YouTube enables PYUSD stablecoin payouts for US creators: Report

Introduzione

YouTube has enabled US-based creators to receive payouts in PayPal’s stablecoin, PYUSD, according to a report. The feature, confirmed by PayPal’s head of crypto, allows creators to accept payments in PYUSD without YouTube directly handling cryptocurrency. This integration builds on PayPal’s existing payment relationship with the platform. The move signals a shift for YouTube, which has historically restricted crypto-related content, and could significantly boost stablecoin adoption given the platform’s large user base. PYUSD, launched in 2023, has grown rapidly, with its market cap surging from around $500 million in January to $3.9 billion, aided by recent integrations with platforms like Spark and Bitfinex.

Video-sharing giant YouTube has reportedly enabled US-based creators to accept payouts in PayPal’s stablecoin, PYUSD.

Fortune reported on Thursday that PayPal’s head of crypto, May Zabaneh, said the feature is live, but only for users in the US. The firm integrated the ability for recipients to accept payments in PYUSD earlier this year, with YouTube ultimately opting to open that choice up to its creators.

“The beauty of what we’ve built is that YouTube doesn’t have to touch crypto and so we can help take away that complexity,” she said.

PayPal has had a long-running relationship with YouTube, with the platform allowing users to pay via its services for many years, alongside utilizing it for creator AdSense payouts.

YouTube may be warming up to crypto, after its history of shadowbanning crypto content, as digital assets are making their way into the mainstream. The move could also be a potential boon for stablecoin adoption, given the size of YouTube’s platform.

The stablecoin market has exploded over the past year as mainstream businesses, institutions and governments have moved to integrate the assets with traditional finance.

PSYUD was launched in mid-2023 and has a current market cap of $3.9 billion according to CoinGecko data. It has skyrocketed in market value since the start of the year, increasing from around $500 million in January.

A significant chunk of PYUSD’s growth has come since the start of September, when the market cap was sitting around $1 billion. During that month, PYUSD was integrated with Spark’s lending markets and Bitfinex’s Stable, an institutional-grade stablecoin blockchain.

Qualcomm Chip Price Hike Deals a Blow to Android Phones

Qualcomm has officially announced a new round of price increases for its entire chip portfolio, effective September 1. The hikes, reaching up to 18% for the flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro, follow similar moves by MediaTek, intensifying cost pressures on the already strained smartphone industry. CEO Cristiano Amon confirmed the plan, citing the need to offset rising industry-wide costs and restore declining profit margins. Qualcomm's Q3 FY2026 results showed a 25% drop in net profit, with mobile revenue plunging 20% year-over-year, hitting its lowest level since 2021. The surge in AI computing demand has led memory manufacturers to prioritize HBM production, creating a shortage in general-purpose DRAM and NAND Flash chips. Their prices soared by 93%-98% and 55%-60% respectively in Q1 2026, causing the memory cost share in smartphones to jump from 10%-15% to over 30%. Coupled with the soaring cost of advanced nodes like TSMC's 2nm and packaging, overall chip costs have reached historic highs. These upstream pressures are forcing downstream smartphone brands like Xiaomi, OPPO, and vivo to cut orders for mid-to-low-end models by up to 20% and use cost-saving measures like older chipsets. Reportedly, the Snapdragon 8E5 will be repurposed as a "long-lasting" chip for sub-brand phones in H2 2026. Amid this cost crisis, the Android market remains sluggish. Q2 2026 smartphone shipments in China fell 4.3% year-over-year, marking five consecutive quarters of decline. Major Android brands saw market share drop, while Huawei and Apple, with their in-house chip advantages, gained share. Qualcomm is diversifying into automotive and IoT sectors to reduce reliance on smartphones, but these new segments cannot yet fill the mobile revenue gap. Industry observers warn that the full impact of component cost hikes will hit in the second half of 2026, likely leading to higher-than-expected price increases for Android flagships and a further contraction in the Chinese smartphone market.

Breaking: GPT-5.6 Prices Slashed Effective Today

OpenAI has announced significant price cuts for its GPT-5.6 model API, effective immediately. The entry-level **GPT-5.6 Luna** sees the most drastic reduction, with input prices dropping 80% to $0.20 per million tokens and output prices falling to $1.20 per million tokens. The mid-tier **GPT-5.6 Terra** is reduced by 20%, now costing $2.00 (input) and $12.00 (output) per million tokens. The flagship **GPT-5.6 Sol** maintains its original price but introduces a new **Fast mode**, offering speeds up to 2.5 times faster for double the cost. The company attributes these price reductions to efficiency gains achieved through **GPT-5.6 Sol's own involvement in optimizing its production systems**. The model assisted in rewriting GPU kernels and improving speculative decoding, leading to a 20% reduction in end-to-end service costs and over 15% improvement in token generation efficiency. OpenAI emphasizes this process remained human-led. A key focus of the降价 is to lower the barrier for running **AI agent workflows**. By making the capable, tool-calling Luna model significantly cheaper, OpenAI aims to enable more frequent use in cost-sensitive, high-volume tasks like code review and monitoring. This creates a potential feedback loop: model-assisted efficiency gains lead to lower costs, which enables broader agent deployment, which in turn drives further optimization. The new pricing and features will also apply to Codex and ChatGPT Work subscriptions. The changes intensify competition in the large language model market, with OpenAI directly challenging rivals like Anthropic to respond.

South Koreans' 'Gambling Nature' is Actually Forced by Life

This article explores how systemic pressures in South Korea, rather than inherent "gambling" tendencies, drive widespread speculative financial behavior. It begins by noting the high frequency of flights from South Korea to Macau, symbolizing the search for outlets beyond domestic restrictions. The core argument is that ordinary life goals—stable employment, home ownership, and financial security—have become increasingly tied to asset markets due to structural economic factors. South Korea's development model, historically reliant on corporate leverage (chaebols), has evolved into a society where household debt and personal leverage are normalized as pathways to social mobility. Key mechanisms discussed include: * **Housing Policy:** Government measures to improve affordability, like extending mortgage terms to 50 years and the unique *jeonse* (key money) rental system, embed high leverage into the housing market. * **Financial Products:** The recent approval and explosive popularity of single-stock 2x leveraged ETFs (e.g., on Samsung and SK Hynix), easily accessed via mobile apps, lowered barriers to high-risk trading. * **Social Pressure:** Media narratives around soaring corporate profits (e.g., SK Hynix) and employee bonuses create a fear of missing out, pushing individuals to use leverage to "catch up." The article concludes that this "leveraged life" is a product of institutional history and policy choices. When traditional paths to success feel constrained, and policy facilitates debt-based solutions for housing and investment, speculative behavior becomes a rational, if risky, strategy for many. The rapid cycle of regulatory approval for leveraged ETFs followed by a market crash and official apology in mid-2026 exemplifies the system's inherent contradictions. Ultimately, the "bet" is not just on assets, but on using future earnings to secure a place in the present society.

US Senators sent revised ethics rules to White House for CLARITY Act: Report

Two U.S. senators, Democrat Ruben Gallego and Republican Thom Tillis, have sent revised ethics guidelines to the White House concerning the cryptocurrency market structure bill known as the CLARITY Act. The changes reportedly shift enforcement of a ban on federal officials issuing or sponsoring tokens from the U.S. Attorney General to state authorities, addressing concerns from lawmakers about the initial draft. Gallego emphasized the need to strengthen provisions on ethics, consumer protection, and market integrity. The revisions aim to gain support from Senate Democrats, whose votes are needed to reach the 60-vote threshold for passage, as Republicans hold a narrow majority.

Charles Hoskinson Announces Major Cardano Update: '60 Times More...'

Charles Hoskinson, founder of Cardano ($ADA), has announced a major upcoming update called Leios, which he claims will increase the network's performance by approximately 60 times. He emphasized Cardano's decentralized governance, stating the community can collectively decide the network's future, allocate resources, vote, and implement changes without a central authority. Hoskinson acknowledged that while Cardano is technologically stronger now than in 2024, it has lost market position, brand value, and industry respect. He pledged to take immediate steps to restore $ADA to a leading path. He expressed dissatisfaction with the ecosystem's branding, marketing, and adoption efforts but affirmed that Cardano is a resilient "marathon" project that will persist regardless of market conditions.
