According to BlockBeats, on September 13, Swiss cryptocurrency platform Bitcoin Suisse stated in its "2026 Crypto Wealth Management Report" that the continued rise in AI investment, increasing government debt, and rising stock-bond correlation are weakening the risk diversification capabilities of the traditional "stock-bond combination," thus further increasing the necessity of Bitcoin allocation.

The report projects that major U.S. cloud computing companies will spend over $800 billion on AI this year, and potentially surpass $1 trillion by 2027. Bitcoin Suisse believes that AI investment is concentrated in a few technology companies, and the associated infrastructure construction, accompanied by substantial debt financing, may further amplify the concentration risk of investment portfolios.

Bitcoin Suisse's backtesting of traditional portfolios revealed that adding 1%, 2.5%, 5%, or 10% of Bitcoin to a portfolio of stocks, bonds, gold, and money market assets all improved absolute and risk-adjusted returns. Specifically, converting bond allocations to BTC increased the annualized return from 6.2% without BTC to 7.2% with 1% and 8.6% with 2.5%.

The report states that Bitcoin is not a traditional safe-haven asset, but its scarcity and yield drivers, which differ from those of stocks and bonds, promise to provide a new source of diversification for investment portfolios.

According to BlockBeats, on September 13th, BitMEX co-founder Ben Delo donated £36 million (approximately $49 million) to Reform UK, followed by an announcement from crypto industry figure Christopher Harborne of an additional donation of the same amount. The two donations totaled £72 million (approximately $97 million), setting a new record for both a single donation and total donation from a British political party.

Harborne stated that Delo's donation prompted him to follow suit, hoping the Reform Party would prepare for governance, and emphasized that he was "not seeking anything in return." Delo, in turn, said his donation aimed to ensure a "level playing field" in the next general election. Reform Party leader Nigel Farage welcomed both donations.

Previously, Farage was investigated for accepting large donations and gifts related to the crypto industry. These funds also sparked discussions within British political circles regarding the influence of crypto assets on politics and the regulation of political donations.

According to BlockBeats, on September 13, Iran's Tasnim News Agency, citing sources, reported that Iran and Oman have reached an understanding on the navigation and passage arrangements for the Strait of Hormuz after intensive consultations. The agreement is expected to be formally announced soon.

According to the agreement, the routes into the Persian Gulf will be entirely within Iranian territorial waters, and the routes out of the Persian Gulf will also be partially within Iranian territorial waters, with ships passing through according to Iranian arrangements. The source emphasized that this understanding does not mean the Strait of Hormuz will be reopened; the southern route, which the United States insists on opening, will remain closed.

Furthermore, Iran has presented the United States with seven conditions through intermediaries for reopening the Strait of Hormuz. The Strait of Hormuz will remain closed until these conditions are met and approved by Iran's highest-level authorities.

According to BlockBeats, on September 13th, OpenAI founder Sam Altman stated, "I agree with Dario Amodei (Anthropic CEO) that we need to control the progress of cutting-edge models. This is a major topic of discussion at OpenAI recently. Promising independent evaluators to have employee-like access is a good idea, and we will do so. We will have more updates to share soon."

Previously, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei published a lengthy article stating that the industry must slow down the pace of improving AI model capabilities. Slowing down doesn't mean stopping model training or technological advancements, but rather ensuring companies have sufficient time to align and protect their models.

Dario Amodei also proposed that leading AI companies in democratic countries coordinate to establish common security standards.
