Grayscale Launches Bittensor Trust Ahead of Halving

Grayscale has brought its Bittensor Trust to public markets under the ticker GTAO on OTCQX, making the TAO token accessible to a wider set of investors. Previously private since its August 2024 launch, the trust is Grayscale’s latest single-asset vehicle aimed at providing exposure to a decentralized, AI-focused blockchain. Grayscale operates multiple cryptocurrency investment products, including ETFs, single-asset trusts, and index funds, with a history of expanding altcoin access to public investors.

The Bittensor network is scheduled for its first halving on December 14, which will reduce the emission of TAO tokens and increase scarcity. TAO supports an AI-driven, decentralized blockchain ecosystem where participants earn tokens for contributing computing resources to subnets and applications. The network’s capped supply of 21 million TAO mirrors Bitcoin-style halving cycles, aligning incentive structures with long-term scarcity principles.

Currently limited to accredited investors, GTAO will report financial statements to the SEC, providing transparency for institutional participants. Grayscale positions Bittensor as an open ecosystem for collective intelligence, emphasizing decentralized and transparent AI development. The trust expands exposure to AI-driven blockchain infrastructure while complementing Grayscale’s growing portfolio of altcoin and digital asset investment products.

American Bitcoin and ProCap Expand BTC Holdings Despite Recent Stock Declines

American Bitcoin Corp expanded its Bitcoin holdings during the week ended December 8, adding 416 BTC to bring its total reserve to 4,783 BTC. The company, majority owned by Hut 8 and co-founded by Eric Trump, said its Satoshis Per Share metric rose to 507, reflecting a more than 17% increase over the past month. Shares of ABTC were modestly higher on December 10 but remain well below levels seen before a sharp selloff earlier in December.

ProCap Financial, which recently finalized its SPAC merger and is led by Anthony Pompliano, also added to its Bitcoin position. The company purchased 49 BTC, lifting its total holdings to 5,000 BTC. ProCap said the transaction created a realized loss that can be used to offset future taxable gains, framing the move as part of a broader tax optimization strategy. Its shares also ticked higher in early trading, though the stock has declined significantly over the past several sessions.

Both firms continue to expand their balance-sheet exposure to Bitcoin as part of their corporate strategies, positioning themselves among the largest publicly traded holders of the asset. According to industry data, ProCap and American Bitcoin now rank as the 21st and 22nd largest public companies by BTC holdings.

Kalshi Wins Temporary Pause on Connecticut Enforcement

A federal judge granted Kalshi temporary relief from Connecticut regulators, halting enforcement actions as the company challenges state claims that its markets constitute illegal gambling.

Kalshi Wins Temporary Pause on Connecticut Enforcement

Prediction markets platform Kalshi has won a temporary pause on enforcement actions from Connecticut regulators after filing a lawsuit challenging state claims that its event-based contracts constitute illegal gambling. US District Judge Vernon Oliver ordered the Department of Consumer Protection (DCP) to refrain from taking action while the court reviews Kalshi’s request for preliminary relief. The ruling follows DCP’s cease-and-desist notices issued on December 2 to Kalshi, Robinhood, and Crypto.com over alleged unlicensed sports-related wagering.

Kalshi contends that its markets, which allow trading on outcomes of future events, are federally regulated derivatives products overseen by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. The company obtained designated contract market status from the CFTC in 2020 and argues that Connecticut’s gambling laws are preempted by federal regulation. The lawsuit also seeks to prevent state action that could disrupt operations.

Under the court schedule, Connecticut must respond to Kalshi’s complaint by January 9, 2026, with the company filing additional arguments by January 30. Oral arguments are expected in mid-February. The decision provides temporary relief but signals an ongoing legal confrontation between state authorities and federally regulated derivatives platforms. Kalshi has faced similar challenges this year in Arizona, Illinois, Montana, and Ohio, highlighting broader tension between state gambling regulations and federal oversight of digital and event-based trading markets.

Strive Launches $500 Million ATM Offering for Bitcoin

Strive, the Nasdaq-listed structured finance firm co-founded by Vivek Ramaswamy, announced a $500 million at-the-market offering of its Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Preferred Stock (SATA) on December 9. The offering will be conducted under a sales agreement with Cantor Fitzgerald, Barclays, and Clear Street, allowing shares to be sold directly to the market at prevailing prices over time.

The proceeds are intended to fund future Bitcoin acquisitions alongside general corporate purposes. The SATA stock carries a 12.00% annual dividend, with the company retaining the ability to adjust the rate. The program follows Strive’s upsized SATA IPO in November, which saw 2 million shares priced at $80 per share, trading on the Nasdaq Global Market.

Strive operates as a publicly traded Bitcoin treasury firm, holding 7,525 BTC as of Nov. 7, and aims to increase BTC-per-share over time. The ATM offering provides flexibility for incremental capital deployment while supporting Strive’s broader objective of enhancing shareholder exposure to Bitcoin through structured financial instruments.

IMF Flags Stablecoins as Emerging Market Risk

The IMF warns that USD-pegged stablecoins could undermine local currencies in emerging markets, though experts say their market size is not yet significant.

IMF Flags Stablecoins as Emerging Market Risk

The International Monetary Fund’s December 2025 report cautions that USD-pegged stablecoins could facilitate currency substitution and capital outflows in emerging markets, potentially weakening local currencies and central bank control. According to IMF, stablecoins could bypass traditional capital flow management measures, allowing transactions outside established financial intermediaries.

Despite these concerns, experts argue that the stablecoin market remains too small to produce systemic macroeconomic effects. The combined market capitalization of major stablecoins, including USDT and USDC, stands near $264 billion, a fraction of global foreign exchange flows and the US dollar’s entrenched role in the financial system. Most stablecoins continue to serve primarily as on-ramps for crypto trading rather than broad-based treasury tools.

Emerging markets, particularly in Africa, the Middle East, Latin America, and the Caribbean, account for notable stablecoin inflows relative to GDP. However, these flows remain a small portion of the overall global payments ecosystem, limiting immediate macroeconomic disruption despite the theoretical risk outlined by the IMF.

PNC Introduces Direct Bitcoin Trading for Private Bank Clients

PNC Bank has begun offering spot Bitcoin trading to clients of its private bank, becoming one of the first major US lenders to allow direct digital asset transactions within existing investment accounts. The rollout marks the initial phase of a broader integration with Coinbase, following a partnership announced earlier this year.

The service connects Coinbase’s institutional trading and custody infrastructure to PNC’s platform, enabling clients to execute trades and hold balances without shifting assets to external platforms. Executives said the move is aimed at retaining client relationships as interest in digital assets grows, even if near-term trading demand remains limited. PNC had previously provided access only to passive Bitcoin and Ether ETFs.

The bank expects to expand direct trading access to institutional accounts, nonprofits, endowments, and foundations early next year. The launch aligns with a wider trend across Wall Street, as firms including Bank of America and Vanguard broaden their crypto offerings to meet evolving client expectations.

Tempo Launches Public Testnet for Payments-Focused Blockchain

Tempo, the payments-focused blockchain valued at roughly $5 billion following its recent Series A raise, launched its public testnet on December 9. The protocol is designed to provide instant settlement, low fees, and a stablecoin-native experience, targeting capabilities it says most general-purpose blockchains lack for financial applications.

The firm completed a $500 million Series A in October backed by Thrive Capital, Greenoaks, Sequoia Capital, Ribbit Capital, and SV Angel. Stripe and Paradigm, which incubated the project, did not participate in the round. Tempo is building an Ethereum-compatible Layer 1 optimized for high-throughput payments and is working with companies including OpenAI, Shopify, Visa, Anthropic, and Deutsche Bank.

Klarna recently issued KlarnaUSD, a USD-backed stablecoin on Tempo, with plans for a mainnet launch in 2026. Tempo positions itself as purpose-built for real-world payments, drawing on Stripe’s global payments expertise and Paradigm’s focus on crypto infrastructure.

ASIC Broadens Stablecoin Relief for Intermediaries

ASIC Broadens Stablecoin Relief for Intermediaries

Australia’s Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) has finalized a new phase of relief for stablecoin and wrapped token intermediaries, extending licensing and custody exemptions. The measures allow intermediaries engaged in secondary distribution to operate without separate licenses, provided they hold appropriate Australian Financial Services (AFS), market, or clearing facility authorizations. The relief also permits providers to maintain digital assets in omnibus accounts, subject to sound record-keeping and reconciliation processes.

This decision builds on ASIC’s September guidance and aims to streamline operations while supporting innovation in Australia’s digital asset and payment sectors. Eligible stablecoins must maintain full reserves and unconditional redemption rights, while wrapped tokens require equivalent backing. Issuers are mandated to publish quarterly and annual audited reserve reports to ensure transparency and compliance with financial product regulations.

Industry observers welcomed the update as a pragmatic balance between regulatory oversight and operational efficiency. By clarifying custody and licensing frameworks, ASIC seeks to reduce friction for intermediaries, promote responsible stablecoin issuance, and foster the growth of Australia’s blockchain ecosystem.
