He believes the capitulation phase is the clearest signal for accumulating digital gold. Killa suggested that the final low of the current Bitcoin cycle will occur later. He predicts this will happen amid a stock market correction, with the bear market bottom forming by the end of this year.

Singapore Integrates AI into Standards Roadmap Through 2035
Singapore's Enterprise Singapore, under the Ministry of Trade and Industry, has unveiled the Standards and Conformance 2035 roadmap, highlighting AI as a key focus for standardization and compliance assessment. The agency has also formalized five memorandums with international and regional partners, covering areas from AI and quantum technologies to carbon projects and credits. The document aims to strengthen Singapore's role in standards development, international certification recognition, and the evaluation of new technologies before widespread adoption. The AI section emphasizes early standard development—establishing approaches before formal rules are set internationally. Three Pillars The roadmap is based on three pillars: supporting growth through early standard adoption; developing a testing, inspection, and certification ecosystem; enhancing Singapore's role in regional and global standards and compliance networks. The key idea is to embed standards into products, services, and processes early, rather than retroactively. EnterpriseSG has prioritized AI, precision medicine, clean energy, and offshore wind energy as new focus areas. A specific focus is on sectors where rules are still being formed, including AI, carbon services, and precision medicine. EnterpriseSG plans to launch regulatory sandboxes to test new approaches before formalization and simultaneously build local expertise in testing, inspection, and certification. "Standards and compliance are not just about meeting requirements but are strategic levers for growth. With the S&C; 2035 roadmap, we accelerate early standard adoption by Singaporean businesses, helping companies innovate faster and access global markets more easily," said Choy Sau Kuen, Director of the Quality and Excellence Group at EnterpriseSG. Five Memorandums: AI, Quantum Technologies, and Carbon Credits EnterpriseSG has formalized five memorandums with international and regional partners. The AI section includes a multilateral memorandum with the British Standards Institution, Korea Agency for Technology and Standards, Standards Australia, and Standards Council of Canada. The goal is to bridge the gap between rapid AI development and the slower formal standard-setting process. Separately, Singapore signed an agreement with the American National Standards Institute on critical and emerging technologies, including AI and quantum technologies. Two more agreements involve cooperation with Southeast Asian countries—Vietnam and Indonesia—to strengthen regional capabilities in AI standards and compliance. Additionally, EnterpriseSG has partnered with the Gold Standard Foundation and Verra to enhance sustainability verification frameworks for carbon projects and credits. Progress on AI Standards On April 20, 2026, IMDA and EnterpriseSG announced that Singapore proposed the international standard ISO/IEC 42119-8 to unify testing methodologies for generative AI systems. The release described it as the first international standard of its kind for testing generative AI systems (GenAI). Previously, IMDA and AI Verify Foundation released a Starter Kit for Testing LLM-Based Applications for Safety and Reliability. The document outlines voluntary guidelines for testing LLM applications before launch and highlights five key risks: hallucinations and factual errors; bias; undesirable content; data leaks; resilience to malicious prompts. Separately, AI Verify Foundation launched an accreditation program for AI testers. It aims to establish requirements for third-party companies testing GenAI applications and develop the market for independent AI system assessments. In 2024, the European Parliament adopted the EU AI regulation. ForkLog asked participants at the Privacy Day 2024 conference to discuss its overall impact on the industry.

SEC to Lay Groundwork for Tokenization of Stocks
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has proposed rescinding two key rules of Regulation NMS. The initiative aims to reduce market participants' costs and encourage innovation. Officials plan to revoke rules 611 and 610(e). The first prohibits trades at prices less favorable than the best offers on other platforms. The second limits the display of quotes that block or cross price values on other exchanges. SEC Chairman Paul Atkins stated that these rules have been in place for 20 years but have become an obstacle to market development over time. He believes the rules have created "unintended consequences" that hinder growth. The public discussion of the proposal will last 60 days following its publication in the Federal Register. Afterward, the Commission will make a final decision on revising the rules. Galaxy Digital called the agency's decision a crucial step for the development of DeFi. According to Alex Thorn, head of research, current rules physically prevent automated market makers (AMM) from trading tokenized stocks. Decentralized protocols operate based on mathematical formulas and cannot account for liquidity on external platforms in real-time. the SEC just proposed rescinding Rule 611 of Reg NMS, the trade-through rule that has defined US equity market structure since 2005this is a tradfi story, yes, but this is also one of the biggest unlocks yet for tokenized stocks 👇 pic.twitter.com/T0PJvWxysI— Alex Thorn (@intangiblecoins) June 11, 2026 “An AMM cannot halt a trade because the price is better on Nasdaq. Once the rules are rescinded, tokenized stocks can legally trade in DeFi pools,” Thorn explained. Instead of strict restrictions, the SEC plans to adopt a flexible approach based on the principle of "best execution" of trades. The changes are expected to be implemented in the first quarter of 2027. Until then, the Commission may launch pilot projects on tokenization, granting participants temporary exemptions from existing rules. In May, SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce urged the crypto industry to temper expectations regarding an "innovation exemption" for trading tokenized stocks. She stated that the regulator does not plan to allow the issuance of synthetic assets.
