RaveDAO’s $RAVE launch turned heads after early buyers entered near $0.20 and the price quickly climbed close to $0.60, marking a clean 3x move. Unlike many recent launches, the chart expanded upward from the start, allowing real participants to enter instead of insiders dumping. This fair structure rewarded the community and boosted confidence. In a market filled with post-launch sell-offs, RaveDAO’s approach stands out as a refreshing and trust-building debut.

Ethereum’s community has proposed ERC-8092, a draft standard for creating “associated accounts” across blockchains. It allows two accounts to publicly declare, prove, and revoke their relationship using cryptographic signatures. The proposal supports practical uses like sub-account inheritance, delegated authorization, and reputation tracking. By working with EIP-7930, it also enables cross-chain compatibility. If adopted, ERC-8092 could simplify identity management and interactions across multiple blockchains, making decentralized applications more secure and flexible.

Exactly 15 years ago, on December 13, 2010, Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto posted his final message and disappeared from public view. A day earlier, on December 12, he released Bitcoin version 0.3.19, which included important fixes to protect the network from attacks. After this update, Satoshi quietly stepped away, leaving Bitcoin fully decentralized with no leaders or central control. This decision allowed the community to guide Bitcoin’s growth, helping it evolve into a major global asset built on open and permissionless innovation.

OKX found clear evidence that multiple accounts were working together to use large OM holdings as collateral to borrow USDT and artificially push up the price of MANTRA OM. The exchange’s risk systems detected the activity early, and after the accounts failed to cooperate, OKX stepped in and took control. A sudden price crash followed, leading to major losses that were fully covered by OKX’s Security Fund. All evidence has been shared with regulators and law enforcement, and several lawsuits are now ongoing, with third party data suggesting external perpetuals trading triggered the crash.

Research firm Kaiko reports that crypto market liquidity is increasingly concentrated in just a few centralized exchanges, with Binance leading the pack. This concentration could increase risks during volatile periods, potentially causing ripple effects across the market. The report also highlights ongoing challenges for Binance, including structural, operational, and legal uncertainties, lack of formal regulation, a U.S. conviction for anti–money laundering violations, and the absence of an EU MiCA license, raising concerns about the exchange’s long-term stability and its impact on the broader market.

RaveDAO made a powerful entry as $RAVE launched simultaneously across major exchanges, including Binance Alpha, Kraken, Bitget, MEXC, Gate, and Aster. Such coordinated listings are rare for new projects and signal strong preparation and demand. Early traders are already active, and interest from key Binance Labs members has added to the buzz. With momentum building fast, RaveDAO has firmly placed itself in the market spotlight.

Brazil’s leading asset manager, Itaú Asset, with $185 billion under management, advises allocating 1% to 3% of investment portfolios to Bitcoin in 2026. This move targets diversification amid Brazil’s volatile real and inflation pressures, shielding against fiat risks while complementing stocks and bonds. Analysts call it the ideal “sweet spot” for capturing Bitcoin’s growth with minimal downside, marking a key step in institutional crypto embrace.
