Ethereum has always been considered one of the most decentralized networks, but the issue of builder centralization is becoming increasingly serious. Crypto KOL 100y explores the progress Flashbots has made in addressing the negative externalities of MEV on Ethereum and examines how SUAVE ultimately aims to solve issues related to MEV, including builder centralization.

Pendle is an interest rate derivatives protocol established on multiple chains, allowing users to lock in the future yield of their crypto assets and receive returns in advance.

Berachain V2 has migrated from the Polaris architecture to BeaconKit, improving network performance. BeaconKit allows the use of any Ethereum execution client, such as Reth, Geth, or Nethermind, making Berachain fully compatible with EVM. This upgrade resolves the bottlenecks encountered in V1, ensuring smoother transaction processing.

The current default crypto user experience ensures that users are always aware of which network they are interacting with. In contrast, internet users can find out which cloud provider they are engaging with. We refer to this approach to blockchain as chain abstraction. Cross-chain value transfers will be achieved with low fees through token-authorized bridging and fast execution through speed or price races between solvers. Information transmission will be routed through message bridges compatible with the ecosystem, minimizing user costs and maximizing speed through wallet-controlled platforms.

Narrative upgrade projects refer to those that quickly gain market attention and financial support by changing their original narrative, project logic, business model, launching revolutionary new products, reforming token structures, or merging with other similar projects, potentially changing their project name as well.

In the field of blockchain investment, the profitability of PoW (Proof of Work) and PoS (Proof of Stake) blockchains has always been a topic of significant interest. Crypto influencer Donovan has written an article exploring the profitability models of these blockchains, particularly focusing on the differences between Ethereum and Solana, and analyzing whether blockchain profitability should be a key concern for investors.

In an article discussing the differences between L1 and L2 scaling, Vitalik Buterin pointed out that the key difference lies in organizational structure rather than technology. Ethereum, as an ecosystem centered around L2, allows for the creation of unique sub-ecosystems, fostering diverse development. Blockchain culture influences incentive mechanisms, user appeal, and the legitimacy of the ecosystem.

This article will take stock of the increasingly varied pitfalls in the crypto world and discuss whether there are still profitable opportunities for ordinary users in the crypto industry?

This article explains the COG strategy, including its definition, how it works, implementation methods, pros and cons, and practical examples to help readers understand and use this strategy effectively.

This article offers an in-depth look at Creditcoin, a decentralized credit lending platform. It covers how the platform operates, its core and economic mechanisms, and details about the $CTC token. Additionally, it explains how blockchain technology is used to revolutionize traditional credit models and provides a platform for individuals without bank accounts to accumulate credit.

Bool Network functions as a witness bridge, requiring only a signature on the target chain to complete the cross-chain transaction at minimal cost. Its core advantage is that nearly all operations occur within a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE), ensuring that external parties cannot see what is happening. Each node is unaware of the identity of the witnesses or whether they have been selected, which fundamentally prevents collusion and greatly increases the cost of external attacks.

South Korea’s financial system enjoys high trust, which leads to lower enthusiasm for decentralized self-custody and DeFi among users. However, almost no one in South Korea does not know about BTC, and people are more friendly to emerging projects. Due to the FOMO sentiment of investment, value preservation, and wealth creation, South Korea's crypto market remains robust and stands out in the global crypto landscape, especially with the extensive adoption of licensed cryptocurrency exchanges and users.

Dewhales Research released a research report to delve into the mechanism and potential of AltLayer and explore how it can serve as a Rollup-as-a-Service solution in the rapidly developing blockchain environment. The article also introduces AltLayer’s Tokenomics, team and integration cases.

In previous studies and reports, DePIN often paid more attention to infrastructure. However, this report focuses more on the decentralized part, striving to show a variety of future DePIN markets and investment opportunities.

In this article, the author believes that Web3 is a consensus system with financial attributes, and recommends doing research, being kind to others, and not just entering this field with a speculative mentality.
