Сообщение ChainCatcher, согласно отчету Bloomberg, TikTok разрабатывает функцию "пиринговых" платежей, позволяющую пользователям переводить деньги друг другу через личные сообщения. Соответствующие доказательства были получены из кода американской версии приложения TikTok. Дизайн взаимодействия этой функции уже достаточно завершен: получатель может "нажать для принятия", чтобы завершить получение, а отправитель может прикрепить текстовое сообщение. Изменения статуса транзакции будут сообщаться отправителю в реальном времени через push-уведомления, что делает опыт похожим на Venmo, принадлежащий PayPal.Представители TikTok ответили, что эта функция "в настоящее время не тестируется на каких-либо рынках", и в отчете также указывается, что нет признаков, гарантирующих, что TikTok обязательно запустит эту функцию. Однако наличие кода, а также то, что TikTok нанимает сотрудников для финансовых услуг на таких рынках, как США, указывает на то, что компания исследует это направление.TikTok накопил опыт в области платежей в Юго-Восточной Азии, его платежный продукт TikTok Pay работает во Вьетнаме, Малайзии и Таиланде, в основном используется для платежей при покупках в TikTok Shop. В первой половине 2025 года GMV TikTok Shop в Таиланде достиг 5,419 миллиарда долларов, что на 162% больше по сравнению с прошлым годом. У TikTok более 1 миллиарда активных пользователей по всему миру, из которых около 170 миллионов находятся в США. После выхода новости акции таких компаний, как PayPal, значительно упали в тот же день. Аналитики считают, что если эта функция будет реализована, это окажет прямое влияние на позицию Venmo на рынке переводов между знакомыми в США, где у Venmo около 67 миллионов активных пользователей. Однако регуляторные факторы остаются основным вызовом для TikTok в расширении платежного бизнеса в США.

Сообщение от ChainCatcher, платформа визуализации данных на блокчейне Bubblemaps выпустила предупреждение о том, что текущая мем-криптовалюта XST, активно продвигаемая на TikTok, имеет высокий риск концентрации поставок ------ 74% от общего объема поставок контролируется централизованно, что демонстрирует типичные характеристики Rug токенов, текущая рыночная капитализация которых составляет около 70 миллионов долларов.Bubblemaps призывает инвесторов избегать подобных проектов, если вы видите подобный контент на рекомендованных страницах TikTok, игнорируйте его.В последние годы TikTok стал важным каналом распространения низкокачественных мем-криптовалют, создавая иллюзию доверия с помощью видео с публичными личностями, сгенерированными ИИ, и ложных связей, в сочетании со структурой централизованного владения токенами, что после снижения интереса формирует типичные высокорисковые Rug токены.

Сообщение ChainCatcher, основатель ByteDance Чжан Имин на собрании всей команды Seed в прошлом месяце четко заявил, что компания не будет использовать дистилляцию моделей как кратчайший путь к большим моделям, даже если из-за этого временно отстанет от отечественных конкурентов. Он потребовал от команды готовности пожертвовать краткосрочной выгодой ради долгосрочных целей.Дистилляция означает, что новая модель учится на выходах более сильной модели, что может сэкономить время на обучение и вычислительные ресурсы. Внутри ByteDance считают, что этот выбор сделает языковую модель Seed более трудной для догоняния таких отечественных конкурентов, как DeepSeek, Kimi и Цяньвэнь в краткосрочной перспективе. Однако ByteDance больше беспокоит политический риск: компания долгое время подвергается проверке со стороны правительства США из-за TikTok, и если ее обвинят в массовом извлечении возможностей передовых моделей США, Вашингтон может снова оказать давление на TikTok. Ранее Anthropic обвинял DeepSeek, Лунную Тень, MiniMax, Zhìpǔ и Alibaba в массовом извлечении возможностей Claude, но не упоминал ByteDance.
