This allows users to earn validator rewards while maintaining liquidity, a key innovation for Sui-based staking. Users who stake HAEDAL tokens into veHAEDAL receive governance rights, boosted farming rewards, and a share of staking revenues. Bithumb Targeted by South Korea’s FTC The timing of the Bithumb listing is notable, especially as the exchange was recently designated a public disclosure target by South Korea’s Fair Trade Commission. Moreover, the firm was also classified as a conglomerate on May 1st. The move classifies Bithumb as a large-scale enterprise, indicating its rapid growth due to a surge in virtual asset trading. The regulatory acknowledgment adds legitimacy to the exchange and, by extension, to new tokens it chooses to list. However, the exchange is now also subject to stricter laws and compliance when it comes to listing tokens. next Disclaimer: Coinspeaker is committed to providing unbiased and transparent reporting.
