ChainCatcher news, pump.fun co-founder Alon Cohen posted on X: "I am disgusted by the events surrounding LIBRA that have unfolded over the past few days. The people behind this project have gained considerable personal benefits at the expense of many users, ecosystems, and even entire countries. I hope the responsible parties receive the punishment they deserve.I know the situation is still developing, so if you are aware of any misconduct by participants in the ecosystem, no matter how small, you should speak up. I also understand that some may be in difficult situations, so my DMs are open for me to offer assistance.Due to the damage caused by these events, many have expressed that this could be the 'end of Meme coins.' While I sympathize with those who wish to see the end of Meme coins because they are tired of such incidents occurring, the fact is that the demand for permissionless on-chain creation/speculation from users will not disappear."

ChainCatcher news, according to The Block, Offchain Labs has launched the Arbitrum BoLD protocol on the mainnet to enable permissionless validation. After being approved by governance voting, BoLD is now in use on the Arbitrum chain, One, and Nova.The system replaces the previously whitelisted validators with a permissionless mechanism, allowing anyone interested in network security to participate.

ChainCatcher news, according to The Block, Kraken's Ethereum Layer-2 scaling solution Ink will enable a permissionless fraud proof mechanism this Thursday, marking an important technological advancement in its rapid development.Ink becomes the first superchain network to launch a multi-"challenger" mechanism after testing on the Optimism mainnet, initially operated by the automated protocol Gelato and Kraken running the challenger system. Fraud proofs are a crucial feature of Optimistic Rollups, allowing users to challenge the validity of transactions and correct erroneous states.The initial challenger fund for Ink is provided by Kraken with 49 ETH (approximately $156,000), and users can also participate in challenges by staking ETH, thereby promoting on-chain decentralization.

ChainCatcher message, Vitalik responded to comments about "the level of governance in Zuzalu, Apecoin governance forum, and Arbitrum DAO" by stating: "Technically, any currency is permissioned: you need to obtain permission from an existing holder to become a holder.This indicates that there is actually a continuous trade-off between the permission levels of Apecoin and ZuVillage, and we can imagine a structure in between: becoming a member requires obtaining permission from multiple existing members, but it is still very open.For example, you can imagine a mechanism in the style of secondary financing, weighted by existing member points, to accumulate membership points. This is what I hope to see in OP Citizen House, Zuzalu community, and other DAOs that are experimenting. Formalizing and measuring membership is upstream of any formal governance, and it would be really cool if there were more ways to achieve highly decentralized and permissionless formal membership, but not just through token holding."

ChainCatcher message, Solayer announced the launch of the Restaking endogenous application validation system (endogenous AVS) standard on the Solana mainnet.Participants can stake SOL to receive sSOL, which can then be delegated to selected e-AVS to earn native staking rewards (8.12%), MEV boosts, and AVS rewards. Solayer also released the v1 development toolkit, allowing developers to interact directly with core functionalities. The project has been audited by Halborn Security and plans to introduce more features, including an in-protocol fee module and permissionless AVS management.

ChainCatcher news, according to The Block, Eigen Labs is launching permissionless token support on the EigenLayer protocol, which will allow ERC-20 tokens to be added as restorable assets.Eigen Labs stated that after completing the initial "testing phase" on the testnet, the mainnet deployment is expected to start next week.

ChainCatcher news, the decentralized derivatives exchange dYdX announced that it will launch the dYdX Unlimited upgrade for dYdX Chain this fall, including features such as permissionless market launch, MegaVault (which sources liquidity from dYdX users and acts as a market maker for all dYdX Chain markets), the Affiliates Program, and permissioned keys (providing a more secure and customizable environment for institutions and high-value traders).

ChainCatcher news, EigenDA indicates that it is working towards achieving permissionless payments for blob throughput on EigenDA, which will be released later this year. When this system is launched, EigenDA will still provide reserved bandwidth for high throughput use cases at a fixed rate.EigenDA is currently generating a sustained synthetic load of 0.6 MB/s and has already conducted load tests on the mainnet with peak throughput of up to 10 MB/s. In comparison, Ethereum's 4844 blob throughput is 0.032 MB/s, while Celestia's mainnet is at 0.16 MB/s.

ChainCatcher news, the financial platform FWX on the AVAX chain has announced the opening of permissionless deployment; it will allow tokens on the DEX to participate in leveraged trading and create lending markets for the DEX.It is reported that FWX is a decentralized platform based on EVM, providing two main services: Decentralized Derivatives Exchange (DDEX) and Lending Pool (LBP). The protocol employs an Automated Position Hedging mechanism (APH), which is an automated market maker (AMM) for futures that uses the liquidity in its pool to fully hedge the risks of all positions on the chain.

ChainCatcher news, Fox reporter Eleanor Terrett posted on the X platform stating that SEC Chairman Gary Gensler mentioned that due to the permissionless nature of blockchain, DeFi faces challenges in enforcing anti-money laundering laws.

ChainCatcher news, according to The Block, the Ethereum Layer 2 network Taiko based on zkRollup has enabled permissionless ordering and proving.

ChainCatcher news, the decentralized perpetual contract trading protocol Hyperliquid has launched the HIP-1 permissionless Spot Token deployment feature on the mainnet. HIP-1 is a fungible token standard with a capped supply that supports on-chain spot order book trading between HIP-1 tokens. Deployers need to bid Gas fees through a Dutch auction, which lasts for 31 hours. The project team strongly recommends that deployers first try on the testnet to avoid issues on the mainnet.Please note that Spot Tokens deployed by users are not officially endorsed, and users should be aware of the risks when trading unfamiliar tokens and conduct due diligence.

ChainCatcher message, Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin published a new article on X, stating that the Ethereum network will focus on enhancing its permissionless and decentralized characteristics in the near and medium term, making significant strides in decentralization with concepts such as stateless nodes, MEV mitigation, and single-slot finality.Helios has made great progress in providing "practical light clients" for Ethereum. Now, we need to have this included by default in Ethereum wallets and require RPC providers to offer proofs when delivering results, so that these results can be verified, and to extend light client technology to Layer 2 protocols. If Ethereum expands through a rollup-centric roadmap, Layer 2 needs to achieve the same security and decentralization guarantees as Layer 1. In a rollup-centric world, there are many other things we should take more seriously; decentralized and efficient cross-L2 bridges are one of them. Many dapps obtain their logs through centralized protocols because Ethereum's native log scanning has become too slow. We can improve this through dedicated decentralized sub-protocols; this is a solution I propose.Ethereum L1 can and should be a robust foundational layer for L2 projects. We should deeply respect the unique properties that make Ethereum special and continue to strive to maintain and improve these properties as Ethereum scales.

ChainCatcher message, dYdX founder Antonio posted on platform X that smart contracts, AMM treasury, permissionless listing market, pre-launch market, and other features will be launched in the coming months.
