Polymarket, an on-chain prediction market platform, has announced a significant infrastructure upgrade set to occur within the next 2-3 weeks. According to ChainCatcher, this upgrade will include a comprehensive overhaul of the trading engine and the introduction of a native stablecoin, Polymarket USD. The upgrade will feature the new CTF Exchange V2 smart contract system, which aims to optimize matching logic and order structure, improve matching efficiency, and reduce gas costs. Additionally, the platform will enhance its central limit order book (CLOB) by adopting a hybrid model of off-chain order matching and on-chain settlement. On the asset side, Polymarket will introduce Polymarket USD, a native stablecoin pegged 1:1 to USDC, to replace the previous cross-chain version USDC.e on Polygon. This change is intended to improve asset security and consistency. The platform will also support the EIP-1271 standard, allowing multi-signature wallets, such as Safe, to participate directly in trading, thereby expanding use cases for institutional and advanced users. Polymarket has stated that existing order books will be cleared during the upgrade, with specific maintenance times to be announced a week in advance. This upgrade comes amid increasing competition in the prediction market sector, as the platform seeks to enhance performance and user experience.

Figure Technology Solutions, a blockchain-based lending platform that went public last year, is considered potentially undervalued as its loan originations increase and its tokenized credit marketplace expands. According to Cointelegraph, Bernstein analysts have given Figure an “Outperform” rating with a $67 price target, nearly double its recent trading level of around $32. The optimistic outlook follows a significant rise in lending activity. In March, Figure originated $1.2 billion in loans, a 33% increase from the previous month, marking the first time monthly volumes surpassed $1 billion. The company primarily focuses on home equity lines of credit (HELOCs), which allow homeowners to borrow against their property equity, usually at lower interest rates than unsecured loans. Utilizing the Provence blockchain, Figure claims to enhance efficiency in the loan process, reducing costs by 117 basis points per loan. First-quarter originations reached $2.9 billion, more than doubling from the previous year and defying the typical seasonal slowdown in HELOC demand. The company is now on track for approximately $12 billion in annualized loan volume. Figure’s growth is attributed to rising consumer loan demand, an expanding partner network, and the ongoing rollout of its blockchain-based credit infrastructure, including its YLDS stablecoin. Despite a strong start to the year and a positive fourth quarter with increased earnings and revenue, Figure's profits fell short of expectations. The company's stock has struggled, declining over 20% this year amid broader volatility in digital asset-linked stocks and sector-specific challenges. Following its high-profile Nasdaq debut last September, which valued the company at nearly $800 million, the stock has faced difficulties regaining momentum. Bernstein's analysis values Figure at roughly 25 times its projected 2027 EBITDA, indicating the stock trades at a multiple of its expected earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. This valuation surpasses existing digital asset companies, reflecting Figure’s potential as both a tokenization platform and a profitable lending business. However, risks persist. HELOC demand can be sensitive to mortgage refinancing trends, and the broader private credit market, a crucial component of Figure’s growth strategy, has shown signs of increasing pressure.

Chaos Labs has announced the termination of its risk management partnership with Aave, citing concerns over budget allocation and staffing challenges. According to NS3.AI, Chaos Labs highlighted that Aave allocates only approximately 2% of its budget to risk management, which has raised concerns about the sustainability of their collaboration. Furthermore, the upcoming Aave V4 will necessitate a complete overhaul of its risk infrastructure, a task deemed unsustainable due to staffing limitations and key personnel departures. Chaos Labs emphasized the need for a robust risk management framework to ensure the protocol's long-term viability.

Polymarket has announced plans to introduce Polymarket USD, a new collateral stablecoin, as it transitions from its existing bridged USDC setup.

美国总统特朗普在白宫出席活动时对媒体谈及伊朗称，美国东部时间周二（4 月 7 日）即为最终期限，“不可更改”。特朗普再次强调“伊朗不能拥有核武器”，称其在第一任期内撕毁伊朗核问题全面协议，刺杀时任伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队下属“圣城旅”指挥官苏莱马尼，“从而避免了以色列被从地图上抹掉”。特朗普坚称已实现伊朗“政权更迭”，称现在与美国谈判的伊朗领导层“更加通情达理”。但他又称“他们（伊朗）就是不肯认输，不过他们终究会服软的——如果他们不服软，他们将一无所有。”特朗普还称，如果让他选择，他会“拿走（伊朗）石油”，因为“石油唾手可得，他们（伊朗）对此无能为力”。特朗普称，“不幸的是，美国人民希望我们回家——如果由我做主，我会拿走石油，我会把石油据为己有，我会赚很多钱。”在被记者问及“既然美方已多次宣称伊朗军力被摧毁，为什么战事还在持续”时，特朗普称，“他们（伊朗）还有一些导弹，还有一些无人机。他们运气不错，击落了一架（美军）飞机。”（CCTV 国际时讯）
