Crypto trader Unipcs (Bonk Guy) posted on X that tokens PONS on Robinhood, USELESS on Solana, MARSCOIN on BNB Chain, and BASECAT on Base will jointly launch the current cycle. He noted that while the market focused on Robinhood Chain last week, Solana, BNB Chain, and Base are expected to become the next hotspots.
Odaily Planet Daily reports that Gate has listed seven hot meme-related assets on its contracts platform in recent days, adding coverage across BNB Chain, Solana, Base and Robinhood Chain. The new names are Niu Lai, BASECAT, ANSEM, MARSCOIN, PONS, CASHCAT and FONE. Niu Lai, a meme built around a Chinese cultural film IP, led the pack with a maximum gain of 288%. MARSCOIN, carrying a Mars-space concept, climbed as much as 99%. PONS and FONE gained up to 69% and 47% respectively; CASHCAT and BASECAT advanced 34% and 25%. Along with ANSEM and others, these additions deepen Gate's meme contract universe across topics ranging from Chinese culture and cats to KOLs, mobile trading and early-stage chain ecosystems. The report notes that meme market hotspots are rotating outward from one theme to multi-chain and multi-ecosystem narratives. Gate is expanding its trading lineup around popular assets and new stories to offer traders a richer and faster set of choices.
A panel at the FinTechOn 2026 AFA Summit brought together regulatory and industry representatives from Taiwan, Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong, Abu Dhabi and Thailand to discuss stablecoins and cross-border governance. The shared view was clear: stablecoins derive much of their value from cross-border use, so regulatory coordination across jurisdictions is essential. Speakers argued that a purely domestic stablecoin model would give up one of blockchain’s main strengths in global trade and payments. They also said regulators need to move faster, as technology is advancing more quickly than rulemaking, and that common standards should be discussed before conflicting frameworks harden. Taiwan’s representative said the island’s dedicated law for virtual asset services is expected in the first quarter of next year, with subordinate rules set to address potential financial stability concerns, including the possibility of funds shifting from traditional bank deposits into stablecoin reserves. Panelists from Japan, Thailand and Abu Dhabi also outlined local progress, from Japan’s trial-and-error approach to cross-border rollout, to Thailand’s multi-chain stablecoin work, and Abu Dhabi’s focus on operational and concentration risks.

Thailand’s Securities and Exchange Commission has opened a public consultation on a proposal that would let licensed domestic derivatives intermediaries offer certain overseas digital asset derivatives to retail, high-net-worth, and ultra-high-net-worth investors. The plan does not amount to a blanket opening for Thai retail traders to access all offshore crypto exchanges. Instead, eligible products would need to match local market specifications on underlying assets, contract tenor, leverage, and settlement terms, with fixed-expiry contracts generally set at no less than one month. The proposal also requires trading on derivatives exchanges that use central counterparty clearing and are supervised by regulators meeting specific IOSCO multilateral memorandum standards, or are members of the World Federation of Exchanges. Thailand’s SEC said products such as perpetual contracts and contracts for difference will likely struggle to qualify for retail distribution because many trade on offshore venues without central clearing or clear financial oversight. Products that fail the proposed tests would be limited to institutional investors. The consultation runs through Sept. 30, while final rules and an effective date have not been set.
