Justin Sun sues World Liberty Financial over token lockup

Tron founder Justin Sun has sued Trump-family-backed World Liberty Financial in California federal court, alleging the project froze his tokens and threatened to burn them without proper justification. Sun says he tried to resolve the dispute privately but was forced to litigate to protect his rights as a token holder, arguing that a recent WLFI governance proposal could leave non-consenting holders locked indefinitely and burn 10% of certain tokens. Despite the lawsuit, Sun said he remains supportive of President Donald Trump’s push to make the US more crypto-friendly and claims the project team’s actions don’t reflect Trump’s values.

Binance.US cuts spot trading fees to near zero in push to undercut rivals

Binance.US has slashed spot trading fees to near zero—setting maker fees at 0% and taker fees at 0.02% across all pairs—for every user with no volume tiers or subscriptions, replacing its previous tiered structure. The exchange says the change could cut trading costs by up to 98% versus rivals like Coinbase and Kraken, and follows the appointment of new CEO Stephen Gregory and the expansion of an earlier zero-fee offer beyond select Bitcoin pairs. The move comes as competition heats up (including Charles Schwab’s planned retail crypto trading launch) while Binance continues to face ongoing regulatory scrutiny in the U.S. stemming from its 2023 settlement and subsequent compliance concerns.

Thailand regulator mulls crypto futures expansion in licensing overhaul

Thailand’s Securities and Exchange Commission is seeking public feedback on a licensing overhaul that would let already-licensed digital asset firms apply to offer crypto derivatives, including futures, without setting up separate entities. The proposal builds on earlier rules that recognized digital assets as eligible underlying assets for futures contracts, while adding safeguards to manage conflicts of interest and strengthen oversight. Regulators say the changes could lower entry barriers, broaden investors’ hedging and portfolio tools, and align exchanges and clearing standards with international practices, with consultation open until May 20.

What an on-chain travel pass actually means for you

Owning a slice of travel inventory used to mean signing a contract you couldn’t get out of. On-chain travel passes move with the holder, not the developer — transferable, verifiable, and not tied to one resort. That’s what Real-World Assets on-chain looks like in practice.

How to fix suspected insider trading on Polymarket and Kalshi

Prediction markets like Polymarket and Kalshi have grown rapidly by accurately forecasting events and aggregating dispersed information into price-based probabilities. Their design encourages honest belief revelation and often produces reliable forecasts, but it also creates incentives for misuse. Experts warn that participants can exploit or signal insider knowledge, turning markets from predictive tools into channels for privileged information.

Concerns center on insider trading, especially in cases involving sensitive events like military actions, where suspicious bets have raised national security risks. While platforms like Kalshi enforce identity verification and monitoring, more anonymous systems such as Polymarket’s international version are harder to regulate. Both have tightened rules, but structural issues persist, prompting exploration of new market designs that may reduce incentives for insider abuse.
