BlockBeats reported on September 13th that Strategy released its "Bitcoin Investor Guide," revised to September 7th, 2026, with market data as of September 4th. The guide, intended for professional investors, private investors, bankers, advisors, and capital allocators, systematically explains Bitcoin's monetary attributes, investment logic, market structure, portfolio roles, custody methods, and risks.

The core argument is that Bitcoin is no longer just a speculative asset, but is becoming the foundation of a new digital capital market—a scarce, open, and global reserve asset. Its long-term logic is built on scarcity, open access, global liquidity, and independent verification, and it may absorb some of the monetary premium currently attached to gold, real estate, stocks, bonds, and art.

Key data snapshot (as of September 4, 2026): Bitcoin price approximately $79,809, 200-week moving average approximately $64,715 (premium of approximately 23.3%); 1-year return approximately -28.3%, 10-year annualized return approximately 62.8%; 30-day average trading volume approximately $28.3 billion, open interest approximately $96 billion; spot ETFs hold approximately 1.27 million BTC, and the total network hashrate is approximately 935 EH/s.

The guidelines emphasize Bitcoin's positioning as "digital capital": with a maximum supply of 21 million coins locked, no issuer, no expiration date, and no contractual cash flow; its value primarily depends on scarcity and the market-assigned monetary premium. It can be held directly, transferred globally, and independently verified. Following the US SEC's approval of spot Bitcoin ETPs in January 2024, institutional access has significantly improved, and futures, options, and custody infrastructure continue to mature.

Regarding risk warnings, the guide points out that Bitcoin is highly volatile, has no repayment guarantee, and its price can plummet; self-custody versus third-party custody, ETPs, corporate securities, and derivatives all carry different legal, operational, and counterparty risks; transactions are irreversible, and lost keys can lead to permanent losses. Strategy, as a publicly traded company holding a significant amount of Bitcoin, has a vested interest in Bitcoin prices. The document explicitly states that it is for educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.

According to BlockBeats, on September 13, Loracle sold $8.68 million worth of HYPE spot trading in the past 24 hours, resulting in a loss of approximately $566,500.

According to Beating AI News, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman confirmed in an interview with Fortune that the company will not go public in 2026, stating that given the current AI security situation, now is "inappropriate" to go public.

Altman stated that OpenAI is not in a hurry to go public and will consider an IPO only after its business is ready and society can adapt to AI models with different capability levels. He also said that the company needs to prioritize solving AI safety and alignment issues and may slow down the development of cutting-edge models as AI capabilities reach new stages. Previously, it was reported that OpenAI considered postponing its IPO to 2027, with a potential valuation of $1 trillion.

Meanwhile, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei recently called for slowing down the development of cutting-edge AI and proposed granting independent evaluation agencies employee-level access. Sam Altman subsequently stated, "I agree with Dario Amodei (Anthropic CEO); we need to control the progress of cutting-edge models. This was a major topic of discussion at OpenAI recently. Promising independent evaluators employee-like access is a good idea, and we will do so. We will have more updates to share soon."

According to BlockBeats, on September 13, S&P Global Market Intelligence's Q2 "Voice of the Customer" survey showed that digital wallets have become the mainstream payment method for US consumers, but cryptocurrencies, stablecoins, and AI agents still face strong trust and security barriers.

The survey shows that 67% of respondents have used digital wallets in the past 90 days, and 45% use them weekly; in contrast, 68% of consumers have never been exposed to cryptocurrency, and 59% believe that cryptocurrency has no practical use. Awareness of stablecoins is only 16%, with main concerns including fraud risk (48%), fund security (46%), and "unnecessary" (39%).

Acceptance of AI agents is also limited, with 47% of respondents saying they would never allow AI to make purchases on their behalf. For consumers willing to use AI for payments, most still require human confirmation or only accept referrals.

S&P Global points out that regulatory clarity alone may not be enough to change consumers' attitudes toward stablecoins; issuers still need to address core trust issues such as fraud and fund security.
