Huione Group, a Cambodian conglomerate linked to the largest illicit online marketplace, could be cut off from the U.S. financial system under a new Treasury proposal. According to a May 1 announcement from the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), the agency is looking to label Huione Group as a “primary money laundering concern” and block it from accessing the American banking network FinCEN’s proposed rule would prevent U.S. financial institutions from opening or maintaining any correspondent or payable-through accounts for Huione Group. “Today’s proposed action will sever Huione Group’s access to correspondent banking, degrading these groups’ ability to launder their ill-gotten gains,” Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said in an accompanying statement. While the company doesn’t directly bank in the U.S., FinCEN claims it reportedly operates through overseas firms that do, giving it indirect access to the American financial system. Authorities say this access has allowed Huione to quietly support major cybercriminal operations, including laundering stolen crypto for North Korea’s notorious Lazarus Group.

One of the biggest concerns is that Huione has built a sprawling network of businesses designed to support its operations. These include Huione Pay, a payment services firm; Huione Crypto, a virtual asset platform; and a controversial Telegram-based marketplace that recently rebranded to Haowang Guarantee. FinCEN also flagged Huione’s stablecoin, USDH, which is pegged to the U.S. dollar but designed in a way that makes it hard to freeze. Officials believe it’s being used to sidestep oversight and quietly funnel illicit funds into fiat currency. “Because Huione Group claims that USDH cannot be frozen, this service offers Huione Group’s clientele a virtually risk-free ecosystem to move or store CVC without the risk of interception or “freezing” by law enforcement,” FinCEN noted in its rulemaking submission. In July 2024, Tether froze nearly $30 million in USDT linked to Huoine accounts, which may have prompted the launch of USDH. The proposed rule is now open to public comment for 30 days before it can take effect. Back in July 2024, blockchain forensics firm Elliptic raised red flags around Huione, calling it a central hub for Southeast Asian cybercriminals.  The report described the company’s marketplace as the biggest of its kind, with thousands of Telegram channels offering laundering services, scam website tools, and even human trafficking-related services. The platform’s mobile app was eventually delisted from the Google Play Store in January following criminal allegations, but it remains active on the Apple App Store.  Read more:Huione, company behind largest illicit online marketplace, launches stablecoin: report

Sen. Lummis stated that Donald Trump supports her BITCOIN Act, which would mandate that the government accumulate 1 million Bitcoins. Bitcoin strategic reserve could soon become a reality. On a Friday, May 2 speech to the U.S. Senate, Senator Cynthia Lummis stated that U.S. President Donald Trump supports her BITCOIN Act. The BITCOIN Act is the only solution to our nation’s $36T debt. I’m grateful for a forward-thinking president who not only recognizes this, but acts on it. pic.twitter.com/NVWH6v2EcH— Senator Cynthia Lummis (@SenLummis) May 2, 2025 I’m particularly pleased with President Trump’s support for my strategic Bitcoin reserve initiative, which will address our national debt, while securing America’s position as the global leader in financial innovation,” Senator Cynthia Lummis stated.

Notably, Lummis stated that Bitcoin puts “the everyday American and the everyday worker all over the world in control over their own money.” As Bitcoin comes into more usage, its use makes the whole system more secure, more robust, and more capable of serving our needs all over the world. We should be the global leader,” Lummis. The act, which Lummis proposed in the Senate, mandates the U.S. government to acquire 1 million Bitcoins (BTC) over five years. This acquisition would make the U.S. government the largest single holder of Bitcoin, which has a capped supply of 21 million.

At current prices, the U.S. would need to invest around $76 billion in BTC to reach the 1 million BTC target. However, prices are unlikely to remain stable, as markets would likely see this move as a major bullish signal. The relatively illiquid supply of Bitcoin, compared to traditional assets, means that Bitcoin’s price would likely rise significantly once the acquisition starts. U.S. would also have to compete with Bitcoin giants such as Strategy, which has announced plans to invest $84 million in BTC.

尽管最近市场下滑且宏观形势不明朗，但该战略仍在计划额外筹集资金来资助比特币购买。 Strategy（原名 MicroStrategy）计划通过其 A 类优先股筹集 210 亿美元，以增强其投资组合。根据提交给美国证券交易委员会的文件和公司声明，Strategy 将利用此次出售所得为一般公司运营提供资金，其中可能包括购买更多比特币 (BTC)。 通过在市场上出售的方式出售 STRK 股票，为 Strategy 现有的“21/21”路线图的 ATM 股权计划增添了新内容，该计划旨在筹集和投资 420 亿美元 BTC，由执行主席迈克尔·塞勒 (Michael Saylor) 倡导。 目前，Saylor 的公司拥有约 499,096 枚比特币，价值超过 410 亿美元。Strategy 已斥资约 331 亿美元收购了这批巨额比特币，平均价格为 66,357 美元，大部分资金来自股权出售筹集的资金。 你可能还喜欢：日本 40 年期债券收益率接近历史最高水平，这对加密货币市场有何影响 STRK 是一种永久优先股，它为 Strategy 增加了新的灵活性，因为它可以继续通过股票销售购买 BTC。 永久优先股不受债券那样的到期日或固定赎回期的限制。相反，像 STRK 这样的工具会永久支付预定的股息，Strategy 的股息为 8%，只要发行人仍在营业。STRK 投资者还可以将其持有的股票换成 A 类普通股，尽管这一过程涉及特定的要求和条件。 此外，如果 STRK 的价值比发行时的初始价值下降 25%，则 Strategy 可以对未购买的全部分配行使回购选择权。 TradingView 数据显示，STRK 上周收盘下跌 2.1%。3 月 3 日至 3 月 7 日期间，Strategy 的 A 类普通股没有新的客户，这意味着该公司本周可能不会披露新的 BTC 收购。 阅读更多：特朗普下令建立比特币储备，萨尔瓦多违抗国际货币基金组织，ETF 举步维艰 | 每周回顾
