Rekt Capital posted on platform X that the stage lows of Bitcoin in February and June 2026 are in roughly the same price range, and the RSI is also at nearly the same oversold level. After both bottoms, Bitcoin rebounded to around $80,000.Compared to the peak in May 2026, when Bitcoin rises again to around $80,000, the overbought level of the RSI is significantly higher, but the price has formed lower highs. The RSI forming higher highs while the price forms lower highs indicates a hidden bearish divergence at the important resistance level of around $80,000 on the daily chart of Bitcoin. As long as the price of Bitcoin fails to break through and form a new higher high, this hidden bearish divergence will continue to exist.

Messari researcher Anastasiia stated that the new version of Ethena's fee switch is proposed to trigger based on the 14-day average supply of USDe, gradually increasing the revenue extraction ratio at thresholds of $7.5 billion, $10 billion, $15 billion, and $20 billion, and redirecting part of the revenue originally used for sUSDe staking, partners, and Aave leveraged operations towards ENA buybacks.Backtesting shows that during the activation of the switch, the annualized buyback scale is approximately $52.7 million, equivalent to 3.36% of ENA's market cap at the reported price; at the same time, about 9.3% of activation days will cause the yield of sUSDe to fall below that of sUSDS.The Ethena Foundation released four ecological adjustments, including the launch of a buyback ENA governance proposal and the cancellation of monthly VC unlocks.

The security team of the open-source wallet provider OneKey successfully replicated the exploitation of a vulnerability in the old version of the Ledger Ethereum application in a laboratory environment. OneKey's founder and CEO Wang Yishi stated that they executed a "transaction replacement attack" on Ledger Ethereum application version 1.22.1 by exploiting a previously patched vulnerability, allowing attackers to overwrite pending transactions while users review legitimate transactions.Ledger responded that exploiting this vulnerability requires controlling the communication between the device and the host, such as through malware, compromised wallet software, or malicious web pages. Ledger has added application layer protections in the Ethereum application version 1.22.2 released on August 13 and fixed the underlying issue in Secure SDK 26.6.1 on August 21. Ledger emphasized that no users were hacked as a result; this was merely a replication of the vulnerability in a laboratory environment.This security test occurred after the Coldcard vulnerability incident. Previously, the Coldcard wallet had a firmware vulnerability that posed security risks to some mnemonic phrase generation, but Ledger stated that its devices were not affected by this vulnerability because recovery phrases are generated by a certified random source built into the device's secure chip. The vulnerability replicated by OneKey is unrelated to mnemonic phrase generation but affects the way transactions are processed during the signing process.

BlackRock has significantly lowered the threshold for investors to directly convert self-custodied BTC into shares of the spot Bitcoin ETF IBIT, with the minimum conversion size reduced from the previous $25 million to $1 million; Bitwise has also lowered the related threshold from $100 million to $3 million.This conversion is completed through "in-kind creation," allowing investors to directly deliver BTC in exchange for ETF shares, without the need to first sell BTC and then buy the ETF, thus avoiding the immediate capital gains tax triggered by the sale. Robbie Mitchnick, Head of Digital Assets at BlackRock, stated that IBIT has processed over $5 billion in such conversions, further increasing from $3 billion in October of last year.

According to Decrypt, THORChain announced the launch of version 3.2, which adds native cross-chain exchange support for Monero (XMR) and Zcash (ZEC). Users can directly exchange XMR and ZEC for BTC, ETH, and stablecoins without the need to wrap assets, register centralized exchange accounts, or relinquish asset custody.This upgrade also introduces Protocol Owned Liquidity (POL) and Stable Reserve, and restores support for Solana, Base, and BNB. Among them, Stable Reserve supports zero liquidity fee exchanges between stablecoins. This upgrade is expected to provide a new non-custodial trading path for users facing liquidity channel shrinkage due to centralized exchanges delisting or restricting XMR.

On August 25, BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes stated that his over-the-counter brokerage has begun inquiring about the demand for dollar lending.

The Ethereum client Besu has fixed five security vulnerabilities discovered by the blockchain security company CertiK in version 26.7.1 released on July 27, and published four detailed security announcements on August 14. The details of the vulnerabilities were disclosed later to allow node operators to complete the upgrade deployment.Jialiang Chang, CertiK's Director of Security Engineering and Senior Audit Partner, stated that the arrangement of releasing patches first and details later provides an 18-day buffer period, allowing node operators to identify affected deployments, test the new version, and coordinate with validators or consortium participants to complete the upgrade. The relevant vulnerabilities involve block broadcasting processing, future height consensus proposal caching, WebSocket subscription limits, and JSON-RPC filter creation. If not fixed, attackers could exhaust node memory or thread resources, affecting node availability and consensus processing.CertiK conducted adversarial testing on peer-to-peer, HTTP RPC, WebSocket RPC, and consensus interfaces in a private multi-node test network using the Chain Scan method, and provided reproducible testing tools to the Besu team. CertiK is updating Chain Scan to expand around-the-clock multi-node testing for public chain networks.

Recently, multiple users discovered an image model named luna-lisa-alpha appearing on the LMArena testing platform, suspected to be a new generation image generation model that OpenAI is testing. Although not officially confirmed, there is speculation that it could be an early version of GPT Image 2.5 or the next generation of GPT Image.From the testing feedback, the new model shows significant improvements in character consistency, image realism, text generation capability, and noise control. Some testers compared it with models like GPT Image 2.0, Nano Banana Pro, and Grok Imagine, believing that luna-lisa-alpha can better maintain the appearance, clothing, and style of the same character across multiple generations. However, some testers pointed out that there are still issues with repeated textures in complex texture areas. On the same day, OpenAI announced that the GPT Image 2 API preview supports transparent background generation, which can be used for product images, web design, and other scenarios. The exposure of multiple checkpoint names has also led the community to speculate that OpenAI may be conducting A/B testing. Whether this model will be officially released remains uncertain, and we need to wait for official information from OpenAI.

The Hungarian Parliament passed Bill XXXVIII of 2026, which abolishes legal provisions related to cryptocurrency asset conversion services, including the verification requirements that European exchanges must pass to operate legally in Hungary. The bill was voted on and passed on July 31 and came into effect on August 7.This abolition simultaneously cancels two charges related to cryptocurrency assets: unauthorized trading of high-value cryptocurrency assets can result in a maximum of 5 years in prison, and violating verification obligations when providing cryptocurrency exchange services can result in a maximum of 8 years in prison. The relevant provisions were criticized for overlapping with the EU MiCA framework.

According to GoPlus monitoring, the VSCode extension Solidity Pro has been poisoned, and historical versions have malicious capabilities such as data theft and remote execution.It is recommended that developers immediately check the relevant extensions they have installed and increase their vigilance towards third-party plugins.

The attention economy platform Kaito AI launched the browser extension Kaito Pulse on August 18, which can directly integrate users' public holdings and other off-chain activities on platforms like Polymarket and Hyperliquid into the X timeline, and synchronously introduce the attention metric Aura to measure the attention signals generated by users' statements and actual behaviors. Users can accumulate Aura by installing the extension, using Yaps to receive initial Aura, verifying transactions, or engaging in creator activities.Subsequently, well-known analyst @0x_ultra released a source code analysis stating that the extension has multiple data collection behaviors, including generating a unique device fingerprint through GPU rendering, device model, and audio tests, and associating it with the X account; recording user behaviors such as scrolling duration, clicks, searches, bookmarks, etc., during X sessions, and sending heartbeat packets every 30 seconds; reading subscription plans and usage for ChatGPT and Claude during verification, as well as wallet balances, holdings, profits and losses, and deposit/withdrawal records on platforms like Binance. The extension only allows communication with the Kaito domain, and the ZKTLS part is based on the open-source project Primus branch. Kaito officials have not yet responded to this.

According to Bloomberg, citing informed sources, China's Ministry of State Security recently requested some government-related agencies to uninstall the Windows 10 Shenzhou Internet Security Government Edition operating system, advancing the planned end of support originally set for February 2027 by several months. This operating system was developed by a joint venture between Microsoft and China Electronics Technology Group, established in 2016, aimed at ensuring Windows 10 meets the security requirements of the Chinese government.The report states that the new directive comes just weeks before a planned summit between Chinese and U.S. leaders, catching some government agency staff by surprise. As China gradually removes overseas technology products from its government procurement whitelist, this early discontinuation will further reduce reliance on U.S. technology. Shenzhou Internet Security has not publicly responded to this matter.

The Shanghai Intermediate People's Court has published typical cases, analyzing whether "traffic personnel" involved in telecommunications network fraud related to virtual currencies constitute accomplices in fraud. From February 2022 to April 2023, the defendants, for the purpose of profit, assisted upstream fraudulent activities by "draining traffic," using online virtual phone software to lure victims into related scam groups, ultimately causing 30 victims to be defrauded of more than 2.34 million yuan (the same currency hereafter) by an overseas fraudulent organization. The overseas fraudulent organization transferred funds into the suspects' trading accounts via virtual currency.The Shanghai First Intermediate People's Court pointed out that in telecommunications network fraud cases, "traffic personnel" may constitute accomplices in fraud or illegal use of information networks depending on specific circumstances. The key lies in determining whether they have formed a clear criminal intent connection with the upstream fraudulent organization and whether there is stable cooperation and division of labor. In judicial practice, when assessing the criminal responsibility of "traffic personnel," factors such as their role in the criminal chain, the degree of organizational management, connections with upstream criminals, methods of profit, and abnormal behavior should be comprehensively considered. Actions that only provide general online services and do not form a conspiracy to commit fraud should be distinguished from "draining" actions that knowingly participate in the implementation of fraud.

Centrifuge released governance proposal CP172 on August 18, exploring the feasibility of converting CFG tokens into company equity. The proposal states that Centrifuge's current business has shifted towards institutional infrastructure, and the original token structure restricts partner expansion and capital raising. It proposes to offer eligible CFG holders the option to convert their tokens into equity.The core details of the proposal include: 1 CFG can be exchanged for 1 share of Centrifuge Inc. equity, which will be recorded in a tokenized form; qualified holders with more than 100,000 CFG can directly enter the shareholder register, while holders below this threshold are proposed to participate through CoinList's trust structure, with no additional fees or minimum requirements; holders who do not participate in the conversion can continue to hold or sell their tokens, and the team, community, and partners will receive the same class of shares. The proposal is currently in the Request for Comments (RFC) stage for 14 days and will proceed only after board approval and governance voting.It is reported that Centrifuge is an open decentralized infrastructure for on-chain asset management and real-world asset (RWA) tokenization. The platform enables asset management companies to tokenize institutional-grade assets (such as credit, real estate, and government bonds) into freely transferable tokens for use in the DeFi ecosystem. Its core components include a compliant asset origination framework, Anemoy (a full-service fund architecture asset management division), and index proof (PoI) infrastructure for tokenizing structured financial products (such as S&P 500 index funds).
