Circle officially announced that its euro stablecoin EURC has surpassed a circulation of 400 million euros, becoming an important growth node in the on-chain financial ecosystem of the Eurozone. Circle stated that the supply of EURC has increased by over 100% in the past year, as the demand for compliant stablecoins has risen from trading platforms, payment networks, and institutional businesses, moving EURC from the experimental phase to practical application. EURC was first launched on Ethereum in June 2022 and has since expanded to multiple blockchains including Avalanche, Stellar, Solana, and Base.As of the end of 2024, EURC has covered five chains, with a circulation scale of approximately 80 million euros, and continues to grow. Currently, EURC has been launched on several mainstream trading platforms such as Bitpanda, Bitstamp, Bybit, Coinbase, and Kraken, supporting EURC/EUR and EURC/USD trading pairs, further enhancing on-chain liquidity for euros. Circle stated that the application scenarios for EURC are expanding from trading to payments, settlements, and institutional fund management. Currently, fiat withdrawal and recharge service providers such as Mercuryo, MoonPay, Ramp, and Transak have supported users to directly access digital assets using euros, and institutional custody and settlement platforms such as Cobo, Copper, and Fireblocks have also integrated EURC.In addition, both Visa and Mastercard have previously expanded their support for EURC's settlement capabilities, making it available for cross-border payments, card payment settlements, and enterprise-level fund circulation scenarios. With the full implementation of the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA), EURC operates under the electronic money token (EMT) standard, issued by Circle's French electronic money institution and regulated by the French Prudential Supervision and Resolution Authority (ACPR). The reserve assets of EURC are completely isolated from Circle's corporate funds and are regularly audited and confirmed by independent third parties.As of January 2026, the total supply of global stablecoins is approximately 300 billion dollars. Although dollar stablecoins still dominate, euro stablecoins have become the second largest category. The market size of euro stablecoins has grown from about 400 million euros in June 2025 to about 650 million euros in June 2026, with EURC maintaining a leading position. Circle stated that despite the growth of EURC, euro stablecoins are still in the early stages compared to the M2 money supply of over 16 trillion euros in the Eurozone, and there is still significant room for growth in real-time settlements, cross-border payments, and enterprise financial infrastructure in the future.

According to three informed sources, in mid-May, when U.S. negotiators attempted to reach an agreement to end the war with Iran, they encountered a problem: they could not determine whether the Iranian representatives across the negotiating table truly represented the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, which holds significant influence in the country. The report stated that, as a result, officials from the Trump administration took an unusual approach—bypassing the Iranian negotiating representatives and directly contacting senior leaders of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.The U.S. chose Nechirvan Barzani, the President of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, to handle this secret communication channel. He possesses a rare advantage: he has gained the trust of both the U.S. and the leadership of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. This incident highlights that one of the significant reasons for the difficulties in U.S.-Iran negotiations is Washington's inability to determine who truly holds decision-making power in Iran. The U.S. and Iran did eventually reach a memorandum of understanding, but it quickly fell apart.

Matthew Sigel, the Head of Digital Asset Research at VanEck, stated that if the U.S. CLARITY Act is passed, it will trigger "an enormous relief rally" in L1 tokens.Sigel's remarks focus on the potential impact of regulatory progress on native assets of public chains.

According to GMGN data, the meme coin "Behemoth" on the BSC chain briefly surpassed a market cap of 2.7 million USD, currently reported at 1.04 million USD, with a 24H increase of 8251%. Meme coin prices are highly volatile, and investors should participate with caution.Previously, a developer announced the completion of the first real on-chain 4-bit processor (CPU) on the BNB Chain, which consists of 2251 logic gates, including NAND gates and flip-flops, and has been verified cycle by cycle. Its performance specifications are comparable to the 1971 Intel 4004 processor. This on-chain CPU is named "Behemoth" and has successfully run Fibonacci sequence calculations: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13. Due to the processor's operating rhythm being synchronized with the BNB Chain's block generation, it executes a cycle every 0.45 seconds, with a current operating frequency of about 2.22Hz, referred to by the developer as "possibly the slowest CPU in the universe."The developer stated that in the future, a complete protocol will be made public, allowing anyone to create their own on-chain processors based on this protocol, and supporting inter-calls between processors to build more complex on-chain computing systems in a "building block" manner. Regarding this project, Binance co-founder CZ responded to inquiries about its practical application scenarios: "What is the use case?" which sparked community discussions.

Galaxy Research analyst Alex Thorn pointed out that as the likelihood of the CLARITY Act passing in 2026 significantly decreases, the U.S. SEC and CFTC are intensifying independent cryptocurrency regulatory actions. The bill previously gained bipartisan support in the Senate Banking Committee but has stalled due to unresolved ethical rules for officials regarding cryptocurrency, pressure from community banks leading to some Republican positions softening, and disputes over developer protection clauses. The Senate Majority Leader failed to push for a vote before the August recess, and the September session is only about two to three weeks long, leading Galaxy to lower the probability to 10%.On the SEC side, the originally planned "Reg Crypto" exemption (which provides a new path for primary issuance of crypto assets) and "Innovation Exemption" (which allows tokenized securities to trade in DeFi secondary markets) have been postponed multiple times. It is reported that the agency had retreated due to opposition from the traditional securities industry, but may restart due to the bleak outlook of the bill, with text expected to be released in the coming weeks to months. These measures are likely to be time-limited sandboxes that will face litigation and require years to refine. The CFTC is actively advocating for jurisdiction over prediction market contracts, responding to the New York Attorney General's attempt to issue an emergency order to ban Kalshi event contracts nationwide, continuing the tug-of-war over federal and state jurisdiction regarding prediction markets.Thorn believes that while the bill covers a comprehensive framework including registration licensing, compliance monitoring, and consumer protection, it is currently more dominated by political factors. SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce's planned departure in November also adds urgency to the advancement of the rules. The related actions aim to fill the legislative vacuum but may ultimately undergo a lengthy judicial and rule-making process.

Citigroup CEO Jane Fraser stated that although she remains concerned about how the CLARITY Act handles the rewards mechanism for stablecoins, overall, she hopes the bill will pass and believes it will benefit the financial system. Fraser indicated that Citigroup is still pushing for improvements to the bill.Fraser pointed out that if stablecoin platforms can offer rewards for user deposits, it may lead to a loss of deposits in traditional banks, thereby weakening banks' ability to provide loans and credit services in certain regions of the United States. Currently, the bill stipulates that platforms cannot offer rewards solely for users holding stablecoins, but they can provide rewards for trading and payment activities. This issue remains at the core of the controversy between the banking industry and the cryptocurrency sector as the bill progresses.
