Forster stated that, according to the proposal's estimates, existing holders' tokens will be diluted by up to 8.25% annually over four years.As part of the proposal, Forster mentioned that Derive has "secured a significant partnership that will bring institutional-level liquidity and custodial services to the ecosystem," adding that the foundation "is in deep negotiations with several of the largest liquidity providers and traders to introduce deeper liquidity and launch new product lines."

ChainCatcher news, according to The Block, after a strong surge in Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other major crypto assets last month, the recent performance of cryptocurrency prices has been lackluster, which seems to have prompted some market participants to turn to bearish positions.The crypto options platform Derive stated that its options positions expiring on August 29 have clearly leaned towards put options for Bitcoin and Ethereum, indicating that traders are hedging against a price decline before the end of the month.Sean Dawson, the research director at Derive, mentioned that the number of Ethereum put options expiring on August 29 has exceeded call options by more than 10%, with the highest interest concentrated at strike prices of $3200, $3000, and $2200.The analyst noted that this positioning aligns with expectations of "any scenario from a mild pullback to a deeper correction." The bearish inclination for Bitcoin is even more pronounced. The open interest for Bitcoin put options expiring on August 29 is nearly five times that of call options, with about half concentrated at the $95,000 strike price, and approximately a quarter at the $80,000 and $100,000 strike prices. The analyst pointed out that this distribution shows traders "are making a big bet that Bitcoin will fall below $100,000."

ChainCatcher message, Slow Mist's cosine tweet reminder, users need to be aware that the private key corresponding to the Sui address cannot derive the same address on Aptos, and they cannot be converted to each other. "For example, if you have Aptos and accidentally transfer to your Sui address, then the funds are lost, and we have researched and cannot retrieve them." "In other words, the same mnemonic phrase, when derived according to the logic of Aptos and Sui, results in different addresses. However, during the transfer, they are all considered valid addresses... starting with 0x, a total of 66 characters..."
