针对韩国金融当局讨论将虚拟资产交易所大股东持股比例限制在 15%–20% 区间的设想，多名学者在 1 月 16 日举行的“稳定币发行与交易基础设施制度化方向”研讨会上表达审慎态度。成均馆大学经营学院教授 文哲宇 指出，强制压缩大股东持股比例可能触及财产权保护问题，存在违宪风险。其同时提到，对比 币安 与 Coinbase 的股权结构，创始人维持较高持股比例在全球范围内并不罕见，相关限制措施或与国际上强调责任经营的趋势相悖。此外，仁川大学教授 金允京 认为，直接通过比例限制干预股权结构手段过于激进，可能削弱行业创新与发展动力。多位与会专家建议，监管层可通过强化大股东资格审查、完善 IPO 相关制度等方式，引导股权分散与合规发展，而非采取强制性剥离安排。（News1）

According to BlockBeats, on January 16, the 228th Ethereum Execution Layer Core Developers Meeting (ACDE) focused on several important topics. The meeting addressed the delay in the BALs Devnet-2 scope decision due to EIP-7843 (slot opcode), which involves both the consensus and execution layers. Additionally, seven proposed EIPs were rejected from inclusion in the Glamsterdam upgrade, while EIP-7954, which proposes increasing contract size from 24KB to 32KB, was considered. The developers also decided to continue finalizing the details of the Glamsterdam upgrade. The discussions were technical and pragmatic, aiming to quickly define the scope to avoid further delays.

According to BlockBeats, on January 16, Kaito founder Yu Hu provided a timeline of recent events on the X platform. He received an email from a client manager on January 13 regarding a potential reassessment and a legal notice from X on January 14, to which he responded the same day. On January 15, he learned of Nikita's content release simultaneously with the public. Yu Hu noted that he had previously received legal notices from X and resolved them appropriately, suggesting that waiting for further clarification and discussion before making unilateral announcements was reasonable during this brief window. Yu Hu also announced that Yaps has been shut down, and Kaito plans to expand beyond the cryptocurrency sector through Kaito Studio by 2026, targeting platforms like TikTok and YouTube. He mentioned that Kaito Studio has been in preparation for several months and will complement Yaps with a new model. This change will not affect Kaito Launchpad, Kaito Pro, Kaito API, or the upcoming Kaito Markets, with more roadmap details to be released in the future.

Google Play 韩国区将禁止未在当地注册的海外加密货币交易所及钱包应用上架或更新。根据 Google 官方政策，加密交易平台及钱包服务商需向韩国金融情报机构 FIU 注册为虚拟资产服务提供商，方可继续在应用商店运营。受该政策影响，自 1 月 28 日起，韩国 Android 用户将无法通过 Google Play 下载或更新未完成注册的海外交易所应用，包括 币安、Bybit 和 OKX 等。目前仅有 Upbit、Bithumb 在内的 27 家本土平台完成注册。报道指出，尽管网页端访问仍可继续，但该举措可能对依赖海外平台进行高杠杆交易、套利及获取更多代币选择的韩国散户投资者造成影响。当地社区已开始流传使用 VPN 或 APK 安装等绕过方式，但相关做法被认为存在较高安全风险。（The Block）
