X Platform post by Xu Jiayin stated that Bitget has commissioned a third-party security team to conduct an independent forensic investigation into this security incident. Multiple teams are working together to verify remedial measures, confirm the attack vector, and assist in law enforcement cooperation. The investigation results will be announced promptly.He stated that Bitget has sufficient protection funds to cover the related losses and will restore withdrawals as soon as all potential security risks are eliminated.

Bitget CEO Gracy Chen stated during a live broadcast regarding the platform's attack incident that some of the affected funds may have a chance of being recovered. Regarding the resumption of withdrawals, Gracy Chen mentioned that Bitget needs to first investigate the relevant issues thoroughly. The technical team is currently advancing system repairs and security enhancements. The platform will only reopen the withdrawal function after confirming the system's security and ensuring that resuming withdrawals will not lead to further attacks by hackers.She stated that once a clear time window for the resumption of withdrawals is established, users will be informed immediately and an announcement will be made. Currently, no specific time can be promised, as the platform does not wish to make commitments that cannot be fulfilled.

Bitget CEO Gracy Chen publicly stated in a live broadcast regarding the platform's attack incident that the platform is currently preparing to resume withdrawals, but there is no accurate timeline for recovery yet. Bitget's internal and external technical teams are synchronously identifying the issues and formulating solutions, hoping to restore relevant services as soon as possible.Gracy Chen mentioned that the method of attack in this theft incident is different from previous security incidents that occurred at some exchanges. According to the current investigation, the hackers did not implement the attack through key leakage, but rather bypassed certain systems and initiated withdrawals through the system. She stated that key leakage is the worst-case scenario, but this incident is not the same.Due to the involvement of multiple cryptocurrencies and blockchain networks in this incident, Bitget is temporarily unable to directly open withdrawals and needs to confirm that funds are completely safe and develop a more secure handling plan before resuming. Gracy Chen stated that the platform has currently completed comprehensive loss prevention and will not experience further attacks; once the security issues are addressed more definitively, withdrawals will be reopened.

Writer and author of "The Price of Tomorrow," Jeff Booth, stated in a video interview with Bitcoin Magazine that the price target of $1 million for Bitcoin is "thinking too small." He believes that pricing Bitcoin in a constantly depreciating fiat currency is equivalent to valuing it within a system manipulated by currency devaluation, making such a target invalid. In his view, Bitcoin is not just a token or an asset, but the beginning of a decentralized, secure, and privacy-focused protocol stack, which will ultimately resemble the internet, and it is also the first true free market in human history.In the interview, Booth also discussed AI valuation and technological deflation. He believes that a free market will drive the prices of AI services toward zero, and this deflationary force brought by AI will conflict with a monetary system built on debt. He mentioned the United States' debt of up to $40 trillion, bond yields, and a financial system that is approximately $350 trillion in size and essentially insolvent, linking AI singularity theory, market fear, and monopolistic regulation.In the longer-term section, Booth talked about the adoption timeline of Bitcoin and emphasized that Bitcoin is not just an asset. He also discussed the global expansion of Bitcoin payments and the circular economy, as well as ideas such as private equity supported by Bitcoin and permanently held enterprises, outlining a deflationary future priced in Bitcoin.

According to a report from the Public Security Bureau of Linwu County, Hunan Province, on August 19, 2026, the Public Security Bureau of Linwu County, Chenzhou City, Hunan Province discovered fraud clues during routine inspections and successfully cracked a virtual currency investment fraud case, arresting two criminal suspects.Upon investigation, on May 1, 2026, the suspect Li met the victim, Ms. Yue, through private messages on a social platform, falsely claiming to teach virtual currency investment skills with guaranteed profits. He induced her to download a certain app to purchase Tether (USDT) and then exchange it for a newly issued virtual currency manipulated by his "superior." Li, in collusion with his "superior," created the illusion of rising prices to lure the victim into increasing her investment; once the funds were in place, they quickly crashed the market, causing the virtual currency's value to drop to zero. Ms. Yue lost approximately 30,000 yuan, while Li illegally profited tens of thousands of yuan, which was collected by his friend Lei and squandered.On August 19, the investigating police arrested Li; on September 17, Lei, who was suspected of collecting the stolen funds, was also apprehended. Both have been criminally detained according to the law. The police remind: virtual currency is not legal tender, and there are no "guaranteed profit" projects. Recommendations for high returns made through private messages online are all fraud traps. Do not easily trust investment recommendations from strangers or transfer money to unfamiliar platforms.

According to LatePost, the Alibaba Cloud Shadow team is developing an AI device called QwenBook, positioned as a native intelligent agent computer, resembling the Qianwen tablet. The project started in April this year, with a team of about 150 people, integrating models including Qwen3.8-Max and Qwen3.8-Flash. The complete product is expected to be released by the end of this year or early next year.The report states that QwenBook is similar in concept to the Doubao phone, both attempting to push the model to the system's core. After the launch of the first generation Doubao phone, WeChat, Taobao, Meituan, Pinduoduo, and others successively prohibited it from replacing user operations through screen reading and simulated clicks. The Nubia NaviX Ultra, which went on sale on September 16, retains the GUI approach, attempting to allow applications to open services to the Agent through MCP, A2A, or dedicated interfaces.

Dragonfly Managing Partner Haseeb Qureshi commented on the controversy surrounding the Zcash development fund, stating that the Zcash community has positioned itself as "the crypto version of Bitcoin" and has refused to continue adding more features to the protocol. To become a reliable store of value, Zcash ultimately needs to achieve protocol finality, but it still needs to advance Tachyon, quantum resistance, and comprehensive formal verification required to address AI network attacks, making it unsuitable for finality in the next one to two years.The development fund has played a necessary role during the phase of lacking private funding to support Zcash development, and under current rules, it will expire in 2028. However, as the price of ZEC has surged significantly, the scale of the fund has expanded by an order of magnitude; once the fund exceeds 100 million dollars, it will inevitably move towards institutionalization and face the risk of the allocation mechanism being politicized.He advocates for the continued retention of the development fund at this stage to complete the remaining technical work before protocol finality, but this round should be the last round of the development fund. Once Zcash meets the conditions for finality, the fund should gradually wind down rather than continue seeking new funding projects; future development needs can be spontaneously funded by holders and ecosystem supporters, similar to Bitcoin.In terms of governance, Haseeb does not support voting solely by token holders, believing that a store of value asset requires policy predictability, and pure token governance is too volatile. He supports limited participation by holders and believes that committee governance, while flawed, may be a more feasible solution. Haseeb also disclosed that Dragonfly holds ZEC and that he himself is a ZODL investor, but ZODL will not directly benefit from the development fund.

On September 14, 2026, Judge Arun Subramanian of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York issued an opinion and order denying the plaintiff's motion for a preliminary injunction. The case number is 1:26-cv-05474-AS, with the plaintiffs being market makers Susquehanna Securities, LLC and Susquehanna Investment Group, and the intervenor being market maker Citadel Securities LLC, while the defendants are John Does 1 through 100. The plaintiffs filed the lawsuit on June 29, 2026, claiming violations under Section 20A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and unjust enrichment claims.The plaintiffs allege that the defendants traded on significant non-public information, specifically an announcement on May 22, 2026, regarding "the Chinese government's crackdown on cross-border trading platforms," which led to a collapse of the relevant securities. The plaintiffs sought a preliminary injunction to restrict the 40 defendants, as reduced, from transferring, encumbering, removing, or otherwise disposing of the profits obtained through the alleged insider trading activities in their accounts at third-party brokerage firms, or sought a seizure order. The court found that the plaintiffs failed to demonstrate the elements necessary to prove that they may suffer irreparable harm, and the motion was denied.

The research institution IRF, focused on building decentralized financial infrastructure for AI agents, announced the acquisition of Nomina. The scope of the acquisition includes technology, intellectual property, brand, and infrastructure, with the most significant being Nomina's intent execution protocol SolverNet. The infrastructure related to Nomina has processed over 7.5 million transactions to date.SolverNet has gone live and has been validated in a production environment, covering the Ethereum mainnet and major Layer 2 networks such as Arbitrum, Base, and Optimism, and has integrated with protocols like Symbiotic, Gearbox Protocol, and Cygnus Finance. The intent mechanism allows agents to declare expected outcomes, while the solver network competes to deliver, handling complexities such as routing, cross-chain, and gas management at the underlying level.IRF will launch on-chain yield deployment, cross-chain and cross-currency fund transfers, as well as automated configuration and rebalancing strategies based on SolverNet, with each strategy expressed through a single intent and executed by the solver network. IRF plans to release related technologies in the coming months as part of the financial product roadmap for agents.

Corpay Chief Market Strategist Karl Schamotta stated that the Federal Reserve's decisive interest rate hike received support from all FOMC members and raised interest rate expectations, which will help restore market confidence in the Federal Reserve's determination to combat inflation and eliminate a major obstacle that has suppressed the performance of the dollar.

Carolyn Wilkins, a member of the Bank of England (BoE) Monetary Policy Committee, stated that the growth of dollar stablecoins may reinforce the global dominance of the dollar and increase the demand for U.S. Treasury bonds. She pointed out during a speech at Queen's University Belfast that dollar stablecoins can facilitate cross-border settlements and expand access to dollar-denominated assets outside the United States.Stablecoin issuer Tether's USDT and fintech company Circle's USDC held nearly $150 billion in U.S. Treasury bonds by the end of 2025, purchasing about $33 billion that year. Wilkins noted that large-scale stablecoin redemptions could force issuers to sell Treasury bonds, thereby amplifying volatility in pressured markets. Currently, the total circulation of stablecoins has exceeded $300 billion, with 98% of their value pegged to the dollar. Wilkins stated that this gives the dollar a significant first-mover advantage, and the development of the stablecoin market has implications beyond the cryptocurrency sector.The development of pound stablecoins is relatively slow. The UK's Financial Conduct Authority has tested potential issuers through a dedicated regulatory sandbox and finalized the UK's stablecoin issuance rules in June; the Bank of England has also tested the feasibility of using stablecoins alongside a simulated digital pound for cross-border trade payments.
