The maximum number of active HIP-4 results that a single deployer can run simultaneously will increase from 100 to 200, and the maximum number of results that a single deployer can deploy daily will also increase from 500 to 1000.Jeff added that this adjustment was made based on feedback from the community Builders. In addition, the funding rate cap will also be adjusted from 4% per hour to 0.5% per hour in the next upgrade.

According to Onchain Lens monitoring, the DEED token on the Robinhood Chain is suspected to have experienced a rug pull. 110 associated wallets once controlled about 86% of the token supply and withdrew approximately $700,000; the creator also collected fees of 68.5 Ethereum (ETH), worth about $188,900.The market capitalization of DEED has dropped from a peak of $4.23 million to about $55,000, a decline of approximately 98.7%. The initial funds in the creator's wallet came from KuCoin.

SpaceX has confirmed the deployment of 27 Starlink satellites.

The privacy-oriented public chain Midnight is preparing to open smart contract deployment on the mainnet.

Sandeep Nailwal, CEO of the Polygon Foundation, stated that Polygon is preparing to deploy a permissionless burn contract that allows anyone to permanently burn 100 million POL, which accounts for approximately 83% of the 121 million tokens held by the Polygon base fee collector. The contract is currently live on the testnet and will be deployed to the mainnet after the security committee completes the final signature.The first round of burns will permanently destroy 100 million POL, after which community members can trigger burns every quarter. Polygon's documentation indicates that the base fee is determined by the network and will be burned, with Nailwal stating that each base fee will inject POL into the collector. Based on the above data, approximately 21 million POL will remain in the collector after the initial burn.This burn represents about 1% of the initial supply of 10 billion POL, and based on a total supply of approximately 10.716 billion as shown by Blockscout, it accounts for about 0.93%. The burn will not set a hard cap on POL, which will continue to be issued, with an annual issuance rate of about 2% after June 2025. Nailwal also mentioned that POL has entered deflation starting January 2026, citing data from his "ChatGPT Analyst" that Polygon's revenue in 2026 will be $24.5 million, higher than Arbitrum's $8.41 million and Near's $5.6 million.

On September 14, blockchain intelligence company TRM Labs released a report revealing that fake YouTube tutorials lured 224 victims into deploying and funding malicious smart contracts under the guise of building AI-based crypto arbitrage bots, resulting in the theft of 274.6 ETH. TRM identified a total of 234 contracts deployed by the victims, with funds ultimately flowing into six collection addresses controlled by the operators. The stolen ETH was worth approximately $517,000 at the time of the transfer, with a median loss of 1 ETH per incident.Unlike common wallet theft attacks, this scam did not involve phishing links, spoofed domains, or malicious authorization prompts. Victims chose the tutorials themselves, copied the code, deployed the contracts, and funded them from their own wallets, with each step authorized by the victims themselves. As a result, wallet security warnings and phishing blacklists could not be triggered. TRM discovered nine nearly identical YouTube tutorials disguised as different creators, using AI-generated virtual hosts and voiceovers, promising to build fully automated crypto trading bots with Claude, and guiding victims to a compiler website controlled by the operators, some of which mimicked the commonly used Remix development environment.In one variant analyzed by TRM, a backend script would discard the source code pasted by the victims and retrieve another contract from the operator's server, with the clean code displayed on the screen never being on-chain. The replaced contract accepted deposits and transferred any balance over 0.05 ETH to the operators when the victims pressed Start or Withdraw, with no arbitrage logic or AI functionality included in the contract.

On September 14, Aave Labs released an ARFC on the Aave governance forum, seeking approval to deploy a new Aave V4 Isolated Hub and Spoke to integrate institutional custody collateral as collateral for stablecoin loans. Institutional borrowers will deposit collateral with Anchorage and maintain custody during the loan period, with the custody balance represented on-chain by non-transferable custody collateral tokens CoCT, minted and burned by CustodySync designed by Chainlink.Borrowers will stake CoCT on the Spoke and withdraw stablecoins from the Isolated Hub. The entire loan lifecycle, including liquidation, is synchronized between the custodian and Aave through Chainlink infrastructure. The proposal is limited to a single Isolated Hub and a single Spoke governed by the Aave DAO, without altering existing Hubs, Spokes, or reserves. The underlying assets will always remain in custody, with Anchorage holding the assets as the custodian and acting as the counterparty for account control protocols; Chainlink does not hold the assets.CoCT is a restricted transfer ERC-20, only allowing Hub, Spoke, and CustodySync, with minting and burning exclusive to CustodySync, and each borrower's position corresponding to a contract. The initial plan is to launch a CoCT for BTC held in custody by Anchorage. The next steps involve ARFC discussions, and if supported, it will proceed to Snapshot, followed by submitting the final parameters for AIP.

Elon Musk stated that the Starlink V3 constellation will begin deployment this month, and the bandwidth ultimately provided will exceed more than 100 times that of the current constellation of 11,000 satellites.

On September 13, Derive forum user domrom published a DIP proposal to deploy and launch Derive V3 (a zkVM program settled on the Ethereum mainnet), migrating all V2 positions and balances to the V3 genesis state, transferring bridge funds to L1, and shutting down Derive Chain after the migration is complete.The proposal states that as of September 7, 2026, Derive accounts for approximately 95% of the on-chain options premium trading volume over the previous 30 days, with open contracts totaling about $2 billion. V3 is a zero-knowledge exchange, where the state transitions of the matching engine and sequencer are executed in zkVM and verified on Ethereum L1, with user funds held in L1 contracts, aiming for L2Beat Stage 1. The migration is not a redeposit; it will generate the genesis state based on a snapshot of Derive Chain, with stDRV deployed to the Ethereum mainnet and DRV OFT connected to Robinhood Chain.The timeline will be announced at least 14 days in advance after approval; bridging will be frozen before migration, trading will be paused, and a snapshot will be taken after settlement, followed by the resumption of trading. Rewards can be claimed on Optimism until February 1, 2027.

Elon Musk stated that he is confident that SpaceX will deploy the NVIDIA VR NLV72 artificial intelligence computer in space next year.
