ChainCatcher news, according to Cointelegraph, digital asset self-custody service provider Safe (formerly Gnosis Safe) has announced the establishment of a wholly-owned subsidiary, Safe Labs, focused on the development of enterprise-grade self-custody solutions based on Safe Smart Accounts and smart contract wallet technology. The subsidiary is led by former Chief Product Officer Rahul Rumalla, who has over 15 years of engineering and product management experience and previously founded Web3 startups Paperchain and Otterspace.It has been disclosed that Safe currently has a managed asset scale of $60 billion, supporting 4% of Ethereum on-chain transactions and holding about 10% of the Ethereum Virtual Machine smart account market share. The new product adopts a modular smart contract wallet architecture, supporting institutional needs such as multi-signature management, but most on-chain interactions still rely on the "blind signing" operations of hardware wallets.Safe co-founder Lukas Schor emphasized that the development of Web3 must ensure users have absolute control over their digital sovereignty. At the time of this initiative's announcement, Bybit was exposed to industry risks due to a $1.4 billion hack incident caused by a blind signing vulnerability in February, and Ledger CEO Pascal Gauthier pointed out that "blind signing is equivalent to signing a blank check online."

ChainCatcher news, Vitalik commented on the incident where Soneium blacklisted some Meme coins on its social platform, stating that Soneium's situation vividly demonstrates the benefits of launching Ethereum L2 for businesses and users. Businesses can make very detailed choices about how much control to retain and give to users. But whatever rules they choose, those are the rules. Everything is on-chain, transparent, and can be audited by third parties.Developers can also create a system that lets users know they can send transactions on L2 when needed, but there is a significant barrier - the sequencer can restrict but not censor. This is essentially what Sony has done. This is all the free market at work. As an ecosystem, it is important to ensure that:A large amount of financial activity occurs in a completely open environment;There are enough tools for users to understand the properties of the on-chain environment they are in.Previous news, Soneium, a Layer2 project by Sony, sparked controversy by blacklisting some Meme coins suspected of infringing intellectual property on the day of its mainnet launch. This led to some tokens being restricted from trading and not being supported on the official block explorer.
