Odaily reported that the TRON Nile testnet has launched a quantum-resistant upgrade and released the mandatory upgrade version GreatVoyage-v4.8.2-PQ1-build1. This version introduces post-quantum signature capabilities for the first time, supporting two signature algorithms: Falcon-512 and ML-DSA-44, further advancing TRON's technical exploration and capability verification in the field of quantum-resistant security. According to the official statement, these capabilities can be applied to transaction signatures, SR block signatures, P2P relay node handshakes, and TVM contract signature verification scenarios. TRON reminds developers who have already deployed Nile testnet nodes to complete the version upgrade as soon as possible. At the same time, the related new features must be approved through proposal voting before they can officially take effect on the Nile testnet; enabling the function on the testnet does not mean the mainnet will be updated simultaneously.

```htmlGolden Ten Data reported on July 1st that JuanCarlosArtigas, Americas CEO and Global Head of Research at the World Gold Council, stated that the gold market has delivered a clear message this year: gold is truly a global asset. Gold prices reflect macroeconomic and geopolitical dynamics on a worldwide scale, not just limited to the United States, which is one of the reasons why gold offers investors a valuable perspective. Interest rates are certainly important, and we expect them to become one of the key variables in the second half of the year, but gold's performance is not driven by a single factor. This year, gold prices faced pressure around $4,000/ounce, but also rebounded at times, mainly supported by endogenous demand from long-term investors in multiple regions. Structural demand from global central banks, institutional investors, and consumers forms the foundation for gold’s resilience.```

On July 1, the World Gold Council held a mid-year outlook report release conference for the global gold market. Most of the fluctuations in gold prices occur during Asian and U.S. trading hours, reflecting the increasingly important role of Asian investors in global gold price discovery.
