🚨 $19 billion in settlements paid by crypto companies to US regulators in 2024.

FTX and Alameda are responsible for most of the funds, with $12 .7 billion paid to the CFTC in an August settlement.

Since 2019, nearly $32 billion in settlements have been collected by regulators from 25 crypto companies.

⚖️ 🇺🇸 Bitnomial Exchange Sues SEC for Regulatory Abuse, for Allegedly Expanding Its Jurisdiction Over Digital Assets.

The case involves an XRP futures contract that is already regulated by the CFTC.

The AI x Crypto narrative is on a tear and
bittensor_
's $TAO token is leading the way 🚀

Here's why 👇

======================

As one of the most prominent projects in this space, Bittensor is positioning itself as the project to watch.

At its core, Bittensor is pushing a new frontier: creating a decentralized network where AI models can be trained and shared in a way that aligns incentives for both developers and users.

As the subnet limit is progressively expanded — and eventually removed altogether — the potential for exponential growth within the Bittensor ecosystem becomes clear. More subnets mean more AI models, more collaboration, and more growth for the ecosystem.

Crucially, all this activity increases demand for TAO itself. Since TAO is required to acquire any subnet token, the introduction of dTAO could further fuel its demand, making Bittensor even more attractive to investors.

TAO’s Halving in 2025
Bittensor is approaching its first halving event, slated for late 2025. Much like Bitcoin’s halving cycles, this event will cut the rate at which new TAO tokens are emitted by half.

Currently, the Bittensor network emits 1 TAO as block rewards (7,200 TAO daily) which are distributed among miners, validators, subnet owners, and delegators. However, when the halving occurs (triggered when 10.5 million TAO are in circulation), this emission will be halved to 0.5 TAO per block, reducing the daily supply of new TAO entering the market.

Why does this matter? When the supply of TAO is cut, it introduces scarcity. In any market, reduced supply with steady or rising demand (thanks to increasing subnets and introduction of dTAO) can only lead in one direction: upward.

Now let’s take a look at the macro level things happening in the world of AI that are considered positive for AI x crypto projects like Bittensor.

Issues with OpenAI
OpenAI is at a crossroads. Recently, news broke that OpenAI is transitioning from a non-profit control to a for-profit benefit corporation. Following this restructuring, the company’s valuation has soared to over $150 billion and they’ve raised $6 .6 billion in fresh funding.

Additionally, there’s been recent departures of key executives, including Chief Technology Officer Mira Murati and two other senior executives, raising concerns about potential internal issues.

Nonetheless, there is a broad regulatory squeeze on AI from various jurisdictions worldwide. The fact that centralized AI is subject to regulatory control highlights a fundamental flaw: it's too easy to control.

When a few large companies hold the keys to centralized AI, they become prime targets for government pressure and censorship. This is where decentralized AI platforms, like Bittensor, have the advantage. They cannot be shut down or censored by any single entity, as no one entity controls it.

Closing Thoughts
There’s a lot going right for Bittensor, and the rising token price is just the cherry on top. With existing momentum, the upcoming updates mentioned above, potential EVM support, and ongoing community development – such as the rapid integration of NousResearch’s breakthrough in distributed training into Bittensor – these are all strong indicators of Bittensor’s promise.

In a world where centralized AI is increasingly regulated, censored, and driven by profit motives, Bittensor offers a compelling alternative: a decentralized, community-driven approach that thrives on collaboration, innovation, and shared incentives. And that’s why it’s worth keeping an eye on.

Analysis by arjunnchand✍️

🥷 According to Coinbase, unmasking Satoshi represents a real risk for investors and knowing the name of the creator of Bitcoin would no longer be important.

“Now that the [Bitcoin] network is global and robust, discovering Satoshi’s identity is only relevant for history books or entertainment.”
says Samir Kerbage, Chief Investment Officer at Hashdex.

Analysts are particularly concerned that if Satoshi were identified and alive, he might sell his BTC and drive down the price.

As a reminder, Nakamoto owns at least 1.1 million Bitcoins worth nearly $68 billion.

Based Rollups

What are they, why do they exist, and which projects are already making waves?

A 101 explainer 👇

==================================

Scaling #Ethereum has been one of the most discussed challenges in crypto.

To address this, the community chose a rollup-centric approach. The idea is simple: Instead of hosting all applications on Ethereum, the focus is on rollups that offer faster, cheaper transactions while still settling back on Ethereum. As a result, you get faster, cheaper transactions, but still keep Ethereum’s security.

They're bringing more users and value to Ethereum, however, concerns remain about their reliance on centralized sequencers and liquidity fragmentation across chains.

This is where based rollups come in. They integrate more closely with Ethereum's infrastructure, helping retain value within the ecosystem. This new method of building rollups could bring additional value to Ethereum and $ETH .

What are Based rollups?
Based rollups, or L1-sequenced rollups, are a type of rollup where the base L1 chain, like Ethereum, manages transaction sequencing directly.

Unlike traditional rollups that rely on their own sequencers, based rollups tap into the security, liveness, and decentralization of the L1 by outsourcing transaction sequencing to the L1’s infrastructure. This infrastructure includes proposers, searchers, builders, and other actors who permissionlessly include based rollup blocks in L1 blocks.

How do Based rollups work?
Based rollups use the L1 for consensus, data availability, and settlement layers, while handling execution independently. For instance, when Ethereum is the base L1, the key layers of based rollups are as follows:

1. Execution Layer — Managed by the rollup itself, where transactions are executed off-chain.

2. Consensus Layer — Relies on Ethereum validators to sequence transactions.

3. Data Availability Layer — Uses Ethereum as the DA layer to ensure that transaction data is available for validation by anyone.

4. Settlement Layer — Also part of Ethereum, where final transaction states of the rollup are recorded.

Based rollups use Ethereum for everything from ordering transactions to settling them. While this approach may not seem radically different from traditional rollups, it fundamentally shifts how sequencing is handled. Instead of relying solely on separate sequencers, based rollups leverage Ethereum itself for transaction sequencing.

Why based rollups?
As Justin Drake outlined in his original post, based rollups are worth your attention for several reasons:

1. Inherited Liveness and Decentralization — One of the key advantages of based rollups is their ability to inherit the liveness guarantees of the base L1 chain. As long as the L1 is operational, so is the rollup.

2. Economic Alignment with L1 — The economic model of based rollups creates a mutually beneficial relationship with the L1. Priority fees and MEV from these rollups naturally flows to the L1. This synergy doesn’t just add value to the base layer, it also boosts the legitimacy and brand awareness of the rollups themselves, thanks to Ethereum’s community.

3. Cost Efficiency — Outsourcing sequencing to Ethereum reduces development costs, accelerates time to market, and lowers user costs (especially at scale) for based rollups.

However, based rollups have trade-offs. They sacrifice some profitability by relying on Ethereum for sequencing, missing out on priority fees and MEV. Additionally, they contend with Ethereum's inherent challenges, such as slow block times, which can cause latency issues.

There's a real debate that these changes might compromise the simplicity and security that initially made based rollups appealing.

I'm surprised the team didn't think of adding a live function like on twitch. Make shows or live and take a commission on donations.

What do you think? @TopG

Ps: don't copy Twitch, we need to enable a proof-of-view system to reward creators with tokens.

🇸🇻 IMF urges El Salvador to limit Bitcoin experimentation, still saying Nayib Bukele's bet on Bitcoin is a bad idea.

"What we have recommended is narrowing the scope of the Bitcoin Act, strengthening the regulatory framework and oversight of the Bitcoin ecosystem, and limiting public sector exposure to Bitcoin."

The IMF had already warned in 2021 that El Salvador's decision to make Bitcoin legal in the country raised "a number of macroeconomic, financial and legal issues."

How do I consider a trade a winner one may ask?

It's simple, I check its price after it entered one of my channels and if it went past a specific price change I count it.

Now the problem is that it's from the moment it hits the channel. I don't send the contract address manually to a buy bot on TG. Speed is mandatory for my strategy, this is why I use homemade script that allow me to buy them asap.

🇺🇸 20 DeFi platform executives write letter to Kamala Harris campaign team requesting meeting this month.

Among them, WOC founder Cleve Mesidor, Black Women Blockchain Council founder Olayinka Odeniran, and Penn State Dickinson Law professor Tonya Evans, among others, have called for a regulatory framework for web3 and DeFi.

🇺🇸 Ohio State Senator Niraj Antani introduces a bill to require Ohio to accept Bitcoin for payment of all state and local taxes.

“I introduced a bill to legalize the use of cryptocurrency to pay state and local taxes and fees. Cryptocurrency is not just the future – it’s the present. I’m proud to be the most pro-cryptocurrency member of the Ohio Senate.”

Ranger, the first perpetual DEX aggregator on solana, is now live in Beta.

🚨 Britain Gambling Commission pursues Sorare.

According to the British regulator, the web3 fantasy game is a gambling game and therefore operating without a license.

Sorare denies the charge of unlicensed gambling.

“You may have seen the statement made today by the UKGC. Please be assured that this does not change the way our site operates if you are a UK resident. We will continue to operate as normal and you will be able to continue to play as usual.

We of course strongly deny any allegations that Sorare does not comply with UK laws. We have created a new category of games, built an innovative product concept while using emerging technology.

The Commission is misinterpreting and misapplying the law in applying it to Sorare’s business. We are taking steps to ensure this is rectified and have instructed our UK lawyers to challenge the allegations currently being made by the Commission.

We have always maintained a proactive and constructive approach with regulators around the world, and we will continue to do so.”

Says Nicolas Julia, CEO of Sorare.

🇰🇷 South Korea's financial regulator wants to implement life sentences as punishment for crypto scams where the perpetrator causes victims to lose more than $4 million.

Lawmakers said the bill was partly inspired by the actions of South Korean founder Do Kwon, and later the demise of the FTX exchange.

Jupiter, a leading decentralized exchange (DEX) on Solana, made a series of major announcements today at Solana Breakpoint 2024, the Solana ecosystem's largest annual conference.

Jupiter is now making moves to capture the meme coin market by taking on the popular Pump.fun, a no-code meme coin creation platform.

Ape Pro, a massive upgrade to the existing Ape platform, is set to make meme coins fun again on Solana. It will offer a powerful, mobile-friendly trading suite that supports social logins and an easy-to-use token creation experience.

Ape Pro stands out from its competitors, such as Pump.fun, by offering lower trading fees, a seamless mobile experience, faster transactions with Google login, and a robust token creation process. With a competitive 0.5% trading fee, Ape Pro provides a cost-effective solution for traders. Its mobile optimization ensures a smooth and efficient experience on the go, while Google login simplifies the onboarding process, eliminating the need for complex seed phrases. Additionally, Ape Mint, a feature within Ape Pro, allows users to easily mint new tokens, lock liquidity for project credibility, and earn perpetual swap fees, creating a sustainable revenue stream and combatting the current PVP model in the meme coin ecosystem.

Acquisitions Signal Growth and Ambition
Jupiter's acquisition of SolanaFM, a critical infrastructure provider for the Solana ecosystem, underscores the company's commitment to strengthening it. This move will enable Jupiter to leverage SolanaFM's world-class data infrastructure to enhance its platform further.

On September 20, Reown, formerly WalletConnect, announced the launch of its Solana Appkit, a comprehensive developer tooling platform designed to simplify Solana ecosystem development.

The move promises to amplify Solana connectivity, leveraging a range of essential services that aim to expand the ecosystem. Best known for its expansive EVM network, Reown facilitates over 15M monthly wallet connections across 100+ blockchains.

Solana’s inclusion in Reown’s substantial list of supported chains comes following the network’s meteoric growth throughout 2024. Reown CEO Jess Houlgrave contends that the Solana Appkit’s launch could spearhead a new wave of applications on the network:

"The Solana ecosystem has stood out since its inception in 2020. Solana instantly drew interest from developers and teams throughout the industry, resulting in some of the biggest and most recognizable projects to date. The launch of the Solana AppKit will act as a catalyst for further growth, the AppKit simplifies building apps and ensures the best experience for end-users. We're excited to see what teams can do with these new tools". - Jess Houlgrave, Reown CEO.

What Can Developers Expect From Reown’s Appkit?
Reown’s Solana Appkit aims to streamline the development process, amplifying application connectivity across the ecosystem. The new tooling platform promises a range of essential features, including:

WalletConnect Network integration.

Simplified email and social login - Allowing users to connect to dApps using familiar, Web2 logins.

Fiat-to-Crypto onramp - Partnering with Coinbase, users can instantly buy over 100 crypto assets directly through Reown-powered apps.

Token swaps - In collaboration with 1Inch, Reown provides applications with in-app trades at the best available rates.

Web3 Messaging Notifications - Apps can now send onchain messages directly to user’s wallets.

Multi-Language support - Reown’s Solana Appkit supports developers building with React, Vue, JavaScript, and Next.js

Reown Attracts Key Launch Partners
Bringing the new Appkit to as many Solana developers, Reown has collaborated with some of the biggest names in the ecosystem. Integral DeFi apps like Jupiter, Solana’s leading aggregator, and Marinade Finance, one of Solana’s original staking providers, have lent their weight behind the launch, with additional support from Drift Protocol, a popular perpetual DEX, and Solayer, the network’s leading restaking protocol.

Drift Protocol co-founder Cindy Leow believes that Reown’s Solana Appkit will facilitate a smoother onboarding process for traders. Championing the toolkit accessibility, Leow expressed excitement at the prospect of a widening ecosystem.

“At Drift we’re continuously improving the experience for our users. As we expand, we want to see even more blockchain adoption. Integrating Reown’s Solana AppKit marks a milestone for accessibility and usability. We’re looking forward to seeing more apps in the Solana ecosystem leverage the Solana AppKit” - Cindy Leow, Drift Protocol co-founder.

Echoing Leow’s enthusiasm, Backpack CEO Armani Ferrante also demonstrated his support for the Reown Appkit.

“As the entry point for the Solana ecosystem, Backpack wallet team worked closely with the Reown team to integrate the Reown WalletKit on the mobile app end. We’re excited to partner with Reown and improve Solana users' experience. Now, users can easily access Backpack Wallet when they click the WalletConnect button on their favorite dApps.” - Armani Ferrante, Backpack CEO

Alongside Solana’s dramatic surge in user activity throughout 2024, the network has also enjoyed a significant increase in developer activity. According to the Solana 2023 Developer Report the network boasted over 2,500 monthly active developers.

The Reown Solana AppKit is expected to provide Solana’s expansive developer community with an expansive suite of tools, enabling them to create a diverse and access

Solana’s iconic memecoin scene is restructuring. Frustrated by the rampant oversaturation of token launches and a litany of extractive practices, memecoin traders are reevaluating their approach..

Liquidity has evaporated from the memecoin economy, causing dramatic price fluctuations across the board. Abandoning smaller caps, the remaining traders have solidified positions in established coins.

The collapse of smaller memecoins has led market participants to explore alternative trading strategies and take advantage of emerging DeFi applications.

Memecoin Leverage Trading Apps Gain Popularity
Losing patience with the frequent scams, rugpulls, and pump-and-dumps popular on platform’s like pump.fun, Solana meme coin traders are eager for a new meta. The oversaturation of new launches has worn the patience of even the most committed degens, drawing attention back to established memecoins.

Despite their relatively short lifespan, Solana’s veteran memecoins have birthed devout and resilient communities. While these established memecoins remain volatile, their relative stability compared to new launches has seen coins like $POPCAT , $GIGA , and $MUMU enjoy renewed interest and capital rotates away from new launches.

However, these popular coins have arguably already completed the bulk of their run. To maximize potential profits through these coins, traders are turning to applications like Lavarage to add additional weight to their positions.

Adding a layer of dynamism to the memecoin economy, Lavarage supports margin trading positions on over 400 Solana memecoins.

With Lavarage, traders can increase the size of their positions, amplifying their profit and loss. This approach breathes new life into established memecoins and gives traders a new tool in this compelling market.

Ironically, implementing leverage trading into memecion markets might actually make them safer. Traders could be compelled to speculate on established coins, rather than gamble on new pump.fun launches and hope that the coin they’ve chosen is one of the 1.38% that graduate to Raydium.

Lavarage Partners with Backpack - Boosting Rewards
After launching in mid-August, Lavarage’s Tephra Rewards campaign has kicked into gear following its collaboration with Backpack wallet.

Lavarage users who access the application and execute trades via the Backpack will benefit from a 10% points boost. Tephra points are expected to play a key role in determining airdrop allocations ahead of Lavarage’s anticipated TGE (Token Generation Event).

An Unexpected Airdrop?
In a bid to further reward users, Lavarage has partnered with the $NAMI memecoin to distribute $1 ,500 of $NAMI to traders. Over the course of the campaign, 5,325,000 $NAMI will be proportionally airdropped to users as follows:

$1000 worth of $NAMI to users who trade $NAMI with leverage

$500 worth of $NAMI to users who trade any other token with leverage

Currently, Leverage only allows traders to open long positions on its extensive list of tradable assets.

However, moderators in the Lavarage Discord server have indicated that “we have a good idea of how shorting can be implemented”, before conceding that the team “do not have any immediate plan to roll that out

💬 Ethereum is a “dictatorship,” according to Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson.

He claims that the Ethereum network is more like a "dictatorship" where Vitalik Buterin exerts too much influence over the development of the decentralized network.

The number of addresses sending $BTC on exchanges has reached its lowest level in 8 years 🔥

Selling pressure will therefore become increasingly weak in the coming months.

And it's already been felt on the charts in recent weeks.

🟢 Many indicators are turning green, will this famous bull run that we have been waiting for for more than two years finally here?
