Uniswap announced that teams can now directly configure and initiate Uniswap Auctions in the Uniswap Web App. This feature is supported by Continuous Clearing Auctions (CCA), which are used for on-chain token distribution, price discovery, and liquidity guidance.According to reports, CCA is now live on the Robinhood Chain, allowing teams to run token auctions on-chain, discover more market-oriented issuance prices, and launch liquidity on Uniswap v4 after the auction ends. Previously, projects like Aztec and Cap have used Uniswap Auctions for permissionless and transparent on-chain token distribution.Uniswap stated that the new launch process supports importing existing tokens or creating new tokens, and allows for configuring auction parameters and liquidity pool settings after the auction. The current interface supports Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, and Unichain, with plans to expand to more chains in the future.

According to The Block, the custody institution BitGo announced the launch of a new generation of quantum-safe tools for Bitcoin institutional wallets, helping institutions assess, manage, and reduce quantum-related risks associated with UTXO model wallets.BitGo stated that this solution introduces a new method for grouping and prioritizing UTXOs by address, based on its multi-signature architecture (a provisional patent application has been submitted), to reduce the risk of public key exposure from partially spent funds. This method does not cover address types that expose public keys from the outset (such as Taproot and Pay-to-Public-Key), and these addresses require separate security measures.

Strive's Vice President of Bitcoin Strategy Joe Burnett stated that there are currently three types of investment views on Bitcoin in the market: first, the bulls, who believe that Bitcoin's long-term annualized return rate is higher than the cost of financing, and therefore are willing to borrow long-term capital to increase their Bitcoin holdings; second, the neutral investors, who view Bitcoin as a "Digital Credit" asset, only needing to believe that Bitcoin will not disappear and can generally follow the growth of USD inflation over the long term to meet their return needs.For example, according to Michael Saylor, if Bitcoin grows at an average annual rate of 3.3%, it can sustainably rely on capital gains to pay current dividends; third, the bears, who can express their views by shorting Bitcoin or leveraging Bitcoin products. Burnett believes that as bulls, neutrals, and bears all have corresponding Bitcoin investment tools, more capital is expected to enter the Bitcoin market.

According to Decrypt, the Kenya Capital Markets Authority is tendering for blockchain monitoring tools to track fraud, money laundering, and sanctions evasion across more than 20 public blockchains. This move aims to support law enforcement needs under Kenya's new cryptocurrency legal framework.The platform will automatically issue alerts for high-risk wallets, large transfers, mixers, darknet-associated addresses, and sanctioned entities, and will screen transactions against the sanctions lists of the United Nations and the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control.

According to a report from Hongxing News, an investigation report leaked from a scam park in Myanmar shows that global telecom fraud is accelerating towards an "AI industrialization + cross-border encrypted payment" system. The scam network completes fund circulation through cryptocurrency and uses automated tools based on large models for multi-language script generation, identity disguise, and emotional manipulation.According to the investigation analysis, these systems extensively utilize OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's Gemini at the functional level to support "scaled social fraud." The funding side achieves rapid laundering and transfer through on-chain payments and cross-border channels, forming a dual structure of "AI customer acquisition + encrypted settlement," which gives the fraud industry a high degree of automation and transnational diffusion capability. In addition, Starlink, owned by Musk, has become the number one network service provider for the scam park in Myanmar, with American ISP providers carrying nearly one-fifth of the park's traffic.In response to the related accusations, OpenAI stated that the behavior of scammers using ChatGPT is highly similar to that of ordinary users, making identification difficult. However, they have banned about 100,000 suspicious accounts monthly through behavioral pattern recognition and risk control systems. Google stated that its AI models have safety barriers in place and emphasized its commitment to "responsible AI development" to limit the tools' use for fraud and other illegal purposes.

According to The Block, Sovright (the nonprofit successor organization related to Electric Coin Company for Zcash development) has officially released a wallet recovery tool named "Argos," aimed at helping early Zcash users recover funds that have been "stuck" due to the discontinuation of the old version of ZEC Wallet Lite in 2022.Sovright's Executive Board Chair Michelle Lai stated that Argos can recover affected assets as long as users still hold the old wallet mnemonic phrases, but since it only involves specific shielded addresses, the scale of the impact cannot be precisely estimated. However, it is estimated that the "amount is considerable," primarily concentrated among early long-term holders.She referred to the issue as a "technical pitfall" that the community has long failed to address, which, although not prominent, continues to erode user trust. Sovright currently consists of only three core members, all from the former Bootstrap system. The team is also testing a privacy-focused Zcash mining pool to reduce hash power centralization and enhance network decentralization.The governance structure of the organization has undergone significant adjustments, with Electric Coin Company employees collectively leaving to establish a new entity, Zcash Open Development Lab (ZODL), which has received support from institutions such as Paradigm and a16z, focusing on the development of Zcash-related products.Sovright emphasizes that there is no antagonistic relationship with ZODL and states that it will continue to focus on solving "long-standing issues" in the Zcash ecosystem, including key pain points such as wallet usability and infrastructure stability.

ARK Invest founder Cathie Wood stated on the X platform that capital outflows from globally less stable countries will bring new upward momentum for Bitcoin and other digital assets.She pointed out that artificial intelligence is leading a technological revolution and "drawing a lot of attention and liquidity" in the investment field, but AI cannot replace the role that digital assets play in the current global environment—especially as a "wealth insurance tool."Cathie Wood emphasized that against the backdrop of rising macro uncertainty, the demand from investors for asset preservation and cross-border allocation tools is increasing, and digital assets are gradually becoming an important means of meeting this demand.

Uniswap announced on Wednesday the addition of a no-code token auction tool in its web application, allowing any team to configure and launch on-chain token sales directly through the browser without writing code. This tool operates based on Uniswap's Continuous Clearing Auction (CCA) mechanism, where bids accumulate over multiple blocks and settle at a uniform clearing price each time.Bidders set a total budget and a maximum price per token, with everyone paying the same final clearing price. Since the auction spans a time distribution rather than being completed in a single block, it eliminates the speed advantage of bots and last-minute sniping. After the auction ends, liquidity is directly injected into the Uniswap pool, achieving an integrated process for price discovery and trading pair guidance.Previously, Aztec raised $59 million through CCA from 17,000 bidders across 191 countries, with the clearing price exceeding the reserve price by 60%; Cap Labs' auction attracted 1,002 independent bids, with a 5.5 times oversubscription, and a clearing FDV of $106 million.

Humanity released an independent investigation report by Quantstamp, which disclosed that in the H token security incident, the attacker used tools and methods characteristic of North Korean hackers, disguising themselves as communication from the Bithumb exchange through phishing emails, inducing project directors to click on malicious attachments, thereby deploying a remote control Trojan on their devices, ultimately gaining full desktop control and wallet private keys. Subsequently, on Ethereum and BNB Chain, they launched on-chain attacks: on the Ethereum side, by stealing keys to upgrade contracts and transferring approximately 141.18 million H tokens, and on the BSC side, by taking over the ProxyAdmin contract and minting new tokens. The stolen assets were then continuously sold on Uniswap and PancakeSwap for about 8 hours, causing significant impact on liquidity and market prices.Currently, the H token contract on the Ethereum side has been frozen, the mainnet bridge remains unaffected, but the BSC deployment has been controlled by the attacker and still has minting permissions. The team is working with exchanges and security parties to advance subsequent disposal and recovery plans, while reminding users to be wary of false "compensation/claim" links, and stated that further progress will be announced through official channels.Previously, the Humanity Protocol was attacked, resulting in the leak of a private key from a member of the Humanity Foundation, leading to over 31 million dollars in funds being stolen.

According to CoinDesk, Ripple is attempting to introduce XRP along with its stablecoin Ripple USD into the AI agent payment market, aiming to penetrate the on-chain micropayment system currently dominated by the USD stablecoin USD Coin.
