The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) seized over $560,000 in cryptocurrency through court-authorized actions and took control of domains and servers allegedly used by Hamas for fundraising and recruiting supporters. The related actions involved three seizures on March 25, June 25, and October 10, 2025.Investigators identified a crypto chat group that directed supporters to fundraising websites and tracked the rotating cryptocurrency addresses. The operation also obtained information on thousands of individuals who had contacted Hamas online, attempting to donate via cryptocurrency or traditional means. This operation expanded upon the $200,000 cryptocurrency seizure announced in March 2025. At least 17 related addresses had transferred over $1.5 million since October 2024, with funds having passed through exchanges, over-the-counter brokers, and accounts in Turkey.

The founder of Arbitrum, Steven Goldfeder, and Solana co-founder, Toly, engaged in a debate over the fee model of Robinhood Chain. Toly claimed that the 10% revenue share paid to Arbitrum by Robinhood Chain is sufficient to cover four times the transaction fees on the Solana chain, suggesting that if deployed on Solana, user gas fees could significantly decrease. In response, Goldfeder stated that Robinhood could retain about 90% of gas revenue under the Arbitrum architecture, thus choosing Arbitrum to "be the landlord, not the tenant."Toly countered that Robinhood could charge fees at the application front end while utilizing a lower-cost underlying network; Goldfeder, however, indicated that a large amount of on-chain activity does not go through the Robinhood front end, and if it were merely a "tenant" of the underlying network, Robinhood would not be able to capture the revenue generated from these peripheral activities.According to market news, Robinhood evaluated both Solana and Arbitrum during the product initiation phase and ultimately chose Arbitrum, which allows for independent chain deployment.

Vitalik Buterin stated that recent discussions around transaction formats, including EIP-8141, the "future state" proposal, UTXO, PBT, key-controlled randomness, and recursive STARK memory pools, have helped the Ethereum community better understand the concepts of "actions" and "dependencies" in transactions. Dependencies can be processed in parallel, and some dependencies that do not require state access can be validated at the memory pool layer, potentially further compressing execution and data costs through STARK.Vitalik believes that Ethereum's future scalability needs to strike a balance between a dynamically flexible execution model and a more easily statically analyzable constrained model, providing lower gas costs for transactions and state access that can be statically analyzed. If EIP-8141 is designed properly, it will not only be a milestone achievement in a decade of account abstraction work but also prepare for decentralized-friendly large-scale scalability in the coming years.

Vitalik posted on the X platform, stating that recent research on transaction formats has led to a clearer understanding of "actions" and "dependencies" in Ethereum transactions, both of which can be optimized separately; signatures, UTXO's Merkle proofs, and ZK-SNARK or STARK belong to dependencies, while the call to send ETH belongs to actions.Dependencies can be processed in parallel, with state-related dependencies handled by the memory pool, while pure dependencies can be processed once at the memory pool layer and may be replaced by STARK proofs, thereby reducing execution and data processing. Vitalik pointed out that Ethereum's current scaling strategy needs to clearly distinguish between dynamic flexibility and static analyzability, with the latter achieving lower Gas costs; based on transaction volume, over 90% of Ethereum activities do not require dynamic flexibility. The EIP-8141 transaction type is developing towards a universal and minimalist call list, with new state types, recursive STARK memory pools, and key-controlled nonces also belonging to this direction.

According to Be In Crypto, Binance founder Zhao Changpeng recently stated that YZi Labs' investments over the past few months will become the highest return layout, as they invested in cryptocurrency prices close to the lows of the bear market.YZi Labs has disclosed seven investments in 2026: in January, they invested in the on-chain trading terminal Genius and the digital asset custodian BitGo; in March, they led a $52 million investment in RoboForce and invested $1 million in the venture project Atlas Scout; in April, they made an additional investment in the prediction market Predict.fun; in May, they led an $8 million seed round investment in the AI agent payment settlement layer AEON; in August, they invested in the cross-chain fixed-rate lending platform TermMax.Zhao Changpeng believes that the influx of funds into AI is eliminating short-term cryptocurrency teams, and the return of AI funds to digital assets has already begun. Bitcoin has rebounded after a 47% drop from its peak, but it is still far below the October high.

According to Polish Radio, the Polish House of Representatives failed to overturn President Karol Nawrocki's veto of the cryptocurrency market regulation bill.
