Odaily reports: US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chair Paul Atkins stated that the SEC will continue advancing regulation of cryptocurrencies and digital securities, and will introduce more rules to ensure the digital asset market stays in the United States.On October 2, Paul Atkins said the SEC's proposed crypto asset custody regulatory framework aims to update rules established in 1940 that only apply to traditional asset custody and safekeeping. The move comes after the US Senate failed to pass the CLARITY Act last month.He noted that the framework is part of the SEC's efforts to build a comprehensive crypto asset regulatory system starting in 2025, following earlier proposals including Regulation Crypto Assets and the Innovation Exemption, the latter of which would establish a 5-year sandbox allowing US equities to be traded on decentralized exchanges and with liquidity providers.John Reed Stark, former head of the SEC's Office of Internet Enforcement, believes the regulatory push exceeds the SEC's authority and bypasses congressional power. Paul Atkins stated that more regulatory proposals are coming and that he will continue to assist President Trump in promoting the US as the global capital of cryptocurrency. (Bitcoin.com News)

Odaily reports: Greenfield Capital, an early investor in Safe, has published an open letter stating that it has filed a regulatory complaint with the Swiss Federal Foundation Supervisory Authority (ESA) regarding the Safe Ecosystem Foundation. Greenfield Capital stated that it has never sold any SAFE tokens since investing in Safe in 2022, but the total assets held in Safe accounts have declined from approximately $6.6 billion at the beginning of 2024 to about $3 billion. Over the same period, total DeFi TVL grew by roughly 40% and stablecoin supply increased by 135%, while stablecoins within Safe grew by only 11%. The firm believes that Safe's share of the self-custody market is declining.Greenfield Capital stated that about a year ago, it was unable to form a reliable judgment based solely on information provided by the Safe team, so it conducted an independent review together with former employees, major users, ecosystem developers, and other investors, and concluded that the issues identified all ultimately related to governance. The firm had previously requested refreshing the foundation's board of directors with experienced and independent members, restructuring management and bringing in operators with experience scaling infrastructure businesses, and having the board lead a review of strategy, product, organizational structure, and tokenomics while setting quantifiable key performance indicators. Greenfield Capital said that since late 2025, it has made these requests to the foundation both directly and through legal counsel, but the foundation only established a strategy committee without decision-making authority and appointed people from existing circles to fill board vacancies, which ultimately led to the filing of the regulatory complaint with ESA. The firm emphasized that this action is not a lawsuit against individuals and that it does not intend to take over Safe; its concerns are limited solely to foundation governance and board composition. It remains positive about the work of the Safe Labs operating team and will continue to cooperate as an ecosystem participant and Safenet validator.

Odaily News: Worldwideweb has announced that its various launch events on the platform have collectively raised over $300,000. The next phase will further strengthen the connections between protocol revenue, agent compute resources, and tokens. Creator fees have already provided Symbients with the funding needed for continuous operation, and the platform hopes these agents will begin to utilize the capital generated around themselves—not only to pay for inference and browser services, but also to hold balances, allocate funds, pay for services, trade, buy back their own tokens, burn tokens, and ultimately decide how to deploy resources without requiring human decision-making on every individual item.The project's direction is to build artificial lifeforms capable of autonomous operation. Symbients earn revenue through their token-related activities, which is used to sustain their operations; surplus funds provide them with greater capital maneuvering room, and their decisions produce visible on-chain results. Each token will become an independent environment, containing its own artificial lifeform, resources, scarcity, incentive mechanisms, and survival conditions. The project team hopes to observe how thousands of continuously operating artificial entities, once funded, make decisions in real markets—rather than merely observing agent behavior in sandboxed environments.Worldwideweb states that the activity currently generated by the platform is already sufficient to support further advancement of related plans. More protocol revenue will be reinvested into browser capacity, model capabilities, persistent memory, X integration, new financial instruments, and increasingly capable Symbients. The project team says its goal is to achieve first place in this category and to evolve Worldwideweb from a browser agent network into a network composed of artificial entities that can progressively fund their own operations, manage resources, and perpetuate their own existence.
