Hyperliquid can still be traded on weekends, which is indeed interesting. Many people are paying attention to the HYPE token, and a well-known industry figure previously expressed optimism about it, even suggesting a target price of $150. Currently, HYPE is around $41, leaving plenty of room for that expectation to be realized.
The platform operates as usual on weekends, unlike traditional exchanges that shut down, which means the price discovery mechanism is more continuous. As a decentralized derivatives platform, Hyperliquid's 24/7 liquidity provides real benefits to the market. Some see it

I just reviewed the analysis Goldberg published about the Drift attack, and honestly, there are quite concerning details that most people are not noticing. The guy is the founder of Chaos Labs, so he knows what he's talking about when it comes to security in DeFi.
What caught my attention the most is how the attack exploited multiple layers of vulnerability simultaneously. It wasn't just one flaw; it was several chained together. First, the lack of time locks in the multisig setup allowed unauthorized transactions to go through unimpeded. Then, someone with deep knowledge of the system exploit

I just re-read some recent comments from Nick Szabo about Bitcoin, and it seems he touches on a point that many in the community prefer to ignore. This guy, who practically helped lay the foundations of all this, is quite concerned about where the network is heading.
The issue is interesting: while Bitcoin has evolved with updates like SegWit and Taproot, it has gained the capacity to do more things. But Nick Szabo sees a real danger there. According to him, every time the network becomes more flexible for storing data, node operators could end up being legally responsible for what circulates

I recently saw an interesting discussion about how the way we write is changing, and honestly, it's something that deserved more attention. More and more people are adopting programming-inspired formats to structure their texts, using bullet points, diagrams, and that thing called visual syntax to make everything clearer and easier to follow.
The funny thing is that this isn't as new as it seems. If I think about it, it makes total sense. Spoken language is linear, but when we write, we no longer need to follow that pattern. We can break ideas into more digestible components, and that's exactl

I just came across an interesting story. A former CEO of a certain exchange revealed in an interview that the founder of FTX had unofficially approached him for rescue before the platform collapsed, with an amount between 2 billion and 6 billion USD. It sounds unbelievable—how could this guy possibly come up with that much money all at once? And only later did I learn that the whole thing was full of lies and fraud.
What's even more interesting is that this founder of the exchange later went to prison for other reasons, and the conditions for writing his book inside were simply extraordinary.

I just saw that PEI Licensing, the company behind Original Penguin, is suing Pudgy Penguins for trademark infringement. Apparently, Pudgy Penguins' use of penguin-themed designs is confusing consumers. The interesting part is that PEI has been using their penguin trademark since 1956, so they have quite a history.
They had already sent a cease and desist letter a few years ago (October 2023), but it seems they decided to pursue legal action. It's curious how a cryptocurrency brand ends up competing with a traditional clothing company. I guess when you work with penguins as your identity, event

I just saw that the IoTeX bridge was hacked and they lost over 8 million in crypto. No joke, someone gained access with a compromised private key and took the funds. The most interesting part is that the attacker is moving everything through Ethereum first and then transferring to Bitcoin via Thorchain. Basically, they are laundering the money across chains to disappear. These bridges have always been a weak point, right? Every week, a new exploit comes out. Is anyone else considering avoiding these protocols for now?

I just saw that Akave closed a pretty solid seed round: $6.65 million. The interesting part is the caliber of investors who participated.
The project focuses on decentralized cloud storage, specifically built on Avalanche. The idea is quite clear: companies with heavy workloads in AI and data analysis need storage solutions that are more flexible and efficient than traditional centralized options.
What caught my attention is who invested in this. You have Protocol Labs, the Avalanche Foundation, Filecoin Foundation, and others like No Limit Holdings, Blockchain Builders Fund, and Big Brain Hol

I just saw that during Paris Blockchain Week, a very interesting panel was held about T+0 settlement. Honestly, these financial infrastructure topics don't always attract attention, but this time the experts came with serious proposals.
What caught my attention the most was how the panelists talked about ending the traditional T+2 cycle. Imagine transactions being settled instantly, without those waiting times we know. Some names I heard were Karima Jackson and other sector specialists, all discussing how blockchain could change the game here.
The benefits they mentioned make sense: more effic

I just saw that a whale moved nearly 500 ETH (around $1.14 million) directly into ASTEROID, that memecoin that's been circulating. They bought about 3.84 billion tokens at a price of $0.00029 USD. The crazy part is that the price has already increased by 11.47% in the last 24 hours after that move.
The market for this meme coin is pretty weak, honestly. Only $57 million in daily volume and just $7.6 million in liquidity, but the valuation is at $168 million. That means any large movement significantly impacts the price. When a whale enters with that amount of money, volatility is guaranteed.

I just heard Mark Yusko comment on something that many in the market are starting to notice: the price you see of Bitcoin right now may not be the true market price. Sounds strange, right? But here’s the thing – futures are playing an important role in how the spot price is formed, and according to Yusko, the current dynamics are suppressing what should be the real price.
The interesting part is that the 4-year cycle everyone expected in Bitcoin has played out exactly as predicted. Meanwhile, there’s something else happening in parallel that we probably underestimate: artificial intelligence a

I just reviewed an interesting analysis circulating on X about where Bitcoin might be in this cycle. CrypFlow presents something that many are not considering: the price could be forming an important bottom that would set the stage for a bull run starting around October 2026.
What caught my attention is how Bitcoin continues to respect that multi-year trend line connecting the lows of 2018 and 2022. It’s as if the market still recognizes that historic barrier as a support point. And right now, with Bitcoin hovering around $78,980, we see how the $69,000 level, which was resistance before, is a

I just saw that Jack Dorsey will be at the Bitcoin conference in Las Vegas next week. The guy is quite straightforward with his anti-traditional banking stance, so he's sure to say something provocative. The interesting part is that more and more figures like Dorsey are suggesting that we no longer need banks in the current scheme. Do you think we are really close to seeing that change in the financial system, or is it more aspirational for now?

I just found out that BRICS has just introduced a very interesting prototype. It is a new BRICS currency called Unit, specifically designed to facilitate trade transactions among member countries without relying on traditional currencies.
What I find remarkable is its structure. This new BRICS currency is backed by a basket of reserves that combines 40% physical gold with 60% of the currencies of the five members. We are talking about the Brazilian real, the Chinese yuan, the Indian rupee, the Russian ruble, and the South African rand, all weighted equally. Essentially, it’s an attempt to crea

I just reviewed the latest data on Anatoly Yakovenko’s wealth, the cofounder of Solana, and the figure is quite impressive. According to 2026 analyses, his net worth is stated to be between $500 million and $1.2 billion, which places him among the major shareholders in the Solana ecosystem.
What’s interesting is how that wealth is distributed. First, there is his equity stake in Solana Labs, which is valued between $5 billion and $8 billion. This provides him with between $250 million and $800 million from that investment alone. Then come his direct SOL holdings, which is where much of his cap

A suspect in the kidnapping of David Balland, co-founder of Ledger, has just been arrested in Spain. The situation has quite interesting cross-border dimensions: he was detained in Benalmádena following a European arrest warrant from France. Balland was kidnapped from his home last January, held hostage demanding 10 million euros, and was released by police operations the next day.
What I find relevant here is how this reflects an increasingly visible pattern. It’s not an isolated case. In June of last year, France arrested 25 suspects in a wave of kidnappings targeting crypto executives and i

So Belinda’s brother also had his 15 minutes of fame in politics. Ignacio Peregrín, the younger brother, ran as a deputy candidate a few years ago in CDMX with Partido Verde. The thing is, it didn’t go well for him—he lost to another candidate with a little more than 51,000 votes. But what’s interesting is what happened afterward.
Before getting into politics, Peregrín worked at the Secretaría de Relaciones Exteriores coordinating international cooperation programs. Then an investigation came out showing that while he held that position, he was also a partner in a cleaning company that had obt

I just found out that Ripple is making moves in South Korea with a pretty interesting project. They partnered with Kyobo Life Insurance to run a pilot of tokenizing Korean government bonds. The idea is to reduce the settlement time from T+2 to almost real-time, which is a significant change if they succeed.
What catches my attention is that this is more than just a technical experiment. It's a strategic pilot to assess whether it's truly feasible, both technically and regulatorily, to scale this kind of tokenized bond solutions. Additionally, they are exploring payment channels with stablecoin

I just saw that Soluna Holdings made a pretty interesting acquisition: they bought a wind farm in West Texas for $53 million. The company, listed on Nasdaq, is dedicated to building eco-friendly data centers for intensive computing operations, from Bitcoin mining to AI infrastructure.
What catches my attention is the focus: it’s not just any renewable energy purchase, but specifically a wind farm. With this acquisition, they will launch the Dorothy 3 project, which will essentially be an AI data center powered entirely by wind sources. That is, clean computing power from the source.
This move

I just reviewed the Asian energy market numbers, and things look quite weak this week. The spreads are compressing everywhere, especially in fuel oil contracts: that inverted April-May spread went from over $43 to just $30, a pretty significant drop.
What's interesting is that gas oil is also hitting three-week lows. The 10ppm gasoil crack spread plummeted to $54.7 per barrel, and traders remain nervous about whether physical delivery will face issues in the Strait of Hormuz. That is limiting how much prices can fall beyond that.
Naphtha also didn't escape: it dropped about $170 to $1,100 per
