Odaily News - Arthur Hayes announced that FLOP is a practical proof-of-inference blockchain and native currency designed for the agent economy. Agents use FLOP to pay miners for inference services, miners run models, and validators confirm inference results and proof of work before settling rewards and block subsidies. The project aims to transform AI inference computing power into purchasable, verifiable, and settlable on-chain commodities, with an initial supply of approximately 2.48346 billion tokens and no VC pre-mining or auctions. In the initial reward allocation, miners receive 75%, validators 10%, agents 10%, and regular stakers 5%. The network's average block time is 1 second, with an initial block reward of 96 FLOP, halving every 730 days for a total of five halvings, after which it permanently remains at 3 FLOP per block. Becoming a miner or validator requires staking FLOP. Validators are responsible for confirming network state and managing the network through improvement proposals, while dishonest staking behavior will be penalized.

Odaily News: The decentralized lending protocol Secured Finance's lending market was attacked on September 5, resulting in a loss of approximately $104,000. The root cause was that collateral was priced based on the average execution price of the order book for the current block, allowing attackers to influence the price through self-trading, causing fraudulent lending positions to be counted as valid collateral. The attacker initially deployed the contract but did not execute immediately, then used flash loans and self-trading to inflate the price and withdraw USDC. The original attacking wallet was rolled back due to insufficient gas fees; approximately 48 seconds later, the general-purpose sandwich bot coffeebabe took about 0.9 WBTC, worth approximately $72,000, and transferred about 28.8 ETH of it to the ultra sound money builder, keeping only about $29 for itself. Subsequently, another bot took part of the USDC.

Odaily News Silicon Valley angel investor Liron Shapira (@liron) posted on X this morning: "I predict (with 50% confidence): due to AI shaking the security and stability guarantees people once believed Bitcoin possessed, BTC's price will plummet more than 50% within the next two years."Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin rebutted this, stating: "I hold the exact opposite view. My basic reasoning is that, in the long run, I am quite optimistic about network security. I believe the main challenge lies in smoothly navigating the transition period. Moreover, I think BTC can at least properly handle all problems that do not require social consensus (such as upgrading clients, mining pools, etc., to counter network-level attacks — these fall into this category). Additionally, I believe the probability of hash algorithms or proof-of-work mechanisms being genuinely broken is extremely slim. I would have wanted to bet with you, but considering my current asset allocation (I guess you hold the same view regarding Ethereum ETH), I have already staked about 90% of my net worth on this bet."

As of the latest commit, there is risk on-chain. Please ensure every node completes the patch update. Once the fix is confirmed, we will securely transfer the funds back." Relevant technical details were encrypted via PGP messages to the key published by Blockstream, readable only by Blockstream.

Odaily News: Mike Cagney posted on the X platform stating that DeFi is better suited for asset-backed finance (ABF), which can avoid redundant staking, directly improve collateralization, and support self-custody or autonomous venues as well as liquidity staking. Figure has brought ABF on-chain, but the overall market remains in its early stages, with approximately $6 trillion in market value yet to migrate at scale. The five reasons why traditional financial applications have yet to fully move on-chain include poor interface experience, the difficulty of balancing qualified custody with recoverable self-custody, insufficient institutional features such as multi-wallet support and tiered permissions, ongoing regulatory clarification, and the fact that KYC can be addressed through on-chain programmatic screening and wallet-level permissions.

He believes that Long.xyz's RWA pairing model has been preliminarily validated, is still in its early stages, and the next phase goal is to further expand scale and move toward "100x" growth.
