Blast published a post announcing the points distribution details for the second phase of the airdrop. In the second phase, Blast will distribute 10 billion BLAST airdrops, of which 50% will be allocated to ordinary points (Points). Users can earn Points by holding ETH, WETH, USDB and BLAST, and the Point accumulation rate of each asset is the same; 50% will be allocated to gold points (Gold). Dapps can earn Gold (and then distribute it to users) based on their comprehensive appeal on the Blast mainnet and in future Big Bang competitions. Gold will be distributed in the first week of each month, and the first phase will be announced on July 8.
In addition, users who have installed the Blast App will receive a Golden Ticket based on their ETH, WETH, USDB, and BLAST balances. The Golden Ticket gives users the opportunity to earn more Points and Gold.
The mechanisms that existed in the first phase, such as Jackpot, points multiplier, and invitation points return, will continue to exist, but invitations in the second phase will be calculated independently.

Crypto venture funding continued to rebound in the second quarter despite the market downturn, with founders and investors generally reporting a more active funding environment than in previous quarters, according to data from Galaxy Digital.
“Crypto VC sentiment continues to improve, though levels remain well below the 2021-2022 bull run,” Galaxy Digital research analysts Alex Thorn and Gabe Parker wrote in a note on Tuesday.
Galaxy reported that venture capitalists invested $3.19 billion in cryptocurrency and blockchain companies in Q2, slightly higher than the $3.16 billion in the first quarter.
QED, the Bitcoin on-chain expansion protocol, announced the completion of a $6 million seed round of financing, with Blockchain Capital as the only investor. Its founder revealed that this round of financing has brought QEDs valuation to 9 figures, or at least $100 million. As of now, QEDs total financing has reached $10.6 million. Previously, the company had received $3.25 million in pre-seed financing from companies such as Arrington Capital, StarkWare, and Draper Dragon, and $1.35 million in angel round financing from companies such as Sparkle Ventures, which is supported by Animoca Brands.

OKX Ventures announces investment in Lombard to drive innovation in the Bitcoin restaking ecosystem
On July 3, OKX Ventures announced an investment in Lombard, a Babylon-based solution that provides cross-chain liquidity staking for Bitcoin.
Lombards flagship product is LBTC. Lombard has partnered with Babylon, whose staking protocol allows Bitcoin assets to be staked in a trustless and self-custodial manner, providing economic security for Proof of Stake (PoS) systems. Through Babylon, staked Bitcoin assets are converted to LBTC, allowing them to be integrated into the most commonly used DeFi protocols on the Ethereum mainnet and future popular Layer 2 chains. LBTC moves seamlessly across chains and is used as collateral in decentralized finance, aiming to unlock more than $1.3 trillion in Bitcoin for lending and trading. This move will not only bring new capital opportunities to Bitcoin holders, but will also drive the growth of various ecosystems and DeFi protocols, thereby enhancing the utility and liquidity of Bitcoin.

Major parties remain silent on crypto issues ahead of UK election
The Labour Party, the favorite to win tomorrow’s UK general election, barely mentioned cryptocurrencies during its campaign, which could mean the future of the crypto industry in the country remains uncertain. Aside from briefly stating that it wants the UK to become a tokenization hub and supporting plans for a digital pound, the party has been silent on cryptocurrencies.
The topic did not come up during the last debate between Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Labour MP Keir Starmer, which was about welfare, immigration and relations with the European Union. While the Conservative government has introduced a range of cryptocurrency policies, its current manifesto does not mention it.
Labour leads in the polls, with 42% of voters in favor. The Conservatives are at 19%, according to a June Ipsos survey of voting intentions. When the seats are counted, Starmer is likely to become prime minister with a majority in Parliament. (CoinDesk)

10x Research founder Markus Thielen said that the estimated average entry price for Bitcoin ETFs is $60,000 to $61,000, and retesting this level may trigger a wave of liquidations. In addition, 30% of the inflows belong to a non-directional arbitrage strategy, namely basis trading, rather than direct bullish bets.
Markus Thielen added: “When Bitcoin fell to $56,500 on May 2, BlackRock claimed that ‘sovereign wealth funds and pension funds’ were coming, which helped to stop the decline, but now BlackRock says that 80% of their purchases of the Bitcoin IBIT ETF came from retail investors, not institutions.” (Coindesk)
Steve Kurz, head of Galaxy Digital Asset Management, said the U.S. SEC could approve a spot Ethereum ETF by the end of July and described the prospects for other crypto ETFs.
Kurz said he expects an Ethereum spot ETF could be approved “in weeks, not days,” but within a month.
He said Galaxy has been working with the SEC on the application for months, noting that the company’s upcoming spot Ethereum ETF is similar to the existing spot Bitcoin ETF (BTCO). Galaxy partnered with investment management firm Invesco to create both funds.
Kurz also expressed optimism that other spot crypto ETFs besides Ethereum will be approved. He said legislation, including laws defining securities, is necessary, and he believes that process will proceed even if Biden remains president. (CryptoSlate)
Fed spokesperson: Powell puts rate cuts back on the agenda, highlighting cautious optimism
Nick Timiraos, a reporter for the Wall Street Journal and known as the Federal Reserves mouthpiece, wrote in his latest article that Federal Reserve Chairman Powell has put interest rate cuts back on the map. Powells speech highlighted a cautious optimism that had faded after the disappointing inflation data in April. He said the economy has made significant progress, real progress, and considerable progress in reducing inflation while achieving stable growth. But he remains cautious about rate cuts, suggesting that the Feds chances of a rate cut at its meeting later this month remain slim. In addition, Powell declined to say whether he was preparing for a rate cut in September. Im not going to set any specific dates here today, he said.
VanEck: Solana ETF approval odds increase if Gensler no longer serves as SEC chairman
Matthew Sigel, head of digital asset research at VanEck, said that the chances of VanEck applying to issue a spot Solana ETF depend largely on the outcome of the 20204 presidential election and whether Gary Gensler continues to serve as chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. It is very likely that cryptocurrency voters will play an important role in this election. We have already seen a change in the regulatory environment at the level of elected officials. Multiple Democrats voted in favor of legislation that supports cryptocurrency.
Sigel expressed agreement with SEC Chairman Gary Gensler’s recent comments that “Ethereum applications are progressing well,” adding, “This is probably the only time in three years that I agree with Gary Gensler.” (Decrypt)
