River Financial hat beschlossen, Blockstream Services Canada wegen ausstehender Beträge aus einem Mining-Hosting-Vertrag zu verklagen. Insgesamt handelt es sich um rund 6,7 Millionen US-Dollar, nachdem sie den Vertrag Ende 2024 gekündigt hatten. Es gab eine Beendigungsvereinbarung, die im Voraus gezahlte Gebühren sowie eine Vertragsstrafe für den frühen Ausstieg abdeckte, mit monatlichen Zahlungen, die im nächsten Jahr beginnen sollten.

Zunächst wurden Zahlungen geleistet, dann aber etwa im März 2026 eingestellt. River reichte in Bundesgericht in Nordkalifornien Klage ein, sobald klar wurde, dass nichts mehr nachkommen würde. Es wirkt so, als sei die Angelegenheit chaotischer geworden, als erwartet, nachdem Details an die Öffentlichkeit gelangt sind.

Blockstream Corp selbst sagt, sie hätten den US- und Kanada-Mining-Bereich ausgegliedert, sodass sie vermutlich nicht die Beklagten hier sind. Die Person, die für die kanadische Gesellschaft unterzeichnet hat, hat bereits eine Verurteilung wegen Betrugs vorzuweisen, was noch eine weitere Ebene hinzufügt. Ein Richter am Bezirksgericht hatte sich bereits für befangen erklärt und der Fall wurde neu zugeteilt. Außerdem gab es vor nicht allzu langer Zeit einen großen Verstoß im Liquid Network. Ich bin noch nicht ganz sicher, wie all diese einzelnen Punkte bisher zusammenpassen. Hosting-Deals funktionieren nur, wenn die Gegenseite solide ist. Die Geldsumme taucht immer wieder auf, aber bislang ist noch nichts abschließend geklärt.

Ethereum has a big upgrade lined up called Glamsterdam.
The foundation set it for the Sepolia testnet on October 6 2026 at that specific epoch. It comes after Fusaka and some researchers think it ranks among the larger forks they have done so far.

It pulls together stuff from Amsterdam on the execution side and Gloas on the consensus side. The idea is to get the main layer moving faster while keeping costs down and making it hold up better over time.

One part removes the need for outside services that handle block building. Builders just lock in what they offer and the system handles payments without extra trust steps. Validators also get a bit more room to check things through.

Another change lets transactions list the data they touch ahead of time. That opens the door to running some of them side by side instead of one after another. It looks like it could lift how much the chain handles at once and might speed up getting new nodes caught up too.

Gas costs are shifting as well so they line up more closely with real work on execution and keeping the state from ballooning. That should help slow down unnecessary growth in the database.

Testing starts on Sepolia then moves to Hoodi before any mainnet push which is aimed at late 2026. Node operators will need to update both types of clients ahead of time or it will not go smoothly.

After the Hegota fork next year this could be the last regular style upgrade before things move toward more advanced proof systems. It seems unclear though whether the base layer will end up matching the speed of its own layer twos in the

*🇰🇷 South Korea Says: "Law First, Tax Later" — Crypto Tax on Edge Again*

The crypto tax drama in South Korea is back. And this time, it's coming from INSIDE the ruling party.

*What happened:*

Senior lawmaker *Rep. Min Byung-duk* (DPK Policy Committee) yesterday at EastPoint Seoul 2026 said:

> "It's not right to start taxation when the basic law has yet to be established."

He wants the *22% crypto tax* scheduled for *Jan 1, 2027* to be DELAYED until after the *Digital Asset Basic Act* passes. f154

*Why he says the system isn't ready:*

1. *Invisible Overseas Profits:* Korea can't track money on Binance, Bybit etc. The global data-sharing system *CARF* first exchange only starts in 2027-2028. UAE, Seychelles, HK, Singapore - where most Korean traders use - won't share until 2028, US until 2029. So only domestic traders would get taxed.
2. *Taxed even when you lose:* No loss carryforward system. You could profit 10M won one year, lose 10M next year, still pay tax on first year.
3. *No acquisition cost rule:* How to calculate your buy price? Still unclear. 7873

*The Split:*
- *Ruling party + Opposition:* Both now want delay. Opposition even proposed pushing it to *2030*.
- *Finance Minister Lee Hyoung-il:* Says "Go ahead as planned." Claims 85% of investors hold less than 5M won ($3,670) so with 2.5M won basic deduction, most pay nothing. f154

A petition to delay has already crossed *50,000 signatures* for parliamentary review.

*My Take:* This is the 4th delay attempt. Korea wants to tax crypto like stocks (20% + 2% local = 22% over 2.5M won gain) but without stock-like rules for tracking and losses, it will just push traders offshore.

Is Korea protecting investors or just not ready?

*🤖 AI is Leaving the Screen and Entering the Real World — But Humans Must Stay in Control*

Gecko Robotics CEO *Jake Loosararian* just dropped a critical warning in his Bloomberg / CNBC interview yesterday:

> "The next phase of AI safety is keeping humans in control as autonomous systems move into the physical world."

*The Big Move:*

Gecko is partnering with *Nvidia* to build an *Open Agent Safety Platform* — a system to set hard boundaries around AI agents operating robots, drones, and autonomous vehicles in:

🔧 Industrial factories
🛡️ Military & defense settings
🏭 Critical infrastructure

*His Key Message:*
- Physical AI is here — not just chatbots anymore
- AI agents will operate real machines that can cause real-world damage
- Safety & Speed DON'T have to be enemies — we can deploy fast AND safe if we build the right guardrails

This comes as other AI leaders like Sam Altman & Dario Amodei also warned the UN Security Council last week: "Humans could lose control of the future to AI if we move too fast."

The debate is shifting: From _what AI says_ to _what AI DOES_.

Do you think humans can stay in control once robots run on AI?

> _"Blockchain can fundamentally change how securities are traded and settled, moving from fixed market hours and multi-day settlement toward markets that can operate 24/7, 365 days a year, with near-instant settlement."_ 1486

*Why it matters:*
