Odaily News: Bitget has officially launched its rToken US stock transfer feature, currently supporting 3,000+ US stocks and ETFs. Users can transfer eligible stock assets from traditional brokerage accounts to Bitget, and upon arrival, the stocks will be automatically converted into spot US stock rTokens based on the corresponding share quantity. Bitget charges no fees throughout the entire transfer process.

After transfer, the rTokens can be directly integrated into Bitget's Universal Exchange (UEX) ecosystem, where they can be used for wealth management, lending, margin, and other yield-generating products, enhancing the capital efficiency and use cases of stock assets. To coincide with the feature launch, Bitget has simultaneously introduced a reward campaign featuring a total of $1 million in SpaceX stock tokens (rSPCX). Users can earn corresponding SpaceX stock rewards based on their transfer amounts, with rewards distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. Users can select the stocks and quantities they wish to transfer on the US stock transfer page and use the in-page reward calculator to view the estimated transfer amount and corresponding campaign rewards.

Bitget CEO Gracy Chen stated: "This feature is designed to help investors consolidate stock assets scattered across different brokerages into a unified ecosystem without selling their existing holdings, enabling flexible allocation across asset classes."

Odaily reports that according to an official announcement, Gate Card's automatic top-up feature has been comprehensively upgraded. It now connects spot accounts, Gate Money, Simple Earn, and stock accounts, supporting automatic transfers of 14 types of cryptocurrencies and tokenized stock assets. Users can customize the deduction order of accounts and assets, and when the card balance is insufficient, the top-up will be completed automatically, improving fund allocation efficiency and daily payment experience. Combined with the Gate Card points reward system, users can also use cryptocurrencies, gold-related assets, and tokenized stock assets redeemed through spending points for automatic top-ups, forming a complete closed loop of spending, points redemption, and asset utilization.

Previously, Gate announced a partnership with Visa to launch a crypto-linked card, with plans to expand related services to more than 40 markets worldwide. Users can use digital assets for payments at online and offline merchants that accept Visa, further exploring everyday use cases for digital assets. Visa's digital payment network covers more than 200 countries and regions, with over 175 million merchant acceptance locations.

This upgrade also enriches the integrated financial services scenarios of Gate Money. Gate Money integrates digital assets, fiat currency, stocks, ETFs, gold, bank accounts, and payment services into the Gate App, supporting eligible users in applying online for global bank electronic account services and completing fund receipts and payments, asset exchanges, and other operations. By connecting account funds, asset management, and consumer payments, Gate continues to expand the real-world application of digital assets, improving the service chain from account opening and fund management to asset allocation and daily spending.

The aforementioned investors said the new funding round means Zhiyuan will be unable to complete its IPO within this year.

Odaily News: Yi Lihua stated in a post that Bitcoin has support at the 400-day moving average around $81,000, and historically, every pullback that touched this level was followed by a rapid rebound; there is resistance at the 20-day moving average around $84,000, and if broken through quickly, it may retest the strong resistance level at $86,500, which is the $86,000 pullback point he has repeatedly focused on.

Odaily reports that former Mt. Gox CEO Mark Karpelès has publicly confirmed that a Ledger Flex purchased at Metapod in Singapore Changi Airport had a spy module implanted inside it. The device was bought by user Ben Yorke this summer and had never been used before being sent in for teardown due to suspicious scratches on its casing. Photos and videos of the teardown released by Karpelès show an additional circuit board and wiring hidden at the bottom of the device. It is a relatively new version of the implant, capable of eavesdropping on screen communications and other methods to steal users' seed phrases during setup. Previously, Ledger devices purchased through the Malaysian distributor CryptoBilis were also found to have been implanted, leading to the theft of over $86 million in assets. Devices purchased from official European distributors and in the Philippines have also been gradually discovered to show similar signs of implantation. The implants have progressively evolved from early hand-soldered modifications to more covert mass-produced circuit boards.

Odaily News: The 17,733 BTC transferred by the U.S. government to Coinbase Prime is a custody arrangement rather than a sell signal. Of these, 12,267 BTC related to the Bitfinex hack remain under the custodian's control, with only approximately 1,200 BTC potentially being sold.

Odaily: ASML Holding NV (ASML.O)'s capacity expansion guidance has become a key focal point on its earnings release day. As the semiconductor sector's rally loses momentum, investors are eager for signs of confidence, making the capacity guidance all the more significant. After a strong rally in the first half of the year, semiconductor stocks have recently cooled off. Following another decline in US chip stocks, South Korean chipmakers' shares fell to a two-month low on Tuesday. Over the next 48 hours, investors will closely watch the earnings performance of ASML and its key customer TSMC, hoping the two companies can shore up market confidence.

Ben Barringer, Head of Technology Research at Quilter Cheviot, said: "Capacity is the biggest focus for the market right now. With no visibility into order data and limited backlog information, it is crucial for the company to raise its capacity targets." ASML previously stopped disclosing quarterly order data, citing significant order volatility, and instead began providing guidance on the number of units it expects to produce this year and in the coming years. Investors are increasingly relying on this metric to gauge demand strength and ASML's ability to expand supply. (Jinshi)
