Avalanche price nears $12 - Can the Helicon upgrade propel AVAX higher？

Avalanche [AVAX] experienced a price surge of 16.91% to $11.23 at press time, as the Helicon upgrade anticipation and stronger trading activity supported its breakout.　　The rally arrived one day before the scheduled Helicon upgrade on the 22nd of September, giving the expansion a clear fundamental catalyst. Additionally, the trading volume surged 29.88% to $1.4 billion, suggesting improved participation during the 24-hour move.　　Reportedly, the Helicon upgrade will reduce the staking unlock times from several weeks to only 48 hours. This flexibility could make staking more attractive to larger investors seeking easier access to capital.　　Meanwhile, the broader Layer 1 rotation also supported the price surge as capital returned toward key blockchain infrastructure tokens. AVAXs price advance aligned with both sector rotation and expectations surrounding a major network upgrade.　　In fact, the timing strengthened the rallys fundamental backdrop instead of leaving the price appreciation dependent solely on speculative activity.　　Whales take AVAX beyond exchanges　　Furthermore, large AVAX movements followed the rally as investors repositioned substantial capital across on-chain markets and exchanges. Reportedly, more than $3.5 million in AVAX was moved across Tier-1 exchanges within 30 minutes.　　Upbit moved 140,000 AVAX, valued roughly at $1.59 million, across four different wallets, while Binance internally shifted 148,600 AVAX, worth nearly

One wallet links $1.55 million FetchAI theft to massive 408.5 million NTX mint

A coordinated attack drained 8.7 million FET and used a compromised NuNet minter key to create 408.5 million NTX.　　Related Asset Artificial Superintelligence Alliance #93 FET · $0.20 24-hour change: up 11.94% Loading price history… 24H Up 11.94% 7D Up 14.96% 30D Up 19.98%　　The Sept. 19 attack emptied the Ethereum-side conversion contract used by SingularityNETs bridge, removing 8,721,530 FET worth about $1.55 million at the time. Twenty-nine minutes later, a stolen NuNet minter created 408.5 million NTX and sent the tokens to the same receiving wallet, according to an on-chain forensic report prepared by Athena.　　Fetch.ai subsequently paused AGIX-to-FET conversions and its Ethereum-side bridge contract as a precaution.

ECB launches Pontes to settle tokenized assets without stablecoins

The European Central Bank (ECB) launched Pontes, a system that allows financial institutions to settle wholesale tokenized asset transactions in central bank money, providing an alternative to private settlement assets such as stablecoins.　　The ECB announced Pontes‘ launch on Monday as part of the Eurosystem’s strategy for tokenized finance. The system initially offers a core set of services, with full implementation expected by 2028.　　Tokenization represents assets as digital tokens, typically on distributed ledger technology (DLT) networks. The ECB said it could make wholesale transactions faster and more efficient by combining issuance, trading, settlement, custody and servicing on a single platform while enabling automation through smart contracts.　　“Pontes brings the stability and trust of central bank money to the European tokenised finance ecosystem,” ECB Executive Board member Piero Cipollone said. “It will give an important advantage to help it scale.”　　Pontes builds on the Eurosystems 2024 tests of settling DLT-based transactions in central bank money. The ECB said participants identified access to a risk-free settlement asset as crucial for wider adoption of tokenized finance.　　The Eurosystem is also developing Appia, a complementary initiative exploring an integrated ecosystem for DLT-based financial services, with a blueprint expected by 2028.　　Related: EU finance groups push to remove tokenized securities
