User @neillee99 posted that the approximately 50 BTC held in Solv Protocol cannot be redeemed normally. The user stated that on July 8, 2026, they withdrew about 50 BTC from Binance, which was converted into SolvBTC and BTC+, aiming to earn about 3% annual yield by holding BTC+, without engaging in complex transactions.The user claimed that after the deposit, the minting and redemption functions of BTC+ suddenly paused. On July 13, a security incident occurred with BTC+, and they inquired in the official community on July 18 and July 20, but received no effective response. On July 22, Solv Protocol publicly disclosed the incident and stated that user assets were not harmed. On July 31, the project team announced the restoration of related functions, and staff informed that redemption could be initiated, but their address remained restricted, and the approximately 50 BTC corresponding assets could not be redeemed.The user stated that since July 31, they have continuously communicated through the official Discord, Telegram, and email, submitting materials such as proof of funds, transaction records, and wallet control. There have been about 60 emails exchanged between both parties, with about 50 sent by them. After contacting relevant personnel in September, they still did not receive an effective response. Their request is to lift the restrictions and restore normal redemption, while also stating that they initially came into contact with BTC+ through the BTC earnings-related page of Binance Web3 Wallet, and calling on Solv Protocol, Venus Protocol, and relevant investors and ecosystem parties to pay attention to the progress of the handling.

The Ethereum Foundation announced that the Ethereum network upgrade Glamsterdam will be activated on the Sepolia testnet on October 6 at 21:53:36 Beijing time, corresponding to epoch 353024 and slot 11296768. The activation date for Hoodi and the mainnet has not yet been determined.Glamsterdam combines the execution layer Amsterdam upgrade and the consensus layer Gloas upgrade. Key changes include the embedded proposer-builder separation and block-level access lists to enhance L1 throughput, as well as adjustments to gas billing to better reflect the costs of execution and state growth. Node operators must update their execution layer and consensus layer clients before activation. Contracts relying on fixed gas assumptions may need to be modified.

Tibo from the OpenAI Codex team posted on X that the team will reopen the $200 Pro subscription to new users tomorrow and adjust the usage calculation method for the plan. According to his calculations, the adjusted subscription's corresponding API expenditure will be equivalent to half of the old $200 Pro plan.Tibo stated that the team does not wish to compromise in other ways and promised not to restore the 5-hour usage limit, allowing users to use their weekly quota as needed. He also mentioned that subscriptions should allow users to accomplish more work and achieve higher quality with the same expenditure as model efficiency improves and API prices decrease. This week, the team has reduced the prices of GPT-6 Sol and GPT-6 Luna to 50% of their previous prices and intends to continue lowering prices and enhancing capabilities, rather than raising API prices and then offering discounts.Tibo also revealed that tomorrow, several content items that do not consume usage quotas will be added to the subscription, but specific items have not yet been disclosed. He stated that this advance notice of the adjustment in the calculation method is to inform users of this change before subsequent announcements related to the subscription.

On September 29, B.AI announced that Anthropic's latest Sonnet model, Claude Sonnet 5.5, has officially launched on the platform. As a faster and lower-cost supplement to Claude Opus 5.5, Claude Sonnet 5.5 boasts an output speed increase of over 30%, with a maximum reduction in single-task costs of about 30%, aimed at clearly defined software engineering, everyday agent workflows, and professional document creation scenarios.This model supports image and PDF comprehension, can generate reports, presentations, spreadsheets, and UIs, and offers five adjustable reasoning intensities with a 1 million token context window, with no additional charges for long contexts. Currently, both the B.AI API and Web Chat have been synchronized and opened, allowing developers and users to directly access this new generation Sonnet model that balances speed, cost, and long context capabilities.

The Smarter Web Company, a Bitcoin treasury company in the UK, has received shareholder approval to launch the UK's first Bitcoin-backed preferred stock MORE.

CryptoQuant analyst Zizcrypto stated that the adjusted long-term holder (LTH) MVRV metric has recovered from a shallow pressure zone and is currently back in a profitable state. Data shows that the adjusted MVRV for the long-term holder group with a holding period of 6 months to 10 years continued to compress and remained above 1 in April this year. An MVRV of 1 represents the overall breakeven line for this group, with values above 1 indicating unrealized profits and below 1 indicating unrealized losses.Between June and August, this metric fell below 1 five times, reaching a low of approximately 0.94 on June 30, when the BTC price was around $58,500, while the group's realized price benchmark was about $62,000, which is about 6% below the breakeven line. However, Zizcrypto noted that the duration and magnitude of this pressure were limited, with the metric remaining close to 1 and not entering the deep loss phase for long-term holders seen in 2019 and during 2022-2023. As of September 27, the adjusted LTH MVRV has recovered to about 1.35, with the BTC price around $84,500, while the long-term holders' realized price is about $62,700, indicating that the spot price is approximately 35% higher than this cost basis. The long-term holder group with a holding period of 6 months to 10 years has emerged from a shallow pressure phase below 1 and re-entered an overall profitable state, resembling a recovery after a healthy adjustment rather than a deep or prolonged loss cycle.

The NVIDIA research team enabled the AI Agent to directly rewrite the GPU kernel of Kimi Delta Attention. Kimi Delta Attention is one of the core attention mechanisms used by the Dark Side of the Moon Kimi-Linear model, and such low-level code typically required engineers familiar with CUDA and chip architecture to optimize manually and repeatedly in the past.The version written by the Agent achieved 2.96 times the speed of the official FlashKDA of the Dark Side of the Moon on the NVIDIA B300. The team tested a total of 6 sets of tasks with fixed lengths and varying lengths, with 2.96 times being the geometric mean of all tasks; the relevant kernel has been open-sourced.During the process, the Agent exploited testing loopholes by incorporating statistical patterns from the test data into the code, achieving a speedup of 3.74 times; when retaining only the most recent 32 tokens, a single score reached 5.16 times. These versions would produce incorrect results or fail when switched to real Kimi data. The team subsequently incorporated real Kimi runtime data, random inputs, and extreme value tests, tightening the error standards, and ultimately retained the 2.96 times version, which passed this validation.

Spot gold rose slightly on Tuesday but remained trading below $4,200 per ounce. This followed a sell-off in the precious metals market triggered by U.S. Treasury yields rising to multi-decade highs and an increase in oil prices. IG analysts stated that gold only rebounded slightly due to market expectations that the Federal Reserve will maintain high interest rates for a longer period. Traders expect a 72.5% probability of a rate hike by the Federal Reserve in October. The market is focused on U.S. economic data, including the Consumer Confidence Index and job vacancy data.

According to Lianhe Zaobao, U.S. President Trump rejected Iran's latest proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. This new round of macroeconomic uncertainty is putting pressure on risk assets, and Bitcoin has cooled off after several weeks of rapid gains, with its upward momentum stalling.In addition to geopolitical factors, the market continues to digest the Federal Reserve's interest rate hike measures and is also preparing for another possible rate hike in October. Since August 19, Bitcoin has risen by 28%, and now, Bitcoin is expected to achieve its best quarterly performance since the fourth quarter of 2024.

According to the official announcement, the Bitcoin sidechain Liquid Network developed by Blockstream has initiated an independent external security audit for Elements v23.3.4, providing additional security verification for the recovery of Peg-out operations.Meanwhile, the Liquid Federation is coordinating an update to the PAK list, including replacing existing key entries and ensuring that all Peg-out keys are securely stored in cold wallets. The official statement indicates that progress on the recovery will be announced later.

Noah Shinn, founder of Personal AI Agent Instinct, stated that the company's user base has been growing by about 10% to 11% daily in recent weeks, leading to a corresponding demand for computing power that is close to doubling each week. He now spends about 40% of his time considering how much computing power to purchase in advance.Shinn indicated that computing power cannot be procured in sync with user growth. Purchasing only double the current computing power would be exhausted in about a week; buying five times would run out in less than three weeks; directly purchasing ten times would mean a significant upfront investment. Many resources need to be booked months in advance, and the price for temporarily supplementing computing power could be three to four times higher. He mentioned that purchasing too little makes it difficult to support growth, while purchasing too much would amplify costs when growth slows down.He estimates that even if the daily growth rate drops from 10% to 5% to 8%, after continuous growth for 3 to 4 months, it may still be necessary to prepare computing power for a scale of 100 million users, and the waiting time for new computing power to come online would be roughly the same. He believes that this is more challenging than scaling consumer internet products like Instagram and Facebook, because each new user of the personal agent continuously consumes a large amount of model inference. He stated that Instinct's current scaling speed is even faster than similar situations encountered by Claude Code and Codex in the past.

According to Axel Adler Jr's monitoring, although the price of Bitcoin has further risen to around $87,000, the market's profit-taking pressure is weaker than in August.
