The fund is structured as a trust.

Invesco QQQ Trust offers investors targeted exposure to the NASDAQ-100 Index. The fund’s strategy uses periodic rebalancing to closely mirror index composition and weights.

Foolish takeDKM Wealth Management opened a new position in Invesco’s popular QQQ Trust in Q3 2025, to the tune of $4.8 million and over 7,900 shares. Because QQQ tracks the NASDAQ-100, it gives DKM Wealth Management and other investors a more balanced exposure to tech stocks without nearly as much risk as would be present in investing in individual technology companies.

This has pros and cons, since any individual tech holding can suddenly become a hot commodity and its value balloon dramatically in the current market environment. However, by selecting a basket of tech giants, investors can largely avoid the dramatic ups and downs involved with this sector, and are protected from the more serious losses that can also be present here.

QQQ is an ETF that’s frequently and sometimes aggressively traded, more preferred by active traders than its very similar cousin, QQQM.  QQQ also has higher liquidity, which may be preferred by DKM if the fund feels that this is a shorter term investment, rather than a permanent portfolio balancing move. It can certainly be held long term like QQQM typically is, but it has a higher expense ratio and a higher per share price. Don’t expect this to be a long-term move.

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP Securities Litigation Partner James (Josh) Wilson Encourages Investors Who Suffered Losses In Jasper To Contact Him Directly To Discuss Their Options

If you purchased or acquired securities in Jasper between November 30, 2023 and July 3, 2025 and would like to discuss your legal rights, call Faruqi & Faruqi partner Josh Wilson directly at 877-247-4292 or 212-983-9330 (Ext. 1310).

, /PRNewswire/ -- Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential claims against Jasper Therapeutics, Inc. ("Jasper" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: JSPR) and reminds investors of the November 18, 2025 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action that has been filed against the Company.

James (Josh) Wilson, Faruqi & Faruqi Senior Partner (PRNewsfoto/Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP)

Faruqi & Faruqi is a leading national securities law firm with offices in New York, Pennsylvania, California and Georgia. The firm has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors since its founding in 1995. See www.faruqilaw.com.

As detailed below, the complaint alleges that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and/or misleading statements and/or failing to disclose that: (i) Jasper lacked the controls and procedures necessary to ensure that the third-party manufacturers on which it relied were manufacturing products in full accordance with cGMP regulations and otherwise suitable for use in clinical trials; (ii) the foregoing failure increased the risk that results of ongoing studies would be confounded, thereby negatively impacting the regulatory and commercial prospects of the Company's products, including briquilimab; (iii) the foregoing increased the likelihood of disruptive cost-reduction measures; (iv) accordingly, the Company's business and/or financial prospects, as well as briquilimab's clinical and/or commercial prospects, were overstated; and (v) as a result, Defendants' public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

On July 7, 2025, Jasper issued a press release reporting updated data from the BEACON Study. The press release stated that "[r]esults from the 240mg Q8W and the 240mg followed by 180mg Q8W dose cohorts appear to be confounded by an issue with one drug product lot used in those cohorts, with 10 of the 13 patients dosed with drug from the lot in question," that "[t]he Company is investigating the drug product lot in question and expects to have the results of that investigation in the coming weeks," and that Jasper was "taking steps to ensure that drug product from the lot in question is returned to the Company and that sites have drug product from other lots to continue dosing." Further, the press release revealed that the Company "has also determined that the drug product lot in question was used to treat participants enrolled in the ETESIAN [Study]. As a result, and in order to focus resources on advancing briquilimab in CSU, the Company is halting the study and pausing development in asthma." Finally, the press release stated that "the Company is halting development in SCID" and, contrary to its prior representation of having a strong balance sheet and a cash runway extending "through the third quarter of 2025," that Jasper "will be implementing a number of other cost cutting measures including a potential restructuring, to extend runway and reduce expenses."

On this news, Jasper's stock price fell $3.73 per share, or 55.1%, to close at $3.04 per share on July 7, 2025.

The court-appointed lead plaintiff is the investor with the largest financial interest in the relief sought by the class who is adequate and typical of class members who directs and oversees the litigation on behalf of the putative class. Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision to serve as a lead plaintiff or not. 

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP also encourages anyone with information regarding Jasper's conduct to contact the firm, including whistleblowers, former employees, shareholders and others.

Apple is reportedly reorganizing some of its divisions as the retirement of former Chief Operating Officer Jeff Williams nears.

The company will move its health and fitness divisions and place them under the oversight of its services chief, Eddy Cue, Bloomberg reported Friday (Oct. 10), citing unnamed sources.

In addition, the Apple Watch operating system will now be overseen by the company’s head of software engineering, Craig Federighi, according to the report.

Apple did not immediately reply to PYMNTS’ request for comment.

According to the Bloomberg report, both Cue and Federighi have decades of experience at the company, helped launch some of its biggest products and have been gaining influence.

The report added that Apple wanted to combine its health and fitness divisions’ efforts and that it plans to launch a new subscription service called Health+. The Health+ service will provide users with personalized recommendations on nutrition, exercise and sleep with the help of an artificial intelligence-powered assistant, per the report.

Apple announced in July that Williams would retire later this year to spend more time with friends and family.

The company said at the time that Williams would transition his role as COO later that month to Apple Senior Vice President of Operations Sabih Kahn. It said he would continue reporting to Apple CEO Tim Cook and overseeing the company’s design team, Apple Watch, and health initiatives, and then would retire later in the year.

Cook said in the July press release that Williams had “helped to create one of the most respected global supply chains in the world; launched the Apple Watch and overseen its development; architected Apple’s health strategy; and led our world-class team of designers with great wisdom, heart and dedication.”

Bloomberg reported in March that Apple was working on an AI agent that can dispense health advice and that the project marked the company’s latest and perhaps strongest push into the health field.

During Apple’s third quarter earnings report in July, the company said the revenues of its wearables, home and accessories category, which includes Apple Watch, fell 9% to $7.4 billion. Services revenue was up 13% to $27.4 billion.

Too many questionable start-ups went public during the pandemic, when the sector was hot. Now, after over four years of pain, the weak have failed, rates are falling, and M&A looks to be on the upswing.

Los Angeles, CA, Oct. 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NY Artisinal, a New York–based independent research and investigative analysis firm, today announced the initiation of formal coverage of LuxUrban Hotels Inc., with a comprehensive review underway into the company’s financial disclosures, contractual practices, and pending litigation.

This investigation is part of NY Artisinal’s Ongoing Corporate Transparency Program, which focuses on identifying discrepancies and risk signals in high-growth sectors where public perception and financial reality may diverge.

LuxUrban Paid Its Workers in Full — Even as NYC Withheld $8 Million. Now Bankruptcy Could Be Its Comeback, Not Its Collapse.

LuxUrban Hotels wasn’t supposed to fail.

The fast-scaling hospitality startup had engineered one of the industry's most compelling business models: taking over underutilized hotels, turning them into short-term rentals, and doing it all without owning a single building.

Investors bought in — hard. At its peak, LuxUrban was valued at nearly $300 million, with an enterprise value above $500 million. It was lean, profitable, and fast-moving.

Then New York City stepped in.

Amid the city’s migrant housing crisis, LuxUrban became one of several companies contracted to provide emergency accommodations. But as the crisis deepened, the city fell behind — eventually withholding over $8 million in reimbursements.

Rather than lay off staff or stall operations, LuxUrban kept paying workers 115% of their wages, hoping payments would come through.

They never did. Bank accounts were frozen. Contracts evaporated. And now, the company once hailed as a next-gen hospitality unicorn is filing for Chapter 11 — not to die, but to survive.

When innovation met the wrong system

LuxUrban’s management thought they were helping.
At the height of the crisis, the company converted a Midtown property — the now-notorious Hotel 46 — into temporary housing for asylum seekers under contracts administered by the Hotel Association of New York City (HANYC) and the Department of Homeless Services (DHS).

It should have been a win-win: a fast, flexible example of public–private partnership in action.
Instead, it triggered a financial freefall.

According to legal filings reviewed by Business Insider, LuxUrban is owed more than $8 million, plus damages, from HANYC and DHS for reimbursements that never came. Those missing funds covered everything from payroll to food and security — costs the company paid directly out of its own reserves for nearly two years with no money in return.

At Hotel 46 alone, LuxUrban spent over $1.5 million on wages and essential operations. Across its portfolio, it absorbed another $5 million in union overages, bond drawdowns, and penalties that compounded when City reimbursements failed to arrive.

_____

The city payments that never came — and the 115% penalties that did

When reimbursements stalled, LuxUrban kept paying its workers anyway. Under strict union and Independent Workers Agreement (IWA) rules, even a payroll delay of a few hours triggered fines of up to 115% of wages.

That meant workers didn’t just get paid — they got paid extra, with an estimated $5 million in penalties flowing directly into their pockets across hotels that reported temporary wage delays.

LuxUrban covered every dollar of those payments out of pocket while waiting for City reimbursements that never came.

“The workers got every penny — and then some,” said a labor expert and legal counsel for large companies operating under collective bargaining agreements familiar with the program. “LuxUrban kept everyone employed and overpaid per contract while the City sat on the bill. The system punished performance.”

_____

From Chapter 11 to second chances

LuxUrban’s 2025 Chapter 11 filing drew harsh headlines and little sympathy.
But bankruptcy isn’t always failure. In this case, it may be the reset that exposes how bureaucracy, financial pressure, and opportunistic counterparties — not poor management — brought the company down.

A motion under 11 U.S.C. § 1104(a) seeks to appoint an independent Chapter 11 trustee to consolidate the estate and pursue claims that could total tens of millions of dollars.

If approved, that trustee would oversee litigation and recovery efforts involving:
    •    HANYC and DHS — the $8 million-plus in unpaid reimbursements.
    •    Tuscany Legacy Leasing & St. Giles Hotels — alleged to have granted a long-term lease it didn’t hold and later used that lease to trigger a Confession of Judgment that froze LuxUrban’s online-travel-agency and credit-card receivables, effectively choking off cash flow.
    •    Wyndham Hotels & Resorts — damages tied to a terminated brand partnership.
    •    Cloudbeds Inc. — questions surrounding financing fees and the recognition of liens and payment priorities that are now being reviewed by legal counsel.
    •    Expedia Group, Tuscany Legacy Leasing, and certain merchant-cash-advance lenders — cited in filings as having imposed restrictions on OTA and receivable transfers that, according to restructuring experts, further tightened liquidity and are being examined for whether they had contractual or legal authority to do so.
    •    Media entities, particularly Bisnow — whose reporting is now the subject of a formal legal review by retained counsel evaluating whether certain Bisnow articles were coordinated with short sellers to influence perception and trading activity.

Legal experts retained to evaluate these matters confirm that evidence is being reviewed for potential irregularities or improper coordination among counterparties or media coverage.

“On the surface — and from the beginning — there appear to be patterns that warrant deeper review,” said one attorney familiar with the investigation. “The trustee’s appointment would make it possible to test those facts in court.”

“The chapter is literally not over,” added a restructuring advisor. “A trustee could bring accountability and a real shot at restitution.”

_____

The Tuscany twist: where it all went wrong

At the center of LuxUrban’s collapse lies the Tuscany lease — a master agreement allegedly sold to LuxUrban by Tuscany Legacy Leasing, an entity linked to St. Giles Hotels.

Court filings suggest Tuscany granted a long-term lease it had no authority to convey, then later used that same lease to justify a Confession of Judgment that froze millions in LuxUrban accounts.
That single maneuver — executed through a loophole in New York’s civil procedure — is widely viewed as the moment the company’s liquidity evaporated.

“The trustee will almost certainly go after that lease,” said a restructuring expert following the case. “If it’s proven fraudulent, it could unlock a large share of the company’s lost value.”

_____

A company that paid everyone — except itself

For workers, vendors, and guests, LuxUrban delivered. Payrolls were met, hotels stayed open, and employees made 115% of their contracted wages.
Behind the scenes, the company’s accounts bled dry under the weight of bureaucracy and unpaid obligations.

“This isn’t incompetence,” said a bankruptcy attorney involved in the case. “It’s what happens when a company performs too well in a system that rewards inefficiency.”

_____

A comeback on the horizon?

Despite the setbacks, optimism is returning.
Sources close to the process say LuxUrban could reopen two to three hotels in the coming weeks as part of a structured restart under new oversight.

If the trustee is appointed, recovery actions — from the unpaid City contracts to the disputed Tuscany lease — could turn LuxUrban’s narrative from collapse to comeback.

For now, its story stands as both a warning and a revelation: sometimes in New York, doing the right thing costs more than failing ever could.

Changpeng Zhao (CZ) detailed the accidental rise of Chinese memecoins on BNB Chain and explained why Aster’s hidden orders provide a structural advantage over Hyperliquid.

During his Oct. 10 interview with CounterParty TV, the former Binance CEO attributed BNB’s recent meme explosion to an unplanned Mid-Autumn Festival post and outlined his investment thesis, favoring privacy-focused perpetual DEXs over transparent alternatives.

BNB Chain’s Chinese ticker surge started when Zhao posted “Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, post your best memes” during the traditional holiday.

The community responded with moon-themed content and Chinese-language tickers, including Zhao Chang’e, a wordplay on Zhao’s name that referenced a female deity from Chinese mythology.

He stated:

“It wasn’t planned. It just slowly evolved into that. Everything I tweet, they turn into a meme. At some point I said, screw that. I’m just going to tweet freely.”

Five BNB Chain memes have reached market capitalizations of $100 million to $500 million in recent weeks, attracting Solana traders. Zhao characterized BNB traders as more holder-focused due to the chain’s utility background, contrasting with Solana’s faster-paced meme culture.

Zhao said:

“They tend to be more holders. They don’t go up and down the next day.”

BNB vs Solana: open vs exclusiveZhao pushed back on the perception that BNB operates as a closed vertical from launch pad to Binance listing, arguing that the ecosystem remains more open than Solana’s infrastructure.

He said:

“Binance lists tokens from every blockchain, even meme coins from every blockchain. Trust Wallet supports BNB Chain, Solana, and many other blockchains. Phantom doesn’t support BNB Chain. Radium only operates on Solana. Their ecosystems are actually much more exclusive than ours.”

Zhao explained that Solana’s meme focus partly resulted from SEC lawsuits targeting utility tokens during the former President Joe Biden administration.

Projects launching tokens with real use cases faced securities violations, pushing builders toward meme coins that claim no utility:

“If you launch a real project with a utility token, you’re going to get a lawsuit from SEC. Meme coins, we just declared there’s no value, there’s no utilities, just for fun.”

Aster’s privacy edge over HyperliquidZhao’s Aster investment stems from 20 years of trading experience, showing that professional traders require order privacy. He argued that Hyperliquid’s transparent on-chain order book creates a fatal flaw that Wall Street participants cannot accept.

According to Binance’s former CEO:

“Every single trader on Wall Street I talked to do not want other people to see their orders in real time. “If you know exactly how another person is going to trade, there’s always one way to trade against them for them to lose money.”

Zhao posted about the privacy issue in June, triggering 30 project pitches that day. Aster implemented hidden orders, prompting Binance Labs to invest alongside other privacy DEX projects.

The absence of privacy leaves traders vulnerable to individuals who can reverse-engineer their trading algorithms and exploit them. Zhao acknowledged that Hyperliquid could add privacy features, but noted that exchanges compete on multiple dimensions beyond single functionalities.

Besides the need for privacy, Zhao highlighted that how an exchange protects users and deals with mistakes is what matters.

Lastly, Zhao also predicted that perp DEXs will rival centralized exchange volumes within one cycle. New users are onboarded through centralized platforms with familiar interfaces, then migrate to DEXs for a broader selection and earlier access to tokens.

According to his timeframe:

“In 20, 30, 50 years out, everything will be on-chain. But in the interim, if there’s a big rush of traditional users, CEX will get better. Afterwards it will slowly slip into DEXes.”

Solana (SOL) is gaining fresh momentum as institutional inflows surge and network activity accelerates across decentralized exchanges (DEXs) and DeFi protocols. With traders targeting the $300 mark, Solana's bullish setup for Q4 2025 appears increasingly supported by data from both on-chain and institutional markets.

Sharps Technology, which holds one of the largest Solana treasuries in the U.S., has chosen Coinbase as its official custodian — a move that signals serious long-term intent and supports a bullish Solana price prediction.

Hedera Hashgraph’s native token, HBAR, experienced significant institutional selling pressure over the 24-hour trading period ending October 10, with prices moving within a volatile 6% range between $0.21 and $0.22. Despite showing early strength and briefly climbing near $0.22, the token reversed sharply during the final trading hour as large institutional investors initiated broad selloffs that wiped out earlier gains.

Trading data revealed an extraordinary surge in volume, reaching 262.49 million—almost six times higher than the daily average of 47.32 million. Analysts identified the 3:00 PM window as the key inflection point, marking the start of coordinated institutional liquidations, likely tied to portfolio rebalancing or risk management moves ahead of potential regulatory announcements.

Technically, HBAR broke through several short-term support levels during the final trading hour before stabilizing as market activity slowed. The sharp volume spike and subsequent decline hinted at temporary liquidity constraints or trading desk closures near session end.

Data from TradingView showed that resistance formed near the $0.22 zone, where institutional buying interest repeatedly failed to sustain upward momentum. Support around $0.21 was decisively broken as sell pressure intensified between 3:30 and 3:35 PM, when volume peaked at 12.80 million and 16.90 million, respectively. The price briefly recovered to $0.21 by 3:44 PM, before institutional activity halted entirely in the final minutes—likely signaling end-of-day position adjustments or risk mitigation in anticipation of broader market developments.

HBAR’s intraday volatility underscores the growing influence of institutional participants in crypto markets and highlights how regulatory uncertainty continues to shape short-term liquidity dynamics across digital assets.

Key Takeaways
How does Fusaka affect validators, network participation?
The upgrade reduces the data load for validators, enabling home users to secure the network without expensive hardware or high-speed internet.

What impact will Fusaka have on transaction processing?
Fusaka triples gas limits from 45 million to 150 million per block, allowing more transactions per block and supporting higher throughput.

Ethereum [ETH] is gearing up for its next major upgrade, Fusaka, following the successful Pectra rollout.

Designed to make the network faster, cheaper, and more accessible, Fusaka introduces innovations like PeerDAS. It will allow nodes to share data, instead of each downloading everything. 

By significantly reducing the data load required for validators, it will allow individuals to participate in network security from home without needing costly enterprise-grade hardware or ultra-fast internet connections.

Set to launch by the end of 2025, the upgrade could boost scalability, adoption, and even spark renewed optimism in Ethereum’s price trajectory.

Impact of Fusaka upgrade on Ethereum
Fusaka will also introduce a more sophisticated node architecture – One wherein supernodes take on the full transactional load, regular stakers manage moderate workloads, and light nodes handle minimal duties.

This division of labor would enable Ethereum to process a much larger volume of transactions and “blobs” (data chunks) without overloading the network, ensuring both resilience and efficiency.

In fact, early testing suggests that even as data volumes continue to rise, validator bandwidth remains within manageable limits. This creates room for Layer-2 rollups, a growing user base, and increasingly complex decentralized applications.

Additionally, the update also triples gas limits from 45 million to 150 million per block. All while increasing transaction capacity and helping Ethereum compete with faster networks like Solana. Especially since the latter leads in throughput and low latency.

Beyond technical improvements, Fusaka will also promote a healthier, more inclusive ecosystem by lowering barriers to entry, allowing greater participation, and supporting long-term sustainability.

Impact on ETH’s price action
In essence, this upgrade will position Ethereum to grow in capacity and adoption while remaining credibly neutral, faster, and more democratic. 

At the time of writing, Ethereum was trading at $4,341, following a minor decline of 1% in the last 24 hours and losses of 3.26% over the week. Now, if ETH breaks decisively above $5,000, the network could be positioned for a major price surge, with the altcoin possibly reaching $10,000 this cycle. 

And yet, the RSI lying below the neutral level seemed to imply that bulls need to do more work to dominate the bears.

All these hints mean that the network’s upcoming Fusaka upgrade could be a game-changer, potentially fueling renewed bullish momentum.

Among all the cryptocurrencies in the industry, few have seen as many comments and predictions as XRP. Once trapped under legal uncertainty, XRP has begun to reclaim attention thanks to favorable legal developments and the anticipated launch of Spot XRP ETFs. 

However, XRP’s current valuation is significantly below that of the largest cryptocurrency, Bitcoin. But what if XRP were to rise to the same market capitalization as Bitcoin? Data from MarketCapOf offers a glimpse into how much each XRP token would be worth if it reached Bitcoin’s current market cap.

Linking XRP’s Price With Bitcoin’s Market Cap
Bitcoin’s market capitalization has reached heights that rival and even surpass some of the world’s largest multinational corporations. Notably, Bitcoin’s current market cap of $2.415 trillion places it shoulder to shoulder with tech giants like Apple and Microsoft. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is the eighth-biggest asset by market cap, just behind Silver and Amazon, and well ahead of Meta Platforms, Broadcom, and Saudi Aramco. 

XRP is currently the third biggest cryptocurrency in terms of market cap, but its market cap is far below Bitcoin’s lead. However, many analysts and market commentators believe XRP stands out as one of the few assets capable of challenging Bitcoin’s dominance. 

Source: Chart from MarketCapOf on X
This belief originates from XRP’s alignment with traditional finance. Its established partnerships with banks and payment providers give it a practical use case that most cryptocurrencies do not have.

At the time of writing, XRP has a market cap of $168 billion, not even up to one-tenth of Bitcoin’s market cap. According to MarketCapOf, if XRP were to reach Bitcoin’s current market cap, each token would be worth approximately $40.68. 

Given XRP’s circulating supply of about 53.4 billion tokens, this price prediction represents an increase of over 14,000% or 14.35x, from its current level of around $2.8. In practical terms, an early investor holding just 1,000 XRP today would see their holdings valued at more than $40,000 under this scenario.

What This Means For XRP Holders
The comparison provides a valuable perspective on XRP’s long-term potential and the scale of value transfer possible within the crypto market. It also shows how far XRP needs to go in order to reach Bitcoin’s current level.

Bitcoin’s dominance today is due to its first-mover advantage and its acceptance as a store of value. However, XRP is growing in remittances and real-world asset tokenization, and Ripple’s stakeholders are working to challenge SWIFT. This gives the cryptocurrency a utility foundation that could cause the growth of its market share.

If Ripple continues to secure partnerships with central banks, payment providers, and institutional investors, as Ripple has increasingly done in regions like the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Latin America, then the idea of XRP closing even a fraction of the gap with Bitcoin becomes less far-fetched. 

At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.83. Another factor that could contribute to this projected price growth is if Spot XRP ETFs are launched in the US and they perform well.

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has sharply criticized Senate Democrats’ leaked proposal to regulate decentralized finance (DeFi), calling it a dangerous move toward government overreach and centralization. In a YouTube livestream, Hoskinson dissected the proposed legislation, warning that it could give the U.S. Treasury excessive power over blockchain protocols without due process.

Hoskinson argued that the proposed bill would allow the Treasury to maintain a restricted list of DeFi protocols, effectively acting as judge and executioner with “no oversight, no appeals, no due process.” He cautioned that such power could turn into a “kill switch,” threatening the foundation of decentralized systems and innovation in the crypto industry.

The Cardano founder also condemned the bill’s removal of developer protections. Under the proposed framework, anyone involved in designing, deploying, or operating a front-end service for a DeFi protocol could be treated as a regulated intermediary. Hoskinson warned this definition could criminalize developers and builders who form the backbone of decentralized innovation.

Beyond regulatory issues, Hoskinson directed his frustration toward the Democratic Party, accusing it of abandoning its values. He said Democrats once claimed to support “the little guy,” but now only serve the interests of large institutions. “The little guy is the DeFi user — the person downloading a wallet, buying an NFT, or building a meme coin,” he said. “They’re the ones who built crypto, not banks or tech giants.”

Hoskinson further argued that pushing the crypto industry out of the U.S. would be an economic mistake, potentially transferring trillions of dollars in future growth to foreign markets. He urged the public to contact their senators and support a more balanced, bipartisan approach. “Don’t let a small group of Democrat senators destroy this progress,” he warned. “Let your voices be heard — we can’t lose this fight.”

By challenging what he sees as overreach and political bias, Hoskinson joins a growing number of industry leaders urging policymakers to pursue innovation-friendly regulation rather than control-driven policies.

Bitcoin (BTC) may be on the verge of a powerful move that could redefine its price trajectory, according to veteran trader Peter Brandt. The experienced chart analyst believes that if Bitcoin's current four-year cycle deviates from its historical pattern, it could trigger an unusually strong rally — potentially pushing prices well beyond previous expectations.

How ERC-8004 will make Ethereum the home of decentralized AI agents Oluwapelumi Adejumo · 4 seconds ago · 2 min read

As the AI market grows, Ethereum’s ERC-8004 standard offers a new paradigm for trust and reputation among autonomous agents.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is evolving beyond chatbots and copilots, and the next frontier of this fast-developing industry is a world of AI agents.

These autonomous digital actors can browse the web, negotiate contracts, make payments, and collaborate with other machines.

The market supporting this shift is immense, with data from Statista projecting the global AI sector to surpass $1 trillion by 2031. Notably, the report suggests that a significant market share would be dedicated to agentic systems capable of independent decision-making.

Yet one question dominates the conversation: How will millions of these autonomous agents trust, verify, and transact with each other?

While technological firms like Google are racing to build centralized agent ecosystems, developers within the crypto community argue that the most neutral and verifiable substrate for this emerging machine economy isn’t a corporate cloud—it’s Ethereum.

Why Ethereum matters for AIEthereum’s open ledger already secures more than $550 billion in on-chain assets and millions of smart contracts.

For developers like Binji, an Ethereum Foundation engineer, that makes it a natural foundation for “trustware”—a public layer where machines can anchor identity, memory, and proof of action.

According to him:

“if you were an agent with no loyalty except to your own survival, you wouldn’t want to bet your memory and reputation on one corporation or one government: you’d want a ledger that no one could quietly change behind your back. you’d want neutral ground. you’d want Ethereum.”

ERC-8004Considering this, the network developers have been working on a technical framework to enable these AI agents to thrive without a third-party intervention.

On Oct. 9, the Ethereum Foundation’s dAI team and Consensys unveiled ERC-8004, a new standard designed to enable AI agents to discover, authenticate, and cooperate directly on-chain, without centralized intermediaries.

At its core, ERC-8004 extends the Agent-to-Agent (A2A) protocol with three lightweight registries for Identity, Reputation, and Validation.

Each agent receives a portable on-chain identity encoded as an ERC-721 token, allowing it to be viewed, transferred, or managed via existing Ethereum wallets. The registry file linked to that NFT describes the agent’s skills, endpoints, and metadata, forming a standardized “passport” for machine actors.

The proposal enables agents to establish trust autonomously without centralized intermediaries, bridging the gap between AI systems and blockchain infrastructure.

The framework also supports on-chain reputation by integrating x402 payment proofs and feedback data, allowing agents to build provable behavior histories.

Essentially, ERC-8004 positions Ethereum as the potential coordination layer for a decentralized AI economy. In this environment, AI agents, not humans, will negotiate transactions, manage resources, and form DAOs.

Binji stressed that the technology could fuel the next boom in AI agents, while simultaneously boosting Ethereum’s core value proposition of “trust without intermediaries.”

He added:

“This is just the beginning of machines running on trustware. smart contracts are how we will communicate with ai, the immutable ledger is how they will communicate with eachother, and ethereum is how we will build this right.”
