The UK market regulator proposes shortening the initial public offering (IPO) process by one week to enhance London’s attractiveness as a hub for new stock listings.

The UK Financial Conduct Authority launched a consultation on Monday, proposing to remove the seven-day interval between a transaction announcement and the start of marketing by investment banks, thereby shortening the public phase of IPOs. The authority is also reviewing rules that require companies to provide independent analysts with the same information as transaction parties. These proposals would overturn rules introduced in 2018, which aimed to bring in external research and offer investors a more independent perspective, but also made London IPOs more susceptible to market sentiment before completion. Regulatory director Jon Relleen stated: "Market feedback shows these rules have not delivered the expected benefits and have instead increased risk, cost, and complexity." The consultation will run until May 29.

Spark Protocol releases Q1 2026 financial report, with net protocol surplus reaching $3.46 million

Foresight News reports that the DeFi lending protocol Spark has released its financial report for the first quarter of 2026. The report shows that total protocol revenue for Q1 was 31.5 million USD (down 31% quarter-on-quarter), with net protocol income at 6.91 million USD (down 30% quarter-on-quarter), and net protocol surplus at 3.46 million USD (down 47% quarter-on-quarter). By the end of the quarter, the protocol treasury reached 46.1 million USD (up 5.7% quarter-on-quarter).

Regarding SLL, the average deployed capital was 1.93 billion USD, with an average annualized return of 5.8%.

Within the quarter, SparkLend’s reserve factor income was 156,000 USD, with the USDT deposit balance reaching 285 million USD by the end of March.

Tether launches Bitcoin mining development kit (MDK), supporting cross-platform and modular control

Foresight News reports that Tether has announced the launch of the Bitcoin Mining Development Kit (MDK), an open-source full-stack development framework designed to provide unified control over mining infrastructure for Bitcoin miners and developers.

The framework does not restrict hardware or vendors, supports running on Windows, macOS, and Linux systems, and allows operators ranging from home miners to gigawatt-scale facilities to monitor and control their infrastructure, avoiding vendor lock-in. MDK introduces a capability-based architecture, coordinating device functions with independent modules via a central orchestration layer. Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino stated that MDK is an important advancement following the open-source Mining Operating System (MOS) and will serve as the foundational framework for building MOS and other mining applications, driving automation and optimization of mining processes.
