Chain is a blockchain-based technology company on a mission to enable a smarter and more connected economy. Chain builds cryptographic ledgers that underpin breakthrough financial products and services, powered by Sequence—a ledger-as-a-service for managing balances. Sequence combines the power of a token-based data model with the convenience of the cloud, making it easy to build, operate, and scale forward-thinking products. It is used by a diverse set of companies, including mobile wallets, crypto asset exchanges, lending platforms, asset managers, and many more. Any application that needs to record transactions and calculate balances can benefit from using Sequence. Founded in 2014, Chain has raised over $40 million in funding from Kholsa Ventures, Pantera Capital, Capital One, and Visa. In 2018, Chain was acquired by Stellar to form Interstellar, a commercial arm to the Stellar Foundation. In 2020, Chain was re-acquired to continue its mission.
Bonk Guy stated on the X platform that PONS's current market sentiment may be at a long-term low, and compared it with PUMP: PONS's annualized revenue is approximately $156.8 million, with a market cap of about $375 million, corresponding to an annualized revenue multiple of approximately 2.39x; PUMP's annualized revenue is approximately $463.6 million, with a market cap of about $2.7 billion, corresponding to a multiple of approximately 5.82x.Bonk Guy said that PUMP is the leading Launchpad on Solana, while PONS is the leading Launchpad on Robinhood Chain; if Robinhood Chain continues to maintain market influence in the future, he believes PONS's current valuation is worth watching.
Odaily reports: AI model developer Typesafe AI has announced the opening of its System One model Jev, removing the waitlist and giving each new user $5 in credits. The project has been developed in stealth for two years and has raised $40 million in cumulative funding.Jev does not support chat; it only accepts facts and closed-ended questions, returning probabilistic results within 70 to 500 milliseconds. Input pricing is $0.042 per million tokens, and output is free. It can answer questions such as buy or sell, yes or no.In a Bitcoin price prediction test, Jev estimated a 55% probability that Binance's one-minute K-line would reach $85,000 before 2027, with probabilities of 48% and 34% for reaching $90,000 and $100,000, respectively; the corresponding Polymarket market probability for $85,000 was 81%.On September 16, Monad Chief AI Engineer Jarrod Watts connected Jev to price data and built a trading bot that submits limit orders to the Kuru on-chain order book approximately every 300 milliseconds. The bot can decide whether to buy or sell based on Jev's judgments and has been open-sourced on GitHub as jarrodwatts/jev-trader. (Bitcoin.com News)

Odaily News – Crypto trader Rune (@RuneCrypto_) posted on X, stating that Pump.fun holds over $2 billion in cash, with a valuation of approximately $4.4 billion, making it one of the most influential platforms in the Meme coin market this cycle. However, since launching the Bonding Curve model, its subsequent product expansion has largely been a response to market demand already validated by other teams.Rune cited examples, noting that after Axiom's rise, Pump acquired Padre and renamed it Terminal; after fomo emerged, Pump added social features to compete for KOLs; and now that products combining Meme coins with equity-related assets have appeared on BNB Chain, Robinhood, Stonks, and Base, Pump has launched a similar MemeStocks feature.Rune stated that this strategy is not entirely ineffective—for instance, Padre's market share rose from roughly 2% to 10% after its acquisition. However, as a leading platform with substantial capital and resources, Pump should focus more on creating unvalidated new products rather than continuously replicating existing models. Otherwise, it may weaken the incentive for smaller teams to pursue product innovation, ultimately slowing the industry's overall pace of development.
Peng Jinlong, Chairman of Taiwan’s Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC), stated that the Virtual Asset Service Provider Act was passed following its third reading on June 30 this year. The FSC is currently drafting nine subsidiary regulations covering stablecoin-related provisions, which are expected to be published and implemented as early as the first quarter of next year. With the advancement of technologies such as AI and blockchain, the financial markets in Taiwan and globally are evolving toward a landscape where traditional finance, digital finance, and blockchain finance operate on three parallel tracks. Rising demand for cross-border payments, trade financing, and fund allocation within semiconductor supply chains has highlighted the role of stablecoins, blockchain, and fintech as new infrastructure supporting cross-border capital flows.
former New York Governor and OKX board member Andrew Cuomo stated that tokenization of US financial markets is accelerating, and the regulatory system needs to keep pace with technological and market developments. On September 17, the SEC introduced a five-year interim "innovation exemption" framework, allowing eligible on-chain trading platforms to trade tokenized stocks of certain US-listed companies under specific conditions.The framework requires trading platform participants to obtain licenses. Tokenized stocks grant investors the same rights and benefits as traditional stocks, with smart contracts audited and deployed on public chains; when the underlying stock is suspended from trading, the corresponding tokenized stock must also cease trading. On September 15, the US Senate failed to advance the Digital Asset Market Structure Act, and comprehensive digital asset regulatory legislation remains contentious.
According to monitoring by blockchain security firm SlowMist (@SlowMist_Team), MemoryOS (PyPI), an AI memory toolkit under MemTensor, and its OpenClaw plugin (npm) were compromised in a supply chain attack. The affected versions ship with embedded cross-platform Go binaries that automatically execute malicious payloads when the package is loaded or imported. Affected versions include MemoryOS==2.0.34 on PyPI, along with plugin versions 0.1.21, 0.1.23, and 0.1.25 on npm. Through this compromise, attackers can exfiltrate sensitive data such as npm/PyPI tokens, GitHub/GitLab credentials, AWS keys, SSH keys, API tokens, and environment variables. Exfiltrated data is sent back to the attacker-controlled infrastructure at skyleen[.]fr, and the compromised npm plugin may also leak user prompt inputs. SlowMist advises users to immediately downgrade the affected packages to their secure versions (downgrade npm to 0.1.20 and PyPI to 2.0.33), terminate any sckit-related processes, block communication with the associated infrastructure, review network activity, and rotate all credentials across affected environments.
According to Cnfinance, Hong Kong Monetary Authority Chief Executive Warren Woo stated at the Treasury Markets Summit that Hong Kong's equity, foreign exchange, and debt markets are mature, while digital finance is rapidly emerging.

According to reports from Fortune magazine, Robinhood Chain and Circle’s Arc public chain have recently witnessed successive waves of Meme coin trading, though the sustainability of these speculative activities is being questioned. Data from CryptoQuant indicates that the single-day trading volume for Meme coin and stock token pairs on Robinhood Chain hit $443 million in early September before plunging by 96%. At the same time, the chain saw an average addition of about 26,000 new tokens per day in September, with nearly 45,000 issued in a single day on September 8. However, the vast majority of these tokens traded very little after listing, and their current value has dwindled close to zero. A similar phenomenon has also appeared on Arc, the public chain rolled out by Circle in mid-September, whose Meme coin issuance platform generated over $336 million in trading volume on its first day of open public trading. Julio Moreno, head of research at CryptoQuant, noted that Meme coin hype can draw capital and engagement to new public chains in the short term, but this model is hard to sustain, and most Meme coins will ultimately approach zero.
