BlockBeats News, June 17 — The global market size for real-world asset (RWA) tokenization has exceeded $43 billion, growing approximately 37% over the past 180 days, indicating that institutional funds are continuing to accelerate their migration to blockchain infrastructure.

The report points out that this growth has occurred against the backdrop of a relatively weak overall crypto market, with on-chain financial asset expansion mainly driven by the onboarding of traditional financial products, covering funds, private credit, commodities, and stocks across various asset classes.

In the current market structure, tokenized funds dominate, accounting for about 80% of the total market value; commodity assets account for 16.6%, and tokenized stocks for approximately 3.8%. In terms of chain distribution, Ethereum remains the core hosting network, accounting for 57.8%, followed by BNB Chain, zkSync Era, XRP Ledger, and Stella

BlockBeats News, June 17 — According to CNBC, well-known investor Jim Cramer said that the core driver behind SpaceX’s stock price continuing to rise is not its current profitability, but the market’s bet on Elon Musk’s ability to build disruptive companies.

Cramer said that after SpaceX completed its IPO last week, its market value quickly rose to about $2.5 trillion, once surpassing Microsoft and exceeding Amazon. Even if the company may remain loss-making for many years to come, investors are still willing to give it a high valuation because of Musk’s track record of building industry leaders.

Cramer said: “This stock is called SpaceX, but it might as well be called Elon Musk. When you buy SpaceX, you’re actually buying Musk’s brain.”

He pointed out that investors

BlockBeats News, June 17 — According to the final draft of the US-Iran Memorandum of Understanding obtained by Bloomberg, after the agreement is signed, the United States will immediately issue exemptions for Iranian crude oil, petrochemical products, and related financial, insurance, and transportation services, and will promote a financing plan of at least $300 billion to support Iran’s economic recovery, while gradually unfreezing Iran’s overseas assets.


The draft shows that Iran and the United States plan to sign the Memorandum of Understanding in Switzerland on June 19 to end hostilities that began earlier this year in February. Under the agreement, both sides will establish a permanent ceasefire on all fronts, including the direction of Lebanon, and commit to no longer use force against each other. The United States also commits to lift the maritime blockade and restore navigation through the Strait of Hormuz within 30 days, and withdraw its military forces from surrounding areas within 30 days after the final agreement is signed.


In exchange, Iran commits to never制…

BlockBeats reports, citing CNBC, that on June 17 the Federal Reserve will release the dot plot. Wall Street generally believes that the new chair, Wosch, will not take part—either because he is not yet prepared, or because he does not like the dot plot. Wosch previously opposed the dot plot and forward guidance, worrying that it would constrain decision-making. If he refuses to provide the expected outlook, it would go against the practice from about 14 years after the crisis, and could also affect his relationships with other officials. However, it is also seen as the first step toward reform. Yale professor Bill Inglis said that Wosch is very likely unwilling to submit interest rate forecasts, and that there are also people within the committee who dislike the dot plot.

BlockBeats message, on June 17, Al Arabiya TV released the terms of the Iran–US 14-point Memorandum of Understanding. The terms are more detailed than the version released by Iran’s Mehr News Agency. The content in the parentheses is the version from Iranian media:


1. Iran and the United States and their allies in the current war announce that, from the date this Memorandum of Understanding is signed, they will immediately and permanently end all wars on all fronts, including in Lebanon, and pledge that they will not take any hostile actions against each other in the future, nor threaten each other or use force against each other. The final agreement will confirm the provisions of this clause and other terms.
(Permanently and immediately stop wars on all fronts, including Lebanon.)


2. Iran and the United States pledge to respect each other’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, and will not interfere in each other’s internal affairs.
(The United States pledges not to interfere in Iran’s internal affairs and to respect Iran’s sovereignty.)

BlockBeats News, June 17 — Regarding the Iran-U.S. agreement, the Israel-Lebanon conflict, and the Strait of Hormuz situation, all parties continue to send signals. Trump stated that the Iran-U.S. agreement negotiations have entered the second phase, and the agreement will clearly prohibit Iran from possessing nuclear weapons, with the full text to be published soon, and may even be read aloud word for word.
On the Iranian side, the Central Headquarters of the Iranian Armed Forces' Hatam Anbia accused Israel of violating the Lebanon ceasefire agreement 84 times in the past two days and warned that continued violations will be met with military responses. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard emphasized that Hezbollah in Lebanon has demonstrated strong strength in recent conflicts and "will never be destroyed." Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi said that the nuclear issue will be discussed in the final stage of negotiations, and ending the Lebanon war is a necessary condition for ending Iran's war. An advisor to the Iranian Foreign Ministry reiterated that missile programs and support for regional allies are non-negotiable.

BlockBeats reports that CNN said Israel had requested the U.S. to provide the text of the U.S.-Iran understanding memorandum for review, but was refused, as the Trump administration was concerned that Netanyahu could leak the text before it was officially released. At a press conference on June 15, Netanyahu said that he does not always agree with Trump, and that it is still unclear what the specific contents of the memorandum are.

According to Reuters, the U.S.-Iran framework agreement plans to establish a $300 billion private fund to promote investment in Iran. The fund can only be launched after the final agreement is signed, and it is a private investment tool that does not involve government funds and is unrelated to negotiations over frozen Iranian sovereign assets. The fund commits that more than half of the capital will come from the United States, Gulf Arab countries, and companies from Asia, South America, and Africa.

BlockBeats News, June 17 — U.S. intelligence assessments show that after Iran demonstrated relevant capabilities during the conflict, it still has the potential to close the Strait of Hormuz again. Although an agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz is expected to be reached, Tehran still retains the ability to deploy missiles, drones, speedboats, and mines, which could disrupt global energy transportation.


Intelligence officials stated that Iran has gained leverage on this critical trade route and may use regional energy infrastructure as a tool for pressure.
