As BIT’s (formerly Matrixport) U.S. equities business continues to scale, BIT has added Clear Street—a U.S.-based institutional clearing services provider—as a new partner, marking a significant step forward in BIT’s development of high-standard U.S. equities infrastructure. BIT’s U.S. equities business operates under an omnibus introducing broker (IB) architecture, with all orders cleared and custodied by licensed U.S. clearing institutions. To date, BIT has established partnerships with three U.S.-licensed clearing institutions: Clear Street, RQD Clearing, and Atomic Vaults Securities (AVS).

According to The Block, the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) announced that its “Project Agorá” tokenized prototype has successfully validated the feasibility of atomic settlement for cross-border wholesale transactions. The prototype adopts a layered architecture that leverages tokenized central bank reserves and commercial bank deposits to execute multi-currency, multi-jurisdiction “all-or-nothing” transaction chains, while allowing individual central banks to retain operational autonomy. Legal analysis indicates that settlement finality can be achieved across all seven participating jurisdictions, and privacy protection can also be ensured within a compliant regulatory framework. Launched jointly by the BIS and the Institute of International Finance (IIF), the project currently involves seven central banks—including the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, the Bank of England, Banque de France, the Bank of Japan, the Bank of Korea, Banco de México, and the Swiss National Bank—as well as over 40 private-sector financial institutions. In the next phase, the Bank of Canada will officially join as the eighth central bank participant; the project will advance to real-value testing and further expand private-sector involvement.

Odaily Two Iranian sources stated that US and Iranian negotiators have scaled back their ambitions for a comprehensive peace deal and are now seeking an interim memorandum to avoid a relapse into conflict. Following the inconclusive talks in Islamabad last weekend, deep-seated differences over the nuclear program (such as the disposition of the enriched uranium stockpile and the timeline for halting nuclear activities) continue to impede progress. A senior Iranian official indicated that the two sides have narrowed their differences on issues like the management of the Strait of Hormuz. Iran hopes the memorandum will include the unfreezing of some Iranian funds by the US in exchange for allowing more vessels to pass through the strait. A source briefed by Tehran said that according to Iran's proposal, if a lasting agreement can be reached, vessels could pass freely through the Omani side of the strait without being attacked. However, more profound disagreements remain, including the fate of the high-enriched uranium stockpile and the timeline for halting nuclear work. Iranian sources said that if a memorandum to halt conflict is reached, the two sides are expected to have 60 days to negotiate a final agreement, which would require the involvement of experts and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
