Australia's employment rebounds in May and the unemployment rate drops slightly

Golden Ten Data reported on June 25 that data released on Thursday showed Australia's job market rebounded in May, and the unemployment rate fell from its highest level in four and a half years. This indicates increased economic resilience, which could support further interest rate hikes if necessary. According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, net employment increased by 40,300 in May compared to April, while the revised net employment for April was 40,600. This figure exceeded the market expectation of a 30,000 recovery but was partially offset by the significant downward revision of the April data. The unemployment rate fell as expected from 4.5% to 4.4%, and the labor force participation rate rose slightly to 66.7%. However, total hours worked in May saw a sharp decline of 1.1%.

Humanity Protocol completes over 540 million token vesting preparations; the "3:10" plan will start unlocking on June 25

According to ChainCatcher, on-chain data monitoring shows that Humanity Protocol ($H) Foundation-related addresses have completed the scheduled token transfers, involving the “3:10” structured hedging and profit-taking plan for early investors, with over 540 million tokens transferred. According to the previously announced timetable, these tokens will officially begin their unlocking process on June 25, marking that the plan has completed pre-payment preparations and entered the formal execution stage.

Previously, Humanity Protocol went through a series of ecosystem recovery procedures due to a hacker attack, including a 1:1 swap of old and new tokens for real exchange users, and implemented KYC and AML compliance verification on abnormal on-chain minted chips generated after the attack to reduce market circulation risks. The on-schedule progress of this unlocking plan is seen as an important step for the project to fulfill its promises to investors and restore ecosystem order following the security incident.

Humanity Protocol mainly focuses on AI identity verification and Web3 identity infrastructure. As the demand for AI agents, real-person verification, Sybil-resistance, and on-chain identity applications continues to grow, this sector still possesses long-term development potential. If Humanity Protocol can continue to advance product and application implementation after completing token migration and ecological recovery, its subsequent performance will continue to attract market attention.
