Analysis: On the eve of the US election, funds are betting on a type of asset that is not gold, not bonds, and not the US dollar

according to an analysis by the Hong Kong Economic Daily, Bitcoin recently broke through and is expected to reach a historic high in speculation about the potential results of the US election. The correlation between the price of Bitcoin and the inflow of funds is expected to further increase, and liquidity will become an increasingly important price driver. Last week, global funds poured into the US market's Bitcoin spot trading fund, betting on Trump's victory in the US election, and his support for Bitcoin was seen as a "Trump trade". The market expects the size of the US Bitcoin ETF to double by 2025 and quadruple by 2027. As for Hong Kong investment options involving Bitcoin, we will have to wait and see.

  • Zhipu Launches and Open Sources GLM-5.3-Flash

    On August 26, Zhipu launched and open-sourced GLM-5.3-Flash (320B-A18B), the first native multimodal model in the GLM-5 series. It features a total of 320 billion parameters and surpasses GLM-5.2, achieving a score of 57 on the globally recognized Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index (AA Comprehensive Intelligence Index), placing it among the leading models worldwide, on par with Anthropic's popular model Claude Opus 4.8. In the self-developed Z.ai Code Bench evaluation, its programming performance is comparable to that of Claude Opus 4.8. Additionally, GLM-5.3-Flash is priced at 1/10 of GLM-5.3, and during a limited-time discount, it is priced at 1/20 of GLM-5.3, which is 1/40 of Opus 4.8. The same intelligence at 1/40 the price, cutting-edge capabilities without the need to hold back.

  • Ethereum Developers Propose Restructuring Validator Staking Contract to Prepare for Quantum Attacks

    On August 26, Ethereum researchers proposed a draft to rebuild the validator deposit contract in preparation for the future introduction of quantum-resistant signature mechanisms, allowing for a gradual phase-out of the existing BLS signature format. This proposal enables the deposit contract to support keys of different sizes and public key types, assigning labels for each cryptographic scheme, with the current BLS signature labeled as 0 and potential future quantum-resistant schemes receiving new labels. Currently, approximately 42.4 million ETH, worth around $10.4 billion, are staked in Ethereum, all relying on BLS validator keys. This draft is still in its early stages and must be implemented alongside subsequent consensus layer upgrades, with the Ethereum Foundation's overall quantum resistance roadmap targeting around 2029.
