MultiversX has given node operators nine days to prepare for an upgrade designed to make its blockchain 10 times faster.The Supernova upgrade is scheduled to activate Sept. 10 during epoch 2233, cutting block times to 600 milliseconds from six seconds and forcing more than 5,000 nodes to migrate onto software capable of processing the new rules.The upgrade goes beyond shorter block intervals. Supernova restructures MultiversX’s consensus pipeline so validators can vote on a block while execution proceeds in parallel, removing transaction execution from the critical path that previously constrained block production.The design is also intended to preserve deterministic finality while…

Bitcoin’s hashrate has spent 316 days below its record as miners redirect power toward AI.The seven-day network average stood near 914 exahashes per second on Aug. 31, about 20.6% below its October 2025 peak of 1,151.6 EH/s. The stretch without a new high is the longest in a decade, exceeding the previous 252-day maximum in the same Blockchain.com series.The decline followed months of weak mining economics, summer power curtailments and a growing shift by some operators toward artificial intelligence and high-performance computing. Twenty One Capital CEO Raphael Zagury has described the episode as Bitcoin’s first sustained “economic hashrate bear market.”That…

Robinhood Chain revenue from applications totaled between $2.66 million and $2.82 million over a rolling 24-hour window early on Sept. 1, creating an eye-catching measure of network activity with no disclosed bridge to Robinhood’s corporate accounts.DefiLlama tracks application revenue, chain revenue and chain fees as separate layers. Its dashboard showed $963,612 of chain revenue on $1.07 million of chain fees during the same period. Public records provide no formula that turns either revenue figure into a Robinhood GAAP revenue line.The recipients also show where the app total went. DefiLlama’s revenue table placed trading bot GMGN first at about $1.11 million…

Examples of recommended 2027 Working Dog Commemorative Coin designs illustrate the type of artwork developed through the US Mints Artistic Infusion Program The United States Mint on Aug. 31 named 37 artists to its Artistic Infusion Program (AIP), including four newcomers who will have opportunities to develop designs for future U.S. coins and medals. Kristine Campbell, Donovan Corcoran, Gian Galang and James Martin are joining the program for the first time. The other 33 artists are returning AIP participants. Their selection follows a nationwide search launched earlier this year. As CoinNews reported in January, the Mint accepted applications from Jan.…

The Pocket Bitcoin breach exposed more than email addresses and support conversations for 291 customers, the company said. Some copied records linked real-world identities to public Bitcoin activity.The finding expands the scope described in the Swiss non-custodial Bitcoin service’s Aug. 21 disclosure. In an Aug. 31 update, Pocket Bitcoin said correspondence with partner banks contained varying combinations of names, postal addresses, Bitcoin addresses used for transactions, identity-document copies and source-of-funds records. Most people in the cohort had only some of those fields exposed, the company said.The distinction creates a privacy and phishing risk without giving an attacker control of anyone’s…

The Royal Canadian Mint is marking the 150th anniversary of the Library of Parliament with two new collector coins: a $200 pure gold issue and a $20 fine silver coin struck in ultra high relief. Royal Canadian Mint 2026 gold and silver coins marking the 150th anniversary of the Library of Parliament Opened in Ottawa in 1876, the Library is the only surviving portion of the original Centre Block on Parliament Hill. It escaped the 1916 fire that destroyed the main building, aided by its separation from Centre Block and iron doors that were closed as the blaze spread. The…

Adjusted USDC transfer volume reached $32 trillion in 2026 through Coin Metrics’ August measurement, with each dollar of supply turning over 741 times at an annualized rate. Those figures signal reach and settlement intensity. Circle’s second-quarter revenue, however, remained dominated by yield on the assets backing USDC.For the three months ended June 30, reserve income supplied $667.7 million of Circle’s $701.3 million in total revenue and reserve income, or 95.2%. Transaction revenue was $5.3 million. Volume is a usage signal; balances and yields still determine most of Circle’s revenue base.Arc, Circle’s blockchain infrastructure scheduled for a Sept. 16 public mainnet…

On August 24, next-gen AI infrastructure platform B.AI hit a major milestone: cumulative token throughput across its sitewide free-access campaign officially crossed the 2 trillion threshold. The record-breaking run follows a series of aggressive, developer-first plays that have turned heads across the industry.While rising prices from leading model providers have sparked cost anxiety across the ecosystem, B.AI took the opposite approach. The momentum kicked off on August 17, when B.AI opened up free access to DeepSeek V4 Flash—shattering platform throughput records at 220 billion tokens in a single day. That was followed by sitewide free access to Tencent Hy3, DeepSeek-V4-Flash-Vision-Exp,…

Three blockchain networks stopped producing blocks within four days. Each blockchain halt used different emergency powers, and Cronos alone also replaced part of its canonical history.Cronos said validators halted the network by consensus after an exploit affected Tectonic, restored the chain to state from before the incident, and resumed production from block 90,896,189. The action replaced state as well as stopping production. Transactions and state changes that existed only after the chosen restore point no longer belonged to the restarted canonical chain.Ontology and ICON used different emergency levers. Ontology suspended block production before confirming malicious attack activity, and its Sept.…

Core DAO validator rewards exceeded the protocol’s intended levels for a small group of validators, the project said, creating an unresolved supply question for the CORE token as two exchanges restricted transfers.Core DAO said it had identified the root cause and was working on mitigations. It said user assets were safe. It described the incident as limited to reward issuance and said network security and custody were unaffected. Core did not disclose the amount of excess CORE, the validators or reward rounds involved, or the technical cause. It promised a postmortem after the issue is contained.
