In the field of blockchain investment, the profitability of PoW (Proof of Work) and PoS (Proof of Stake) blockchains has always been a topic of significant interest. Crypto influencer Donovan has written an article exploring the profitability models of these blockchains, particularly focusing on the differences between Ethereum and Solana, and analyzing whether blockchain profitability should be a key concern for investors.

This article explains the COG strategy, including its definition, how it works, implementation methods, pros and cons, and practical examples to help readers understand and use this strategy effectively.

Built on the LayerZero protocol, Stargate Finance enables interaction between different blockchains. With Stargate, you can swap USDT on Ethereum for USDC on Arbitrum in a single transaction, and it supports many other chains. Users can earn STG tokens by providing liquidity and participating in platform governance, or stake STG tokens for governance involvement. Leveraging LayerZero technology and Delta algorithms, Stargate Finance ensures efficient, secure cross-chain asset transfers and liquidity management. Its unified liquidity pool and instant transaction confirmation greatly enhance user experience and blockchain interoperability.

The decentralized sorter is a complete reshaping of the L2 economic system. It's like a baton, directly determining which developers and DApps are attracted to the application layer, and indirectly influencing the direction and foundation of the entire L2 ecosystem.

Paradigm's research director Dan Robinson and research partner Dave White propose imposing taxes on Miner Extractable Value (MEV). They suggest capturing MEV by levying fees based on transaction priority fees through smart contracts. The article discusses the limitations of MEV taxes and potential solutions, including incentive incompatibility, the complete block problem, recovered transactions, and user intent leakage.

In cryptocurrency and financial markets, technical analysis tools are essential for making informed investment decisions. This article explores the Keltner Channel indicator, explaining its application principles, pros and cons, and comparing it with other technical indicators to help readers better understand and use this tool effectively.

This article provides an in-depth analysis of two potential vulnerabilities in Zero-Knowledge Proof (ZKP) systems: the "Load8 Data Injection Attack" and the "Forgery Return Attack." The article details the technical specifics of these vulnerabilities, how they can be exploited, and the methods for fixing them. Additionally, it discusses the lessons learned from discovering these vulnerabilities during the auditing and formal verification processes of ZK systems and suggests best practices for ensuring the security of ZK systems.

This article delves into two potential vulnerabilities in zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) systems: "Load8 Data Injection Attack" and "Fake Return Attack." It describes these vulnerabilities in detail, how they can be exploited, and methods for fixing them. It also discusses lessons learned from discovering these vulnerabilities during the auditing and formal verification processes of ZK systems, along with proposing best practices to ensure ZK system security.

FHE (Fully Homomorphic Encryption) allows third parties to perform unlimited calculations and operations on encrypted data without decryption, thus achieving combinable on-chain privacy calculations. ArkStream Capital has written an article introducing the concept, application scenarios, and ecosystem of FHE, as well as the FHE-Rollup type Layer2 solution that Fhenix is building.

This article, written by Vitalik Buterin, explores the similarities and challenges of Ethereum Layer 2 (L2) and execution sharding in blockchain scaling. The article explains that the L2 ecosystem is actually sharding on a technical level, and discusses the diversity of execution environments, security trade-offs, transaction speed, and the organizational and cultural benefits of L2. At the same time, Vitalik highlighted the coordination challenges faced by the L2 ecosystem and raised the importance of cross-L2 infrastructure.

Optimism is a Layer 2 solution based on Ethereum that provides fast, stable, scalable and low-cost blockchain services. By running on Layer 1 of the Ethereum main chain, it helps alleviate network congestion, thereby reducing Transaction costs and processing time. Hyperchain is a multi-chain network structure based on Layer 2 technology that solves the horizontal scalability challenges of traditional blockchains. By treating each chain as an interchangeable computing resource, the commercialization of blockchains allows Developers to build cross-chain applications without increasing systemic risks, sharing not only security and communication layers but also an open-source technology stack. This design allows developers to focus more on building applications on the entire super chain, without having to worry about the specific technical details of individual chains.

This article provides a comprehensive analysis and in-depth technical discussion. It not only explains how constraint mechanisms work but also explores the innovative applications they might bring and their long-term impact on the Bitcoin network and the broader blockchain ecosystem. Additionally, the article discusses the challenges faced in implementing these technologies and the considerations of the community, offering readers a holistic view to understand the ongoing technical innovations and discussions within the Bitcoin network.

Zero-knowledge proofs have the potential to create a more private and scalable blockchain ecosystem. However, many aspects of zero-knowledge are misunderstood or differ from commonly perceived implementations. This article analyzes ZKPs from two main perspectives: zero-knowledge and succinctness. When ZKPs and ZK rollups eventually mature technologically, they will certainly offer better solutions to address the blockchain trilemma.

This article introduces optimization ideas for BTC withdrawal bridges and the OP-DLC bridge proposed by Bitlayer to address the deficiencies of BitVM bridges. This technology allows for lightweight smart contract functionality on the Bitcoin chain, reducing reliance on central authorities and increasing the decentralization and trustlessness of transactions.

The transformation into a social re-staking modular L2 is not only a technological leap for Cyber but also a profound exploration and forward-looking layout for the future of social networks. The article explains how Cyber operates and its features, providing a truly decentralized environment. This allows users to expand their influence more fairly and directly, and build closer connections with their fans.
