South Korea's political disputes intensify, President Yoon Seok-yeol declares "emergency martial law" late at night

South Korean President Yoon Seok-yeol suddenly made a live TV speech tonight, announcing the implementation of "emergency martial law". Yoon Seok-yeol listed a number of reasons, saying that the opposition party was coercing the parliament and disrupting the country, and said that he would purge "anti-national forces" in South Korea. The specific martial law measures are still unknown. Outside analysts believe that the recent series of legislation promoted by the South Korean opposition party against the president's wife and the impeachment of public officials such as prosecutors may be the fuse for Yoon Seok-yeol's announcement of "emergency martial law".

1. The Blast community proposed to use $36 million in revenue to repurchase BLAST tokens each year

The community of Ethereum Layer2 network Blast has published a proposal titled "Buy Back BLAST Tokens and Get Yields", which states that Blast has a narrative problem and to solve this problem, it is necessary to focus on prices; it proposes to convert earnings into BLAST tokens and use these earnings through buybacks. Depositors will retain the full value of their earnings: instead of receiving ETH or USDB, they will immediately receive liquid BLAST tokens. The proposal states that there are currently $1.2 billion in earnings assets on Blast L2. A conservative estimate of an annual yield of 3% would generate $36 million per year, which could be used to purchase BLAST on the open market, equivalent to a bid of about $100,000 per day. At current prices, this bid would cause the price to fluctuate by +4.8% per day.

It is reported that this proposal will result in $36 million of buying pressure on $BLAST tokens per year, and will also make user acquisition and engagement activities more effective, thereby recalling users/builders and starting another growth flywheel, laying the foundation for the release of the mobile application.
