The change would add European Union debt obligations to the list of foreign government securities exempted for futures marketing and trading.　　Ad　　Ad　　SEC Seeks to Add EU Debt to Rule 3a12-8　　The proposed amendment would add debt issued by the European Union to Rule 3a12-8.

It was essential at the time, and we introduced it with much fanfare. But, as with other legacies of crises past, I believe

Chelsea FC gets a stablecoin sponsor after UK FCA warning to clubs

Circle, the issuer behind the USDC stablecoin, will be the latest sponsor for the Chelsea Football Club just months after the UKs financial watchdog warned about “questionable sponsorship deals with unauthorized financial firms,” including crypto companies.　　In a Friday announcement, Circle said its name and USDC would appear on jerseys for Chelsea FC players in the 2026/2027 season. The partnership deal between the football club and the digital asset company came about three months after the UKs Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) said it had sent warning letters to clubs in the Premier League, potentially including Chelsea.　　The letters concerned “unauthorized” companies, including crypto businesses, using sponsorship deals to target football fans, potentially breaching UK financial services laws.　　“Millions of football fans trust their club‘s badge,” said Lucy Castledine, the FCA’s director of consumer investments. “Clubs should not let unauthorised financial firms exploit that loyalty by putting potentially dodgy products in front of millions of fans.”　　Circle UK Trading Limited, the companys UK arm, has been listed as a company authorized under the FCA to provide certain financial services to residents since 2018. Stablecoins like USDC are also legal to use in the country, though lawmakers are working to establish a comprehensive regulatory framework for

US Cities Eye AI Data Center Limits as Study Flags Water Risks

In briefCities in Texas, North Carolina, Kentucky, and New Jersey have pursued bans or moratoriums on data centers.Power plants serving data centers in seven states withdraw about 3.4 trillion gallons of freshwater annually.At least 75 proposed projects worth about $130 billion faced local opposition in early 2026.　　Cities across the U.S. are restricting AI data center development as communities raise concerns about water supplies, electricity costs, and land use.　　Austin, Texas, became the latest city to act Thursday, when its City Council voted unanimously to begin drafting rules that could restrict or exclude new data centers.　　Myriad: How many days will Claude go down？ Click to make your prediction.　　The vote followed a Ceres study examining water withdrawn by power plants serving data centers in Virginia, Texas, California, Illinois, Georgia, Ohio, and Arizona. The seven states host about half of the nations data centers.　　Those plants withdraw about 3.4 trillion gallons of freshwater annually, equal to 10.4 million acre-feet. That exceeds Californias average annual urban water demand of 8 million acre-feet and is about 12 times the combined annual water use of Los Angeles, Phoenix, and Washington, D.C., according to the study.　　“Overall, we saw that 66% of the power plants that use water in those

After selling all its Bitcoin to pay off debt, AI firm tries to rebuild $827 million treasury from scratch

Genius Group, an AI-powered education company that previously used Bitcoin as a treasury asset, has proposed a $12.5 million perpetual preferred offering to restart a Bitcoin treasury it says should reach $827 million by fiscal 2031. The opening raise would cover just 1.51% of that target, leaving at least $814.5 million still to finance before any non-Bitcoin allocations.　　Related Asset Bitcoin #1 BTC · $77,485.44 24-hour change: down 3.20% 24H Down 3.20% 7D Up 0.71% 30D Up 20.32%　　Even that comparison overstates how much of the first raise could reach Bitcoin. Genius said the proceeds would be divided among its Bitcoin treasury, an AI portfolio and a dollar reserve equal to about 18 months of preferred dividends. The company has not set the dividend rate or allocation percentages, so the initial Bitcoin purchase cannot yet be calculated.　　Genius Group Bitcoin plan: What the first raise would fund　　Genius expects the proposed security to be non-convertible and to pay a variable rate monthly. But Genius has not determined the issue price, final size, timing, structure or exchange listing. Those terms remain subject to board approval, securities rules and market conditions.　　Because the instrument would not dilute common shares at issuance, the risk shifts to preferred-stock obligations.

CLARITY Act is a national security bill, former US defense secretary says

Former U.S. Defense Secretary Mark Esper has urged the Senate to pass the CLARITY Act before its Sept. 15 procedural vote, arguing that delayed crypto rules could weaken U.S. financial and national security.　　SummaryMark Esper said regulated U.S. crypto markets would improve oversight of digital asset transactions.The Senates Sept. 15 cloture vote requires 60 votes to advance the bill.House lawmakers approved the CLARITY Act by a 294–134 vote in July 2025.Stablecoin rewards, political ethics, and decentralized finance remain central points of dispute.　　The Financial Times published Espers policy argument on Aug. 7, with the former defense secretary describing the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act as “not merely a financial services bill” but also a “national security bill.”　　Esper, who led the Pentagon from 2019 to 2020, said U.S. power relies partly on the dollar and the payment networks that carry it around the world. Clear rules for digital assets, he argued, would help preserve Washingtons view into financial activity while supporting sanctions enforcement.　　When crypto companies and transactions move through offshore venues with weaker controls, Esper said U.S. agencies lose some of their ability to follow funds and act against illicit networks. He also warned that delays in Washington give China more time to

More than $1.31 billion was lost across 344 security incidents in the first half of 2026, with code vulnerabilities remaining the industrys most common attack category.　　Axelar leaves Ripple with 10,000 lines it no longer wants　　The original case for keeping XChainBridge (XLS-38) weakened after Ripple turned to Axelar for the XRPL EVM Sidechain and broader demand for the native bridge failed to materialize.　　XLS-38 was designed to let assets move between XRPL and connected sidechains through witness servers that observe transactions and attest to activity across networks. The architecture was intended to support private, permissioned, and experimental sidechains, while also providing a bridge between XRPL mainnet and the EVM Sidechain.　　Ripple ultimately chose Axelar for the EVM Sidechain after evaluating security, user experience, decentralization, and the operational demands of maintaining a bridge.　　The company said the XLS-38 witness model carried
