Ethena Labs announced in a post on X that StablecoinX, the ENA treasury, has raised an additional $530 million as part of its ENA accumulation strategy. StablecoinX has now raised approximately $895 million through PIPE financing and expects to hold over 3 billion ENA on its balance sheet upon completion. A subsidiary of the Ethena Foundation will use the proceeds from this PIPE to initiate a buyback program of approximately $310 million in ENA, expected to be executed by third-party market makers over the next six to eight weeks. The buyback represents approximately 13% of the circulating supply. This follows the completion of the first round of PIPE financing, which cumulatively purchased approximately 7.3% of the circulating supply. The newly added repurchase deployment plan is: when the ENA price is higher than US$0.70, US$5 million will be repurchased daily; when the price is lower than US$0.70 or falls by more than 5% within 24 hours, US$10 million will be repurchased daily.

In the first half of 2025, the Hanjiang District People's Court of Putian City, Fujian Province, heard and sentenced a virtual currency-related criminal case. Yan, Zheng, Lin, and others used USDT to establish an underground foreign exchange network, recruiting clients through overseas chat apps and illegally exchanging RMB for foreign currencies using "U-coins." The bank transactions involved exceeded 13.3 billion yuan, with illegal transactions totaling 25.62 million yuan. The gang withdrew over 478 million yuan in cash from banks in various locations, purchased "U-coins," and transferred them to wallets belonging to upstream criminals, using them to launder cross-border funds and profit from the proceeds. During the trial, prosecutors extracted voice recordings from a co-defendant's phone and verified them to match Lin's voiceprint, establishing a connection between him and the accounts involved. Ultimately, the court found their actions guilty of illegal business operations and aiding in information network criminal activities. Yan, Zheng, Lin, and 15 others were sentenced to prison terms ranging from eight months to three years and fined. (Putian.com)
