According to crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett, U.S. Senate Republicans have released a new version of the CLARITY Act text, referring to it as 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 content of the Tillis-Gallego ethical standards proposal, including the sale of "significant" crypto-related financial interests or placing them in a blind trust; the stablecoin earnings section introduces 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 scope of BRCA's protections has been narrowed, and the new text further strengthens restrictions on vertical integration, including related party transactions and conflicts of interest involving digital commodity exchanges, brokers, and dealers.

Geoff Kendrick, the Global Head of Digital Asset Research at Standard Chartered, stated in a research report that SKY could reach $0.325 by the end of 2028, which is five times the benchmark price of $0.065 set in the report. The bank expects that the price increase of SKY will roughly synchronize with ETH and outperform Bitcoin before the end of 2028.Sky is a decentralized finance platform that will adopt its current name in 2024 and launch USDS and the governance token SKY. Since September 2024, Sky's agency has borrowed $5.9 billion USDS; the supply of USDS reached $10.04 billion in June, a year-on-year increase of 96.9%, down from $11.14 billion in May. Standard Chartered stated that further growth in USDS supply will drive protocol revenue and increase distributions to token holders, while staking rewards and a token buyback mechanism will be used to distribute value to SKY holders. The bank expects that the value distributed to holders will at least double in the next 12 months and noted that the slower-than-expected growth of yield-bearing stablecoins is a major risk to SKY's outlook.

The on-chain central bank project The Standard Reserve announced on X that the project will launch on September 14. The project was initiated by developer 0xBeans and released its white paper on August 23, positioning itself as a revised version of Olympus DAO (OHM), with plans to launch on the Robinhood Chain. Currently, the project is in the audit and whitelist allocation phase, and there are no tokens or NFTs available for trading.In terms of the issuance mechanism, the system only references the official Uniswap v4 pool's ETH/$STANDARD net ETH flow. When the net flow is positive, issuance will expand, and protocol fees will be used to accumulate reserve assets; when the net flow is negative, issuance will be reduced, shifting towards the buyback and destruction of STANDARD. The total supply of STANDARD is capped at 1 billion, with 100 million injected into the protocol as permanently held Uniswap v4 liquidity provider across all ranges at genesis, and the remaining 900 million allocated for long-term issuance budget.

According to official news from Bitget, Bitget has completed a comprehensive upgrade of its U.S. stock product market data source, officially connecting to the Nasdaq official data source, becoming the first cryptocurrency trading platform in the industry to adopt this data standard. Compared to the previous data model, Nasdaq official data can provide users with more accurate and timely market data, and maintain better price stability and continuity during periods of significant market fluctuations.To further ensure data quality, after connecting to the official data, Bitget has established a multi-layered assurance mechanism based on the official metadata, including data processing, real-time monitoring, quality comparison, simulation validation, and anomaly data filtering. Nasdaq, as a core data service provider long adopted by global financial markets, has had its data standards validated over many years in the traditional financial sector.This upgrade also marks a further deepening of Bitget's global asset trading infrastructure development. As the trading categories gradually expand from digital assets to global assets such as U.S. stocks, the platform will continue to enhance its underlying data, liquidity, and risk management capabilities, and introduce more mature institutional-level market standards to provide individual investors and institutional clients with a more stable and efficient cross-market trading experience, continuously enhancing the comprehensive competitiveness of its Universal Exchange (UEX).

According to Bitcoin News monitoring, DART stated that it, along with independent white hat researchers, has recovered over 50 BTC from wallets affected by the COLDCARD entropy vulnerability, completing the transfer before malicious attackers could steal them. DART is a digital asset recovery organization that collaborates with white hat researchers to protect vulnerable funds and coordinates their legal return to the owners.The white hat researchers did not request a bounty and will return the Bitcoin to the owners. The recovered BTC has been transferred to the Crypto Recovery Trust. This trust is a dedicated statutory trust established under Wyoming state law to hold recovered digital assets and return them after confirming and verifying the legitimate owners.The trust will document the recovery process, separating the BTC from DART and the researchers' funds, conducting blockchain analysis, ownership verification, and sanctions screening, and providing a legal return process for verified owners. If there is a dispute over ownership, or if the related funds are involved in sanctions or criminal proceedings, the BTC will be handled according to applicable legal procedures. DART stated that other vulnerable assets and recovery leads are still under review.

According to the Slow Fog Security Team, they have detected an attack activity disguised as a free VPS service, specifically targeting iPhone Safari browsers running iOS versions 18.4 to 18.6.2.The attackers exploited six vulnerabilities codenamed DarkSword to form a complete attack chain, covering aspects such as WebKit remote code execution, sandbox escape, and kernel read/write, allowing them to obtain App container files and keychain data without user awareness, and to record keyboard inputs when wallets like imToken, TokenPocket, or TronLink are in the foreground.The Slow Fog team stated that the aforementioned six vulnerabilities have now been patched by Apple, and the current attack belongs to the reuse of n-day vulnerability chains. Simply visiting a malicious page does not directly prove that mnemonic phrases or private keys have been stolen; confirmation still requires device forensics. iOS/iPadOS users are advised to upgrade their systems to version 18.7.3 or 26.3 and above as soon as possible.

According to Mobile Payment Network, Lu Lei, a member of the Party Committee and Vice President of the People's Bank of China, stated at the 15th China Payment Clearing Forum that intelligent agent payments must not blur the boundaries of responsibility between consumers, operating institutions, and algorithm systems. Lu Lei believes that the essence of payment is the transfer of fund ownership, which objectively requires that the results of transactions are predictable, responsibilities are definable, and traces are traceable. Large models and autonomous intelligent agents have characteristics such as output randomness and insufficient transparency of logic. If transaction decision-making authority is blindly or excessively granted to intelligent agents, it will affect the trust foundation of fund transactions. The current governance rules of the payment industry and dispute resolution mechanisms are built around "humans as the final decision-makers in transactions." The new model of intelligent agents automatically initiating and assisting in transactions easily blurs the boundaries of responsibility, and the existing governance rules need to be optimized and improved.Regarding the issue of insufficient compatibility of protocol standards in the field of intelligent agent payments, Lu Lei emphasized that the dispute over protocols is essentially a dispute over business rules and technical standards, as well as a struggle for dominance in the era of artificial intelligence. The People's Bank of China continues to strengthen its tracking research on technological innovation, especially intelligent agent payments, guiding the Payment Clearing Association to leverage its advantages in industry self-regulation. Based on extensive soliciting of opinions, they will formulate and publish the "Self-Regulatory Convention for Intelligent Agent Payment Applications," and will continue to work on coordinating protocols and standards, as well as innovating risk governance. Lu Lei proposed three hopes to market institutions: actively respond to and implement the industry self-regulatory convention, with payment security and risk prevention as the bottom line, and consumer rights protection as the focal point; continuously track the trends of cutting-edge technologies such as large models and intelligent agents both domestically and internationally, and build technical reserves and application capabilities; adhere to the principle of rules and standards first, strengthen coordination and compatibility among different protocols and standards, and cooperate with regulatory authorities to promote the construction of a foundational protocol and technical standard system for intelligent agent payments.
