Nate Geraci, President of ETF Store, stated that if the Clarity Act can gain enough votes to advance this week, it will be beneficial for the industry. However, he believes that the act is not a key factor in determining the future of cryptocurrency. Under the Trump administration, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission 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 speed of development in the cryptocurrency industry far exceeds the policy-making cycle. By the time the U.S. political sphere realizes that the financial system has already 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 cryptocurrency industry by enhancing market confidence that innovative achievements are not easily reversible, but the future of the cryptocurrency industry does not depend on whether this act can be passed.

White House economic advisor Hassett stated, "Both Trump and I believe there is no reason to raise interest rates, and it is important for the Federal Reserve to maintain the status quo before the election. Trump fully respects Waller's independence."

The main securities exchange in South Korea will trial evening trading next Monday, extending the trading hours for almost all local stocks until 8 PM, up from the regular closing time of 3:30 PM.This adjustment is the first of its kind among major exchanges in Asia and is a step towards the Korea Exchange's goal of achieving 24-hour trading by December 2027. The new trading period will test whether the market can maintain sufficient liquidity after the extended trading hours and whether there is actual demand from investors for additional trading periods.Lee Young-jae, a senior investment manager at London-based Baillie Gifford, stated that a longer trading window can enhance investor flexibility and may attract more trading-oriented investors with higher turnover rates, as well as hedge fund participation. Edward Kim, head of Korean equity sales at Bank of America, noted that this is another step in the continuous development of South Korea's capital markets and enhancing accessibility for global investors.

Jiang Zhuoer, the founder of Liebit Mining Pool (B.TOP), stated that the most likely scenario for Bitcoin is to first sweep up to the liquidation zone at the 76k high, with ETH simultaneously testing around the 2665 liquidation. After clearing 76k, there are two possible subsequent scenarios: a) a rebound before hitting 75k, which would make it more likely to rise back to 80k, or even touch the high resistance area of 83~84k, before starting a major correction; b) if it effectively breaks below 75k, it will trigger a correction corresponding to the previous rise from 64k, expected to reach 70~72k, before entering the next phase of the bull market.Jiang Zhuoer believes that the upcoming voting on the bill and news from the Federal Reserve may become key catalysts, thus maintaining a neutral position with full BTC short positions and full ETH spot holdings.

According to NBC, North Korea is utilizing remote IT workers from third countries such as Iran and Lebanon to assist in infiltrating American companies and obtaining funds to finance its weapons programs. Alerts issued by the U.S. and several foreign agencies in July indicated that North Korean IT workers "seek to sign contracts with the intention of remitting salaries back to relevant North Korean agencies," while also posing internal threats to companies, involving data leaks, cryptocurrency theft, and sensitive information theft.As governments like the United States increase countermeasures, North Korea is increasingly leveraging third-country IT workers to secure job interviews, and after obtaining work contracts, the relevant positions are typically taken over by North Korean agents. Reports indicate that these foreign IT workers are scouted on LinkedIn, with some earning about $500 per month in cryptocurrency to work part-time as "interview assistants."Cointelegraph reported in May, citing data from cybersecurity company CrowdStrike, that state-affiliated North Korean hackers and threat actors caused cryptocurrency losses exceeding $2 billion in 2025, a 51% increase year-on-year. The Bank of Korea estimates that despite facing global sanctions, North Korea's GDP will still grow by 3.5% in 2025.

According to GMGN market data, after an afternoon of consolidation and fluctuations, the Robinhood ecosystem Meme coin CATGPT surged again, briefly breaking through 20 million USD before retreating, with a current market value of 15.62 million USD and a nearly 1-hour increase of 41%. CATGPT is paired for trading with OPENAIx1L (OPENAI 1x Long tokenized position) through the Long.xyz platform.Long.xyz is a meme coin issuance platform on the Robinhood chain, focusing on the innovative model of "coin-stock Meme," directly binding traditional Meme coins with tokenized US stocks, forming a dual-driven mechanism of "sentiment speculation + real asset anchoring." The platform allows users to issue Meme tokens and directly form trading pairs with on-chain US stock tokens (such as NVDA, TSLA, AAPL, etc.) instead of traditional USDT or ETH pairs, while a portion of the trading fees is returned to the community treasury to accumulate corresponding US stock tokens, creating a unique value capture model.Currently, OPENAI has high IPO expectations, but it is difficult to go long in the traditional market before it goes public. This type of tokenized long + Meme pairing provides speculative exposure on-chain. It is an upgraded version of the previous Meme pairing with stock tokens like NVDA. According to market news, the prices of related tokens are highly volatile and carry significant uncertainty, so users should invest cautiously.

According to the Financial Times, the UK cryptocurrency industry is entering the regulatory implementation phase. Zumo founder and CEO Nick Jones stated that the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) will open the application window for cryptocurrency asset authorization on September 30, with the new regulatory system expected to be officially implemented in October 2027.He pointed out that for a long time, regulatory uncertainty and counterparty risk have made financial institutions cautious about the UK cryptocurrency market, not due to a lack of interest in digital assets. As the regulatory path becomes clearer, traditional financial institutions such as the UK's largest retail investment platform Hargreaves Lansdown are beginning to enter the cryptocurrency market. The industry will gradually bid farewell to offshore operations, startup-style business processes, and unregulated models, and the importance of compliant infrastructure and local service providers will further increase.

The financial blog Zero Hedge pointed out that today's U.S. CPI report shows that core CPI is running hot, while "super core inflation" is exceptionally heated, mainly due to historic price increases in education and communication services, with mobile communication service prices skyrocketing to record levels.

Nick Timiraos, the "Fed Whisperer," stated that in the August CPI, core services inflation excluding housing rose by 0.51% month-over-month, the highest level since January, and increased by 3% year-over-year. Core goods inflation rose by 0.11% month-over-month and increased by 0.7% year-over-year. Housing inflation rose by 0.26% month-over-month and increased by 3% year-over-year.

In August, the seasonally adjusted core CPI in the United States recorded a month-on-month increase of 0.3%, the highest since May of this year, exceeding market expectations of 0.2%, with the previous value being 0.2%. The year-on-year unadjusted core CPI in the United States for August fell to 2.4%, declining for three consecutive months, reaching the lowest level since April 2021, in line with expectations, with the previous value being 2.5%.

According to CoinDesk, Bitcoin formed a golden cross earlier this week (the 50-day moving average crossing above the 200-day moving average), but subsequently did not experience a sustained increase, instead retreating from around $80,000 to about $77,000. It is noteworthy that most of the recent rise occurred before the golden cross—Bitcoin had previously risen from $62,000 to $82,000.The article points out that similar situations have historically repeated multiple times: after the golden cross in 2021, BTC fell from $52,000 to $40,000; after the golden cross in February 2023, it retreated from $23,000 to $20,000; after the golden cross in October 2024, it slid from $70,000 to $67,000; and after the golden cross in May 2025, it corrected from $110,000 to $100,000. Analysts believe that while the golden cross is seen as a long-term bullish signal, it may essentially be a lagging indicator, as a significant portion of the gains often have already been realized by the time the signal appears.
