Tether’s gold token XAUT secures Shariah compliance certification, opening up the Middle East and global Muslim markets.

1 hours ago

Tether announced that its gold-backed digital asset XAUT has obtained Shariah compliance certification from Amanah Advisors, providing a compliant digital gold investment channel for global Muslim users, Islamic banks, and institutional investors. Tether stated that the certification confirms XAUT aligns with core principles of Islamic finance, enabling users to hold physical gold digitally via blockchain infrastructure. Each XAUT token represents direct ownership of physical gold stored in Swiss vaults, with no interest (riba), leverage, or speculative derivatives included in its structure. Amanah Advisors verified that XAUT issuer TG Commodities, S.A. de C.V. meets Islamic finance requirements, including: actual ownership of physical gold; transparent and verifiable asset reserves; no interest mechanism; no leverage or speculative derivatives; and a transparent reserve structure. Tether noted that gold has long played a key role in the Islamic financial system, and XAUT aims to bridge traditional gold value with blockchain technology to enhance global accessibility of digital gold. The certification is expected to drive XAUT adoption in Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, South Asia, parts of Africa, and global Islamic financial hubs, including digital gold services from Islamic banks, Shariah-compliant savings products, asset preservation solutions, and institutional-grade gold allocations.

Southern East adjusts the mechanisms for its multiple leveraged and inverse products, switching from fixed 2x leverage to maximum 2x leverage.

Southern Asset Management announced that, in response to recent revisions to relevant circulars by the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) and market changes, multiple of its leveraged and inverse products will be optimized and adjusted starting August 3, 2026, adopting a flexible leverage structure. After the adjustment, product leverage multiples will be dynamically adjusted daily based on market conditions, with a maximum cap of 2x or -2x. Products that previously had fixed 2x leverage will switch to a "maximum 2x leverage" model, meaning the actual leverage multiple may drop to around 1.1x during extreme market conditions. Meanwhile, some product names will be adjusted; for example, the "Southern Asset Management Berkshire Daily Leverage (2x) Product" will be renamed "Southern Asset Management Berkshire Daily Maximum Leverage (2x) Product". Southern Asset Management stated that fund managers will announce the target leverage multiple for the next trading day after the daily market close, and investors should note the product structure changes and related risks. Industry insiders pointed out that the adjustment is primarily in response to regulatory requirements, aiming to reduce the risk exposure of highly leveraged products during extreme market conditions. For investors, the return elasticity of leveraged ETFs in the future may be lower than during the period of fixed 2x leverage.

NVIDIA invests in a new AI lab co-founded by OpenAI, providing large-scale GPU computing power support.

According to a Wall Street Journal (WSJ) report, NVIDIA has invested in Safe Superintelligence (SSI) — the AI lab founded by former OpenAI chief scientist Ilya Sutskever — and the two parties have reached a long-term cooperation agreement. The deal aims to expand SSI’s computing resources while helping NVIDIA secure key clients in the AI sector. The companies stated that NVIDIA made a "large-scale" investment after reviewing some of SSI’s research progress, though the specific amount was not disclosed. As part of the partnership, SSI will gain access to a large volume of NVIDIA’s flagship GPU resources, which is expected to boost its computing power by an order of magnitude. Prior to this, SSI had relied primarily on Google’s TPU chips for AI research and development. The collaboration marks NVIDIA’s further expansion of its AI chip ecosystem, as it locks in future computing power demands by investing in top-tier AI labs. Founded in 2024 by Ilya Sutskever, SSI’s goal is to develop "safe superintelligence". The firm has previously raised around $2 billion in funding, with backers including Andreessen Horowitz and Sequoia Capital, and was valued at roughly $30 billion last year. This is not NVIDIA’s first investment in an AI company founded by a former OpenAI core member. In March this year, NVIDIA also invested in Thinking Machines Lab, established by former OpenAI chief technology officer Mira Murati, whose first AI model was trained on NVIDIA hardware. Ilya Sutskever is a leading researcher in modern artificial intelligence, who co-founded OpenAI and contributed to the development of large models like ChatGPT. However, after leaving OpenAI, he began to question the approach of advancing AI solely by scaling up data and computing power, shifting his focus to exploring new directions in superintelligence research.

The user wants me to create a headline for a Lookonchain tweet based on the given text. Let me identify the key information: - Tom Lee's Bitmine bought 9,946 $ETH ($19.38M) last week - Bitmine now holds 5,787,414 $ETH ($11.28B) - 4,917,189 $ETH ($9.58B) are staked Requirements: - Max 120 characters - Concise English headline - Keep tickers ($ETH), key amounts and names - No quotes, no hashtags, no trailing period I need to capture the most newsworthy element. The fact that Bitmine purchased a large amount of ETH and now holds a significant position seems most important. Let me draft options: 1. "Bitmine buys 9,946 $ETH, now holds 5.79M tokens worth $11.28B" 2. "Tom Lee's Bitmine purchases 9,946 $ETH, accumulates 5.79M token position" 3. "Bitmine adds 9,946 $ETH to position, total holdings reach 5.79M tokens" Let me count characters for option 1: "Bitmine buys 9,946 $ETH, now holds 5.79M tokens worth $11.28B" = 64 characters. Good, well under 120. Actually, I should consider what's most newsworthy - the recent purchase activity or the total holdings? The headline should probably emphasize the recent action (purchase) as the news hook. Option 2 is clearer about the recent purchase. Let me refine it. "Bitmine buys 9,946 $ETH, now holds 5.79M tokens worth $11.28B" - this is concise and hits the main points. Or maybe: "Bitmine accumulates 9,946 $ETH, total holdings reach 5.79M tokens" Let me count the best one: "Bitmine buys 9,946 $ETH worth $19.38M, total holdings reach $11.28B" = 68 characters This captures: the action (buys), the amount bought (9,946 $ETH), the price paid ($19.38M), and the total position value ($11.28B). Bitmine buys 9,946 $ETH worth $19.38M, total holdings reach $11.28B

Tom Lee(@fundstrat)'s #Bitmine bought 9,946 $ETH ($19.38M) last week. #Bitmine now holds 5,787,414 $ETH ($11.28B), with 4,917,189 $ETH($9.58B) staked.
