The stall is the second outage this year for Sui and lands as the network tries to position itself as reliable high-throughput infrastructure against Solana and Ethereum.
Sui's mainnet is experiencing a full network stall, with all on-chain activity currently paused. The outage represents…
Aptos shipped its mainnet, but daily activity is still a fraction of Solana's. Here is what actually lives on the chain, who uses it, and where the risks sit.
Zero Network, an Ethereum Layer 2 scaling protocol, has announced it is winding down operations — the latest in a…
A validator is the modern replacement for a miner — a computer that stakes coins, proposes blocks and is paid to keep a proof-of-stake network honest.
Both reuse staked ETH to secure new networks, but EigenLayer and Symbiotic slash differently, pick operators differently, and carry different operator-centralization risks.
Tron moves more USDT than Ethereum, TON rides Telegram's 900M users, and ICP sells 'reverse gas' compute. We compare them on usage, not narratives.
Solana DeFi runs on a fast, low-cost chain with notable reliability trade-offs. Here is how the major protocols fit together and where the real risks hide.
Pi launched in 2019 as a phone-based mining app, sat in closed beta for six years, then opened Mainnet to migrants in early 2024. The token now trades on a handful of exchanges, but structural concerns remain.
Both run their own appchains with on-chain order books, but Hyperliquid's custom L1 and dYdX's Cosmos chain differ sharply on fees, validator decentralization, and token utility.
NEAR pairs sharded execution with chain signatures and an intents-based DEX. Here is what actually works, what is still vapor, and why DeFi activity stays thin.
A perpetual DEX lets you trade leveraged contracts on-chain with no central custodian. The matching engine, custody, and pricing all work very differently from Binance or Bybit.
Roughly two-thirds of Ethereum L2s launched since 2023 see fewer than 1,000 daily active addresses. Here is how to separate the living from the dead.
Modular chains split the four jobs of a blockchain into separate layers; monolithic chains do all four at once. Neither design has clearly won, and the trend in 2024–2026 is blurring the line.
A perpetual DEX lets users trade leveraged futures on crypto without an expiry, directly from a wallet. Here is how the on-chain versions work and the trade-offs.
Decentralized insurance lets DeFi users buy coverage against smart-contract bugs, exchange failures, and other crypto-specific risks — without a traditional insurer.
Monad pitches an EVM-compatible high-throughput L1 for AI agents. Here is what the token mechanics, allocation, and narrative actually imply for traders.
A SIM-swap lets an attacker hijack your phone number, beat SMS 2FA, and drain your exchange account. Here is how the attack works and how to lock it down in an afternoon.
Layer 2 networks make blockchains fast and cheap without sacrificing security. Here's how they work, why they exist, and the main types in plain language.
RWA oracle manipulation lets attackers mint tokens against stale or thin-window NAVs. Real post-mortems show how flash loans and weekend illiquidity drain protocols.
