CryptoQuant analyst Axel Adler Jr. pointed out that Bitcoin's two profit and loss indicators have reversed simultaneously in the past ten days. The 90-day realized profit and loss ratio has risen above 1 for the first time since the end of July (reaching 1.003 on August 26), and the unrealized loss ratio has decreased from 18.57% on August 16 to 7.35%, a drop of about 60%, marking the lowest level since May 11.The analyst stated that losses are no longer dominating the market, but the current readings are almost exactly at the breakeven line and need to be continuously confirmed. Historically, during the capitulation phase from 2022 to 2023, this ratio remained below 1 for 241 days, with a minimum drop to 0.368. The current loss pressure is still distant from historical deep capitulation. Both indicators show that holders' financial conditions have significantly improved compared to the low point in August, but true confirmation requires the realized profit and loss ratio to remain consistently above 1 and unrealized losses to stay low.

According to Bitcoin.com, Strategy (MSTR) Executive Chairman Michael Saylor proposed the concept of "Bitcoin Reform" in a published article, advocating that Bitcoin should break free from the dogmatic understanding of early concepts such as Satoshi Nakamoto, the white paper, and "must self-custody," and further integrate into banks, exchanges, enterprises, securities markets, and government systems.Saylor stated that self-custody remains an important right for holders to freely exit the intermediary system, but it should not be a mandatory obligation for everyone; users can also evaluate institutional services based on dimensions such as custodial isolation, collateral, audits, insurance, and withdrawal rights. He believes that Bitcoin has gradually evolved from peer-to-peer electronic cash and "digital gold" into "digital capital" that can support credit, equity, currency, and machine economies.

According to DIGITIMES, the Taiwanese semiconductor supply chain reveals that advanced packaging technology is diversifying, with Intel's EMIB becoming a key option. Google TPU has confirmed the adoption of EMIB packaging, and the first TPU using this technology has met yield standards, with technology, cost, and capacity performance all aligning with Google's original criteria. The likelihood of continuing to use EMIB in future generations of TPU has significantly increased.Against the backdrop of ongoing tight capacity at TSMC's CoWoS, as long as EMIB yield and technology remain up to standard, Google will continue to adopt it. MediaTek, as a relevant ASIC partner, has some managers in its U.S. team with Intel backgrounds, facilitating smoother collaboration between the two parties. Although MediaTek still relies heavily on TSMC, its success with Intel on TPU helps solidify Google's trust, secure more projects, and provide diverse packaging solutions to cloud customers.Previously, TSMC called for more suppliers to invest in advanced packaging to share the pressure during its earnings call. The supply chain generally believes that its own capacity expansion will not be limitless, making the diversification of packaging paths, such as those from Intel, a necessary direction, and related testing equipment and interface companies are also expected to benefit.

Chainalysis' latest report shows that the potential taxable on-chain cryptocurrency activity globally will reach at least $457 billion by 2025, while the OECD's Crypto Asset Reporting Framework (CARF) covers only about 14% of the on-chain taxable activities. The report estimates that the United States contributes approximately $112.6 billion, with North America leading at $134.6 billion, followed closely by the European Union at $125.1 billion.This estimate includes income generated from realized gains, mining, staking, and lending, as well as payments denominated in crypto assets, but does not include trading activities within centralized exchanges. The CARF will start data collection on January 1, 2026, across 48 jurisdictions, including the UK and EU, requiring eligible crypto platforms to collect customer and tax resident information and report transaction data to domestic tax authorities for cross-border sharing.The report points out that the CARF's design, centered around crypto intermediaries, is the main reason for the coverage gap. Colby Mangels, a former OECD advisor involved in the development of the CARF, stated that the framework is designed around intermediaries that conduct crypto transactions as their business, which leaves a significant amount of decentralized finance activities outside the reporting scope due to the lack of centralized operators or custodial relationships. Mangels noted that tax authorities are focusing on the progress of anti-money laundering regulations, including when DeFi platforms or their operators should be considered regulated crypto service providers.

NVIDIA will announce its second-quarter financial report after the U.S. stock market closes on Wednesday, with market focus mainly on five aspects: AI infrastructure financing, progress on Vera Rubin servers, open model layout, sales in China, and gross margin pressure. NVIDIA recently announced a large-scale AI infrastructure financing plan and is supporting a major data center project in southern Ohio. Investors are beginning to pay attention to the company's depth of participation in related transactions and how these financing arrangements will ultimately yield returns.In terms of products, NVIDIA stated that the next-generation Vera Rubin servers are expected to start shipping in the third or fourth quarter of this year. Previously, Blackwell was delayed for several months due to design flaws, so whether Vera Rubin can proceed as planned will be an important observation point.
