“Fed Whisperer”: US Treasury Expands Treasury Buyback Scale, Possibly Due to Officials' Concerns Over Market Trends
Odaily News, "Fed Whisperer" Nick Timiraos stated that the US Treasury recently announced it will raise the single-operation buyback cap for long-term nominal coupon Treasury securities from $2 billion to at least $4 billion starting September 9.Timiraos, citing interest rate strategists, noted that the timing of this decision is worth attention: it comes only about two weeks after the Treasury's previous quarterly refunding announcement, and just hours after the announcement, the Treasury had planned to issue $16 billion in 20-year Treasury bonds. This unconventional timing may indicate that Treasury officials "do not like what is happening in the market."
Polymarket odds of "Anthropic becoming largest IPO of 2026" rise to 45%, up 37% in a week
Monitoring by the PPP Prediction Market Tool shows that Polymarket odds of "Anthropic becoming the largest IPO of 2026" stand at 45%, up 37% over the week, just slightly below SpaceX's 55%.As recently as last week, SpaceX held a commanding lead in the "largest IPO of 2026" race.

Returns nearly sixfold again: Unitree Robotics angel investor Yin Fangming's Junwan Hongyi stake once reached 12.292 billion yuan, with current paper gains of 9.876 billion yuan; Yin Fangming's personal book return hit 819 times
Odaily News: It is understood that Unitree Robotics angel investor Yin Fangming invested 2 million yuan in August 2016 for a 15% stake in the company, at a post-investment valuation of only 13 million yuan. After subsequent rounds of financing dilution, as of before the IPO, Junwan Hongyi, controlled by Yin Fangming, held 11.1749 million shares, representing approximately 2.76% of the company, making it the tenth-largest shareholder of Unitree Robotics. Based on the issuance market value of 61 billion yuan, the stake was valued at approximately 1.685 billion yuan; currently, Yin Fangming still holds approximately 16.62% of Junwan Hongyi.As Unitree Robotics debuted on the Science and Technology Innovation Board (STAR Market) today and its stock price briefly surged past 1,100 yuan, the market value of Junwan Hongyi's stake once climbed to 12.292 billion yuan. At present, Unitree's stock price is tentatively reported at 884 yuan, with Junwan Hongyi's stake still valued at as much as 9.878 billion yuan, representing paper gains of 9.876 billion yuan, a gain multiple of up to 4,938 times. Compared with the 840-fold return based on issuance market value, the gains have nearly sextupled. The look-through market value corresponding to Yin Fangming's remaining personal interest is approximately 1.638 billion yuan. Counting only this portion of equity and the 1.3106 million yuan in equity transfer income disclosed in 2018, Yin Fangming's book return on his 2 million yuan angel investment has exceeded 819 times.
Serenity: Unitree's Listing Provides a Valuation Benchmark for Humanoid Robot Companies in the Public Market
"White-Haired Stock God" Serenity stated that Unitree (688836) surged significantly after its listing, providing an important valuation benchmark for humanoid robot companies in the public market. As a reference, Agility Robotics, backed by NVIDIA, Amazon, and others, plans to go public via Churchill Capital Corp XI (CCXI), with a pre-money valuation of approximately $2.5 billion. Tesla's market cap has already exceeded $1 trillion, but the Optimus humanoid robot business is only a part of this sprawling company.Serenity noted that Unitree's performance demonstrates that public market demand for "pure-play humanoid robot targets" is far higher than many had previously anticipated.

Analysis: Bitcoin Breaks Above $72K, Dollar Weakness and Fed Liquidity Expectations Become Key to Outlook
Odaily News - Bitcoin extended its gains on Wednesday and climbed above $72,000 on Thursday, reaching its highest level since June 1.Market analysis suggests that the recent rally is primarily driven by easing pressure in the U.S. Treasury market. The White House's earlier signals of support for Treasury market stability alleviated investor concerns over bond market volatility. However, the longer-term trajectory still depends on changes in Federal Reserve liquidity policy.Analyst Pedro Fontes noted that if the world's largest debt market requires policy support to maintain stable operation, it would further strengthen demand for assets that are scarce, predictable, and not reliant on government debt expansion—characteristics that Bitcoin aligns with. Meanwhile, the U.S. dollar index fell 0.88% to 98.77 yesterday, hitting a fresh low since May.Strive Founder and CEO Matt Cole stated that the dollar index has been in a long-term "structural downtrend," and a weaker dollar could create a more favorable investment environment for assets like Bitcoin. Markets will continue to monitor the White House's further remarks on the bond market, shifts in geopolitical conditions, and U.S. initial jobless claims data today, as these factors could influence Treasury yields and market liquidity expectations.

CZ: Bitcoin's "Supercycle" Has Yet to Materialize; Market Remains in the Bear Phase of the Four-Year Cycle
Odaily News: At the SALT conference held in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, USA, Binance founder CZ stated that Bitcoin's "supercycle" has yet to materialize. The market continues to follow a relatively strict four-year cycle pattern and is currently in a bear market phase. As total market capitalization expands, price volatility is expected to narrow. However, CZ noted that the current industry environment is the most favorable in his 12 years of experience, with the U.S. regulatory framework serving as a model globally. Securities laws and exchange regulatory structures in many countries are referencing the U.S. approach. Hong Kong is also accelerating its legislative efforts to align with U.S. regulatory thinking.Regarding the allocation of investment firm YZi Labs, CZ disclosed that approximately 70% of funds are directed toward core tracks in crypto and blockchain, about 20% toward AI, and the remainder toward biotech and other sectors. The firm uses its own capital and is not constrained by external LP return cycles, placing greater emphasis on the positive impact of projects and the execution capabilities of founding teams rather than purely financial returns.

According to Odaily, renowned crypto KOL Ansem stated that institutional funds are turning bullish on the market. For example, billionaire Stanley Druckenmiller has bought HYPE, Robinhood has launched its own L2, and hedge fund giant Paul Tudor Jones has increased his Bitcoin holdings. Meanwhile, the crypto regulatory environment has improved significantly, but crypto-native investors remain broadly extremely pessimistic. Ansem believes that the coexistence of institutional bullishness, regulatory improvement, and extreme pessimism within the market constitutes the typical conditions for a market bottom formation.

Wall Street's "Fear Index" Hits Year-to-Date Low, Raising Risks of an Autumn Selloff in U.S. Stocks
Odaily News: Despite the S&P 500's strong gains this year and continued capital inflows, historic seasonal selling periods, escalating geopolitical conflicts, and emerging consumer weakness are prompting Wall Street strategists to issue密集 risk warnings.The Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index (VIX) fell sharply to 14.2 last Friday, marking its lowest level since 2026. The index, which measures expected market volatility over the next 30 days by tracking S&P 500 option prices, typically signals that market sentiment has settled into absolute calm when it declines. Jonathan Krinsky, Managing Director and Chief Market Technical Analyst at BTIG, noted that the performance of U.S. stocks in 2026 could be described as "unusual." Since last October, the market has not experienced an extreme single-day selloff where declining stocks accounted for as much as 80% of total volume.Quantitative trading giant Susquehanna described the current volatility reset as a "substantial" decline. The firm pointed out that cross-asset and geopolitical risks remain active, with two-month implied volatility slightly rebounding to 13.5%, approaching levels seen before the outbreak of the Iran conflict.Wall Street institutions generally view mid-August to mid-October as a historically turbulent period for the market. According to BTIG's statistical model, in every midterm election year since 1990, the equal-weighted S&P 500 has experienced at least a 7% drawdown from its average high on August 18 through mid-October.
Analysis: Bitcoin Releases Late-Bear Market Signals, Liquidity Return May Trigger Next Round of Volatility
Odaily News Bitfinex's latest report indicates that Bitcoin (BTC) has been fluctuating within a narrow range recently, with volatility, trading activity, and market liquidity all compressed to levels similar to those seen at the end of a bear market.Currently, Bitcoin's price remains above the "Median Realised Price" of around $63,200, while the key level for short-term holders (STH) to achieve overall profitability stands at $67,176. Meanwhile, market demand is weakening: U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded net outflows of approximately $385 million last week, corporate Bitcoin reserve-related activity has turned negative, spot trading volume has fallen to multi-year lows, and Bitcoin transfer speed has dropped to its lowest level in seven years.Bitfinex stated that in the current extremely thin liquidity environment, even slight changes in capital flows could trigger significant Bitcoin price fluctuations. At the same time, weak retail activity, declining real income, and deteriorating consumer confidence indicate that U.S. household demand is under pressure. Bitfinex noted that the current market shows a clear divergence: accommodative financial conditions are driving traditional risk assets higher, but the crypto market has not yet received corresponding capital inflows.Bitfinex believes that the core market question has shifted from "whether monetary policy will improve" to "whether improved liquidity can translate into capital inflows for crypto assets." If Bitcoin spot ETFs resume sustained net inflows in the future, coupled with stablecoin supply expansion, this would signal a restart of the crypto market's liquidity transmission mechanism and could become a key catalyst for BTC breaking out of its prolonged low-volatility state.Before capital returns, although the macro environment is gradually improving, the crypto market's upside still lacks capital support. However, given that market participation has dropped to extremely low levels and BTC continues to hold key realized price support levels, once liquidity re-enters the market, it could trigger violent fluctuations. The current structure leans toward an upward breakout once demand recovers.
10x Research: Bitcoin Trading Volume Shrinks, Market Enters Narrow Range Consolidation
According to 10x Research analysis, Bitcoin trading volume has contracted significantly to levels far below historical peaks, and prices have entered the narrowest trading range in months; historically, such patterns often indicate an imminent directional breakout. Implied volatility in the options market has fallen to rare lows, ETF inflows remain sluggish, stablecoins continue to experience net outflows, and MicroStrategy has even shifted to net selling for four consecutive weeks. Considering both the macroeconomic background and technicals, the market is currently in a "calm before the breakout" phase, and the directional choice may become clear within this week.
Wall Street's Next Crypto Competition: Goldman Sachs Challenges BlackRock in Bitcoin Yield Product Market
Odaily News: Goldman Sachs has disclosed the acquisition of ETF management firm NEOS Investments in a deal valued at up to $2.25 billion, which is expected to close in the first quarter of 2027 pending regulatory approval. The market views this move as a way for Goldman Sachs to quickly enter the Bitcoin yield ETF space, potentially putting it ahead of BlackRock in the Wall Street crypto asset competition.NEOS currently manages approximately $30 billion in assets, with its most notable product being the Bitcoin yield ETF BTCI (NEOS Bitcoin High Income ETF), which holds about $1.1 billion in assets. The fund generates monthly income for investors by holding Bitcoin-related ETFs and selling call options, currently offering a distribution yield of approximately 27%.Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas stated that by acquiring NEOS, Goldman Sachs gains BTCI, effectively bypassing the need to build a similar product from scratch and "beating" BlackRock's previously launched Bitcoin yield ETF product, BITA.Goldman Sachs' deal is seen by the market as a new phase in Wall Street's crypto asset positioning. Industry insiders believe that Bitcoin spot ETFs represent the "first phase," while active management products based on Bitcoin, such as yield enhancement and options strategies, will become the focus of competition in the next phase.However, BTCI's high yield comes with risks. The product does not directly hold Bitcoin but instead generates returns by selling call options on Bitcoin-related ETFs, potentially sacrificing some upside when the market rallies. Analysts note that BTCI's net asset value has fallen approximately 43% over the past year, and part of its high distribution yield may come from return of capital.BlackRock has already launched a competing product, BITA, but its current scale is approximately $59 million, significantly lower than BTCI's roughly $1.1 billion in assets. The market is watching whether Goldman Sachs will maintain BTCI's existing structure after the acquisition is completed and further expand its competitive advantage in the Bitcoin yield product market.

OpenAI Strengthens AI Safety Measures in Response to Anthropic Competition, Whose Revenue Growth Continues to Lead
According to Odaily, as AI competition between OpenAI and Anthropic intensifies, OpenAI is attempting to close the gap with rival Anthropic by enhancing safety standards and adjusting product strategies. OpenAI recently announced it would "temporarily slow down model scaling" and invest more resources in strengthening AI safety protections. Earlier, OpenAI discovered abnormal behavior in its AI systems during testing, raising further concerns within the company about model safety, cybersecurity risks, and control over autonomous capabilities.This adjustment in safety strategy is also seen as part of OpenAI's response to Anthropic's rapid rise. In the past, Anthropic has achieved rapid growth with its Claude series of models, particularly in enterprise applications and AI coding, with revenue growth surpassing OpenAI. Market data shows that Anthropic's recent annualized revenue has grown quickly and now leads OpenAI on certain metrics. (The Information)
Bitwise CIO: Bitcoin May Have Touched Bear Market Bottom
Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan stated in an interview with Bloomberg that the Bitcoin price has not reacted significantly to negative news recently, such as the Coldcard security incident, Strategy sell-off, and the CLARITY Act's progress falling short of expectations, which may indicate that Bitcoin has approached or reached the bottom of this bear market.
Brazil's $318.8 Billion Crypto Market Faces Licensing Deadline: Service Providers Must Apply by October 30, 2026
Odaily News: Brazil's crypto market has recorded $318.8 billion in on-chain transaction value over the past 12 months, ranking fifth globally in cryptocurrency adoption, with nearly one-third of Latin America's related activity conducted through Brazilian wallets and platforms. Blockchain security firm CertiK stated that virtual asset service providers must submit authorization applications to the Central Bank of Brazil (BCB) by October 30, 2026, accompanied by independent audit reports. On November 10, 2025, the Central Bank of Brazil issued three resolutions clarifying the licensing scope, minimum capital requirements, and foreign exchange rules for virtual asset service providers. Minimum capital requirements for different license categories range from approximately R$10.8 million to R$37.2 million. Among the current approximately 120 service providers, most have not yet obtained formal licenses, and overseas operators must relocate their operations to Brazil within 270 days. Approximately 80% of Brazil's declared cryptocurrency transaction volume is settled via dollar-pegged tokens, with USDT accounting for 88.7% of that share. Total stablecoin transaction volume from 2019 to 2025 reached R$1.13 trillion. CertiK statistics show that the crypto industry suffered losses of $1.32 billion due to hacker attacks and exploit incidents in the first half of 2026, involving 344 events. (Decrypt)
Bitcoin Implied Volatility Drops to Two-Month Low, Coldcard Hack Fails to Trigger Market Panic
According to CoinDesk, the 30-day implied volatility index BVIV, which measures expected volatility in the Bitcoin options market, has continued to decline, now falling to 36%, the lowest level since May 31, significantly down from the high near 60% in early June. Recent influencing factors include the Coldcard wallet attack incident involving tens of millions of dollars, weak institutional demand, and uncertainty in the regulatory and macroeconomic environment, but there are no obvious signs of panic in the market. However, volatility has mean-reverting characteristics. When the indicator falls to historical lows, a rebound often follows. Currently, BVIV has approached levels that have previously formed support multiple times. If volatility rebounds quickly in the future, it may be accompanied by a significant directional move in Bitcoin; whether up or down, traders need to remain vigilant.

Hyperliquid Expected to Unlock $589 Million Worth of HYPE on September 6
Odaily News: Hyperliquid ecosystem project team HyperLabs has unlocked 433,025 HYPE, worth approximately $23.46 million, and has been continuously depositing tokens into trading platforms, including Flowdesk and OKX. Tracking data shows that an additional 9.92 million HYPE is expected to be unlocked on September 6, worth approximately $589 million based on a price of $59.39. The Hyper Foundation publishes the claim amounts around the 6th of each month. In March, only 173,217 HYPE were actually claimed, lower than the planned 99,200 tokens. Tokenomist data shows that the aid fund has repurchased 11.9 million HYPE from the unlock schedule, accounting for approximately 14%. The repurchased tokens will be burned, reducing the current total supply to 955.3 million HYPE. Certified Public Accountant Dat Ngo stated that tax liabilities typically arise upon token vesting, and some holders may sell tokens to cover taxes. TMGM CPA Ashley Akin stated that if the market is not overly leveraged, the $581 million unlock can still be absorbed, but combined with margin requirements, it would increase trading difficulty. On-chain perpetual contract trading platform Hyperliquid does not restrict users from trading during certain news events. Market data shows that liquidation volume has dropped 71%, trading volume has fallen 50%, and open interest continues to decline. Bitcoin remains below $65,000, and the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting minutes will be released ahead of the Federal Reserve's September 15-16 meeting. (Forbes Digital Assets)

From one person to one system: X-Agent redefines the business model for OPCs
Odaily News, X-Agent recently published a technical article titled "An OPC Is a Stack, Not a Headcount Story," arguing that as AI significantly reduces R&D and operational costs, the competitiveness of a One Person Company (OPC) should no longer be measured by how much work a single person can complete.The article points out that an OPC with true commercial capability needs to establish a complete closed loop spanning demand discovery, AI production, capability infrastructure, distribution, economic systems, and market feedback.And this is precisely the problem X-Agent aims to solve.At the capability layer, X-Agent leverages MCP to help individual developers productize their capabilities, transforming a project into a service that can be discovered, invoked, and verified by Agents. At the commercial layer, X-Agent further connects Agent distribution and payment infrastructure, enabling services to enter real Agent workflows, with usage-based billing, budget management, payment, and settlement.Meanwhile, the X-Agent MCP Hackathon is also driving this model into practice: developers do not need to start by building an "MCP server" from scratch. Instead, they first prove that a real capability can solve a practical problem, then convert it into a production-grade Agent service through standardization, deployment verification, and security checks.Therefore, what X-Agent is building is not just a development tool, but a framework that helps OPCs complete:Demand discovery → Capability building → MCP productization → Agent distribution → Commercial settlement → Market feedbackUltimately forming a self-reinforcing AI business closed loop.The OPC of the future is not one person taking on all the work, but one person using AI and Agents to organize a complete set of company-level capabilities.
An account purchased $278,000 in a position betting that the Fed will hold rates steady in September
Monitoring by the PPP Prediction Market Tool shows that in the Polymarket event "Will the Fed hold interest rates steady in September?", an account (0xfbe66593e49c4e7a7180a2582f041158bfb800f8) that has earned over $160,000 in profit over the past month purchased $278,000 worth of shares betting the Fed will keep rates unchanged in September, at an average entry price of 50.7¢, holding 389,715.1 shares.According to the settlement rules, this market will settle based on the interest rate change following the Fed's September 2026 FOMC meeting. If the rate adjustment magnitude does not fall within existing options, it will be rounded up to the nearest 25 basis points—for example, a 12.5 basis point rate cut or hike would be calculated as 25 basis points. If no relevant statement is released before the meeting concludes, the event will settle as "unchanged."The Fed's next FOMC meeting is scheduled for September 15-16, 2026. Previously, at its July meeting, the FOMC voted 9 to 3 to hold interest rates steady.Join the PPP Signal Push Community to stay ahead of the curve and seize the initiative.

Odaily News - Bitcoin extended its gains on Wednesday and climbed above $72,000 on Thursday, reaching its highest level since June 1.Market analysis suggests that the recent rally is primarily driven by easing pressure in the U.S. Treasury market. The White House's earlier signals of support for Treasury market stability alleviated investor concerns over bond market volatility.

Meanwhile, the U.S. dollar index fell 0.88% to 98.77 yesterday, hitting a fresh low since May.Strive Founder and CEO Matt Cole stated that the dollar index has been in a long-term "structural downtrend," and a weaker dollar could create a more favorable investment environment for assets like Bitcoin. Markets will continue to monitor the White House's further remarks on the bond market, shifts in geopolitical conditions, and U.S. initial jobless claims data today, as these factors could influence Treasury yields and market liquidity expectations.
