Solana protocol Byreal officially open-sources byreal-cli, an on-chain interaction tool designed for AI Agents.

The Solana protocol Byreal officially open-sources byreal-cli, an on-chain interaction tool designed for AI Agents.It supports core functions such as liquidity pool queries and risk analysis, Token Swap, CLMM position switching and Claim, one-click copying of popular liquidity positions, covering the complete DeFi lifecycle.This tool is compatible with over 40 AI Agent frameworks including Claude Code, Cursor, and OpenClaw, and can be used with one-click installation.

Bitwise announced on the X platform that, as part of its annual commitment to support Bitcoin open-source developers, Bitwise has donated $233,000 to Bitcoin open-source developers.This year, Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (BITB) has seen significant growth, and this donation marks the second annual contribution of the 10% gross profit plan promised at the launch of BITB. The funds will be distributed by three nonprofit organizations: Brink, OpenSats, and the HRF Bitcoin Development Fund.

The first on-chain DEX incubated by Bybit, Byreal, founder emilyrealfreeman stated on social media that the Byreal Command Line Interface (CLI) has been open-sourced, marking its first protocol interface designed for AI agents.Unlike ordinary API wrappers or chatbot interfaces, Byreal CLI redefines the interaction between protocols and machines from an architectural level, providing deterministic execution, intent-constrained driven operations, and an Agent functionality focused on understanding users, making the system inherently safer and more reliable. Byreal CLI offers AI Agents a complete set of three primitives: identity, wallet (asset control), and a permissionless execution environment, which can only be supported simultaneously by cryptographic technology.Agents can freely discover, execute, and learn through a single command, including one-time liquidity pool analysis (APR estimation, risk scoring, LP range suggestions), with documentation and interfaces designed for AI execution. The new feature Copy Farmer allows Agents to automatically replicate top liquidity provision strategies. Byreal believes that within approximately two years, DeFi trading volume will flow more through AI Agents rather than front-end interfaces, and projects that optimize protocols for Agents in advance will win the routing layer, while those that do not keep up may become forgotten backend systems.

Monad announced on the X platform that the Monad Foundation has acquired the open-source blockchain data indexing framework Ponder, with the specific acquisition amount not disclosed.The entire Ponder team will join the Monad Foundation and contribute to the protocol layer, open-source tools, and standards, while also providing support for applications leveraging Monad's performance and decentralized features.

According to CoinDesk, stablecoin issuer Tether has announced the launch of its open-source Bitcoin mining operating system, MiningOS. The system is designed to simplify mining infrastructure management and reduce reliance on proprietary vendor software.Tether describes MiningOS as a modular and scalable operating system suitable for a range of operations from home miners to large institutions. It employs a self-hosted architecture that allows miners to manage their mining activities without relying on centralized services, communicating with devices through an integrated peer-to-peer network. The system is built on the Holepunch peer-to-peer protocol and is released under the Apache 2 license, aiming to maintain its open-source nature without third-party dependencies.

Tether posted on the X platform that it has launched an open-source operating system, Mining OS (MOS), for real mining infrastructure. This system features modularity and scalability, designed specifically for energy, hardware, and data processing.Currently, the documentation related to MOS is open, and a Discord community has been established for developers to communicate.

Vitalik posted on the X platform stating the need to confirm the signer addresses of multi-signature wallets. He obtained the required information by looking up the addresses on Etherscan and using the "Read Contract" feature. If the wallet or application remains open source and can pass a "security test" (walkaway test), users will have a better experience.In common scenarios where direct use on the Safe official website is not possible, providing alternative solutions can be helpful for users. Due to privacy protection needs, such workflows may ultimately change—an equivalent privacy-friendly solution is for users to save a "view key" that contains additional private information. The block explorer can support this feature by placing the private information in the tag section of the URL, allowing it to remain in the application client. However, considering the risks of users pasting keys in URLs or web pages, more operations will still need to be completed directly through the wallet.

Vitalik Buterin posted that this morning he needed to check the signers of his multi-signature address. Without the Safe app installed on his phone, he found that he could directly obtain the necessary information by looking up his address on Etherscan and using the "Read Contract" feature. Vitalik pointed out that open-source applications or wallets often provide additional user experience advantages that can help in unexpected situations, surpassing the capabilities of traditional websites.He further mentioned that, for privacy reasons, this workflow may ultimately be restricted. One way to achieve an equivalent and privacy-focused workflow is for users to save a "view key," which is an extended version of the user's address containing additional privacy information. Block explorers could support this method by placing the privacy information in the hash tag portion of the URL, keeping it client-side. However, the downside of this approach is that it encourages users to paste any type of secret information into URLs or web pages, which poses risks; ultimately, there still needs to be the ability to perform more actions directly through the wallet.

According to a report by The Paper, it has recently been reported that Tencent has officially sent a complaint letter to GitHub (the world's largest code hosting and collaboration platform), requesting the removal of a batch of open-source projects that "allow users to export or analyze their WeChat chat records." Among them, some project leaders who are more concerned have publicly stated that, under legal pressure, the projects have been forced to cease maintenance.In response, Tencent stated that some open-source projects that read WeChat chat records have cracked the local database keys through reverse engineering of the WeChat client, bypassing the encryption measures of the WeChat client, which threatens the data privacy and client security of users and third parties, and can easily be exploited by black and gray industries.

The DEX Terminal Finance incubated by Ethena announced on social media that the initial design goal of Terminal was to become the liquidity hub on the Converge chain. However, due to the Converge chain mainnet failing to launch as scheduled and no recent plans for a launch, the project will be terminated. User funds are not affected, and all users' principal can be fully withdrawn. Existing Pendle position holders will continue to receive their entitled Ethena Sats earnings, associated sUSDe earnings, and etherfi points.The official statement indicated that the team explored various transformation options, but all faced fundamental obstacles, including limited ecological support, insufficient asset access potential, and bleak long-term development prospects. Ultimately, the team concluded that these paths could not lead to a successful long-term project, and launching for the sake of launching contradicts their core principles; maintaining integrity is the primary guideline.

The founder of Slow Fog, Yu Xian, tweeted, "Friends using the open-source automated trading system NoFx should pay attention.

For the recent false accusations of "OKX Wallet having a backdoor," OKX CEO Star posted on the X platform, stating, "The private key module of OKX Wallet and all related smart contracts have been fully open-sourced. Many companies in the industry (including competitors) are using our open-source code, which is our long-term commitment to promoting transparency and security in the industry. As for the non-private key modules, the source code will not be open-sourced for now, as these parts belong to commercial software. Users can freely choose whether to use OKX Wallet based on their own needs and preferences."He further pointed out that OKX Wallet is also one of the earliest providers of MPC non-custodial wallet services in the industry. Due to limitations in market acceptance, user experience, and DApp support in the early versions of the MPC product, we have decided to fully discontinue the old version of the MPC wallet and launch a more advanced and user-friendly new generation of non-custodial wallet ------ CeDeFi Wallet. We welcome everyone to experience it and provide us with feedback.
