Coinbase will automatically convert customers’ remaining GYEN holdings into USDC next week, ahead of the stablecoin issuer’s final redemption deadline.The crypto exchange said in an Oct. 20 notice that it will disable GYEN transfers on Oct. 26 and convert outstanding balances between Oct. 26 and Oct. 30 at prevailing market rates without transaction fees.The decision comes as GMO-Z.com Trust Company winds down the Japanese yen-backed stablecoin, which has a market capitalization of approximately $13 million. Customers seeking to avoid Coinbase’s conversion must withdraw their tokens before Oct. 26.The shutdown marks the final chapter for a stablecoin whose troubled trading history…

Evernorth’s newly effective public-warrant registration creates a potential $132 million funding route for the XRP treasury company. Whether that money increases XRP per share depends on how much additional XRP accompanies each new economic share. Issuing shares expands the ownership base, so XRP holdings must grow faster than that base for the ratio to improve.A conditional model using its disclosed closing capitalization and 473 million-token treasury puts the break-even allocation at roughly 70% of gross exercise cash at the October 22 XRP price snapshot of $1.32. That is an illustration of the financing economics, rather than Evernorth’s verified current per-share…

Crypto has spent years perfecting the launchpad. First came token launchpads, where anyone could create and list a token in a few clicks. Then, in 2024, agent launchpads arrived on Base, most visibly Virtuals Protocol, turning AI agents into tradable tokens.AX1, a startup ecosystem on Base, is betting on a third kind. It has launched AX1 Console 2.0, which it calls an agentic activities launchpad. The difference is in what gets launched: not an asset, but an agent with a job to do.Defining the categoryAX1 defines an agentic activities launchpad as a product where people launch AI agents into work…

Binance’s stablecoin flows with Tether have reversed by nearly $14 billion, raising concerns about declining liquidity at the world’s largest crypto exchange.An Oct. 22 investigation by blockchain analytics firm Bitquery found that Binance-linked wallets transferred $23.1 billion in USDT to Tether during 2026 while receiving $15.6 billion, leaving a $7.5 billion net imbalance toward the issuer.

The findings raise questions about how much buying power remains…

Uniswap Labs launched aggregator hooks on Ethereum, Base, and Robinhood Chain on Oct. 22, letting its web app and API route swaps through external liquidity from Curve, Fluid, PancakeSwap, and other venues.The new adapters were developed by Uniswap Labs. In a separate September study of third-party hooks, trading aggregator 0x reported that malicious Uniswap v4 hooks quoted one price and settled at another, with some trades delivering as much as 50% less than quoted.Uniswap’s founder Hayden Adams rejected the criticism then, and the public record shows documented mitigations alongside unresolved disputes over whether they work.0x’s Sept. 14 research examined 84,163…

Coinbase Ireland’s customer-cash safeguarding account was short by about €5 million in 2024, a settlement disclosed by the Central Bank of Ireland on Oct. 22 shows.

Both sanctions still require High Court confirmation before taking effect.The case concerns Coinbase Ireland Limited, the group’s e-money institution. It issues and redeems electronic…

Polling firm Wedgewood admitted on Oct. 20 that it fabricated most of its election surveys, and VoteHub, one of the aggregators that carried its results, is also the data source for recurring Kalshi contracts.Kalshi’s September 2025 regulatory filing names VoteHub as the source agency for those contracts and states that “revisions to the Underlying made after Expiration will not be accounted for in determining the Expiration Value.”The two facts raise a question about what happens to a settled contract when the polling number behind it is later withdrawn or found false.Researchers at FiftyPlusOne requested raw data from Wedgewood’s Mississippi Senate…

Solana validators retired TowerBFT at slot 459,653,000 on 21 October and handed consensus to Alpenglow. Votes from 446 of 654 participating validators certified the handover block, a switch the Solana Foundation timed at about 900 milliseconds. Validator votes no longer travel as transactions, and each voting validator now pays a flat 0.8 SOL fee per epoch. Solana replaced its core voting system on Wednesday with Alpenglow, an upgrade that targets transaction finality in about 150 milliseconds instead of 12.8 seconds. Anza, the core engineering team that built Alpenglow, said validators retired TowerBFT at slot 459,653,000, at about 14:00 UTC that…
