OpenAI is reportedly engaging in informal discussions with several Wall Street banks as it prepares for a potential public offering in the fourth quarter of 2026. According to Odaily, the company has hired key financial experts, including Chief Accounting Officer Ajmere Dale, to facilitate this process. OpenAI is concerned about competition from Anthropic, a company founded by former OpenAI employees, which is advancing its Claude model and may go public after raising over $10 billion. Both companies face challenges related to AI infrastructure development and legal issues. OpenAI's CEO, Sam Altman, expressed mixed feelings about becoming the CEO of a public company, although he acknowledged some benefits for OpenAI itself.

The introduction of a digital euro is essential for maintaining Europe's strategic independence, according to Piero Cipollone, a member of the European Central Bank's Executive Board. According to PANews, Cipollone emphasized the need to reduce reliance on non-European payment systems such as Visa, Mastercard, and PayPal. He highlighted that Europe is currently heavily dependent on external suppliers for its payment systems, and this dependency could increase if no action is taken. The digital euro is expected to enter a pilot phase in 2027, with issuance planned for 2029. Cipollone clarified that this initiative is not a reaction to any specific country or company but rather a fulfillment of the ECB's duty to ensure the smooth operation of payment systems and mitigate systemic risks from over-reliance on external infrastructure. Cipollone also addressed the issue of stablecoins, warning that these privately issued digital assets could "threaten financial stability." He suggested that providing the public with a simple and reliable euro-denominated alternative is crucial to effectively combine public and private currencies. The legal framework for the digital euro project is still awaiting final approval from the European Parliament, with some members favoring private sector solutions.

据知情人士向《华尔街日报》透露，OpenAI 已与华尔街多家银行进行非正式会谈，并聘请了首席会计官 Ajmere Dale 等关键财务专家，为 2026 年第四季度上市做准备。该公司担心，由前 OpenAI 员工创立、并凭借其 Claude 模型不断取得进展的 Anthropic 可能会在筹集超过 100 亿美元资金后抢先上市。两家公司都面临着人工智能基础设施建设和诉讼等挑战，首席执行官 Sam Altman 坦言心情复杂：对于成为上市公司首席执行官，他毫无兴奋之情，但上市对 OpenAI 自身而言却有一些好处。

According to PANews, CFTC Chairman Michael Selig announced the withdrawal of a 2024 proposal to ban sports and political prediction contracts, as well as a 2025 staff advisory on sports contracts.

He noted that while regulatory bodies can implement rules, formal legislation remains necessary.
