South Korea plans to launch a new securities market in mid-November, and the STO market is at a critical turning point

Comparatively, the Korea Exchange (KRX) plans to launch a new securities market on November 16. At that time, assets such as art, real estate, and music copyright will be traded like stocks through securities accounts. According to reports, the Korea Exchange is currently advancing the construction of relevant trading systems and preparations for market participants, and will conduct simulated trading for 6 weeks from October 6 to November 13. The official opening time may be adjusted according to the financial supervisory authority's approval process for listed products. After the market opens, investors can trade through securities company accounts, and the trading time is consistent with the stock market. Analysts believe that the securities token issuance (STO) industry in the Korean market is already at an important turning point. Although new securities listed and traded in November will be temporarily issued and registered using traditional electronic securities methods, subsequent tokenized securities based on blockchain distributed ledger issuance and management will gradually be implemented after the relevant laws are officially implemented in February 2027.

Base App is suspected to have taken down Base Co-Creation Jesse

Comparative news. According to market news, Base App's official tweet is suspected to have taken advantage of Jesse, a number of cryptographic users posted screenshots of the robot and sparked discussion. This happened after Jesse's strategy changed in mid-July. At the time, Jesse publicly acknowledged that Base had failed to bet on on-chain social networking and creators' tokens, and handed over the leadership of the Base App to Coinbase, which was taken over by Cobie (Jordan Fish), and focused on building the Base Chain himself to promote it as a global financial blockchain.

FT: The economy was under pressure in the Trump era, oil prices rose at the same time as mortgage interest rates, and US debt surpassed $40 trillion

Comparing news, the Financial Times article said that the Trump administration's economic policy is facing multiple pressures: US federal debt has surpassed 40 trillion US dollars, long-term US bond yields have risen to a 19-year high, the Iran war has driven up energy prices, and mortgage interest rates have continued to rise. This week, the US long-term treasury bond market experienced sharp fluctuations. Investors are driving long-term US bond yields higher due to concerns about the expansion of government borrowing and the risk of inflation brought about by the war. US Treasury Secretary Bezent then announced an expansion of the long-term treasury bond repurchase program and plans to introduce measures to reduce the fiscal deficit, but the market response was limited, and the US dollar weakened. According to the data, the size of the US government debt surpassed 40 trillion US dollars for the first time this week, and the growth rate of federal spending reached the fastest level since the pandemic. The US fiscal deficit fell only slightly to 5.8% of GDP in FY2025, and Trump's tax cuts are expected to further increase fiscal pressure in the future. On the energy side, the US-Iran conflict is driving up fuel prices in the US. The price of gasoline rose by about 40% from before the war, to $4.11 per gallon; the price of diesel rose to $5.58 per gallon. Rising energy costs have weakened Trump's previous policy goals of reducing living costs and energy prices. The housing market was also under pressure, and interest rates on 30-year US mortgages rose to 6.65%, up from 5.98% before the war broke out. Meanwhile, consumer inflation in the US rose to a three-year high of 4.2% in May and fell back to 3.4% in July, but Federal Reserve officials are still worried that inflationary pressure continues. Although the US economy is still supported by consumer spending and AI infrastructure investment by big tech companies, the growth rate is below the government's previous target. The annualized growth rate of US GDP in the second quarter of 2026 was about 1.5%, lower than the previously proposed growth forecast of 3% or more. Market participants believe that high debt, high financing costs, and rising energy prices are weakening consumer confidence and may become important political pressures facing the Trump administration. Bessent said that the US is still expected to improve its fiscal situation through economic growth.

Daily AI · Crypto · Macro · Market Highlights, Bitpush helps you set priorities ↓ AI · News [Anthropic plans to include anti-AI sentiment as the main risk factor in the prospectus]. According to CNBC, Anthropic is expected to list the public's negative sentiment about artificial intelligence and data centers as a risk factor in the IPO prospectus to be released in the next few weeks. According to people familiar with the matter, Anthropic recently held a pre-listing “market trial” meeting with bankers and investors. Investors focused on competitive pressure, the impact of open source models on profit margins, and the risks that may be brought about by a slowdown in data center construction. Anthropic is currently valued at close to $1 trillion in the private equity market and is preparing to hit a major IPO. However, as Americans' concerns about AI replacing employment and data center expansion heat up, the related backlash sentiment is becoming a new challenge facing the company's listing. The company has previously achieved an annualized revenue operating rate of more than 65 billion US dollars.

Of these, about 100 jobs in the Vision Pro department have been abolished, and about 100 other positions in the Siri and software teams have been cut. The move is part of the company's efforts to focus resources on new devices and artificial intelligence.

Apple admitted in a statement that the company is making adjustments to some teams “to drive business development and provide the best experience for users.” [Castle Securities: Over 80% of the overall risk in the Situational Awareness Fund portfolio has been divested] According to the Financial Times, Castle Securities founder Ken Griffin responded to the company's acquisition of Situational Awareness assets under Leopold (Leopold) in a letter to clients on Friday.

Dalio's latest warning: the US debt crisis may explode within three years. The antidote is...

Author: Ray Dalio, founder of Qiaoshui Foundation Original title: How Countries Go Broke: The Dynamic Behind What is Incurable Now Compiled and organized by: bitPushNews In “How Countries Go Bankrupt: The Big Cycle,” I detailed an analytical framework to describe dynamic processes that are highly likely to occur due to unsustainable imbalances between debt supply and demand. Recently, three things happened at the same time: 1) The Japanese government sold part of its US Treasury holdings to return capital to Japan to support the yen and the Japanese capital market, and reduce exposure to US Treasury bonds while avoiding being forced to raise interest rates beyond its wishes in order to support the yen; 2) US bond yields hit new highs under long-term leadership, while the dollar weakened. The reasons include not only the current and anticipated supply of huge debt, but also weak demand for US bonds; 3) Treasury Secretary Bessent announced this week that the US Treasury would buy US Treasury bonds and be able to buy other US Treasury bonds The amount of capital used is limited, and many people ask me : Do these events fit the classic template I set out in my book? The answer is yes. To anticipate what might happen next, let's first review this operating mechanism. The operating mechanism explains in detail that the central government's debt dynamics are the same principles as the debt dynamics of individuals or companies. The only difference is that the central government has a central bank that can print money (this will depreciate the currency), and it can obtain funds from the public through taxation. Because of this, if you imagine how the debt dynamic would work if you or the business you run could print money, or get capital from people through taxation — then you can understand this process. But remember, your goal is for the entire system to work well, not only for yourself, but for all citizens. In my opinion, the credit/market system is like the human body's circulatory system, delivering nutrients to every corner that makes up the market and economy. If credit is used effectively, it can generate productivity and income to repay debt and interest on debt, which is a healthy state of affairs. However, if credit is not properly used to generate sufficient income to repay debts and interest, debt payments will continue to pile up like plaques in blood vessels, squeezing other expenses. When debt payments become very large, debt repayment problems arise, and eventually evolve into debt rollover problems — because debt holders are unwilling to continue to roll over and instead want to sell. Naturally, this will lead to a shortage of demand and sell-off of debt instruments such as bonds; when demand is scarce relative to supply, it either causes a) interest rates to rise, thereby suppressing the market and economic downturn, or b) the central bank “prints money” and buys debt, which will reduce the value of the currency, thereby driving up inflation (compared to the original level). Banknote printing also artificially lowers interest rates and harms lenders' returns. Both options are bad. When debt sell-offs are too large and difficult to contain, and the central bank has already purchased large amounts of debt, rising interest rates can cause the central bank to lose money and damage its cash flow. If this continues, the central bank will fall into a situation where net assets are negative. When this situation became serious, the central government and central bank needed to borrow money to repay the principal and interest of the debt, while the central bank printed money to provide loans due to insufficient free market demand, so a self-reinforcing spiral between debt/banknote printing/inflation formed. In summary, the classic indicators to pay attention to are the following: the ratio of government debt payments to government revenue (which is like the amount of plaque in the circulatory system), the ratio of government debt sold to the demand for government debt (this is like a plaque falling off and causing a heart attack), and the amount of government debt purchased by the central bank to cover the gap between the demand for government debt and the supply of government debt to be sold (this is like the central bank applying a larger dose of liquidity/credit to mitigate liquidity shortages, and the central bank has a risk appetite for these debts). These indicators usually rise over a long cycle of decades — debt and debt payments continue to grow in relation to income — until this state of affairs cannot continue because: 1) debt repayment expenses unacceptably crowd out other expenses, 2) the supply of debt that must be purchased is too large, causing interest rates to rise sharply, leading to a sharp decline in the market and economy, or 3) central banks are unwilling to let interest rates rise and suffer bad market/economic consequences, so they print large amounts of money and buy large amounts of government debt to cover the demand gap, thereby making the value of the currency significant Decreased. Either way, the return on bonds will be poor until the money and debt eventually become cheap enough to attract demand, or the government can cheaply buy back or repay...

They all say stablecoins are suitable for cross-border payments; is it really faster and cheaper than Wise?

Author: Jonah Compiled by: Saoirse, Foresight News Original title: Do cross-border payments really need stablecoins? Everyone says stablecoins are better suited for cross-border payments. Is that really true? If the recipient of your transfer wants stablecoins themselves, then stablecoins are indeed an excellent cross-border solution. You can transfer money around the clock at almost zero cost and instant settlement. But the more difficult question, which is also the focus of this article, is the cross-currency scenario: what happens when one end inputs US dollars and the other end exports foreign currency (such as Mexican pesos). Most crypto industry opinion leaders will claim that stablecoins can fundamentally reduce the speed and cost of transfers in this scenario. However, people who are optimistic about stablecoins deliberately avoid the fact that fintech companies have already achieved low-cost, high-efficiency businesses of the same kind, and there is no need for stablecoins at all. So what problem do stablecoins solve? This article will sort out how the traditional agency banking system works, and also analyze the innovations made by modern fintech companies such as Wise to clarify the actual value of stablecoins. The proxy banking business assumes Alice, who is in the US, wants to send a peso to her friend Bob in Mexico. Both banks do not have branches in each other's countries, so payments cannot be completed directly. The two banks need to use a larger bank, or correspondent bank, to establish a connection. Alice's depositary bank holds funds in US dollars at this correspondent bank called GlobalBank; GlobalBank also holds pesos at BancomX Bank in Mexico. After Alice initiated the transfer, her bank withheld the funds in her account and issued instructions to GlobalBank. GlobalBank transfers $100 from the dollars stored by Alice Bank, completes the exchange according to its own exchange rate, earns the exchange rate spread, then tells BancomX to credit Bob's account and deduct its own processing fee. The entire process relies on the SWIFT system to coordinate information, and SWIFT itself also charges for messages. This underlying transfer mechanism is expensive and slow. The root cause is that all layers of intermediaries are profiting from it. In an ordinary consumer remittance scenario, the comprehensive cost of the agent banking system is about 15%, including transaction fees and foreign exchange spreads embedded in the exchange rate. In addition to this, a transfer usually takes 1 to 5 business days to complete, and each intermediary takes time to complete its own operation process. Modern fintech solutions In 2011, two friends in London had complementary financial needs: one person earned in euros but needed pounds to live in the local area; the other received a salary in pounds and had to repay a mortgage in euros to Estonia. As a result, they bypassed banks and paid each other locally: the British pound was deposited into the London account, the euro was deposited into the Estonian account, and the two funds did not flow across the border. This system later evolved into Wise. The two founders believe that this model of hedging and offsetting capital flows can be implemented on a large scale, and this model has indeed worked. Many other fintech companies have taken the same approach. Let's take another example of Alice sending money to Bob, this time using a service similar to Wise. Alice transferred dollars to the fintech company's US account; the company used its own peso funds stored in Mexico to complete the payment directly to Bob. The funds did not cross the border from beginning to end. Alice's perception of a cross-border transfer is essentially a financial institution that receives and withdraws money at the same time. Because of this, the user experience was almost instantaneous, and the fintech company needed to bear the asset liability risks associated with holding large amounts of foreign currency. In order not to touch the traditional banking system as much as possible, fintech companies will distort transactions. For example, if other users remit pesos overseas in reverse, fintech companies can internally hedge off the two capital flows. Once a currency's capital pool is seriously unbalanced, it is only necessary to seek help from the traditional banking system. At the bottom, fintech companies cobble together partner banks and various license resources, and local partners handle regions that cannot be covered by their own business. Under the premise of normal operation, this model is far superior to the traditional system. Wise only charges a small, publicly disclosed processing fee, using the actual mid-market exchange rate, no hidden exchange rate spread, and the comprehensive rate is only 0.52% (this value is mixed with some transfers in the same currency, and the foreign exchange rate is not disclosed separately). According to World Bank data, the average ratio of digital remittance services...
