[Update, 07:00 UTC, Sept. 30: This article was updated after Binance clarified that users can pay with more than 100 supported cryptocurrencies, while USDT is used as the backend settlement layer.]　　Binance Pay will allow eligible overseas users visiting Japan to spend more than 100 cryptocurrencies at the vast majority of PayPay-supported merchants starting Wednesday.　　The service will run through HIVEX, a payment interoperability framework that connects overseas QR payment services to PayPay-supported merchants in Japan.

It lists nine other overseas payment services supported through HIVEX, mainly from China, Hong Kong and Taiwan.　　Japan welcomed a record 42.7 million international visitors in 2025, according to the Japan Tourism Agency.

European stablecoin issuer AllUnity launches USD stablecoin USDAU

AllUnity is launching a new stablecoin pegged to the US dollar, expanding its digital asset lineup as dollar-pegged tokens continue to dominate the global stablecoin market.　　The new token, USDAU, will maintain a 1:1 peg to the US dollar through segregated reserves and debut on Ethereum, Solana, Base, Tempo, Arc and Polygon, AllUnity said in a Wednesday announcement shared with Cointelegraph.　　AllUnity, regulated under the European Union‘s Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA), already issues euro-backed EURAU, Swiss franc-backed CHFAU and Swedish krona-backed SEKAU stablecoins. CoinGecko measures EURAU’s market capitalization at roughly $400,000 and CHFAUs at about $45 million.　　The launch comes as European policymakers debate the implications of dollar stablecoin dominance. US dollar-pegged tokens account for more than 99% of the roughly $291 billion global stablecoin market by capitalization, according to CoinGecko.　　The European Central Bank warned in June that greater use in European tokenized finance could deepen dependence on the dollar and weaken the euros role.　　AllUnity CEO Alexander Höptner pushed back on the idea that the dollar itself is the central concern.　　“Europe‘s concern isn’t with the dollar, its with dollar liquidity flowing through offshore issuers with no European supervisor, no enforceable redemption rights and no visibility into their reserves,” Höptner told Cointelegraph.　　He said USDAU

Brazils Petrobras uses Cardano to track sustainable aviation fuel, renewable diesel

Brazilian state-controlled oil company Petrobras has developed two blockchain applications using Cardano to track sustainability data for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and its Diesel R renewable fuel.　　According to a Wednesday announcement from the Cardano Foundation, the first application, developed with PUC-Rios Ledger Labs, tokenizes environmental attributes associated with SAF into digital tokens designed to prevent the same claim from being used more than once.　　The application uses a Book-and-Claim model, which allows the environmental benefit to be separated from the physical fuel and assigned to an airline, company or passenger even if the SAF is used elsewhere.　　The tokens, known as CS-SAF, contain metadata aligned with the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA). Passengers can also claim CS-SAF tokens through an application and receive a certificate tied to their journey and associated environmental claim.Source: Cardano Foundation　　The second application creates digital checkpoints to track the production, transportation and use of Diesel R, Petrobras‘ renewable diesel fuel. The Cardano Foundation said the data could support Scope 3 reporting, which covers indirect emissions across a company’s value chain.　　The projects are part of an ongoing research and development collaboration that began in 2023 with blockchain education for Petrobras employees and expanded in 2025

Bitcoin Price Gives Up Gains After Short-Lived Pump to $85.5K

Bitcoin pumped above $85,500 on Wednesday morning following the release of lower-than-expected U.S. PCE inflation data for August—but a quick pullback erased most of the gains.　　Key TakeawaysBitcoin shot above $85,500 on Wednesday following lower-than-expected August PCE inflation data.Intraday volatility led to $55 million in short bets being liquidated within four hours.Analysts and chartists like Ted Pillows project a potential pull-back into the high $70,000s before a rally.　　PCE Data Triggers Intraday Volatility　　Bitcoins price briefly spiked to $85,500 on Wednesday before a sell-off nearly erased the gains, leaving the cryptocurrency marginally higher just hours before September comes to a close. The rally appeared to have been sparked by the release of U.S. inflation data, which showed slower-than-expected price increases in August.　　As shown on the daily chart, before its morning surge, bitcoins price fluctuated in the $83,000 to $83,500 range, continuing a pattern that emerged following its plunge to $82,555 on Monday. While it surpassed the $83,500 resistance a few times between Tuesday afternoon and the early hours of Sept. 30, bearish pressure dragged it back below the threshold each time.　　Moments before the personal consumption expenditures (PCE) data release, bitcoin reclaimed $83,500, reaching $83,700 around 8:20 a.m. EST.

UKs 2027 crypto rules let firms remove trust protection from Bitcoin lent for yield

UK crypto firms can now apply for authorization as of Sept. 30, bringing Bitcoin holders closer to a rulebook that will treat coins pledged as qualifying borrowing collateral differently from coins transferred into lending for yield. The distinction could matter when a platform fails: safeguarded assets and a contractual promise to return equivalent coins give customers different starting points for seeking recovery.　　Related Asset Bitcoin #1 BTC · $84,138.20 24-hour change: up 1.22% Loading price history… 24H Up 1.22% 7D Up 0.25% 30D Up 6.96%　　The Financial Conduct Authority now allows firms to apply for authorization or vary their permissions through its Connect system. But the safeguards in the rules it finalized June 30 are forthcoming, with the new regime expected to begin Oct. 25, 2027. An application today does not establish authorization or bring those protections into effect.　　The central distinction concerns what a platform is allowed to do with customer assets. Under the future rules, covered custody generally requires a safeguarding trust under CASS 17, the crypto custody chapter of the FCAs Client Assets Sourcebook. Retail collateral supporting an in-scope crypto borrowing service must remain safeguarded, with a narrow debt-discharge exception. A qualifying lending service can instead use an exemption from

Singapore crypto activity grows 55% as broader region contracts

Singapores crypto activity rose 55.4% to $284 billion in the year ended June 2026, bucking a regional contraction and regaining its position as the largest crypto economy in Central and Southeast Asia and Oceania (CSAO), according to Chainalysis.　　Much of the growth came from institutional platform activity, which increased 94% to $60 billion, concentrated among a small number of market makers, over-the-counter trading firms, and institutional brokerages. Chainalysis said the broader CSAO crypto economy contracted 6.8% over the same period.　　“The growth in Singapores institutional platform ecosystem was very concentrated and marked by mostly high-volume activity by existing platforms rather than the dynamic entry of new services,” Chainalysis told Cointelegraph.　　The findings come as Singapore has been working to tighten crypto regulation while supporting tokenization, stablecoins and digital-asset settlement.　　Total crypto economic activity in CSAO.

Concrete token launch hits Coinbase and OKX with controlled price auctions

Coinbase has placed the CT-USD trading pair into auction mode, giving traders at least 10 minutes to establish an opening price through limit orders only before continuous trading kicks off. The move lines up with the Concrete token launchon OKX the same day, where the CT/$USDT pair went live under a separate but similarly cautious rollout. Together, the two exchanges are running a coordinated debut for Concrete that leans heavily on controlled price discovery rather than letting the token trade freely from the first tick.　　Key takeawaysCoinbase set a minimum 10-minute auction window for CT-USD, accepting only limit orders with an “Allow Taker” designation.OKX ran a one-hour call auction for CT/$USDT from 09:00 to 10:00 UTC, then blocked market orders for five more minutes.Concrete describes itself as an institutional-grade on-chain asset management platform running on Ethereum, with contract address 0x0A092E544DA31150b439a1aAA1A3a2214a867F46.Coinbase used the identical auction-mode process for the CTR-USD pair back in May 2026.Continuous trading begins on both exchanges once their respective auction windows close.　　Coinbase Launches Concrete Token with Auction Mode　　Coinbases decision to route the Concrete token launch through auction mode signals that the exchange wants an orderly opening price rather than an unpredictable first trade.

Ethereum schedules Glamsterdam upgrade on Sepolia for Oct. 6

Ethereum developers have scheduled the networks next major upgrade, Glamsterdam, to activate on the Sepolia testnet on Oct. 6.　　Sepolia node operators must update both their execution-layer and consensus-layer clients before the activation, the Ethereum Foundation said Monday.　　One of Glamsterdam‘s changes is enshrined proposer-builder separation. It will move the handoff between specialized block builders and validators into Ethereum’s protocol, reducing reliance on outside middleware.　　Glamsterdam will introduce block-level access lists, which record the accounts and storage locations used during each block.　　The upgrade will also change gas pricing to better reflect the cost of creating and accessing data on Ethereum. Contracts that rely on fixed gas stipends or hardcoded gas limits may require changes, the foundation said.　　Developers have not set dates for its rollout on the validator-focused testnet Hoodi or on mainnet.　　Developers are targeting 2027 for Hegotá, the upgrade expected to follow Glamsterdam.　　Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin said Sunday that Hegotá could be the networks last “normal” fork before development shifts toward recursive STARKs, automated formal verification, optimized consensus and quantum-safe cryptography.
