Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin is advocating for EIP-8288, a proposal designed to make Ethereum more efficient by moving complex cryptographic work off-chain.
🔍 How would it work?
Aggregate signatures and proofs client-side using $STRK .
Let Ethereum’s mainnet verify a compact proof instead of processing every cryptographic operation.
Reduce the need to add new precompiles whenever new cryptographic schemes emerge.
🚀 Why it matters:
Potentially cheaper privacy-focused transactions.
A clearer path toward quantum-resistant cryptography.
Less computational burden on Ethereum’s base layer.

NEAR Intents has directed $6.68 million toward $NEAR token buybacks since February 2026, according to DefiLlama data.
📈 Buyback momentum is growing:
September: $1.84M, the largest monthly total so far.
October: $1.36M by October 19.
July: $504.9K.
August: $723.3K.
💰 Where does the money come from?
NEAR Intents earns fees by routing cross-chain swaps. A portion of the revenue is used to buy NEAR, linking ecosystem activity to token demand.
Over the past 30 days, the protocol generated $7.37M in fees and $2.31M in revenue, with $4.5B in DEX volume.

JPMorgan Chase has expanded JPM Coin to Ethereum Blockchain, giving approved institutional clients another blockchain option for moving and settling dollar-denominated deposits.
⚡ Why it matters:
💵 Bank-backed digital money
🌐 24/7 settlement
🔗 Ethereum adoption
🚀 The bigger picture: Traditional finance is increasingly exploring blockchain infrastructure for real-world financial activity, not just crypto trading and DeFi.
And JPMorgan is not just any institution; it is the largest bank in the U.S. by assets, holding roughly $3.9 trillion to $4.6 trillion in assets and roughly 20% of all dep

Russia Is Closing the P2P Crypto Shortcut. What Happens to Everyday Traders?
Buying $USDT from another person with a bank transfer has been a familiar route for Russians seeking crypto. That channel is now on a countdown.
The Bank of Russia says direct peer-to-peer crypto trades between individuals will be prohibited from July 1, 2027. After that, residents must trade through approved intermediaries, such as registered exchange operators or brokers. The law took effect on September 1, 2026.
This is more than a rule about where people click “buy.” P2P markets connect ruble payments with crypto

The Whales Didn’t Blink 🐋👀
Bitcoin briefly slipped below $80K, but large holders kept accumulating. Santiment reported that the number of wallets holding 10–10,000 BTC reached a record 20,338 the same day $BTC dipped below $80K for roughly two hours.
That matters because it points to a possible supply-absorption trend: this cohort reportedly added around 85,000 BTC in three weeks, while spot ETFs recorded about $770M in outflows. CryptoQuant’s estimate of nearly 3M BTC held by whales off exchanges adds to the picture, but exchange balances don’t prove those coins are permanently unavailable

Bitcoin has never stopped processing transactions, yet the market has suffered brutal crashes. The network never broke.
Every major collapse was triggered by human mistakes: centralized platforms losing customer funds, government bans, forced selling from borrowed money, and weekend panic over global headlines. The market consistently flushes out bad debt and recovers because the underlying code never failed.

Damn! A Hyperliquid whale is riding a $110 $BTC long at 40x leverage.
> Position: 1,356 BTC
> Entry: $81,914
> Liquidation: around $80,266
That liquidation level is dangerously close.
At 40x, even a small move against the position can wipe out the margin.
Big position, very little room for error.

$SOL Apps Pull $193M in 30 Days as RWAs Jump 600%
Apps on Solana generated $193.1 million in the past 30 days, nearly twice HyperLiquid's $86.5 million.
Ethereum $ETH came in at $53.8 million over the same period.
Roughly 80% of that revenue still comes from consumer apps like launchpads and trading terminals. Pump(.)fun alone brought in about $39 million.
The bigger shift is in real-world assets.
Solana's RWA market grew from around 700 million to 4.37 billion in a year, a 600% jump. Tokenized stocks on the network rose from 63 million to 455 million.
The question now is whether the consumer

Deutsche Bank Prepares Crypto Custody Launch (Eyes Asia)
5 assets are already on Deutsche Bank's launch list: $BTC , $ETH , USDC, EURC, and EURAU. The bank is preparing to launch crypto custody in Germany and reportedly plans to expand the service into Asian financial centers in 2027
This is built for institutional and corporate clients, not retail users. Deutsche Bank will manage wallets and private keys, while clients can hold assets and transfer them to third parties without building their own custody infrastructure.
The timing is interesting too: Deutsche Bank is targeting 8% annual growth i

Justin Sun holds a staggering $2.25 BILLION in on-chain assets across 10 networks.
According to Arkham, he's the second-largest known on-chain holder, behind only Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto. 👀

Hidden Chip Under a Ledger Screen: Is Your Crypto Wallet Really Safe?
A hardware wallet should keep crypto keys offline but what if the device was tampered with before it reached you?
Recent reports say Ledger devices sold through reseller CryptoBillis contained an unauthorised circuit board beneath the screen. The alleged implant could capture sensitive information during setup and transmit it through an embedded SIM. Reports link the incident to more than $86 million in losses. Ledger says its own systems and devices bought directly from the company have not been compromised.
This is a suppl

The IMF says AI will affect about 40% of jobs around the world over time.
IMF chief Kristalina Georgieva shared this at the IMF and World Bank Annual Meetings in Bangkok, saying some jobs will be improved by AI, while others will be downgraded or removed. The impact is expected to be bigger in advanced economies, at about 60% of jobs compared with about 23% in low-income countries, mainly because AI is spreading slowly over there.
She called it a slow-moving tsunami and warned it could cut the tax money governments collect.
Despite the risks, she noted that AI investment is helping keep global

XRP spot ETFs saw net inflows last week, while BTC, ETH, and $SOL spot ETFs saw net outflows.

Strategy added 250 $BTC last week, bringing its holdings to 848,250 $BTC.
How soon can he reach 900K BTC?
