In the past few days, Ethereum and the entire crypto community have been focused on the incident where Kelp DAO (a liquidity re-staking protocol) was hacked and affected Aave (a decentralized lending platform).
The Arbitrum Security Council exercised emergency authority to freeze and recover approximately $72 million worth of assets from addresses suspected to be controlled by North Korean hackers. This is the first time in the crypto industry that a "single"

Over the past month, the term “transit hub” has frequently appeared on many people’s homepages. Some players who used to take advantage of airdrops in the crypto space have quietly transformed into “API transit hub” vendors, offering token import and export services.
So, what exactly is a “transit hub”? It isn’t a newly invented technology, but an arbitrage model built on global AI service price differences and access barriers. Although this space faces multiple challenges—privacy, security, compliance, and more—it still attracts large numbers of individuals and small teams to enter.
Then, what is an “API transit hub”? And how does it achieve token arbitrage amid global AI price differences and access barriers, drawing in many individuals and small teams?
Next, we’ll break it down from its essence and operating process.

Head prediction market platform Kalshi and Polymarket are eager to launch high-leverage crypto derivatives; meanwhile, U.S. federal and state regulators are engaged in fierce court battles over whether these products are illegal gambling or legitimate financial instruments.
Over the past year, these prediction market platforms have gained fame for allowing users to bet on various real-world events. Now, they are preparing to launch perpetual contracts (complex contracts without an expiration date that allow traders to amplify exposure using borrowed funds), blurring the line between niche prediction platforms and full-featured crypto asset exchanges.
This shift significantly broadens their potential user base but also amplifies the platforms' legal risks.
Perpetual contracts drive prediction platforms toward 24/7 trading

On April 23, the U.S.-Iran war entered its eighth week.
Just a few days ago, the situation briefly turned for the better: the ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon was implemented, Iran announced the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, and negotiations in Islamabad seemed within reach. But then, Trump announced that the U.S. maritime blockade would not be lifted and ordered inspections of ships bound for Iran. Iran immediately announced that it would close the strait again and firmly refused a second round of talks.
This kind of flip-flopping and unpredictability isn’t the first time.
From the start of the war until now, this conflict can always be described with the same word: madness. A “mad king” president who was pulled out of the war room by his aides, fought a war that offered no way out with reversals by the hour, and created a runaway market that even mainstream media can’t make sense of.
And the latest disclosures allow us to truly see where this “madness and loss of control” actually comes from—and where it may take the situation next.
“Mad King” Trump: the one who was pulled out…

The person who built this little fox no longer wants to build it.
On April 23, MetaMask co-founder Dan Finlay announced his official departure from Consensys, ending a ten-year development career. The reason is professional burnout and wanting to spend more time with family.
MetaMask is perhaps the most recognizable product application in the crypto world. That orange little fox logo is known by almost everyone who has used a crypto wallet. In 2016, Finlay and another co-founder, Aaron Davis, created this browser extension within Consensys, allowing ordinary users to interact with Ethereum without running a full node.
Over ten years, according to statistics from multiple third-party platforms, the global installation count exceeds 100 million, with approximately 3,000 monthly active users.

These days, many people are frantically asking me one question: why am I so close to the crypto world?
Actually, this connection started around 2022, and it has been about four years now. As a professional in the traditional financial sector, we have been closely monitoring and tracking the trends in the entire crypto asset market.
Today, I am here to give a speech. The original intention is quite simple: I just want to tell everyone a story from history. For me, I am considered one of the main beneficiaries of the last era's dividends. You might see my title as "Economist," but I am not purely an academic.
Over the past 25 years, my core experience—what we have been focusing on—is what everyone understands as traditional hedge funds. You must be curious: why are these traditional capital, traditional finance people, and funds starting to pay attention to crypto assets?
