THE Senate agriculture committee on Wednesday cited Chinese trader Shi Chaoqun in contempt for allegedly lying about having no government contacts who had helped him smuggle agricultural products into the Philippines.

Senator Francis Pancratius N. Pangilinan said Mr. Shi’s explanation was insufficient, while Senator Erwin T. Tulfo accused him of lying under oath about how he was able to run a trading business in the country despite not speaking Filipino and claiming to have no local contacts.

“We are being fooled. He says he conducts business here, but he is Chinese, and he insists he has no local contact,” Mr. Tulfo said.

Speaking through an interpreter, Mr. Shi said he never communicated with government offices. “I cannot communicate with them. How do I communicate with them if I don’t need them?” he asked.

Authorities earlier tagged Mr. Shi as a lessee of a freezer in a Cavite cold storage facility raided for storing allegedly smuggled frozen goods. — Adrian H. Halili

Why It Could Outperform Pepe Coin And Tron With Over $7m Already Raised

The post Why It Could Outperform Pepe Coin And Tron With Over $7m Already Raised appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News 17 September 2025 | 20:26 While meme tokens like Pepe Coin and established networks such as Tron attract headlines, many investors are now searching for projects that combine innovation, revenue-sharing and real-world utility. BlockchainFX ($BFX), currently in presale at $0.024 ahead of an expected $0.05 launch, is quickly becoming one of the best cryptos to buy today. With $7m already secured and a unique model spanning multiple asset classes, it is positioning itself as a decentralised super app and a contender to surpass older altcoins. Early Presale Pricing Creates A Rare Entry Point BlockchainFX’s presale pricing structure has been designed to reward early participants. At $0.024, buyers secure a lower entry price than later rounds, locking in a cost basis more than 50% below the projected $0.05 launch price. As sales continue to climb beyond $7m, each new stage automatically increases the token price. This built-in mechanism creates a clear advantage for early investors and explains why the project is increasingly cited in “best presales to buy now” discussions across the crypto space. High-Yield Staking Model Shares Platform Revenue Beyond its presale appeal, BlockchainFX is creating a high-yield staking model that gives holders a direct share of platform revenue. Every time a trade occurs on its platform, 70% of trading fees flow back into the $BFX ecosystem: 50% of collected fees are automatically distributed to stakers in both BFX and USDT. 20% is allocated to daily buybacks of $BFX, adding demand and price support. Half of the bought-back tokens are permanently burned, steadily reducing supply. Rewards are based on the size of each member’s BFX holdings and capped at $25,000 USDT per day to ensure sustainability. This structure transforms token ownership from a speculative bet into an income-generating position, a rare feature among today’s altcoins. A Multi-Asset Platform…
