▌Australian court rules Qoin issuer BPS Financial faces 4 charges
The Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) has won a court case against BPS Financial. The company was accused of fraud in relation to its cashless payment facility powered by the Qoin token.
The Federal Court of Australia found that BPS made four false claims. Specifically, BPS claimed that Qoin was registered or approved by the government, legally complaintable, freely redeemable for other crypto assets or fiat currencies, and accepted by a growing network of merchants.
The court ruled that BPS had violated the Corporations Act and the Australian Securities and Investments Commission Act. It ordered the parties to agree on next steps, which could include penalties, before another hearing this year.
BPS launched Qoin in January 2020. According to its website, the Qoin ecosystem consists of tokens, blockchain, wallets and "payment facilities." It added that Qoin has more than 100,000 users and 36,000 registered merchants, and as of the end of June 2021, there were 394 million Qoin tokens in circulation.

▌What isEthereum Futures ETF?
Ethereum futures ETFs are investment funds that track Ethereum futures contracts rather than Ethereum itself. In 2021, Canada launched the first Ethereum futures ETFs. Although futures-based ETFs have been approved, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has not approved spot Ethereum ETFs in the country. Asset management companies regulate Ethereum futures ETFs. The main issuers that offer Ethereum futures ETFs are Bitwise, VanEck, and ProShares. These companies handle the complex issues involved in purchasing and disposing of futures contracts, controlling rollovers to retain risk exposure, and ensuring that ETFs comply with legal requirements.
