NEW JERSEY ASKS SUPREME COURT TO SETTLE PREDICTION MARKET JURISDICTION

New Jersey's Attorney General filed a 332-page petition asking the Supreme Court to review a Third Circuit ruling that favored Kalshi in the state's cease-and-desist dispute over sports event contracts. New Jersey argues states retain authority over gambling law, and Kalshi says it can't be regulated by "50 different regulators." This comes amid a broader nationwide fight between states and the CFTC, which claims exclusive jurisdiction. Kalshi recently lost a related case in Nevada at the Ninth Circuit.

BITCOIN-GOLD CORRELATION HITS 6-YEAR HIGH

Bitcoin's 90-day correlation with gold hit its highest level since 2020 during the latest Treasury bond selloff, with bitcoin gaining 22.4% in a week, as yields rose and the dollar weakened. Bitwise frames this as bitcoin trading like "amplified gold" amid currency-debasement fears. Bitcoin's correlation to the S&P 500 fell toward zero over the same period, but similar equity decouplings during bond selloffs have historically been short-lived rather than structural. Bitcoin has since pulled back from an $80K+ peak to around $77,600, with long-term holder supply clustered between $83K-$86K and an accumulation floor around $62K-$65K.

HEY ANON BUILD 3.0: DEFAI APP REBUILT WITH MODULAR PROTOCOL ACCESS

Hey Anon released Build 3.0, a ground-up rebuild of its DeFAI app centered on a modular protocol-selection layer that scopes AI agent access by user role: yield farmers can enable Aave, Yearn, Beefy, and Pendle; perps traders can select Hyperliquid, Jupiter, or Aster; and token deployers get Pumpfun and Raydium. The update overhauled the dashboard with editable widgets, added agentic wallet creation at sign-in, and split the research AI (Gemma) into a separate chat interface distinct from the main Anon agent. Background task execution was removed in favor of in-conversation processing, reducing agent operational footprint, while coverage spans TON, Solana, and 18 EVM networks. A mobile app is pending Apple review, and a browser extension and AI trading terminal are on the near-term roadmap.

03GUIDES & TUTORIALS

RWAS: THE NEXT LIQUIDITY CHANNEL

Wintermute categorizes RWAs as crypto's next structural liquidity channel, following VC/ICO, stablecoins ($120B net issuance in a single year), and ETFs/DATs ($63B net flows plus $115B treasury accumulation), noting that onchain tokenized value has tripled to ~$30B even as the stablecoin base contracted. At 18 months of age, the RWA channel shows trailing-12-month inflows of 0.9% of market cap, tracking ahead of DATs and just behind ETFs at the same stage. Prior channels delivered asset-specific buyers, while tokenization places capital inside the system, where purchases of tokenized Treasuries or equities can rotate into BTC or alts with reduced friction, aided by tokenized assets now being accepted as collateral across major venues and DeFi protocols. If historical timing holds, peak RWA inflows are still 2 to 3 years out, and balance-sheet holders as the dominant cohort suggest the resulting cycle runs longer and with less volatility than prior ones.

WHY STABLECOINS (ALONE) WON'T FIX REMITTANCE

Global remittance fees average 6.36% against a 3% UN 2030 target, and stablecoins address only the cheapest of three pipeline segments: a Dubai-to-Manila transfer uses a blockchain in 1 of 6 steps, with the remaining steps requiring FX working capital, compliance, local licenses, and payout rail access. Tokenized liquidity does reduce one structural friction: correspondent banking locks capital per country, while on-chain pools can rebalance across 50 markets in minutes rather than days. Félix Pago's $200M raise for US-to-Latin America USDC transfers via WhatsApp demonstrates that even free-distribution consumer apps still require a balance sheet to operate. Stablecoin fragmentation introduces a new correspondent layer, as Circle, Tether, Stripe Bridge, Sony, Klarna, Cloudflare, and Fiserv stablecoins don't interoperate cleanly, prompting a16z Crypto to lead a $10M round into Better Money for cross-stablecoin conversion, replicating on-chain the same intermediary function blockchains were meant to remove.

04MISCELLANEOUS

WIREX AND COCA CARD UPDATES

Wirex is migrating cardholders to a new direct issuer (Wirex Limited) by September 30, launching partial on-chain loan repayments for Wirex One, and powering Send's new USDC-funded Visa card. Separately, COCA overhauled its cashback structure, replacing simple caps with a "Monthly Claim Capacity" tied to staked $COCA tokens, cutting the Elite tier's effective max from $800/month to $350/month, while offering a 30% discount on tier staking costs through September.

REQUEST FOR BUILDERS: TOKENIZED STOCKS

Coinbase has launched tokenized stocks on Base for eligible non-US users, creating a composable equity primitive within the EVM stack for the developer ecosystem. Base is soliciting builders across consumer-facing verticals: emerging-market neobrokerages combining local stablecoins with US equity access, AI-driven personalized index creation, and corporate loyalty programs distributing fractional share ownership in place of points or cash rewards. On the DeFi and crypto-native side, target applications include yield-principal stripping that enables self-repaying loan structures and derivative overlays, alongside memestock tokens linked to underlying equities, AI agent-managed equity allocations, and futarchy-style decision markets tied to public corporations. Base Batches 004 is now open for applications targeting these verticals.
