According to GMGN market data, Base ecosystem AI token Venice (VVV) has broken through the $33 mark, hitting an all-time high, with a 21.6% gain in the last 24 hours. As of press time, the token’s total market capitalization stands at $2.6756 billion, while its 24-hour trading volume is $129.7 million. Earlier news indicated that Orbio, Robinhood’s on-chain AI points discount market, also hit an all-time high. Notably, both Venice and Orbio recently announced support for the new AI model Jev. TypeSafe, founded by former OpenAI researcher Diogo Almeida, recently launched the Jev model. Jev is not designed for chat or code writing; it focuses solely on classification, scoring, and judgment. Developers provide candidate options in advance, and the model directly returns the selection, probability, and confidence level, allowing programs to proceed with execution using the results. Currently, the official pricing remains at $0.042 per million input tokens, with outputs offered free of charge.

On-chain perpetual contract protocol Travix, centered on computing power asset trading, recently closed a seed funding round. Amber Group is among the disclosed investors, with the funding amount remaining undisclosed. The capital will be used to accelerate the development of perpetual contracts for exotic assets such as computing power assets and East Asian stocks, expand Compute-Led Real World Assets (RWA) trading pairs including chips and storage, advance research and development of the "Financial World Model", deepen the development and deployment of trusted AI agent trading engines, expand global markets and multilateral ecosystem construction, and launch trading promotion incentive programs. It is understood that Travix is a next-generation PerpDEX protocol built on a modular blockchain architecture, adopting a hybrid framework of off-chain high-performance matching and on-chain settlement, enabling millisecond-level processing efficiency, and introducing a unified account management model. Its core focuses include: computing power asset perpetual contracts supporting trading of hardware assets like H100 chips and storage; the Financial World Model, which converts probabilistic events such as policy implementation and product launches into quantifiable event trading signals; and trusted AI agent trading, which lets users deploy automated strategies via an Agent Engine. Travix states its goal is to integrate computing power assets, probabilistic trading, and trusted agents, building a next-generation decentralized perpetual contract gateway that embodies "trading as understanding the world".

Beating AI News Flash: This week may bring a flurry of large language model (LLM) updates, with at least 7 models showing signs of release or testing. Tier 1: GPT-6 Sol, Claude Opus 5.5. OpenAI has not confirmed GPT-6 Sol, but Sam Altman previously noted the "major product" originally scheduled for launch last week was delayed to this week; recent community leaks have pointed to GPT-6 Sol testing and gradual rollouts. For Anthropic, blogger Lyra said Opus 5.5 is being tested under the code name claude-wafer-eap, with a planned Tuesday release. Reuters reported last week that Anthropic is considering a new model launch soon, but did not confirm the Opus 5.5 name. Tier 2: Grok 4.7, Qwen4, Kimi K3.1. Elon Musk initially said Grok 4.7 would launch around September 12, later adding it would take "a few more days", and it remains unreleased. Qwen’s developer has clarified that Qwen3.8-Flash-Next is an early preview of the Qwen4 architecture, and the Yunqi Conference is set for September 22-24, though no official announcement plans for Qwen4 at the event have been made. Kimi recently teased K3.1 via a π hint, but no release date, model specifications, or API details are available yet. Tier 3: Gemini 4 Pro, DeepSeek V4.1 Pro. Gemini 4 Pro has been leaked recently to be tested under code names like Argon on Arena, but Google has only confirmed Gemini 4 is in development, with no release date disclosed. DeepSeek has directly referenced the upcoming V4.1 Pro in its official documentation, but also has not provided a launch timeline.

LONG co-founder Nate posted a statement noting that regardless of personal circumstances, macroeconomic conditions, or significant market volatility, the team will continue building out the LONG ecosystem and its community for the long term. Nate added that the team will remain focused on RWA trading pairs and will not pivot to short-term narratives or other directions. He emphasized that the LONG ecosystem is still in its early stages, and the industry should not be limited to zero-sum competition between different blockchains, ecosystems, or assets, but should instead focus on introducing new use cases and users. Additionally, Nate revealed that the team has completed improvements to the new application version—including fixes for wallet and token list issues and the addition of a LONG PVE filtering feature—and the update is expected to launch soon.
