The SEC exemption for tokenized U.S. stocks lets venues trade them on a "public, permissionless distributed ledger." What should count as permissionless is now being argued in comment letters.
The Solana Policy Institute asked the SEC on Oct 22 to judge it by control, not access alone: who can sequence, validate, finalize or censor transactions, and who can change the rules.
Hedera's Oct 9 letter pulls the other way, asking that "public permissioned" networks with vetted node operators qualify too.
Hedera says it already meets the current wording, and SIFMA has asked the SEC to define the term.

Solana liquid staking protocol @sanctumso ended Q3 with a record 18.62M SOL deposited, up 11.9% on the quarter and its 12th straight quarter of growth.
Gross profit went the other way: 9,446 SOL, down 16.3% in SOL terms ($825,942, down 6.2% in dollars).
The Sanctum Q3 2026 quarterly report is out: sanctum.so/quarterly
Highlights:
• Q3 gross profits are down -6.2% (USD)/-16.3% (SOL) over the last quarter, largely due to a one-time windfall of non-recurring revenue in Q2 from a large LST withdrawal.

One Solana wallet produced $1.40B of Raydium's $6.17B concentrated-liquidity volume over 30 days (22.7%), according to @Bitquery_io.
It traded with itself across 438 pools of fake XRP, ETH and LTC tokens, using about $12K.
No theft, and Raydium's involvement isn't established.

Solana apps can now show Seeker phone owners a "Connect with Seeker" button: one tap opens the phone's built-in wallet, with no generic wallet picker.
@solanamobile's SDK covers Expo/React Native, Kotlin and mobile web, built on Mobile Wallet Adapter.
No apps were named as adopters at launch. Package names, version requirements and the restore() session flow:

.@Arcium has opened Blackthorn, its private AI inference stack, to selected users.
Prompts, outputs and model weights stay encrypted. The keys are split across Arcium's MPC network instead of trusting a server's CPU enclave.
The serverless API is free during the private alpha.
The NVIDIA GPU stays in the trust chain, and no benchmarks are out yet. What changed since June, the H100 and B200 units, and how it ties to Solana:
