Illia Polosukhin, co-founder of NEAR, stated that recently the activity of developers within the ecosystem has increased and the development threshold has further lowered, focusing on what kind of applications to build and how to establish distribution channels.In this regard, he proposed a series of potential construction directions, covering AI electronic pets that combine NEAR AI on-chain verifiable reasoning with non-fungible tokens (NFTs), a universal checkout component that supports full-chain intent payments, a decentralized encyclopedia that combines prediction markets with AI-generated content, a privacy off-chain trading (OTC) market based on NEAR Intents and management of anti-liquidation lending and perpetual contracts, a cross-chain activity registration custody tool in the form of a staking deposit, privacy code review agents, enterprise equity structure management tools, Delta neutral strategy management, privacy tracking single transactions based on view keys, end-to-end encrypted medical auxiliary diagnostic systems, privacy voice transcription desktop applications, and AI benchmarking based on private test sets.Regarding product distribution, he suggested combining NEARLegion with community channels like X, achieving multi-chain wallet compatibility through Aurora Intent Connect to lower cross-chain thresholds, and actively expanding across communities and platforms like Product Hunt.

On-chain data analysis firm Bitquery linked the approximately $459,000 asset theft incident involving Tradewiz to a wallet that completed 27 transactions through the trading bot previously. Investigation statistics show that the incident affected 20,933 wallets, with losses involving SOL, tokens, and deposits recovered after closing token accounts; the valuation is based on a SOL price of $120.Bitquery discovered that major fund transfers began 41 minutes after Tradewiz's trading activity stopped; about 73% of the SOL in this round of transfers was moved afterward. Tradewiz stated that the incident involved the private key leak of the SOL PVP export function and promised to compensate users for their losses; subsequent updates indicated that the first batch of refunds had been issued, and claims need to be verified. Tradewiz also suspended EVM services for security checks and stated that the police are assisting in tracking the assets and have contacted exchanges for identity and account verification information.Bitquery traced some of the early funds coming from MEXC withdrawals, later shifting to Kucoin deposit addresses; these connections do not indicate that the two exchanges participated in the theft.

The Illinois Department of Revenue has released the legislative draft details of a 0.2% digital asset transaction tax, clarifying that stablecoins will be considered taxable digital assets, while non-fungible tokens are not subject to taxation. The draft stipulates that DeFi transactions are generally exempt; however, fees paid by users that are deemed "valuable consideration," such as protocol fees for operating or maintaining the platform, may trigger taxation.Only network fees and exchange fees paid to liquidity providers do not trigger this tax. Cross-chain bridging conducted through digital asset brokers and paid with consideration will be regarded as taxable exchange activities. If centralized exchanges charge fees when transferring to self-custody wallets, it may also be subject to taxation. This tax law was approved in June and is set to take effect on January 1, 2027. The Illinois Department of Revenue is seeking public comments on the draft, with a deadline of October 30.

According to Cointelegraph, the European Central Bank (ECB) has announced the launch of a new round of applications for the digital euro innovation platform, inviting fintech companies, payment institutions, and other organizations to explore AI agents participating in digital euro payments.The project will be divided into two parts: practical testing and future application seminars. The practical testing will take place from January to June 2027, where participants will develop prototypes for electronic receipts, multi-party transactions, conditional payments, and more.The seminars will explore AI payments, micropayments, machine-to-machine transactions, and the application of the digital euro in public services. In addition, the ECB has selected 36 banks and payment institutions, including Revolut, Stripe, and Deutsche Bank, to participate in another 12-month digital euro pilot, which is scheduled to launch in the second half of 2027. The final issuance of the digital euro still requires EU legislation and subsequent decisions from the ECB.

Co-founder and Chief Operating Officer of the cross-chain trading platform Relay, Jason Maier, stated that the team discovered an issue with the Relay API over the weekend, which exposed pending transaction information before trade execution. MEV seekers exploited the pending routing status to infer on-chain paths and front-run trades before order execution, resulting in worse execution prices for users trading through Relay.This activity occurred from September 12 to September 26, primarily concentrated from September 23 to 26. Seekers profited approximately $136,000 from this, affecting around 5,600 users, with a median impact of $11.88. Relay will pay a $50,000 bounty to Outputlayer for reporting the issue and will automatically compensate affected users without the need for applications; funds will be directly sent to wallets, with a total compensation amount of approximately $312,000.Jason Maier stated that MEV can arise through public mempool exposure, order detail inference, malicious participation in auctions, or data gaps between service providers, and protecting a single link in the transaction path is not sufficient. He mentioned that the team will continue to enhance the execution quality and privacy of the entire transaction path and called on security researchers to report vulnerabilities when discovered.

User gpugene stated during a discussion on computing power trading: Some B300 transaction prices have exceeded 24 dollars per GPU hour, and the price of computing power with a term shorter than 1 year remains above 7 dollars and is still rising. gpugene expressed the hope to use computing power derivatives to guard against the rise in GPU hour prices while retaining the flexibility to adjust rental durations; if inference clouds sell services at fixed prices and their own GPU bills fluctuate, they have effectively taken on the risk of computing power price changes.The article provides an example where a supplier can offer a plan for 2048 B300s, available for rent for 5 years at 4.15 dollars per GPU hour, corresponding to an amount of 372,264,960 dollars. If the client goes live after 12 months and uses this scale from the 13th to the 15th month, the total would be 4,485,120 GPU hours. gpugene calculated that the current premium for a call option with an exercise price of 4.50 dollars is approximately 4.83 million dollars; if changed to a compound option, the current payment would be about 2.70 million dollars, with an additional payment of about 4.49 million dollars upon exercising in the 12th month.gpugene also compared 4000 hypothetical 5-year rental and demand paths. The average cost of annual renewal is 4.72 dollars per hour, with the worst 5% scenario averaging 10.91 dollars; after adding the call option, these figures change to 4.88 dollars and 7.20 dollars, respectively, with the premium included. gpugene believes that the emerging computing power derivatives market may change how neocloud and related participants expand and protect themselves.

He believes it could be an important direction for Bitcoin's evolution according to Satoshi Nakamoto's original vision, while potentially diminishing the appeal of privacy projects like Zcash and Monero.
