1. Grayscale: Crypto x AI Project Overview How Crypto Achieves Decentralized AI
AI is one of the most promising emerging technologies of this century, with the potential to exponentially increase human productivity and drive medical breakthroughs. While AI may be important today, its influence will only grow, with PwC estimating that it will grow into a $15 trillion industry by 2030. Click to read
2.Galaxy: The costs and benefits of Ethereum re-staking
The industry's experiments in extending blockchains through modularity have led to the creation of many new protocols and supporting middleware. However, each of these networks needs to build its own security moat, usually through a variant of the Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus, a resource- and time-intensive process that has led to many isolated security pools.

3.Vitalik: Why I oppose political voting based on "whether to support encryption"
In the past few years, "cryptocurrency" has become an increasingly important topic in political policy, and various jurisdictions are considering bills to regulate various participants in blockchain affairs in various ways. This includes the European Union's Crypto Asset Market Regulation (MiCA), the UK's regulatory efforts on stablecoins, and the complex legislative and enforcement regulatory attempts of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that we have seen in the United States. In my opinion, many of these bills are reasonable, although there are concerns that the government will try extreme measures, such as considering almost all currencies as securities or banning self-hosted wallets. In the wake of these concerns, the cryptocurrency space has increasingly tended to become more actively involved in politics, and to support political parties and candidates almost entirely based on whether they are willing to be tolerant and friendly to "cryptocurrency".

4. In-depth analysis of the evolution between RGB → RGB++ → RGB++Layer What happened?
The RGB++ protocol recently completed the RGB++ Layer upgrade, which can extend bridgeless cross-chain and smart contracts to all UTXO chains such as BCH, BSV, and Dogecoin, and support other Layer 1 asset protocols such as Runes and BRC20. The first DEX UTXOSwap of RGB++ Layer was also launched on the mainnet at the same time. According to the plan, the subsequent ecology will continue to launch separate browsers, IBO and other platforms. Let’s talk about RGB++ and CKB, the dark horse of this bull market, and explore the relationship between RGB++ and RGB, as well as why RGB++ should be upgraded to RGB++ Layer. Click to read
5.Bankless: Overview of Solana's Liquid Staking
Staking, that is, locking up capital in exchange for network security and thus earning returns, is an important part of DeFi and one of the most powerful sectors in the on-chain economy. Staking requirements vary from chain to chain; Ethereum requires a native stake of 32 ETH on an individual node, or users can choose a liquid staking provider such as Lido or Rocket Pool. On Solana, anyone can stake natively through its delegated proof-of-stake system by delegating to a validator instead of running their own node.Click to read
