Jinse Finance reported that, according to on-chain investigator ZachXBT, Senators Warren and Reed accused World Liberty Financial of having $10,000 from illegal sources in its token sale, but this only accounts for 0.0018% of the total fundraising amount of $550 million. ZachXBT pointed out on social media that this proportion is not statistically significant. Previously, it was reported that US senators requested an investigation into the Trump family-linked crypto project World Liberty Financial, claiming it sold $WLFI governance tokens to "various highly suspicious entities," including traders associated with the North Korean hacker group Lazarus Group, sanctioned Russian "ruble-backed sanction evasion tools," Iranian crypto exchanges, and the money laundering platform Tornado Cash, raising national security concerns.

Jinse Finance reported that 0xbow, a privacy-focused decentralized finance (DeFi) platform, announced on Tuesday that it has completed a $3.5 million seed round of financing. This round was led by Starbloom Capital, with participation from Coinbase Ventures, BOOST VC, Status Research & Development GmbH, and several angel investors. 0xbow had previously completed a pre-seed round in 2024, with Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin as an investor. The funds from this round will be used to expand its compliant crypto privacy technology, Privacy Pools. Privacy Pools utilize smart contracts to batch and mix user transactions, thereby obscuring on-chain links while allowing users to prove compliance with anti-money laundering and other legal frameworks. Its Associated Set Provider (ASP) system monitors deposits for suspicious activity without withholding user funds.
