CLARITY Act: How It Rewrites The Rules for US Crypto
We put it in one card: what crypto looks like now vs. what changes if it passes. 6 simple points — who regulates crypto, how tokens launch, DeFi, fundraising, exchanges, and custody.
The big shifts:
• Tokens can move from SEC to CFTC as they decentralize
• Developers and validators stop being treated as targets
• The old custody penalty (SAB 121) is gone
Arc Layer 1 Ecosystem: DEXs and Payments
Circle's Arc goes live September 16. USDC-native L1 where gas is paid in stablecoins, backed by $222M from a16z, BlackRock and Apollo.
So we mapped both sides. Every DEX building on Arc, from native venues like Tower, Synthra and Hibachi to the majors bringing liquidity in Uniswap, Aerodrome, Curve and Fluid. Plus the payments layer already moving real volume: Blockradar, Myaza and Avenia on the native side, Rain, Thunes, Wirex and Yellow Card on the major one. 20 teams, one chain, all before mainnet.

Developers Launch First POOL4 Liquidity Pool For FWA
Adam Rhynotic and Adam surfcoderepeat introduced the first external POOL4 liquidity pool for FWA, built on Uniswap v4 and designed to create additional liquidity and holder incentives through a custom CappedBurnHook.
The hook burns excess FWA tokens during large sell transactions, with the retained ETH used to build a buy wall and fund stakers. Since launch, more than 62,000 FWA tokens have been burned, while the concentrated-liquidity pool has recorded active swaps.
The initiative has received support from community members highlighting the collaborative approach and potential benefits for holders, while others remain cautious due to the pool's limited initial liquidity and unproven mechanics.

Uniswap Launches StablePair Hook For Stablecoin Liquidity
Uniswap Labs launched StablePair Hook, a new Uniswap v4 tool designed to help liquidity providers capture more value from stablecoin trading pairs such as USDC/USDT and USDC/USDG. The hook uses dynamic fees that adjust based on how far a pool’s price moves from its reference price.
ℹ️ Stablecoin-to-stablecoin swaps on Uniswap reached $43.4B in Q2, exceeding the combined volume of the next three onchain venues, according to Uniswap Labs
When prices remain close to the reference level, StablePair Hook adjusts fees to maintain a fixed spread. If the price moves away from the reference range, trades pushing the price further away pay no fee, while trades restoring parity use a Dutch auction mechanism with fees that decline block by block.

The Boring Company Raises $3B at a $23B Valuation
The Boring Company raised $3 billion in a Series D round at a $23 billion valuation, led by the United Arab Emirates, as Elon Musk's tunneling venture pushes to dig mass underground infrastructure across the Gulf.
The UAE and affiliated investment entities anchored the round, joined by Sequoia, a16z, Temasek, Vy Capital, Valor Equity Partners, Baron Capital, Human Capital and Shamal Holding. The capital funds more than 150 kilometers of tunnel across the Emirates, accelerates the Dubai Loop, and expands the Las Vegas Loop plus a new Music City Loop in Nashville. The Dubai Loop begins with a 6.4-kilometer pilot of four stations, with construction starting late 2026.

Nasdaq Invests $100M in Kraken's Parent at $21B
Nasdaq's venture arm is investing $100 million in Payward, the parent of crypto exchange Kraken, in a deal that values the company at $21 billion and expands a tokenization partnership the two struck in March.
The capital deepens a plan to build an equities transformation gateway powered by Kraken's xStocks, letting tokenized shares move between Nasdaq's regulated, permissioned markets and permissionless public blockchains in eligible jurisdictions. Under the arrangement, Kraken serves as the primary settlement layer for Nasdaq's planned equity tokens and as the distribution partner outside the US, while Payward Services handles KYC and AML onboarding. Nasdaq expects the equity-token design to go live in the first half of 2027, pending regulatory sign-off.

a16z Launches a Post-Quantum Jolt zkVM
a16z crypto released Lattice Jolt, a new version of its open-source Jolt zkVM that rebuilds the cryptography on lattices instead of elliptic curves, making it post-quantum without slowing down.
The switch replaces Jolt's old Dory commitment scheme with Akita, a lattice-based scheme built on Module-SIS, the same assumption family behind NIST's ML-DSA and ML-KEM standards, developed with LayerZero, Carnegie Mellon and USC, targeting a full 128 bits of security. Because lattices reach comparable security over 128-bit fields instead of 256-bit ones, the prover and verifier run 2 to 3 times faster: over 2 million RISC-V cycles per second on a laptop CPU, and more than 10 million on a MacBook GPU via Apple Metal. Its proofs are the shortest of any post-quantum zkVM, under 100 KB, which makes onchain verification cheaper.

Renzo Steps Beyond Restaking Into Basis Trades
Renzo launched Renzo Basis on Hyperliquid, its first product beyond liquid restaking, an onchain basis trade that earns yield from funding rates instead of betting on price direction.
Renzo Basis runs delta-neutral strategies, automatically pairing spot and perpetual positions so directional risk cancels out and the position collects funding-rate payments as carry. It opens with BTC and HYPE and executes on Hyperliquid, the onchain perpetual exchange that has quietly become one of the highest-volume venues in crypto. Renzo, now rebranding to Renzo Finance, frames it as closing the gap on structured products, a multitrillion-dollar category in traditional finance that stays niche onchain because the strategies are hard to set up, monitor and manage by hand.

Pons Drives Robinhood Chain Fees to Record $6M Daily
Robinhood Chain generated a record $6M in daily fees on September 4, while weekly DEX volume reached $12.4B, more than double the previous week's total.
Chain fees totaled approximately $25M over the seven days through September 4, up from just $1.4M the previous week. Despite average daily active accounts falling to 396K, fees per active account surged from $0.13 in mid-August to $15.90 in early September.

Plume Opens Factor, a Tokenized Credit Vault
Plume opened its Factor credit vault, a capacity-limited pool on Plume Vaults that gives stablecoin depositors exposure to a curated book of invoice factoring and working-capital loans.
Built with Tradeable and New York credit fund Deep Ocean Partners, Factor is an actively managed book rather than a single wrapped fund: depositors get a FACTOR receipt token and hold exposure to short-dated, self-liquidating, asset-backed facilities like invoice factoring, receivables revolvers and floorplan lines. The targeted 14%+ net APY comes from capital efficiency, cycling each dollar four to twelve times a year against investment-grade obligors, not from reaching for riskier credit. Weekly liquidity is engineered from a liquid treasury sleeve, contractual collateral runoff, and a contractual buyback from the lender of record.

Hunter Biden's $LAPTOP Craters ~99% at Launch
Hunter Biden's $LAPTOP went live on Base this morning and collapsed roughly 99% within the first hour of trading, as the launch spike unwound almost as fast as it formed.
The memecoin, named after the laptop at the center of years of political controversy, went live at 8:00 AM ET with a one billion supply. Founders including Biden hold 30%, locked for six months; 20% is airdropped to wallets that lost money on TRUMP, his Substack subscribers and journalist Andrew Callaghan's mailing list; and another 30% is tied to real-world prediction outcomes, with tokens burned if events hit and otherwise eventually donated to charity. Despite launching on Base, neither Base nor Coinbase endorsed the project, with Base lead Jesse Pollak stressing the network is permissionless, while Kraken drew criticism for promoting the token.

Pump.fun Launches Holder Rewards, Ends Cashback
Pump.fun launched Holder Rewards, a new token type that streams trading fees straight to holders, and retired Cashback Mode for every new launch on the platform.
Holder Rewards tokens route trading fees into a dedicated distribution wallet that pays out several times an hour, with bigger and longer-held positions earning more; any wallet above $20 qualifies. At launch there is no hybrid: creators pick either a standard Creator Fee token, where fees go to the team, or a Holder Rewards token, where fees flow back to holders. Existing Cashback and Creator Fee tokens can convert to Holder Rewards if they meet Pump.fun's criteria, but the switch is permanent.

Revolut Exposed User Data After Fake Government Request
Revolut exposed the personal data of a subset of users after failing to flag a fraudulent government data request, on-chain investigator ZachXBT reported.
The exposed records reportedly include copies of passports or driver's licenses and their verification selfies, account statements, IBANs, withdrawal records and full transaction histories, including Bitcoin, alongside names, dates of birth, occupations, home addresses, emails and phone numbers.
The request is said to have come from an email account spoofing a government agency's official domain, complete with valid domain authentication, which appears to have let it slip past Revolut's checks before the customer information was shared.

Bitwise Shuts Its Dogecoin ETF After Only 10 Months
Bitwise is liquidating its spot Dogecoin ETF, BWOW, roughly ten months after the fund began trading on NYSE Arca in Nov 2025.
Interest never showed up. BWOW did about $3M of volume on its debut and faded from there, with assets slipping under $1 million and NAV per share dropping from $19.21 at the end of 2025 to $11.84 by mid-year, a 38% loss in the first half of 2026.
The last trading day is set for October 14, and remaining holders will receive the fund's net asset value in cash around October 22.

Coinbase Reverts Base App to Coinbase Wallet
Coinbase is renaming Base App back to Coinbase Wallet, roughly a year after it rebranded the wallet as an all-in-one social, payments and trading everything app.
The July 2025 relaunch folded a Farcaster-powered social feed, mini-apps, chat, USDC payments and onchain trading into one Base-powered super-app. The social layer never landed: Coinbase pulled the Farcaster feed in February to refocus on trading, wound down its Base Creator Rewards program after paying out over $450K to about 17,000 creators, and Base lead Jesse Pollak stepped back from app leadership, calling the social bet "wrong." CEO Brian Armstrong later said the SocialFi features "didn't quite work."

Uniswap V4 Hooks: 4 Ways to Actually Earn
Uniswap V4 hooks turned liquidity pools into programmable money. A hook is a small add-on that plugs into a pool and rewrites the rules — fees, MEV, extra yield.
We mapped where the money actually flows. 4 ways to earn:
1️⃣ Launch and Earn: take a fee on every swap of your token
2️⃣ LP & Keep the MEV: arbitrage profit goes back to LPs, not searchers
3️⃣ Idle LP → Yield: your liquidity also lends and compounds
4️⃣ Run the Pool: win the manager slot, take the whole fee + MEV
Real Finance's $ASSET Joins ESMA's Interim MiCA Register
Real Technologies published a MiCA whitepaper for $ASSET, the token from tokenized-assets platform Real Finance, and it now appears in ESMA's Interim MiCA Register across all 30 EEA markets.
The whitepaper gives $ASSET a single, standardised MiCA disclosure for the whole European Economic Area, a formal reference that exchanges, institutions and other market participants can use to evaluate the token and support its admission to trading.

Jack Dorsey’s Block Applies for Federal Bank Charter
Block has applied to the OCC to establish Builders Bank & Trust, an uninsured national trust bank focused on custody and fiduciary services for Bitcoin and stablecoins.
If approved, the bank would provide a federally regulated framework for certain digital asset custody activities already offered by Block. It would not accept deposits or make loans, with Block’s digital asset strategy lead Lee Woolley set to serve as CEO.

Soul Protocol One-Pager. Omnichain Liquidity Layer for Lending
One lending position, every chain. Soul pools Aave, Compound, Morpho and Venus into a single market, so you borrow and lend across five networks without bridging.
Cross-chain actions settle through LayerZero, while staking SO boosts your yield on top. It's a single liquidity layer that makes multi-chain lending feel like one chain.
Pump fun Debuts Custom Pairs With Stocks & Metals
Pump.fun introduced Custom Pairs, letting token creators launch coins paired with tokenized stocks, crypto majors and metals on Solana, not just SOL or USDC.
The feature brings 20 brand-new asset pairs to Solana through a partnership with Sunrise, spanning tokenized equities like BA, BABA, COST, DELL, DJT, HIMS, IBM, JNJ, LMT, LULU, MGM and PFE, alongside crypto majors and metals. Pump.fun pitches more variety, deeper liquidity and lower fees than rival launchpads. Pairing a token to a tokenized stock only mirrors that asset's price, though: holders get no claim on the real shares, no dividends and no voting rights.

Bybit Debuts Bybit AI, a Chat Trading Tool
Bybit launched Bybit AI, a conversational assistant built into its app that lets users trade and manage their accounts with plain natural-language commands instead of tapping through menus.
Through chat, users can query their assets and place spot, derivatives and options orders, and reach Earn, copy trading, lending, P2P and customer-support tickets without leaving the conversation. Enabling Bybit AI automatically creates a separate sub-account whose assets are physically segregated from the user's main account, ringfencing whatever the assistant is able to touch. The design keeps the assistant's activity walled off from a user's core balance while it acts on their instructions.
