Bank of England Launches Phase 2 of Digital Pound Lab, Testing Interoperability Between Stablecoins and Central Bank Digital Currency for Cross-Border Payments
According to CoinDesk, the Bank of England (BOE) announced that its digital pound project has officially entered the second phase, focusing on testing whether public stablecoins and Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC) can interoperate within a single payment stream to promote the modernization of cross-border trade finance. This experiment focuses on SME trade finance scenarios: exporters receive advance financing through stablecoin technology, while UK importers complete final settlement using the digital pound. Participants include UK fintech company NOBO Finance, global business data analytics firm Dun & Bradstreet, and blockchain company Polygon Labs. The three parties will integrate wallet transaction data, open finance information, and business intelligence to build reusable credit assessment profiles for SMEs. Polygon will provide stablecoin settlement infrastructure through its Open Money Stack, encompassing fiat currency exchange, wallet, and smart contract functionalities. The BOE emphasized that the laboratory does not involve real customers or funds, does not represent a decision to officially issue the digital pound, and the experimental results will serve as a reference for the joint assessment of the digital pound by the Bank of England and the Treasury later this year.

Cathie Wood: Open-Source AI Is Making OpenAI and Anthropic Richer
According to BeInCrypto, ARK Invest founder Cathie Wood recently expressed a view that overturns the market's traditional perception of open-source AI. She pointed out that the capabilities of open-source models such as Meta, Mistral, and DeepSeek are continuously enhancing, which instead expands the cybersecurity attack surface, forcing enterprises to continuously procure frontier AI as a defense layer, thereby driving revenue growth for OpenAI and Anthropic rather than harming them. Data from the UK AI Safety Institute shows that the cyber attack capabilities of open-source models have caught up to the level of frontier models from 4 to 7 months ago. Wood named OpenAI, Anthropic, and SpaceXAI as the three companies most likely to capture the bulk of AI model revenue; ARK currently holds positions in all three companies. Currently, Anthropic has already submitted an S-1 filing at a valuation of nearly $1 trillion, and OpenAI is expected to go public in September 2026.

Coinbase, Visa, and Mastercard Say Open USD Is Not a Replacement for USDC
Odaily News: Following the launch of Open USD, concerns arose in the market that it could directly challenge Circle's USDC, leading to a loss of billions of dollars in Circle's market value. Executives from Coinbase, Visa, and Mastercard stated that the companies are advancing a multi-stablecoin, multi-chain strategy, positioning Open USD as an additional network rather than a replacement for USDC. Analysts noted that several Open USD partners have so far made only lightweight commitments, and that project execution capabilities, along with the existing liquidity of USDC and USDT, will be more critical than the scale of the Open USD alliance.
Bernstein cuts Circle price target to $140, maintains Outperform rating
According to The Block, Bernstein analyst Gautam Chhugani lowered Circle (CRCL)'s price target from $190 to $140, but maintained an "Outperform" rating, implying approximately 118% upside potential compared to the current stock price of $64.32. Bernstein expects Circle's Q2 performance to be essentially flat, with USDC supply decreasing from $77 billion at the end of Q1 to $73 billion. Regarding market concerns over the competitive threat from the Open USD alliance, Bernstein believes its cohesion is insufficient; Visa also stated it will maintain a multi-currency, multi-chain strategy and will not bet on a single winner. Additionally, the profit-sharing agreement between Circle and Hyperliquid is expected to transfer approximately $190 million in reserve yield annually to the latter, with the full impact to be reflected in Q3. Bernstein also lowered its end-of-2026 USDC supply forecast by 37% to $83 billion, but remains long-term bullish on Circle capturing approximately 30% share of the global stablecoin market by 2035.

Hamilton commented on this: "Black-hat hackers face no restrictions, while white-hat researchers dedicated to reducing risk are excluded."

One week after the NVIDIA-led AI Safety Alliance OSAA was established, it has already gathered over 120 companies.
According to TechCrunch, the Open Safety AI Alliance (OSAA), led by Nvidia, has exceeded 120 member companies just one week after its establishment, including tech and financial giants such as Adobe, BlackRock, Cisco, Intel, Microsoft, and Visa. During the Black Hat Cybersecurity Conference held in Las Vegas this week, the alliance established a working group named "Shared AI Findings Exchange" (SAFE) and has submitted multiple proposals open for public comment, managed by the Linux Foundation. The proposals cover confidential reporting mechanisms for AI cybersecurity incidents, alert processes for affected parties, and no-fault attribution analysis frameworks. Meanwhile, member companies are also actively contributing open-source technologies: Nvidia open-sourced the LLM vulnerability scanning tool Garak, Amazon contributed the agent building tool Strands Agents and authorization language Cedar, and Okta and Red Hat are advancing agent identity authentication and governance technologies respectively. Notably, Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google have not yet joined the alliance, although OpenAI and Google previously co-signed the open letter that spurred the creation of the alliance.
Anthropic Responds to Open Source Controversy: Opposes Full Ban on Open Models, Advocates for Restrictions on Chips and Model Distillation
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has responded to the controversy over open-weight models, stating that the company has never advocated for a total ban on open models. Previously, companies including OpenAI, Google, and SpaceX joined the open-source coalition, while Anthropic was the only major frontier model company not to sign on.Amodei acknowledged that open-weight models can lower costs, promote competition, and support customer self-deployment. He stated that open models without dangerous capabilities can be considered a "public good."However, he believes that open models are not necessarily safer, nor do defenders necessarily gain more advantages over attackers. Once model weights are made public, security restrictions may be removed and cannot be revoked.Anthropic proposed three alternative measures, including restricting the flow of advanced chips and manufacturing equipment to China, cracking down on industrial-scale model distillation, and requiring all models that reach a certain capability threshold—whether open-source or closed-source—to undergo testing for cyber attacks, biological risks, and alignment.
Jensen Huang: Establish Open Security AI Alliance to Strengthen Cyber Defense Capabilities with Open Models

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)
Mantle Unveils New Official Website and Brand Narrative: Building an Open Finance Network, Driving Borderless Access to Global Capital Markets
