Odaily News: According to sources familiar with the matter, Anthropic has signed a $35 billion cloud computing agreement with Lambda, a cloud provider backed by Nvidia, and Nvidia itself holds the lease on the data center. Sources said Nvidia signed an agreement with Hut 8 several weeks ago to secure computing capacity at the data center.This complex arrangement once again highlights Nvidia's increasingly important role in helping non-investment-grade companies such as Anthropic gain access to its expensive computing resources. The deal also helps emerging cloud provider Lambda secure a lucrative contract with Anthropic without having to procure data center space on its own. Lambda will use the data center being developed by Hut 8, connecting to chips purchased from Nvidia — which is also an investor in Lambda.It remains unclear how much Lambda will pay Nvidia for the use of the data center space. After facing a computing supply bottleneck earlier this year, Anthropic has been racing to sign cloud capacity agreements. (The Wall Street Journal)

Privacy-focused public chain Zano activated its sixth hard fork (HF6) at block height 3,833,000 on August 31. The upgrade is now live on the mainnet, marking the largest upgrade in the network's seven-year history.HF6 introduces Gateway Addresses, providing centralized exchanges, DEXs, and cross-chain bridges with directly trackable single balances and instant synchronization, while preserving existing addresses and their privacy model. Native ZANO can now be transferred non-custodially across chains to Ethereum, Solana, and TON, where it becomes public on external networks, and privacy protection is restored upon transferring back to Zano.The upgrade also tightens consensus validation rules and enhances wallet encryption, mining pool fault tolerance, payment IDs, anti-DoS restrictions, SOCKS5 proxy, and RPC interfaces.HF6 is a prerequisite for the EVM-compatible chain Zano Execution Layer, which is currently in development and has no fixed launch date yet; the next-generation consensus protocol Zenith has been included in the 2027 roadmap.

Odaily News, according to Bitcoin News monitoring, OCEAN operator Mummolin Inc. and co-founder Luke Dashjr issued a joint statement on August 29, agreeing to part ways. Luke Dashjr resigned as OCEAN Chairman, Chief Technology Officer, and Director, and Mummolin bought back all of his equity. Neither party disclosed the transaction amount nor Luke Dashjr's previous shareholding ratio. Both parties stated that the split stemmed from differing visions regarding the future direction of Bitcoin mining.The BIP-110 dispute subsequently escalated into a split of the Bitcoin chain. BIP-110, also known as the "Data Carve-out Temp Soft Fork," aims to restrict the use of Bitcoin transactions to store non-financial data, including content related to Ordinals. Before the activation period began, only 51 out of 2,016 blocks supported the proposal, accounting for 2.53%, falling below the 55% threshold required for activation.On August 8, nodes enforcing BIP-110 split from the Bitcoin main chain by rejecting blocks that did not support the proposal. On that day, the minority chain only produced 2 blocks before halting; since then, the chain mined 6 more blocks, bringing the total to 8 blocks. The initial alternative chain blocks were mined by the Roughnecks mining organization using OCEAN infrastructure.On August 10, other Bitcoin developers removed Luke Dashjr from the editor list of the Bitcoin Improvement Proposal repository, citing his involvement in BIP-110 and its editorial process. Luke Dashjr disputed this and stated that day that he would temporarily leave OCEAN to focus on Bitcoin and open-source development.Luke Dashjr is currently advancing a new project called CONVOY, using the X account @CONVOY_Mining. This project will continue his push for the decentralization of Bitcoin mining, though its specific structure and launch arrangements have not yet been announced. The X account was created in August 2026 and currently has 0 posts and fewer than 500 followers.OCEAN was founded by Mummolin and co-founded by Luke Dashjr in 2023, and previously secured a $6.2 million seed round led by Jack Dorsey. OCEAN operates under a non-custodial model, with mining rewards paid directly to miners rather than being held and distributed by the pool. OCEAN also developed the DATUM protocol, designed to give individual miners greater control over the transactions included in blocks they participate in mining. OCEAN stated that it will continue operating its transparent non-custodial mining pool and the DATUM protocol after Luke Dashjr's departure. According to Mempool.space data, OCEAN is still mining on the Bitcoin main chain.The change proposed by Luke Dashjr altered the proof-of-work algorithm of the alternative chain to Blake2b, which went live on the new chain at approximately 3:00 AM EST on August 30, making it a hard fork of the Bitcoin main chain. The new chain continued from block 961,639, which was mined before the chain stalled, and reduced mining difficulty fr
According to an official tweet from Cronos Network, the Cronos network was previously affected by a vulnerability exploit targeting the Tectonic protocol. Validator consensus triggered an emergency halt to block production to protect user assets. The on-chain state has been rolled back to pre-exploit levels, and the network resumed block production at 07:49 Beijing Time on August 31, 2026, starting from block height 90,896,189. Node operators can now upgrade to Cronos v1.7.8 and use the latest mainnet snapshot to restart their nodes. The network remains under continuous monitoring, with select protocols, RPC providers, block explorers, and cross-chain bridges gradually recovering. A full post-mortem report will be released by the team in the near future.
In a post, "White-Haired Stock God" Serenity stated that following NVIDIA's $3.5 billion investment in MediaTek, NVIDIA seems to be actively "picking" potential winners in the next-generation ASIC (application-specific integrated circuit) space through capital and strategic partnerships, with Marvell and MediaTek poised to represent this cohort. NVIDIA's strategy mirrors its earlier backing of Neocloud's Nebius and CoreWeave. By fostering the growth of potential industry leaders and subsequently forging deep financial and strategic alliances with them, NVIDIA aims to cement its dominance within the AI infrastructure value chain. This strategy could exert a "second-order impact" on Broadcom, eroding its relative edge in the ASIC domain, while simultaneously incentivizing AMD, Broadcom, and select major cloud providers to deepen their collaborative efforts. Serenity argues that NVIDIA's moves warrant particular attention, as they will further solidify its strategic foothold in the AI inference market and potentially undermine the prior bearish thesis that hyperscalers' in-house ASIC development would pose a long-term challenge to NVIDIA.
