Hyperliquid Revenue Slides Four Quarters Despite Record Open Interest

Hyperliquid, the decentralized derivatives platform, has seen its revenue decline for four consecutive quarters even as open interest reached an all-time high.

Controversial Bitcoin Fork BIP-110 Mines Two Blocks Before Stalling

A controversial Bitcoin fork known as BIP-110 managed to mine only two blocks before its activity came to a halt. The breakaway chain inherited Bitcoin's full mining difficulty despite having access to just a small fraction of the network's total hashpower.
