It lowers the threshold for DeFi users through one-click BNB unilateral staking and IL protection mechanism. UpTop launched a $8,000 bounty challenge to encourage developers to expand contracts and innovate governance mechanisms around the next generation of liquidity pools. • Bitring is a wearable health platform that combines AI bio-monitoring, on-chain incentives and smart contract insurance. Its core product is a 999 gold smart ring that provides 24-hour health data analysis and on-chain protection. This time, Bitring has set up 10 Genesis smart rings (each worth US$1,199) as development rewards to encourage the construction of AI modules that can identify diet and nutritional analysis.

Odaily News Web3 development platform QuickNode and digital asset institutional data platform Artemis jointly released the Third Quarter On-chain Report. The report found that stablecoin-related activity on blockchain networks has increased significantly. As measured by daily active addresses (DAA), stablecoins emerged as the most popular category, ending the third quarter with an average of over 400,000 daily active addresses. The report notes that DeSocial came to prominence with viral product launches, driven by the friend.tech craze. The potential for social applications at Web2 scale will disrupt current adoption levels. Development activity remains strong only on Optimism’s OP Mainnet, indicating that developers consider EVM scaling solutions to be a critical issue that needs to be addressed in the near future. According to investment data, future trends indicate that games and artificial intelligence products will be the areas where the blockchain ecosystem will see the greatest development in the next few years.
