Private Besu chains don't have to start isolated.
With @0xPolygon CDK Besu, banks and financial institutions can launch private networks connected to Agglayer from the start, while transaction data stays private.
Here's a closer look๐
6/6 GenLayer Labs and the Foundation commit to self-staking no more than 10% of their allocations.
The rest of any staked balance goes to independent community validators.

Big day for @get_optimum! Congrats on the mainnet launch! ๐
We're now running mump2p in our Ethereum validator infrastructure to make data propagation faster and more efficient. The goal is better performance and lower bandwidth usage.
Great to be working together!๐ค
The Optimum team is pleased to announce our first mainnet deployment, mump2p on Ethereum. With mump2p, data moves across all of Ethereum 2-3x faster, boosting validator performance and network health.
$3.4B of Ethereum stake is already being boosted by mump2p, and weโre now opening up free access for all Ethereum node operators.
Weโre continuing to actively investigate and respond to the security incident affecting part of our infrastructure.
Our focus remains on working closely with affected partners and taking appropriate steps to protect users. As part of this, we worked with our partners to take the precautionary step of exiting affected validators.
Based on our investigation to date, there is no indication that MetaMask wallets or customer funds have been affected.
Our teams continue to work through containment and verification, and weโll share further verified information as appropriate.
As always, please remain vigilant: be cautious of unsolicited messages, never share your Secret Recovery Phrase or private keys, and rely on official MetaMask channels for updates. MetaMask will never ask you for your Secret Recovery Phrase.
Weโll continue to share updates here as our investigation progresses: https://t.co/hbr8mYYp4W
A new stablecoin built for AI agents is now live๐ฅ
@verona_dev launched verUSD, designed for paying for verified data and settling agent transactions. It launched with $100M+ in commitments and is live on 7 chains from day one.
Verona has been settling payments in USDC for four years, so it starts with existing payment volume.
Liquidity is at the core of every DEX, and how it's structured affects every swap.
@hydration_net brings together different liquidity models with multiple ways to trade, from DCA and Split Trade to OTC.
Letโs dive in ๐
Access to crypto data still often relies on trusted providers.
@shinzonetwork is changing that โ signing data at the source so it can be verified all the way back. This creates a more open and verifiable way to access blockchain data.
Letโs take a closer look๐
1/ Validatrium is now operating as a Generator on the Shinzล testnet.
Generators read blocks, structure them, and cryptographically sign them at the source.
@validatrium is now one of them, helping power the trustless, verifiable data read layer.
AI can reason, but reaching consensus on AI-generated results is a different challenge.
@GenLayer approaches this with Intelligent Contracts, validators, and a consensus model designed for non-deterministic execution.
Hereโs a quick look at how AI-driven consensus works in GenLayer ๐
More real-world financial activity is coming to @monad.
Abound, which processed over $500M in remittances last year, is building its next wave of products on the network โ from multi-currency wallets and cross-border transfers to savings, investment products, and AI-powered payment flows.
Another real-world use case taking shape on Monad.
