Figure Urges US Treasury to Adopt Malaysia's 24/7 Bond Platform Model
Figure co-founder Mike Cagney is calling on the US Treasury to look to Malaysia's 24/7 tokenized bond platform as a model. Bank Negara Malaysia's SSDS+ system separates tokenized bond ownership records from central bank money settlement, enabling round-the-clock settlement. Cagney argues that a similar approach in the US could lower Treasury issuance and registration costs while attracting more buyers, though he offered no cost estimates. Figure itself is pushing native onchain issuance across networks including Provenance, Solana, Stellar, and Base.

Stablecoins as Cash Equivalents: What the FASB Might Change
The FASB is weighing guidance that would let qualifying stablecoins be classified as cash equivalents under current U.S. GAAP. The proposal does not declare stablecoins to be cash, nor would it automatically qualify USDC, USDT, or all dollar-pegged tokens. Instead, it clarifies how the existing cash-equivalent definition applies when a digital asset has adequate reserves, reliable redeemability, and a qualifying contractual right to redemption. If adopted, this accounting treatment could make stablecoins more usable for corporate treasury and cross-border settlement, though issuer, reserve, redemption, blockchain, and regulatory risks remain.

2026 Nobel Economics Prize Honors a New Foundation for Macroeconomic Policy
Robert E. Hall and Michael Woodford won the 2026 Nobel Prize in Economics for laying the microeconomic foundations of macroeconomic stabilization. Their New Keynesian framework rebuilt Keynesian arguments for government and central bank responses to recessions and inflation, starting from household consumption decisions, sticky firm pricing, and expectation formation. Hall showed consumption depends not only on current income but on expected future income; Woodford clarified how interest rates, inflation, and expectations transmit. Central banks now widely use the framework to assess rates, inflation, unemployment, and economic shocks.

Why Are Memory Chip Stocks Falling Despite Strong AI Demand?
This article examines why memory chip stocks have tumbled even as AI demand remains robust. Micron dropped 4.8%, and Samsung Electronics closed lower despite forecasting record quarterly profits. Key factors include: high valuations that already priced in record earnings and AI demand, with investors now demanding proof the profit cycle can extend beyond 2027; rising U.S. Treasury yields and oil prices compressing tech valuations by raising discount rates; and higher AI infrastructure financing costs making investors more selective. The article also notes the memory market is splitting into two distinct cycles—AI-related memory and consumer-grade memory—with enterprise SSD demand staying strong.
