The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision released statistical data for the second half of 2025. Banks' prudential risk exposure to crypto assets remained broadly flat overall, but the asset composition shifted: in the Americas, Bitcoin's share fell from 75.8% to 44.2%, Ethereum rose to 38.5%, and Solana and XRP accounted for 7.8% and 5.6%, respectively; stablecoin proportions increased in other regions. In the same period, the volume of crypto asset business conducted by banks in the Americas on behalf of clients grew by 93% to €6.4 billion, while that in Europe decreased by 25% to €1.9 billion.
Odaily News: Binance.US has announced that Binance.US Wallet, a self-custody wallet built into its App, is now available to eligible iOS and Android users. Without leaving the Binance.US App, users can switch between the centralized exchange and the wallet, and access tens of thousands of tokens and hundreds of DApps, with support for major blockchain networks including Ethereum, BNB Chain, Base, Arbitrum, Polygon, Solana, and Robinhood Chain.Binance.US stated that the wallet uses seed-phrase-free key sharding technology, splitting keys for storage across the user's device, personal cloud storage, and Binance.US. Users need at least two of these key shares to access the wallet, and Binance.US holds only one. In addition, users can export their private keys at any time or import the seed phrase of an existing wallet. Binance.US also plans to support cryptocurrency transfers between the exchange and the wallet, buy and sell functionality via convenient payment methods, and more tokens, blockchain networks, and DApps in the future.

According to CoinDesk, Solana has been testing the Alpenglow upgrade on its public testnet, aiming to reduce transaction finality from approximately 12.8 seconds to 150 milliseconds. The upgrade will replace TowerBFT with the Votor voting protocol, enabling validators to confirm blocks through one to two rounds of direct voting. Currently, testing only supports the Agave 4.3 client developed by Anza, while Firedancer and Frankendancer under Jump Crypto have not yet been integrated. A mainnet launch date has not yet been confirmed.
the Alpenglow upgrade for the Solana blockchain network has entered public testnet, with developers set to test reducing transaction finality from approximately 13 seconds to 0.15 seconds, or 150 milliseconds.The upgrade will replace Solana's existing TowerBFT consensus system with Votor, allowing validators to confirm blocks through one or two rounds of direct voting, though the way users send funds will not change.The initial testnet migration requires Agave 4.3, and Firedancer or Frankendancer are not yet supported. The September 28 mainnet update remains a tentative arrangement and is not a confirmed launch date for Alpenglow. (CoinDesk)
OpenAI officially launches two new models, GPT-6 SOL and GPT-6 LUNA, effective immediately for Plus, Pro, Business, and Enterprise users, with support for the ChatGPT Work and Codex platforms.
Odaily reports: Solana founder Toly posted on X, stating: "AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) is still a long way off. As for my test project Percolator, if I were writing the code full-time myself, it would probably already be launched by now. The area where AI performs best is in the design and specification research phase, as well as fuzz testing to find bugs. If that approach were adopted, code quality would likely be better. But the number of good products actually brought to market today is unlikely to be greater than before the era of large models."Previously, Toly announced last year that he would launch Percolator, a next-generation perpetual futures decentralized exchange built on Solana. It uses a sharded order book, executes at speeds comparable to centralized exchanges (CEX), and is fully open-source.
Odaily News: The ZetaChain community has passed Proposal 68 with a voter participation rate of 58%, exceeding the 40% quorum threshold; both against votes and abstentions accounted for 0.3%.ZetaChain stated that the project will shift its focus to Anuma, an AI application launched in February this year, and will no longer maintain its independent Layer 1 built on Cosmos SDK. Anuma claims to have over 300,000 users and has processed 1 million requests from 35 AI models.According to the proposal, ZETA will be converted to Solana-native SPL tokens at a 1:1 ratio, retaining the original token ticker and total supply, with the existing unlock schedule unchanged; ZETA on Ethereum and BNB Chain is not included in this migration. The shutdown timeline has not yet been determined, and a second vote will be held to determine the balance snapshot block, shutdown block, token claiming, and asset withdrawal plans. The project team will not initiate the second vote until trading platforms confirm the exchange arrangements; during this period, ZETA staking will continue.
Solana lowered its target slot time from 300 milliseconds to 250 milliseconds on September 18, marking the third speed increase since August. As the computation and data each slot can carry are proportionally reduced, overall network throughput has not increased; this adjustment is the third phase of the four-phase SIMD-0525 plan, with slot time having been reduced from 400 milliseconds at genesis through 350 milliseconds and 300 milliseconds to 250 milliseconds. The final step down to 200 milliseconds has not yet been scheduled for mainnet activation, contingent on validator skip rates remaining stable.
Odaily Report: The proposal has been published on ZetaHub, proposing to convert ZETA to a Solana native SPL token at a 1:1 ratio while retaining the original token ticker; no migration will take place until ZETA holders complete voting.The proposal also plans to introduce Anuma, a privacy-focused multi-model AI application. Anuma has 300,000 users, supports unified memory across models, and has launched a beta feature for real-life social discovery. Voting will open on September 17 and last for 72 hours.
Solana shortened its target slot time from 300 milliseconds to 250 milliseconds on Friday, increasing block production frequency by nearly 17%. The computing resources and data volume available per slot are reduced accordingly, while the network's overall transaction processing capacity remains unchanged.This adjustment is the third of four planned phases in the SIMD-0525 proposal. The window during which validators have block production rights for four consecutive slots has been shortened from 1.2 seconds to 1 second, and the estimated duration of an Epoch, fixed at 432,000 slots, has been reduced from about 36 hours to about 30 hours.The next phase plans to further reduce slot time to 200 milliseconds, but a mainnet launch date has not yet been determined, and the implementation condition is that the block skip rate remains stable.

According to The Block, Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan has revised his previous assessment regarding the impact of the Clarity Act's failure. The bill secured only 49 votes in a procedural Senate vote, falling short of the 60-vote threshold needed to advance. While Hougan had previously forecasted that a failed bill would trigger several weeks of crypto market weakness, he noted in his latest client report that Bitcoin has continued to rise after bottoming out around $57,950 on July 1, surpassing $80,000 on September 4. In the same period, Polymarket’s implied probability for the bill’s passage within the year dropped from 39% to 14%. Price action moving contrary to these expectations suggests that the bull market does not rely on legislative passage. Hougan also pointed out that initiatives such as Robinhood launching its own blockchain, Morgan Stanley listing a Solana ETF, and DTCC completing the settlement of the first batch of tokenized stocks demonstrate that Wall Street institutions are already positioning themselves ahead of regulatory clarity. He noted that proactive rulemaking by the SEC and CFTC can partially fill legislative gaps, but acknowledged that executive regulations carry the risk of being overturned by future administrations. Consequently, congressional legislation remains the sole path to providing lasting regulatory certainty.
Odaily News: Bitget has announced an upgrade to its Proof of Reserves (PoR) system, expanding asset coverage from the original 4 cryptocurrencies to 19 major assets, with newly added tokens including XAUT, SOL, BNB, USDGO, and others. This upgrade simultaneously expands the scope of platform-level reserve disclosure and individual asset proof verification. Users can view each asset's reserve ratio, scale, and on-chain distribution through the PoR page, and use Merkle Tree to independently verify whether their personal holdings are included in the reserve snapshot.Bitget has been publishing monthly reserve reports since December 2022, and as of August 2026, has published 45 consecutive issues, with the latest overall reserve ratio at 122%. Bitget CEO Gracy stated that as the variety of assets supported by the platform continues to increase, reserve transparency and verification capabilities also need to expand in tandem, enabling more users to independently verify their assets and further enhancing platform transparency.
