In a significant legal development within the ongoing bankruptcy case of defunct crypto exchange FTX, Ripple, the blockchain payment company, has emerged victorious with a claim on FTX assets. Notably, Ripple Singapore is the party making the claim against Alameda assets in the legal battle.
Ripple Singapore Asserts Rights To FTX Assets
The filing with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware reveals that the debtors involved in the case have revised the proposed form of order to address the informal comments submitted by Ripple Labs. 
The revised order, which has received no objections from Ripple Labs, the Office of the United States Trustee, or the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors, is now awaiting the court’s approval.

It is important to note that the filing emphasizes that the order and any subsequent actions or payments made by the debtors should not be interpreted as an admission of the validity, amount, or basis of any claim against them under bankruptcy or non-bankruptcy law. 
Furthermore, the order should not be seen as a waiver of the debtors’ or any other party’s right to dispute claims, a promise or requirement to pay specific claims, or an admission regarding the nature of any particular claim.
The filing also includes a list of claims to be disallowed, alongside surviving claims, which provides insight into the parties and amounts involved in the bankruptcy case. 
Singapore Arm Secures $11.4 Million Claim On FTX Assets
Of particular interest is the claim made by Ripple Labs Singapore Pte. Ltd., with an impressive amount of $11,403,976.90. 
Ripple’s successful claim to FTX’s assets is a significant milestone for the company and represents a victory in addition to its ongoing dispute with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
By asserting their rights in the bankruptcy case, Ripple Singapore has positioned itself as a relevant party in the matter and stands to potentially benefit from the allocation of FTX’s assets.
As the court reviews the revised order and deliberates on the various claims, stakeholders will be closely monitoring the proceedings to assess the potential impact on Ripple’s financial position and future operations.

One Vote Could Make SOL's Daily Burn Rate Soar 14 Times

Solana's first formal on-chain governance vote concluded on August 27th, coinciding with SOL hitting a yearly high. Three key proposals aimed at reshaping the network's tokenomics were decided. Solana's core challenge is a massive usage-to-value capture gap. Despite processing 120x more transactions than Ethereum and leading in DEX volume, its fee revenue is significantly lower due to its fee structure. Currently, most fees (priority fees) go to validators, with only a small base fee partially burned. This results in high net inflation (approx. 6k SOL issued vs. ~650 burned daily). The three proposals seek to address this: **SGP-0001** establishes the formal governance framework. **SGP-0002** (Double Deflation Acceleration) proposes doubling the annual reduction rate of new SOL issuance from 15% to 30%, aiming to reach the terminal inflation rate by 2029 instead of 2032, reducing issuance by an estimated 18.9 million SOL. **SGP-0003** (Resource & Entry Fee Restructuring) would split the base fee into a fixed "entry fee" for block producers and a variable, fully burned "resource fee." This could increase daily SOL burns by ~14x to 7,500-9,000. Major stakeholders like Helius, Jupiter, and Jito support the changes. However, opposition exists, notably from Solana Company (HSDT), whose revenue is 99.4% from staking. They argue rapid changes could disrupt institutional adoption. Critics also highlight a potential conflict where validators can vote against reduced staking yields using delegated SOL without explicit voter consent. The outcome of these votes provides a directional mandate. If passed, they represent a significant step towards aligning Solana's immense network activity with tangible economic value for SOL holders.

Chinese Venture Capital Is Shifting from 'Selecting People' to 'Selecting Cities'

Chinese Venture Capital: Shifting from "Picking Founders" to "Picking Cities" The article discusses a significant shift in China's venture capital (VC) landscape. Historically, VC investments heavily focused on the individual founder's vision, track record, and capability, as seen in early internet-era successes like Wang Xing (Meituan), Li Bin (Nio), and Li Xiang (Li Auto). The belief was that betting on exceptional people was the key to success. However, the rise of hard tech startups—in fields like semiconductors, robotics, AI, and biotech—has changed this calculus. These industries depend heavily on deep, localized ecosystems: specialized talent pools, established supply chains, manufacturing bases, and application scenarios. A city's industrial "resume" now significantly impacts a startup's chances. Examples include Shenzhen's dominance in robotics, Beijing's concentration of AI firms, Suzhou's biotech cluster, and Hefei's successful bet on semiconductor giant ChangXin. This shift is further driven by changes in funding sources. Government-guided funds and state-owned capital now dominate VC limited partners (LPs). These "patient capital" investors prioritize local economic development, job creation, and industrial chain growth alongside financial returns. Their early bets signal viability to other investors. Ultimately, the VC logic remains about managing risk and increasing the odds of success. In the hard tech era, a supportive city ecosystem provides crucial resources—talent, suppliers, R&D, and policy stability—that a single founder cannot easily assemble. The investment due diligence process has thus expanded from evaluating just the founder to also evaluating the founder's city. Consequently, capital is concentrating in a few regions with strong, focused industrial foundations, challenging other cities to build compelling, credible ecosystems to attract investment.
