PANews September 1 news: According to Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas, iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) has about 2%–3% of its net inflows coming from investors moving their Bitcoin from self-custody to the BlackRock ETF. He said that if investors mainly value Bitcoin’s “inflation hedge / protection against currency devaluation” characteristics, then ETFs are becoming a more attractive way to hold it compared with self-custody wallets; while “die-hard” Bitcoin holders who care about its “censorship resistance” find it difficult to accept holding Bitcoin via ETFs. Balchunas believes that as IBIT’s overall subscription volume grows, the share of this self-custody migration may continue to increase in the future.

PANews September 1 news: The startup Abliteration.ai announced the launch of a new model, “abliterated-model-large-v2”. Based on GLM-5.3, which ranked third on the Terminal-Bench 4.0, the company claims that its network defense/offense exploitation capabilities are improved by about 2x compared with version 5.2. The official says that by removing the “refusal” direction in the model’s activation at the weight level, it preserves capabilities in coding, network security, and agent functions—making it suitable for complete execution of authorized attack chains in offensive cybersecurity, AI red-team assessments, agent testing, and trust-and-safety scenarios. The model is hosted in the United States, uses FP8 precision, supports a 1-million context window, and promises not to retain input and output prompts. It is currently accessible through the API for public use.

PANews September 1 report: During his G20 speech, Musk said that global AI development has hit a power bottleneck. He expects that by 2027, power demand related to AI chips will show a shortfall of at least 15 gigawatts. He stated that annual growth in AI chip production capacity is about 40%–50%, while annual growth in power supply outside China is only about 10%–20%, and the gap between the curves will form a key constraint. Musk noted that companies such as Google and Anthropic have already leased computing capacity from SpaceX, because SpaceX is building its own power plants to expand capacity quickly. He believes that electricity is sufficient in China, but is constrained by GPU export controls; meanwhile, other countries could capture new growth opportunities by building power at scale and hosting AI data centers, using taxes and fees to obtain new growth points.

Bessent said the G20 ministers want to achieve higher growth, but it is still unclear whether countries will take the necessary measures.

PANews September 1 news: According to reports from the Nanfang Finance Media Group, the international cooperation pilot in the national data sector in Guangzhou was launched in Nansha. Centered on Nansha as a core carrying area, Guangzhou is building a four-in-one international data cooperation system of “infrastructure–rules–carriers–ecosystem” to promote data collaboration among Guangdong, Hong Kong, and Macao. At the meeting, two business models were released: “data processing plants” and “Token going global.” Through localized deployment of large models and physical isolation of server racks, “external data processed internally” (“外数中算”) is achieved. A “token loan” (“词元贷”) was also introduced, with credit extended based on token output and computing power contracts. The Guangzhou Data Exchange signed international data cooperation agreements with Xinhua Holdings, Singapore YanDe Group, and others. DianDian Digital Technology announced that it will build a 万PAI intelligent computing cluster in Nansha with total investment exceeding 4 billion yuan and planned computing capacity of 10,000P. The People’s Congress of Nansha District also simultaneously issued a decision on smart city development to provide legal support for the “international data port” (“国际数港”).

PA News September 1, according to a report by The Information, informed sources said that in recent weeks, Elon Musk has made changes to the team responsible for building SpaceX's data centers. He replaced multiple executives and brought in executives from the rocket and satellite internet businesses to strengthen the development of data center infrastructure. Two informed sources said this data center reorganization was prompted by some civil engineering issues and ongoing reliability problems at SpaceX AI's existing data center facilities in Tennessee and Mississippi. In the early stages of building AI infrastructure, SpaceX AI rushed to complete these data centers quickly, causing some facilities to operate for months without backup cooling and power systems. Informed sources said this increases the risk of system downtime.

PANews September 1 report: According to “Yu Jin,” today Big Brother Maji launched the Meme token “TAIWAN” on the Robinhood Chain, and in the evening used about 16,700 USDC to buy approximately 27.56 million TAIWAN tokens, with a purchase value of about $600,000. Yu Jin said it does not recommend getting involved in this scheme, citing reasons including that Big Brother Maji has previously issued Meme tokens multiple times; in 2024, he issued a Meme coin for his own dog, Bobaoppa, raising about 220,000 SOL (around $40 million) but only injecting about 60,000 SOL into the pool, keeping the rest for personal use, and setting an approximately 8.75% transaction tax. The token is now essentially worthless, with its value having basically dropped to zero.

PANews September 1 news: Injective officially issued a statement saying that yesterday’s coordinated accelerated network upgrade took longer than expected. However, throughout the entire process, the Injective blockchain and the INJ assets remained secure; the protocol and consensus were not breached, and users’ and staked funds were not affected. Some validators were temporarily “jailed” because they did not complete the upgrade within the specified window, causing the network’s displayed staked amount to temporarily decline. Some exchanges also paused deposits and withdrawals to update nodes. There was no loss of staked INJ. The upgrade was prompted by exploitation of a small amount of the ecosystem’s binary options market. The attack was limited to the related application and did not touch the Injective chain itself. The team has patched the relevant attack vectors and will introduce stronger constraints, real-time monitoring, and security protection mechanisms.

PANews September 1 news: According to The Block, Hyperliquid’s block trade layer Silhouette has launched an RFQ (request for quote) system on the mainnet, with the first batch supporting Payward’s tokenized equities framework xStocks. The system allows traders to request quotes for any supported xStock; market makers compete with bids, and the final trade orders are settled on-chain and are not subject to time constraints or per-transaction size limits. With the RFQ mechanism, xStocks can match trades without requiring a standalone order book. After token activity reaches sufficient levels, the assets can be migrated to the independent HyperCore market. Since xStocks went live in June 2025, it has served more than 200,000 holders and cumulative trading volume has exceeded $40 billion, including nearly $20 billion settled on-chain. In the current tokenized equities market of about $2.53 billion, it accounts for around $620 million, making it the third-largest issuer.
