🤑 Pyth Pro and Pyth Indices Bring 24/7 Pricing to Stellar’s $4B RWA Ecosystem

Stellar now hosts more than $4 billion in tokenized RWAs. Those assets move on infrastructure that stays online around the clock. The markets they represent often do not.

❗️That creates a specific pricing problem. A tokenized asset can remain transferable onchain while the underlying cash market is closed. Applications still need a price to value collateral, manage risk, account for vaults, and support trading.

⚡️Pyth Pro and Pyth Indices are now live on Stellar:

🔘Pyth Indices extend pricing beyond the sessions of the underlying market, while Pyth Pro gives builders access to low-latency market data across asset classes.

🔘Pyth Indices are constructed products that provide 24/7 pricing for assets whose underlying markets follow exchange hours. The catalog includes indices for Brent, natural gas, copper, and oil, alongside single-name equity indices for AAPL, NVDA, TSLA, MSTR, GOOGL, MSFT, MU, and SPCX.

On Stellar, a perpetuals market or vault can continue marking equity-linked and commodity exposure through weekends and holidays, when the cash market is closed. Collateral values, risk controls, and portfolio accounting can continue updating instead of waiting for the next session open. 🚀

🧑‍⚖️🇷🇺 Russian Courts Begin Testing Four AI Models Trained on Judicial Practice

Russia has begun to create a new automated Digital Justice system, which involves the introduction of AI technologies at all stages of legal proceedings. This was announced on September 5 by Chairman of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation Igor Krasnov at the Forum of Chairmen of the Supreme Courts of the BRICS countries.

The goal of the project is to combine all existing judicial services and ensure their seamless integration with a single portal of public services. The system will be based on Russian technical and software solutions.

"We are talking about transcribing court records, analyzing evidence, and forming document templates," — Krasnov said.

⚡️🇺🇸🇨🇦 Trump Plans to Cut Canadian Products Out of Government Contracts

President Donald Trump said he would direct the General Services Administration and USTR to remove Canadian-origin products from federal government contracts, hitting back at Ottawa over retaliatory tariffs and escalating the trade war between the two neighbors.

The moves will take place “unless Canada restores full and fair reciprocity for American Farmers and Companies,” Trump announced. Trump said the so-called Multiple Award Schedules are worth more than $50 billion each year.

🤖 OpenAI Says It Has Solved a Millennium Prize Problem — a Holy Grail of Math

OpenAI said that one of its internal models has solved the Navier-Stokes existence and smoothness problem, a fundamental question about the rules that describe how liquids and gases move.

For nearly a century, mathematicians have tried to determine whether smooth solutions to the equations describing three-dimensional fluid motion always remain smooth or if they ever break down.

To put it less mathematically: On paper, can water blow up? 🤔

📝 OpenAI says its model found a scenario in which “an initially smooth fluid at rest can develop a singularity in a finite time.” In the proof, a spaghetti-like vortex gets smaller while spinning faster and faster, its speed growing without limit in what mathematicians call “finite-time blowup.”

OpenAI published its findings along with the 165-page proof and a formalization that verifies the argument step by step. The company says it took as many as 10,000 AI agents working together on the problem about 88 hours to find the solution.

🛡 Ethereum makes quantum resistance a top priority with a 2029 deadline

The Ethereum Foundation has given itself until December 2029 to make Ethereum resistant to quantum computers across the parts of the network that process transactions, secure validators and store data.

🔘The Foundation’s Protocol cluster is planning for that 2030 threat horizon, but has locked in a 2029 completion target. That deadline stands at least until January 2027, when outside experts will reassess how fast quantum computing is actually moving.

🔘The upcoming Hegotá upgrade will not provide quantum resistance itself but is intended to keep five subsequent hard forks and related cryptographic changes on schedule.

Planned protections include new account and validator signature systems, a public-key registry and a fallback designed to keep Ethereum operating with reduced guarantees if quantum computers advance sooner than expected.

🇺🇿 Uzbekistan begins government bond-backed stablecoin payment pilot

Uzbekistan has launched a pilot to test payments with a som-pegged stablecoin backed by government securities.

The National Agency for Prospective Projects (NAPP) had registered Humo Digital as a participant in a special regime jointly overseen with the central bank. The pilot will test the issuance, circulation and redemption of HUMO, with each token pegged to one Uzbek som.

NAPP said more than 20 merchants are prepared to test HUMO payments for goods and services. The project will also integrate participating banks’ payment-processing and blockchain infrastructure. Asterium, a licensed crypto exchange, will serve as a project partner.

According to the Central Bank of Uzbekistan, the initial trial will run for 12 months, with the project’s total duration capped at three years. 🚀

🤑 U.S. Bank takes next step towards launching its stablecoin with cross-border payment test

U.S. Bancorp's (USB) U.S. Bank is laying the groundwork to put its own stablecoin to work, completing a live cross-border payment and weighing broader uses across its payments and treasury business.

❗️The Minneapolis-based lender completed a transaction with USBDC, its proprietary U.S. dollar-backed stablecoin, between U.S. Bank entities in North America and Europe.

🔜 The pilot tested minting and redeeming USBDC as well as freezing and clawing back tokens. It also validated the bank's internally developed Digital Asset Platform, which connects blockchain networks with its finance, compliance, risk and operations systems.

“This live pilot demonstrates our ability to accelerate global cash management and money movement capabilities," — said Gunjan Kedia, chairman and CEO at U.S. Bank.

🔜 The transaction ran on the Stellar blockchain, following the November announcement to experiment with custom stablecoin issuance with Stellar Development Foundation.

U.S. Bank said it is exploring several uses for USBDC, including cross-border treasury operations, liquidity management and moving collateral. The bank did not say when the stablecoin could become available to clients or give a timeline for a broader commercial rollout. 🚀

⚡️🇺🇸 US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is calling on the Senate to pass the CLARITY Act

In July, I called on the Senate to advance the Clarity Act — a bill to establish a comprehensive regulatory framework for digital assets and upgrade our ability to prevent bad actors from exploiting these critical technologies.

When the Senate returns from August recess, I strongly urge everyone to remain at the negotiating table, agree to the motion to proceed, and continue the legislative process. Failing to do so would send a troubling signal to our allies and adversaries alike that America is unwilling to lead on the future of digital assets and willing to forgo enhanced national security tools to combat their misuse.

🧑‍⚖️ The Senate is set to vote on the CLARITY Act as early as September 15

❤️ Teachers union reaches AI privacy deal with Microsoft

The American Federation of Teachers and Microsoft have reached an agreement establishing privacy and safety protections for the use of AI in schools. The AI privacy standard consists of 10 legally enforceable protections, including an agreement by the tech giant to not use student or teacher data to train or improve an AI model, with the exception of “narrow safety and security” circumstances.

The standard bars Microsoft from tracking students and prohibits its AI from making decisions in schools without human oversight. It also requires the company to be transparent with educators and parents on how its tools work.
