New Hampshire signs Blockchain Basics Act to protect self-custody and crypto activity

New Hampshire Governor Kelly Ayotte has signed HB 639, known as the Blockchain Basics Act, according to Decrypt. The measure gives legal protections to crypto users, miners, validators and developers in the state, and also allows the superior court to create a docket for blockchain-related disputes. State Representative Keith Ammon, the bill’s prime sponsor, said the law protects the right of individuals to control digital assets through self-custody and sets clearer legal guardrails for blockchain developers, miners, validators and fintech firms. The move adds to New Hampshire’s recent crypto policy activity. In May last year, the state passed a strategic Bitcoin reserve bill that allows the state treasurer to invest up to 5% of public funds in Bitcoin as well as precious metals including gold and silver. Still, the state’s executive council rejected a proposal last week that would have allowed Bitcoin-backed municipal bonds.

Sablier halts active development and shifts to maintenance mode through June 2028

Sablier Labs said it will stop active product development and move into maintenance mode through June 2028, while keeping its existing token streams, vesting plans, and airdrops in place. The company said its smart contracts will continue running on-chain, and its official interface is expected to be open-sourced and maintained by the community. Founder Paul Razvan Berg said usage and revenue fell sharply in the first quarter of 2026. He also said some customers delayed launches because of worsening market conditions. At the same time, AI-assisted coding has made it much cheaper to replicate similar products. Based on that assessment, the team concluded that while demand still exists for on-chain token distribution and streaming payments, the market is not large enough to support the company’s continued active development efforts.

Whale opens 15x Brent crude long worth nearly $2.6 million

Onchain Lens said on July 14 that a whale opened a new 15x leveraged long position in Brent crude, with the position valued at nearly $2.6 million. The tracker described the trade as a momentum entry at higher prices. The same whale is also sitting on an overall loss of $2.49 million on Hyperliquid, according to the monitoring data. The update points to a sizable commodities bet from a trader already carrying substantial losses on the platform.

Long March 10B rally in space stocks reverses, with quant trading blamed for whipsaw moves

China’s commercial space stocks surged after the July 10 debut of Long March 10B and its recovery milestone, then reversed sharply within days, reigniting debate over how the sector is being priced. The original article argues that the violent move had less to do with the launch headline itself and more to do with market structure: limited long-only institutional ownership, fragmented positioning, and a large quant presence in A-share turnover. The piece contrasts that short-term trading dynamic with steady conviction in the primary market. It cites 89 disclosed financing events worth RMB 15.13 billion in China’s commercial space sector in the first half of 2026, with launch services taking 44% of total funding. It also lays out a multi-stage narrative for the sector over the past two years, from concept-driven speculation to policy support and then technical validation, while noting that profitability remains highly uneven across the supply chain. The article says the next test will come from rocket recovery milestones, reuse attempts, IPO progress and interim results. In that framing, Long March 10B’s success marked a major technical step for China’s commercial space industry, but not necessarily an immediate shift in how the secondary market assigns value.

StepX Neo bets on protocol-based AI phone model to bridge app silos

StepFun on July 13 unveiled STEPX Neo, which it described as the world’s first native large-model agent smartphone. The device runs Step AOS, includes the Amoo agent, and introduces the Step Edge on-device model alongside the GUI-MCP protocol. The company is taking a different path from ByteDance’s Doubao phone assistant, which previously ran into risk-control issues after using simulated clicks to operate across apps. According to the source article, StepFun’s argument is that large-model companies need system-level access rather than staying confined to standalone apps or mini programs. STEPX Neo, manufactured by Huaqin Technology, is set for its first public showing at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference on July 17. Pricing and hardware specifications have not been disclosed. The bigger question is not only technical execution but whether app operators will cooperate. StepFun has listed initial partners including Meituan, WPS, CapCut, Trip.com, Amap, Alipay, Baidu, Didi and JD.com. The article argues that protocol-based interoperability may be more stable than accessibility-driven simulated clicks, but the approach still depends on commercial incentives, data-sharing trust, and support from major closed ecosystems.

StepFun’s STEPX Neo bets on protocol-based app access instead of click simulation

StepFun on July 13 unveiled STEPX Neo, which it described as the world’s first smartphone built around a native large-model agent. The device runs Step AOS, includes the Amoo agent, and comes with Step Edge and the GUI-MCP protocol, a framework the company says is designed to let agents work across apps through standardized interfaces rather than simulated taps. That product direction stands in contrast to ByteDance’s Doubao phone assistant, which in December 2025 promoted cross-app automation through system-level click simulation but later ran into WeChat risk controls, with users reporting abnormal exits and login failures. The feature was subsequently removed. According to the source material, StepFun’s approach depends less on breaking through app boundaries by force and more on persuading app developers to connect to a common protocol. The company said its first batch of ecosystem partners includes Meituan, WPS, CapCut, Trip.com, Amap, Alipay, Baidu, Didi and JD.com. The larger question is whether broader adoption will follow, especially from large closed ecosystems that have not publicly committed to joining such a standard.
