COVID-19 Scenario:

  • The global X-ray security screening market experienced a significant impact from the COVID-19 pandemic. The demand for security screening systems at airports and transportation hubs decreased with travel restrictions and border closures. In addition, delayed infrastructure projects and budget constraints further affected market growth.
  • However, the pandemic highlighted the importance of safety and security and generated a growing interest in advanced screening technologies. In response, X-ray security screening vendors introduced touchless and contactless solutions to address health concerns. As restrictions eased, airports and malls implemented non-contact methods like X-ray screening and automated checkpoints. Thus, this increases the X-ray security screening industry’s growth.

The People Screening Segment to maintain its Leadership Status during the forecast period

Based on application, the people screening segment held the major share in 2022, accounting for more than three-fifths of the global x-ray security screening market revenue, and it is expected to maintain its leadership status during the forecast period. The continuous demand for enhanced security measures in high-risk locations, such as airports and government buildings, drives the sustained growth of people screening applications. On the other hand, the product screening segment would display the highest CAGR of 10.4% from 2023 to 2032. Factors contributing to its dominance include the increasing need for stringent security measures in response to rising security threats and the growing importance of securing supply chains and critical infrastructure in various industries, such as logistics and manufacturing.

The Transit Segment is Projected to Rule the Roost by 2032

Based on end use, the transit segment held the largest share in 2022, contributing to nearly two-fifths of the global x-ray security screening market revenue, and is projected to rule the roost by 2032. The same segment would also showcase the fastest CAGR of 10.05% from 2023 to 2032. The remarkable growth of the transit segment can be attributed to several factors. Its continued dominance is fueled by increasing global passenger numbers and growing security concerns. The introduction of innovative screening technologies, such as walk-through body scanners and baggage screening systems, contributes to its remarkable growth.  

North America to Maintain its Dominance Throughout the Forecast Period

Based on region, North America held the highest market share in 2022, garnering nearly two-fifths of the global x-ray security screening market revenue, and is expected to maintain its dominance throughout the forecast period. The growth is attributed to advanced screening technologies, investments in security infrastructure, and the presence of major airports. However, the Asia-Pacific region is expected to witness the fastest CAGR of 10.56% from 2023 to 2032. This is due to rapid urbanization, population growth, and increased critical infrastructure, which drive the demand for X-ray security screening solutions. Additionally, significant economic development, international trade activities, and government investments in advanced security scanners further fuel market growth in the region.

Bullish partners with the Gibraltar Government and GFSC to pioneer world’s first crypto clearing regulation

Published

on

bullish-partners-with-the-gibraltar-government-and-gfsc-to-pioneer-world’s-first-crypto-clearing-regulation

GIBRALTAR, May 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Bullish, one of the fastest-growing regulated virtual asset exchanges, today announced its partnership with the Gibraltar Government and the Gibraltar Financial Services Commission (GFSC) to develop the world’s first regulation for the clearing and settlement of derivative contracts settled in virtual assets. This innovation will enable virtual asset derivative contracts to be cleared and settled in virtual assets by a recognized clearing house for the first time. This groundbreaking initiative moves beyond the limitations of traditional fiat-based clearing and settlement infrastructure and marks a significant milestone in the evolution of virtual asset regulation.

Over the past six months, Bullish and the GFSC have collaborated and agreed to create a regulatory framework that seamlessly adapts traditional finance clearing regulations with the unique requirements and capabilities of the virtual asset market.

For example, under the proposed clearing framework, select virtual assets may be eligible as collateral and settlement currency. The selection criteria will follow the principles underpinning existing traditional clearing regulations. Additionally, the framework will expand the range of institutions authorized to hold collateral, enhancing market integrity and participation while mitigating key risks.

Setting the standard for a crypto clearing solution

Major virtual asset exchanges have been performing the clearing function without appropriate regulatory oversight, leading to failures impacting customers. The proposed regime introduces a regulated clearing house entity, separate and independent from the exchange and its participants, with improved transparency and capitalization to strengthen market infrastructure protection.

In a separate announcement, His Majesty’s Government of Gibraltar expressed its enthusiasm for the framework, which fosters trust, resilience, and integrity in virtual asset markets. Bullish warmly welcomes their announcement and is excited to work alongside the government and GFSC to bring this groundbreaking regulatory framework to fruition.

“There is currently no regulation that specifically addresses the clearing needs of the crypto industry. We aim to change that by introducing a framework that manages risk for virtual asset trading and is aligned with traditional market infrastructure standards,” said Tom Farley, Bullish Group CEO. “While Central Counterparties have become more robust in other asset classes, this initiative will bring that same robust risk management and regulatory oversight to the crypto clearing space that EMIR & Dodd-Frank brought to traditional derivatives markets. We welcome the announcement from the government of Gibraltar and look forward to introducing our joint proposal to the market.”

The Hon Nigel Feetham KC MP, Minister for Financial Services adds, “Gibraltar is renowned for pioneering clear regulation and embracing forward-looking technology, being the first jurisdiction globally to introduce legislation for firms using Distributed Ledger Technology. We are excited to deepen our relationship with Bullish and to introduce this unprecedented virtual asset clearing solution to the market.”

Bullish exchange poised to become first regulated virtual asset clearing house globally

In anticipation of the new framework, Bullish plans to introduce its Clearing Services offering alongside Options trading later this year. This initial launch will integrate a variety of clearing benefits into the market as Bullish moves toward establishing a standalone clearing house under the new regulatory framework. With licenses from the GFSC, the German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin), and the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC), Bullish is well-positioned to set the standard for virtual asset clearing solutions.

“Our long-term goal is to establish a robust regulatory framework that not only meets the current needs of the virtual asset ecosystem but also anticipates future developments. This initiative underscores our commitment to operating a regulated, compliant exchange that supports institutional participation with an end-to-end clearing solution,” said Randi Abernethy, Head of Clearing and Group Risk at Bullish. “Several market participants have already voiced strong support for our business model because they recognize the value of regulated central clearing. We look forward to Bullish becoming the first operational regulated digital assets clearing house in the world.”

In advance of this, Bullish will form a clearing member working group to bring industry leaders together to share their expertise, establish the initial clearing network, and enhance the robustness of Bullish’s clearing ecosystem.

Blocks & Headlines: Today in Blockchain – May 12, 2025 | Rootstock, Zimbabwe Carbon Registry, Fastex, 21Shares, The Blockchain Group

Published

on

blocks-&-headlines:-today-in-blockchain-–-may-12,-2025-|-rootstock,-zimbabwe-carbon-registry,-fastex,-21shares,-the-blockchain-group

 

Welcome to Blocks & Headlines, your daily op-ed style deep dive into the most pivotal blockchain and crypto stories shaping today’s market. In this edition—May 12, 2025—we cover:

  1. Bitcoin DeFi Security Strengthens as Rootstock garners 81% of Bitcoin’s hashrate

  2. Zimbabwe’s Blockchain Carbon Credit Registry aims to restore investor trust

  3. Token2049 Dubai Highlights spotlight Fastex’s Web3 innovations

  4. 21Shares’ New ETP for Cronos (CRO) bridges traditional finance and DeFi

  5. The Blockchain Group’s €9.9 M Capital Raise fuels its Bitcoin treasury strategy

Below, each story is summarized with key takeaways and opinion-driven context.


Introduction

Today’s blockchain landscape is defined by two contrasting forces: institutional maturation—as legacy players and governments adopt tokenized assets and infrastructure—and startup-driven innovation—where Web3 pioneers push boundaries in DeFi, NFTs, and on-chain governance. Major trends include:

Advertisement
  • Security & Scalability: Layer-2 solutions and cross-chain bridges are gaining traction to secure and scale Bitcoin and Ethereum ecosystems.

  • Transparency & Trust: From carbon credits to capital markets, blockchain is repeatedly chosen to enhance auditability and investor confidence.

  • Mainstream Access: Crypto ETPs and regulated token offerings are lowering barriers for retail and institutional investors.

  • Treasury Management: Public companies are increasingly using Bitcoin and token holdings as strategic assets to hedge against macro volatility.

Let’s unpack today’s five developments and their broader implications.


1. Bitcoin DeFi Security Strengthens with Rootstock’s Hashrate Share

What happened: A new Messari report finds that Rootstock (RSK), Bitcoin’s oldest layer-2 smart-contract platform, now commands 81% of Bitcoin’s total hashrate, up from 56% before major mining pools Foundry and SpiderPool onboarded in February. Transactions on Rootstock are 95% cheaper than on-chain Bitcoin and 55% cheaper than Ethereum, positioning RSK for sustained DeFi growth in 2025.
Source: CoinDesk

Analysis & commentary:
Rootstock’s dominant hashrate share underscores two key shifts:

  1. Security by Convergence: By leveraging Bitcoin’s massive mining network, RSK mitigates the common 51% risk faced by smaller chains.

  2. Cost-Efficiency for DeFi: Lower fees make RSK an attractive alternative to Ethereum for yield protocols, lending markets, and decentralized exchanges.

However, challenges remain. Smart-contract developers must integrate robust cross-chain bridges—Rootstock’s partnership with LayerZero is a start—to attract liquidity. Moreover, regulatory scrutiny of DeFi is rising; RSK’s governance will need transparent on-chain dispute resolution and compliance tooling to win institutional adoption.


2. Zimbabwe’s Blockchain Carbon Credit Registry to Revive Investor Confidence

What happened: In Harare on May 9, the Zimbabwean government launched the world’s first blockchain-enabled carbon credit registry, developed by Dubai’s A6 Labs. The immutable ledger will record issuance, trading, and retirement of credits, addressing the fallout from 2023’s abrupt project cancellations and a 50% revenue levy that spooked developers. The new Zimbabwe Carbon Markets Authority (ZCMA) will oversee licensing via the zicma.org.zw portal.
Source: Bloomberg

Analysis & commentary:
Zimbabwe’s registry is an instructive case study in how blockchain can restore transparency and rebuild market trust:

  • Immutable Audits: Every credit’s provenance is verifiable on-chain, deterring double-counting and fraud.

  • Regulatory Framework: A dedicated authority streamlines approvals, balancing market access with environmental integrity.

  • Investor Reassurance: By codifying rules in smart contracts, Zimbabwe signals that future policy shifts will be governed by code, not sudden ministerial edict.

Nonetheless, blockchain is not a panacea. Effective enforcement still depends on reliable on-the-ground measurement and reporting. The real test will be whether smaller African producers—Kenya, Zambia—adopt interoperable registries, creating a pan-continental carbon marketplace.


3. Web3 Innovation Takes Center Stage at Token2049 Dubai

What happened: Between April 30 and May 1, Token2049 Dubai convened industry leaders in the Emirates. Fastex, a platinum sponsor, showcased its Bahamut blockchain (PoSA consensus), the YoWallet custodial solution, and a wave of new apps—YoHealth, YoPhone/YoSIM, YoBlog—all designed to expand Web3 use cases beyond finance. Fastex also co-hosted regulatory forums with Solidus Labs and launched the Bahamut Grants program to seed developer innovation.
Source: Cointelegraph

Analysis & commentary:
Token2049’s Dubai edition highlights an ecosystem maturation where:

  • Compliance & Growth Coexist: Legal breakfasts signaled that self-regulation and layered oversight can lower entry barriers without stifling ingenuity.

  • Beyond Finance: By unveiling telecom and health apps, Fastex challenges the notion that blockchain is niche—real-world use cases can drive mainstream adoption.

  • Brand Ambassadors: Football legend Patrice Evra’s presence at YoHealth’s booth illustrates how cultural icons can amplify blockchain’s reach.

Moving forward, projects must demonstrate measurable end-user utility and scalable infrastructure to avoid the “pilot-only” trap. Dubai’s supportive regulatory sandbox remains an ideal proving ground.

4. 21Shares Launches ETP for Cronos (CRO) – Bridging TradFi and DeFi

What happened: Swiss issuer 21Shares listed a new ETP (CRON) on May 12, offering direct exposure to CRO, the native token of Cronos—a Layer 1 chain built for DeFi, NFTs, and cross-chain interoperability with Ethereum and Cosmos. Investors can now trade CRO through regular brokerages without managing private keys or wallets.
Source: The Paypers

Analysis & commentary:
Tokenizing blockchain assets into regulated ETPs remains one of the most powerful drivers of institutional capital inflows:

  • Familiar Interfaces: By packaging CRO as a ticker, 21Shares lowers the learning curve for asset managers and pension funds.

  • Regulatory Alignment: ETPs fall under securities law, offering clear governance compared to unregulated spot tokens.

  • Ecosystem Growth: Cronos stands to benefit from increased liquidity and brand recognition, which in turn fuels DeFi activity on its network.

ETPs also invite scrutiny: fees, redemption mechanics, and underlying custodial risks must be transparent to preserve investor trust. As competition heats up—with products for BTC, ETH, SOL, and more—issuers will vie on pricing, ease of access, and institutional credibility.


5. The Blockchain Group’s €9.9 M Capital Raise Advances Bitcoin Treasury Strategy

What happened: Europe’s first Bitcoin Treasury Company, The Blockchain Group (ALTBG), completed a €9.888 million capital increase at €1.0932 per share on May 7, 2025. Proceeds will bolster its strategy to accumulate Bitcoin per fully diluted share while expanding consulting and AI-driven blockchain services.
Source: ActusNews via MarketScreener

Analysis & commentary:
The Blockchain Group’s financing round underscores a new corporate paradigm where holding BTC is core to the business model:

Advertisement
  • Shareholder Alignment: By tethering equity value to Bitcoin accumulation, management and investors share upside in crypto markets.

  • Operational Synergies: Subsidiaries in data intelligence and decentralized consulting can monetize both service fees and on-balance-sheet Bitcoin appreciation.

  • Regulatory Compliance: As a publicly listed entity on Euronext Growth Paris, ALTBG navigates EU financial rules, offering a transparent vehicle for crypto exposure.

Yet this approach carries volatility risk: sudden BTC price swings can compress earnings per share and spur shareholder activism. Mitigation strategies—such as hedged derivatives and staggered BTC purchases—will be critical to sustain growth without alarming investors.


Conclusion

Today’s highlights reveal a blockchain industry at once foundational and frontier:

  1. Security & Scale: Rootstock’s hashrate gains fortify Bitcoin DeFi’s underpinnings.

  2. Transparent Markets: Zimbabwe’s carbon registry sets a template for blockchain-backed commodity markets.

  3. Web3 Diversification: Token2049 Dubai shows that true mass adoption demands real-world applications in health, telecom, and beyond.

  4. Institutional Access: ETPs like CRON democratize token ownership for mainstream investors.

  5. On-Balance-Sheet Crypto: The Blockchain Group exemplifies the rising class of publicly traded crypto-native firms.

As blockchain extends into supply chains, tokenized securities, and identity, the winners will be those who blend innovative protocol design with pragmatic regulatory alignment. Keep tuning into Blocks & Headlines for tomorrow’s top stories.
