Resumen

New stablecoin United Stables (U) has been listed on multiple exchanges including Binance, Gate, and BitMart, with HTX launching it earlier on December 18 alongside a 20% APY earnings program. Positioned as a next-generation stablecoin for trading, payments, and AI-native ecosystems, U aggregates liquidity across different chains and assets, with a current supply of 409 million tokens on BNB Chain and Ethereum. The project gained significant attention due to endorsements from industry leaders CZ (Binance founder) and Justin Sun (HTX advisor). Both publicly engaged with United Stables’ social media, and CZ hinted at U being a "second-generation stablecoin" during an AMA. Athena Y, a co-founder of U and former executive director of Binance Charity Foundation, also adds credibility. U is backed 1:1 by a mix of USD and major audited stablecoins (USDT, USDC, USD1), featuring real-time Proof of Reserves (PoR) and monthly audits. It is fully integrated into BSC’s DeFi ecosystem, including platforms like PancakeSwap and ListaDAO, and is supported by major wallets like Trust Wallet and SafePal.

Today, multiple cryptocurrency exchanges including Binance, Gate, BitMart, and others have successively announced the listing of the stablecoin United Stables (U). Previously, Huobi HTX had already taken the lead in listing U on December 18th, simultaneously launching a wealth management activity with an annualized rate as high as 20%.

United Stables (U) positions itself as a next-generation stablecoin built for trading, payments, wealth management, and an AI-native ecosystem, reintegrating liquidity scattered across different chains and different assets. It is currently live on BNB Chain and Ethereum, with a cumulative issuance of 409 million tokens.

In the current fiercely competitive stablecoin market, United Stables quickly attracted community attention, primarily because it has gained the endorsement of two top influencers in the crypto circle—CZ and Justin Sun. Since BNB Chain previewed the launch of a new stablecoin on December 16th, the community noticed that CZ and Justin Sun successively followed the official United Stables X account, causing its popularity to soar rapidly.

On December 18th, crypto blogger Australian Lion Brother posted that CZ mentioned stablecoins extensively in that day's AMA and hinted that United Stables(U) is a second-generation stablecoin. These signs also led the market to speculate that CZ may be deeply involved with the United Stables project.

Interestingly, United Stables' co-founder Athena Y also has a "Binance background." According to Athena Y's personal account introduction, she is the co-founder of the United Nations Development Programme's "Made in Africa" initiative and co-founder of the stablecoin payment project Wello (supported by BNB Chain); the community uncovered another identity she hadn't disclosed: Athena Y previously served as the Executive Director of the Binance Charity Foundation (BCF), conducting multiple charity activities in Africa.

If CZ's support for United Stables(U) remains at the "verbal" level, Justin Sun is subsidizing it with real money. On the day United Stables(U) was listed, Huobi launched an Earn product with a 20% annualized yield. On December 19th, Justin Sun personally livestreamed with multiple KOLs to promote the stablecoin U, the cover featuring an animated image of him and CZ holding the "U".

The attire in this image is exactly what they wore during government activities in Pakistan on December 11th-12th. That day, CZ and Justin Sun took photos together with regulators; CZ was appointed as a strategic advisor to the Pakistan Crypto Committee, while Huobi received a compliance license from local regulators; afterwards, the two were photographed riding in a car together.

The Stablecoin of Stablecoins

What are the unique features of United Stables(U) that earned it the favor of CZ and Justin Sun?

United Stables(U) can be called the stablecoin of stablecoins. According to official introduction, U is fully collateralized 1:1 by the US dollar and audited major stablecoins (such as USDT, USDC, and USD1). U also features real-time on-chain Proof of Reserves (PoR) and monthly audits. This structure not only enhances liquidity and reduces collateral asset volatility but also ensures users can always redeem quickly and transparently.

The total issuance of United Stables(U) is 409 million tokens, all of which are currently in circulation. According to DeFiLama data, although United Stables(U) supports both BSC and Ethereum chains, its entire current supply is issued on BSC.

In terms of ecosystem integration, U has integrated support for the vast majority of BSC ecosystem applications, including mainstream DeFi protocols like PancakeSwap, Aster, Four.meme, ListaDAO, etc. Users can directly trade, stake, borrow, and provide liquidity on-chain. Regarding wallet support, Binance Wallet, Trust Wallet, and SafePal have simultaneously listed U.

United Stables has stated that "U is born for the AI era," but no specific project developments related to this have been revealed yet.

Annual Salary of Millions Competing for Electricians, Meta Rushes to Open Its Own Technical School

The AI boom is facing an unexpected bottleneck: a severe shortage of skilled construction workers and electricians. As tech giants like Meta, OpenAI, and Alphabet race to build massive data centers—such as OpenAI's $16 billion "Stargate" project—they are hitting a critical labor wall. The U.S. needs an estimated 130,000 more electricians, 240,000 construction workers, and 150,000 supervisors by 2030 for AI infrastructure alone, but tens of thousands of electrician jobs go unfilled each year. While AI companies offer high premiums, with electricians earning up to $280,000 annually, worker scarcity still causes massive losses—delays on a single project can cost $14.2 million per month. The complexity of building AI data centers, which require immense power (equivalent to powering hundreds of thousands of homes), sophisticated electrical systems, and advanced liquid cooling solutions, demands highly skilled technicians who are in short supply. To combat this, companies are investing heavily in training. Meta has committed $115 million to a free training school offering tuition, housing, and stipends, targeting 5,000 new workers. OpenAI is partnering with unions to secure skilled labor. These efforts are paying off, with a significant rise in Gen Z interest in trade schools over college. However, the power demands are staggering. AI data centers are driving a rapid surge in electricity consumption, projected to account for up to 12% of U.S. power use by 2028 and raising costs for consumers. Furthermore, the construction boom is project-based, leading to a potential future glut of trained workers once building peaks, which could depress wages industry-wide. The race for AI supremacy now depends as much on skilled hands as on advanced chips.

OpenAI No Longer Sells Its Most Expensive Model for Profit

OpenAI is shifting its business strategy away from promoting its most expensive, flagship models for every task. Recent price cuts—80% for GPT-5.6 Luna and 20% for Terra—signal a deeper change: the company now actively advises users that many tasks don't require the most powerful model. Instead, OpenAI recommends a tiered approach: use the high-end GPT-5.6 Sol for complex planning and analysis, then delegate execution to cheaper models like Luna. This mirrors moves by Anthropic, which recently launched Claude Opus 5 at half the price of its top model, Fable 5. Both companies are de-emphasizing flagship models as primary revenue drivers, using them instead for brand prestige and technological showcases. The industry is entering a "mass-market" phase, similar to automotive, where high-volume, cost-effective models handle daily operations and drive scale. OpenAI's price reductions are partly enabled by AI models themselves optimizing underlying code and infrastructure, creating a self-reinforcing cycle of efficiency gains and cost reduction. Competition is shifting from "who is smartest" to "who offers the best value." The goal is no longer selling individual models but fostering widespread API adoption and ecosystem lock-in. By making AI calls cheap and ubiquitous, companies like OpenAI aim to become the indispensable, utility-like infrastructure powering automated workflows—the "water and electricity" of software, quietly embedded everywhere.

Suspected 4th Coldcard attack wave sweeps 389 Bitcoin: Galaxy’s Thorn

Coldcard hardware wallet users are facing a new wave of coordinated attacks targeting a firmware flaw, with researcher Alex Thorn flagging 218 recent transactions moving approximately 389 Bitcoin from potentially impacted addresses. The attack pattern shows a high rate of transactions targeting unique victim addresses, differing from previous waves. The vulnerability, which causes affected devices to generate weaker wallet seeds, is estimated to have impacted over 1,100 wallets, leading to around $90 million in Bitcoin stolen. Thorn advises affected users who control their keys may attempt to move funds with a higher-fee transaction before the attacker's transactions are confirmed.

Bitcoin Miners Are Waving the White Flag, But Their Stocks Are Soaring

Bitcoin miners are capitulating as evidenced by a sustained drop in network hash rate and a record-steep 19.9% decline in mining difficulty, signaling the shuttering of unprofitable machines. However, in a significant divergence from historical patterns, the stocks of publicly traded mining companies have soared, with one major player gaining over 430% in the past year, even as BTC's price fell roughly 46%. This surge is largely attributed to these companies pivoting toward the more lucrative AI narrative. Simultaneously, miners face a structural squeeze. Daily block reward revenue in BTC terms has hit a new all-time low following the latest halving, with current dollar-denominated daily revenue around $30 million compared to a longer-term average of ~$40 million. Fee revenue remains negligible, covering less than one block's subsidy over a 28-day average and accounting for only about ten minutes of the network's daily security budget. This capitulation cycle is unique: miner stress and crypto price weakness have decoupled due to alternative revenue streams (AI), while the long-term reliance on increasing bitcoin prices to offset shrinking subsidies continues, with fee income still far from filling the impending gap.

Will the Fed Definitely Raise Interest Rates in September? How Will Crypto and U.S. Stocks Withstand the Pressure?

The market's expectation for a September Fed rate hike surged dramatically in early August, jumping from under 50% to over 80% within a week. This shift followed a contentious July FOMC meeting, where a 9-3 vote to hold rates revealed growing dissent from hawkish members advocating for an immediate hike to combat persistent inflation. The primary catalyst for this repricing is rising oil prices, driven by renewed geopolitical tensions around the Strait of Hormuz, which threaten global supply. Energy costs directly influence inflation metrics, making the upcoming July CPI report (due August 12th) a critical data point. If it shows inflation reaccelerating, the probability of a September hike will solidify. For Bitcoin and crypto assets, this is typically bearish news. Bitcoin continues to behave as a high-beta, liquidity-sensitive risk asset. A rate hike raises the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets and could drive capital toward money markets, pressuring crypto prices in the short term. However, historical patterns suggest that if a hike is perceived as the end of a tightening cycle rather than the start, any negative price impact may be brief. U.S. stocks, particularly crypto-linked equities like Coinbase and growth-oriented tech stocks, are also vulnerable. Higher rates increase discount rates in valuation models, putting pressure on high-multiple companies. This coincides with a pivotal tech earnings season where investor focus has shifted from massive AI capital expenditure to tangible revenue and cash flow generation. Companies with negative cash flow and weak growth narratives could face heightened volatility if borrowing costs rise in September. In summary, a September Fed hike has evolved into a mainstream market scenario. Key factors to watch are oil prices, the July CPI report, and Fed communications, which will determine the final decision and its impact on volatile crypto and equity markets.
