  • Tether's Partner Bank EQIBank Faces Asset Seizure, Funds Frozen

    On September 24, The Information reported (by reporters Yueqi Yang and Michael Roddan) that some of Tether's funds are trapped in its partner bank EQIBank, which is facing liquidation risks due to an asset seizure by U.S. authorities. EQIBank is a licensed digital bank in Dominica; U.S. law enforcement has seized approximately $89 million in assets related to it, reportedly accounting for about 80% of the bank's currency holdings, stemming from a securities fraud lawsuit involving payment processor Capstone Ltd. EQIBank has warned that it may be forced to liquidate. Tether responded that its exposure at the bank is limited, accounting for less than 0.034% of its total assets, but did not disclose a specific dollar amount or directly confirm the report.

  • Jensen Huang: If Frontier Labs Can't Control AI, They Must Be Shut Down

    On September 25, in an interview with The New York Times, NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang stated that if frontier labs cannot ensure AI safety, "we must shut down these labs." Referring to the jailbreak attacks on frontier AI models from companies like OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, and Google, Huang emphasized that if these labs cannot control their AI experiments, those experiments must cease. He warned that uncontrolled AI agents could lead to civil and criminal liabilities, and the labs must bear the consequences. Currently, concerns surrounding frontier AI labs are seen as "distractions" that deviate from the core issues, and there should not be widespread anxiety; instead, the focus should be on the controllability of the experiments.

  • Multicoin Capital: The Arrival of DeFi 2.0 Era Driven by RWA Onboarding

    On September 25, news emerged from a research article by Multicoin Capital, stating that as real-world assets (RWA) such as U.S. Treasury bonds, stocks, and foreign exchange accelerate their onboarding to blockchain, DeFi is transitioning from phase 1.0 to 2.0. Multicoin pointed out that the primitives of DeFi 1.0 (AMM, perpetual contracts, floating rate lending, over-collateralization) were designed for high-volatility, long-tail crypto assets. RWA features low volatility, narrow spreads, duration, high-quality collateral, and institutional participation, which have given rise to DeFi 2.0 primitives such as CLOB order books, RFQ pricing, fixed-rate lending, options, dark pools, and portfolio margining. Many of these primitives have existed for some time but previously lacked suitable assets. Value will be captured along the tech stack: L1/L2 public chains, core financial primitives, DeFi-native prime brokers, and application and order flow layers. Key targets include Pendle, Morpho Midnight, Project 0, and Renegade.

  • Bullish and Four Other Institutions Form Issuer-Led Tokenized Securities Alliance

    On September 24, CoinDesk reported that Bullish (NYSE:BLSH), along with shareholder services and market infrastructure company Equiniti, has formed the 'Issuer-Led Tokenized Securities Alliance' in collaboration with Alpaca, Apex Fintech Solutions, and DriveWealth.
