Goldman, Citi Commit $270M to Their Own Stablecoin: Can Tether and Circle Hold On？

Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, Santander and Deutsche Bank have committed about $270 million to Project Faro, a joint bank stablecoin. The money funds five years of running a planned US issuer that targets a 2027 launch.　　Stablecoins are crypto tokens pegged to $1. Tether‘s USDT and Circle’s USDC hold about 85% of a $290 billion market. Circle shares fell on two earlier reports of rivals.　　Sponsored　　Sponsored　　Why Circle Shares Drop on Bank Stablecoin News　　Circle earns most of its money from interest on the cash and Treasury bills backing USDC. Its reserves returned 3.5% in the third quarter, on $73.3 billion of average USDC in circulation, per its results.　　A bank-issued token holds the same kind of reserves. Any balances that shift to it would earn that interest for the banks instead.　　Circle stock fell 5% on June 30 after Bloomberg reported on Open USD, a rival stablecoin backed by Visa, Stripe and more than 100 firms.　　It dropped another 4% on August 26, when the Wall Street Journal reported this bank groups plans. The stock fell again Tuesday amid reports of the $270 million commitment.　　Circle Stock (CRCL) Performance.

Securitize agrees to buy River One to expand into asset-backed lending

BlackRock-backed tokenization platform Securitize agreed to buy River One, a New York financing firm, in a deal that would expand the tokenization company into asset-backed lending, the company said Monday.　　The deal would add a new financing layer to Securitizes platform, expanding into asset-backed lending, according to a Monday release.　　River One is developing technology that would let lenders tap stablecoin funding.

The acquisition is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2026.　　Securitize ranks as the second-largest real-world asset (RWA) platform with $3.7 billion in total RWA value. Ondo ranks first with $4.1 billion, according to RWA.xyz.　　Securitize announced the deal alongside Q3 results. Revenue rose 13% from a year earlier to $18.6 million, while the company posted a $66.3 million net loss. Securitize said about $60 million of the loss reflected largely noncash expenses and accounting charges tied mainly to its business combination and public listing.　　Cointelegraph reached out to Securitize and River One for comment.　　Related: Securitize falls 16% after

Nearly 16.5% of that value has since disappeared.　　Sponsored　　Sponsored　　Bitcoin price chart.

HIVE adds 79 BTC as Riot and CleanSpark sell Bitcoin reserves

HIVE Digital Technologies has added 79 Bitcoin to its treasury during the September quarter, lifting its holdings to 269 BTC while Riot Platforms and CleanSpark have reduced their reserves.　　HIVE‘s SEC filing, released alongside its Nov. 9 results, recorded 269 BTC as of Sept. 30, compared with 190 BTC in its June filing. The period is calendar Q3 and the company’s fiscal second quarter of 2027.　　HIVEs Bitcoin treasury grows despite substantial sales　　Comparing the two filings shows that HIVE mined 1,070 BTC and sold 991 BTC during July through September.

DeepMind says its AI agents ran a four-day cryptography test with about 20 human messages

Google DeepMind says two AI agents reproduced a known 1024-bit cryptography computation over nearly four days with about 20 human messages, mostly approvals, carrying the research through coding, large-scale execution and debugging.　　The test concerns RSA digital signatures. After billions of advance queries to a simulated signing service, the agents computed a mathematical root needed for a new signature once access ended. They did not recover a private key.　　The working paper reports 391 CPU core-years for the completed computation, compared with an earlier teams rounded 1,380 on the same instance and algorithm. That is about a 3.5-fold reduction in measured CPU use. GPU work and preliminary probes are excluded.　　Related Company Google An American multinational technology company　　DeepMind researcher @pushmeet announced the work on Nov. 6, describing a sandboxed reproduction of a previously solved benchmark instance. The papers say these results do not threaten deployed cryptosystems based on 2048-bit or larger RSA.　　The human chose the problem, instance and limits on the signing service, then approved conditions for irreversible steps. According to the paper, the researcher wrote no code, launched no jobs and diagnosed no faults.　　A supervisor agent maintained the design, budgets and checks.

Crypto exchange Mercado Bitcoin will resume deposits and withdrawals in Brazilian reais via Pix, the countrys instant payment system, next week, a company representative told Cointelegraph. The restart will come more than 15 days after an attack drained an estimated $49 million from wallets linked to the exchange.　　Customers will only be able to withdraw funds to accounts in their own name. Mercado Bitcoin will also credit customers accounts with proceeds from the settlement of fixed income products. Crypto deposits and withdrawals remain suspended, with no date set for their return.　　Mercado Bitcoin, one of Brazil‘s largest crypto exchanges, began restoring access on Monday, a week after the attack, by allowing customers to view their accounts in read-only mode. Customers who regain access are directed to a page detailing the exchange’s security measures and regular audits since 2018, with a link to a separate account of the incident.　　Fabricio Tota, Mercado Bitcoins vice president of new business, outlined the next phase in a recent video. The exchange has yet to publish a rollout schedule on its website.　　“The resumption will proceed gradually, and the rollout of additional services will be communicated to clients in advance through MBs official channels,” the representative said.　　The Nov. 2

Poland passes sanctions bill covering crypto asset freezes

Polands lower house has passed a sanctions bill covering cryptocurrency freezes by 240 votes to 202, sending the proposal to the Senate for consideration.　　The Sejms voting record shows that lawmakers approved the government-backed Act on Restrictive Measures during its Nov. 6 sitting. The proposal would give authorities a national framework for imposing sanctions and enforcing restrictions on money, property, and other assets.　　As crypto.news previously reported on Nov. 9, the legislation still requires Senate consideration and presidential approval before becoming law.　　Polands crypto freeze proposal targets sanctioned holders　　In its original draft, the government explicitly included crypto assets within the definition of financial funds, alongside bank deposits, account balances, securities, dividends and credit.　　The crypto definition refers to Article 3 of the European Union‘s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation, known as MiCA. The draft defines freezing as preventing movements, transfers, use, or transactions that change an asset’s ownership, location, value, or availability.　　Restrictions would apply to people and entities placed on a national sanctions list maintained by the interior minister. The proposed listing grounds include support for sanctioned states, certain personal or financial connections, and foreign interference or information manipulation directed against Polands security.　　Banks and exchanges holding assets for listed customers would have to comply with
