As U.S. consumer confidence data remains strong, driving expectations for high interest rates and rising U.S. Treasury yields, gold and silver are under pressure. According to CoinGlass data, gold (XAU) is currently priced at $4,225.56, with a 24-hour decline of 1.45%; silver (XAG) is currently priced at $62.69, with a 24-hour decline of 2.41%.During the period of significant market fluctuations, trading volume for Gate precious metal contracts surged: Gate silver contracts had a 24-hour trading volume of $59.5667 million, ranking second in the industry; Gate XAU gold holdings are approximately $417.78 million, also ranking second in the industry.

Polygon co-founder Sandeep posted on the X platform stating that the POL community has recently accumulated and permanently destroyed 100 million POL through on-chain revenue, accounting for about 1% of the total supply, and will additionally destroy approximately 25 million POL.Sandeep also mentioned that POL (formerly MATIC) is still "the most undervalued and overlooked project." According to him, Polymarket has launched perpetual contracts on Polygon, and with the recent upgrade, Polygon PoS is gradually evolving towards a more advanced blockchain, expecting to achieve a 1 millisecond confirmation time through block flow in the future. Additionally, OMS is about to enable Polygon to handle approximately 1 million new transactions daily.

According to CoinDesk, the Solana consensus upgrade Alpenglow has completed the switch to Testnet and Devnet on September 24 and 25, respectively, and is currently running on the two major public test networks, allowing application teams to test compatibility before launching on the mainnet. Alpenglow aims to reduce the final confirmation time from about 12.8 seconds to approximately 150 milliseconds by allowing validators to exchange votes directly instead of writing votes as transactions into blocks, enabling consensus to be reached within one to two rounds of voting.The Solana Foundation reminds that the transaction statistics containing validator votes may decrease after the upgrade, but user payments and transaction volume may not necessarily decline; applications that simply send transactions and read account balances do not need to migrate. The 150 milliseconds is a simulated target and has not yet been validated in a real mainnet environment, and wallet processing and exchange deposit confirmations may still increase waiting times. The exact date for the mainnet launch has not yet been announced.

According to Cointelegraph, blockchain security company SlowMist stated that its investigation has not linked the recent security warning caused by the iPhone Safari attack to confirmed cryptocurrency theft incidents.SlowMist told Cointelegraph that it has not independently confirmed any victims affected by the specific Safari attack samples it analyzed, and the strongest technical evidence it possesses covers iOS versions 18.4 to 18.6.2. The company stated that the reported impact range of "iOS 13 to 26.5" should be regarded as a preliminary assessment, and it tends to avoid claiming that iOS 26.5 is affected until reproducible technical evidence is obtained.SlowMist pointed out that the Safari attack reused the previously disclosed DarkSword exploit chain technology, which is independent of another investigation involving malicious components embedded in App Store applications called FomoPeek. The Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) disclosed DarkSword in March, describing it as an iOS exploit chain used by multiple threat actors since November 2025.

CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost stated that the cost basis of short-term holders (STH) of Bitcoin has confirmed a crossover above the cost basis of active long-term holders (LTH), indicating a shift in market momentum. Based on this, he judges that the Bitcoin bull market has been confirmed. This is the 5th occurrence of this signal in history, but he emphasized that there is still a possibility of misjudgment regarding the relevant indicators."Active LTH" is defined as long-term held supply that has moved at least once in the past 7 years, to exclude long-term dormant or illiquid BTC. Currently, over 3.5 million BTC that have been held for more than 10 years remain dormant, with this portion of supply increasing by an average of about 8,000 to 30,000 BTC per month. Since 2019, this indicator has only shown negative growth once, due to an early miner reactivating and transferring about 100,000 BTC, which is considered a relatively isolated event. Darkfost believes that this signal currently reflects positive changes in the Bitcoin market, with ETF liquidity inflows being one of the driving factors.

According to Catcher Predict monitoring, the event "The United States Confirms the Existence of Aliens" is currently among the top trading interests on the prediction market Polymarket, with a cumulative pool size reaching 702 million dollars. The option with the highest market consensus is "December 31," corresponding to a winning probability of approximately 3.65%.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin stated in his opening speech at the 2026 Shanghai Blockchain Week that cryptographic technologies such as Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE), obfuscation techniques, and iO, which were previously considered far from practical, are making rapid progress. Blockchain will also transition from primarily solving "who can send what assets" to an era where it can programmatically determine "who can see what information."Vitalik cited FOCIL (EIP-7805) as an example, stating that the plan involves 16 validators jointly providing a list of included transactions, reducing the ability of a single block builder to censor or delay transactions. He mentioned that in the next five years, more computations will be performed in parallel on user devices, memory pools, and block building stages, and Ethereum will continue to push for the final confirmation time to be significantly reduced from the current approximately 16 minutes to 8-32 seconds.

Renowned trader Doctor Profit posted on platform X, stating that Bitcoin has broken through the 50-week moving average (MA50) currently located at around $78,700. If it can maintain above this average by the end of the week, he will view this as a confirmation signal for the start of a new bull market. The current trend is similar to the structure from 2022 to 2023: Bitcoin has re-established itself above the 50-week average after being blocked for several weeks and experiencing a "bear trap."He pointed out that historically, Bitcoin has fallen below and then reclaimed the 50-week average 7 times, with 5 of those instances leading to a bull market, while the other two in 2011 and 2020 formed false breakouts. He noted that Bitcoin is currently still in the range of $71,000 to $82,000, and breaking through the $82,500 to $83,000 area would provide stronger confirmation; re-establishing above the 50-week average suggests that the aforementioned breakout may occur in the coming days. His personal strategy remains unchanged, as he will continue to hold spot positions and target $88,000 after overcoming the remaining resistance.

SpaceX has confirmed the deployment of 27 Starlink satellites.

Well-known analyst PlanB posted on the X platform, stating that Bitcoin has risen above the 50-week moving average (approximately $79,000), with the next target being the 100-week moving average (approximately $89,000).PlanB also mentioned that he has confirmed the end of the bear market, with the closing price in August at $78,571. Multiple indicators have started to improve, with the percentage of Bitcoin in profit rising from 50% to 72%, and the monthly RSI increasing from 41 to 51. Therefore, he judges that the bottom has passed and the outlook is bullish.

Cryptocurrency analyst tedpillows stated: Bitcoin looks set to ultimately close above the 50-week moving average.He mentioned that Bitcoin only needs to break through $83,000 to confirm that the bottom has been reached.

Aptos Labs announced that Confidential APT has been launched on the Aptos mainnet. Balances and transfer amounts are encrypted on-chain, and validators check zero-knowledge proofs to confirm the validity of transfers without viewing the specific amounts.Addresses remain public, and this feature is completely optional, allowing for public verification without public disclosure.

The DeBot team member Cat released a security incident progress announcement, confirming that the previous wallet security incident was an APT (Advanced Persistent Threat) attack, and no related financial losses have been found so far.The announcement stated that after analysis by multiple security teams and cloud service providers, there are signs of system intrusion, and the related private keys still pose a security risk. Therefore, the platform will continue to implement automatic fund isolation. Currently, DeBot is operating in a fully isolated environment, and users can still trade and withdraw normally, but other operations involving private keys have been suspended and will be gradually restored after the security audit is completed. A brand new security solution is being upgraded and is being audited by the Slow Mist team and cloud service providers. DeBot stated that this incident exposed security issues within the project, and the team will further upgrade security measures.

Kris Marszalek, co-founder and CEO of Crypto.com and founder of OG.com, tweeted that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has confirmed that its futures exchange has been approved to launch individual stock futures to the market through the Form 1-N document submitted by OG.com. The filing entity is the North American Derivatives Exchange (formerly Nadex, now operating both Crypto.com | Derivatives North America and OG.com).Kris Marszalek also stated that the team is working with the SEC and CFTC to plan the launch of individual stock perpetual contracts in the U.S., combining the product forms of the digital asset market with the U.S. capital market. Form 1-N is a notification registration document used by futures exchanges regulated by the CFTC, allowing them to also be regulated by the SEC, thus legally listing and trading securities futures products.

According to CoinDesk, hardware wallet manufacturer Trezor confirmed that due to a logistics supplier's information leak, the names, phone numbers, and addresses of an additional 67,000 customers were exposed.Another data breach disclosed about 200,000 records, including government ID numbers and verified wallet addresses. Address data stolen from a hardware wallet manufacturer in 2020 is still being used to send physical mail requesting Bitcoin.

According to the Slow Mist security team, the BonfireSwap router contract suffered a loss of approximately $50,000 due to a lack of access control in the transfer function. This function did not verify whether the caller was the from address, nor did it check the caller's authorization for the assets of the from address. As a result, attackers could set users who had pre-authorized the router as the from address and themselves as the to address, thereby stealing the victim's TOKEN and exchanging it through the same token pool.Slow Mist stated that a total of 41 TOKEN holders who had authorized the router were affected; the vulnerable contract address is 0x17e801e17cefc6334059189c178d4783830e03d3.
