Sygnum says AI agents are bullish, with great potential. Japan’s prime minister, Shigeru Ishiba, met with Sam Altman of OpenAI ahead of an upcoming meeting with President Trump. The topic? Increasing cooperation on developing AI. Is this all setting the stage for the explosion of the next big crypto – perhaps an AI agent like MIND of Pepe? AI’s been at the forefront of everyone’s mind for months now, but when DeepSeek emerged last week, a wave of FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) swept over the market. But just a few days later, everyone is back on the AI train…

What Are Rollups?Rollups bring many transactions together, execute them off-chain, and then submit the compressed version onto the Ethereum main chain. This reduces the on-chain data, therefore making transactions faster and cheaper.There are two main types of rollups:ZK-Rollups (Zero-Knowledge Rollups)Optimistic RollupsBoth offer benefits but differ in their approach to security and transaction validation.ZK-Rollups: Fast and SecureTransactions within such ZK-Rollups employ cryptographic proofs by proving a bunch of them for being valid transactions, in front of Ethereum: it provides verification in batches (validity proofs, if required, may get termed as ZK-SNARK or zk-STARK ).How ZK-Rollups WorkUsers send transactions to the ZK-Rollup…

0G Labs has introduced ERC-7857, a new NFT standard created specifically for AI agents. They call these agents Intelligent NFTs (iNFTs), each carrying its own encrypted metadata. The group hopes this format will make AI agents easier to buy, sell, and use on decentralized platforms.They also see it as a big step toward AI governed by its owners rather than a central team. This means everyone, from businesses to individual developers, could potentially trade AI agents as if they were any other asset on the blockchain.Why Traditional NFT Standards Don’t WorkAccording to 0G Labs, existing standards like ERC-721 and ERC-1155…

Homepage > News > Editorial > Bitcoin’s Hijacking: My time at CounterParty Conference The CounterParty Conference, held in Miami, was meant to be a deep dive into the history and future of tokens on Bitcoin—a gathering of OGs, protocol builders, and the diehards who have weathered the ecosystem’s many fractures. But for me, the event took an unexpected turn when I was SIM-swapped on Day 2, forcing me to miss my own panel on the block size debate, censorship, and the coordinated efforts to silence big blockers. It was a moment that felt eerily familiar—another chapter in Bitcoin’s long-running battle…

Decentralized lending protocol Aave has successfully processed $210 million in liquidations without adding to its existing bad debt. Data from Chaos Labs shows that following Monday’s flash crash, which wiped out roughly $2.2 billion in crypto market value, the extreme market volatility led to a sudden spike in liquidations across the protocol. The liquidations summed up to $210 million, the largest such single-day liquidation total since the Aug. 5 crash. Source: Chaos Labs Typically, periods of high volatility create the circumstances for bad debts because the perfect storm of multiple liquidation requests, steep price declines and low demand create lengthy…

Cardano’s (ADA) bullish momentum is losing steam as bearish pressure mounts, forcing the price to retreat from the critical $0.8119 level. After a promising attempt to push higher, ADA bulls are now struggling to maintain control, with sellers stepping in to reclaim dominance.  The recent rejection of this key resistance suggests that downward pressure is building, raising concerns about whether the altcoin can hold its ground or slip further. With technical indicators hinting at growing weakness, the focus now is on the next support zones to determine if a deeper correction is on the horizon. Market Sentiment Shifts: Bulls Losing…
