ChainCatcher news, according to The Block, the core development team of the Sei blockchain, Sei Labs, recently proposed a key proposal SIP-3, which plans to gradually phase out the existing CosmWasm smart contracts and native Cosmos account functionalities, fully transitioning to the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) architecture. This proposal aims to simplify the network structure and enhance performance. In the future, the Sei network will only support transactions initiated through EVM addresses, while underlying functions such as validation nodes will still retain support for native Cosmos technology.This transformation is based on the actual data following the launch of Sei v2 mainnet: since the introduction of parallelized EVM in July 2024, EVM-related transaction volume has dominated network activity. The proposal is currently in the community discussion phase and will be decided through processes such as Snapshot voting. If approved, developers will need to migrate CosmWasm applications to the EVM environment, and users will also need to transfer their assets to EVM-compatible wallets. This change is expected to optimize the developer experience and help Sei deeply integrate into the EVM ecosystem.

ChainCatcher news, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin stated at the "Web3 Scholars Summit 2025" in Hong Kong that Ethereum's long-term goal is to achieve 12-second native asynchronous communication between L1 and L2, reducing bridging latency and costs.To this end, he proposed a "four-step" plan: including a "ZK+TEE+OP two out of three" design, asynchronous reading of L1 through L1SLOAD, a unified proof integration mechanism, and deploying low-latency validators. He emphasized that in the future, users can still use intent-based models to achieve faster or more cost-effective experiences, but the underlying communication system will tend towards low cost and high coupling.

ChainCatcher news, the encryption research institution Messari recently released an in-depth research report on CESS Network, highlighting the necessity of data value infrastructure for the development of industries such as AI and Web3. Messari systematically analyzes the groundbreaking technological architecture and strategic layout of CESS Network in the field of Web3 data infrastructure in the report.The report points out that the data value infrastructure network built by CESS based on DePIN achieves data valorization, sovereignty return, and privacy protection, addressing three core contradictions in the AI era: the lack of data sovereignty, storage efficiency bottlenecks, and the allocation of computing and storage resources. It drives the integration of Web3 with the real economy and RWA, using compliant data circulation protocols to connect the closed loop of "storage and distribution - rights confirmation and privacy - sharing and circulation," and builds the next-generation infrastructure that supports AI training, DeSci collaboration, and enterprise-level data markets.

ChainCatcher news, the decentralized streaming platform Theta has released its roadmap for 2025. In the first half of 2025, the focus will be on launching the hybrid cloud edge architecture of EdgeCloud in June and expanding the rapidly growing edge network. This release will fully support a distributed edge architecture across devices, regions, and configurations, capable of prioritizing and opting out of specific job types, as well as analyzing completed jobs. A developer API interface will also be released, providing developers with the tools needed for efficient development on EdgeCloud. Other key features will be launched based on the needs of current EdgeCloud customers, such as persistent storage, GPU node upgrades, and on-demand API access to AI models. These features, along with the beta version of the AI Agents platform, will automatically utilize AI models through on-chain autonomous interactions to enable a wide range of use cases and encourage adoption by customers in key target areas such as academia, private enterprises, professional sports, and esports.In the second half of the year, the Theta Hackathon will be expanded into an offline event, providing ongoing support for Theta ecosystem projects. Discussions are underway with several well-known professional sports and esports teams, hoping that EdgeCloud can assist them in formulating AI strategies and potentially launching sub-chains to support their business use cases. Third-party platforms are also considering integrating TDROP as a user participation token, starting with OpenTheta, with more platforms expected to launch by 2025. Additionally, there is an evaluation underway to possibly rebrand TDROP to extend its utility to AI agents, RAG chatbots, and other consumer-facing AI and video AI applications built on EdgeCloud. Finally, the hybrid edge cloud architecture of EdgeCloud will be fully launched in 2025, including intelligent job orchestration and optimization, as well as comprehensive support for Linux, Windows, and Mac.
