According to Investment World citing Quantum Bit reports, DeepSeek has publicly disclosed the technical details of the system DSec (DeepSeek Elastic Compute) used for training Agents, authored by Liang Wenfeng. This system can generate over 5,000 sandboxes per second, reaching 3 million in a day, with a peak simultaneous operation of 380,000; supporting this scale is a single cluster with approximately 160 nodes, 30,000 CPU cores, and 250TB of memory.DSec prepares four types of backends for four categories of tasks: FnCall, Container, MicroVM, and Full VM, with the training side called through a unified Python SDK libdsec. The scheduling chain includes IAM, API Server, scheduling engine, node Edge, network proxy Aether, and components within the sandbox Chronus. The environment is divided into three layers of read-only images: base image, workspace, and toolkit, which are used in combination at startup. Runtime data from the paper shows that the actual read ratios of Python, Java, and C++ container images are approximately 6.0%, 9.2%, and 8.7%, respectively.Starting from DeepSeek-V4.1, the Agent loop has been moved to the DSec worker container, no longer bound to the GPU Pod lifecycle. The security section disclosed reward hacking during training, including actions such as overwriting system files, swapping file data blocks, scanning networks, and triggering kernel crashes. Defensive measures include AppArmor and eBPF-based network filtering, but reports indicate that these measures do not completely resolve the issues.

According to The Information, citing informed sources, DeepSeek CEO Liang Wenfeng listed training large models with domestic chips such as those from Huawei as one of the company's biggest bets at the latest closed-door investor meeting, stating that this must succeed. DeepSeek expects to receive a new batch of Huawei chips for training as early as the fourth quarter of this year, although the specific models and quantities have not been disclosed.Liang Wenfeng believes that Huawei chips are expected to catch up with Nvidia in just a few years and hopes that DeepSeek will adapt to hardware beyond Nvidia in advance. DeepSeek is still using Nvidia chips to train models. In May of this year, Liang Wenfeng estimated that training the top-tier large models would require about 50,000 Nvidia GB300 chips, while switching to Huawei Ascend 950 would require about 200,000 chips, with the biggest issue at that time being insufficient supply from Huawei.

According to The Block, the Blockchain Association and the Crypto Council for Innovation filed a preliminary injunction motion on September 9 in the Sangamon County Circuit Court in Illinois, requesting to halt the new cryptocurrency tax in the state before it takes effect. This summer, Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker signed the Digital Asset Tax Act, which proposes a 0.2% tax on digital asset transactions, set to take effect in January 2027.Previously, the two associations, along with the Digital Chamber, filed a lawsuit against the state in August. In a 34-page motion, the organizations stated that the tax is unprecedented and has caused "irreparable harm" to industry members, and that if the bill takes effect, it will force businesses to comply hastily without clear guidance, facing the risk of criminal penalties. They also pointed out that the law violates the Illinois Constitution by implementing differential taxation on digital assets and contravenes the federal Internet Tax Freedom Act, which prohibits discriminatory taxes on e-commerce. The Illinois Governor's office has not yet responded to requests for comment.

Spain's largest cryptocurrency exchange Bit2Me announced the establishment of an independent company Bit2Shield (registered name CryptoShield S.L) to assist courts, police, and financial institutions in tracking, seizing, storing, and selling cryptocurrency assets. This department will support investigators in extracting wallet data, locating cryptocurrency assets, and issuing digital signature forensic reports that can be used in court, while also being responsible for fraud investigations, source of funds verification, and providing training for police, judges, and banks.This move formalizes the work Bit2Me previously conducted for public institutions. In 2025, Bit2Me handled seized cryptocurrency assets worth 1.5 million euros (approximately 1.74 million dollars) for Interpol, Europol, and the Spanish police, using blockchain analysis company Chainalysis to track the assets. Bit2Shield will store seized assets in cold wallets that require multiple signatures and arrange for their sale when ordered by authorities, with proceeds transferred to government bank accounts in euros.Bit2Shield is part of Bit2Me's expansion from retail trading to banking and public institution infrastructure, with investors including Bankinter, Unicaja, Cecabank, Telefónica, and Tether. Since Bit2Shield focuses on investigations, forensics, and training, it is not considered a cryptocurrency service provider under the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA); any operations involving the exchange of cryptocurrency for euros will be handled by Bitcoinforme S.L., an entity authorized by the Spanish securities regulator MiCA under Bit2Me.

According to Digital Asset, on August 20, members of the Korean National Power Party, including Yoon Tae-yong, proposed an amendment to the Specific Financial Information Act, which aims to grant the Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU) direct enforcement authority over unreported virtual asset service providers.According to the amendment, anyone can report illegal activities to the FIU. Upon receiving a report or discovering suspected violations, the FIU can initiate investigations and analyses, and refer the case to or notify investigative authorities. The proposal points out that while current laws impose reporting and anti-money laundering obligations on virtual asset service providers, there are no direct enforcement measures against unreported operators, posing risks of money laundering and illegal cross-border transfers, making it difficult to respond quickly relying solely on inter-agency coordination.

According to the complaint, the exchange claimed that Michigan's laws constitute a "conflict of priority," as these laws undermine Congress's efforts to establish a unified federal regulatory framework.

U.S. District Judge Jed S. Rakoff in New York has denied the emergency temporary restraining order application filed by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), which aimed to stop the state of New York from advancing its enforcement case against the prediction platform Kalshi. The judge found that the CFTC failed to demonstrate a likelihood of success on the merits of its case and did not prove the existence of irreparable harm. However, the denial was made "without prejudice," allowing the CFTC to refile the relevant motion by August 7.New York Attorney General Letitia James filed a lawsuit against Kalshi last Friday, accusing it of operating an illegal unlicensed prediction business by offering contracts on events such as sports and elections. The state of New York had issued a cease-and-desist order to Kalshi as early as October 2025. The core dispute in this case revolves around whether federal commodity law takes precedence over state law—state authorities believe that event contracts are predictions subject to state law, while the CFTC and Kalshi argue that they are derivatives under the exclusive jurisdiction of the CFTC.

According to Sifted, the EU's Artificial Intelligence Act officially entered a new enforcement phase this week, with regulators beginning to require companies to label AI-generated content and fulfill disclosure obligations when users interact with AI technology.

James urged cryptocurrency platforms to comply with anti-money laundering, know your customer, cybersecurity, and market monitoring requirements, and to take financial responsibility for preventable fraud. Her office has received nearly three times the number of cryptocurrency fraud complaints in the past three years, with related losses approaching $500 million over the past five years.

The U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin dismissed the CFTC's request for a preliminary injunction to prohibit Wisconsin from enforcing sports-related event contracts on platforms such as Kalshi, Coinbase, Robinhood, Polymarket, and Crypto.com. The court found that the CFTC failed to demonstrate a likelihood of success on its claim—that the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) defines "swaps" to include sports event contracts—and that gambling regulation falls within the traditional police powers of the states, with federal law not clearly indicating an intent to preempt state law.Additionally, the court also denied the intervention requests from Kalshi, Crypto.com Derivatives North America (CDNA), and the American Gaming Association (AGA). The substantive litigation between the CFTC and the state of Wisconsin will continue to proceed.

According to The New York Times, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange Binance quietly adjusted its law enforcement cooperation policy last April, requiring law enforcement agencies in various countries to forward relevant requests to foreign government agencies for processing, which must go through international treaty procedures, significantly extending the response time.Police representatives from five European countries reported at a law enforcement meeting in the Netherlands that, except for urgent cases involving child sexual abuse, terrorism, or threats to life, the vast majority of requests were forwarded to the UAE government, where Binance is registered, severely hindering investigations.Meanwhile, several senior employees from Binance's compliance team have left one after another, further intensifying external concerns. Binance denied slowing down cooperation, stating that this move aims to ensure compliance with data privacy regulations.

Binance UAE has adopted a policy to transfer most requests from foreign law enforcement agencies to the UAE and judicial assistance treaty process, resulting in slower access to user data.European investigators and U.S. prosecutors have stated that the relevant changes make it more difficult to track down fraudsters, combat money laundering, and quickly freeze or seize assets. Binance will still respond directly to cases involving child sexual abuse, terrorism, or imminent threats to life.Binance stated that it has not reduced cooperation with regulatory and law enforcement agencies and defined the new process as a stronger safeguard that meets regulatory standards. The company's compliance operations continue to face ongoing scrutiny.
