Aurelion Treasury Unveils Nasdaq’s First Tether Gold Reserve

TheCryptoTimesPublicado em 2025-10-10Última atualização em 2025-10-10

Prestige Wealth Inc. announced on Friday that it is rebranding to Aurelion Treasury to launch Nasdaq’s first Tether Gold-backed corporate reserve. 

This came shortly after the firm secured $150 million in new funding to build a new kind of digital gold treasury that connects real gold with blockchain technology. The rebrand, which is subject to regulatory approval, will take effect on October 13, 2025, when the company begins trading under its new ticker, AURE.

Big Funding for a Gold-Backed Future

In the press release, the firm said it raised $100 million through a Private Investment in Public Equity financing round led by Antalpha Platform Holding Company. 

Another $50 million came from a loan provided by Antalpha Management, which brings the total funds to $150 million, according to a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Aurelion said it plans to use most of the proceeds to acquire Tether Gold (XAUT), an on-chain gold-backed treasury on Nasdaq.

Incoming CEO Björn Schmidtke, who previously co-founded the Bitcoin mining company Penguin Group, said the new treasury is meant to create a new standard for digital wealth. “I am bullish on Bitcoin long term, but Tether Gold represents real, redeemable value — the true digital gold,” Schmidtke said.

Antalpha CFO Paul Liang said the partnership is a step to make digital gold easier for people to understand and use. “Digital assets will be more tangible to many when one can walk into a jewelry store and redeem a gold bar with Tether Gold,” he emphasized. Antalpha plans to use its Real-World Asset Hub to make gold redemptions simpler, so that holders can exchange tokens for real gold bars in the future.

Share Surge 17% Following the News

After the news, shares of Prestige Wealth, which still trade under the ticker PWM, jumped by about 17% on Friday, with its market value reaching around $57 million, according to Yahoo Finance. At the time of writing, the share is trading for $1.2190.

Flowra Launches Open Orderflow Auction for Solana Block Building

Solana's block building and MEV landscape is seeing a significant shift with Flowra's launch of the Open Orderflow Auction (OOA). This new system aims to decentralize transaction ordering, which is currently concentrated, by replacing reliance on private channels with an open auction where registered searchers compete. The goal is to improve competition and price discovery, allowing validators to capture more value from MEV. Early tests showed positive outcomes, including a 20.6% increase in compute units per block for one validator and reports of higher fees and robust uptime. Flowra also introduced a Programmable Block Policy, giving validators greater control over transaction inclusion for compliance needs, and partnered with Honeypot for sanctions screening. Inspired by Ethereum's successful model, Flowra believes Solana's high throughput is well-suited for open block-building auctions. The system is now available, with an institutional onboarding phase underway ahead of a broader rollout.

Besu Discloses Five CertiK-Identified Vulnerabilities Fixed in Latest Security Update

Ethereum client Besu has detailed five security vulnerabilities, ranging from Minor to Major severity, identified by blockchain security firm CertiK. All issues were fixed in the patched version 26.7.1, released on July 27. The vulnerabilities involved block-announcement processing, future-height consensus proposal buffering, WebSocket subscriptions, and JSON-RPC filter creation, which could under certain configurations exhaust node memory or thread capacity, affecting availability or consensus. CertiK discovered the vulnerabilities through independent adversarial testing on a private multi-node network. The 26.7.1 update introduced new configurable controls, including limits on active JSON-RPC filters and WebSocket subscriptions, along with a filter timeout. Besu urged node operators to upgrade promptly. Technical details were withheld until August 14 to provide a responsible disclosure window. The public security advisories now provide full remediation details.

Robotic GPT-3 Moment Shakes Silicon Valley: Zero Lines of Code, Learns Instantly, with Investments from Jensen Huang and Fei-Fei Li

Generalist AI's newly released robot foundation model GEN-1.5 is being hailed as the "GPT-3 moment" for embodied AI. The model demonstrates remarkable one-shot and few-shot learning capabilities in physical manipulation tasks. By watching a single 3-12 second demonstration video (physical prompting) without any training or code, the robot can attempt the task with a 59% average success rate across 10 tasks. With just 5 minutes of demonstration data and minimal fine-tuning (10 gradient steps), the success rate jumps to 83%. The most significant breakthrough is the emergence of spontaneous, improvisational problem-solving abilities not present in the training data. For instance, after learning to sweep blocks with a brush, the robot can adapt to use a banana similarly or switch to a completely new "scoop-and-pour" strategy when given a dustpan. Other emergent behaviors include removing obstacles, correcting errors, and spontaneously sorting objects. These capabilities stem from over 8 months of large-scale pre-training on physical interaction data, suggesting the existence of a Scaling Law for embodied intelligence—where model generalization improves with more data and training time. This approach drastically reduces the cost and expertise needed to teach robots new skills, potentially democratizing robot programming. The release coincides with a surge in the humanoid robotics sector, marked by events like the World Robot Conference and significant investments. While the demonstrated tasks are still relatively simple, the scaling trend and emergent behaviors point toward a future where general-purpose robot "brains" could be easily adapted to various hardware "bodies," reshaping the industry's competitive landscape.

Semiconductor Industry Sees a New Wave of Price Hikes, with STMicroelectronics, Maxscend and Others Increasing Prices Intensively

The semiconductor industry is experiencing a new wave of price increases driven by supply-demand dynamics and rising costs. Throughout August, multiple international and domestic semiconductor companies have issued price adjustment notices to clients, with a focus on analog and RF chips. Key companies adjusting prices include STMicroelectronics, which is implementing its third price hike in 2026 effective August 23, citing sustained demand pressure and rising costs across the supply chain. Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI) has also announced a second price increase for 2026, effective September 13, due to "unprecedented" demand growth and escalating manufacturing costs. In China, RF chip leader Zhuosheng Microelectronics issued a price adjustment notice for its full RF product line, effective September 1, its first hike this year, attributing it to rising raw material and foundry costs. Additionally, Chinese MCU manufacturer Nations Technologies announced a 10-20% price increase for some products from October 1. This new round of price hikes has shifted its focus to mature process nodes (e.g., analog, RF, power, MCUs), partly due to AI computing demand consuming 8-inch wafer capacity. This contrasts with the first half of 2026, when the surge was led by AI memory chips like HBM and server DRAM. Analysts note that the long lead time for expanding analog/power semiconductor capacity (18-24 months) may sustain price resilience in the short term. However, downstream manufacturers' cost tolerance and fluctuating global demand could become constraints, potentially limiting further significant price increases. Companies have linked the hikes to ensuring future supply stability by funding capacity expansion.

Cursor Launches the Strongest "Automatic Workhorse" Mode, /goal Dominates the Scene

Cursor's latest major update supercharges its Cloud Agents with autonomous, persistent workflows. The headline feature is `/goal`, transforming one-off tasks into continuous objectives—like fixing all flaky tests until CI stays green—where the Agent works unattended until the goal is met. New "Subscriptions" allow cloud-based Agents to autonomously monitor event sources like GitHub PRs, Slack threads, or schedules. An Agent can now own a PR from creation through merge, automatically handling CI failures or bot comments without human intervention. The update also enables sub-agents to run in isolated cloud VMs with their own project copies, allowing parallel work without conflicts. Additional tweaks include "Custom Modes" to lock an Agent into a specialized skill and "Steering," which queues user interruptions until the Agent's next tool call. Cursor reveals that over 35% of its internally merged PRs are now autonomously created by cloud Agents, up from 30% in February 2026. Accompanying this shift, the "Auto" pricing tier will transition to model-based billing starting August 24, making the cost of running these high-autonomy agents more granular. This evolution moves the developer's role from writing code to managing AI agents that handle coding, PRs, CI, and testing—fundamentally reshaping the software development pipeline.
