Goldman Sachs has connected its approximately $100 billion government bond fund FTIXX to the digital asset settlement network Lynq, providing a new subscription channel for institutional-level crypto companies. The fund will be listed on Lynq, with trading handled by tZERO Securities, a broker-dealer registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. This is the first external fund introduced to the Lynq network, which previously only had a single investment product.Unlike most blockchain-based fund products on Wall Street, FTIXX has not been tokenized. BlackRock's BUIDL is a tokenized fund, and Franklin Templeton offers tokenized shares of money market funds through BENJI, while Goldman Sachs retains the traditional fund format of FTIXX, with Lynq opening new access channels for digital asset companies. Lynq CEO Jerald David stated that there is a convergence occurring between traditional market participants and digital asset market participants.For institutions using Lynq, FTIXX provides a place to store cash and earn returns during trading gaps, redeemable when needed. David mentioned that clients have been looking for government bond assets on the platform that offer yields different from existing tools. Lynq's partners include B2C2, Wintermute, Galaxy, FalconX, Crypto.com, and Fireblocks. The network operates on a private permissioned Avalanche Layer 1 blockchain and has connected over 30 institutional digital asset companies, with assets exceeding $89 million.

Solana posted on platform X that it has gradually reduced the target Slot Time from 400 ms to 250 ms, during which the network's block skipping rate remained stable, and the downtime caused by continuous block skipping has also been shortened.However, the shorter Slot Time has led to an increase in voting delays, with nodes in Asia and South America being the most affected. Therefore, further reducing it to 200 ms before the launch of Alpenglow still requires caution.

The yield on the 30-year Treasury rose to 5.542%, the highest level since 2004.This indicates that the market's pricing of long-term risks has significantly increased, with heightened concerns about inflation stickiness, the Federal Reserve maintaining high interest rates, and the sustainability of massive fiscal deficits and debt. The long-term borrowing costs for governments, businesses, and consumers are pushed higher, which typically suppresses stock market valuations and tightens global financial conditions, potentially restraining economic growth.

Analyst Darkfost pointed out that the MVRV ratio (Market Value to Realized Value ratio) of short-term holders (STH) of Bitcoin has risen to its highest level since November 2025. This increase was driven by the price breaking through the short-term holder cost benchmark of approximately $73,100, significantly enhancing market momentum between August and September.The current MVRV ratio is 1.15, indicating that short-term holders are, on average, in a 15% profit state, and their holding market value has exceeded the realized value. This level is worth close attention, as it may prompt short-term holders to take action, especially to realize profits.

Goldman Sachs Global Investment Research Department's South Korea stock analyst Chris Cha stated in a report on September 23 that KOSPI has the conditions for a short-term tactical breakout, but the continuous flow of liquidity from South Korean retail investors into the cryptocurrency market will make the index's subsequent upward movement more reliant on foreign capital and local institutions reconfiguring. The report noted that concerns about the Federal Reserve's interest rates have been partially digested by the market, and risk appetite has shifted towards proxy AI themes.The report pointed out that South Korean memory chips provide fundamental support, with fourth-quarter DRAM contract prices expected to grow double digits quarter-on-quarter, and the ramp-up of HBM4 capacity will continue to limit the supply of standard server DRAM. Samsung Electronics' large shareholder returns, continuous buying by institutions, and foreign capital turning into net buying may drive KOSPI towards the resistance zone of 7000 to 7200 points.The report also indicated that the capacity of local South Korean retail investors to absorb has weakened. After Bitcoin returned to $85,000, cryptocurrency trading in South Korea has heated up. According to DefiLlama data cited in the report, Upbit's single-day spot trading volume on June 13 was approximately $770 million, which rose to $1.817 billion on September 22, an increase of about 136%. Based on the total trading volume of $3.27 billion on that day across South Korea's five major trading platforms, Upbit alone accounted for over half. Goldman Sachs believes this will make KOSPI more reliant on foreign and institutional buying in the future, and October is a critical window to test whether foreign capital will continue to increase its investment in South Korean semiconductor and AI assets.
