⚖️ 🇺🇸 Bitnomial Exchange Sues SEC for Regulatory Abuse, for Allegedly Expanding Its Jurisdiction Over Digital Assets.

The case involves an XRP futures contract that is already regulated by the CFTC.

The AI x Crypto narrative is on a tear and
bittensor_
's $TAO token is leading the way 🚀

Here's why 👇

======================

As one of the most prominent projects in this space, Bittensor is positioning itself as the project to watch.

At its core, Bittensor is pushing a new frontier: creating a decentralized network where AI models can be trained and shared in a way that aligns incentives for both developers and users.

As the subnet limit is progressively expanded — and eventually removed altogether — the potential for exponential growth within the Bittensor ecosystem becomes clear. More subnets mean more AI models, more collaboration, and more growth for the ecosystem.

Crucially, all this activity increases demand for TAO itself. Since TAO is required to acquire any subnet token, the introduction of dTAO could further fuel its demand, making Bittensor even more attractive to investors.

TAO’s Halving in 2025
Bittensor is approaching its first halving event, slated for late 2025. Much like Bitcoin’s halving cycles, this event will cut the rate at which new TAO tokens are emitted by half.

Currently, the Bittensor network emits 1 TAO as block rewards (7,200 TAO daily) which are distributed among miners, validators, subnet owners, and delegators. However, when the halving occurs (triggered when 10.5 million TAO are in circulation), this emission will be halved to 0.5 TAO per block, reducing the daily supply of new TAO entering the market.

Why does this matter? When the supply of TAO is cut, it introduces scarcity. In any market, reduced supply with steady or rising demand (thanks to increasing subnets and introduction of dTAO) can only lead in one direction: upward.

Now let’s take a look at the macro level things happening in the world of AI that are considered positive for AI x crypto projects like Bittensor.

Issues with OpenAI
OpenAI is at a crossroads. Recently, news broke that OpenAI is transitioning from a non-profit control to a for-profit benefit corporation. Following this restructuring, the company’s valuation has soared to over $150 billion and they’ve raised $6 .6 billion in fresh funding.

Additionally, there’s been recent departures of key executives, including Chief Technology Officer Mira Murati and two other senior executives, raising concerns about potential internal issues.

Nonetheless, there is a broad regulatory squeeze on AI from various jurisdictions worldwide. The fact that centralized AI is subject to regulatory control highlights a fundamental flaw: it's too easy to control.

When a few large companies hold the keys to centralized AI, they become prime targets for government pressure and censorship. This is where decentralized AI platforms, like Bittensor, have the advantage. They cannot be shut down or censored by any single entity, as no one entity controls it.

Closing Thoughts
There’s a lot going right for Bittensor, and the rising token price is just the cherry on top. With existing momentum, the upcoming updates mentioned above, potential EVM support, and ongoing community development – such as the rapid integration of NousResearch’s breakthrough in distributed training into Bittensor – these are all strong indicators of Bittensor’s promise.

In a world where centralized AI is increasingly regulated, censored, and driven by profit motives, Bittensor offers a compelling alternative: a decentralized, community-driven approach that thrives on collaboration, innovation, and shared incentives. And that’s why it’s worth keeping an eye on.

What are some of your conviction holds? 💰

10 years ago, on October 6, 2014, the first stablecoin was launched.
Called Realcoin, the first tokens were issued on the Omni overlay of the Bitcoin network.

Now called #Tether (USDT), over 120 billion tokens are in circulation and the company generated more profits than BlackRock in 2023!

Tether generates its yield from U.S. Treasuries, which the company holds more of than some countries, such as Germany.

🇪🇺 Coinbase announces plans to delist all unauthorized stablecoins from its platform in the European Economic Area (EEA) by the end of December 2024.

Coinbase will provide an update on its plans next month, including users converting their stablecoins to EU-compliant versions such as USDC.

Currently, only USDC and EURC have achieved MiCA compliance, so there is a potential delisting of USDT by the end of 2024.

Indeed, Tether has not yet received authorization to issue $120 billion in USDT in Europe.

🪶 Robinhood launches crypto transfers in Europe.

Customers can now deposit and withdraw over 20 cryptocurrencies, including BTC, ETH, SOL, and USDC.

“With the launch of crypto transfers in Europe, we are making self-custody and entry into DeFi simpler and more accessible for our customers”
says Johann Kerbrat, VP and GM of Robinhood Crypto

🇰🇷 Bithumb, one of South Korea's leading exchanges, is exploring the possibility of an IPO on the US Nasdaq.

The company said the target would be the end of 2025 and would hire Samsung Securities to lead the IPO.

🇺🇸 Tether announced today that it has helped the U.S. Department of Justice seize more than $6 million in assets linked to an Asia-based scam.

To date, Tether has assisted over 180 authorities in 45 jurisdictions, and has blocked over $1 .8 billion, redistributing over $128 million to its rightful owners.

“Tether is unwavering in its commitment to helping law enforcement agencies around the world put an end to the misuse of cryptocurrency.”

“We stand ready to work with government agencies and provide all the tools necessary to ensure that global bad actors are brought to justice and ultimately, victims are supported.”

Bitget Wallet launches OmniConnect, a new SDK linking Telegram Mini-Apps to over 500 blockchains, including Solana, enabling Solana builders to launch mini-games directly on Telegram.

PayPal, one of the world’s largest financial platforms, continues its mission to deliver blockchain-based services to users and businesses alike.

On September 25, 2024, PayPal announced it would be enabling U.S. merchants to buy, hold, and sell cryptocurrency assets within their business accounts. The move is the latest in a slew of updates made by PayPal as the TradFi giant continues to embrace the cryptocurrency industry.

U.S. Businesses Can Now Store Funds Onchain
Following the successful launch of crypto services for individual users, PayPal remarked that businesses were eager to meet user’s growing demand for more comprehensive crypto services.

"Since we launched the ability for PayPal and Venmo consumers to buy, sell, and hold cryptocurrency in their wallets, we have learned a lot about how they want to use their cryptocurrency… Business owners have increasingly expressed a desire for the same cryptocurrency capabilities available to consumers. We're excited to meet that demand by delivering this new offering, empowering them to engage with digital currencies effortlessly." - Jose Fernandez da Ponte, Senior Vice President of Blockchain, Cryptocurrency, and Digital Currencies, PayPal.

PayPal’s commitment to providing merchants with expanded crypto services and flexibility goes beyond buying and selling digital assets. Merchants can now withdraw cryptocurrencies to external onchain wallets.

While PayPal has stipulated that this feature will be limited to “eligible” wallets, the move also opens the door to more businesses becoming involved in DeFi. For example, businesses holding capital might be able to lend out assets in various onchain lending protocols, earning additional yield on a merchant’s treasury.

$PYUSD Solana Supply Down 40% Since ATH
Since launching on Solana on May 29, 2024, $PYUSD enjoyed meteoric growth. Spurred on by generous liquidity provision incentives, $PYUSD’s Solana-based supply surged to over 663.4M tokens based on Step Finance data. This eclipsed Ethereum’s $PYUSD supply, making Solana the unofficial home of PayPal’s crypto services.

However, as $PYUSD reward campaigns have slowed and market conditions improved, the supply of PayPal USD on Solana has declined. At its highest point on August 28, 2024, Solana hosted $PYUSD 65.79% supply dominance.

Based on DeFiLlama data, that figure has since fallen to just 50.4%, with PayPal USD’s Solana-based supply currently sitting at 354M.

It's unlikely that PayPal merchants based in the U.S. will rush to bring their stablecoin holdings onchain and deploy them in Solana DeFi protocols. However, the move highlights PayPal’s willingness to respond positively to customer feedback and integrate blockchain technology into its expansive product suite.

It’s here — a crypto game for mass audiences.

's new mobile shooter -- FTW 🔫👇

========================================
jungle_xyz’s FTW is a fast-paced mobile shooter where players can play casually or win real rewards by competing in tournaments and PVP wagering matches.

While FTW has multiple ways to play—Free-for-Alls, Team Deathmatches, and Extractions (akin to capture the flag)—its main mode is Showdown, where 10 players face off in a 3-minute Battle Royale. Here, players spawn with randomized load-outs of different heroes, weapons, and gadgets and can respawn during the first 2 minutes, battling to rack up points and buffs.

After this, the playing zone starts closing and respawns are disabled until the last player standing claims victory. Along the way, players can pick up new weapons and equipment scattered across the map. These come in four rarity levels: White, Blue, Purple, and Yellow, each offering increased power for an edge as the match progresses.
⚔️ Qualifiers (Mon-Fri): During weekdays, you can play Showdown matches for free and collect points to prepare for the weekend Finals. This mode helps you accumulate upgrades, currencies, and tickets, which will be crucial for weekend competition.

🎖Finals (Sat-Sun): The weekend Finals require one ticket per match, and only these games count toward the leaderboard for prizes. Players can win $USDC , $SOL , in-game rewards, and whitelist spots for Jungle’s Genesis mint — though you must connect your wallet and Discord to be eliglible.

Additionally, there is a Monthly Leaderboard on FTW’s Jungle Discord, where your Finals scores accumulate throughout the month. Players who perform well can qualify for boosted rewards.

How to Get Started:

Additional Features:

🎯 Auto-Aim: FTW lets you choose between manual and auto-aim in its settings. While it may burn through your bullets, personally I’d recommend auto.

💥 Hero Ultimates: Each hero has a unique ultimate ability like airstrikes, poison gas, or shock blasts, which charges up as the match goes on and you rack up more stats.

🧰 Hero and Weapon Upgrades: XP will be earned as you play, alongside crates offering unique boosts which can be used to upgrade your heroes and weapons, increasing traits like their resilience, precision, and speed.

How to Earn:

FTW’s tournaments are where the money’s made, and these events are split into Qualifiers and Finals:

📲 Download FTW: The game is available on the iOS App Store and Google Play in early access worldwide.

✅ Sign Up: Once downloaded, create your account through your email or Google.

🔗 Link Your Account: To qualify for rewards, join the Jungle Discord and complete your profile under the profile channel by linking your FTW account (a code will be provided in the app) and Solana wallet.

🏆 Join Tournaments: Participate in weekly Qualifiers to earn points, and use tickets to join the weekend Finals for a shot at the prizes.

And that's all it takes to get started here!

With mobile games feeling ripe for crypto adoption by augmenting their casual gameplay with onchain rewards, Jungle looks to be flying under the radar as a studio to watch.

Move quickly, though! The last Qualifiers for this first “Play-to-Mint” tournament end on September 27th, though we can expect more down the line.

The bulls are in charge as markets pump 🐂📈

But can J Pow really stick that Goldilocks landing to secure that full-on bull market?

What you should know 👇

========================================

Bulls appear to be firmly in control as the market prices in the “Goldilocks” landing scenario following Wednesday's major rate cut announcement.

What’s the Scoop?

✂️ Fed Cuts: Wednesday, America’s Federal Reserve announced a 50 bps (0.5%) decrease to its benchmark short-term policy rate in the central bank’s first instance of monetary easing during the post-Covid era.

📊 Volatile Regime: While markets initially rallied on confirmation of the telegraphed Fed cuts, they gave back the gains headed into the U.S. close and finished out that first day red. Although the bullish impulse from Fed cuts didn’t transpire until after the close, the broad market S&P 500 opened 1.5% higher today, the index’s strongest overnight gain since 2022 and its largest gap up opening to new all-time highs in at least 35 years.

🌼 Achieving Goldilocks: High interest rates were tough on the economy, but they were seen as necessary to control the big inflation that hit in 2022. Now that inflation has slowed down a lot in recent months, the Fed can start easing up on its monetary policies. Despite some softening in the labor market, numbers aren't pointing to imminent disaster, and global central bankers remain supremely confident they can keep unemployment from rising too much without causing more inflation through carefully calculated interest rate cuts.

📢 Bankless Take: The best mix of conditions seems to be coming together, boosting economic optimism and giving the green light for bulls to push markets to new all-time highs. While investors will see tanking inflation data as bullish and shrug off deteriorating labor conditions in the weeks ahead thanks to renewed confidence in the Fed Put, an unexpected turn for the worse will swiftly give way to serious recession concerns.

SOLANA BREAKPOINT: The Biggest Announcements From Day One
Hopes were high for some big announcements, but even the most devout Solana maxi wasn’t ready for this.

Over 5,700 Solana fans, users, and bulls descended on day one of Singapore Breakpoint. The biggest conference event in Solana history, Breakpoint delivered a wrath of key updates, with crucial developments announced from both native teams and institutional players.

If you weren’t at Breakpoint, here’s what you need to know:

FIREDANCER LIVE ON TESTNET
Solana users and investors alike were delighted to see Kevin Bowers, Jump Crypto’s Chief Science Officer take the stage to deliver one of the network’s most eagerly awaited updates.

Firedancer, the novel validator client promising to bring unparalleled levels of scalability, decentralization, and security to Solana, is now live on testnet.

But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Bowers also took the opportunity to outline the development history of the client and its evolution from Frankendancer, an experimental synergy of existing software with Jump’s new codebase, to the optimized final Firedancer product.

To rounds of raucous applause from the Solana faithful, Bowers announced that the existing Frankendancer client is now live on the Solana mainnet.

FRANKLIN TEMPLETON BUILDING ON SOLANA
While existing SOL ETF applications find themselves unlikely to be approved in the short term, that doesn’t mean that TradFi giants aren’t eager to launch Solana-based products to their institutional clients.

Franklin Templeton, one of the world’s largest financial players boasting over $1 .3T in AUM (Assets Under Management) announced its intention to launch a mutual fund on the Solana blockchain.

CITIBANK EXPLORING SOLANA
Franklin Templeton, 21Shares, and VanEck aren’t the only Wall Street players with an eye on crypto’s most performant Layer-1.

Citibank, the fourth largest bank in the United States, shared that it was exploring Solana’s potential, suggesting that seamless money transfers and advanced smart contract composability present unique opportunities in the future.

JUPITER MAKES BIG MOVES
Traditional Finance may have dominated the headlines, but Solana-native DeFi teams also commanded their fair share of the spotlight.

Jupiter co-founder Siong presented an immense range of updates coming to Jupiter’s expansive ecosystem. Crucial announcements included a refreshed v2 perps platform, the reveal of the Ape Pro memecoin trading platform, further details surrounding the Jupiter mobile wallet, and Jupiter’s acquisition of the SolanaFM explorer.

SKY, FORMERLY MakerDAO, DEPLOYS ON SOLANA
MakerDAO, one of the crypto industry’s longest standing DeFi protocols, recently rebranded to SKY, migrating its iconic decentralized stablecoin from $DAI to $USDS . Building on top of the momentum achieved with the rebrand, SKY announced a proposal to leverage Wormhole’s cross-chain infrastructure to bridge $USDS to Solana.

Reinforcing SKY’s desire to be present on the Solana network, the protocol announced an rewards campaign to incentivise deeper liquidity on the network. According to SKY governance, the maximum distribution of weekly rewards is capped at 2M $SKY .

The move helps to bring greater stability to Solana DeFi by providing a more diversified range of stablecoin assets onchain.

Continuing the trend of Solana migration, the Huma Finance PayFi network also announced its intention to launch on the network.
