incorrectly included funds misappropriated by Sam Bankman-Fried and other tax liabilities in its calculations. The IRS disagrees with the debtors’ arguments and plans to seek a large tax liability if a settlement cannot be reached. The objection deadline in the case is June 17, with a hearing date of June 25, 2024.

Bankless hosted a debate yesterday between renowned Ethereum developer Justin Ðrake and Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko.
In response to the views of both parties, Hayden Adams, founder of Uniswap, said that he agreed with Justins point that future transaction demand will far exceed our imagination today. The future will not be dominated by a single state machine; he agreed with Anatolys point that the biggest problem facing Ethereum is the uncertainty of the long-term value of DA and the uncertainty of ETHs vision of ultrasonic currency.
Odaily Note: Ultrasonic currency is a meme concept in the Ethereum ecosystem, which mainly emphasizes the deflationary nature of ETH.

Glassnode: Bitcoin active addresses drop to 5-year low
Glassnode data shows that Bitcoins active addresses have fluctuated significantly recently. After the halving in April 2024, the number of active addresses has dropped significantly due to soaring transaction fees and network congestion. This increase in fees, partly due to the emergence of new protocols such as Runes, has affected Bitcoins utility in daily transactions, resulting in a significant drop in network activity.
Historically, active addresses have been a reliable indicator of market phases. For example, data from 2022 shows that active addresses have stagnated, consistent with the typical bear market pattern observed in past cycles. Bitcoins market forces are cyclical, often with periods of reduced activity followed by renewed activity as market conditions improve.
However, it is worth mentioning that although the current number of active addresses has dropped to the lowest point since 2019, Bitcoin has returned to near its historical high. (CryptoSlate)

Tether CEO: EU MiCA regulations contain some problematic requirements
Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino said the EUs regulated Market in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulations contain several problematic requirements. He said: These requirements may not only make the work of stablecoin issuers extremely complicated, but also make EU-licensed stablecoins extremely vulnerable and with higher operational risks. As with any regulatory framework of this scale, further discussion of technical implementation standards is essential to give the market clarity on certain regulations. Under MiCA, to become a regulated stablecoin provider in the EU, issuers must have an Electronic Money Institution (EMI) license. Ardoino said Tether has had extensive engagement with its European exchange counterparties on the relevant requirements, including those related to the continued listing of USDt and other Tether tokens, as well as interpretation of key regulatory terms.

Binance released an update on the browser plug-in that caused the asset hack, saying that the user had issued the latest clarification, and there were two misunderstandings: Binance was indeed unaware of the plug-in in advance, and the KOL was not Binances undercover.
