News linked to both this project and an event.
well-known trader Bonk Guy posted in a TG channel stating that Arc is essentially a stablecoin public chain, and suitable use cases such as stablecoins may be found in the future. Although he has already bought Meme coins on the Arc chain, he plans to hold them for only a few days at most, and emphasized that if participating in Meme coin trading on Arc, it should be treated as a short-term opportunity.Bonk Guy further pointed out that for a long time, Arc has been one of the "best-executed" public chain launches. In the early stages after launch, the project connected to multiple key platforms such as FOMO and DEX Screener, with major launch platforms including Argus, Tolly, Lift, and Long. However, Arc is not the next Robinhood, BNB, or Solana, and users should participate cautiously, noting that treating it as a similar public chain may lead to losses.

in response to community skepticism, Arc ecosystem Launchpad Long posted on X platform stating that the stock tokens issued by Long are backed 1:1 by real stocks held on Robinhood. The relevant asset backing can be verified through on-chain bridge vaults, and 1:1 redemption is available between Robinhood Chain and Arc.It stated that Arc native USDC currently has approximately a 2x premium due to the cross-chain bridge not yet being open, causing stock tokens denominated in it to show prices lower than the underlying stock market prices. With the Arc public mainnet and native USDC cross-chain bridge opening on September 16, the premium is expected to gradually return to normal. At that time, Long also plans to provide deep liquidity for the CRCL/USDC trading pair, and launch a stock rewards model, Launchpad native USDC support, and more stock issuers.Previously—hilariously—Arc mainnet will launch on September 16. BonkGuy posted today stating that it has recently begun short-term positioning in Arc, having already purchased LONG, the native token of Arc's main Launchpad, as well as the top three Meme coins by market cap on the platform. Subsequently, crypto KOL 0xShawn stated that the long.supply platform is a platform that has rug permissions at any time.

Odaily News: Nate, co-founder of Long.xyz, stated on the X platform that Long.xyz will continue to build related assets and products around Robinhood Chain, adhering to the "RWA pairings only" development direction, which focuses on RWA asset pairings. He believes this model is expected to create a brand-new asset class and further bridge on-chain assets with the real world.Nate stated that both BONER and MEME experienced rapid growth after their launches, and continued to develop after their initial surges, with the liquidity of related assets continuously deepening. He believes that Long.xyz's RWA pairing model has been preliminarily validated, is still in its early stages, and the next phase goal is to further expand scale and move toward "100x" growth.

Odaily News - Coinbase has disclosed the architecture and application of its internal AI system "CEEcil." This system is not a simple chatbot but is designed as an AI agent that functions like a "team member." It can be mentioned in Slack, and possesses long-term memory, proactive follow-up, and judgment capabilities.CEEcil retains team context through a three-tier memory mechanism: in the background, it continuously extracts information such as decisions, blocked items, and owners from authorized channels; each night, it consolidates short-term observations into long-term summaries; and when answering questions, it retrieves historical memories, recent conversations, and real-time data on demand. The system also adopts a tiered model architecture, where simple queries are prioritized for processing via APIs or knowledge bases, and only complex, multi-step tasks are delegated to more powerful AI models, thereby reducing cost and latency.In practical applications, CEEcil can proactively join relevant Slack discussions, send emoji reactions, and automatically follow up when issues go unaddressed. Coinbase states that the system also once refused to submit operational documents containing customer identity information to Git, suggesting the use of redacted versions or compliant storage methods instead—demonstrating a certain level of security judgment.Architecturally, CEEcil consists of a Go service and an AI agent runtime, and connects to tools such as memory retrieval, knowledge bases, real-time queries, and Slack via MCP. Coinbase also has set up a real-time "kill switch," call limits and spending caps, audit mechanisms, and requires human review and merging of the code it generates.Coinbase says CEEcil is now able to help teams handle production incidents and answer expert knowledge that previously would have required waiting hours to obtain. In the future, the company hopes to expand this model into multiple AI agents tailored to specific teams, enabling AI not only to "answer questions" but also to continuously remember, proactively participate, and complete actual work.

Odaily News, Justin Sun stated at the Bitcoin Asia 2026 conference in Hong Kong that the threat of quantum computing to blockchain and the entire financial system is widespread, with traditional banks such as JPMorgan facing the same risks. Due to the highly decentralized nature of the Bitcoin community, which involves multiple participants including miners, exchanges, and WBTC, reaching a quantum-resistant consensus will take a considerable amount of time. Justin Sun stated that TRON has been researching quantum-resistant mechanisms over the past year, having released a quantum-resistant address solution and launched it on the testnet in the first half of this year. The project plans to upgrade the entire network into a mainstream crypto network with quantum-resistant capabilities by the end of this year.

According to CNBC, two senior U.S. Treasury officials revealed that the Treasury may tap the Treasury General Account (TGA), which holds a balance nearing $1 trillion, to fund its recently announced expansion of a government bond purchase program. Utilizing the TGA would grant the Treasury greater capacity to influence long-term bond yields.
QCP reported that Bitcoin's rise is linked to declining US long-term Treasury yields and a weakening US dollar, following the US Treasury's announcement to expand the scale of its long-term Treasury liquidity support repurchase agreements starting September 9. Markets will now focus on the US July PCE data on August 26, the Jackson Hole Global Central Bank Symposium from August 27 to 29, and the Federal Reserve's policy meeting on September 15–16. QCP believes that the key factor for the current cryptocurrency market is whether spot demand can sustain itself following initial position adjustments, particularly amid the backdrop of rising leverage.
According to TechFlow research, Morgan Stanley's August 20 report noted that the U.S. Treasury will increase the size of its liquidity-supporting repo operations for the 10-to-20-year and 20-to-30-year tenors from $2 billion per transaction to at least $4 billion, effective September 9. This marks the first adjustment to the repurchase volume outside of the quarterly refinancing window since the repo program launched in May 2024. The two tenors combined add $1.6 billion in notional amount, corresponding to approximately $19.3 million in DV01 (price change per one-basis-point move in rates), with a risk impact roughly double that of the November 2023 "supply surprise." Morgan Stanley stated that the Treasury's decision to expand repurchases ahead of schedule outside the quarterly refinancing window aims to signal close monitoring of long-end interest rate dynamics to the market, thereby buying time for the November refinancing window. The recent rise in the 10-year Treasury yield and curve steepening primarily reflect the market's repricing of energy prices and central bank policy trajectories, rather than concerns over deficits or supply. Morgan Stanley maintains its recommendation for a 7-year versus 30-year Treasury curve steepening trade, targeting a spread of 100 basis points (currently around 71 basis points). On the FX front, coordinated volatility in gold and the Swiss franc hit an annual peak on August 19; should the U.S. dollar policy narrative reassert itself, EUR/USD is likely to approach 1.2150.
