In an interview with Bitcoin Magazine, Capriole Investments founder Charles Edwards stated that for Bitcoin to break through its historical high, substantial changes need to occur. Possible catalysts include significant advancements in quantum computing, a shift in Federal Reserve policy, the U.S. government directly purchasing Bitcoin, or a new round of stimulus events. He also pointed out that institutional buying through ETFs continues to provide strong support for the market.Edwards mentioned that AI-driven unemployment could change the Federal Reserve's policy path, thereby affecting Bitcoin's trend; the continuous rise in computing power constitutes a bullish signal on the Hash Ribbons indicator, and he discussed whether this computing cycle is different in the AI era. Additionally, he assessed whether Bitcoin is still undervalued from the perspectives of production costs, energy value, and MVRV, and talked about the unknown territory Bitcoin occupies in a global liquidity environment with a 5% interest rate.Regarding quantum computing, Edwards believes that a clear roadmap for quantum computing could instead become an upward catalyst for Bitcoin. He also discussed the crypto security risks brought about by superintelligent AI and what factors might trigger the next historical high for Bitcoin.

According to reports from Strait News, in March 2025, Zheng Mouyi, Zou Moumou, and others exploited the weak regulation and difficulty of evidence collection in offline USDT over-the-counter trading to plan a "black eat black" robbery crime under the guise of virtual currency offline trading.The gang raised over 340,000 yuan and invited virtual currency merchants for offline transactions. During the transaction, after the merchant transferred over 40,000 USDT into the virtual wallet controlled by the gang, Zheng Mouyi sprayed the victim's eyes with chili water on the spot and, along with others, violently seized all the transaction funds. After the incident, six involved individuals divided the stolen money. The day after the incident, the public security authorities quickly arrested all involved individuals, recovering most of the stolen funds and returning them to the victim.The Jin'an District Prosecutor's Office legally prosecuted Zheng Mouyi, Zou Moumou, and four others for robbery. In 2026, the court heard the case and sentenced the five defendants to fixed-term imprisonment ranging from five years and seven months to ten years and four months for the crime of robbery.

CITIC Securities released a research report indicating that as the performance of U.S. stocks during the domestic long holiday becomes desensitized to interest rates, investors' focus will shift to the upcoming third-quarter earnings reports of U.S. stocks starting next week.LSEG's consensus expectations show that the S&P 500's revenue and earnings growth rates for Q3 2026 are expected to reach 1.2% and 45.0% year-on-year, respectively, with a slight decline quarter-on-quarter. At the industry level, the year-on-year earnings growth rates for energy, information technology, materials, and healthcare all exceed 50%. The high growth in U.S. stock earnings may no longer be concentrated solely in leading technology companies, as the earnings contribution from non-tech sectors is significantly increasing.For Hong Kong stocks, although the overseas interest rate hike cycle combined with the restart of AI momentum trading continues to pressure liquidity, the fundamental expectations have bottomed out, and the earnings growth expectations for major broad-based indices have begun to be revised upward. The adjustment of industry earnings expectations is significantly differentiated, with some sub-sectors seeing upward revisions, while the earnings expectations for domestic demand-related industries still face downward pressure. The upcoming third-quarter performance will be an important basis for assessing the progress of recovery. We advise investors to remain patient with Hong Kong stocks, as short-term dividend strategies are expected to continue to outperform.

Crypto trader Rune stated on platform X that the official documentation of PaperTrade has disclosed a "vulnerability" risk in the pricing mechanism at the protocol level. According to the screenshots of the displayed documentation, attackers can manipulate prices using the Best Bid and Offer (BBO) from the Hyperliquid order book. This risk involves unresolved price manipulation pathways, contract economic mechanisms, risk exposure control, as well as operational protective measures and permission management mechanisms.In addition, Rune also forwarded a tweet from community user boblob, which revealed that two wallets are suspected of actively exploiting "attacks" on the PaperTrade platform, causing a slight fluctuation of about 10-20 basis points in the ETH price on the Hyperliquid platform through trades totaling approximately 20 million dollars. Boblob further added that there are obvious issues with the current PaperTrade protocol that need to be fixed as soon as possible, or it may affect the long-term sustainability of the protocol.

According to Cointelegraph, data from the French Ministry of the Interior shows that from January to mid-August 2026, France has experienced 90 cases involving cryptocurrency-related kidnappings, extortion, and violent thefts, averaging one incident every 2.5 days.Blockchain analysis company Chainalysis reported that as of mid-2026, there have been 30 publicly recorded incidents of violent attacks involving cryptocurrency in France; security company Gart.io tracked 73 real-world attacks occurring in France this year, surpassing the 66 in the United States and 27 in the United Kingdom.Eric Jardine, head of research at Chainalysis, believes that the surge in attacks is likely related to large-scale data breaches. The leak of French tax data and the user data breach disclosed by the cryptocurrency tax reporting platform Waltio in 2026 may have allowed attackers to obtain the identities, addresses, and asset information of cryptocurrency holders.The report also noted that over 40% of related attacks in France involve relatives or acquaintances of the victims, with criminals potentially identifying targets in advance through social media, on-chain data, and leaked information. French authorities are coordinating investigations through a specialized organized crime judicial agency.

Bitget, in collaboration with the digital asset research institution Block Scholes, has released the latest research report analyzing the synergistic effects of tokenized stocks and crypto assets within a unified trading account. In the report, Block Scholes simulated an investment portfolio with a total size of $1 million, covering AI and semiconductor tokenized stocks, BTC and ETH perpetual contracts, as well as Nasdaq 100 ETF perpetual contracts. Under a structure where accounts are mutually independent, the total margin required occupies about $340,000 in capital; however, in Bitget's cross-asset unified account, tokenized stocks can simultaneously be counted as collateral, reducing the required capital to about $175,000, a decrease of approximately 48.5%.The research report also analyzes the risk characteristics associated with higher capital efficiency. Stress tests show that when collateral and positions are driven by the same macro factors, the simulated portfolio using tokenized stocks as collateral reaches the estimated liquidation point after a market decline of about 21% in correlation; when using equivalent USDT as collateral, it withstands a decline of about 27% in correlation. The study indicates that while improving capital efficiency, it is also necessary to comprehensively assess the correlation between collateral and positions as well as their own volatility.Bitget CEO Gracy Chen stated that putting assets on-chain is just the first step; more importantly, it is to enhance the efficiency of capital usage across different markets. Bitget is promoting the collaborative operation of crypto assets, tokenized stocks, and other global assets under a unified capital framework through the UEX model. Currently, Bitget's cross-asset unified account (UTA) supports over 370 types of collateralizable assets, including 125 types of tokenized U.S. stocks. Eligible crypto assets and tokenized stocks can enter the same margin system, sharing collateral value and meeting margin requirements for different positions.
