Согласно отчету CoinDesk, обновление консенсуса Solana Alpenglow было завершено 24 и 25 сентября с переключением на Testnet и Devnet, и в настоящее время работает на двух основных публичных тестовых сетях, позволяя командам приложений тестировать совместимость перед запуском в основной сети. Alpenglow нацелен на снижение времени окончательного подтверждения с примерно 12,8 секунд до примерно 150 миллисекунд, позволяя валидаторам напрямую обмениваться голосами, а не записывать голоса как транзакции в блоки, что позволяет завершить консенсус за один-два раунда голосования.Фонд Solana напоминает, что после обновления статистика транзакций, содержащих голоса валидаторов, может снизиться, но объем платежей и транзакций для пользователей не обязательно уменьшится; приложения, которые просто отправляют транзакции и считывают баланс счета, не требуют миграции. 150 миллисекунд является целевым показателем для симуляции и еще не проверено в реальной среде основной сети, обработка кошельков и подтверждение пополнения на биржах все еще могут увеличить время ожидания. В настоящее время дата запуска в основной сети еще не объявлена.

According to community news, the Federal Reserve's June interest rate decision prediction event is online on the HIP-4 testnet. Previously, it was reported that Hyperliquid launched HIP-4 on the mainnet, with the first offering being a BTC daily settlement prediction market.

According to Cointelegraph, Tezos ecosystem developers have launched a prototype of a private blockchain payment testnet called TzEL, aimed at resisting future quantum computing attacks.This prototype uses post-quantum cryptography and zk-STARK proofs to protect transaction data and encrypted payment metadata, preventing "collect then decrypt" type attacks. TzEL leverages Tezos's data availability layer to handle the larger proof sizes brought by post-quantum cryptography (approximately 300 KB), which has been one of the main technical obstacles to building scalable quantum-resistant privacy systems on-chain. TzEL is currently running on the Tezos testnet and is still in the development stage, with the transition of the Tezos ecosystem to quantum-resistant cryptography still in its early stages.

AI native infrastructure and programmable IP blockchain Story announced the launch of the Confidential Data Rails (CDR) testnet, a universal secure data transmission architecture designed to enable the secure flow and compliant use of sensitive data in AI and general scenarios, under the premise that data is always encrypted and does not leave the domain.CDR supports end-to-end encryption, preset access permissions, and provides secure sharing capabilities for API keys and integration credentials. In addition, Story, as the infrastructure provider for the Seoul Exchange over the next two years, will provide ongoing technical and ecological support for the Korean RWA market.

Twin3 has proposed a digital identity soul infrastructure oriented towards the Agent economy, with the core idea being to give everyone a "digital body"—by binding human identity, personality, and experiences on-chain through a 256-dimensional Soulbound Token.Users can deploy personal AI agents based on this digital identity, joining the Agentic ecosystem to participate in automated economic collaboration, making human real experiences into verifiable and tradable RWA assets.

SimpleChain announced that its testnet officially launched yesterday, simultaneously initiating an early ecosystem airdrop plan. Users can earn points by participating in testnet tasks, and these points will serve as the core basis for future public chain token airdrops.It is reported that the core members of the SimpleChain team come from former executives of Shuqin Technology and Ant Group. ChainCatcher previously reported that SimpleChain has completed a $15 million seed round of financing, led by traditional family offices and industrial investment institutions.SimpleChain is a Layer 1 infrastructure public chain specifically designed for RWA, and the testnet phase will focus on validating its core capabilities, including Trusted Data Services (TDS), Compliance as a Service (CaaS), and the complete link of the asset issuance protocol DataIPO.

According to CoinDesk, Galaxy Digital (GLXY) recently experienced a cybersecurity incident where hackers gained unauthorized access to its isolated research and development workspace. The company stated that the affected environment was only used for research and development, completely isolated from core infrastructure, production systems, trading platforms, and customer accounts, with losses amounting to less than $10,000.Galaxy Digital stated that it quickly intervened, completed the lockdown and reinforcement of the compromised workspace, and deployed additional protective measures at the blockchain infrastructure level.

According to Bitcoin Magazine, Bitcoin developers are advancing a Bitcoin Improvement Proposal BIP360 "Pay to Merkle Root (P2MR)" aimed at enhancing Bitcoin's resistance to quantum threats, with a related testnet already deployed.Screenshots show that the corresponding code was submitted and verified on February 11, reflecting the community's proactive technical preparations for potential quantum computing threats.

Hyperliquid announced that HIP-4 has officially launched on the testnet. The first result-based market to go live is the periodic binary options based on HyperCore's marked prices. Users can view the relevant markets in the "Predict" section of the testnet interface. The result contracts are fully collateralized, settled within a fixed price range, feature non-linear returns and expiration time characteristics, and do not involve leverage or liquidation mechanisms.Hyperliquid also stated that it plans to launch a one-day expiration binary market for BTC and HYPE in the future. The protocol is designed to support multi-result markets, but this feature has not yet been included in the first release plan.Hyperliquid previously disclosed that in the next network upgrade, the portfolio margin will transition from the pre-alpha phase to the alpha phase, expanding the applicable scope from test accounts to portfolios under approximately $500,000. A main account must have a weighted trading volume exceeding $5 million to enable portfolio margin and set supply and borrowing limits for each asset: 1. The overall supply limit for USDH is 500 million tokens, with an overall borrowing limit of 100 million tokens; 2. The single-user supply limit for USDH is 5 million tokens, and the single-user borrowing limit is 1 million tokens.

Stablecoin issuer Circle has announced the launch of the Circle Nanopayments testnet, a payment infrastructure that supports transfers of as low as $0.000001 USDC and enables gas-free transactions for single payments, aiming to provide a foundational payment layer for the "Agent Economy."According to the introduction, Nanopayments is built on the Circle Gateway and aggregates off-chain transactions with delayed batch on-chain settlements, packaging thousands of micropayments into a single on-chain settlement to avoid gas costs for each transaction. Developers can leverage this to implement pay-per-call, pay-per-use, and machine-to-machine payment scenarios. Technically, when a user or agent initiates a payment, they sign an EIP-3009 authorization message, and the system verifies the signature to instantly update the internal ledger and confirm the payment, while the actual on-chain settlement is completed periodically in the background.Circle stated that this solution has been validated in collaboration with open-source robot developer OpenMind, for example, an autonomous robotic dog can automatically pay charging fees using USDC through Nanopayments. Currently, Nanopayments is available on multiple testnet chains, including Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, Avalanche, Base, and Polygon test environments.

Stablecoin issuer Circle announced that its micropayment service "Nanopayments" is now live on the testnet, supporting ultra-micropayments of USDC as low as $0.000001, with zero gas fees and AI agent support.

According to official news, Hyperliquid announced that the cross-margin feature for the HIP-3 permissionless perpetual contract market has been enabled on the testnet, but it is not yet available on the mainnet. However, this feature qualifies for the mainnet-level bug bounty program.The deployer of HIP-3 must first enable cross-margin for a specific asset before users can trade that asset using cross-margin. Under a unified account, all cross-margin perpetual contracts using the same collateral asset can share margin, even across multiple DEXs. However, assets from different DEXs will be protected up to their maintenance margin level to avoid automatic liquidation due to significant price fluctuations on other DEXs.This new "protective cross-margin" system ensures the solvency of the system while not affecting user experience. Cross-margin is not designed for DEX abstract interfaces, and related interfaces should not allow cross-margin trading through DEX abstraction. Users should use a unified account or combined margin to achieve the expected behavior of cross-margin for HIP-3 assets.

The game blockchain Ronin announced that the Saigon testnet has completed its migration to Ethereum, and the mainnet migration to Ethereum L2 is proceeding as planned, expected to be completed between the first and second quarters of 2026.
