Разработчики Zama объявили о запуске Testnet v2, которая стала финальной версией перед запуском основной цепочки. Новая версия практически полностью повторяет архитектуру будущего финального релиза протокола. Проект использует технологию гомоморфного шифрования (FHE) как конфиденциальный слой поверх существующих блокчейнов. Такое решение позволяет обеспечивать приватные транзакции без создания новых цепочек 1-го или 2-го уровня (L1 и L2). Команда отмечает, что платформа работает подобно HTTPS, добавляя шифрование к базовому уровню.

Первая версия тестнета была запущена в июле и получила более 100 тыс. пользователей, зарегистрировавших адреса. Они совершили свыше 1 млн зашифрованных операций на ранних этапах. В первые дни сеть занимала около половины блокспейса Sepolia. Затем команда постепенно развернула Testnet v2. Теперь разработчики могут запускать проекты, которые будут совместимы с основной цепочкой.

Testnet v2 стала первой платформой, на которой команда провела полностью распределенную церемонию генерации ключей. Эта процедура заняла около 55 часов. В ней участвовали операторы Zama, которые формируют основу безопасности сети. Это стало крупнейшим внедрением threshold FHE в индустрии. Команда заявила, что результат той точкой, к которой шли несколько лет.

Следующим этапом станет стресс-тестирование, которое откроет путь к запуску основной сети. Бета-версия мейннета будет 1-м протоколом FHE в продакшене. Изначально она появится в экосистеме Ethereum. Поддержка других блокчейнов запланирована на 2026 год. Параллельно разработчики готовят выпуск токена ZAMA.

Несколько приложений уже планируют запуск с использованием протокола. Zaiffer создаст формат конфиденциальных токенов на базе ERC-7984. TokenOps позволит компаниям проводить распределения и вестинги в приватном формате. Bron станет первым кошельком с нативной поддержкой конфиденциальных виртуальных активов. Raycash предложит защищенную модель хранения стабильных монет для операций на цепочке и за ее пределами.

Операторы сети прошли отбор по уровню кибербезопасности и технической подготовке. Коллективный пул включает структуры, которые в совокупности защищают более $100 млрд. Среди операторов — Ledger, Fireblocks, Unit 410, Conduit и другие участники отрасли. Проверки протокола проходили для TFHE-rs, KMS, шлюзов, ко-процессоров и смарт-контрактов управления. Общий объем работы составил около 70 недель. В процессе процедуры устранили все критические уязвимости. Проверки проводили Trail of Bits, OpenZeppelin, Zenith, Burrasec и Alexandra Institute. Токен ZAMA будет использоваться для оплаты операций шифрования и стейкинга.

0.7nm Process Chip Emerges, Moore's Law Lives On

IBM has unveiled the world's first sub-1-nanometer (0.7nm) chip technology, integrating nearly 100 billion transistors into an area the size of a fingernail. This breakthrough doubles the transistor density of current 2nm chips and promises a 50% performance gain or a 70% improvement in power efficiency. The achievement is powered by IBM's "NanoStack" architecture, a pioneering 3D design featuring vertically stacked nanosheet transistors. This evolution from FinFET and Gate-All-Around (GAA) technologies offers superior electrostatic control. IBM has demonstrated the technology's viability with functional CMOS inverters and a 40% area reduction in SRAM, crucial for AI chip data bandwidth. Addressing the critical power consumption challenges in AI computing, this advancement extends the roadmap for chip miniaturization. While IBM does not manufacture chips itself, it licenses its process technology to partners. The company projects that NanoStack-based chips could enter production within the next five years, potentially sustaining Moore's Law for another decade.

The Creators of ChatGPT No Longer Use ChatGPT for Work

The creators of ChatGPT are increasingly moving away from using it themselves, shifting their primary AI tool to AI agents like Codex. As of June 2026, Codex handles 99.8% of OpenAI's weekly output tokens—a dramatic rise from less than 10% just ten months prior. This transition, which accelerated around September, marks a fundamental change: from single-turn chatbot queries to delegating entire, long-running tasks to autonomous agents. The shift began with engineers but quickly spread company-wide. By April 2026, non-technical departments like legal, finance, and HR had adopted Codex as their primary tool, with personnel in these roles now generating over 85% of their output tokens through it. Notably, growth among non-developer users has far outpaced that of developers. Codex has evolved from a coding assistant into a general workflow agent. It can autonomously manage complex, multi-step processes—from implementation and debugging to testing—running for hours without human intervention. Heavy users at OpenAI can now delegate over 60 hours of agent runtime per day. The model underpinning Codex, GPT-5.5, not only executes tasks but also optimizes its own infrastructure, demonstrating improved efficiency. This report signals a broader shift in knowledge work: the key differentiator is becoming the scale and complexity of tasks users are willing to fully delegate to AI agents.

Grayscale cuts fees ahead of MSOL launch – Will institutions drive Solana’s next rally?

Grayscale has reduced the fee for its Spot Solana (SOL) ETF from 0.35% to 0.19%, positioning it among the lowest-cost Solana ETFs. This move is seen as a competitive response to Morgan Stanley's planned launch of a Solana ETF (MSOL) with an even lower 0.14% fee. While the broader crypto market is weak, with over $100 billion flowing out recently, institutional interest in Solana appears to be growing strategically. This interest is underpinned by Solana's on-chain strength, including a record Real-World Asset (RWA) ecosystem value surpassing $3.10 billion. Additional institutional support comes from listings like the Solana ETF on the Kazakhstan Stock Exchange. Analysts suggest these converging signals—ETF competition, sustained on-chain activity, and institutional positioning—could set the stage for a stronger institutional cycle for SOL in Q3, potentially diverging from broader market weakness.

Arthur Hayes Sells NEAR, Worldcoin And Zcash In Rotation To Energy Stocks

Arthur Hayes adopts a more defensive crypto portfolio stance, citing distorted liquidity conditions due to AI-related debt absorption. He has exited altcoin positions in NEAR, Worldcoin, Zcash, and Hyperliquid, arguing that tighter liquidity near-term is less supportive for speculative, higher-beta assets. However, Hayes maintains his core structural bullishness on Bitcoin and Ether, viewing them as long-term monetary and smart-contract hedges, respectively. He is rotating some capital into Treasuries and energy stocks. His framework emphasizes that crypto remains highly sensitive to macro liquidity flows, credit conditions, and capital allocation trends outside the industry, suggesting traders exercise caution on crowded altcoin trades while awaiting broader liquidity improvement.

The Rise of Stablecoins in Latin America Is Not, in Essence, a 'Victory for Crypto Technology'

The Rise of Stablecoins in Latin America: Not a Victory for Crypto, But for Remittance Infrastructure Stablecoin adoption in Latin America isn't primarily driven by belief in crypto technology. It's a pragmatic solution to a centuries-old problem: getting money home. The article draws parallels to the traditional "silver letters" (银信) system used by Chinese diaspora, where trust and execution relied on tight-knit community networks. The core pain point is remittances—the lifeblood for millions of families. Existing systems are often slow, expensive, and opaque. Stablecoins like USDT and USDC are not seen as speculative crypto assets but as "digital dollars in your phone." They address critical local needs: Argentinians use them as a hedge against hyperinflation, Venezuelans as a lifeline for essential goods, while in Brazil and Mexico, they facilitate cross-border payments and freelance payouts. The real challenge isn't the blockchain transfer itself, but the "on-ramps" and "off-ramps"—how to convert local currency into stablecoins and, crucially, how recipients can access the funds as spendable local currency via systems like Pix (Brazil) or SPEI (Mexico). The battlefield is building the infrastructure that seamlessly connects these ends. Regulators are less focused on "crypto adoption" and more on controlling what becomes a parallel foreign exchange system, concerned with AML, consumer protection, and capital flows. The future lies in stablecoins becoming an invisible, efficient middle layer in a new remittance stack, where the user only cares about one thing: the money arrived.
