Funds are SAFU on Kaia based assets including USDT on Kaia, no assets affected by the incident. We're actively monitoring the situation and in talks with security firms to strengthen the network security.

Most people outside web3 haven't tried onchain FX on stablecoin rails yet, let alone local ones. Once they do, the difference is real. That's what @RatioFX is building with @idrx_co: not just faster, cheaper FX, but a new way to settle cross-border, built for the age of agents.

Over the past 30 days, DEX volume on @KaiaChain rose 35%.
Staking and yield protocols also ended the period with more assets on their platforms.
Explore Kaia on Skynet and read this thread to see which protocols are seeing growth beyond trading: skynet.certik.com/projects/k… 🧵👇

Malaysia and Thailand's central banks just joined MAS's BLOOM, with Visa, Mastercard and Maybank on the industry side. Minting tokens was never the hard part. Regulators moving forward together on cross-border settlement is what will push onchain FX ahead as a whole.

⏱️ Done is done
More than half of the top chains now give you final confirmation in 0 seconds. No waiting, no "are we sure yet"
Some still need 12s, and Ethereum takes nearly 13 minutes
Who's actually instant? 👇

@KaiaChain
Running a chain is hard, especially without a defensible moat. Still pushing it hard with @KaiaChain! Thankful for the builders we have on keeping Asia stable and connected.
Distribution is the key.

BTQ CEO @olivierfrancois joined @FoxBusiness to discuss our three-year QSSN deal with @KaiaChain, one of the largest planned deployments of post-quantum encryption, and BTQ’s broader growth opportunity as industries prepare for a quantum-enabled world. $BTQ

The rest of Asia has moved. Korea is still deciding.
Hong Kong licensed its first stablecoin issuers in April. Japan's yen stablecoin has been live since October 2025. Singapore is writing its framework into law. Korea passed its tokenized-securities law in January and reopened its exchanges to corporations, but the Digital Asset Basic Act, the statute that would license a won stablecoin, remains in committee over a single question: who gets to issue it.
While that question sits unanswered, net stablecoin outflows from Korean exchanges have run for eighteen consecutive months, about $10.4 billion in total, almost all of it in dollars. The demand for onchain assets is there. It is being served offshore.
Today we are publishing The Seoul Standard, a joint research report with @redstone_defi written for the allocators, funds and institutions weighing Korea. It covers:
- A decade of Korean digital asset legislation, from the 2017 ICO ban to VAUPA, and why each crisis produced the next statute
- What DABA and the enacted STO framework require of institutions, and the bank-versus-fintech dispute stalling one of them
- How a won stablecoin, tokenized deposits and tokenized securities could put inert KRW balances to work onchain
- Bear, base and bull scenarios with dated triggers, plus a sourced risk register

Alpaca already has broker-dealer + MSB license from the US. SG is a solid follow-thru. Trading (onchain) securities soon?
Alpaca is expanding our regulatory presence to Singapore, furthering our global regulatory footprint! 🇸🇬
Our Southeast Asian headquarters, Alpaca Securities Pte. Ltd. (“Alpaca Singapore”), has received In-Principle Approval (IPA) from the @mas_sg for a Capital Markets Services (CMS) license!
Once fully licensed, Alpaca Singapore plans to provide local brokerage and custodial services, acting as a regulated local counterparty for financial institutions and fintechs across the region.
“As financial institutions across Southeast Asia look to meet growing customer demand for international investing, Singapore is a natural hub for connecting the region’s investors to global markets. This milestone strengthens our ability to support institutions locally with global brokerage infrastructure, regional expertise, and a strong regulatory foundation. We’re excited to help our partners expand the markets and investment products available to their customers and shape the next era of investing across Southeast Asia,” said Rohit Mulani, President of Alpaca Southeast Asia.
Disclosure: An in-principle approval (IPA) reflects MAS' view that a license may be issued to the applicant upon the fulfillment of specified conditions and provided there are no material adverse developments affecting the applicant. An IPA does not constitute a license for Alpaca Securities Pte. Ltd. to provide brokerage and custodial services at this juncture. MAS reserves the right to rescind the IPA in circumstances where it considers appropriate.

Double-digit yields are back, thanks to @SuperEarnX and Klip Wallet @AhnLab_ABC.
You can now unlock up to 17% APY on your Kaia-based USDT.
All it takes is a 100 USDT minimum, held for 30 days. 👇

💸 Nobody wants to spend more on fees than on the actual transaction
Some blockchains kept costs close to zero, making everyday on-chain activity much more practical
Here are the mainnets with the lowest average tx fees over the past 30 days 👇

Dear BitMEX Users,
Today, we share with a very heavy heart that BitMEX exchange will shut down its operations, effective 23 September 2026 at 04:00:00 UTC.
The owner and operator of BitMEX, HDR Global Trading Limited, has made the difficult decision to close operations following a strategic review of the business.
It may not look the same today, but we are proud of our 11+ year legacy and the role we played in shaping the crypto industry. We invented the 100x leverage perpetual swap, which for most of you, was the first step to your crypto trading journey. It is now the most traded financial product in the crypto industry, adopted by thousands of users and exchanges. And we remain proud of our robust security infrastructure, which has allowed us to maintain a flawless track record of 0 customer funds lost to hacks in our entire operating history.
We want to reassure you that your assets remain fully safe and under your control during this transition period. This announcement is just to give enough time to ensure a smooth withdrawal process for everyone.
From today we strongly encourage all users to close their positions and withdraw their funds as soon as convenient. For more details on the full process, please read our blog: bitmex.com/blog/bitmex-closu…
BitMEX was once home to some of the greatest traders today. Our team has dedicated tremendous effort and passion into building the platform into what it is, and we are glad to have reached some of you during your time with us. To everyone who has traded, supported, and grown alongside us - thank you for your trust over the last 11 years.
The BitMEX Team
