Citi: South Korea's GDP growth may slow in 2025, and the central bank may cut interest rates three more times
Citigroup analysts Jin-Wook Kim and Jiuk Choi wrote in a report that due to the sluggish economic activity in the first quarter and the new tariffs implemented in the United States in April, South Korea's GDP growth rate this year may be weaker than expected. Analysts say that the delay in fiscal stimulus measures may also drag down the country's GDP growth. They have lowered their GDP growth expectations for South Korea in 2025 from 1.2% to 1.0%. The government may prepare an additional budget of 100 trillion Korean won in the second quarter and an additional budget of 200 trillion Korean won in the third quarter to support the economy. They added that the central bank may cut interest rates three more times this year - possibly in May, August, and November.

Tokenized Real-World Assets Market Expanding Rapidly, Facing Obstacles
The tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) market is rapidly expanding, with the primary challenge to wider adoption being the absence of dedicated secondary markets for trading tokenized securities, as stated by Prometheum founder and co-CEO Aaron Kaplan. Kaplan emphasized the significance of regulatory clarity in the tokenization sector, highlighting that the US SEC's special purpose broker-dealer framework and ATS licensing offer a regulated pathway for issuing blockchain-native funds. Despite the increasing value of tokenized RWAs, the limited market infrastructure for trading these assets remains a bottleneck, particularly for institutional and retail investors. Two main strategies are being pursued to tackle this issue: establishing decentralized tokenized securities markets through DeFi frameworks and incorporating tokenization protocols into existing brokerage platforms under SEC-registered entities. The demand for tokenized assets, especially in real estate, is on the rise as investors look for digital native versions of traditional assets within a familiar ecosystem.

Trump family owns at least 60% of WLFI through new holding company
Trump family seems to be strengthening its control over WLFI. WLFI was announced by Trump before taking office, but is still in the development stage. According to a report released by Reuters on Monday, the Trump family further consolidated their control over World Liberty in January by establishing WLF Holdco LLC. DT Marks DeFi LLC, an affiliate entity of Trump and some of his family members, holds 60% of the shares of the new company WLF Holdco LLC, while WLF Holdco LLC holds the sole membership interest in WLFI, responsible for overseeing the development and operation of the WLFI governance platform. Although it is currently unclear who owns the remaining 40%, this adjustment seems to no longer make WLFI co-founders Zak Folkman and Chase Herro the controllers of the platform.

Trump Administration's Designation of Cartels as Terrorist Organizations Raises Concerns for Crypto Industry
Written by Genny Ngai and Will Roth from Morrison Cohen LLP, the Trump administration has labeled drug and violent cartels as Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs) and Specially Designated Global Terrorists (SDGTs) since taking office. President Trump's orders to eliminate these cartels pose a significant threat to the cryptocurrency industry, potentially leading to unintended consequences for the digital asset community. The recent legal action against cryptocurrency companies, such as Binance, for aiding terrorist groups highlights the need for vigilance and compliance with anti-terrorism laws in the industry. As drug cartels are now considered terrorist organizations, crypto companies should be prepared for potential lawsuits and ensure they are not inadvertently involved in illegal activities.
