The rollout extends Custom Pairs, which Pump.fun launched Sept. 9. That feature broadened launch pairings beyond SOL and $USDC to assets including tokenized public stocks, bitcoin and ether. Under Custom Pairs, creator fees are paid in the quote token, Pump.fun’s FAQ says. What Backs the Exposure PreStocks markets its tokens as “fully backed.” Its terms of service say tokens are intended to be collateralized by corresponding economic exposure. That can include interests in special-purpose vehicles, funds or custodial arrangements, as well as derivatives, synthetic arrangements, cash, stablecoins or other tokens. The terms allow the collateral mix to change without notice…
The offering combines three products: The World ID app, an identity wallet that gives people a secure place to claim, manage, and present a set of verified “Proofs” needed to navigate digital services in the age of AI. World ID for Zoom, built for real-time communication, which lets participants on a video call confirm they are speaking with a real human rather than a deepfake. World ID for Agents, which allows a person to establish Proofs about themselves and delegate them to an AI agent. The agent can then confirm those Proofs to a third-party platform on the person’s behalf.…
First Stop: Pita Cafe (23535 N Scottsdale Rd #102, Scottsdale, AZ 85255) Their first stop was Pita Cafe, a Mediterranean spot attached to Scottsdale Burger Bar. Both accept bitcoin. My friends came back raving about the food: everything is made fresh to order, and they say to get the spanakopita and the gyro pita. The place was packed at lunch, but service stayed fast with plenty of seating. The cashier wasn’t sure at first whether they took bitcoin. Then he noticed the Square terminal was already set up for it, and the payment went through quickly. It was his first…
Here, the reported $5 of burned $SHIB suggests that the growth is due to a large percentage change rather than a large drop in Shiba Inu’s total supply. The weekly burn rate was down 83.47% with 79.85 million $SHIB burned in the last 7 days; meanwhile, the monthly burn rate was up 84.73% with 749.93 million $SHIB burned in the last 30 days. $SHIB price action At the time of writing, Shiba Inu was up 2.33% in the last 24 hours to $0.000005, rebounding following a three-day drop towards the weekend.

For these alleged crimes, prosecutors sought a 20-year prison sentence and the seizure of over $14 million from Park’s estate. Nonetheless, the Seoul Southern District Court declared that the evidence presented by prosecutors was insufficient, as it failed to establish a direct relationship between the actions carried out by Park and the influence on coin prices. While the court found that offering fake proposals in white paper documents was deceptive, it could not establish whether these documents alone prompted the purchase of the digital currencies. “Even among the victims whose statements were confirmed, there are cases where they purchased based…
The Numbers Currently, the market is seeing varied momentum across major assets, with no specific price movements reported at this moment. However, the implications of instant settlements could reshape trading strategies moving forward, as traders consider the new dynamics introduced by this significant change. Coinbase is a leading cryptocurrency exchange platform that enables the buying, selling, and trading of various digital assets. The company’s jurisdiction is regulated by U.S. financial authorities, allowing it to operate within established legal frameworks, which underscores the importance of Armstrong’s announcement in the context of evolving market regulations. Where Do We Go From Here Traders…
Subsequent rounds brought wallet-secured project management and an interactive contract console in round 2.11, followed by security hardening including HMAC-SHA256 webhook signatures and SSRF protections. Round 2.13 added recovery tools allowing developers to import contracts deployed outside Pusharoo, while round 2.14 delivered durable Relay infrastructure with automatic RPC failover and network-aware routing. The most recent round, 2.15, introduced network-scoped multi-wallet authorisation, allowing project owners to grant granular TestNet and MainNet deployment permissions to specific wallets, addressing the operational risk of accidental production releases when a single wallet is used across both environments. Core features The public release includes seven primary…
Ten Opt-Outs Claimed Against a Notice Listing Nine Figure co-founder Mike Cagney says 10 companies had opted out of tokenized stock issuance on OKXICE as of last week, a count that exceeds the nine objecting issuers named in the venue’s own October 15 notice. In his October 19 post, Cagney argued that companies should benefit on a first-order basis because an underlying DTC share backs each token, giving issuers a marginal buyer, but he questioned the product beyond that. He wrote that it remains unclear whether the ecosystem offers a path to leverage or stock lending, and that the uncertainty…
Myriad: Where does Solana go next? Click to make your prediction. Rather than wait for that version to go live and then fix it, developers have published a follow-up, LendingProtocolV1_1, that corrects issues in the original before it ever takes effect. The documentation now lists both amendments as requirements for the feature, meaning the network would adopt the repaired version from the start. The approach reflects how changes reach the $XRP Ledger. New features and fixes ship as amendments that must earn support from at least 80% of trusted validators over a two-week period before activating. Because the original lending…
The Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCA) Crypto Alliance, a group established to help organizations looking to implement the EU framework on digital assets, largely supported the SEC’s proposed changes to disclosure requirements. The alliance recommended specific amendments to have the SEC better define “concepts and data structures specific to crypto assets and the disclosure requirements.” Others, including SkyBridge Capital founder Anthony Scaramucci, said they would support the SEC’s proposed crypto rules. Scaramucci said the digital asset regulations responded to “organic adoption” and “represent a return to the Commission’s proper role” without citing inaction from Congress on the Digital Asset Market…
