The B.AI platform has officially launched its “Self-Selected Service Provider” feature, marking a new era of high-flexibility customization for large-model API calls. This innovative feature introduces a dual-track mechanism: “BAI Official Mode” and “Self-Selected Service Provider Mode.” The former connects directly to the original vendor’s API, delivering maximum stability and high-concurrency support for core production environments; the latter targets testing and cost-sensitive scenarios, offering transparent, pay-as-you-go pricing discounts as low as 20% off list rates. To further help developers and enterprises reduce costs and improve efficiency, the platform simultaneously offers up to a 1:1 top-up bonus on top of the already ultra-low self-selected service provider discounts—enabling users to precisely control usage costs through compounded savings and accelerating AI innovation deployment. Users can now visit the B.AI platform to create their own customized API keys and experience this new service.
Block's Cash App is gradually rolling out stablecoin payment functionality to its nearly 60 million users. According to sources familiar with the matter, the feature currently covers approximately 25% of users and is expected to reach full 100% availability within this week.The core functionality supports users in depositing and withdrawing via USDC, allowing free transfers of funds between external wallets and Cash App balances, and using stablecoins as a settlement tool for payments rather than as investment products. It currently supports transactions across four blockchain networks, including Solana, Ethereum, Polygon, and Arbitrum. Due to the irreversible nature of on-chain transactions, incorrect addresses or unsupported network transfers may result in permanent loss of funds.Block CEO Jack Dorsey previously stated that despite his longstanding preference for Bitcoin, user demand for stablecoins has prompted the company to adjust its strategy.

Reportedly, Bybit has launched its AI sub-account feature, offering users isolated fund management and more granular permission controls. The AI sub-account employs an independent account architecture that isolates AI agent activities within a dedicated operational environment, preventing intelligent trading bots from executing unauthorized fund transfers or liquidations on the main account. Users can customize multiple constraints for the sub-account, including funding caps, withdrawal disablement, and leverage limits.
