🚨UPDATE: @tethergold has received a clean audit opinion from @KPMG. The review confirmed that its $2.25 billion in physical gold reserves fully backed the XAU₮ tokens in circulation at the end of 2025. XAU₮ becomes the second @tether product to receive an unqualified financial statement audit from a Big Four accounting firm, following USDT issuer Tether International's audit in August 2026.

🚨UPDATE: @amazon wants to become a major source of product information worldwide. The company is reportedly planning the World Product Graph, a database covering almost every product sold globally, whether available on Amazon or not. The proposed initiative could help Amazon compete with Google in product discovery and keep AI-powered shopping activity within its ecosystem. However, the project has not been confirmed as a definite launch.

⚡️LATEST: @ethereum researchers want to accelerate the network's quantum-resistance plans. Ethlabs is proposing a 2027 target, arguing that advances in AI and quantum computing could create security risks sooner than anticipated. The proposal would shift attention away from some planned Hegotá features toward post-quantum cryptography and stronger software defences. The plan is not yet approved, but Ethlabs believes Ethereum should prepare before these threats become practical.

NEW: 🇹🇭 Thailand is bringing crypto into everyday spending. The country has launched WORPT, an app allowing international tourists to convert $USDT and $USDC into Thai baht and pay at participating shops and restaurants through QR codes. Users don't need a Thai bank account, and merchants receive payments in baht rather than crypto. The service operates under Thailand's TouristDigiPay regulatory sandbox, connecting digital assets with the country's existing payment infrastructure.

UPDATE: 🇬🇧 Traditional banking infrastructure is moving deeper into stablecoins. UK bank @griffinbank has raised $20 million to build reserve services for stablecoin businesses and onchain payment rails for cross-border transactions. The expansion builds on Griffin's existing business of providing banking infrastructure to fintech companies. The bank is positioning itself as a regulated partner for stablecoin firms rather than competing with them directly.

🚨LATEST: @SoFi is expanding its stablecoin beyond Ethereum and Solana. SoFiUSD is now live on @0xPolygon, giving more than 17 million members another network for accessing and using the bank-issued digital dollar. Through Polygon Open Money Stack, users can access fiat payment rails and cross-chain settlement without leaving the SoFi app.

🚨UPDATE: @BlackRock's tokenized Treasury fund is getting round-the-clock liquidity. @Securitize and @ethena have launched a $100 million facility that allows eligible investors to swap BUIDL shares for USDC beyond traditional market hours. The facility starts with $50 million in liquidity, with an additional $50 million available as demand draws down the initial pool. The launch builds on the companies' earlier integration to enable 24/7 atomic swaps involving BUIDL and Ethena's stablecoin.

🔥HUGE: Traditional financial markets are moving further onchain. @The_DTCC, the institution overseeing more than $114 trillion in assets under custody, plans to bring its tokenization service to @solana in the second half of 2027. The integration will allow financial institutions to tokenize eligible US securities held by the Depository Trust Company (DTC), transfer them between approved wallets and manage them on Solana. The move follows DTCC's October 28 launch of its Tokenization Service, which initially supports the Canton Network and DTCC's private Besu blockchain. Among the 20 institutions that signed agreements to access the service are @jpmorgan, @MorganStanley, @BankofAmerica, @Barclays, @Citi, @Fidelity, @StateStreet and @UBS. Only eligible securities approved for the service will be tokenized. The $114 trillion figure represents DTCC's total assets under custody, not the value of assets being moved onchain.
