ChainCatcher news, according to market news, Coinbase, Kraken, and Gemini submitted amendments to the U.S. Senate Agriculture Committee, requesting the removal of a clause in the Digital Assets Act that requires trading platforms to only list "not readily susceptible to manipulation" tokens.

ChainCatcher news, according to British police, former World Athletics Championships 4×100m relay gold medalist and British sprinter CJ Ujah and nine others have been charged with "conspiracy to commit fraud" in a cryptocurrency fraud case. Police said the criminal gang impersonated police and cryptocurrency company personnel to commit phone fraud against multiple victims, inducing them to leak key wallet security information, including seed phrases, and then transferred the victims' crypto assets, with one victim losing more than £300,000. The case was solved by a joint investigation by the Special Operations Unit for the Eastern Region of the United Kingdom (ERSOU) across Kent, Essex and London. Ten suspects have appeared in court, with Ujah being granted bail until May 28 for further hearings. Ujah, 32, won the World Championships 4×100m relay gold medal for Great Britain in 2017 and won the Diamond League title in the same year. He was suspended for 22 months for doping in 2022 after being found to have caused a false test due to supplement contamination. In addition to Ujah, another British sprinter, Brandon Mingeli, is also on the arrest list and is currently in custody pending trial.

According to ChainCatcher news, Bitcoin mining company TeraWulf announced its Q1 financial report, showing that its high-performance computing (HPC) business surpassed Bitcoin mining revenue for the first time, marking a critical stage in the company's transformation to AI and cloud computing power infrastructure. The company's Q1 total revenue was $34 million, basically unchanged from the same period last year. Among them, HPC leasing revenue reached US$21 million, surpassing the digital asset mining revenue of less than US$13 million for the first time, becoming the main source of revenue. The financial report also showed that the company's net loss widened to $427.6 million, mainly affected by the revaluation of non-cash warrants. However, CFO Patrick Fleury emphasized that the company is shifting from "volatility mining revenue" to "stable long-term hashrate contract revenue." TeraWulf currently has 60 MW of HPC capacity at its Lake Mariner data center in New York City, with plans to continue expanding during the year. At the same time, the company is transforming some of its mining machine infrastructure into AI/HPC computing resources to support ultra-large-scale computing power needs. This trend continues to spread in the industry, and Bitcoin miners such as Riot Platforms are also expanding their revenue structures through data centers and AI contracts, gradually transforming into "computing infrastructure companies".
