Meanwhile, the U.S. Senate will hold a key procedural vote on the CLARITY Act on Tuesday local time, and the SEC will hold a roundtable discussion on 24-hour trading on the same day.

ETF Store President: The Future of Cryptocurrency Does Not Depend on the CLARITY Act

According to ChainCatcher, Nate Geraci, President of ETF Store, stated that if the CLARITY Act can secure enough votes this week, it will be beneficial for the industry, but he believes that the act is not a key factor determining the future of cryptocurrency. Under the Trump administration, the SEC and CFTC will use their existing powers to promote the development of cryptocurrency; the CLARITY Act is more about enhancing regulatory certainty to further accelerate industry innovation. The pace of development in the crypto industry far exceeds the policy-making cycle, and by the time U.S. politicians realize that the financial system has been upgraded, it may be difficult to reverse this trend. The CLARITY Act will only serve as a further catalyst, providing clearer policy expectations for the crypto industry by enhancing market confidence that innovative achievements are not easily reversible, but the future of the crypto industry does not depend on whether this act can pass.

Bitfinex: Bitcoin Selling Pressure Drops to One-Year Low, Market Awaits Federal Reserve Interest Rate Decision

According to ChainCatcher, Bitfinex Alpha's latest report shows that Bitcoin has recently maintained a range of about 5.5% for more than 24 consecutive trading days, with a cost basis of about 840,000 BTC located within this range. As profit-taking has noticeably slowed, the risk of sellers has dropped to 7 basis points, one of the lowest levels in the past year, but insufficient buying pressure still limits breakthroughs. Meanwhile, leverage has accumulated at the upper and lower bounds of the range, with about $1.95 billion in short liquidation risk concentrated around $82,000, while there are large long positions in the $75,000 to $76,000 range, which may amplify price volatility following the Federal Reserve's interest rate decision. Bitfinex further pointed out in the report that rising energy costs, higher real yields, and weakening consumer confidence have made the macro environment more complex, and whether BTC can break through the current range still depends on Federal Reserve policy guidance and the subsequent trends in real yields and energy prices.

EU Cyber Resilience Act Takes Effect, Crypto Wallet Providers Must Report Vulnerabilities Within 24 Hours

According to ChainCatcher, as reported by Cointelegraph, the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) officially took effect on September 11, requiring crypto hardware and software wallet providers to submit early warning reports within 24 hours of discovering actively exploited vulnerabilities or serious security flaws, and to submit complete notifications within 72 hours. Manufacturers must also submit final reports within 14 days after taking corrective or mitigating measures, and serious incidents must be reported within a month. The European Commission stated that the new reporting requirements aim to better protect consumers and businesses from cyber threats and apply to all "products containing digital elements" sold in the EU market, building on the EU's broader cybersecurity strategy. According to the penalty provisions in the final draft, companies that fail to comply with Articles 13 and 14 may face administrative fines of up to €15 million (approximately $17.3 million) or 2.5% of their global annual turnover, whichever is higher; providing incorrect, incomplete, or misleading information may also result in fines of up to €5 million. Prior to this measure, several hardware wallet manufacturers recently disclosed user data breach incidents. On September 4, Trezor revealed that a data breach affecting its logistics provider ShipMonk impacted approximately 67,000 U.S. customers, exceeding the initial estimate of 14,000; this week, Trezor and BitBox also warned users to be cautious of phishing emails disguised as urgent security notifications. In June, Layer-1 blockchain network Zilliqa warned of a vulnerability in its Ledger application, where attackers could exploit publicly available on-chain data to recover user private keys.

Opinion: Binance Captures RWA Perpetual Market, HYPE Price May Come Under Pressure

According to ChainCatcher, as reported by Cointelegraph, Alice Liu, Head of Research at CoinMarketCap, stated in Cointelegraph's Trade Secrets program that Bitcoin may have already reached its bottom and is unlikely to drop back to the low levels it hovered at for most of the year recently. She noted that Bitcoin fell to about $59,000 in June, down about 53% from the historical high of $126,100 in October, while at the beginning of September, Bitcoin briefly reached $81,600, rising about 28% since mid-August, driving the CoinMarketCap Fear and Greed Index back into the greed zone. Speaking about Hyperliquid, Liu mentioned that network activity does not necessarily translate into token prices. She observed that trading of RWA perpetual contracts anchored to tokenized stocks, ETFs, and indices had primarily taken place on Hyperliquid over the past two months, but after Binance launched RWA perpetual contracts, trading volume and liquidity quickly shifted, with Binance capturing about 50% market share, although Hyperliquid still maintains a lead in the DEX space. HYPE recently reached an all-time high of $86, and Hyperliquid has spent over $400 million on token buybacks, with price momentum partially supported by buybacks, but HYPE's price relies on continuous inflow of network revenue to support buybacks, which is a key observation point.

CoinShares Reports $51.4 Million in Revenue and a Net Loss of $23.9 Million for the First Half of the Year

According to ChainCatcher, as reported by GlobeNewswire, digital asset management company CoinShares PLC announced its performance for the first half of the year ending June 30, 2026.

During the period, the group had a net inflow of $27.6 million, with CoinShares Physical net inflow of $155.9 million, while the traditional CoinShares XBT Provider platform had a net outflow of $104.6 million. The operating loss was $5.1 million, with segment EBITDA of $21.6 million. The net loss was $23.9 million, which included an unrealized loss of $16.6 million from XBT pricing differences and an unrealized loss of $15.4 million from inventory digital asset holdings. Net assets were approximately $453 million, with no long-term debt and an available capital position of approximately $413.9 million. The board plans to seek shareholder authorization for a share buyback program at a special shareholders' meeting on September 15, 2026. The company launched its first Bitcoin mining UCITS ETF in July and completed the acquisition of Bastion in early September.

AI Startup Temporal Completes $550 Million Late-Stage Financing at a Valuation of $12.55 Billion, Led by Lightspeed Venture Partners

According to ChainCatcher, as reported by Reuters, AI startup Temporal announced the completion of $550 million in late-stage financing, with its valuation more than doubling to $12.55 billion in seven months. This round was led by Lightspeed Venture Partners, with Wellington Management, Goldman Sachs Alternatives' Growth Equity, and Tiger Global participating as co-leads, and SV Angel and T. Rowe Price Associates' advisory accounts also participated, while existing investors Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), Sequoia Capital, and GIC continued to invest. The funds will be used to expand global operations and deepen platform development. Temporal was founded in 2019 and develops open-source software to help applications, including AI agents, recover from failures, reducing the need for engineers to write custom recovery code. Its clients include OpenAI, Snap, Nvidia, Netflix, and JPMorgan Chase. The company has 570 employees and an annual revenue run rate of over $250 million, more than doubling year-on-year. In February of this year, the company completed a $300 million financing led by a16z at a valuation of $5 billion.

Kraken Launches xStocks Vault, Allowing Tokenized Stocks to Earn Yield

ChainCatcher news, according to The Defiant, Kraken has launched three xStocks vaults, allowing eligible customers to deposit SPYx, QQQx, and NVDAx into the vaults while earning floating returns while retaining exposure to tokenized stocks or ETFs. The vaults initially show an estimated net APY of 2% for SPYx and QQQx, and 1.8% for NVDAx. Kraken charges a 25% performance fee on vault earnings, and the displayed interest rates have already deducted this fee; rewards will be converted into the same type of xStock and automatically reinvested into the customer's balance. The strategy is designed by Sentora, which is responsible for risk management, while Veda provides the vault infrastructure. After customers deposit xStock, Kraken transfers it to an embedded self-custody wallet on Ink, packages it, and deposits it into the Veda vault; Sentora then cross-chain transfers the packaged xStock to Solana and deposits it as collateral in the Kamino lending market, borrowing stablecoins and deploying them into selected DeFi strategies, with earnings ultimately converted back into the deposited xStock. Customers do not need an external wallet or mnemonic phrase but can export their private keys; redemptions require a three-day wait for funds to arrive. Kraken's documentation shows that the strategy uses leverage to generate returns by borrowing stablecoins and lists risks such as smart contracts, liquidity, bad debts, liquidation, cross-chain execution, and downstream assets, with losses shared proportionally among vault users. xStock holders do not have voting rights, dividend rights, or legal claims on the underlying stocks. The vaults are currently available to the European Economic Area and other supported open markets; users from the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, the United Arab Emirates, and sanctioned countries cannot use them.

WTO: Stablecoins account for only 3% of global payments, fragmented regulatory framework is the main constraint

ChainCatcher news, according to Cointelegraph, Juan Marchetti, Director of the Trade in Services and Investment Division of the World Trade Organization (WTO), stated at the release event of the WTO stablecoin trade research report in Geneva that the key obstacle to the widespread adoption of stablecoins in international trade is not technology, but the lack and fragmentation of regulatory frameworks. He cited a report from the Financial Stability Board (FSB) in October 2025, which indicated that among the 28 jurisdictions surveyed, only 11 (about 39%) have completed the establishment of a stablecoin regulatory framework. The WTO report shows that stablecoins currently account for only 3% of the total global international payments, but from 2020 to mid-2024, the scale of stablecoin cross-border payments has grown 35 times. The report also points out that stablecoins are expected to improve five major pain points in international trade financing: high costs, low speed, limited access, lack of transparency, and foreign exchange conversion.

Grayscale launches digital asset model portfolios

ChainCatcher news, according to GlobeNewswire, Grayscale Investments announced the launch of Grayscale Model Portfolios. This series consists of professionally constructed model portfolios that provide recommended allocations for the digital asset ecosystem, each designed around different investment objectives, expanding its advisor-facing products in a portfolio manner. Laurie Katz, Grayscale's Global Distribution Head, stated: Advisors are increasingly looking to incorporate digital assets into client portfolios without having to build and maintain allocations item by item; this product combines portfolio construction expertise with over a decade of digital asset experience, allowing advisors to provide digital asset exposure through a single familiar framework. Each model incorporates multiple digital asset exchange-traded products into a single strategy, covering asset selection, position sizing, diversified allocations, and rebalancing. Grayscale Advisors, LLC delivers the models to financial platforms for advisors to implement in client accounts, with advisors retaining full discretion. The four initial strategies are all market cap weighted, rebalanced quarterly, with a single asset weight cap of 40%, including Digital Assets Core Plus, Digital Assets Leaders, Digital Assets Next Gen, and Digital Assets Infrastructure. Digital Assets Core Plus is based on Bitcoin and Ethereum and includes assets like Solana and Chainlink.

Dogecoin ETF demand sluggish, Bitwise announces closure of BWOW fund

ChainCatcher news, according to CoinDesk data, three U.S. Dogecoin ETFs have seen a total net inflow of only about $12 million over the past 10 months, while the XRP fund attracted $12.29 million in a single day on September 9. Out of the 199 trading days covered in the statistics, the Dogecoin fund had zero net flow on 166 days, accounting for over 83%, and recorded a net outflow of about $108,000 from August 13 to September 10. In contrast, since its launch in November 2025, the XRP fund has accumulated a net inflow of $1.7 billion, and the SOL fund has raised $1.36 billion since its launch in October 2025, both exceeding the total amount of the Dogecoin fund by over 100 times. During the 20 trading days from August 13 to September 10, the XRP fund saw an additional inflow of $190.5 million, and the SOL fund saw inflows of $199 million, while the Dogecoin fund recorded a net outflow. Even with Dogecoin's price rising over 30% in the last two weeks of August, this situation did not significantly change. Weak demand has led to a contraction in the product line. Cryptocurrency asset management firm Bitwise announced it would close its Dogecoin ETF BWOW, which has been in operation for less than a year since its launch in November 2025, with assets totaling only $687,700 as of September 9, and is expected to stop trading on October 14, with remaining shareholders receiving cash on October 22. A Bitwise spokesperson stated that the company decided to liquidate the fund to continue optimizing its product line to meet the changing needs of investors.

Korean investors petition for a fourth delay of crypto tax, regulators insist on timely implementation

ChainCatcher news, Korean investors are once again pushing for a delay of the cryptocurrency capital gains tax scheduled to be implemented on January 1, 2027, but regulators insist on proceeding as planned. According to the electronic petition system of the National Assembly of Korea, a petition requesting a two-year delay of the crypto tax plan has received 50,000 valid signatures, reaching the legislative review threshold and will be automatically submitted for review by the relevant standing committee. Korea plans to impose a 22% tax (including a 20% basic tax rate and a 2% local tax) on the portion of annual income from digital assets exceeding 2.5 million Korean won (approximately $1,856), covering income from the sale, transfer, and lending of cryptocurrency assets. This tax has been postponed three times since it was first discussed in 2022. Petitioners state that most crypto investors are suffering significant losses, with major Korean crypto companies experiencing a decline in operating profits of up to 90%; imposing taxes at this time would kick young people off the wealth ladder and may push investors towards offshore platforms. In May of this year, a petition to abolish the crypto tax reached the 50,000 signature threshold within eight days of submission but did not progress further. Meanwhile, the government remains firm, with the nominee for Minister of Economy and Finance, Lee Hyung-ik, stating last weekend that the crypto tax plan is proceeding as scheduled, and the National Tax Service will announce detailed tax standards later this year.

Korean media: China's semiconductor industry is promoted by government banks and enterprises in a team system

ChainCatcher news, according to South Korea's JoongAng Ilbo, China's semiconductor industry is promoted through collaboration among the central government, local governments, state-owned financial institutions, and enterprises, forming a team system for fundraising, factory construction, and infrastructure support. The first phase of China's National Integrated Circuit Industry Investment Fund is 138.7 billion yuan, the second phase is 204 billion yuan, and the third phase is 344 billion yuan, totaling 686.7 billion yuan, with funds invested in companies like SMIC, Huahong Semiconductor, and Yangtze Memory Technologies. Changxin Memory, established for 10 years, has risen to fourth in the global DRAM market share, with a net loss of 21.13 billion yuan over the past three years, while R&D and equipment investment during the same period reached 185.2 billion yuan, with state-owned capital from Hefei providing about 80% of the funding in early projects. South Korea's Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix are responsible for investment, employment, technology development, and support for partners. The South Korean government plans to guide 622 trillion won in private investment by 2047 and provide 17 trillion won in low-interest loans and 1.1 trillion won in semiconductor ecosystem funds, but most of the burden will fall on enterprises. Park Gyeong-soo, Executive Vice President of the Korea Semiconductor Industry Association, stated: The semiconductor industry will fall behind in the next upturn if investment stops; even during downturns, R&D, equipment investment, and orders for materials and components must be maintained, requiring long-term policy, financial, and tax support. China is catching up with a state-level support system, and South Korea also needs a response system involving the government, political circles, financial institutions, and enterprises to act together.

This financing is intended to support tZERO's ongoing advancement of its infrastructure and serve as a transition for the company towards independent operations.

Jefferies expects the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates this week, comments from Waller are key

ChainCatcher news, Jefferies global economist Mohit Kumar stated in a report that the Federal Reserve is expected to raise interest rates this week, and he believes that comments from Waller will be key. He said: "We expect the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates, but Waller's comments on the future policy direction will be crucial." Regarding further rate hikes, Jefferies believes that the Federal Reserve's actual actions will be fewer than the 3.5 rate hikes anticipated by the forward market. Kumar said: "From a credibility standpoint, the first rate hike may be necessary, but subsequent hikes will depend on how long the war lasts and the trend of oil prices."

Mechamand CEO Shao Tianlan: As embodied intelligence heats up, we must be wary of short-termism

ChainCatcher news, the industrial robot and embodied intelligence company Mechamand, known as the "first stock of embodied intelligent eyes, brains, and hands," will be listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on September 1, 2026. Founder and CEO Shao Tianlan stated that going public is just a step; what truly matters is that the company becomes a public entity. He still considers himself an engineer, spending about half of his time on core technology, application scenarios, and product iterations. Shao Tianlan pointed out that some embodied intelligence companies rely on data collection centers and industrial projects to generate revenue, with insufficient commercialization validation, describing companies that enter the public market prematurely as "secondary market primary." He believes this is a short-sighted approach that could cause significant harm to technology startups, China's innovation ecosystem, and the health of the capital market. Shao Tianlan positions Mechamand as a new technology-driven enterprise, with the expected management principles being pragmatic, not exaggerated, and not deceptive, hoping to become a key general intelligent component similar to Microsoft and Siemens in the era of embodied intelligence. This IPO has attracted participation from several long-term funds and industrial capital, including Baillie Gifford.

U.S. Senate Republicans Release Final Version of CLARITY Bill, Trump Agrees to About 80% of Ethical Proposals

ChainCatcher news, according to crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett, U.S. Senate Republicans have released a new version of the CLARITY Act text, calling it the "last, best, and final proposal" presented to Democrats before the debate vote ends on Tuesday. The new text includes several adjustments related to ethical standards, BRCA, stablecoin earnings, and provisions related to the Agriculture Committee. Among them, Trump has agreed to about 80% of the Tillis-Gallego ethical proposal, including the sale of "significant" crypto-related financial interests or placing them in a blind trust; the stablecoin earnings section has added a "circuit breaker mechanism," allowing federal regulators to intervene if there is a large-scale flow of community bank deposits into stablecoins, with the relevant judgment to be made by U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. Additionally, the protection scope of BRCA has been narrowed, and the new text further strengthens restrictions on vertical integration, including related transactions and conflicts of interest involving digital commodity exchanges, brokers, and dealers.

Symbiosis Bitcoin Bridge Vulnerability Incident: Hacker Minted Approximately $46.1 Billion in syBTC

ChainCatcher news, on-chain security platform Blockaid discovered a vulnerability in the Bitcoin bridge of the cross-chain protocol Symbiosis, where attackers minted approximately 2^62 syBTC to a newly created externally owned account, valued at about $46.1 billion when calculated to 8 decimal places, and sold about 4.39 WBTC on Ethereum's Uniswap V4, realizing a cash-out of approximately $336,000.

As of September 13, Symbiosis has not publicly disclosed a technical review of BridgeV2, the final loss amount, or whether the attacker accepted the bounty.

Michael Burry: AI Giants' Call to Slow Development is a "Selfish" Act

ChainCatcher news, according to Business Insider, Michael Burry, the prototype character of the movie "The Big Short" and a well-known short-seller, fiercely criticized the statements from OpenAI and Anthropic CEOs calling for a "slowdown in AI development," accusing them of being highly self-serving. Michael Burry listed four core reasons: large language models are not true AI, protecting vested interests, creating hype for IPOs, and concealing the real dilemma of slowing growth. Michael Burry further pointed out that the so-called "active call to slow down" is merely a cover-up for the uncontrollable slowdown in industry growth and the forced delay of IPO plans.

Robinhood CEO Says Issuers Should Not Have Veto Power Over Tokenized Stocks

ChainCatcher news, Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev stated that the company should not have veto power over tokenized stock products, provided that these products do not alter shareholder rights, issuer obligations, or the company's official stock register. Tenev posted on the X platform that whether issuers should participate depends on whether the tokenized products change the rights attached to the underlying stocks or create new obligations for the company and its transfer agents. If so, issuers should participate; but if the products create independent financial instruments that hold or reference freely transferable shares without changing the rights, obligations, or shareholder register of the issuer, then issuer consent is not required. Tenev stated that Robinhood Stock Tokens use a third-party structure, with independently issued instruments backed at a 1:1 ratio by the underlying stocks, providing users with economic exposure to stocks and ETFs without altering the issuer's equity structure or stock rights. He said, "Going on-chain should not grant issuers veto power they never had off-chain." Previously, AMC Entertainment CEO Adam Aron criticized Robinhood's tokenized stock products on September 4, stating that AMC has no association with these products and will seek a review from securities legal advisors.

HIP-3: An Expensive Ticket, A Moat That Can't Be Bought

The judgment on Entropy is based solely on 26 days of data. Nebius's lead and subsequent reversal are readings from a single week and a single medium-sized target, neither of which should be treated as established conclusions. Team background and funding rounds come from company announcements and media reports, not verifiable on-chain data. The volatility conclusion in Section 2 is based on correlations from a sample of 45 working days, not causal decomposition. Trading volume and actual volatility may also be driven by the same factors, with the most direct candidate being the overall cooling of AI capital expenditure transactions. The number of trades does not equate to the number of traders, and public APIs do not produce independent traders. Capital return-related figures are calculated based on HYPE $79.73 and 2.2% annualized staking, the latter being a protocol parameter rather than a contractual commitment, and will decrease as the total network staking amount increases.

Robinhood CEO: Why Stock Tokenization Doesn't Require Issuer Approval

Under the technological conditions at the time, this was the optimal solution. However, we cannot assume this is the endpoint of market mechanism evolution. The lesson from this history is that market infrastructure will continue to evolve with technology. The system built to adapt to the limitations of paper certificates should not directly determine the operational rules of asset ownership in the on-chain world. Blockchain can provide financial assets with greater portability, transparency, and programmability, and investors should have more choices regarding how they hold and use assets. Companies should control the rights associated with their shares, but cannot manage the legitimate uses of shares once they have been assigned to investors. On-chain assets do not mean that issuers gain veto power that they did not possess off-chain. Issuers also cannot simply block new investor groups from entering just because they do not yet understand this new technology.

The Real Cards of Pump.fun: $2 Billion Treasury, 25-Year-Old Team, and an Ambition That Disbelieves in Decentralization

The second reason is certainly security risks. Everyone knows that this platform is currently making a lot of money, and PUMP itself is also a very active trading token. If our identities were completely public, it would naturally be easier to become a target for others. We actually already have security measures in place, etc. So ultimately, this is more of a choice to ensure our own peace of mind. I think we might have to wait until we scale up a bit more and our entire business develops to a more mature stage before making the decision to go public with our identities.

Arc Mainnet Launching Soon: What You Need to Know

Action checklist: What to do 24 hours before the mainnet launch Prepare USDC. All operations on Arc require USDC as gas. Ensure you hold enough USDC on Ethereum or other chains that support CCTP. Set up your wallet. MetaMask has confirmed support for the Arc network. After the mainnet launch, add Arc's Chain ID and RPC endpoint; Ledger hardware wallets have also confirmed support. Pay attention to cross-chain bridges. Circle's CCTP is the official cross-chain channel for transferring USDC from other chains to Arc. On the day of the mainnet launch, this will be the main entry point for funds entering Arc.
