Trump's World Liberty Financial signs partnership deal with London hedge fund

World Liberty Financial (WLFI), a crypto platform tied to US President Donald Trump's family, has partnered with London hedge fund Re7 to launch a USD1 stablecoin vault across Euler Finance and liquid staking protocol Lista. The partnership is part of a broader effort to expand the presence of World Liberty's USD1 stablecoin on the BNB Chain, according to Bloomberg. Lista is one of the major liquid staking platforms for the BNB token, and its decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), which governs the platform, is backed by Binance Labs — the venture capital arm of crypto exchange Binance. Binance Labs invested $10 million in Lista in August 2023. At the time, Lista was known as Helio Protocol and the capital was meant to aid the platform's transition to a liquid staking provider. WLFI continues to receive backing from institutional investors as US dollar stablecoins and real-world asset tokenization — the two sectors the DeFi platform is focused on — become strategically important to increasing the salability of the US dollar, a major priority of the Trump administration. WLFI attracts institutional capital In April, crypto market maker DWF Labs purchased $25 million in WLFI tokens, the governance token of the WLFI platform. The market maker will also provide liquidity for the USD1 stablecoin as part of the investment deal. Aqua1 Foundation, a digital asset fund, announced a $100 million investment in the Trump-affiliated DeFi platform, citing WLFI's focus on stablecoins and real-world asset tokenization as major use cases that would restructure global finance. Trump reported $57 million in income from WLFI to the US Office of Government Ethics in a June 13 disclosure filing, the bulk of which appears to have come from token sales. Despite the investment deals and windfall income, the Trump family reduced its stake in WLFI by 20% since 2024. Source:

ONVIF and the C2PA announce collaboration to strengthen trust in digital video

ONVIF®, the leading global standardization initiative for IP-based physical security products, has announced that it has entered into a strategic collaboration with the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA) to preserve the integrity and authenticity of digital video in the evolving fight against content manipulation. The two groups will work together to raise awareness and promote the adoption of open standards that help verify the authenticity of video content across digital video platforms. This initiative aligns the ONVIF video authentication specification with Content Credentials, the open standard published by the C2PA, which is comprised of Microsoft, Adobe, Google, Meta, BBC, and Truepic. Content Credentials enhances transparency and establishes end-to-end confidence in the authenticity of digital assets. This collaboration comes at a time when synthetic media, deepfakes, and AI-generated content are becoming increasingly indistinguishable from authentic footage. The tools that create this fake content pose a significant risk to public trust in video used for law enforcement, corporate security, and legal proceedings as well as in a wide range of digital media products. 'We are happy to welcome ONVIF as a liaison member to the C2PA,' said Andrew Jenks, Executive Chair of the C2PA. 'As the global standard for provenance, Content Credentials plays a vital role in providing transparency in digital media. The collaboration with ONVIF and the C2PA brings Content Credentials to video security – an environment where footage must reflect reality without alteration. We're excited about our work together and the impact of our global, open standards.' The video authentication specification developed by ONVIF, known as media signing, ensures that video footage is cryptographically signed at the point of capture with a digital key specific to the individual surveillance camera. The signatures are embedded in the video, enabling an authentication tool to verify whether video frames – throughout the chain of custody – have been modified or manipulated since they left the camera. This is critical for video used in court proceedings, law enforcement investigations, and corporate security incidents, where any doubts about the validity of video evidence can undermine outcomes and erode institutional trust. The C2PA's core specification, Content Credentials, is a technical standard that allows publishers, creators, and consumers to trace the lifecycle of media, beginning from production (such as which camera captured an image, whether it was edited, and when) to consumption (displaying this information on the website or platform where the content appears). Content Credentials embed cryptographically signed, tamper-evident metadata directly into images, video, audio, and documents or stored in a manifest that travels with the content, making any alteration detectable. This metadata acts like a digital 'nutrition label,' detailing the content's origin, history, and any modifications made. 'Preserving the authenticity of video has never been more important as the threats from generative AI and other means of content manipulation continue to increase exponentially, regardless of industry and use case,' said Leo Levit, Chairman, Steering Committee, ONVIF. 'The work of ONVIF to preserve video integrity and the recognition by the C2PA will help build user confidence that recorded video can be verified as genuine and untampered.' ONVIF is a leading and well-recognized industry forum driving interoperability for IP-based physical security products, with a global member base of established camera, video management system and access control companies and nearly 34,000 profile conformant products. ONVIF offers Profile S for streaming video; Profile G for video recording and storage; Profile C for physical access control; Profile A for broader access control configuration; Profile T for advanced video streaming; Profile M for metadata and events for analytics applications and Profile D for access control peripherals. ONVIF continues to work with its members to expand the number of IP interoperability solutions ONVIF conformant products can provide. Further information about ONVIF conformant products, including member companies and their conformant models, is available on the ONVIF website:

Trump wants interest rates down to 1% and would ‘love' Fed chairman Powell to resign

US President Donald Trump has said he wants interest rates to be cut to one per cent and that he would 'love' Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell to resign. Mr Trump added that he would pick a successor who wants to cut interest rates. 'I'd love him to resign if he wanted to. He's done a lousy job,' Mr Trump said of Mr Powell, speaking at an Oval Office event on Friday. 'If I think somebody's going to keep the rates where they are, or whatever, I'm not going to put them in. 'I'm going to put somebody that wants to cut rates. There are a lot of them out there,' he added. Mr Trump's comments are the latest in a series of attacks on Mr Powell in recent months, increasing his pressure on the Federal Reserve chairman to lower interest rates. Mr Powell so far has resisted and maintains that policy decisions will be data-dependent. The President has argued repeatedly that the central bank's policies are keeping government borrowing costs too high. Mr Powell's term ends in May 2026 and Mr Trump is expected to nominate a successor in the coming months, according to Reuters. The Fed last week kept interest rates unchanged between 4.25 and 4.50 per cent. It has not adjusted rates in its last four meetings, largely due to the uncertainty surrounding Mr Trump's tariffs. Mr Powell last week said tariffs could either have a one-off or persistent effect on inflation. Asked by reporters why not cut interest rates this month, Mr Powell said he expected to see 'meaningful' inflation in the coming months. The Central Bank of the UAE, which follows Fed decisions because of the dollar peg, also held rates steady following the US central bank's most recent decision. The Fed has held rates steady after lowering them by 100 basis points to about 4.33 per cent last year. Its next two-day meeting is on July 29-30.
