Among them, MELON, DOGE, 69420 and other currencies have shown significant gains recently due to their association with Musk, with increases of 92.8%, 52.7%, and 35.4% respectively over the past week.
**Wallet(Wallets) —— Over the past 7 days, the increase is approximately 15.5%, with a circulating market capitalization of about 1.8 billion dollars.

Restaking - The recent 7-day increase is about 15.0%, with a circulating market capitalization of approximately $11.5 billion. The stake mechanism maximizes the value of the already staked Token, providing users with a wider range of participation, while also bringing additional income. The additional income from staking has attracted a large number of users to participate, driving the prices of related Tokens such as EGP, PUFFER, PENDLE, etc., to pump, with increases of 12.5%, 9.2%, and 8.3% respectively in the past week.

VISTA - The recent 7-day increase is approximately 385.6%, with a circulating market capitalization of 34.32 million US dollars. VISTA is the first value compound interestDeflationToken launched by Ethervista, as the native currency of EthervistaDEX, marking a new standard for Decentralizationexchange, specifically designed for Ethereum and its layer 2 networks.

Virtual Protocol is a Decentralization protocol, focusing on creating collectively owned, human-curated plug-and-play game artificial intelligence (AI) agents.

Focusing on this week
Hotspot Review
The Hong Kong Monetary Authority collaborates with the Central Bank of Brazil and the Central Bank of Thailand on a cross-border tokenization project. The Hong Kong Monetary Authority is actively promoting cross-border tokenization through cooperation with the Central Bank of Brazil and Thailand. By connecting their respective Central Bank Digital Money experimental platforms, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority is exploring the application of Digital Money in cross-border Payment versus Payment (PvP) settlement and Delivery versus Payment (DvP) settlement to achieve efficient and secure cross-border payments in areas such as trade financing and carbon credits.
The series of measures taken by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority indicate that mainstream Financial Institutions are increasingly recognizing digital assets, which helps to dispel some investors' doubts about encryption assets. This is not only beneficial for the transformation and upgrading of the Hong Kong financial center, but also injects new vitality into the global digital asset market. This cooperation will accelerate the research and application of Central Bank CBDCs in various countries, which may have far-reaching implications for the legal currency system; successful cases of cross-border payments will expand the application scenarios of digital assets, and the efficiency and cost of cross-border payments are expected to drop significantly, posing new competitive pressures on traditional Financial Institutions. The participation of Central Banks will promote the Compliance development of digital assets and establish a clearer regulatory framework for the industry.
The New York Stock Exchange has submitted 8.800-E rule changes and the application for listing the GrayScale Digital Large Cap Fund to the U.S. SEC Recently, NYSE Arca, a subsidiary of the New York Stock Exchange, submitted an 8.800-E rule change application to the SEC, planning to support the listing of commodity and digital asset investment products, including Grayscale's Digital Large Cap Fund. If approved, the fund will become a new type of Cryptocurrency ETF, mainly holding BTC and Ethereum, supplemented by SOL, XRP, and AVAX, marking the gradual entry of encryption assets into the mainstream financial market.
Once the new rule 8.800-E is approved and applied to the ETF conversion of Grayscale's large-cap fund, it may open up channels for other multi-asset encryption products. This development can not only increase market liquidity, but also enhance the market acceptance and stability of different encryption assets. For investors, this move may provide more diversified portfolio options to meet their allocation needs. The future approval results will have a profound impact on the overall encryption market, especially the liquidity of small-scale encryption assets.
Base Mainnet introduces fault proofing to achieve permissionless verification. On October 30, Base officially announced the launch of Fault Proofs on Mainnet. This feature allows any user to verify the Base status, make permissionless proposals, and challenge false claims. Users have 3.5 days to challenge using the Open Source challenge software, and the successful winner will receive a deposit for the invalid declaration. This feature is designed to reduce reliance on centralized entities and improve network security. Next, Base will expand the Smart Contract review community to form a "Safety Committee" for Decentralization to achieve Phase 1 Decentralization. A variety of proof-of-fault implementations will also be supported in the future to enhance network compatibility. 【15】
The fault proofing function launched by the Base project has improved transparency and security, promoting Decentralization, and reducing reliance on centralized entities. The function enhances network security by incentivizing users to disclose false statements, effectively identifying and punishing malicious behavior. In addition, the reward mechanism encourages community participation in governance and maintaining network integrity. The Open Source challenge tool enables technical users to easily participate in verification, setting a new benchmark for the industry.
