🚨🚨🚨 17,332 Solana programs need a rebuild before their next upgrade
Full breakdown: themerkle.com/17332-solana-p…
Starting with #Agave 4.4 in November, Solana will reject new deployments & upgrades built for sBPFv0/v1/v2. Existing programs keep running, but teams must rebuild for #sBPFv3 (use `--arch v3`) to ship fixes.
99.7% of upgradable mainnet programs are still on v0.

🚨 Solana’s new Validator Admission Ticket is biting 🚨
Read more: nulltx.com/solana-validator-…
After Alpenglow, validators need ~0.82 $SOL in their vote account every epoch to stay in. A handful fell short by tiny amounts, one with 137k SOL staked was just 0.003 SOL short.
Marinade updated its delegation rules hours before activation to pull stake off ineligible validators. By epoch 1067, only 0.16% of stake was still affected.

🚨 ENS DAO approved ENSv2 with 1.69M votes from 62 wallets (one against).
Full read: themerkle.com/ens-dao-approv…
Quorum cleared by 69%. Execution ~Oct 27 via 15 contract calls that freeze new v1 .eth registrations and hand control to a renew-only contract.
Brief pause on new names until v2 goes live.

#Sapling stays fully supported. #Orchard is sealed to new deposits but has no shutdown deadline.
The “inaccessible funds” warning in the ZIPs is only a quantum-emergency contingency—not a scheduled close for Sapling or Orchard. Specs still recommend migrating to Ironwood.

🚨 One wallet spent ~$51K on $DIKO, passed a malicious proposal with zero opposition, and drained $1.09M from #Arkadiko’s vaults in minutes.
Full reveal : themerkle.com/how-one-wallet…
Part of the funding came from a similar #StackSwap governance attack two days earlier.

🚨 On-chain receipts confirm $NEAR buyback is automated and live (intents.near → multisig holding ~$10.2M, not burned).
Full on-chain check: themerkle.com/the-on-chain-c…
⚠️ But the $8M figure is lifetime, not Q3. Volume was $10.41B last quarter.

🚨 #Robinhood Chain’s $51M Q3 “win” over Ethereum’s $41M has a big asterisk.
Full reveal: nulltx.com/the-asterisk-on-r…
74% of those fees came from just a 12-day congestion spike. Outside that window, daily revenue was far lower than #Ethereum’s.
The $51M also goes to Robinhood’s sequencer (gross receipts), while most of Ethereum’s fees are burned.
Still a strong debut but the headline is misleading.

🚨 #Cronos v1.8 is live on mainnet with Block-STM parallel execution now embedded in the Cosmos SDK.
Full event breakdown: themerkle.com/cronos-v18-hit…
But the ~20% faster blocks & up to 66% higher throughput claims?
They came from earlier simulations,and with ~3/4 of blocks empty right now (~0.24 tx/block), the throughput gain can't be tested yet. $CRO

🚨 #PancakeSwap’s “The Flip” proposes a 69% $CAKE emission cut (22.5k → 7k/day), but it also removes most v3 + Infinity fee burns.
Data breakdown: nulltx.com/pancakeswaps-69-c…
Result: net weekly deflation would fall ~30% (not speed up). Stage-two timeline to hit the 20% supply cut target looks like years, not 12 months.
Vote is currently ~98% against (mostly large veCAKE holders).

🚨 #Zebec bought back ~40.5M $ZBCN (~$100K) in Q3 from revenue, but the tokens are held in a treasury wallet, not burned. Total supply is unchanged (burn policy paused under ZIP-4).
Full data reveal :
nulltx.com/zebec-zbcn-buybac…
On-chain: tokens arrived Oct 21 (after Q3 ended) from a Crypto.com hot wallet. The same wallet has previously moved ~59M ZBCN out.
Held ≠ burned. Supply unchanged.

🚨 #Chainlink Data Feeds & Streams are now live on #Stellar mainnet.
Full breakdown: themerkle.com/chainlink-orac…
The “$4B+ RWA” claim only clears $4B if you include stablecoins. Per RWA.xyz, non-stablecoin assets sit at ~$3.64B.
Only 9 feeds launched, crypto, stables, gold, and just one #RWA. Spiko, USDY, and BENJI still have no feed.

🚨 Three wallets hold 95% of #Ondo’s BlackRock-branded High Income token (#BLKHIon).
Full breakdown: themerkle.com/three-wallets-…
1,561 holders on #Ethereum. The other ~1,558 wallets combined hold roughly $22K.
Minting started a week before launch. Most of the supply looks like early capital, not organic retail.

🚨 Pumpfun perps on Hyperliquid: the fee split that matters for $PUMP holders
Full breakdown:
nulltx.com/pumpfun-perps-on-…
🟢 On a $10k $BTC perp order:
- Hyperliquid takes ~$4.50 (goes toward HYPE burns)
- Pump.fun can take up to $10 (0.10% builder fee)
#Hyperliquid’s share has a documented path to burns. #Pumpfun’s perps + bridge fees are not currently included in its 50% PUMP buyback formula and the builder address hasn’t been disclosed.

🚨 #Solana’s Alpenglow switch at slot 459,653,000: ~400ms pause (votes only, no user txs), then finality target drops to ~150ms from 12.8s. #TowerBFT retires.
What actually changes (and what doesn’t):
nulltx.com/what-solanas-alpe…
Key notes from the piece:
- Slot times were already reduced to ~200ms earlier.
- Fast one-round finality needs ≥80% stake ready.
- Votes move off-chain; Rotor phase comes later. #alpenglow
