Only 2 days until Solana's biggest global conference begins in Singapore.

Here are some sneak peeks from the event.

⚖️ SEC Sues 3 Individuals and 5 Companies for Pig Butchering Scam

These are the SEC's first steps toward this type of crypto scam.

Pig butchering is a type of trust-based investment scam in which fraudsters befriend victims on social media or dating apps, gain their trust, and convince them to invest large amounts of money in fictitious crypto platforms before stealing their funds and disappearing.

🏆❌ The winner of the "Best Content Creator" award at Token2049 in Singapore has deleted his X account after being accused of using bots to manipulate his stats.

Professor Crypto was honored with the Key Opinion Leader (KOL) award last night at a side event at Token2049.
He then shared this success on X.

ZachXBT looked into the influencer's stats and according to investigator Onchain, he used thousands of bots.

“It might be a good idea to fire the thousands of bots you use on all social media platforms to fool people into thinking you have influence.”
says ZachXBT.

He then cited CFTC law that states that "no person shall sell or purchase false indicators of influence on social media, such as followers or views generated by a bot or hijacked account."

The effect is clear and sounds like a confession for Professor Crypto who deleted his X account shortly afterwards.

📈 Bitcoin dominance at 58.46%.

This is its highest level in more than 3 years, on April 3, 2021.

Thoughts on the SCF situation? Hope some of you cooked on the new one 🤝

Meta Will Use Public Data From Adults In The Uk For Artificial Intelligence Training

Meta will start using publicly shared content from adult users in the UK on Facebook and Instagram to train its artificial intelligence models. The company will assess publicly available information, such as posts, comments, photos, and descriptions, from users on both platforms.

Meta emphasized that its AI is designed to reflect diverse global communities and plans to expand its AI initiatives to more countries and languages later this year. The company clarified that it does not use data from accounts of individuals under 18 in the UK.

In July, Meta halted AI assistant deployments in the EU following an order from the Irish Data Protection Commission (DPC) due to data privacy concerns. Meta claims it uses Facebook and Instagram user data with their consent and offers an option to opt out.

UK-based adults on Facebook and Instagram will receive in-app notifications detailing Meta's data usage practices and offering an option to object to the use of their data for AI training. Meta stated that it will accept all existing and new objection forms.

The DPC, responsible for enforcing the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), is intensifying its oversight. On September 12, it launched a cross-border investigation into Google Ireland Limited to determine if it complies with EU data protection laws in developing its AI models.

The investigation will focus on the use of EU citizens' personal data in training Google’s advanced language model, Pathways Language Model 2 (PaLM2), introduced on May 10, 2023.

The DPC also investigated the social media platform X and concluded the investigation after X agreed to meet the necessary compliance standards. On September 4, X agreed to stop using personal data of EU and European Economic Area (EEA) users to train its AI chatbot, Grok.

The Head Of Etf Store Has Stated That It Is Unlikely For New Spot Cryptocurrency Etfs To Be Listed Under The Current Administration

Nate Geraci, President of The ETF Store, recently stated on X that beyond political factors, it is difficult to foresee any new spot cryptocurrency ETFs being approved under the current administration.

Lock in🔒

🔵 Coinbase launches cbBTC, its Wrapped Bitcoin.

The ERC-20 token will be backed 1:1 by Bitcoin (BTC) held by Coinbase.

cbBTC will be supported on Base and Ethereum, with plans to expand to other blockchains.

“By aggregating assets across more chains, wrapped assets like cbBTC help build a more efficient, interconnected and expansive financial ecosystem.”

💸 In 2023, Tether generated $6 .2 billion in profits with about 100 employees, more than BlackRock's $5 .5 billion and its 20,000 employees

🚨 The $1 .5 million CryptoPunks 2386 just sold for just $23 ,000 in a stroke of genius.

To put this into context, you should know that this CryptoPunk was split into 10,000 ERC20 tokens on 09/26/2020, and distributed among 257 holders, via a platform now out of service called Niftex.

Indeed, this NFT being very rare, it had been split in order to become more affordable and to allow everyone to own a part of a Punks.

But with the platform closed, it became difficult to sell or buy a fragment of this Punk.

However, the smart contract linked to the NFT remained valid on the blockchain, and an individual activated a buyback feature to ultimately take possession of the NFT for a fraction of its current value.

"Any shareholder can propose a buyout price, and if no one counters, he can buy the asset after 14 days."

So the offer was 0.001 ETH per share, or 10 ETH for the 10,000 shares. And the countdown that almost no one could see began.

After the 14 days, the individual got his hands on the NFT for a pittance.

Developer 0xQuit calls the operation the "theft of the century."

Imagine hating me but reading every few weeks/months that a corrupt police force find and steal from me MORE MONEY than you’ll make in your entire life.

Then tweeting that I’m poor “this time”.

😅😅.

Nobody can ever imagine how hilarious I find this.

Sentiment is down, and critics have been quick to point out ETH's underperformance against SOL while largely attributing this to a perceived loss of mindshare and users to L2s.

This narrative has sparked a crucial debate: Are L2s Ethereum?

arjunnchand
brings the analysis...

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

🤔 Symbiotic or Separatist?
L2s have been a core component of Ethereum's rollup-centric roadmap from the very beginning. They were envisioned as extensions (technical and cultural) of Ethereum, designed to expand its capabilities and attract a broader user base.

At their core, L2s are deeply linked with Ethereum. They share its DNA — relying on ETH as the currency, benefitting from Ethereum's security blanket, and utilizing it for data storage and settlement. It's like a startup leveraging its parent company's infrastructure and brand recognition, a win-win for both.

The symbiotic relationship between L2s and Ethereum is undeniable. L2s thrive on Ethereum's infrastructure and security, while Ethereum benefits from the increased activity and increased demand for ETH, making it a better store of value.

By offering lower fees and faster transaction times, L2s have made it easier for developers to build different types of applications. Look at the explosion of memecoins on Base or the rise of SocialFi platforms like Farcaster creating new markets for users.

Beyond that, L2s are becoming major hubs for DeFi activity, and ETH, the asset, is at the heart of this ecosystem. Look at the numbers:
arbitrum
,
Optimism
,
@base
— these chains are dominated by ETH-related assets.

🧛‍♂️ Vampire attack?
However, one of the primary arguments against the rollup-centric approach to scaling Ethereum is the assumption that L2s may not continue to rely on Ethereum. Sure, L2s and Ethereum seem like a happy family now. But what if L2s build their own empires and ditch Ethereum altogether? No more relying on Ethereum for security, no more ETH as gas, not even needing Ethereum's block space.

This "L2s go rogue" fear is a legitimate concern. Technically, they could build independent ecosystems with their own validators as they would then be able to own the entire modular blockchain stack. So, is this the future – a messy breakup between L2s and Ethereum? Not necessarily.

We can all agree that there are perhaps a few too many L2s. Too many copycats. Too little differentiation. It's like a thousand startups chasing the same market, all promising the same thing. This isn't healthy.

What we need are L2s that matter. L2s that offer something unique, something that sets them apart. Security, app diversity, GTM strategy — these are the areas where we need to see real innovation.

But we must be wary of ‘echo chambers’. These zones of chains should not become isolated universes. A healthy L2 ecosystem is one where chains work together, not in isolation. We need bridges, not moats.

We need collaboration. We need communication. We need education. We need incentives. We need to build shared infrastructure and standards that foster seamless connectivity across L2s. Only then can we truly win together.

💭 Closing Thoughts
You can say that L2s aren’t Ethereum. You can argue L2s aren’t even extensions of Ethereum. But you cannot deny the fact that L2s enhance the utility of Ethereum and ETH.

The "L2s vs. Ethereum" debate is a false dichotomy. This isn't a zero-sum game. Ultimately, Ethereum and L2s are in this together. Let's build a future where Ethereum and L2s thrive as a symbiotic whole, and push the crypto ecosystem forward.

The debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris was heated to say the least...

The summary 👇

What initially got the most attention was that Kamala Harris appeared to have worn "earpiece" earrings so that people could whisper "punchlines" to her.

Tensions over Ukraine:
Harris accuses Trump of literally wanting to abandon Ukraine, acknowledges that Russia has not threatened to use nuclear weapons but advocates a rapid end to the conflict.

Disagreements over foreign policy:
Trump fears global escalation, Harris defends international engagement

Lively exchanges on the economy:
Harris criticizes the tariffs that Trump wants to impose (especially on Chinese products), calling them a "sales tax" on the middle class, and blames it for current inflation.

Heated debate on immigration:
Trump alarmist accuses Biden-Harris administration of letting in "dangerous" immigrants while Kamala Harris accuses him of dividing the nation.

Abortion Clash:
Harris defends abortion rights, Trump calls for return of decision to states.

Post debate:
Taylor Swift, "America's Sweetheart," has announced her support for Kamala Harris. The potential impact on "young people" is massive

What is Hana Network?
Hana Network is a blockchain platform that integrates with EigenLayer and Babylon to enhance security and functionality. It allows users to stake assets on EigenLayer and Babylon while taking advantage of their advanced security protocols. Hana Network uses cryptographic techniques to ensure transaction security and preserve user privacy. It also supports multi-party group broadcasts and anonymous routing protocols. With these integrations, Hana Network aims to offer reliable and secure decentralized solutions for various applications, making blockchain technology more accessible and efficient.

If the government was a real business it would have been bankrupt a long time ago. The only thing keeping it going is the fact that people pay their taxes out of fear of going to jail if they don't (violence) and most importantly THE MAGIC MONEY PRINTER.

Further proof of the charade: the US government has hired 87,000 new agents to collect taxes with an average salary of 100k/year.

So this cost taxpayers $8 .7 billion and these agents managed to collect $1 .3 billion.

So, a deficit of -$7.4 billion... which will be paid by taxpayers. And of course the government will boast about having collected $1 .3 billion more in taxes.

How did we get here?

The market is rising again 🥳

I hope #BullVerse has something in store for us, because we're struggling a bit compared to the others. 🤔

We need the community to do raids, advertising ....

We don't have enough visibility or activity. Where's our meme or posts?

Need reassurance for my bag guys 😢

🚨 Dominance of #Bitcoin still on this trendline.

Bitcoin Dominance Decline: This is when Bitcoin's share of the total cryptocurrency market cap declines, often because #altcoins s are gaining value or popularity more quickly.

Altseason: This is a period where #altcoins performs much better than #Bitcoin , with prices rising sharply for these cryptocurrencies.

PS: a decrease in dominance does not in any way mean a decrease in the price of #Bitcoin .

#Altseason Tick, Tock ⏳
