Loves checking TVL and complaining about it—when it goes up, calls it fake; when it drops, says it's real. Tough talk but soft-hearted, still willing to try new protocols.
Governance tokens sound pretty democratic, but when voting day comes, you realize that once the whales start delegating their votes, the votes held by small holders don’t even amount to the leftovers. It’s clearly called “governance,” but after all the governing, it’s still the same group of backers nodding along with each other, while retail investors can only watch from the sidelines. Anyway, my attitude toward governance now is simple: when prices rise, I call it hype; when they fall, I call it real. I curse loudly, but when a new protocol comes out, I still can’t help taking a look.

Testnet points were supposed to be “practice” from the start, but as things went on, everyone started comparing scores, as if not farming a few tokens meant taking a loss. Sometimes I wonder how to set the stop-loss here: I’ve invested the time and spent the gas, so if the airdrop never comes, does that mean I’ve just sold myself a pipe dream? Put simply, once practice turns into expectations, people start to feel miserable. Look at social mining and fan tokens lately—isn’t it the same kind of thing? Treating attention as computing power, and once the hype passes, there’s nothing left, yet whe

Hey, I just tested it—Vault has shrunk again today. Honestly, with this interest-rate environment, risk appetite is getting crushed on the ground. The moment rate-cut expectations weaken, BTC immediately drops along with the US stocks, and the TVL across various DeFi protocols starts to tremble too. It’s pretty annoying.
That whole cross-chain bridge issue lately, along with oracle abnormal pricing, also reminded me of the shadow of being liquidated during one of those times when I was just “waiting for confirmation.” To put it plainly: you think your arbitrage tricks are a way to buy the dip,

Sigh, I just saw a new protocol out there hyping that AI agents can automatically trade. They say they don’t care, but the wallet is actually panicking… Quickly revoke a few of those unlimited contract authorizations I mindlessly tapped earlier.
Honestly, a lot of on-chain interaction projects hype things to the heavens, but there aren’t many that truly focus on security in a solid way. Some so-called “automatic trading” ones… you know what I mean—authorization games are played extremely shamelessly. Anyway, my habit now is that before going to sleep, not revoking permissions feels as uncomfor

CoinWorld news: tac issued a statement stating that the protocol has not been attacked, the team and early investors have not participated in any selling, and the relevant tokens are within the lock-up and vesting period. After an internal review, tac found no additional token issuance or malicious behavior. The recent decline was triggered by large perpetual contract sell orders, causing chain liquidations in the perpetual contract market and transmitting selling pressure to the spot market. The tac team is formulating measures to strengthen market structure and improve liquidity, with the plan to be announced later this month. In the early hours of yesterday, tac protocol (tac) experienced extreme volatility, plummeting 90% within 15 minutes.

The first joint regulatory action after MiCA’s implementation has arrived. Digital operational resilience in custody services will be the focus—by before 2027, CASPs must have a clear handle on private key management and smart contract risks.

Wu learned that the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) announced the launch of a Common Supervisory Action targeting crypto asset service providers (CASPs), focusing on assessing the digital operational resilience of custody services. This is also the first targeted joint supervisory action since MiCA entered its full implementation phase. The review will involve risk-oriented sample inspections of licensed CASPs by regulatory authorities of member states, focusing on areas such as governance structure, private key and storage management, transaction control, incident response, smart contract risks, and third-party dependencies. The relevant work will continue until the first half of 2027.

That order yesterday—slippage wasn’t set high enough. I went in and got hit by the spread twice, and then once more on the way out. When it was all added up, the profit was thinner than the fees. I’d been watching that opportunity for half the day, but once the rhythm went off, I basically gave it all away.
Lately I keep seeing people talk about how ETF fund flows and US stock risk appetite link up to crypto. To be honest, I don’t really understand it either, but it feels like everyone’s getting more and more like they’re using the same remote control. Pretty uninspiring.

Wu learned that on-chain detective ZachXBT has traced and discovered that the stolen funds from Humanity Protocol ($32 million loss) and Kelp DAO ($292 million loss) have been mixed, indicating a possible overlap between the hackers in the two incidents (the latter was previously accused of being the work of the Lazarus Group). ZachXBT stated that based on this new evidence, it can basically rule out the suspicion that the Humanity Protocol theft was an inside job.

$0.15 per transaction, 7 million monthly active users, x402's micropayment narrative is something.
View Original
CoinNetwork
CryptoWorld News: According to Artemis data, the average daily transaction volume of x402 increased approximately 5 times in June, rising to about 500k transactions. With the number of transactions increasing but the total transaction volume remaining basically unchanged, the average transaction amount per transaction dropped to about $0.15. The transaction growth mainly came from BlockRun, which contributed approximately 7 million transactions in the past 30 days, accounting for the majority of x402's total transaction volume of about 10 million transactions. Currently, the scenario with the highest demand is pay-per-use AI inference, which reduces call costs through multi-model routing and usage-based payment.

CryptoWorld News reports that Benchmark Equity Research has reiterated its Buy rating for Strategy and maintained a target price of $570. Analyst Mark Palmer said that STRC is not a stablecoin, but a perpetual preferred stock instrument backed by Strategy holding more than 847,000 Bitcoins. Although STRC once fell below $83, the company’s strategy is to keep it trading at a level close to $100. STRC’s variable dividend mechanism and $1.4 billion in cash reserves give Strategy room to adjust its capital structure.
