Cryptocurrency financing transaction volume drops back to 2017 levels

Why is the end of centralized AI the beginning of Crypto AI?

Decentralized AI faces survival opportunities in response to human dilemmas in artificial intelligence. The combination of crypto and AI can solve centralization issues and offer advantages such as neutrality, privacy protection, and trust verification. In the future, crypto AI is expected to rise, creating a safer technological ecosystem.

Circle Stock Surges 60% After Earnings as USDC Growth and GENIUS Act Boost Investor Confidence

Circle's stock surged 15% after reporting strong growth in USDC, with supply rising 72% and revenue increasing 77%. Clearer U.S. regulations boosted investor confidence, reinforcing Circle's position in the digital asset market.

Goodbye EVM? Vitalik is about to perform a "heart surgery" on Ethereum

Ethereum developers tend to bypass the EVM and adopt precompiled contracts for new cryptographic operations. Vitalik Buterin proposed enhancing Ethereum's versatility by changing the state tree and virtual machine, suggesting replacing the current state tree with a binary tree and using the RISC-V architecture instead of the EVM in the long term. However, the Arbitrum team opposed this, arguing that WASM should be used as the contract delivery format. This proposal reflects Ethereum's re-evaluation of its core capabilities, and future changes will still require broad consensus.

MARA reveals that by 2025, it lent out 9,377 BTC to earn $32.1 million in interest, with the lending sector incurring a loss of $86.3 million.

MARA's annual report shows that in 2025, it made a profit of $32.1 million by borrowing 9,377 BTC, but due to a decline in the coin's price, the borrowed portion incurred a loss of $86.3 million. By the end of the year, MARA held 53,822 BTC, with a fair value decrease of $301 million. In 2026, policy relaxes, allowing the sale of BTC on the balance sheet.

Ethereum Could Accelerate Faster Than Expected — Vitalik Backs AI “Vibe Coding”

A recent idea that was brought into the limelight by Vitalik Buterin is that of vibe coding. This model is based on AI to write code based on prompted intuition. The developers do not write complicated logic manually; instead, they provide direction to AI. The system also generates working code

Vitalik Buterin launches the Big FOCIL plan to enhance Ethereum's resistance to centralization

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin proposed the Big FOCIL plan, aimed at addressing the centralization of block builders, enhancing censorship resistance, and promoting distributed participation. The plan improves transaction fairness, prevents malicious reordering through a proposer-builder separation mechanism and an extended forward mandatory commitment list, and discusses network anonymization schemes to protect user transactions. Developers will continue to review this proposal to improve Ethereum's decentralization, security, and user experience.
