Updates πŸ“°

  • Everclear launched its $CLEAR Buyback Program, allocating 75% of protocol revenue to quarterly buybacks starting today. The initiative aims to enhance long-term value capture for token holders.

  • BOB and Xverse launched 1-click Bitcoin DeFi through Xverse Earn, enabling BTC holders to stake into uniBTC, solvBTC, and Hybrid BTC strategies in a single native transaction.

    • Powered by BOB Gateway, the integration simplifies DeFi access without bridges or chain hopping, offering multichain yield and points from protocols like Babylon and Solv.

    • DIA introduced Lumina, a next-gen oracle architecture built to be fully on-chain, verifiable, and permissionless. Powered by Lasernetβ€”a custom L2 using Arbitrum Orbit and AnyTrust DAβ€”Lumina enables ultra-fast, auditable oracle data with decentralized participation through Feeder Nodes and Aggregators.

      • Trustless, verifiable, fully on-chain: DIA Lumina is the end of black box oracles. Mainnet is here.

        • Today in DeFi is supported by DIA


Issues ⚠️

  • TornadoCashBot suggests the zkLend exploiter and the operator of the phishing site mimicking TornadoCash may be the same person. This theory stems from connections to the ENS address safe-relayer.eth, with linked wallet activity traceable via NFT transfer records.


Upcoming ⏳

  • Ondo Finance announced plans to bring stocks onchain through its upcoming Ondo Chain and Ondo Global Markets. Positioned at the intersection of TradFi and DeFi, Ondo aims to create infrastructure for seamless integration between traditional equities and crypto.

    • Optimism has launched an interop devnet and dev console for building and testing cross-chain apps.

  • Shardeum announced its mainnet launch is set for April 15, 2025. Touted as the first EVM-based autoscaling blockchain, the milestone marks a major step forward for the project and its community.
