Antseed Foundation Closes $2.4 Million Token Round Led by Spark Capital

P2P AI inference network Antseed completes $2.4 million financing, led by Spark Capital

According to official news, the P2P AI inference network Antseed has officially been released, while also disclosing that the nonprofit foundation Antseed Foundation has completed a $2.4 million token round of financing. Spark Capital led the investment, with participation from Collider, DCG, North Island Ventures, Reciprocal Ventures, Relay Capital, and Venice.ai.Antseed aims to apply BitTorrent's peer-to-peer model to the AI inference field, allowing different providers to sell models and Agent services directly. After running Antseed's local router on their computers, users can connect tools like Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, etc., to the same address. Each call is selected by the router based on price, speed, reputation, and privacy conditions, with fees settled directly in USDC on Base. Providers can run their own local models, fine-tune models, or offer other AI services and set their own prices.The biggest difference between Antseed and OpenRouter is that there is no unified platform responsible for forwarding in between. Buyers connect directly to providers, while Antseed is responsible for discovery, routing, reputation, and payment protocols. Ordinary providers can still see the requests they handle; users can also choose providers verified through TEE, allowing requests to run in a trusted execution environment.Antseed is also continuing to improve verification mechanisms such as model fingerprints, signature responses, and audits to prevent providers from misrepresenting cheaper models as more expensive ones. The code has been open-sourced, and the network is operational, although GitHub is currently addressing compatibility issues with Codex, Claude Desktop, and others.

U.S. CFTC: The latest proposed rule notice aims to establish a framework for the cryptocurrency spot market using existing authority

According to crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett, the latest Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM) released by the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) attempts to utilize its existing authority to establish a market structure framework for spot trading in the crypto space. This framework will be built upon the existing DCM, DCO, and FCM registrations and create a new category called "crypto asset market."A significant difference from the Clarity Act is that the CFTC proposal is exploring a voluntary federal exchange registration pathway: spot exchanges that do not offer leverage can choose not to join this framework and continue to hold state money transmission licenses. Former CFTC Chairman Giancarlo stated that this provides exchanges with a "clear, voluntary single federal rulebook pathway" when customers trade using borrowed funds, and noted that the CFTC is acting within the authority granted by Congress in 2010, supported by court rulings recognizing assets like Bitcoin as commodities.Several lawyers have stated that this ANPRM is a "clever" or "creative" interpretation of Section 2(c)(2)(D) of the Commodity Exchange Act, potentially covering retail crypto spot trading that offers leverage, margin, or financing, even if customers do not actually use leverage. The proposal also addresses "actual delivery" under Section 2(c)(2)(D), seemingly focusing on whether customers own/control the assets rather than merely relying on the book records of a pooled account. However, the proposal still leaves significant questions regarding customer asset bankruptcy protection. Comments must be submitted within 60 days after the proposal is published in the Federal Register.

U.S. SEC: Plans to relax cryptocurrency asset custody rules, allowing investment advisors to self-custody Bitcoin under certain conditions

According to BitcoinNews, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has proposed a new draft of digital asset custody rules, which aims to allow investment advisors and regulated funds to custody Bitcoin and other crypto assets under specific conditions, and to provide a formal regulatory pathway for state-chartered trust companies to become qualified crypto asset custodians.According to the proposal, when a certain digital asset lacks qualified custodians willing to provide services, investment advisors may self-custody client assets under strict conditions, including written proof that custodians are unavailable, reassessment every three months, implementation of multi-signature transfers, isolation of client wallet addresses, and acceptance of independent audits. SEC Chairman Paul Atkins stated that current custody rules are primarily designed for traditional financial assets and are no longer suitable for the development of the digital asset market.The report points out that Bitcoin may become one of the main beneficiary assets of this proposal, as its institutional custody infrastructure is relatively mature. However, the relevant rules are still in the proposal stage and have not yet officially taken effect.
