US state banking groups plan nationwide blockchain network for 2027

Thirty-nine US state banking associations have formed the BankChain Alliance, aiming to launch a nationwide, industry-owned blockchain network for banks by 2027. The network is intended to support smart payments, tokenized deposits, stablecoins, and automated settlement, and plans to be interoperable with other blockchains. The alliance represents thousands of US financial institutions and will invite banks nationwide to take ownership stakes, though specific governance and funding details were not disclosed. This initiative is part of a broader trend of US banks building shared on-chain infrastructure. Recent examples include a major bank-backed network from The Clearing House, a regional network called Cari, and a consortium for community banks. These efforts focus on using tokenized deposits—claims on individual banks—to enable programmable, 24/7 transfers while keeping funds on bank balance sheets. Separately, stablecoin projects are also adopting consortium models, such as the planned Open USD stablecoin backed by over 140 companies.

Hackers Withdraw 124.4 Million RIO from Wallets Across Five Blockchains

Realio platform confirmed a hack, with its web app compromised, access halted, and client wallet movements frozen. Hackers withdrew 124.4 million RIO tokens from wallets across five blockchains: Ethereum, BNB Chain, Algorand, Stellar, and the native Realio network. Investigators traced transactions to addresses created hours before the attack, suggesting a compromise of signature keys held on the platform, not a smart contract exploit. The majority of stolen funds (113.7 million RIO, or 91.4%) came from blockchain reserves (Algorand ASA and Stellar treasury), not from freely circulating investor wallets. User losses totaled 10.7 million RIO (3.27% of circulating supply). Due to low liquidity, hackers realized only about 3.7% of the stolen tokens' nominal value. For example, sales on Stellar's DEX crashed the price, netting only ~$21,900. As of the report, 68.2 million RIO remain on Stellar and 43.4 million on Algorand in hacker-controlled accounts. The native network is halted. Related projects Freehold and Districts were unaffected, but Algorand and Stellar bridges remain closed indefinitely. In a separate incident, about $7.5 million was stolen from a TAC blockchain account via a vulnerability in a Cosmos EVM module precompile.

Zcash Fell by 8% After ETF Launch. How the Crypto Fund's Debut Went

The price of the privacy-focused cryptocurrency Zcash (ZEC) fell over 8% in 24 hours, dropping to around $790. This followed the launch of the first US spot ETF for Zcash on August 25th. The Grayscale Zcash Trust was converted into the ZCSH ETF, which debuted on NYSE Arca. Despite a brief rally leading up to the launch—with ZEC surging 60% in a week and hitting an eight-year high of $880—the ETF's shares lost about 1.5% on their first trading day. Grayscale cited growing investor demand as the reason for the ETF's launch, aiming to provide access to ZEC through traditional brokerage accounts. The launch of US crypto ETFs in early 2024 significantly boosted the market, with Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs now holding nearly $100 billion and $15 billion in assets under management, respectively.

Circle Issues 5 Billion USDC in a Week Amid Intensifying Competition with Tether to Boost Supply

Circle issued approximately 5 billion USDC within a week, marking another in a series of major issuances this year. This includes a record 3.25 billion USDC on Solana in April and an additional 1.25 billion in late August, boosting Solana's share of total USDC supply above 10%, though Ethereum still holds about two-thirds. USDC's circulating supply is around $74 billion, less than half of Tether's $183.1 billion market cap. Together, they dominate roughly 83% of the $304 billion stablecoin market. Circle highlights its higher transaction volume as a counterpoint to Tether's larger supply, noting USDC facilitated $18.3 trillion in volume in 2025 compared to USDT's $13.3 trillion. The latest issuance coincides with Circle becoming the technical operator for USDC on the Hyperliquid derivatives exchange. Hyperliquid's recent upgrade directs yield from the platform's ~$5 billion in USDC reserves to buy back its HYPE token. Following Hyperliquid's shift from its own stablecoin to USDC in May, this partnership incentivizes Circle to maintain fresh USDC inflows to such platforms. Analysts will monitor whether this surge is a one-time event and if Circle will pursue more aggressive distribution partnerships, like the one with Hyperliquid, to continue closing the gap with Tether.

Russia Introduces Digital Ruble from September 1, But Maintains Ban on Cryptocurrency Payments

Russia will launch its central bank digital currency (CBDC), the digital ruble, on September 1. Major telecommunications companies (MTS, Rostelecom, Megafon) and major online retailers (Wildberries, Ozon) are preparing to accept it for payments. However, Russia maintains its ban on using cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin for direct payments, drawing a clear line between state-controlled digital money and private alternatives. A new law mandates a phased adoption: large retailers must accept the digital ruble by September 2026, with smaller businesses following by 2028. All systemically important Russian banks are required to support the currency from launch. The digital ruble will be fee-free for individuals, accessible via existing banking apps, with monthly top-up limits. This move is positioned as a way to advance state-backed digital currency in daily transactions while preventing the adoption of cryptocurrencies and stablecoins, which the central bank views as a threat to monetary sovereignty. Despite the official push, recent public opinion polls indicate significant hesitation among Russians, with a majority expressing reluctance to use the digital ruble or receive salaries in it.
