PANews reported on October 31st, citing Bloomberg, that the Basel Committee, the global banking regulator, is reassessing capital rules for banks' crypto assets due to the accelerated development of stablecoins. The US advocates for revisions, arguing that the current standards impose the same 1250% risk weight on "permissionless" stablecoins like USDC and USDT as on Bitcoin, which is too high. The ECB prefers to implement the current rules first and then review them. The EU has already allowed stablecoins to be treated with equivalent capital as their reserve assets. The UK will announce its stablecoin regulatory plan this month; Singapore has postponed implementation by one year; Hong Kong plans to launch stablecoins in 2026 and lower the requirements for licensed stablecoins. The Basel Committee has already postponed the overall implementation by one year.PANews reported on October 31st, citing Bloomberg, that the Basel Committee, the global banking regulator, is reassessing capital rules for banks' crypto assets due to the accelerated development of stablecoins.

Shibarium releases security incident update: Specific bridge operations have been restricted, limiting the attacker's short-term BONE token staking

PANews reported on September 21st that the Shibarium cross-chain bridge, which connects the Layer 2 network Shibarium and Ethereum, was previously attacked by a flash loan, with approximately $2.4 million in ETH and SHIB stolen. Shibarium has now released a security incident update, stating: 1. Specific bridge operations have been restricted to prevent new unauthorized transactions; 2. Upgrade and restrict potential abuse paths (deposits/withdrawals/claims/rewards) and add targeted defensive controls to prevent abuse of delegated staking; 3. Recover and protect the at-risk BONE held by the staking managers. The attacker’s short-term BONE staking will be effectively restricted by intervention and protocol mechanisms. 4. Rotate validator signers and migrate contract control to multi-party hardware custody; continue the broad migration away from legacy keys; 5. Real-time monitoring of attacker traffic; automatic alerts and reporting to partners and exchanges; 6. Hire independent security researchers, incident response firms, and relevant departments.
