Why Do 85% of Token Launches Ultimately Become Expensive 'Funerals'?

According to Arrakis Research, 85% of tokens launched in 2025 ended the year with negative returns, highlighting a systemic failure in token design rather than market conditions. Token Generation Events (TGEs) are not celebrations but "open gladiator arenas" where flawed economic models are exploited. Key failures include excessive Fully Diluted Valuations (FDV) over $1 billion, which had a 100% failure rate, and low initial circulation, leading to massive sell pressure upon unlocks. Only 9.4% of tokens that dropped in their first week recovered. The report identifies four critical success factors: 1. **Sybil Resistance:** Filtering out airdrop farmers (e.g., LayerZero’s efforts reduced initial sell-off). 2. **Revenue-Based Airdrops:** Treating airdrops as customer acquisition costs tied to real protocol usage. 3. **Ready Infrastructure:** Staking, governance, and custody must be operational at launch to provide utility and retain holders. 4. **Effective Market Makers:** Choosing transparent market-making services that provide liquidity depth, not artificial demand. The ultimate goal is achieving decentralization in development, governance, value distribution, and participation. Success requires building genuine demand through protocol utility, not marketing hype. Tokens must be designed to withstand inherent sell pressure from airdrop recipients, exchanges, and market makers from day one.

Pi Network Introduces PiRC1 Token Framework for Mainnet Ecosystem

Pi Network has introduced the PiRC1 token framework, a new utility-oriented standard for creating and managing tokens within its Mainnet ecosystem. This framework provides structured guidelines for token issuance, distribution, and emission logic, aiming to support real-world applications and services. A key feature is that funds from token launches will be directed to liquidity pools rather than project teams, enhancing trade stability. The proposal is open for community feedback on GitHub, reflecting Pi Network’s focus on community-driven governance. The move is expected to attract more developers and provide competitive advantages by offering clear operational parameters. This development coincides with significant Mainnet growth, including millions of users completing identity verification.

Too busy to vote? Vitalik Buterin says AI can do it for you!

Vitalik Buterin, Ethereum Co-Founder, has proposed a novel solution to address low participation and centralization in DAO governance: AI-powered voting agents. Instead of requiring users to manually vote on every proposal, each user would have a personal AI model trained on their messages, opinions, and past decisions. This AI would then vote on their behalf, exactly as the user would. Buterin highlights that the current delegation model is disempowering and leads to voting power being concentrated with a few large token holders. His proposal aims to make DAOs more scalable and truly decentralized. A key aspect is ensuring user privacy and security. These AI agents would operate within secure systems like trusted execution environments, and zero-knowledge proofs could be used to protect voter identity and prevent risks like bribery or coercion. Furthermore, AI agents could automatically handle routine votes, alerting users only for important decisions, and prediction markets could be used to filter out spam proposals. In summary, this AI voting system could fundamentally transform DAO governance by increasing participation, reducing centralization, and maintaining user privacy.

Aave struggles as BGD Labs plans April exit amid governance crisis

BGD Labs, a major service provider for the Aave DAO, announced it will exit by early April, citing concerns over Aave Labs' aggressive push toward centralized control. The team criticized Aave Labs for disregarding existing contributors' expertise and leveraging its influence over brand rights and voting power. BGD Labs, which built much of Aave V3, accused Aave Labs of promoting its own V4 upgrade by criticizing the current version. In response, Aave Labs founder Stani Kulechov assured the community that maintenance would continue and expressed support for retaining BGD under a new security arrangement. The ongoing governance crisis, including previous disputes over revenue sharing and a $50 million funding demand from Aave Labs, has unsettled investors. AAVE’s price dropped 8% following the news, reflecting market uncertainty.

In the Face of Quantum Threats, Bitcoin Core Developers Choose to Ignore

This article examines the perceived indifference of Bitcoin's most influential core developers toward the quantum computing threat. Despite active research from some community members, the key decision-makers—often referred to as the "high priests" of Bitcoin—largely dismiss quantum risk as distant, theoretical, or non-urgent. Key figures like Pieter Wuille acknowledge the issue but see no immediate danger, while others like Peter Todd and Adam Back openly deny its feasibility or relevance in the near term. Developers such as Jonas Nick and researchers like Ethan Heilman and Hunter Beast are actively working on post-quantum solutions, but their efforts lack traction among the top-tier gatekeepers who control protocol changes. The governance structure of Bitcoin, which requires consensus among a small group of influential developers, results in inertia and makes proactive upgrades difficult. Without support from figures like Wuille, Maxwell, or Back, substantive changes to address quantum vulnerabilities are unlikely. The article concludes that quantum mitigation is not a priority for Bitcoin's core development leadership, despite growing external concerns.

Sentient Foundation Officially Established: Committed to Promoting Open Source AGI to Ensure It Benefits All Humanity

Sentient Foundation has officially launched on February 10 as a nonprofit organization dedicated to ensuring that artificial general intelligence (AGI) remains open-source, decentralized, and aligned with human interests. It aims to prevent AGI from being monopolized by a few corporations and instead advocates for a future where this transformative technology benefits all of humanity. The foundation emphasizes that current powerful models like ChatGPT and Gemini are controlled by private entities, risking the concentration of power. It highlights the success of open-source alternatives like DeepSeek and Qwen, which demonstrate that open AI can compete with and even surpass closed models. Sentient Foundation will act as a neutral guardian of the open AGI ecosystem, focusing on key areas such as value alignment and safety, global research collaboration, developer support, inclusive governance, and public advocacy. It draws inspiration from historic open-source successes like Linux, Apache, and Android. Working alongside Sentient Labs, which leads technical research on AI frameworks and models, the foundation ensures that innovations serve the broader goal of open and aligned AGI. It invites researchers, developers, institutions, and policymakers to join its global efforts in promoting transparent, equitable, and beneficial AGI development.

Base Shifts From OP Stack to Unified Stack for Next Phase of Upgrades

Base, a Coinbase-incubated Ethereum layer-2 blockchain, is transitioning from the OP Stack to its own unified software stack called "base/base" to accelerate upgrades and enhance security. While moving away from the OP Stack, Base will continue to receive support from the Optimism Foundation and remain compatible with OP Stack specifications. The new stack, built on open-source components like Reth, simplifies the architecture, making the network easier to update while maintaining safety and decentralization. Base remains a Stage 1 decentralized rollup and is strengthening security with an independent signer, faster withdrawals, improved governance, and stronger protections. The roadmap includes multiple hard forks: Base V1 will implement Ethereum’s Fusaka upgrades and transition to TEE/ZK proofs, while future forks (V2 and V3) aim to improve user interactions and add Ethereum’s Glamsterdam support. Node operators are advised to switch to the new base client for compatibility with upcoming upgrades.

Zcash’s Original Builders Leave ECC to Launch ZODL Independent Development Entity

The original builders of Zcash have officially separated from the Electric Coin Company (ECC) and formed a new independent development organization called ZODL. This split, the most significant change in Zcash's history, follows a governance dispute between ECC and its nonprofit owner, Bootstrap, regarding control, strategic direction, and development autonomy. The entire ECC staff resigned and regrouped under ZODL. The Zcash blockchain has not forked, and ZEC remains unchanged with normal network operation. However, the core development team behind Zcash's privacy technology and the Zashi wallet (now under ZODL) has moved. ECC continues to exist but without its original team. This shift may influence future upgrades, wallet innovation, privacy features, and governance, but the blockchain itself remains unaffected. The long-term impact will depend on coordination between ECC and ZODL.
