The Base App, the non-custodial wallet formerly known as Coinbase Wallet, announced it is removing its Farcaster-powered “Talk” feed as it refocuses the app on trading. Coinbase is also sunsetting its Base Creator Rewards program. The Base App will now feature a trading-first feed focused exclusively on tradable assets. Base contributor Jesse Pollak stated that the app was never intended to be a full-fledged Farcaster client, and that removing social content allows the team to fully commit to building the best onchain trading experience. Farcaster users are urged to return to the Farcaster client.
Slice, an Ethereum commerce infrastructure provider, introduced ERC-8128, a standard for signing HTTP requests with Ethereum accounts instead of traditional credentials like API keys or session tokens. It aims to enable stateless, secure web authentication without relying on shared secrets. With ERC-8128, each request is cryptographically signed by the sender’s Ethereum account, binding identity and intent directly to the request content. The approach strengthens security and protects against credential leaks and replay attacks. Services can leverage ERC-8128 to verify identity, confirm eligibility, and accept payments.
ZKsync launched its staking pilot program that rewards ZK token holders who stake their tokens and delegate to an active governance delegate. Built on Tally’s delegate-to-stake infrastructure, the program aims to boost delegated ZK and active voting power. Season 1 runs for three months, with rewards targeting ~3% APR and adjustable up to a 10% maximum based on participation levels. A broader rollout will follow in Season 2.
