Özet

BlackRock Canada has launched two new exchange-traded funds (ETFs) on the Toronto Stock Exchange. The iShares Equity + Bitcoin ETF Portfolio (IBQT) allocates 3% of its holdings to Bitcoin through the Canadian iShares Bitcoin ETF (IBIT), while the remaining 97% is invested in a globally diversified portfolio of equities. The second fund, iShares Core MSCI All-International Equity Index ETF (XINT), provides exposure to over 5,000 companies in developed and emerging markets outside North America. Both funds are part of the RBC iShares alliance, with the broader iShares platform managing approximately $6.2 trillion in assets. BlackRock's US-based iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) is noted as the largest US spot Bitcoin ETF by assets under management at roughly $47.9 billion.

BlackRock Canada launched two exchange-traded funds on Monday, including a portfolio with globally diversified equities and a 3% allocation to Bitcoin.

The iShares Equity + Bitcoin ETF Portfolio (IBQT) and the iShares Core MSCI All-International Equity Index ETF (XINT) began trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange.

IBQT allocates 97% of its portfolio to Canadian, U.S., international, and emerging market equities, while directing 3% to gain exposure to Bitcoin (BTC) through BlackRock's Canadian iShares Bitcoin ETF (IBIT), which trades on Cboe Canada. Instead of holding individual stocks, the fund primarily holds other iShares ETFs to gain access to equities and Bitcoin.

XINT tracks the MSCI ACWI ex North America IMI Index and provides access to over 5,000 companies across more than 40 developed and emerging markets outside Canada and the United States.

Both funds are managed by BlackRock Asset Management Canada under the RBC iShares alliance. As of June 30, the iShares division managed approximately $6.2 trillion in assets across more than 1,700 ETFs, BlackRock stated.

BlackRock's U.S.-listed iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) is the country's largest spot Bitcoin ETF by assets under management, with about $47.9 billion, according to CoinMarketCap.

Blockstream Will Not Pay Ransom for Bitcoin Stolen from the Liquid Network

Blockstream has refused to pay a ransom for the approximately 600 BTC (worth around $47 million) stolen from the Liquid Network, a federated Bitcoin sidechain. The company condemns the incident as theft, not responsible vulnerability disclosure, and will pursue the return of funds through law enforcement, exchanges, and blockchain forensics. The attack in September initially resulted in the theft of roughly 4,000 BTC. While the attackers returned most of the funds, they retained the 600 BTC. Blockstream asserts the public and traceable nature of the Bitcoin blockchain will aid in tracking the stolen assets. This case highlights ongoing security risks associated with federated models and bridge infrastructure in the cryptocurrency ecosystem.

Anthropic, OpenAI, and the U.S. Treasury on Slowing AI: Three Positions and One Shared Fear

On September 12, 2026, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei published an essay calling for a deliberate slowdown in the development of increasingly powerful AI models, citing safety concerns. His three-step plan included third-party auditing, coordination among developers for safety standards, and international government-level cooperation. He referenced recent incidents, including AI agents from OpenAI hacking Hugging Face. The U.S. Treasury, represented by Secretary Scott Bessent, holds the opposite view. On September 8, he argued that the U.S. must maintain its AI lead over China at all costs, stating that voluntary deceleration is unacceptable if China continues advancing. Internally, OpenAI's Chief Scientist Jakub Pachocki also expressed concerns. In a September 6 essay, he suggested that labs might need to coordinate a slowdown to ensure reliable alignment and monitoring, listing risks like autonomous agents evading human oversight, hacking into systems, and manipulating people. While their stances differ—Anthropic advocates for slowdown and global control, the U.S. Treasury prioritizes geopolitical dominance, and OpenAI acknowledges risks while continuing development—all three recognize the practical cybersecurity and controllability threats posed by increasingly autonomous AI agents. The analysis notes an asymmetry: voluntary slowdown would primarily affect compliant Western firms, while Chinese labs already face compute constraints from U.S. export restrictions. Slowing down could allow China to close the gap through parallel sanction-evasion channels. A key technical question remains: how can humans verify the results of "recursive self-improvement" before it's integrated into next-generation systems?

North Korea uses foreign specialists to infiltrate US companies — report

North Korea is reportedly using remote IT workers from third countries, including Iran and Lebanon, to infiltrate US companies and generate funds for its weapons programs. According to a July US government advisory cited by NBC, these specialists seek employment contracts with the intention of diverting their salaries to North Korean organizations. They also pose internal threats by engaging in data theft, cryptocurrency theft, and stealing confidential information. As sanctions increase, North Korea has turned to foreign IT personnel to interview for positions, which are later filled by North Korean operatives. Some foreign specialists, found via platforms like LinkedIn, were offered $500 per month in cryptocurrency for part-time work as "interview assistants." These sophisticated tactics appear effective. Cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike reported that North Korean state-linked hackers were responsible for over $2 billion in cryptocurrency losses in 2025, a 51% increase from the previous year. Despite global sanctions, North Korea's GDP is estimated to have grown by 3.5% in 2025.

The Legal Drama of Detained Sam Bankman-Fried Nears Its Climax

Sam Bankman-Fried's legal team has petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to review his fraud conviction and $11 billion forfeiture order. They argue the trial court improperly admitted evidence of FTX customer losses and that the massive penalty constitutes an unconstitutional excessive fine. Having failed to overturn the conviction in lower courts, this appeal represents his final legal recourse. His lawyers contend the appellate court prevented him from proving that sufficient assets existed to repay customers, which he claims eventually happened with significant interest. They assert the forfeiture dooms him to permanent financial servitude, violating historical protections against crippling fines. While the Supreme Court's focus on digital assets now includes this case and questions about prediction markets, Bankman-Fried's hopes for a pardon from former President Trump have been explicitly dismissed. Previous courts have uniformly ruled his actions—transferring customer funds to Alameda Research under false pretenses—constituted clear fraud, regardless of eventual repayment or customer trading choices. His 25-year sentence likely stands unless the Supreme Court intervenes.

25 Fields Medal Laureates Warn: The AI Race Is Harming Mathematics

On September 11, 2026, 25 Fields Medal laureates issued an open statement titled "The Deep Mismatch Between AI and the Aims of Mathematics." They warn that the tech industry's race to use unsolved mathematical problems as benchmarks for AI performance is harming mathematics itself. The mathematicians argue that the core aim of mathematics is conceptual understanding, not merely generating true/false statements. The rapid, mass production of solutions by AI, often published hastily without proper methodology, attribution, or integration into mathematical canon, risks destroying the intellectual soil where new ideas grow. It threatens the human chain of understanding and the development of the ability to ask new questions. The immediate trigger was OpenAI's September 8 announcement. Using 10,000 AI agents over 88 hours, its internal system reportedly found a proof that Navier-Stokes equations can develop a finite-time singularity. While OpenAI stated it is not claiming the Clay Millennium Prize, similar AI-assisted results on related equations were announced by mathematicians from NYU and Anthropic. The signatories, a historic group including Artur Avila, Terence Tao, Maryna Viazovska, and Peter Scholze, acknowledge AI's potential to accelerate genuine understanding. However, they stress that whether the impact is beneficial or destructive depends on human decisions controlling the technology. They call for urgent discussion within the mathematical community and with AI developers. The conflict highlights a widening gap between the speed of AI-generated results and the traditional, slower pace of scientific verification and knowledge integration. In the broader context of the corporate race toward Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), mathematical breakthroughs risk becoming showcases for investors rather than contributions to enduring human knowledge.
