Virtuals Protocol is a Base-based launchpad where anyone can spin up an AI agent token. Most launchpad tokens go to zero — and the structure explains why.
On-chain options protocols let anyone buy or sell crypto options without a broker, but volumes are still tiny compared to Deribit because liquidity provision is brutally hard.

ETHFI gives the protocol's governance token a fee claim, but most yield comes from active AVS selection, and slashing cuts through LRT holders first.
A $15M Bitcoin security consortium forms the same week a cross-chain bridge is drained twice. The ledger tells a story of two very different on-chain maturities.
Intents let crypto users declare an outcome instead of signing a transaction. ERC-7683 standardizes that promise across chains like Ethereum, Uniswap, and Across.
The FATF Travel Rule forces VASPs to share sender and receiver data on transfers above USD/EUR 1,000. It is unevenly enforced and is reshaping how exchanges and DeFi connect.
