Renowned trader Bonk Guy stated that MARSCOIN's current trend is "very clean," and a significant rise is expected in the fourth quarter, also noting that its fundamentals are improving.The analyst believes that as BNB and BNB Chain's influence increases in this cycle, the "Musk + CZ" narrative for MARSCOIN is further strengthened. He pointed out that in the last cycle, SHIB and DOGE's market capitalizations respectively surpassed 40 billion and 80 billion dollars, while MARSCOIN this time will combine elements from Musk, Binance founder CZ, and space rocket company SPCX. Additionally, Binance has currently supported the related ecosystem through SPCX rewards and part of its own trading fees, suggesting that the market may be underestimating MARSCOIN's potential performance in the coming months.

Investment bank Evercore stated that SpaceX's Colossus project offers significant EBITDA upside potential.

In an interview with Bitcoin Magazine, Jordi Visser presented the "Ghost Rails" argument, suggesting that the infrastructure built over 15 years in the crypto industry, such as lending, tokenization, and stablecoins, has never had human users but rather AI agents. He compared the current situation to the 14 years between the launch of Netscape and the App Store bringing the internet to the masses, stating that AI agents, rather than retail wallets, represent the turning point of the agency economy, and he believes this is "extremely positive" for Bitcoin.Visser indicated that tokenization will convert $90 trillion in illiquid assets into currency, and Bitcoin is the only asset that can survive for 20 years. In discussions with Grace Remington and Sean Hagan, he covered topics such as nominal growth bets, whether AI can outperform the U.S. debt burden, 24/7 working agent clusters, data centers for debt financing, panic in the bond market, and the "Santa Claus effect," asserting that belief outweighs innovation and expressing optimism about the demand for Bitcoin over the next 30 years.

Bitcoin News posted on the X platform that Bitcoin Core 32 is currently undergoing candidate version testing, with the developers aiming to release it on October 10.This version can speed up block validation by reading database data in parallel, but it will not change the block generation speed. Four wallet commands will default to the updated partially signed transaction format, while the old format will still be available as needed. Security patches can prevent custom wallet names from executing commands on non-Windows nodes, and in one test, the memory growth caused by unauthenticated HTTP was reduced from about 3.2 GB to about 3 MB.

According to Bitcoin Magazine, Blue Macellari, the head of digital assets at asset management giant T. Rowe Price, stated in an interview with Bitcoin Magazine that Bitcoin has now become the central topic of discussion regarding currency devaluation. She pointed out that bond vigilantes are making a comeback, U.S. Treasury financing is shifting from foreign buyers to domestic buyers, and the debt situations in Japan and Italy are not comparable to the U.S. buyer base.Macellari has 20 years of experience in emerging market sovereign debt and distressed debt investment, and later was responsible for establishing T. Rowe Price's digital asset business. In the interview, she reviewed the evolution of internal discussions on digital assets within the institution, the considerations for launching actively managed multi-token ETFs, and discussed the trends of asset management tokenization and automation, as well as the liquidity fragmentation risks brought by 24/7 trading.Additionally, Macellari assessed whether the demand for stablecoins under the GENIUS Act represents a substantive change or is merely wishful thinking, and she believes that devaluation trading has indeed driven institutional allocation to Bitcoin. She also stated that volatility can serve as a portfolio tool, and there are significant generational differences in Bitcoin allocation.

Bitcoin News posted on the X platform that Bitcoin Core developer Niklas Gögge warned that recent AI-driven vulnerability scanning is changing the security landscape of Bitcoin. Large language models have significantly reduced the cost of discovering vulnerabilities, allowing attackers to potentially find catastrophic vulnerabilities for just a few hundred dollars in computing costs.For Bitcoin Core, Project Loupe, the Bitcoin Red Team, and individual contributors have generated over 1,000 reports, but so far no high-risk or severe vulnerabilities have been found. Gögge stated that relying on stronger models to discover vulnerabilities before attackers is not a sustainable security strategy. Developers should build testing infrastructure that can proactively prevent entire classes of vulnerabilities through automated testing, fuzz testing, and property-based testing. Key components of Bitcoin Core have accumulated over 100 years of CPU fuzz testing and have undergone decades of Bitcoin node network simulation.

Existing benefits include free Prime membership, prepaid education programs, and healthcare coverage.

Recently, Ethereum Classic experienced a social engineering incident involving the Core-Geth client. The unreviewed ethereumclassic/core-geth v1.13.0 was released on September 14 and was promoted as a security update. A few mining pool nodes temporarily switched to this version but have since reverted to the long-term maintained etclabscore/core-geth v1.12.23.This unreviewed version modified key logic such as chain selection and node discovery, posing a potential risk of network split; the incident did not result in block loss, chain reorganization, fund loss, or service interruption.

Bitcoin Core 32 has entered the candidate testing phase this week, with developers aiming to release the official version on October 10. This update is primarily aimed at node operators and developers, as it can accelerate block verification speed and adjust the way wallets handle payments.According to the draft release notes, the update speeds up block verification by reading database information in parallel, but it will not change the Bitcoin block generation speed. Four wallet commands will default to the updated format for exchanging partially signed transactions, although applications can still request the old version. In terms of security fixes, the update prevents maliciously constructed wallet names from triggering commands on node computers, a vulnerability that affects non-Windows systems; another patch fixes an issue with excessive memory usage by the new HTTP server.Contributor Matthew Zipkin described a "memory exhaustion scenario" in the patch proposal, which he discovered while auditing the new HTTP server of Bitcoin Core using the AI model Kimi K3. GitHub user jeanpablojp found that unauthenticated requests could also lead to memory growth during the review; after patch revisions, 16 unauthenticated connections caused only about 3 MB of memory growth in 90 seconds, compared to 3.2 GB previously. The patch was merged on September 5.

The Federal Reserve FOMC economic projections show that the median core PCE inflation expectations for 2026, 2027, and 2028 are 3.4%, 2.5%, and 2.2%, respectively, compared to the June expectations of 3.3%, 2.5%, and 2.1%.

The Federal Reserve FOMC economic forecast shows that the median core CPI is expected to be 3.4% in 2026 and 2.5% in 2027.

Aave founder Stani Kulechov stated that after the Clarity Act failed to advance in the Senate, DeFi may need to take the "Uber path."The idea is to build products for millions of users, demonstrate the value of the technology, and make it so important that legislators have to find a way to regulate it.

According to CoinDesk, Bitcoin Core 32 entered its final testing phase on September 14, with the first candidate version marked, and the official release is expected on October 10. This version will not change Bitcoin's consensus rules but will mainly optimize fee estimation, accelerate block processing, and fix several security vulnerabilities.In terms of fee estimation, Bitcoin Core 32 introduces a new estimator based on unconfirmed transactions, which can quickly lower the recommended fee rate when network congestion eases, compared to the original estimator based on historical block fees. Regarding block processing, nodes can now use multiple threads to fetch transaction data from the database simultaneously, with a default of 8 threads, reducing the waiting time for nodes to catch up with the blockchain.For security fixes, developers have addressed a command execution vulnerability that has existed in non-Windows systems since Bitcoin Core 24. This vulnerability could allow authenticated users to execute commands on the node host through specially crafted wallet names when the walletnotify feature is enabled. Additionally, four commands used to create partially signed transactions will default to using PSBT version 2 format; the new web server was found to have a memory exhaustion flaw during auditing, where 16 unauthenticated REST connections could raise the node's memory from 46 MB to about 3 GB in approximately one minute, and this issue has been fixed before the official release.

Coreweave (CRWV.O) launched a multi-rack NVIDIA VERA RUBIN NVL72 cluster.

According to Slow Fog's disclosure, Core Lightning (CLN) has an experimental feature vulnerability that may put user funds at risk. Core Lightning's official statement indicates that they are investigating the vulnerability and recommend that all nodes with experimental features enabled immediately disable them and wait for a patch. High-risk options include --experimental-dual-fund, --experimental-splicing, and --experimental-peer-storage.Slow Fog stated that similar issues were fixed in August, where remote peers could specify arbitrary or even zero fees in channel opening or fund adjustment protocols. Local nodes would sign and write to the database without additional verification, potentially forcing nodes to incur abnormal fees or even trigger a crash loop, leading to long-term offline status for the nodes.Node operators are advised to immediately disable or remove all experimental parameters; do not completely shut down the nodes, but use offline mode to retain on-chain monitoring capabilities to prevent peers from forcefully closing channels while the node is offline; verify signatures after the official patch is released before upgrading, and be cautious of fake patch links shared by impersonating official accounts.
