Under the guidance of the People's Bank of China, Bank of Communications officially released a cross-border trade service plan based on the "Digital Currency Bridge" (CBETS) blockchain infrastructure, focusing on cross-border trade settlement and compliance needs, enhancing the collaborative efficiency of capital flow, information flow, and document flow through on-chain rights confirmation, smart contracts, and other means.The plan relies on Digital Currency Bridge to support multi-party participation and data sharing, providing services such as cross-border payment and trade background verification for import and export enterprises, financial institutions, and regulatory departments, aiming to reduce compliance costs, shorten settlement cycles, and reserve expansion space for the digital renminbi and cross-border financial infrastructure integration.

According to The Wall Street Journal, Chinese regulators are seeking to raise the threshold for humanoid robot companies to enter the public capital market. Sources revealed that the China Securities Regulatory Commission recently held informal talks with several investment banks and institutional investors, signaling an intention to increase the barriers for humanoid robot companies seeking to go public.This move is related to the market performance of Yushu Technology after its listing. The company surged 460% on its first day of trading, but the excitement faded afterward, with its stock price dropping about 50% from its post-listing peak, bringing its market value down to approximately $30 billion.

Former Magic Eden community data analysis contributor and founder of Magic Lab, Ben Gruenbaum, posted on X, accusing the NFT market Magic Eden of changing rewards, governance, products, and strategic direction after users locked up $ME for the long term. He stated that $ME has a fixed supply of 1 billion, of which 225 million are reserved for active user rewards over four years and are unlocked linearly, with the longest lock-up period being four years and no early withdrawal allowed. After distributing 10 million $ME in Season 1, an additional 2.3 million was added due to issues, and the rewards for Season 2 increased from 8 million to 10 million.The community fund was launched with 5 million $ME. The proposal supported by Magic Lab requested 295,000 $ME (approximately $177,000 at $0.60), but the budget shrank due to price declines. Users continued to lock up during the shutdown of the Bitcoin and EVM markets, as well as the Runes infrastructure and wallet, with rewards shifting to USDC. Magic Eden promised $75 million to Dicey, and some top stakers reported issues receiving USDC and have filed lawsuits. Gruenbaum stated that this is not a story about the token's decline, but rather about changes in ecosystem factors after users made long-term commitments.

Pantera Capital Junior Partner Jay Yu published an article titled "The Rise of Compute Markets," stating that computing power and data center spending have become a trillion-dollar category, but GPU procurement is still mainly done through group chats, over-the-counter brokers, and bilateral agreements. He noted that the financialization of computing power is still in its early stages, constrained by SKU, time, and location, but could become a commodity asset similar to electricity or oil in the next 5 to 10 years. Jay Yu believes that the computing power market may form a "hardware-supplier-cluster" structure similar to the electricity "grid-operator-node," with new cloud vendors being structural shorts on GPUs, while on-demand platforms and application layers are longs.He mentioned that for every $100 spent on inference at the application layer, about $45 flows to the on-demand layer, about $50 flows to the new cloud or GPU layer, and about $5 flows to routing layers like OpenRouter. NVIDIA can be seen as the "central bank" of computing power, having announced support for up to 25% residual value. He also stated that physical delivery has a more enduring moat, and indices, cash-settled exchanges, and financing tools will subsequently emerge, with participants including SF Compute, Vast AI, Runpod, Compute Exchange, and others. The computing power market does not have mandatory price transparency requirements, and basis risk may be greater.

The Watchdog Committee of the Arbitrum ecosystem (composed of Entropy Advisors and others) submitted a proposal to the governance forum on September 3, requesting a permanent ban on the projects Good Entry, Limitless, and APX Finance, as well as their founders, prohibiting their participation in all future ArbitrumDAO initiatives. The committee determined that these three projects engaged in grant abuse within the STIP and LTIPP incentive programs, involving a total amount of 457,553 ARB (approximately $76,000).Specifically, Good Entry received 200,000 ARB in the first round of STIP, of which 142,839 ARB flowed to 1,032 ineligible users, and there is evidence of self-farming by associated addresses, with the team refusing to cooperate with the investigation; Limitless exchanged all 75,000 ARB for USDC and cross-chain to Base, being classified as suspected theft; APX Finance was approved for 525,000 ARB, of which 239,714 ARB involved issues related to funds being held in the treasury, delayed distribution, and witch cluster problems. APX later merged with Astherus and rebranded as Aster, with approximately 70% of its assets located on the BNB Chain.According to the proposal, the three projects may defend themselves in the forum post before September 10. If the explanations are not accepted and the funds are not returned, the committee will initiate three separate Snapshot votes to decide whether to permanently ban the relevant projects and founders.

Well-known trader Bonk Guy posted that his stance on Solana and its related ecosystem is gradually shifting from pessimistic to bullish. Previously, he believed that Robinhood Chain and BNB Chain might outperform Solana in this cycle and had written a related analysis, but it has not been publicly released yet.The change in attitude mainly stems from Solana's recent renewed focus on the on-chain meme trading community, proactive communication from key individuals, and the official account and co-founder Toly beginning to publicly pay attention to ecosystem projects like STONK and USELESS. He believes this reflects that Solana is more actively supporting projects and communities that can drive ecosystem growth.He emphasized that his doubts have never been about Solana's technology and infrastructure, but rather about the ecosystem culture and the influence of certain profit-seekers on users. Given the recent changes, he has submitted his original bearish analysis to the Solana team and stated that if it is made public later, he will provide more insights and background on Solana's stance.

Documents obtained by The Intercept through a lawsuit under the Freedom of Information Act show that the U.S. Department of Defense once requested OpenAI to provide a version of artificial intelligence specifically tailored for the military, with a "very low refusal rate" for commands. This statement appeared in the updated contract for the 2025 prototype agreement "P00003," which is a two-year agreement worth up to $200 million, covering logistics, intelligence decision-making, and operational uses. OpenAI, Google, xAI, and Anthropic all agreed to develop such militarized prototypes in 2025.OpenAI spokesperson Nate Evans stated that the company never agreed to contract terms that included a "very low refusal rate," and the relevant documents were early drafts from the Department of Defense, with the final executed contract not containing that statement. Department of Defense spokesperson Jacob Bliss also indicated that the phrase did not appear in any current contracts. The Intercept pointed out that the documents obtained were not marked as drafts; a Department of Justice lawyer representing the Pentagon once confirmed that the document was a signed executed version, but later requested to disregard that confirmation and stated that further investigation was needed.The latest contract signed on February 27 allows OpenAI services to be deployed on military classified networks, with similar delivery terms completely redacted. OpenAI stated that it has drawn a red line regarding autonomous killing and surveillance of Americans, but the contract text allows the government to determine any use as legal.
