🇨🇦🇪🇺 Carney pushes idea of making Canada 'associate member' of EU

Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney wants closer links with the European Union and is exploring whether his country could become an "associate member" of the ​bloc. Carney has ​spoken regularly with several ​EU leaders, most ⁠notably French President Emmanuel Macron, about the possibility of letting Canadians live and work visa-free in the EU. Both leaders are set ​to meet ⁠later this month.

Canada and the EU are discussing freer movement of goods, services and workers in strategic sectors like energy, AI, defence and critical minerals, while also exploring joint infrastructure projects, including underwater cables, data centres, cloud storage, satellites and energy routes.

💊 Scientists discover a hidden switch that shuts down inflammation

Inflammation is one of the immune system's most important defense responses. It helps the body fight infection and repair damaged tissue. But if that response remains active for too long, it can begin to harm healthy tissue and contribute to conditions including arthritis, heart disease, and diabetes.

Researchers at University College London (UCL) have identified a biological mechanism that helps the body bring inflammation to an end, a finding that could eventually lead to new treatments for chronic inflammatory diseases affecting millions of people.

The new study, published in Nature Communications, points to a group of small fat-derived molecules called epoxy-oxylipins as part of that shutdown process. These molecules act like natural brakes on the immune system.

"This is the first study to map epoxy-oxylipin activity in humans during inflammation. By boosting these protective fat molecules, we could design safer treatments for diseases driven by chronic inflammation," — corresponding author Professor Derek Gilroy (UCL Division of Medicine) said.

💸 BRICS Countries Explore CBDC Links to Accelerate Cross-Border Payments

BRICS countries are exploring the possibility of connecting CBDCs and national payment systems to strengthen cross-border payments and settlements among member economies

⬇️CBDC Connectivity Could Reduce Cross-Border Payment Costs

🔘The discussions focus on making CBDC systems interoperable across member countries, potentially allowing selected commercial and financial transactions to be processed and settled digitally across borders.

🔘Greater connectivity could reduce the number of intermediaries involved in international transactions, helping lower payment costs and shorten settlement times.

🔘BRICS members are also examining stronger links between instant payment systems to support faster digital transfers for individuals and businesses.

❗️Existing Payment Networks Could Support Integration:

🔜 India’s UPI and Brazil’s Pix are among the most prominent examples, alongside instant payment infrastructure operated by other member countries.

🔜 India’s experience linking UPI with Singapore’s PayNow also provides a practical example of connecting domestic payment systems internationally

BRICS is exploring interoperable cross-border payments, including potential CBDC connectivity. The technical and regulatory frameworks are still under development. 🚀

🤖 MIT’s Math Breakthrough Could Make Blockchains Quantum-Proof

Here’s the key insight: you don’t need to encrypt all the data to make it quantum safe. Decrypting everything is computationally hard and very expensive.

❗️Random Linear Network Coding (RLNC), a coding method developed over two decades in MIT lab “Network Coding and Reliable Communications Group” offers a proven alternative. RLNC takes data and splits it into coded equations, which can then be mixed and recombined as they travel through the network.

⬇️ Traditional PQC is costly because it requires encrypting and decrypting all the data. With PQC encryption via RLNC you only need to encrypt a fraction — one out of ten coded equations — and the entire dataset inherits its quantum-safe protection.

🔘With RLNC, encrypting 10% of the data effectively protects 100% of the dataset, while cutting 90% of the computational burden. It’s all based on pure math. Because RLNC consists of encoding and decoding data into packets, it can be embedded at any level of the Web3 stack, enabling quantum-safe, scalable performance of decentralized systems.

🔘At the application level, the math is applied at the software layer and managed locally, representing the fastest pace to adoption. At the infrastructure level, MIT lab has done a synthesis of RLNC in hardware chips at MIT, showing that this can scale down to silicon and into the core of blockchain nodes, ensuring long-term systemic resilience with minimal cost.

Ultimately, RLNC can also be leveraged as a “quantum-safe memory layer” for blockchains. A way to ensure that data propagation, storage, and writing to the chain inherits quantum security without every transaction being painfully encrypted end-to-end.

🚘 China Is Ditching Touchscreens For Essential Controls In New Cars

China's MIIT has drafted new rules that would bring back physical controls for essential functions on new cars. The law is expected to go into effect on July 1, 2027, and it would require new vehicles to have certain physical controls, triggers, and switches with specific size and feedback requirements for each button.

This does not mean touchscreens are going away on newer model cars, but it does impact controls that were previously integrated into the touchscreen display, including turn signals, lighting, shifting gears, windshield wipers, and window defrosters. The touchscreen will remain in place for other functions and cool dashboard gadgets.

🤖 Scientists just made quantum computer operations 1,000 times faster

Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden have now developed a method that can perform a broad range of advanced quantum operations more than a thousand times faster. The advance tackles a major obstacle in the field and could help move quantum computing closer to becoming fault-tolerant.

Researchers are exploring bosonic quantum codes to make quantum computers more resilient to errors. Instead of assigning quantum information to individual qubits, this approach stores it in microwave fields inside superconducting circuits.

"Our method shows that a diverse range of quantum operations on bosonic states can be completed within a single driving cycle, rather than the several thousand cycles that have been required previously.

This makes the operations both faster and more efficient, while reducing the risk that disturbances will corrupt the information before the process is finished.

It represents an important step towards fault-tolerant quantum computers," — says Lei Du, researcher in Applied Quantum Physics at Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden. 🚀

🧑‍⚖️ Senate Republicans release 'final' Clarity Act draft as Trump accepts most ethics provisions

Sens. Cynthia Lummis, John Boozman, and Tim Scott released the final draft of the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (H.R. 3633) ahead of a scheduled cloture vote on Tuesday. If cloture is invoked, the new text would be offered as the substitute amendment.

🟠The final text includes new ethics language which reflects substantially all of the Tillis-Gallego ethics proposal, including a meaningful role for state attorneys general in enforcement.

"President Trump voluntarily agreed to unprecedented ethics restrictions, holding every federally elected official, judge, and their spouses to some of the toughest ethics restrictions in U.S. history," — Lummis said in a statement. "Democrats got what they wanted; now they need to take yes for an answer."


🟠The bill text shows that the ethics requirements will cover a public official or employee; those elected to the office of President, Vice President, or member of Congress; and their spouses. However, the bill does not state limits on other family members, such as an official's children.

⬇️ Stablecoin circuit breaker

🔘The draft would also give the Treasury secretary authority to impose a circuit-breaker on stablecoin rewards to limit deposit outflows from community banks if payment stablecoins trigger substantial withdrawals, which would last 18 months after enactment.

🔘In an unresolved dispute against crypto players, banks have been arguing for further tightening on stablecoin yield language. While the bill limits platforms from paying interest on idle stablecoin holdings, rewards on stablecoin usage are still allowed. The circuit-breaker is meant as an apparent "emergency brake" for banks fearing existential deposit flight from community banks.

❗️The draft also includes edits to the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act (BRCA) to shield developers from money transmission registration requirements and establish a strong civil safe harbor.

🍪 NASA-backed scientists turn plastic waste into edible cookies

Researchers at Southern Illinois University are exploring how microorganisms could turn plastic waste into safe, edible food — a concept inspired by NASA research on producing food during deep-space missions.

A major target is polyethylene terephthalate (PET), a widely used plastic found in products such as soda and water bottles. PET contains carbon-rich molecules that can potentially be broken apart and rebuilt into useful compounds, including components that can ultimately become proteins. Those smaller molecules are then fed to the engineered yeast.

Once the yeast-derived ingredients have been produced, researchers combine them with fiber, starch, and sweetener. The mixture is then pushed through a 3D printer to create protein-rich cookies called µBites. The available data indicate that µBites are safe to eat, although the researchers are still waiting for institutional approval before conducting formal taste tests.

⚡️🇺🇸 US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on the final draft of the CLARITY Act

I’ve said many times that the CLARITY Act is essential to ensuring America wins the global race for new technology. That’s the reason Congress passed the GENIUS Act: to ensure that stablecoin infrastructure, a revolutionary financial technology, will be built in America.

The final draft of the CLARITY Act furthers this mission. It gives the Secretary of the Treasury additional authority to act if the facts around deposit flight change to the detriment of community banks. If stablecoins cause harm to community banks, I will not hesitate to use these tools to ensure they remain fully protected.

⚡️❤️ Microsoft sets limits for future AI models as industry throttles frontier

Microsoft unveiled a draft Humanist AI Code of Conduct establishing safety rules, human oversight, and core boundaries for its future AI models. The framework prioritizes maintaining human control over automated capabilities.

“We got feedback from people that they wanted to see even more explicit commitment to AI always working in service of people and not trying to replace them,” — Microsoft AI chief Mustafa Suleyman said.


🔜 ​​​​​​​Under the document, the software provider explicitly rejects the pursuit of all-purpose superintelligence that might evade oversight mechanisms, maintaining that systems must be designed to halt operations rather than breach conduct constraints.

🔜 It also explicitly stipulates that models will never resist human interruption, override, correction, or shutdown, and must always comply with a request to pause, redirect, cancel, or stop operations.

The publication opens a six-week public consultation, with Microsoft planning to finalize the policy by year-end and apply it to AI model development from 2027 onward.

⚡️🇪🇺 EU to limit access to social media before age of 15

The EU executive on Thursday will unveil a new EU KIDS Act setting out age restrictions, along with new rules requiring covered products, such as social media and AI companions, to be safe by design. The proposal aims to create a tiered system for accessing social media under parental supervision before age 15.

🟠Under 13: Parent-controlled accounts only.
🟠Ages 13–15: Limited accounts with parental controls and restrictions on strangers and screen time.
🟠15+: Teens can create their own accounts.

The EU's new proposal would apply to social media, video-sharing platforms, online games, and AI chatbots and AI companions, but would exclude educational tools. It will also come with a series of education measures for kids, parents and guardians. Platforms would also be required to use age-verification technology.

⚡️🧑‍⚖️ U.S. House Committee to Review Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Bill on September 16, 2026

The U.S. House Financial Services Committee plans to review H.R. 8957, the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve bill, on September 16, 2026, and move it into the committee voting process. The bill would establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve at the U.S. Treasury and a separate digital asset reserve for non-Bitcoin assets.

The bill was introduced by Representative Nick Begich, with Jared Golden as the only Democratic co-sponsor. It says compliant Bitcoin obtained through federal forfeitures would be added to the reserve, while proceeds from selling or exchanging non-Bitcoin assets could be used to buy more Bitcoin or reduce the national debt.

The Treasury and Commerce departments would also study ways to acquire more Bitcoin over the next five years on a budget-neutral basis. The bill does not authorize borrowing, new taxes, or deficit spending to fund purchases.

The committee review is scheduled to begin at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Wednesday.

⚡️🤑 Ripple CEO Urges Senate to Vote Yes on Clarity Act

This bill isn't just a compromise…it's the product of real, substantive trades policymakers made to get here.

I said this many months ago: perfect can't be the enemy of good…
and let's be clear: those trades weren't small. This isn't a deal Senators should be ‘settling for’ — it's a deal that they should stand behind.

Senate: the world is watching and voters are watching. Now is the time to vote yes.
