According to Odaily, Starknet ecosystem's perpetual contract decentralized exchange, Paradex, announced on its maintenance page that the team has identified the root cause of the current issue. They plan to roll back the chain state to block height 1604710, which corresponds to 04:27:54 UTC. This block represents the state before database maintenance began and is confirmed as the last normal state. Paradex stated that once the rollback is complete, all user accounts will be restored to their status prior to the database maintenance.

According to ChainCatcher, Vitalik Buterin has expressed concerns that the current practices in the crypto industry regarding Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) have deviated from their original vision. He suggests a need to rethink and construct 'different and better DAO designs.' Buterin notes that Ethereum's initial concept was heavily inspired by DAOs, but they have now often been reduced to 'token-voting controlled vaults,' which, while operational in form, are inefficient, easily manipulated, and fail to address issues arising from human political games. Buterin emphasizes that DAOs remain an indispensable infrastructure with applications such as improving oracle design, enabling on-chain dispute arbitration, maintaining various critical lists, quickly launching short-term collaborative projects, and supporting long-term project maintenance after the original team exits. He believes the current issues lie not in participant motivation but in the inadequacies of governance and oracle system designs. In terms of governance frameworks, Buterin introduces the analysis perspective of 'concavity and convexity problems,' suggesting that different types of issues require different governance structures. Scenarios favoring consensus and robustness should emphasize broad participation and resistance to manipulation, while those requiring decisive action should allow for leadership, balanced by decentralized mechanisms. Buterin further points out that for DAOs to truly function, they must address the challenges of privacy and decision fatigue. This can be alleviated through privacy technologies like zero-knowledge proofs (ZK) and multi-party computation, as well as AI and consensus-based communication tools to ease governance burdens. He stresses that AI should not replace human judgment but serve as a tool to amplify and assist human intentions. Finally, Buterin states that future DAO designs need to consider governance mechanisms, privacy technologies, and communication layers as core components rather than auxiliary modules, ensuring that the decentralization and robustness of Ethereum's underlying infrastructure are maintained in its upper-layer applications.

Paradex stated that after the rollback is complete, all user accounts will be uniformly restored to the state before the database maintenance.

Binance founder Changpeng Zhao denied rumours of a relationship with actress Sydney Sweeney, saying they have never met and calling the claims “fake news.” Experts say fake news and AI-generated disinformation are spreading faster and harder to spot, often mixing true and false details to mislead the public.

In an article, Vitalik Buterin stated that the current practice of DAOs in the crypto industry has deviated from the original vision, necessitating a rethinking and construction of "different and better DAO designs." Vitalik pointed out that Ethereum's initial concept was heavily inspired by decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs), but today DAOs are often simplified into "treasuries controlled by token voting," which, while functional in form, are inefficient, easily manipulated, and fail to truly alleviate the problems arising from human political games. Vitalik emphasized that DAOs remain indispensable infrastructure, with applications including: improving oracle design, implementing on-chain dispute arbitration, maintaining various key lists, quickly launching short-term collaborative projects, and supporting long-term project maintenance after the original team leaves. He believes the current problem lies not in participant motivation, but in the inadequacies of the system design itself, including governance and oracles. Regarding governance frameworks, Vitalik introduced the analytical perspective of the "concave vs. convex problem," arguing that different types of problems require different governance structures: scenarios leaning towards consensus and robustness should emphasize broad participation and resistance to manipulation; while scenarios requiring decisive decision-making should allow for leadership, while being checked and balanced through decentralized mechanisms. Vitalik further pointed out that for DAOs to truly function, they must address the two major challenges of privacy and decision fatigue, and can alleviate the governance burden by leveraging privacy technologies such as zero-knowledge proofs (ZK) and multi-party computation, as well as AI and consensus-based communication tools. He emphasized that AI should not replace human judgment, but rather serve as a tool to amplify and assist human intentions. Finally, Vitalik stated that future DAO designs need to consider governance mechanisms, privacy technologies, and communication layers as core components, not subordinate modules, to ensure that the decentralized and robust performance of the Ethereum underlying layer is continued in its upper-layer applications.

من المتوقع أن تفتتح الأسواق الأوروبية تداولات يوم الاثنين على هبوط حاد. وفي المقابل، جاء ذلك بعد تهديدات الرئيس الأميركي دونالد ترامب بفرض رسوم جمركية جديدة. ومن ناحية أخرى، هدد ترامب بزيادة الرسوم على دول أوروبية عدة. كما ربط ذلك بمعارضة هذه الدول لمساعيه لشراء غرينلاند source: https://www.twsiat.com/%d8%aa%d9%81%d8%aa%d8%aa%d8%ad-%d8%a7%d9%84%d8%a3%d8%b3%d9%88%d8%a7%d9%82-%d8%a7%d9%84%d8%a3%d9%88%d8%b1%d9%88%d8%a8%d9%8a%d8%a9-%d8%aa%d8%af%d8%a7%d9%88%d9%84%d8%a7%d8%aa-%d8%b9%d9%84%d9%89-%d9%87/
