Paranoid developer Ignotus Nemo proposed a recursive aggregation scheme for EIP-8288 on the Ethereum research forum, suggesting support for various approved proof sizes to allow smaller proofs for small-scale aggregation. He implemented heterogeneous recursion in the Paranoid system, which has been running both large and small state transition proofs on the public mainnet.The scheme uses a limited set of authenticated validator libraries, processing cross-class delayed validation through independent accumulator channels for each class to ensure the correctness of matrix claims in the recursive steps. When applying this mechanism to EIP-8288, discussions are needed on how to merge subclass libraries, handle dependencies, and address semantic compatibility issues between program identities and validator classes. EIP-8288 was proposed by Vitalik Buterin and Thomas Coratger in June 2026, primarily addressing the issues of large post-quantum signatures and STARK proof sizes, as well as high on-chain verification costs.

Zipcoin announced that it has ceased operations, stating that the project’s code repository and related keys have been fully compromised, and attackers may control the project’s wallets and infrastructure. The team indicated that they attempted to migrate the code and rotate credentials in the past 12 hours but failed to find a viable security solution.Zipcoin also disclosed that the project was affected by the UNCX incident on October 15, where hackers stole approximately 1.1% of the supply of multiple Ethereum tokens, including ZC, PAAL, and EDGEN, and sold them on the open market. The team subsequently attempted to buy back tokens from the market to compensate for the token shortfall corresponding to future team commitments.

DeepSeek announced the full open-source of its internal inference framework DeepInfer, and simultaneously open-sourced the production-level token encoding and decoding component deepseek-recipe. DeepInfer integrates high-performance operators and a deeply optimized inference engine, supporting distributed inference, speculative decoding, SWA Bounded Replay, and structured output, compatible with NVIDIA and Huawei Ascend platforms.DeepSeek stated that it has implemented high throughput and low latency large-scale inference services for DeepSeek V4.1 Flash based on DeepInfer, and future inference code and optimizations for new models will continue to be updated here. deepseek-recipe is fully aligned with the processing logic of the DeepSeek official API, aiming to ensure that the community receives an experience consistent with the official deployment. The open-source repository and technical report have been released simultaneously.

According to monitoring by Lookonchain, a certain whale is making a large bullish bet on the decentralized perpetual contract platform Hyperliquid, with long positions reaching $140.88 million, including going long on 1,236 BTC ($102.2 million) and 15,928 ETH ($38.67 million).

Ethereum research forum researcher Pierre proposed a faster, aggregatable, and quantum-resistant privacy pool solution.This solution ports a Tornado Cash-like privacy pool to the hash-based SNARK system Flock, which may possess post-quantum security, and uses SHA-256. The solution replaces large circuits with small "single compression" circuits.

Binance founder Zhao Changpeng responded on the X platform regarding the recent mass deletion of old tweets, stating that he was merely testing an AI tool to clean up past retweeted content and did not delete any original posts, so there is no need for the outside world to overinterpret.

According to data from the CoinGlass platform, Gate's stock perpetual contracts rank second across the network, with several popular stock derivatives, such as SPCX, SKHYNIX, SNDK, and SOXL, having positions that also rank second across the network, only behind Binance.Real-time data from the platform shows that Gate SPCX has a position of 144 million USD, accounting for 14.65% of the total market share; SKHYNIX has a position of 137 million USD, accounting for 15.38%; SNDK has a position of 150 million USD, accounting for 18.62%; and SOXL has a position of 143 million USD, accounting for 23.92%.

Recently, Gate founder and CEO Dr. Han accepted an exclusive interview with the cryptocurrency media Bitcoin.com, reflecting on Gate's journey from developing its underlying trading system in 2013 to becoming a platform serving over 61 million users across more than 130 countries and regions. He further elaborated on the strategic vision of the TOKEN2049 keynote speech "One Gate, Everything Money."Dr. Han stated that in the face of the long-standing barriers between traditional finance and the cryptocurrency market, users have often faced the dilemma of fragmented capital management. They not only need to frequently transfer funds between banks, brokerages, and cryptocurrency platforms but also have to keep a large amount of cash idle in bank accounts, suffering losses from inflation and lack of returns. Meanwhile, high-quality assets like stocks and gold are difficult to consume immediately due to liquidity constraints.To address this industry pain point, Gate officially launched the integrated financial application Gate Money, which consolidates fiat currency, cryptocurrency assets, gold, ETFs, and over 12,800 global stocks into a single account. Users no longer need to hold large amounts of low-yield idle cash and can allocate capital to high-quality assets with value preservation and appreciation potential. When a consumption demand arises, the system will instantly convert the corresponding assets into fiat currency for payment, keeping the funds in an investment state before consumption.

Vitalik posted on the X platform to congratulate the @zksync Airbender team for achieving this milestone. He believes that the speed competition of zkEVMs has achieved a decisive victory, and the primary focus should shift entirely to security.Vitalik stated that this means there is a need to formally verify the equivalence of arithmetic and Ethereum specifications, the hard upper limit of the ratio of prover costs to total block Gas, and the security of the proof system itself.

From October 9 to 11, Gate, as the official sponsor and long-term partner of the F1 Red Bull Racing Team, hosted a VIP exclusive hospitality event during the 2026 F1 Singapore Grand Prix, inviting dozens of global VIP clients, core partners, and special guests to experience the unique charm of top-level motorsport. During the event, Red Bull Racing driver Max Verstappen started from pole position and ultimately won the race, achieving Pole to Win, while invited guests witnessed this exciting moment and shared in the joy of victory.This VIP hospitality event combined race viewing, premium reception, and exclusive brand experiences, providing invited guests with F1 Paddock Club luxury box viewing and brand interaction experiences. The Gate brand logo appeared in several key locations, including the rear wing, front wing, driver helmets, and race suits of the Red Bull Racing cars, showcasing the depth of the collaboration between the two parties. Previously, Gate had invited Red Bull Racing drivers Max Verstappen and Isack Hadjar to participate in a driver meet-and-greet and exclusive handprint ceremony during the TOKEN2049 event in Singapore, and hosted VIP private events to further enrich the forms of collaboration.From the TOKEN2049 international industry event to the F1 Singapore Grand Prix, Gate deeply integrates global top-tier event resources with high-end customer experiences, deepening its strategic cooperation and global partnership with the Red Bull Racing Team, expanding brand international influence, and promoting the integration of Web3 with mainstream culture.

In 2025, there were approximately 20 financing rounds in the domestic tactile sensor sector, with a total disclosed amount nearing 1.8 billion yuan. According to data from the Financial Association, in the first seven months of 2026, there were 15 financing rounds completed in the humanoid robot sensor field, totaling 3.1 billion yuan, with July alone accounting for 1.56 billion yuan.
