According to CoinDesk, the index provider MSCI has launched a new round of consultations, proposing to exclude so-called "non-operating companies" from its Global Investable Market Indexes. This classification will no longer use the proportion of crypto assets as the sole threshold but will adopt a two-step screening process: first, it will check whether operating assets exceed 50% of total assets; those that do not pass will then be assessed based on five financial ratios: operating asset intensity, expense intensity, cash flow, fair value intensity, and capital dependence. If at least four of these do not meet the standards, they will not qualify for inclusion.If the current data is applied to the MSCI ACWI IMI Index, Bitcoin-holding companies Strategy (MSTR), Metaplanet (3350), and uranium holder Yellow Cake will be excluded. Strategy has cumulatively held approximately 840,400 BTC since 2020, while Metaplanet holds about 43,000 BTC. MSCI's description of "non-operating companies" refers to businesses that create value by accumulating and holding non-operating assets, have limited operating cash flow, and rely on external financing for expansion.The consultation for collecting opinions will end on September 30, with results expected to be announced around October 16; even if approved, the related adjustments will not take effect until the index review in November 2026 at the earliest. Previously, a consultation in October 2025 regarding "digital asset treasury" companies, which set a standard of 50% for crypto asset proportion, had caused market fluctuations and industry opposition, ultimately being postponed.

The Nanya Plastics Electronic Materials Division has issued a price increase notice due to a severe imbalance in supply and demand in the global electronic materials market, with core raw material prices continuously rising across the board. The shortage of glass fabric is particularly severe, and procurement costs are uncontrollably rising. The company has decided to increase the prices of copper foil substrates (CCL) and prepreg by 20% to 25%, effective September 1. This is one of the larger-scale price adjustments in the upstream materials industry for PCBs recently. Copper foil substrates are core raw materials for printed circuit boards, and their price fluctuations will directly impact the PCB and downstream electronic terminal industries. The notice is based on the shipping date and will take effect from September 1. Nanya Plastics stated that it will continue to monitor supply chain dynamics and respond to changes in the market environment.

According to South Korean media ZDNet Korea, Samsung Electronics is adjusting the original purpose of its NRD-K Line 2 at the Giheung campus from a research and development facility to a wafer foundry line, with the main target product being the 2nm base chips required for NVIDIA's HBM. This production line is expected to be operational in the second half of 2028, adopting a "Send-Fab" model, which involves receiving wafers from other mass production lines and performing specific processes.NRD-K is the most advanced composite research and development campus built by Samsung Electronics to seize future semiconductor technology, with a total investment of approximately 20 trillion won, planning for three production lines, of which the first line is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2024. This adjustment aims to proactively respond to the expansion of HBM demand driven by investments in AI infrastructure. Samsung plans to first apply the 2nm process to custom HBM and HBM5 to maintain performance advantages.Industry insiders point out that the scale of NRD-K Line 2 is relatively small, making it suitable for operation in the Send-Fab format. However, there are still about two years until the production line is operational, and the final purpose may be adjusted again based on market conditions. Samsung had previously considered using this production line for DRAM production, but after modifications to the relevant plans this month, DRAM capacity will be more concentrated in the Pyeongtaek campus. Equipment procurement orders have not yet been officially issued.

According to DIGITIMES, NVIDIA's next-generation AI platform Feynman aims for mass production in the second half of 2028, utilizing TSMC's A16 process and incorporating SoIC 3D stacking and CPO technology. The Rubin generation focuses on integrating multiple small chips with HBM, while Feynman further develops towards 3D small chips, SoIC, and CPO. The report indicates that TSMC is accelerating the construction of related production capacity, with the original plan for SoIC monthly capacity to reach 20,000 pieces by the end of 2026, now updated to a target of 50,000 pieces by the end of 2027.The construction progress of TSMC's Chiayi AP7 and Tainan AP8 is also accelerating, with AP7 planned in 8 phases. P1 and P2 have entered installation, P3 and P4 have obtained construction permits, and P5 to P8 are still in planning. In addition to mass-producing Apple-specific WMCM, the factory will configure SoIC, CoPoS, and CPO production lines according to customer demand. NVIDIA has rapidly shifted its R&D and supply chain resources to the Feynman platform, and the spillover effect of TSMC's advanced packaging orders continues to expand, with Siliconware becoming the main testing and packaging factory for NVIDIA's CoWoS and CPO orders. The NVLink interconnect bandwidth of NVIDIA's Feynman platform is expected to exceed 1 PB/s, further improving from Rubin Ultra's 520 TB/s. TSMC's COUPE technology integrates EIC and PIC in 3D through SoIC to form a light engine, advancing optoelectronic conversion from traditional circuit boards to the internal packaging structure. Since 2026, NVIDIA has invested over $40 billion in building the AI ecosystem, covering areas such as models, wafer manufacturing, data centers, and optical communications.

Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich stated that the company has launched a new bond issuance program called BitBonds and has completed its first issuance.This issuance, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Metaplanet Securities, involves the issuance of Series 21 to 24 unsecured ordinary bonds under Japan's small-scale private placement system, raising a total of approximately 200 million yen. The scale is pilot in nature, aimed at establishing a framework for subsequent bond issuance, distribution, and management.

According to CoinDesk, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) will once again delay the launch of its innovative exemption program for tokenized assets due to concerns raised by Wall Street and the White House. The exemption was originally intended to provide U.S. crypto companies with a regulatory sandbox of 12 to 36 months, allowing them to issue and trade tokenized securities.The core controversy lies in whether the exemption terms allow third parties to issue stock tokens without the consent of the listed company. SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce defended on the X platform that the framework is limited in scope, only facilitating the digital representation trading of existing equity securities, rather than synthetic products.

Chip giant AMD plans to raise up to $5 billion through a four-part bond issuance, which, if completed, will become one of the largest bond financings in the company's history.It is reported that AMD is increasing capital investment to meet the rapidly growing demand for artificial intelligence computing. Previously, the company had reached significant cooperation agreements with Anthropic and Microsoft (MSFT), committing to provide up to $5 billion in support to Anthropic.The funds raised from this bond issuance will be used for general corporate purposes, including potential debt repayment. As of now, AMD has approximately $875 million in bonds maturing next month.The market believes that AMD's recent continuous expansion in AI chips and computing infrastructure will provide financial support for further investment in AI business, expanding the supply chain, and promoting strategic cooperation.

Garrett Jin released this week's market report, characterizing the rebound in the South Korean market as a wide-ranging fluctuation rather than a new trend. SK Hynix rebounded continuously after retesting the 1.42 million won area, closing up 5.9% at 1,593,000 won. The KOSPI has risen 20% from the July low, entering a technical bull market, but foreign capital has not shifted to long-term holdings, and the drag from leveraged ETFs remains. Garrett Jin set the first profit-taking level at $1,150 (approximately 1.63 million won), with the next target at $1,300 (1.85 million won).Garrett Jin also noted that gold recorded its strongest weekly gain since January this week at +7.8%, priced at $4,388. The driving factors were a decrease of 23,000 in July non-farm payrolls and a moderate CPI that dampened September rate hike expectations. However, it is currently overbought in the short term, and a pullback could present an opportunity for incremental accumulation. Bitcoin has shown no response to the same macro-positive factors, remaining trapped between the support at $62,500 and resistance at $65,000-$70,000, with the bottom structure since $57,700 gradually being built. Garrett Jin will wait for the next buying opportunity after a pullback.Regarding SpaceX, Garrett Jin believes the recent performance is a classic case of "bad news fully priced in + short squeeze," with the unlocking itself becoming a washout rather than the starting point of a decline. However, the unlocking window has not yet ended, with an additional 319 million shares to be unlocked, approximately 700 million shares each in September and October. The current range up to $160 is a profit-taking zone rather than a high-entry zone.

According to Decrypt, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) plans to launch two crypto-related initiatives in the coming days, while the Congressional CLARITY Act remains stalled until at least September. The SEC intends to propose "Regulation Crypto" at a public meeting on Friday, allowing projects to raise funds through token sales without completing a full securities registration.The SEC also plans to introduce an "innovation exemption" for tokenized stocks, with details potentially announced on Friday. This exemption will allow tokenized versions of stocks like Apple, Tesla, and Nvidia to be traded on the blockchain around the clock, supporting fragmented trading and near-instant settlement.Such tokens typically track stock economic exposure but do not carry voting rights or dividend rights. This initiative is part of SEC Chairman Paul Atkins' "Project Crypto" agenda, with Robinhood Chain, Solana, and Base already advancing related on-chain markets.
