Author: Crypto Ann; Compiler: Bai Ze Research Institute If you're not a cryptocurrency "full-timer", following the various subfields of cryptocurrency/DeFi on a day-to-day basis can be quite challenging. That's why I thought it would be a good idea to hype up the "narratives" (and the interesting protocols associated with them) of all crypto subfields. Real World Assets (RWA) While Bitcoin is trying to break into TradFi via ETFs, TradFi assets like bonds have infiltrated the DeFi world. Enthusiasts believe that RWA is a way to bring more institutional money to DeFi. We’ve seen a lot of talk about RWA recently, and market interest has translated into outperformance for RWA-related tokens like MakerDAO. In addition to MakerDAO, Synthetix...

Proving machine learning (ML) model inference via zkSNARKs promises to be one of the most important advances in smart contracts this decade. This development opens up an excitingly large design space, allowing applications and infrastructure to evolve into more complex and intelligent systems. By adding ML capabilities, smart contracts can become more autonomous and dynamic, allowing them to make decisions based on real-time on-chain data rather than static rules. Smart contracts will be flexible and can accommodate a variety of scenarios, including those that may not have been anticipated when the contract was originally created. In short, ML capabilities will amplify the automation, accuracy, efficiency, and flexibility of any smart contract we put on-chain. ML is widely used in most applications outside of web3, and its application in smart contracts is almost zero. This is mainly due to the high computational cost of running these models on-chain. For example, F...

zkML is a rich and growing ecosystem designed to extend the capabilities of blockchains and smart contracts, making them more flexible, adaptable and intelligent.

🚨 BREAKING: Italian radar engineer Filippo Biondi reveals stunning discovery on Jesse Michels podcast. Using satellite SAR tech, his team detected: • 8 man-made shafts beneath the Giza Pyramids • 2 underground structures over 1 km long • Chambers more than 600m deep 👉 Peer-reviewed data confirms these are engineered, not natural voids. After 4,500 years, the real pyramid complex may have been hidden underground all along.

Author: blocmates Compiled by: Luffy, Foresight News If you have been active in the cryptocurrency market recently, you won't have difficulty noticing a trend: the airdrop craze is gradually fading, initial coin offerings (ICOs) are making a strong comeback, while the market is shifting from a venture capital-led financing model to decentralized fundraising. ICO is not a new phenomenon; some of the most popular cryptocurrencies in the blockchain space (such as Ethereum and Augur) completed their initial offerings through ICOs. However, we must acknowledge that after experiencing a long "quiet period" from 2022 to 2024 (during which project financing was mostly completed through closed-door venture capital transactions), ICOs saw a strong resurgence in 2025. Why is the ICO making a comeback? One viewpoint that has gained renewed support for ICO-style fundraising is: since the first ICO boom from 2014 to 2018.
