In brief Two California ChatGPT users filed a proposed class action against OpenAI in the Northern District of California this month, alleging the company let outside contractors read real user conversations without proper disclosure. The complaint centers on “Project Lily,” an internal OpenAI program in which contractors hired through a staffing firm summarize user prompts and score chatbot answers on a 1-to-7 scale. OpenAI has until October 13 to respond in court; the plaintiffs want the “Improve the model for everyone” setting switched off by default and consent required before any human reads a chat. OpenAI is being sued over…

In brief StarkWare said the estimated cost of building a quantum-safe Bitcoin transaction fell from about $320 to roughly $67 in a week, as solvers in its Quantum-Safe Bitcoin Optimization Challenge optimized the brute-force search that runs on a user’s own GPU before hitting the chain. The leading records were held by developers running AI models, including Anthropic’s Opus 5 and Fable 5.1, with OpenAI’s GPT-6 Astra, Grok 4.6 and Kimi close behind. StarkWare cautioned the $67 is an estimate, not a price, and that the work doesn’t make Bitcoin quantum-safe on its own—it still favors a soft fork long-term.…

In brief The Senate’s failure to advance the Clarity Act shifted crypto rulemaking from Congress to regulators, likely for the foreseeable future. Within 48 hours, the SEC unveiled a tokenized-stock innovation exemption, the CFTC issued no-action relief and sent a rulemaking to the White House, and the Fed proposed stablecoin reserve and capital rules under the GENIUS Act. Industry figures have embraced the regulatory path as “more viable” for now, but agency rules are slower, easier to challenge in court, and easier for a future administration to unwind than a law. For nearly two years, the crypto industry’s Washington strategy…

Its analyst on the session covers U.S. gaming, lodging and leisure, the desk that also covers sportsbooks. Around 90% of prediction market turnover is sports, according to the summit’s co-founder, and the sector’s valuations assume that changes.
