Bitcoin Figure Adam Back Denies Being Satoshi Nakamoto

Adam Back, a prominent cryptographer, has denied being Bitcoin's pseudonymous creator Satoshi Nakamoto following a New York Times investigation that identified him as the leading candidate. The investigation, led by journalist John Carreyrou, analyzed over 134,000 posts from cryptography mailing lists and found Back's writing style—including specific hyphenation quirks, British spellings, and formatting habits—closely matched Satoshi's. A key piece of evidence was a 2023 tweet where Back wrote "We Are All Satoshi," which he clarified was merely a reference to a short film and not a hidden admission. Back dismissed the findings, arguing that his extensive public participation in digital cash discussions naturally produced more data points for analysis. He emphasized that he does not know Satoshi's identity and stated that Bitcoin benefits from having no known founder, as it reinforces its status as a decentralized asset.

Cango sells 2,000 BTC in ‘strategic deleveraging’ as Bitcoin miners pivot to AI

Cango, a publicly traded Bitcoin mining company, has sold 2,000 BTC in a strategic move to pay off its BTC-backed loans and reduce debt. The firm raised $75 million from the sale, with some funds allocated to support its diversification into energy and AI infrastructure. This pivot is part of a broader trend among major miners, including Marathon Digital and Core Scientific, who are repurposing their computing resources towards AI ventures. As a result, Bitcoin's global hashrate has declined by 17.4%, potentially lowering network security but creating opportunities for smaller miners to benefit from reduced competition and lower production costs. Despite improving its own mining efficiency, Cango remains vulnerable if Bitcoin's price falls below its production cost of $68.2K.

MakerDAO Transforms and Receives B- Credit Rating, Same Level as Congo Government Bonds

MakerDAO, the decentralized finance lending protocol, and its subDAO Spark are undertaking measures to improve their credit rating in a bid to attract institutional capital. In August, S&P Global Ratings assigned a B- rating to MakerDAO’s USDS and DAI stablecoins, placing them in the "junk bond" category, equivalent to the government bonds of the Democratic Republic of Congo. To enhance its standing, the protocol plans to repackage debt backing USDS, isolate exposure to high-risk yield sources, and introduce junior capital vaults. These structural changes aim to align with traditional finance expectations and mitigate concerns over riskier assets like Ethena’s USDe, which previously received a high-risk weighting from S&P. Spark intends to launch first-loss capital vaults in Q2, offering higher risk but greater returns, similar to junior tranches in traditional structured finance. The move reflects a broader trend among DeFi protocols seeking credibility through ratings from established agencies like S&P, Moody’s, and Fitch, as well as emerging crypto-native firms like Credora. Improving credit ratings is increasingly critical as DeFi aims to capture capital from traditional financial institutions entering the blockchain space.

Treasuries and yield funds – Is this the next phase of tokenization?

Tokenized finance is experiencing significant growth, with BNB Chain's tokenized asset market cap reaching a record $16.6 billion, more than doubling year-over-year. The broader tokenized funds market has expanded to $31.9 billion, driven primarily by yield-bearing products rather than simple stablecoins. While Tether and USDC remain the largest issuers, faster growth is occurring among smaller players like Ondo Finance, Maple Finance, and Centrifuge. The trend highlights a shift beyond cash proxies toward income-generating on-chain assets, signaling a new phase in asset tokenization.

Node Count Drops 70%, This Time Solana Is in a Hurry

Solana's validator count has dropped by 70% from its peak of 2,560 in March 2023 to around 756, accompanied by a 35% decrease in its Nakamoto coefficient, indicating increased centralization. This decline is largely due to the phasing out of the Solana Foundation Delegation Program (SFDP), which previously subsidized smaller validators. Many of these validators were economically unviable without support, controlling only 19% of the total stake, while larger nodes held over 80%. In response, Solana is implementing a new validator policy effective May 1, focusing on infrastructure decentralization. The policy imposes limits: no single Autonomous System Number (ASN) can host more than 25% of staked SOL, and no single data center can exceed 15%. It also enforces stricter performance rules, including faster transaction processing and anti-censorship measures, to improve network reliability and security. Critics, like node operator Chainflow, argue that the rules may unfairly penalize competent smaller validators based on their hosting location rather than performance, potentially forcing them into less reliable infrastructure and accelerating their decline. Amid ambitions to become a "Nasdaq on-chain" for global capital markets, Solana trails Ethereum and BNB Chain in real-world asset (RWA) value but leads in user activity. The network's upgrades aim to enhance stability and reduce finality times, competing with Ethereum's efforts to scale and decentralize further. The success of Solana's new policies is crucial for gaining institutional trust and competing effectively in the evolving blockchain landscape.

Altcoins To Make New Millionaires: Pundit Says Money Printer Will Turn On Once Bitcoin Does This

Bitcoin's prolonged correction has not deterred crypto analysts, who predict a massive bull run once it breaks its all-time high. One pundit forecasts Bitcoin surge to $300,000, triggering a sequence where Ethereum follows, and billions flow into mid- and low-cap altcoins. This could expand the total crypto market cap from $2.5 trillion to $8-10 trillion. Drawing parallels to the 2012 cycle, the analysis suggests a similar pattern: an initial peak, a corrective phase, then an exponential rally. Another analyst notes the OTHERS/BTC ratio at a key support level, projecting a potential 702% altcoin surge in 2026, mirroring 2017 and 2021 bull markets.

Why is Covenant AI Fleeing Bittensor?

Covenant AI announced its exit from the Bittensor network, accusing co-founder Jacob Steeves (Const) of centralized control and governance abuses. The team claimed Steeves unilaterally suspended subnet emissions, revoked community management permissions, deprecated infrastructure without due process, and exerted economic pressure through token sales. Covenant AI highlighted its achievement in developing Covenant-72B—a 72-billion-parameter language model trained collaboratively by over 70 contributors on consumer hardware—as proof that decentralized AI training is viable. However, they argued that Bittensor’s governance is effectively controlled by a small group, with Steeves retaining ultimate authority, contradicting the network’s promised decentralized and permissionless nature. The incident sparked community debate, with some critics pointing to Covenant AI founder Sam Dare’s prior sale of 37,000 $TAO tokens. Meanwhile, $TAO’s price dipped amid the controversy. Covenant AI reaffirmed its commitment to decentralized AI and will continue its mission independently, emphasizing that true decentralization cannot coexist with centralized control.

Crypto Bear Market Startup Guide Part 2: The Token Relay Station - Exchanging Crypto Tokens for AI Tokens

"Token Relay Station: A Guide to Starting a Crypto Bear Market Business (Part 2) - Exchanging Crypto Tokens for AI Tokens" This article explores the business opportunity of creating an AI token relay station, a service that acts as an API aggregation layer. It allows users to pay with cryptocurrency (Crypto Tokens) to access credits for various AI models (AI Tokens), bypassing traditional payment barriers. The piece highlights a significant, underserved market: using crypto to directly purchase AI API credits and the potential "reverse export" of cheaper, high-performing Chinese models (like Qwen, Kimi, GLM) to overseas users. It uses OpenRouter, co-founded by OpenSea's ex-CTO Alex Atallah, as a key case study of a successful pivot from crypto to AI infrastructure, noting its support for crypto payments. The analysis reveals market challenges, including widespread fraud where users pay for premium models but receive inferior ones, and unstable supply chains reliant on bulk accounts prone to bans. It outlines three business models: global/developer-focused (OpenRouter), multi-modal/China-focused (APIMart.ai), and hyper-localized operations. Substantial risks are also detailed: high capital requirements for API procurement and infrastructure, the necessity of stable supply channels, complex legal and compliance issues around data resale and cross-border regulations, and the critical importance of user trust. Ultimately, the article posits this as a viable, revenue-generating business model for the crypto bear market, built on real API usage-based income rather than speculative token narratives.

Crypto Enters the Investment Era: Institutional Entry Reshapes Capital Structure, Revenue and Value Return Become Core Metrics

Cryptocurrency is transitioning from a speculative era dominated by memecoins and "pump-and-dump" schemes to an investment-focused phase driven by institutional adoption and real revenue generation. By 2026, tokens without sustainable income or value accrual mechanisms will struggle, while protocols with proven revenue, strong tokenomics, and holder rewards will dominate. Key metrics like Price-to-Sales (P/S) ratios and annualized holder yield are becoming critical for evaluation. Major institutions (e.g., NYSE, BlackRock) are leveraging blockchain for faster settlements and tokenized assets, accelerating DeFi adoption. However, concentration risk is high: only ~3.5% of protocols generate significant revenue, and the top players often capture most market share. The future may see AI-driven "agent finance" further consolidating activity into high-utility, revenue-generating protocols, leaving others obsolete.

The TAO Subnet Team Praised by Jensen Huang Has Parted Ways with the Founder Amidst a Fallout

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang recently praised the decentralized AI project Bittensor (TAO) during a podcast, specifically highlighting a 72-billion-parameter Llama model trained collaboratively by a subnet team called Covenant AI. This endorsement initially boosted TAO's price, but the situation deteriorated rapidly when Covenant AI's founder, Sam Dare, publicly announced the team's departure from the Bittensor network. Covenant AI accused Bittensor and its key figure, Jacob Steeves (known as Const), of centralization and abuse of power, contradicting Bittensor’s decentralized ethos. The team claimed that Const exercised unilateral control by halting subnet emissions, removing administrative rights, discarding infrastructure, and using token sales to pressure the team. They argued that Bittensor’s governance is effectively centralized under Const, despite claims of distributed control. As a result, Covenant AI decided to leave, intending to continue its work on decentralized AI training elsewhere. The exit has sparked significant concern within the Bittensor community, raising doubts about the network’s decentralization narrative, technical future, and token value. TAO’s price fell sharply following the news. Const responded vaguely on social media, suggesting the event would push Bittensor toward more decentralized, “headless” subnets, but has not addressed the specific allegations in detail. The incident has damaged Bittensor’s reputation while raising Covenant AI’s profile.
