LayerZero's detailed response reveals a sophisticated RPC poisoning attack by a likely state actor. What this means for omnichain tokens, LRTs, and bridge security.
WLFI’s latest governance proposal — hailed by the team as “one of the strongest long-term governance alignment signals in DeFi” — is being called coercion and “World Tyranny” by Justin Sun. We dive in
With ~40% of daily active users trading through third-party front-ends and HIP-3 markets driving over 35% of total volume, Hyperliquid has turned distribution into programmable, permissionless infrast
Stablecoins and AI agents are converging to create AgenticFi — a machine-native economy where autonomous agents negotiate and settle transactions in seconds. We’re watching the early rails that could
Private credit at ~11% APY, fully on-chain and ERC-4626 composable. We're watching ynRWAx closely — it's one of the cleaner RWA builds we've seen. Full deep dive available for DUTIL holders.
Most token launches fail not because of weak demand, but because sell pressure overwhelms available liquidity. CCA + active liquidity management (Arrakis) offers a better model: aligned entry, immedia
Permuto Capital’s SEC filings for Microsoft, Broadcom, and Apple trusts highlight Chia’s low-MEV, predictable execution as a compliance-friendly foundation for regulated tokenized equities — optional
Independent security researcher report on our token-gated content beta — key findings, critical issues identified, and our response.
Aster Code introduces a permissionless builder layer on Aster’s perpetuals liquidity. Instead of relying heavily on CEX listings, anyone can build interfaces, bring users, and earn fees on-chain. A pr
World Network’s World ID and AgentKit bring proof-of-humanity to AI agents in DeFi, offering Sybil resistance for airdrops, governance, and yield farming — but the massive July 2026 unlock and recent

How heat-reuse mining, Lightning routing, storage farming, and local AI could converge into modular home-based crypto infrastructure.
A $50M AAVE trade on Ethereum exposed why liquidity depth alone is never enough protection in DeFi and why execution architecture — not centralized order books — is the real safeguard.
AI agents are becoming autonomous economic actors. Frontier models prefer Bitcoin 48.3% of the time for monetary settlement. Here's why Bitcoin is the only money machines can actually use, and the inf
