Paradigm researcher Dan Robinson proposed a new scheme called PACT (Prove Address Control with Timestamp), aimed at protecting long-dormant Bitcoin, including Satoshi Nakamoto's early addresses, from future quantum computing attacks.The mechanism allows users to prove control over an address via a timestamp without transferring assets or exposing on-chain activity. Should a future quantum attack occur, assets can be recovered based on this proof within a quantum-resistant version of the Bitcoin network.Compared to mandatory migration schemes such as BIP-361, PACT avoids the privacy exposure issues caused by proactively transferring assets, offering long-term holders a more flexible proactive protection path.
Hyperliquid News posted on X platform saying that Tradexyz has added a Pre-IPO market feature to its documentation. This system allows users to gain exposure to stocks before their public listing.This market oracle prices assets based on the company's latest funding round, with the market determining the price via Hyperp. Upon IPO completion, the perpetual contract automatically converts at the IPO price. If no IPO occurs, it settles at the average Pre-IPO price. The CBRS Pre-IPO market is now tradable, with an expected IPO date of May 7.

The Ethereum Applications Guild (EAG) has officially launched as a global, nonprofit collaborative organization dedicated to supporting the growth of the Ethereum application ecosystem—driving its evolution from infrastructure to the application layer. EAG will operate across four key pillars: accelerating real-world application adoption, connecting cross-domain ecosystem networks, establishing unified evaluation and development frameworks, and building sustainable funding mechanisms. EAG will implement a membership contribution model based on institutional scale (e.g., valuation, market cap, or assets under management), and introduce a staking-rewards donation mechanism—allocating a portion of ETH staking rewards into an Ecosystem Growth Fund. Additionally, EAG has unveiled its 2026 Global Applications & Developers Program, which includes developer education initiatives, hackathons, and research projects, alongside regional roadshows and ecosystem showcases to strengthen local developer communities.
the Hyperliquid Policy Center (HPC) has announced it has formally submitted a comment letter regarding the Commodity Futures Trading Commission's (CFTC) Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM) on prediction markets. The HPC advocates for establishing clear compliance pathways for decentralized prediction markets built on public, permissionless blockchains, while simultaneously refining the regulatory framework for centralized prediction markets.In its comment letter, the HPC calls on the CFTC to develop more flexible, function-oriented rules tailored to decentralized market structures; to establish clear legal channels for U.S. market participants to access decentralized prediction markets; and to support U.S. leadership in the field of decentralized finance innovation.The HPC states that prediction markets are a natural extension of the federal derivatives framework. They help participants directly manage their economic risk exposure to real-world events and aggregate dispersed information through continuously updated market prices. Their price discovery capabilities have been widely validated and, in some cases, outperform traditional polling and expert forecasts.The HPC points out that decentralized prediction markets based on public blockchains offer advantages such as transparency, non-custodial operation, and high resilience. They do not rely on centralized operators to hold user funds, nor do they present single points of failure. All transactions are recorded in real-time on a public ledger, facilitating both regulatory oversight and market surveillance, while market access standards are more transparent and uniform.The HPC emphasizes that the current rulemaking process should not codify reliance on single exchange operators, custodial intermediaries, or traditional settlement monitoring mechanisms. Doing so would prevent U.S. users from legally participating in decentralized prediction markets. The HPC states it will continue to promote compliant access to Hyperliquid and HIP-4 Outcome Markets for U.S. market participants, and will maintain ongoing communication with the CFTC.

It stated that any buyback may be initiated, suspended, or terminated at its sole discretion, subject to applicable laws and regulations. This update does not constitute a commitment to repurchase any specific number of tokens but reflects its intention to consider buybacks opportunistically based on market conditions.
the White House has recently opposed Anthropic's proposal to expand the use of its AI model, Mythos, to approximately 120 companies, primarily based on security and computing power concerns. Anthropic had originally planned to add 70 new companies to the roughly 50 enterprises currently using Mythos, but the White House has raised doubts, worrying that insufficient computing power might affect the government's own usage of Mythos.Launched in early April, Mythos is designed to detect and exploit critical software vulnerabilities. It is currently limited to testing by enterprises managing key infrastructure, with no plans for public release. The White House fears that expanding usage to more commercial users could create a computing power bottleneck for the government when using the model. This is particularly concerning given Anthropic's computing power procurement agreements with Amazon, Google, and Broadcom—though contracts have been signed, new capacity has not yet come online.On the political front, relations between the White House and Anthropic have not eased. The Trump administration has publicly criticized Anthropic for hiring multiple former officials from the Biden administration and expressed dissatisfaction with its ties to liberal organizations. One example highlights the trust issues between the two sides: Collin Burns, a former researcher at Anthropic who was originally assigned to a government AI model evaluation role, was replaced by senior White House officials upon learning of his background, to avoid having AI company personnel directly involved in matters concerning dealings with other AI companies.Additionally, last week Anthropic disclosed an unauthorized access incident involving the Mythos model, further intensifying external regulatory scrutiny on the company.
According to the HTX announcement, HTX has enabled MEGA deposits as of April 30 at 12:00 PM (GMT+8). MEGA/USDT spot trading and grid trading will go live on April 30 at 7:00 PM (GMT+8). MEGA withdrawals will be enabled on May 1 at 7:00 PM (GMT+8). $MEGA is a recently popular Layer 2 token. MegaETH is an Ethereum-based real-time execution layer that achieves high throughput and low latency through node specialization. Its network architecture employs a single active sequencer for transaction ordering and separates execution from verification via a “stateless verification” mechanism.
Odaily Seer Channel monitoring shows that the Polymarket probability of "Powell leaving the Fed Board of Governors before May 30" has plummeted, now at 9%, down 25% in 24 hours; the probability of "Powell leaving the Fed Board of Governors before December 31" has dropped to 66%, down 11% in 24 hours.The rules for this event contract are: If Federal Reserve Chair Powell is no longer a member of the Board of Governors at any point during the target date (by 11:59 PM Eastern Time), it will be judged as "Yes"; otherwise, it will be judged as "No." If Powell steps down as Fed Chair but remains a member of the Board of Governors, this does not meet the "Yes" condition. The judgment is based on information released by the U.S. government, but a consensus of credible reports may also serve as the basis.At this morning's press conference, Powell stated that after stepping down as Chair, he would remain on the Fed Board of Governors for "some time" and pledged to "keep a low profile." U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent responded, saying, "If Powell remains on the Board of Governors as a Fed Governor, that would be extraordinary. For someone who has always emphasized norms, his unilateral decision goes against tradition."The Odaily Seer Channel continues to monitor prediction markets, seeing the changes before they are priced in.
Hyperliquid is accelerating its entry into the prediction market arena, planning to compete with platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi through a newly launched "outcome tokens" mechanism.According to the recently disclosed fee structure, Hyperliquid adopts a "zero fee for opening positions, fees for closing or settlement" model for event trading, covering scenarios such as minting, trading, burning, and settlement. The platform also offers lower transaction costs for "aligned quote tokens," including market-making rebate increases and fee discount mechanisms. This feature will be introduced through the HIP-4 upgrade, enabling users to trade binary contracts based on real-world events within a single account, integrated with the existing spot and perpetual contract system to form a unified trading environment.The prediction market has grown rapidly in recent years, with total trading volume exceeding $63.5 billion in 2025. Hyperliquid's previously launched HIP-3 has driven its permissionless perpetual contract market to account for over 35% of the platform's trading volume. Currently, event tokens are still in the testnet phase, and the mainnet launch date has not yet been announced. However, the industry widely expects this to become a crucial infrastructure for Hyperliquid to challenge the existing prediction market landscape. (CoinDesk)

gaming-focused blockchain Ronin has announced its migration to an Ethereum Layer 2 network on May 12. The underlying architecture will utilize the OP Stack and integrate EigenDA as the data availability layer. Chain operations are expected to be paused for approximately 10 hours during the migration. The team advises users to unstake their RON in advance or allow the system to handle it automatically after the migration is complete.Following the upgrade, RON's annual inflation rate is projected to decrease from over 20% to less than 1%. Additionally, the treasury will gain new revenue streams from staking rewards, Sequencer net profits, and Marketplace fees. Furthermore, Ronin has introduced a "proof of allocation" incentive mechanism based on "Builder Score," distributing RON rewards to ecosystem builders on a monthly basis.
