MetaMask and Hyperliquid Partnership Brings Perp Trading to Mobile App

TheCryptoTimesPublicado a 2025-10-08Actualizado a 2025-10-08

MetaMask, the world’s largest self-custodial crypto wallet built by Consensys, has launched a perpetual futures trading feature on its mobile app. The integration is powered by Hyperliquid, allowing users to directly trade perpetuals within the Metamask app for Bitcoin, Ether and a number of other cryptocurrencies. 

According to the release, traders will be able to access perpetuals — or “perps” — directly in-app with one-click funding from any EVM-compatible blockchain. Users can now trade without switching platforms, deposit instantly, and pay zero swap fees on perpetuals, all on the same platform. This is MetaMask’s biggest product expansion yet as it turns the wallet into a complete self-custodial trading and investment hub.

Rewards and Upcoming Token

MetaMask also said it will soon launch a rewards program called MetaMask Rewards by the end of October. This program lets users earn points for doing actions on-chain, such swaps, bridging, and trading.

The company is also planning to give away $30 million worth of LINEA tokens as part of this system. These rewards are expected to tie into the upcoming MetaMask token, which the company confirmed is in progress and will launch later. 

Polymarket Integration to Expand Reach

MetaMask also confirmed that it plans to integrate with Polymarket, a decentralized prediction market platform, later this year. This is meant to allow users to participate in on-chain prediction markets directly within MetaMask. 

Moreover, prediction platforms like Polymarket have gained attention recently, especially after its parent company received up to $2 billion in funding from Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), the owner of the New York Stock Exchange.

Perpetual futures make up about 75% of all crypto trading volume, historically dominated by centralized exchanges. With decentralized perpetual trading reaching a record $765 billion in August 2025, MetaMask’s latest move positions it among the few wallets offering pro-level trading tools natively.

PA Graphic | One Picture to Understand Major Web3 Events Worth Watching in June

June's crypto market is dominated by key macro events, token unlocks, and project developments. The major focus is on US economic data releases, including May's Nonfarm Payrolls and CPI figures, alongside the Federal Reserve's policy meeting and press conference. These will heavily influence market risk appetite. The European Central Bank and Bank of Japan will also announce interest rate decisions, keeping global liquidity and rate paths in focus. Significant token unlocks are scheduled for assets like SUI and ENA, posing potential market risks. Notable project updates include Coinbase launching its first perpetual stock index futures and CME Group planning a Nasdaq Crypto Index. SharpLink will be added to Russell indexes. Conversely, project consolidation continues, with services like the Bitcoin Ordinals browser Ord.io shutting down, requiring users to manage asset transfers. Other key events span technology and sports, such as the start of the World Cup, Apple's WWDC26, SpaceX's stock market debut, and Yushu Technology's IPO review. Overall, June's market direction will be shaped by evolving liquidity expectations, regulatory shifts, and ecosystem rotation amidst these converging events.

Alibaba 'Stocks Up', ByteDance 'Trains'

"In late May, two closely timed events in China's AI industry clearly revealed the divergent strategic approaches of two tech giants: Alibaba and ByteDance. Alibaba is aggressively integrating AI into its existing commercial ecosystem, prioritizing immediate monetization. Its Qwen App now fully integrates with Taobao, leveraging the platform's 4-billion-item database for AI-powered shopping features like virtual try-on and price comparison. Internally, Alibaba has reorganized to incentivize AI-driven business growth, notably through the 'Agentic Commerce Trust Protocol' to enable AI-agent transactions. Financially, it emphasizes ROI, with CEO Daniel Wu stating every AI chip purchased is generating revenue. Alibaba's strategy bets that foundational AI model capabilities won't be leapfrogged in the next five years, allowing its 'AI-as-a-utility' approach to succeed. In stark contrast, ByteDance's Seed division focuses on pushing the frontiers of AGI with a long-term, research-oriented mindset. Its video generation model, Seedance 2.0, topped international benchmarks. The division, led by researchers Wu Yonghui and product head Zhu Wenjia, is tasked with 'exploring the upper limits of intelligence,' even considering open-sourcing its models—a rare move among Chinese firms. ByteDance is investing heavily, with reports of its 2026 capital expenditure plan being nearly triple that of 2024, funded by its substantial private profits. This allows it to pursue projects like an 8-month research paper questioning if video models are true 'world models,' devoid of immediate commercial pressure. The core divergence is less about corporate philosophy and more about structural constraints. As a publicly traded company, Alibaba is bound to quarterly financial expectations, forcing a pragmatic, revenue-focused AI integration. As a private entity, ByteDance has the luxury to fund long-term, high-risk foundational research without answering to public markets. The article concludes that the true determinant of a Chinese company's AI path is its IPO status, suggesting that if ByteDance were public, or if Alibaba were private, their strategies might well be reversed."

Circle Blacklists Zama Protocol Address, Freezing $12.6M In User Funds – Details

Circle has blacklisted a smart contract address for the Zama protocol's Confidential USDC (cUSDC), freezing approximately $12.6 million in user funds. The action, identified by on-chain investigator ZachXBT, targeted a publicly documented contract on Ethereum. Investigations suggest the frozen funds may be indirectly connected to ongoing controversy and legal issues surrounding Overnight Finance, an asset-management protocol. A wallet linked to Overnight Finance had deposited a large sum into the Zama contract amidst governance disputes and allegations of a possible rug pull. This move by Circle, reportedly made without prior warning to Zama, has reignited criticism over transparency and unilateral enforcement by centralized stablecoin issuers. It highlights concerns about how external legal and governance risks can impact unrelated users in interconnected DeFi systems. Circle has not provided an official explanation for the freeze.

Why More AI Agents Does Not Equal Higher Productivity?

Editor's Note: As AI Agents become cheaper and easier to use, a new constraint emerges: the cost isn't in launching more Agents, but in the human attention required to manage, judge, and integrate their outputs. This hidden cost is called the "orchestration tax." The article argues that a developer's cognitive bandwidth is the key bottleneck—a serial, non-parallelizable resource akin to a Global Interpreter Lock (GIL). While many Agents can run concurrently, their results ultimately require human judgment for review, conflict resolution, and final integration. Therefore, more Agents don't automatically mean higher productivity; they can simply create longer queues, lead to cognitive fatigue, and create the illusion of busyness without real output. The core solution is to design workflows around this scarce human attention. Key strategies include: scaling the number of Agents to match review capacity (not UI capacity), categorizing tasks (delegating independent ones, keeping complex judgment-heavy ones serial), batch reviewing results to minimize context-switching costs, automating verifiable checks to reserve human judgment for critical decisions, and protecting focused, uninterrupted thinking time. Ultimately, the critical skill is not launching many Agents, but architecting systems that respect the fundamental limit of human attention. Unpaid "orchestration tax" accumulates as both technical and cognitive debt, undermining system understanding and quality. True productivity comes from thoughtfully managing the single-threaded resource—your focus.

Three Years Later: Looking Back at My Predictions About ChatGPT in 2023

Three Years Later: Revisiting My 2023 Predictions on ChatGPT In March 2023, shortly after ChatGPT's launch, I made 20 predictions about its future. Now, in mid-2026, I've used AI agents to fact-check each one against the latest data. Overall, most major directional forecasts were correct, with only one outright error (incorrectly stating GPT-4 had 100 trillion parameters). Key successes included predicting that RAG and retrieval architectures would become the standard for handling knowledge and hallucinations, that natural language interfaces (LUI) would create a massive new industry layer beyond the models themselves, and that China would develop viable large language models, significantly closing the performance gap with Western counterparts within about three years. Predictions about the absence of mass unemployment, the rise of a new "robot network" for agent communication, and ChatGPT not possessing consciousness also held true in their core arguments. However, the "devil was in the details." Errors frequently involved specific numbers, timelines, or overlooking distributional effects. I tended to overestimate the speed of adoption (e.g., for agent networks) while underestimating the ultimate scale of capabilities or costs (e.g., AI winning IMO gold without tools, or the extreme capital required for frontier models). Other misjudgments included: underestimating how AI would reinforce, not dissolve, information filter bubbles; incorrectly assuming AI-generated content would easily circumvent copyright (it has instead triggered record-breaking settlements); and misidentifying where value would be captured (it accrued overwhelmingly to the compute layer, like Nvidia, not just the application or model layers). Key lessons from reviewing these predictions are: 1) Directional and mechanistic insights are far more reliable than precise numbers or absolute statements. 2) There's a consistent bias to overestimate short-term speed but underestimate long-term magnitude. 3) Errors often lie in missing distributional impacts within a generally correct aggregate trend. 4) Predictions phrased with nuance and caveats aged the best. 5) Some fundamental debates (e.g., on machine consciousness or the ultimate value chain) remain unresolved even after three years. This exercise is less about scoring the past and more about establishing rules for clearer thinking about the next three years of AI.
