This week, the crypto coin market has diverged in the trend. The price of cryptocurrencies such as BTC remained stable in a sideways trend during the week, still fluctuating slightly around the 20-day moving average. The second-generation public chains represented by ETH saw a price spike this week. On the 1st, the price of ETH rose by $399.06 in a single day, soaring from $3,428.86 to $3,827.92, a one-day increase of 11.64%. Thanks to the renewed strength of the DeFi project, the price of ETH successfully broke through the upper limit of the Bollinger band, achieving an upgrade in the price range. Currently, the total locked position of DeFi project on Ethereum has returned to the pre-May level. After the price surge on the 1st, the spot price of ETH has also entered a sideways adjustment phase, with the price currently stabilizing at around $3,800. If the DeFi lockup continues to increase, the ETH price may rise further.

The Securities and Exchange Commission of Thailand has released new draft regulations aimed at protecting investors. The draft proposes more stringent regulatory requirements for trustees, including the requirement that withdrawals and transfers of fiat currency from accounts opened for clients should be subject to decentralized approval authority, multi-signature approval authority as well as the principle of checks and balances while prohibiting trustees from using clients' assets for the benefit of other clients. This is widely interpreted by outsiders as a first step in tightening the Thai regulator's grip on crypto lending.
