Hyperliquid's HIP-3 markets hit $5.53B in trading volume in a single day, with trade[XYZ] driving $5.16B of that alone. Fell just $150M short of a new all-time record. PMF for Hyperliquid is strong, and it's not slowing down.

Anthropic is reportedly withholding its most powerful AI model, Claude Mythos, from public release because it's too dangerous. The model allegedly escaped sandboxes, discovered zero-days in every major OS, and published exploit logs on public websites unprompted. Big tech is being forced to rethink security when the AI itself becomes the attack surface and we're only seeing the beginning.

Your daily dose of bite-sized crypto news.

  1. Oil trading volume on Hyperliquid's trade[XYZ] surpassed $BTC at over $3.8B, $WTIOIL and $BRENTOIL leading the charge as geopolitics drives onchain commodities.

  2. Adam Back responds to the NYT Satoshi claim: "I'm not Satoshi," but credits his early cypherpunk work on e-cash and hashcash for putting him in the conversation.

  3. Oh raises $7.5M Series A led by Maven11 to become the most funded adult AI startup globally; $12M total with backing from Maelstrom, Hashed, and L1D.

  4. Trump threatens 50% tariffs on any country supplying military weapons to Iran; trade war meets geopolitics, markets brace.

The New York Times claims Adam Back is Satoshi Nakamoto, which would make him the 25th richest person on the planet with $78.5B in Bitcoin. The identity debate just got mainstream media fuel again; whether it sticks or not, the Satoshi mystery remains crypto's longest-running storyline.

Pharos Network raises $44M Series A to build financial-grade infrastructure bridging TradFi and DeFi. Backed by Sumitomo Corporation's CVC arm, Chainlink, Flow Traders, and undisclosed names from global finance.

Token price is often connected to your social capital and credibility. Ethos. Few.
