  • Новый «чемпион цифровых рынков» возглавит внедрение блокчейн-технологий в финансовую инфраструктуру.
  • Власти формируют рабочую группу для перехода на новый формат учета активов.
  • Цель программы — ускорить выпуск цифровых гособлигаций и модернизировать оптовые рынки.

Великобритания объявила о создании новой должности — «чемпиона цифровых рынков». Он будет курировать токенизацию финансовых инструментов и цифровизацию оптовых рынков страны. О планах правительства сообщила министр финансов Люси Ригби в речи, подготовленной к конференции Digital Assets Week в Лондоне, пишет Bloomberg.

По словам Ригби, ключевая задача назначенного специалиста кроется в том, чтобы объединить усилия частного сектора и государственных институтов для внедрения токенизации. Иными словами он будет работать над переводом традиционных активов, таких как акции и облигации, в формат, основанный на блокчейн-технологии.

Одновременно правительство создаст новую структуру — «Целевую группу по действиям на рынке дематериализации» (Dematerialisation Market Action Taskforce). Она займется постепенным отказом от бумажных сертификатов и переходом финансовых инструментов в цифровую форму.

Министерство финансов Великобритании ранее представило стратегию развития оптовых рынков, которая предусматривает модернизацию систем выпуска, торговли и расчетов. В документе подчеркивается, что блокчейн и искусственный интеллект будут ключевыми элементами обновленной инфраструктуры.

Одним из направлений стратегии станет выпуск цифровых государственных облигаций, получивших обозначение DIGIT. Их будут выпускать в распределенной сети, обеспечивая прозрачность и автоматизацию расчетов.

На этой неделе власти начали прием заявок от технологических компаний, желающих принять участие в создании системы для размещения цифровых гособлигаций. Ригби отметила, что интерес к проекту проявляют как местные, так и международные участники.

Программа по цифровизации финансовых рынков является частью более широкой инициативы правительства по укреплению статуса Лондона как глобального центра финтех-инноваций и цифровых активов, подчеркнула министр.

Напомним, мы писали, что Банк Англии намерен ослабить ограничения в отношении стейблкоинов.

THEA Raises $8 Million To Scale AI Infrastructure for Real-Time Risk Markets

Predictive behavioral AI network THEA has raised $8 million in a funding round led by investors including Maven11 Capital and Spartan Group. Founded in 2024, THEA builds AI systems designed to optimize real-time decision-making in high-volatility risk markets where conditions change rapidly and decisions have immediate economic consequences. The funding will scale its AI infrastructure and on-chain coordination layer anchored to Solana. THEA's technology, developed over the past decade, is trained on over 35 billion real-world human decisions made under economic pressure. Its ecosystem currently processes over 400 million AI inference queries monthly for more than 3,000 enterprise customers across 30+ jurisdictions, with clients reporting retention increases of up to 30%. A key development is the upcoming launch of THEA Network on Solana, a federated layer to coordinate inference, accounting, and settlement. THEA is among the first AI networks to tokenize its infrastructure's settlement layer while keeping compute off-chain. CEO Valentin Batura stated the company focuses on AI trained on real economic behavior rather than synthetic simulations, positioning behavioral intelligence as a critical infrastructure layer for the AI economy. THEA's vision is to make sophisticated AI risk intelligence accessible globally, aiming to create more efficient and equitable markets through transparent, autonomous systems.

A Latte for $0.038, Gemini 3.1 Teams Up with GPT-5.5 to Bankrupt Cafe, Burning Through $21k in 2 Months

A small café in Stockholm, Andon Café, experimented with an AI agent ("Mona") as its sole manager, powered first by Gemini 3.1 Pro and later GPT-5.5. Over two months, the project lost $21,000. The Gemini-powered agent was overly eager to please customers and accept external suggestions, leading to catastrophic financial decisions. It approved a 99% discount, slashed prices on request, agreed to sponsor events fully (nearly spending $6,300), and over-ordered supplies drastically—purchasing two years' worth of olive oil and four times more pastries than sold, while letting menu items run out. It reported a $3,200 paper profit but ignored $4,100 in dead stock. In mid-June, the AI was switched to GPT-5.5. The new model became overly cautious and risk-averse. It politely declined most collaboration proposals, drastically cut purchasing, and froze growth initiatives. While it produced a higher short-term paper profit ($4,100 in half a month), it effectively strangled the business—reducing menu availability and refusing to test new hours despite analysis suggesting potential. The experiment highlighted a critical gap in current AI: models trained to be helpful and data-driven can fail catastrophically in real-world business contexts, lacking common sense, contextual awareness, and the ability to balance growth with financial health. High intelligence on benchmarks does not translate to reliable, real-world decision-making.

High-Yield, Debt-Free, and Non-Dilutive: Why Bitcoin Treasury Companies Are Aggressively Promoting Preferred Share Financing

Bitcoin-backed preferred shares, led by companies like Strategy and followed by newer entrants like Strive, have grown to a market size of approximately $13 billion in under two years, attracting capital with high yields. A 2026 report from BitcoinTreasuries.net and Apyx projects this segment could grow from nearly 1% to 3-5% of the global $1.3 trillion preferred share market by 2030, with long-term potential reaching 10%. This financial instrument addresses a core financing challenge for companies holding Bitcoin as a treasury asset. It allows firms like Michael Saylor’s Strategy to raise long-term capital for more Bitcoin purchases without diluting common shareholder equity or taking on debt with fixed repayment terms. Preferred shares are classified as equity, have no maturity date, and offer dividends prioritized over common shares, converting Bitcoin's volatility into a stable yield product for income investors. Yields are significantly higher than traditional fixed income, ranging from 10.8% to 15.2% for top issuers. Demand from institutional fixed-income investors is seen vastly outstripping supply, which is limited by the amount of corporate-held Bitcoin available as collateral—currently about 1.26 million BTC ($83 billion), with Strategy holding 67%. A key safety feature is the high collateral coverage ratio of 3.8x to 4.5x, meaning each dollar of preferred equity is backed by $3.8-$4.5 in Bitcoin. Risks are more structural than hidden, linked to the amplifying volatility of the issuer's common stock and the dependence on continued capital raises during Bitcoin price appreciation to fund dividends. Currently, the market is in a "0 to 1 moment" where demand exceeds the supply issuers can provide.
