ANON Jumps After Daniele Sesta Says Equilibra AMM Is Live on Robinhood Chain

ANON, the token tied to HeyAnon, surged after founder Daniele Sesta said he had deployed Equilibra, a custom automated market maker, on Robinhood Chain and linked the product directly to the token. CoinGecko data cited in the report showed ANON at $0.6967 at publication, up 220.5% over 24 hours after touching $1.00 intraday from a $0.2159 low. The token’s all-time low of $0.2033 was set on Sept. 10, one day before the announcement. Sesta described Equilibra as a custom AMM with adaptive fees, concentrated depth and optional auto-repeg, but his post did not include a contract address, documentation or a launch date. Robinhood Chain, an Arbitrum-based Layer 2 that went live on July 1, launched with Uniswap as its public liquidity protocol and Pleiades as a proprietary trading AMM. Equilibra now appears as a third-party AMM on that network. ANON’s deepest liquidity remains outside Robinhood Chain, with notable markets on Ethereum and Solana as well as trading on MEXC, Gate and KCEX. The token had previously peaked at $24.73 on Jan. 16, 2025, after HeyAnon’s DeFAI narrative gained traction.

US and UK lawmakers move to ban AI systems that exceed human intelligence

TIME reported that US Senator Bernie Sanders plans to introduce the Ban Artificial Superintelligence Act, a proposal that would prohibit the development of AI systems surpassing human intelligence and pause other advanced AI research until safety rules are in place. In the UK, lawmaker Alex Sobel has introduced a bill in the House of Commons described as the first attempt in a G7 parliament to ban “superintelligent AI,” defining it as a system that could weaken state power. Both proposals call on the US and UK governments to pursue a global treaty banning the development of superintelligent AI worldwide. They would also grant governments new powers to monitor and restrict potential “precursor systems.” ControlAI took part in drafting the legislation and called the effort a starting point for future AI regulation. Former OpenAI employee Daniel Kokotajlo and academic Stuart Russell warned that without oversight, AI could cause severe infrastructure damage and even lead to a loss of human control.

DIGITIMES says mature-node chip tightness may last beyond 2028

According to a report cited by ChainCatcher from DIGITIMES, companies in IC design and the broader semiconductor sector broadly expect the current supply-demand tightness in mature-node chips to last longer than previously anticipated. A common industry view is that chipmakers and customers will still be competing aggressively for production capacity through at least 2028, with price increases potentially becoming a normal feature of the market during that period. Some opinions cited in the report go even further, saying supply and demand for mature-node chips may still not return to a stable balance by 2030. People in the IC design industry also said end-market conditions are not especially strong overall at the moment. Instead, the main pressure is coming from cloud AI demand, which has reached a very large scale and is still expanding.

Intel said to plan 10% PC CPU price hike as MediaTek targets openings in low-power and edge AI markets

A DIGITIMES report said Intel is preparing to raise prices for personal computer processors by 10% in October as part of an effort to improve its financial profile, while also winding down lower-margin Small Core product lines through end-of-life measures. The report places that move against a softer PC shipment outlook, with global volumes projected to edge down from about 260 million units in 2026 to 250 million in 2027, even as memory and PCB costs rise. It argues that a pullback in low-power x86 offerings could leave more room for Arm-based suppliers. MediaTek is presented as one of the companies positioned to benefit. The report says the chip designer is pushing deeper into industrial IoT and edge AI through its low-power portfolio, including the Genio series, and through ecosystem efforts with partners such as Advantech. It also points to MediaTek’s participation in Arm Total Design and its chip architecture work with NVIDIA in automotive and AI PC applications. On the market side, MediaTek shares closed at TWD 4,760 on Sept. 7, near the previous high of TWD 4,970, while foreign investors and the three major institutional investor groups were described as returning to the stock.

Ray Dalio warns US Treasury market strains could mark a 2027 debt-cycle breaking point

Bridgewater Associates founder Ray Dalio said recent dislocations in the US Treasury market should not be dismissed as short-term noise. In a commentary published by TIME, Dalio argued that a mismatch between supply and demand for US government debt, rising long-dated Treasury yields even as the dollar weakens, and direct Treasury buying are warning signs that the United States has entered the late stage of a “Big Debt Cycle.” He described the country’s fiscal position as increasingly fragile, citing $32 trillion in publicly held federal debt, annual government revenue of about $5.5 trillion, spending of roughly $7.5 trillion, and interest costs nearing $1 trillion a year. Including around $10 trillion of debt that must be refinanced, Dalio said total debt-service needs are now about $11 trillion. Dalio said his historical work suggests big debt cycles typically last about 80 years, and he reiterated that the critical breaking point for this cycle could arrive around 2027, with a two-year margin on either side. He also listed nine red flags, including debt supply outpacing demand, long-term rates rising faster than short-term rates, shorter issuance maturities, fiat currency weakness against gold, and high rates hitting stocks, real estate, and the broader economy. For investors, he recommended broad diversification across countries and asset classes, avoiding long-duration bonds, and holding hard assets such as gold.

TIME’s OpenAI ‘Trust Us’ Cover Revives a Familiar Warning for AI Bulls

TIME’s OpenAI “Trust Us” cover revives an old warning for AI bulls. Magazine-cover indicators have a messy track record, the report says, yet this cover checks the classic conditions: a mainstream publication, a clearly understood theme, and years of rising investor enthusiasm.

Google releases TimesFM-3, a 330-million-parameter multivariate time-series forecasting model

Google’s research team has introduced TimesFM-3, a multivariate time-series forecasting foundation model with 330 million parameters. The model was pretrained on more than 1 trillion time points drawn from real-world and synthetic series, and it can handle multiple targets, historical covariates, and known future covariates without task-specific fine-tuning. According to MarkTechPost, TimesFM-3 ranked first on average among pretrained foundation models across point forecasting and probabilistic metrics on the GIFT-Eval, fev-bench, and TIME leaderboards. The release also comes with a usage limitation: weights for version 3.0 are under a non-commercial, non-production-use license, which means they cannot be used in production forecasting APIs. The update was reported by Techub News in a brief citing MarkTechPost.
