Acting Chairman Caroline D. Pham highlighted the potential of tokenized collateral to modernize collateral management and improve capital efficiency while ensuring responsible innovation in partnership with stakeholders. The initiative builds on the February 2025 Crypto CEO Forum and aligns with recommendations from the President’s Working Group on Digital Asset Markets. A pilot program is under consideration to test digital asset frameworks with clear regulatory guardrails. The CFTC is accepting public comments on the initiative through October 20, 2025.Cloudflare Supports x402 Payments ProtocolCloudflare, the world’s largest Content Delivery Network (CDN), integrated the x402 payments protocol into its Agents SDK and MCP Servers, enabling developers to build agentic commerce applications with pay-per-use payments for APIs, AI agents, and compute. Cloudflare and Coinbase also launched the x402 Foundation. The foundation aims to establish x402 as the universal standard for AI-driven payments across industries and platforms. x402 is an open protocol that extends the HTTP 402 Payment Required status code into a functional payment negotiation layer, supporting instant, stablecoin-based transactions and deferred settlement.Uniswap Introduces The Compact v1Uniswap introduced The Compact v1, an ownerless ERC-6909 contract for reusable resource locks that establishes a shared standard for cross-chain infrastructure. It abstracts away complexity, ensures interoperability, and enables composable cross-domain applications, moving beyond siloed escrow systems. Resource Locks are created when tokens are deposited into The Compact and represented as ERC-6909 tokens. On top of these, Compacts act as programmable commitments that define the rules for when and how locked resources can be claimed. The system already powers cross-chain swaps on UniswapX and is being adopted by LI.FI, Rhinestone, and others.ETHZilla Raises $350 MillionETHZilla, a digital asset treasury company, raised an additional $350 million through new convertible debt. The raise provides capital for ETHZilla to continue actively deploying ETH into DeFi and tokenized real-world assets. The company has accumulated an ETH treasury of 102,264 ETH at an average price of $3,949, currently worth about $462 million. ETHZilla currently ranks eighth among public ETH treasury companies.Other NewsNethermind road to zkYC x Coinbase onchain startupsCSM v2 onchain release voteEigenDA V2 core architectureWalletConnect builder rewardsReady Wallet mobile walletChaos Labs partners with EtherealTether raising at $0.5t valuationArbitrum bridge UX upgradeThe Rollup unveils control the streamThat's it for today!
