BIP-110 supporter Dathon Ohm stated that forced signaling for BIP-110 is expected to begin after approximately 290 blocks, equivalent to about 48 hours. At that time, miners must indicate readiness for BIP-110 through block signaling, otherwise relevant blocks may be deemed invalid and discarded. He also suggested miners and users upgrade to Bitcoin Knots nodes, and stated that continuing to run Bitcoin Core after forced signaling activates will pose security risks.
According to the official announcement, Upbit will list BSB trading pairs against KRW, BTC, and USDT.
Bitcoin mining company MARA released its financial report for the second quarter of 2026. Revenue was $175 million, down 27% year-over-year; net loss was $611 million, and adjusted EBITDA was negative $361 million. Period-end hash rate increased 22% year-over-year to 70.3 EH/s, Bitcoin production increased 3% year-over-year to 2,422 BTC; Bitcoin holdings decreased 29% year-over-year to 35,577 BTC; total value of cash and Bitcoin was approximately $2.5 billion.
Odaily News: Bitcoin's BIP-110 will enter the enforcement phase after block 961,632, where nodes will reject blocks that do not signal support. Monitoring page data shows that among the 1,674 blocks counted in the current cycle, only 41 blocks support BIP-110, putting the miner signal support rate at 2.45%. BIP-110, officially named "Reduced Data Temporary Softfork," plans to tighten certain data rules in Bitcoin transactions within approximately one year, restricting the size of certain data elements used by Ordinals inscriptions and multiple token protocols. The proposal is primarily distributed through Bitcoin Knots, and Bitcoin Core has not adopted it. Major mining pools such as Foundry, Antpool, F2pool, and Viabtc have not issued support signals. If BIP-110 nodes execute as planned, the network could see two transaction histories, with the majority of miners and Bitcoin Core users expected to continue using the existing rules. Australian Bitcoin exchange Hardblock stated that BIP-110 activation is expected around August 7-8 and may temporarily suspend buying, selling, deposits, and withdrawals. Lightning Network tools and analytics provider Amboss has warned of a fork risk in early August, and Australian Bitcoin exchange Bitaroo plans to freeze deposits and withdrawals as the mandatory signaling deadline approaches.
Hyperliquid Research Collective released the Hyperliquid Q2 2026 Report. The report stated that against the backdrop of Bitcoin falling 14% during the quarter, HYPE rose 79% and hit a new all-time high. The report also noted that HIP-3-based real-world markets set new records in trading related to stocks, commodities, and pre-IPO companies, with trading volume accounting for nearly one-third of the platform's total trading volume. Additionally, the first batch of HYPE exchange-traded funds have started trading in the United States, and a private rocket company also achieved on-chain pricing while the New York Stock Exchange was closed.

Odaily News: Bitcoin News stated on the X platform that ZEUS has temporarily taken its infrastructure offline following a cybersecurity incident over the past few hours. ZEUS said the attack has been mitigated and services will remain offline until it completes a full security audit and resumes operations. ZEUS stated that no customer funds have been lost, and no customer funds are currently at risk. Customers whose Lightning Service Provider channels were closed will receive replacement channels once services are restored. Based on the current investigation, ZEUS said the incident appears to be limited to its own infrastructure, with no evidence yet suggesting it was caused by a vulnerability in Lightning node software. ZEUS added that it has been strengthening its infrastructure using trusted execution environments and the Validating Lightning Signer project, noting that the project is designed to mitigate such attacks in its upcoming architecture. ZEUS said it will continue to provide updates as the investigation progresses.
Odaily News: TeraWulf's high-performance computing (HPC) rental revenue grew 52% quarter-over-quarter in Q2, reaching $31.9 million, continuing to expand its lead over its traditional Bitcoin mining business.HPC rental revenue accounted for approximately 71% of TeraWulf's total revenue of $44.8 million in Q2, up from 62% in the previous quarter. In comparison, digital asset revenue was roughly flat quarter-over-quarter at $12.8 million, but down significantly from $47.6 million in the same period last year. Company CFO Patrick Fleury stated on the earnings call that Q2 results reflect TeraWulf's financial structure becoming increasingly driven by long-term, contracted HPC revenue.However, the company's net loss attributable to shareholders widened to nearly $940 million in Q2, up from $427.6 million in Q1. The loss was primarily driven by a $755.7 million valuation adjustment related to Google warrants, which was impacted by the rise in TeraWulf's share price.Following the earnings release, TeraWulf's stock price fell less than 1%, but remains up approximately 47% year-to-date. Overall, the company is further transitioning from a Bitcoin miner into an AI/HPC infrastructure platform, though short-term financial performance continues to be affected by equity instrument valuations and transition costs.
Bitcoin News posted on X platform, stating that Boltz has updated its PGP-signed warrant canary, a transparency measure used by privacy-related companies to publicly indicate that they have not received any secret government orders requiring them to hand over user data. The company's previous canary was dated May 31. Despite its commitment to update every 60 days, the canary expired around July 30, and its notice had asked users to "assume the worst" if it was not updated. Boltz stated that the expiration was due to negligence, as its team was dealing with an AI-assisted infrastructure attack that lasted for months, which ultimately led to the indefinite suspension of its swap services. The warrant canary has now been updated. Boltz stated that since the platform operates in a non-custodial model, user funds were never at risk.
Odaily News: Bitcoin treasury company Strategy has announced its participation in the U.S. "Invest America Business Pledge" corporate commitment program, which will provide long-term investment support for eligible employees' children through "Trump Accounts."Strategy stated that the company will contribute $250 annually to the Trump Account of each eligible employee's child under 18, regardless of the child's year of birth. For children born on or after January 1, 2025, the company will also make an additional one-time contribution of $1,000, matching the initial funding provided by the U.S. government. Strategy CEO Phong Le stated that the Trump Accounts and the Invest America program help American children build a stronger financial foundation, and the company aligns with the initiative's philosophy of fostering the next generation's wealth management capabilities through long-term investment, financial education, and savings habits. Strategy will officially launch the program once the U.S. Department of the Treasury publishes final implementation rules and the corporate contribution mechanism goes live, and will open registration to eligible employees.

Odaily News: Aave founder Stani Kulechov published a lengthy post stating that Ethereum's EIP-8361 progressive issuance burn proposal has systemic issues. The proposal aims to gradually burn consensus layer issuance rewards, reducing the net staking yield to zero when the total amount of staked ETH reaches 60.25 million, approximately 50% of the total supply. Stani Kulechov believes that the second-order ripple effects of this proposal have not been fully modeled and could damage the foundations of the Ethereum ecosystem across multiple dimensions. He stated that a zero-yield mechanism may exacerbate staking centralization, with home validators being the first to exit due to fixed costs such as hardware and electricity, while non-yield-driven entities like ETF issuers, exchanges, and corporate treasury funds will remain. MEV rewards, which are unaffected by the proposal, would also expand the advantages of top professional operators. He also noted that individual stakers could face tax and operational risks. If tax authorities calculate taxes based on the full issuance amount and classify the burned portion as a capital loss, home node operators could experience after-tax losses. With penalty standards for faults remaining unchanged, the node recovery period after a fault could be extended by up to 14 times as net yields decline. Stani Kulechov stated that staking yields serve as the pricing benchmark for on-chain ETH interest rates. A decline in yields could cause DeFi lending and fixed-income markets to lose their pricing anchor, potentially driving on-chain capital toward stablecoins offering 4% to 5% annual returns. For institutional investors, predictable yields are a core competitive advantage of ETH relative to BTC. If yields fall to zero while volatility increases, ETH's differentiation in the store-of-value track would diminish. He also pointed out that after the proposal is implemented, MEV's share of total validator revenue could rise from the current 7% to nearly 30%, potentially incentivizing operators to prioritize relay nodes that support censorship, thereby weakening Ethereum's credible neutrality. If an MEV burn mechanism is subsequently added, validator revenue could be nearly eliminated. Stani Kulechov suggested that the proposal's authors release after-tax yield assessments for individual node operators, tax opinions from major jurisdictions, and cascade risk models for the DeFi ecosystem, while setting a non-zero net yield floor. He believes that staking centralization should be addressed directly with targeted measures, rather than by suppressing validator yields across the board.

Odaily News: Arthur Hayes posted on the X platform, stating that his article "Situationship" discusses how the AI bubble will burst and why monetary easing will push BTC back into a bull market. He believes that the key variable in determining whether AI is a bubble lies in the internal framework question, namely that investors should distinguish whether AI capital expenditure represents technology or real estate. The current market treats trillion-dollar-scale construction as technology and assigns high-growth valuation multiples. However, he argues that AI capital expenditure is essentially another form of real estate investment, except that the computing power within data centers will create silicon-based life forms, helping human civilization develop in the most profound way since the railroads. Arthur Hayes stated that the distinction between real estate and computing power is important because hedge funds, banks, private credit funds, and ultimately governments are financing data center and power plant construction as if they were lending to Apple, rather than lending to Lehman Brothers. He believes that the bursting of the AI bubble will occur when financial intermediaries, with the tacit support of the Chinese and US governments, overbuild data centers and related infrastructure. Therefore, the AI bubble is a credit story similar to 2008, not a profit story similar to 2000.
Odaily News: Non-custodial Bitcoin swap service Boltz has indefinitely suspended its Bitcoin swap service, stating that the service will remain offline until further notice, with no timeline for restoration provided. Boltz allows users to transfer Bitcoin between the Lightning Network and the Bitcoin base layer, without the company ever holding custody of user funds. Boltz stated that over the past few months, its infrastructure has faced a continuous increase in automated, AI-assisted probing, and the team has already handled multiple exploit incidents. The company said each incident was contained, but the speed at which attackers iterate has outpaced the team's ability to discover and patch vulnerabilities. Boltz disclosed that the pace of attacks has accelerated over the past few days, and after reviewing recent security scan results, the company concluded that it cannot responsibly re-enable the swap service. Its API remains available for processing collaborative refunds, unilateral refunds remain operational as they do not rely on Boltz infrastructure, and customer support remains accessible.
Odaily News: Hardware wallet manufacturer Ledger has stated that the recent Coldcard vulnerability indicates the hardware Bitcoin wallet industry needs to reassess its security model. Ledger CTO Charles Guillemet stated that Ledger devices were not affected, as their recovery phrases are generated by a hardware random number generator built into a certified secure element. Coldcard manufacturer Coinkite disclosed last week that its air-gapped Coldcard Bitcoin hardware wallet contains a vulnerability traceable to firmware versions from March 2021. The vulnerability uses a software fallback mechanism to generate wallet recovery seeds, allowing certain private keys to be guessed, with related losses reaching approximately $130 million. Coinkite released a fixed firmware on Sunday and urged affected users to transfer funds to newly generated wallets. Charles Guillemet stated that open source is different from being audited — the flaw had existed in public code for over five years, and AI is enabling attackers to scan code and identify vulnerabilities at machine speed. Charles Guillemet also said that over the past two years, Ledger has combined AI with security engineers and cryptography experts to review code and identify vulnerabilities. He believes that when evaluating hardware wallets, users should understand how randomness is generated and whether that process has received independent certification.
