Odaily News: A Fox Business crypto reporter posted on X that US House Republican Whip Emmer told Kristin Smith at the Solana Institute summit that he is concerned about the amendments to the BRCA. Emmer said: "I don't like the fact that you've essentially given up the safe harbor on the criminal liability side. I do worry that local district attorneys will generally turn it more into a weaponized tool." Emmer was the original proposer of the BRCA and first introduced the bill in the House in 2018.

According to Cryptopolitan, the latest data from Token Terminal indicates that the total supply of euro-denominated stablecoins reached $848.1 million on September 7, reflecting a year-to-date growth of approximately 22.6%, or a net increase of around $156 million. During the same period, US dollar stablecoins saw a net increase of merely $159 million; however, their base stands at $298.5 billion, making it 350 times larger than the euro stablecoin market. Regarding market concentration, EURC and EURCV collectively account for 82% of the euro stablecoin supply. EURCV, issued by SG-Forge—a digital asset subsidiary of Société Générale—holds a MiCA-compliant license and represents 19.6% of the market, marking it as the first stablecoin primarily backed by a licensed European bank subsidiary. On-chain distribution shows that Ethereum captured approximately $125 million in new issuances year-to-date, claiming a 69.4% market share, while Solana added around $30 million, securing 14.7%. Combined, these two chains accounted for nearly all annual growth. Conversely, Base witnessed a contraction, declining from $73.9 million to $58.7 million. Analysts point out that the expansion of euro stablecoins is predominantly supply-driven by issuers rather than demand-pulled by users. Liquidity for euro pairs within DeFi lending pools and perpetual contracts remains sparse, indicating that the supply-demand imbalance has yet to be resolved.

Odaily News - Solana Policy Institute CEO Miller Whitehouse-Levine stated that the window for the Clarity Act to pass before the November midterm elections is closing rapidly. Speaking at the Wyoming Blockchain Symposium 2026, he estimated that the probability of the bill becoming law before the midterms is only about 10%.Whitehouse-Levine described the bill as currently being in "August recess purgatory." He noted that the Senate has been working on the legislation for over a year, but as time in the current Congress runs out, completing the legislative process is becoming increasingly difficult.He added that the procedural motion scheduled for September 15 is only the first step in a series of votes needed to move the bill forward, so he remains "hopeful, but realistic about the odds."This assessment is more pessimistic than that of prediction markets. Polymarket currently shows a 21% probability of the Clarity Act being signed into law by year-end, with trading volume exceeding $7 million on the relevant market; Kalshi puts the probability at 23%, down from 50% less than a month ago.

crypto lending firm Figure Lending LLC offers cryptocurrency-backed loans, allowing borrowers to use Bitcoin, Ethereum, or Solana as collateral to access cash of up to 75% of the collateral's value while retaining ownership of their tokens. Such loans generally do not constitute a sale and typically do not trigger a capital gains event. Figure Lending LLC stated that borrowers should compare maximum loan-to-value ratios, fixed or variable interest rates, regulatory licensing, and liquidation terms. The firm offers fixed-rate loans with a 12-month term, a maximum annual percentage rate of 12.62%, and supports same-day funding without requiring a credit score, as approval is based on the collateral. Figure provides an optional liquidation protection feature, available in select states, which may defer liquidation during the loan term due to price declines; however, liquidation may still occur if the loan becomes delinquent. This feature does not apply to non-payment, default, or violation of loan terms, and declines in crypto asset prices may still trigger margin calls. (Decrypt)
Odaily News, Marinade Finance stated on the X platform that the Solana network came close to a halt this morning, with 28.83% of staked SOL losing connection, approaching the 33.34% halt threshold. This involved 90 validator nodes, with a total loss of approximately 333 SOL in rewards. The fault was caused by a routing error from service provider Teraswitch: an erroneous route from the Miami node was broadcast to Europe and the Asia-Pacific region, causing 12 nodes (LON1, AMS1-3, DUB1-2, FRA2, SGP1-2, TYO1-3) to lose valid routes. North America was unaffected, and the fault was resolved within 10 minutes. Marinade Finance pointed out that AS20326, an ASN hosting more than a quarter of the network's total staked amount, saw 94% of its staked volume go offline simultaneously during the fault, accounting for an actual 27.34% share, surpassing the 25% cap set by SFDP. Helius, the network's second-largest node, was offline for 33 minutes in total, with only a few nodes achieving smooth failover. Marinade Finance stated it will review staking concentration limits and push validator nodes to publicly disclose their failover capability information.
