According to Huoxun Finance on February 27, Cointelegraph has reminded that the White House has set March 1 as the deadline for resolving the stablecoin rewards controversy and advancing the Clarity Act.

Huoxun Finance reported on February 27th that, according to Jinshi, Trump Media Technology Group (DJT.O) is discussing spinning off its assets, including the social media platform "TruthSocial," into a new publicly traded company. This comes after the company completed a $6 billion merger with nuclear energy company TAE Technologies. The company stated that the spun-off company's stock will be allocated to Trump Media Technology Group's registered shareholders before the TAE transaction is completed, and then the spun-off company will merge with the special purpose acquisition company "Texas Ventures Acquisition III." This spin-off aims to separate Trump Media Technology Group's social media business from its investments in commercial nuclear fusion, as the company hopes to leverage the huge energy demand generated by the artificial intelligence boom for its own development. Both companies noted that negotiations are still ongoing and no final agreement has been reached.

Odaily Planet Daily reports that Nisha Surendran, Head of Digital Asset Custody Development at Citibank, announced at an industry event hosted by Strategy that Citibank plans to integrate Bitcoin into its core banking business later in 2026, offering institutional-grade custody services, key management, and a wallet system. The platform will extend traditional tax reporting, compliance, and risk management processes to Bitcoin holdings, and will support 24/7 operation, SWIFT global transfer messaging, and API connectivity. Citibank currently manages approximately $30 trillion in assets, and this move aims to remove operational barriers to crypto assets for institutional investors such as pension funds and insurance companies. Surendran stated that the initial phase will focus on core custody functions, with subsequent expansion to include asset segregation and collateral management services.

Huoxun Finance News, February 27th - According to Bloomberg, Toby Pohlen, co-founder of Elon Musk's artificial intelligence company xAI, announced his departure today. He stated on the social media platform X, "Today is my last day at xAI," and jokingly remarked that "no one on the team can stay up all night better than you guys," adding that he plans to "get more than eight hours of sleep first." This is the fourth xAI co-founder to publicly resign in the past three months. Since the company's founding in 2023, seven of the 12 founding members have confirmed their departure, including former Google scientist Tony Wu, University of Toronto professor Jimmy Ba, and Groq founding member Greg Yang.

According to Odaily Planet Daily, Vitalik Buterin stated in an article on the X platform that Ethereum scaling is divided into short-term and long-term parts. In the short term, the Glamsterdam upgrade will introduce a block-level access list to enable parallel verification, ePBS will allow for a larger proportion of time slots to be used for block verification, and gas repricing will ensure that operational costs are aligned with actual execution time. A multi-dimensional gas mechanism will be implemented in stages. Firstly, in Glamsterdam, the cost of "state creation" will be separated from the cost of "execution and calldata," with state creation gas not included in the approximately 16 million transaction gas cap. At the EVM level, a "reservoir" dimension mechanism will be introduced, prioritizing the consumption of dedicated dimension gas by default, and consuming from the reservoir when insufficient. Later, it will transition to multi-dimensional pricing, with different dimensions having different floating gas prices. Long-term scaling includes ZK-EVM and blobs. Regarding blobs, the plan is to continuously iterate PeerDAS, aiming to achieve a data processing capacity of approximately 8MB per second. In the future, Ethereum block data will directly enter the blob. The ZK-EVM rollout will proceed in phases: in 2026, validator clients supporting ZK-EVM will be available, allowing approximately 5% of the network to run; in 2027, this will be expanded to a larger proportion of a small number of nodes, while formal verification will be promoted; once conditions are ripe, it will transition to a three-out-of-five mandatory proof mechanism, ultimately continuously improving the security and formal verification level of ZK-EVM, and involving VM changes such as RISC-V.
