On-chain financial application Jumper announced that the JUMP token sale will begin on September 29, 2026, at 13:00 UTC on Legion and will end on October 2, 2026, at 13:00 UTC. Jumper stated that this is its first independent fundraising effort, and JUMP is the only way for users, contributors, and investors to participate in the project's growth, with no equity in Jumper.

If there is significant oversubscription, allocations may be adjusted to broaden participation.Jurisdictions excluded by Legion include the United States, the United Kingdom, the United Arab Emirates, Russia, Iran, Syria, North Korea, Cuba, and sanctioned areas of Ukraine; in each EU member state, the number of eligible users who can view the sale terms is fewer than 150. Jumper introduced that users can exchange, cross-chain, use earnings, and perpetual contract functions through a single interface, and view crypto assets, tokenized stocks, and other real-world assets. Jumper claims its bridging transaction volume ranks first among aggregators, with a cumulative transaction volume exceeding $41 billion, over 100,000 monthly active users, and is expanding Earn, Advanced, RWA, and Perps, with Earn recently reaching a related locked amount of $10 million.

The Circle Foundation announced two grants to the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the World Food Programme (WFP) to explore the application of digital payments and digital financial infrastructure in humanitarian aid and development projects.The Circle Foundation stated that the relevant programs will study how to utilize digital payments and regulated payment-type stablecoins to disburse funds to aid recipients more quickly, transparently, and at a lower cost.For the UNDP, the grant will be used to establish and operate a "Digital Asset Innovation Pool," helping country offices expand previous digital payment pilot projects conducted in Syria, Haiti, Guatemala, and Gambia from single projects to regular project execution, and provide support such as regulation, operations, and beneficiary protection; this mechanism will not replace traditional banking channels but will serve as a complementary option outside the existing payment system.For the WFP, the grant will support the establishment of governance, risk management, funding, reconciliation systems, and compliance tools necessary for stablecoin payments, and integrate local fintech and mobile payment services. Over the next three years, the WFP plans to test 2 to 3 payment channels connecting its payment system with local financial service providers and markets to assess the performance of stablecoin payments in terms of efficiency, transparency, and resilience.
