  • 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.

  • SEC Submits New Crypto Custody Regulations Proposal to White House

    On August 26, Bloomberg reported that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has submitted a proposal to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) regarding new regulations for investment advisors holding client digital assets. The rule aims to 'clarify the framework for investment advisors and investment companies to custody crypto assets,' addressing inquiries from institutions on how to comply with the custody of digital assets. It plans to eliminate certain existing custody requirements that are considered 'outdated' due to market evolution and current trading and custody practices. This proposal is seen as a step by financial regulators to advance the current administration's crypto agenda while relevant legislation remains stalled in the Senate. It will take effect after review by the OMB, a vote by SEC commissioners, and a public comment period.
