Jiang Zhuoer, the founder of the Liebit Mining Pool (B.TOP), stated that BTC has fallen as expected, with $76,500 being a key support level (the lower bound of the ascending channel, as well as the Fibonacci 23.6% retracement from the rise of about $57,000 to $82,000). If it falls below $76,500, the decline may accelerate, and the next focus will be whether the previous low of $75,500 can hold.He previously mentioned two possible scenarios: a) a rebound before reaching $75,000, which would make it more likely to rise back to $80,000, or even up to the high resistance area of $83,000 to $84,000, before starting a major correction; b) if it effectively breaks below $75,000, it will trigger a correction corresponding to the original rise from $64,000, expected to reach $70,000 to $72,000, before entering the next phase of a bull market. Jiang Zhuoer believes that the voting on the "Cryptocurrency Market Structure Act" (i.e., the CLARITY Act) next week and news from the Federal Reserve may become key catalysts, thus maintaining a neutral position of full BTC short positions + full ETH spot positions.

Pump.fun announced the launch of the "Holder Reward" mechanism and the cancellation of the Cashback model. From now on, when token creators issue new coins, they can choose between the standard "Creator Fee" model and the "Holder Reward" model.In the Holder Reward model, the relevant fees will be transferred to the Pump.fun distribution wallet, and the platform will automatically conduct multiple proportional distributions every hour. Users with a holding value exceeding 20 USD will receive rewards, with more holdings resulting in more rewards. Rewards are paid in the quoted token of the trading pair; for example, tokens paired with SOL will distribute rewards in SOL.Existing Cashback and Creator Fee model tokens can apply to be converted into Holder Reward tokens, and the conversion cannot be reversed. The SOL and USDC trading pairs will continue to use a tiered fee rate that decreases as market value increases; custom trading pairs can set a fixed rate between 0.01% and 3%, which cannot be modified once determined.

According to a report by Decrypt, a new report released by the Bank for International Settlements shows that advanced AI technology has shortened the time window for banks to fix vulnerabilities before attackers exploit software flaws. It warns that periodic security assessments and scheduled patch updates have increasingly become insufficient to meet the challenges, with the time window from vulnerability discovery to exploitation reduced from weeks to minutes.The report focuses on the banks' response capabilities, arguing that financial institutions must accelerate the speed of software fixes and expedite the related authorization decision-making processes.

Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich published a letter to shareholders stating that the company's board of directors has decided to further adjust the arrangements related to the Series 10 stock purchase warrants and cancel 41% of the related shares, resetting the conversion ratio to the level prior to the international issuance in September 2025.According to the new arrangement, the conversion ratio of the warrants to shares will be reset from the previously fixed 1:696 to 1:410. Metaplanet stated that this move will eliminate over $220 million in warrant value, reduce the number of related potential shares by 41%, and correspondingly lower the fully diluted equity, while increasing the fully diluted Bitcoin holdings per share by approximately 8.8%.In addition, all unvested warrants will be subject to longer-term exercise restrictions, with one-third becoming exercisable in 2029, 2030, and 2031, respectively. The previously agreed five-year lock-up period remains unchanged. The company will also cancel the originally planned allocation of 20% of the warrants to the employee incentive pool and will work with global compensation consultants to design a new compensation incentive plan.

According to CoinDesk, European financial and cryptocurrency industry organizations have written to the EU Council and the European Parliament, urging lawmakers to remove the cap on the scale of tokenized securities platforms or set it at least at €1.5 trillion (approximately $1.74 trillion), arguing that the €100 billion cap proposed by the European Commission will hinder industry development. Signatories include the French Digital Asset Association Adan, Crypto Council for Innovation, the European Ethereum Institute, as well as companies like Nasdaq and Boerse Stuttgart.The EU's distributed ledger pilot regime allows operators to test the trading and settlement of tokenized stocks, bonds, and investment funds while exempting some existing financial rules. After observing "moderate" participation, the European Commission proposed to expand the pilot framework and raise the current €6 billion cap to €100 billion. Adan stated that considering the development of the global market, this increase is still insufficient, and their preferred option is to completely remove the cap or at least set it to €1.5 trillion, which is 15 times the proposed cap.The joint letter pointed out that some existing European projects have reached a scale of €350 billion and plan to grow further, but did not disclose specific projects or calculation methods. The letter also emphasized that the relevant threshold targets the market capitalization of admitted securities rather than trading volume and opposed giving central securities depositories a significantly higher differentiated cap than other blockchain market operators, arguing that this would be detrimental to emerging service providers.The alliance also compared the restrictive measures in Europe with an unnamed mainstream settlement platform in the United States, which can tokenize assets like stocks without a trading volume cap; if the cap is retained, the alliance hopes the Commission can flexibly raise it as the market grows, without presetting a maximum limit.

The company TransparentBusiness, which operates Unicoin, has filed a lawsuit in the Southern District of New York Federal Court against Universal Navigation, which operates Uniswap Labs, requesting the court to rule that its UNICOIN trademark does not infringe or dilute the trademarks UNI, UNISWAP, and UNICHAIN claimed by Uniswap, and to request the court to cancel the U.S. trademark registration for UNI.The complaint shows that Uniswap's legal counsel sent three letters to Unicoin on June 3, July 17, and August 14, accusing it of trademark infringement, dilution, domain name squatting, and unfair competition, and demanding that Unicoin cease using the UNICOIN and other identifiers containing UNI, transfer the domain names unicoin.com and unicoin.org, provide income and profit accounts, and pay Uniswap's legal fees. Unicoin also requests the court to confirm that the aforementioned domain names do not violate the U.S. Federal Anti-Cybersquatting Consumer Protection Act.The lawsuit comes weeks before the public issuance of the UNCN token listed on the Unicoin official website on September 28. As of the time of publication, DeFiLlama data shows that the Uniswap protocol ranks first among decentralized exchanges with over $3.9 billion in 24-hour trading volume.

The Central Science Management Bureau confirmed on the 9th that TSMC's Central Science Phase II 1.4 nanometer factory expansion is fully accelerating. The first P1 factory has completed its steel structure and is expected to begin trial production in April next year, with mass production anticipated in the second half of next year, ahead of the originally scheduled mass production in 2028. TSMC has applied to the Central Science Management Bureau to set up two temporary offices at the site, which are expected to be completed in April next year, with the first batch of over 5,400 operational and outsourced personnel moving in.The advanced process new factory for TSMC's Central Science Phase II park broke ground last October, planning to build four 1.4 nanometer factories, with nearly 2,000 workers working day and night. The P1 factory is currently undergoing floor and exterior wall construction, with the factory building expected to be completed early next year. The P2 factory has begun basic construction and is scheduled to be completed in October next year, with both factories expected to start mass production successively next year. The P3 factory has obtained a construction permit, while the P4 factory is in the process of applying for a construction permit, planning to be built with a six-month gap. P3 is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2028, and P4 is scheduled for completion in the fourth quarter of the same year. After the P2 factory is completed in the second half of next year, an additional 1,000 operational personnel will be added, with the total number of employees expected to be between 9,000 and 10,000 when all four new factories in Phase II are completed and put into production.

According to CoinDesk, the U.S. Department of Commerce has allocated up to $100 million each to three quantum computing companies: Rigetti, D-Wave, and Quantinuum, totaling up to $300 million, to expand hardware, manufacturing, and error correction systems, while simultaneously acquiring minority stakes in the three companies.Meanwhile, Bitcoin and Ethereum developers are accelerating the advancement of post-quantum cryptography upgrade plans. The Ethereum Foundation has set December 2029 as the deadline for the base layer quantum resistance upgrade, covering the execution layer, consensus layer, and data layer; although there is no unified timeline for Bitcoin, proposals BIP-360 (post-quantum output types) and BIP-361 (phasing out ECDSA and Schnorr signatures) have been accelerated, with researchers also viewing 2029 as a critical window for completing a trustworthy migration path.

Coinbase announced that it has collaborated with Stanford University cryptography professor Dan Boneh and Localhost Research to hold a closed-door "Post-Quantum Bitcoin Workshop" at Stanford University, gathering Bitcoin developers, cryptography experts, researchers, institutional custodians, and hardware wallet specialists to discuss the technologies and migration plans for Bitcoin to address future quantum computing threats.The workshop focused on assessing the progress of quantum computing, post-quantum cryptography, and various post-quantum signature schemes applicable to Bitcoin, as well as discussing Ethereum's anti-quantum planning, the practical requirements faced by institutional custody businesses, and how to introduce post-quantum security mechanisms for Bitcoin through new output types. Participants believed that rather than predicting when quantum computing will pose a real threat to existing cryptographic systems, it is more important to establish well-tested response plans in advance.Quantum computing does not currently pose an urgent crisis, but the earlier research and coordination begin, the better we can avoid hasty network upgrades and asset migrations under pressure in the future. However, there is currently no consensus on a single post-quantum solution. Different solutions involve trade-offs in terms of security, transaction data size, hardware performance, key management, and the difficulty of user migration. Participants felt that Bitcoin's anti-quantum measures cannot rely solely on protocol layer upgrades, but must also consider how individual users, institutional custodians, wallets, and hardware devices generate, store, back up, and migrate keys and assets.

According to the Chosun Ilbo report on September 7, SK Hynix is accelerating the increase of the production share of 10-nanometer sixth-generation (1c) DRAM. Industry data shows that its 1c DRAM share rose from about 10% in the first quarter of this year to about 13% in the second quarter, and is expected to reach about 24% in the third quarter and about 34% in the fourth quarter; it may rise to about 35% in the first quarter of next year, surpassing 1b (about 33%) for the first time and becoming the main process. The share of 1b (10-nanometer fifth-generation) DRAM peaked at about 43% in the second quarter of this year and has since begun to decline.By the end of the second quarter, Samsung Electronics had a 1c share of about 16% and Micron about 19%, both higher than SK Hynix's approximately 13%. Reports indicate that SK Hynix is accelerating the transition in the second half of the year, and in the fourth quarter, it may exceed Samsung Electronics' approximately 31% with about 34%. SK Hynix stated in its second-quarter earnings call that the supply of DRAM using the 1c process will substantially begin from the second quarter, and in the second half of the year, with the ramp-up of HBM4 and increased shipments of 1c general DRAM, the bit growth rate will be higher than in the first half.Samsung Electronics will use 1c DRAM starting with HBM4, with a running speed of about 11.7Gbps; SK Hynix previously prioritized ensuring mass production stability with verified 1b DRAM and advanced MR-MUF packaging, and will use 1c DRAM for the first time as the core chip for HBM starting with the next generation HBM4E. Counterpoint Research and others estimate that this year, the market share of HBM4 under the combined metrics of Nvidia, Google, and AMD is approximately 50% for SK Hynix in the mid-range, 20% for Samsung Electronics in the later range, and 10% for Micron in the later range.
