Odaily News: Bitcoin News posted on X platform that Strike has launched the Stacks Bitcoin savings envelope system, allowing users to divide their holdings into up to 5 custom-named buckets, each of which supports fee-free recurring buys. Transfers between Stacks and the main balance are fee-free and unlimited in number, but funds must first be transferred back to the main balance before withdrawal. On the same day, Strike added 3.6% interest on USD cash balances, with interest paid in Bitcoin, and the relevant assets are still held in Strike's multisig cold storage.

Odaily News: Starknet, the Ethereum scaling network built by StarkWare, has stated that it is actively considering transitioning into an independent Layer 1 (L1) network and has set 2027 as its target for becoming the first fully quantum-resistant network. STRK was trading at approximately $0.073 on Friday, up about 20% in 24 hours and more than double its price of around $0.03 in April.StarkWare CEO Eli Ben-Sasson said that after becoming an L1, Starknet would be able to control security upgrades on its own without waiting for Ethereum to advance related work. As a Layer 2 (L2) network, Starknet currently relies on Ethereum for security; after transitioning to an L1, it will validate and secure transactions itself.Eli Ben-Sasson pointed out that quantum computers may in the future break the elliptic curve cryptography used by Bitcoin and Ethereum, and that AI's development in mathematics also poses another risk. Ethereum's roadmap is expected to complete core quantum-resistant infrastructure around 2029, while Starknet plans to move that up to 2027; currently, no quantum computer is capable of breaking these systems.

Odaily News: Nasdaq-listed company BTQ Technologies has announced a strategic partnership with MoonPay Korea to provide post-quantum cryptography (PQC) security solutions for its Korean won-backed stablecoin infrastructure. The two parties will jointly develop a quantum migration roadmap and conduct a proof of concept for BTQ's Quantum-Safe Stablecoin Network (QSSN) with Korean banking institutions, exploring quantum-resistant security mechanisms covering stablecoin issuance, distribution, wallets, and settlement processes. MoonPay Korea is building infrastructure to connect the Korean stablecoin market with MoonPay's global network, which covers approximately 180 countries and regions, with over 35 million customers and more than 1,500 enterprise clients.
Ostium has released an update on the design of its Phase II Loss Compensation Plan for Liquidity Providers (OLP). Designed for users with losses exceeding 1,000 USDC who did not select the Convenience Allocation, the plan offers two compensation mechanisms: Default Option A (USDC Installment Repayment): Funding sources include funds already recovered and those to be recovered in the future (distributed proportionally after deducting the Phase I portion), specific revenue shares from the Ostium protocol and Gateway income (initially set at 50% of Ostium's opening position fees), and potential partner incentives or revenue sharing. 2. Optional Option B (Ostium Labs Equity Conversion): Eligible users complying with securities regulations may, in the next priced funding round, convert a portion of their outstanding losses into Ostium Labs equity based on that round's valuation. The share class will align with that of the team, and a fully diluted cap is established for the total ownership percentage of participating users.

Starknet has published an introduction to its Quantum-Safe Bitcoin (QSB) scheme, stating that StarkWare researchers have verified a quantum-safe locking mechanism on the Bitcoin mainnet that requires no soft fork, no new opcodes, and no changes to consensus rules. The first QSB output was spent on August 26, 2026, in Bitcoin mainnet block 964,199, with the associated GPU computation cost reduced from approximately $320 to about $50. QSB builds its locking mechanism through hash computation, but each transaction still requires substantial computation, and moving assets into the scheme still requires a traditional transaction that carries quantum risk. The transaction does not comply with Bitcoin Core's default relay rules, and there is currently no accompanying wallet, address format, or recovery process. StarkWare stated that QSB is an emergency research solution, and that the long-term solution still requires the introduction of post-quantum signature mechanisms via a soft fork. Starknet's full quantum resistance also depends on the progress of Ethereum's underlying upgrades.

Odaily News: U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Chair Mike Selig stated that the CFTC's proposed crypto asset regulatory framework will establish a federal-level oversight system to protect exchange customers from fraud, market manipulation, and theft of customer funds, preventing a repeat of the FTX collapse. Mike Selig noted that the CFTC is working to introduce market-based regulatory mechanisms for crypto exchanges; he stated that critics who oppose these measures and support maintaining the status quo may objectively be benefiting fraudsters, manipulators, and those who misappropriate customer funds, and warned that the absence of such regulation could leave the door open for the next Sam Bankman-Fried figure.

Odaily News: South Korea's Ministry of Economy and Finance recently issued a preliminary administrative notice of proposed amendments to CARF-related regulations, which would require South Korean crypto asset service providers to retain addresses of external personal wallets, overseas wallets, and other addresses involved in transactions for 6 years. For transactions using crypto assets to purchase goods or services, when a single transaction reaches $50,000 or more, both the receiving merchant and the paying customer will be included in the reporting scope.The adjustments are intended to align with the implementation of the OECD Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework (CARF) on January 1, 2027. South Korea has also identified 55 participating jurisdictions, including the United Kingdom, Japan, Switzerland, the Cayman Islands, and the UAE, among others; the United States is currently participating in information exchange through a bilateral agreement pathway.

According to CoinDesk, the privacy cryptocurrency Zcash (ZEC) development team plans to introduce a post-quantum signature opcode on the network in January to support hash-based signatures, thereby defending against potential quantum computing attacks. This proposal primarily targets the transparent (public) payment pool, where approximately 70% of ZEC is currently held. Although developers have set January as the target deadline, the specific timing for network activation has not yet been finalized.
