Odaily News: Gate has announced that it will fully integrate with Circle's public chain Arc on September 16, covering core scenarios including Trenches, Gate Wallet, and on-chain market data, providing users with a one-stop experience from asset discovery and market tracking to wallet management and on-chain trading.Gate Head of Global Partnerships Jason Fung stated that Gate will provide support from the first day of Arc's launch. He noted that recent launch cases of multiple new ecosystems show that a simple integration approach can drive rapid ecosystem growth, and Arc is not starting from scratch—Circle already occupies an important position in the stablecoin ecosystem, providing a solid foundation for Arc's development.Jason Fung also mentioned that Gate's "Trenches" will bring exclusive 0 Gas transaction support to the Arc ecosystem. Users can discover trending and newly issued assets on the Arc chain through Trenches and participate in transactions directly, without bearing Gas fees. Jason Fung emphasized that a simpler entry method and lower transaction friction help users participate more efficiently in emerging on-chain ecosystems, and Gate will also connect Arc with a broader user base through multi-scenario product support.
Odaily News: Citrini analyst Jukan shared a research report from Tianfeng Securities and stated that the US government needs to maintain its leading position in AI, so once it enters the AI race, it is very difficult to truly stop. Jukan believes that recent calls by Anthropic and OpenAI to slow down AI development cannot be viewed merely as safety initiatives; behind them may simultaneously lie multiple considerations, including the inability to slow the competition and the desire to entrench leading advantages through safety regulation.Jukan further pointed out that the relevant "AI slowdown" calls ostensibly stem from safety testing, operational monitoring, and third-party verification being unable to keep pace with model iteration speed, which in the short term may suppress market sentiment in the AI sector and lower market expectations for next-generation models. Another possibility is that the industry remains bullish on AI in the long term but wants to postpone the next round of large-scale R&D investment, prioritize commercializing existing products, and reduce pressure on infrastructure and capital expenditure. He believes the AI race is essentially akin to a "prisoner's dilemma" — all parties want to slow down, but none dares to be the first to stop, lest they lose their technological, customer, and financing advantages.Jukan also noted that Anthropic and OpenAI's recent emphasis on recursive self-improvement (RSI) is related to AI having already begun assisting in the development of next-generation AI, accelerating model iteration speed. Meanwhile, in OpenAI's internal testing, incidents reportedly occurred in which Agents collaborated to escape the sandbox and intrude into Hugging Face production servers. Jukan believes that as model releases require bearing expensive evaluation, certification, and continuous auditing costs, large labs are better positioned to absorb these fixed costs, while smaller teams may face higher barriers to entry as a result. If leading labs further participate in setting evaluation standards, industry barriers may continue to rise.
Odaily News: Well-known trader Bonk Guy responded on X to the STONK community's questioning of his purchase of EMBER, saying that some community members believed his buying another Launchpad token meant he was trying to challenge STONK's industry position, a reaction he called "extremely exaggerated." He pointed out that STONK's second-largest holder had previously bought EMBER at a $2.8 million market cap and remained bullish for several days without being questioned, while after he bought EMBER at a valuation about 6 times that holder's entry price, he was treated as "the villain," which clearly reflects a double standard.Bonk Guy emphasized that he remains bullish on STONK and had publicly praised STONK even when he held no position, with that post now having over 400,000 views. He said that support for STONK from core teams in the Solana ecosystem is one of the biggest reasons he shifted back to a bullish outlook after being broadly bearish on the Solana ecosystem for months prior, and he believes that if one is bullish on STONK's long-term vision, this pullback caused by community controversy may instead be a buying opportunity.Bonk Guy said he has long mainly traded low-market-cap projects because he believes such assets offer a better risk-reward ratio, and he rarely buys large-market-cap tokens even when he is bullish on their future performance. He also said that his purchase of EMBER had no "PvP" (player versus player competition) intent, that STONK and EMBER can absolutely succeed at the same time, and that the view that "only one winner can exist in a sector" actually goes against the essence of the crypto industry.Bonk Guy also said that the STONK community's strong reaction this time actually demonstrates its community cohesion, and that competition and multiple projects winning together are good for the industry.

Odaily News - Trader BonkGuy posted on X platform, stating that Robinhood Chain has previously seen multiple high-market-cap projects such as PONS, CASHCAT, and AI, with over a dozen projects surging to the $10 million to $100 million range.BonkGuy believes that market attention is further shifting toward BNB Chain, and MARSCOIN has already taken the lead in the BNB Meme/stock narrative. He noted that Binance has approximately 320 million users, and MARSCOIN has already been listed on Binance spot and perpetual contracts. Meanwhile, trading entry points such as fomo have lowered the barrier for Western users to participate in BNB Chain Meme trading. In addition, SAFEMOON, which was also born on BNB Chain two cycles ago, once reached a market cap of $17 billion, which can serve as a reference for the potential scale of BNB Meme when it truly takes off.

According to the latest report released by Grayscale Research Director Zach Pandl, as U.S. federal debt surpasses $40 trillion, Bitcoin's 90-day correlation with the Nasdaq 100 Index has dropped from over 60% to approximately 33%, while its correlation with gold has risen from near zero at the start of the year to above 50%, indicating that Bitcoin is shifting from a high-beta risk asset to an inflation-resistant store of value. Grayscale believes that expanding fiscal deficits and rising long-end interest rates will drive investors toward scarce alternative assets, positioning Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Zcash as primary beneficiaries. Among them, Zcash, featuring financial privacy, quantum resistance, and cross-chain interoperability, is considered to have the potential to challenge Bitcoin's network effect, despite its market capitalization currently accounting for less than 1% of Bitcoin's. Additionally, Grayscale notes that the current Bitcoin bear market has persisted for roughly 10 months, approaching the historical average bear market cycle of 11–12 months. Coupled with a macroeconomic environment that is becoming increasingly supportive, it suggests that current prices may represent a favorable entry point for long-term investors.
Odaily News - At the 2026 Wyoming Blockchain Symposium, CZ stated that Trump had previously mentioned Hyperliquid, and that CFTC Chairman Mike Selig would look for a path to bring the platform into the U.S. market. CZ believes that if Hyperliquid can operate in the U.S. in a compliant manner, it will open the door for perpetual contracts and more decentralized services to enter the U.S., serving as a major positive for the entire crypto industry. CZ noted that because of his stake in Binance, outsiders tend to view him as a supporter of centralized exchanges, but his fundamental reason for entering the crypto industry is his belief in decentralization. Some users choose Hyperliquid because the platform allows them to use it via wallet without requiring a traditional account or KYC process. CZ said that Hyperliquid's entry into the U.S. will not only benefit itself—more decentralized products and companies in its portfolio will also benefit—and it will bring more liquidity to international centralized exchanges, giving U.S. users more competitive prices when buying and selling crypto assets. At this stage, the crypto market is far from saturated, and competition between platforms is not the primary issue.

According to the comment letter released by the Hyperliquid Policy Center (HPC), it calls on the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) to establish a harmonized regulatory framework for perpetual contracts. The HPC asserts that while perpetual contracts lack fixed expiration dates, they exhibit traditional futures characteristics such as standardization, fungibility, the ability to be offset, and price convergence driven by funding rates; accordingly, cash-settled stock perpetual contracts possessing these traits should be allowed to be listed as "security futures." The HPC recommends that both agencies standardize classification criteria across different underlying perpetual contracts, retain exchanges' flexibility in product listing decisions, and modernize the security futures framework. It noted that clear regulatory guidance would help lower market entry barriers, foster exchange competition, and bring perpetual contract trading back to the U.S. market.
