• MegaETH real-time data streams.

• Introducing a private multisig.

• Base introduces creator coins.

• SharpLink raises $76.5 million.

MegaETH, in collaboration with Chainlink, introduced native, real-time data streams on MegaETH. The integration embeds Chainlink Data Streams directly into MegaETH’s execution environment through a native precompile, enabling smart contracts to access live, high-frequency market data with sub-second latency. The release enables CEX-level performance for DeFi, allowing real-time updates for perpetuals, prediction markets, and stablecoins. By combining Chainlink’s oracle networks with MegaETH’s 10ms block times and 100,000 TPS architecture, the integration establishes a new standard for real-time DeFi, bridging the speed gap between decentralized and traditional financial systems.

Solidity maintainer Artem Chystiakov released a paper introducing a privacy-preserving, zero-knowledge (ZK) multisignature wallet for Ethereum. The system preserves anonymity and confidentiality in multisig approvals and voting while eliminating centralized trust. The architecture includes two smart contracts, ZK circuits, and relayers to support private and verifiable onchain operations. The design replaces interactive key-sharing with deterministic derivation and ensures all cryptographic actions are ZK-verifiable and auditable onchain without leaking private data.

SharpLink Gaming, Inc. raised a $76.5 million from a direct offering of 4.5 million shares at $17.00 per share. SharpLink is also offering institutional nvestors a 90-day option to purchase up to 4.5 million additional shares at $17.50, which could generate an extra $78.8 million if fully exercised. Co-CEO Joseph Chalom said the premium-priced financing is accretive to shareholders, allowing SharpLink to expand its ETH holdings and increase ETH-per-share value. The company currently holds over 840k ETH.

• Devcon SEA releases its schedule.

• Franklin Templeton launches BENJI on Base.

• Optimism supports ERC-7683.

• Zircuit airdrop for EIGEN holders.

Devcon released the schedule for Devcon VII, the largest Ethereum developer conference, set to take place in Bangkok, Thailand, from November 12-15. The event will feature more than 300 hours of talks, panels, and workshops covering topics such as security, layer 2, applied cryptography, real-world Ethereum, coordination, core protocol, and developer experience. Alongside the schedule, Devcon released Devcon Passport, a mobile-first Progressive Web App that allows users to sign in with Ethereum, customize their agenda, and receive event notifications. Devcon Week will run from November 9-17, with an expected attendance of over 12,000 people, making it the biggest Devcon to date.

Franklin Templeton launched its OnChain U.S. Government Money Fund (FOBXX) on Base, offering tokenized access to U.S. Treasury securities and repurchase agreements. Shares, trading under the ticker BENJI, maintain a stable price of $1 per share and currently provide a 7-Day Effective Yield of about 4.7%. Accessible to both retail and institutional investors via the Franklin Templeton platform, the fund has a market capitalization of more than $400 million and supports tokenized assets across seven networks. Base is the second-largest Layer 2 network by TVL with nearly $8 billion in assets, according to L2Beat.

Optimism announced support for ERC-7683, a cross-chain intents standard co-developed by Across Protocol and Uniswap Labs. ERC-7683 allows order fillers from any compatible system to fulfill user intents by adhering to a unified order structure. Optimism is implementing the standard on top of its native interoperability architecture.By adopting ERC-7683, Optimism extends native interoperability to order fillers in the broader Ethereum ecosystem. Together, ERC-7683 and Superchain Interoperability help enhance the speed, security, and cost-efficiency of cross-chain transfers for users.

Zircuit, an EVM-compatible ZK-Rollup, has announced the Zircuit Fairdrop for EIGEN token holders and stakers. Users who held or staked a minimum of 3 EIGEN tokens as of October 8, 2024, qualify for a share of 2% of the ZRC token supply, with each eligible wallet receiving an equal allocation. Zircuit is an LRT re-staking protocol that aggregates LRT deposits into a shared staking pool.

• Powdr Labs releases powdrVM 0.1.

Base activated fault proofs on its Layer 2 network, introducing permissionless output proposals and permissionless challenges. With output proposals, anyone can submit claims about the chain’s state, while challenges allow anyone to dispute fraudulent withdrawals. Successful challengers earn the bonds of invalid claims, incentivizing community participation. The upgrade brings Base closer to Stage 1 decentralization, where rollups operate with working proof systems and maintain a multi-sig override mechanism. For now, upgrades require approval from contributors across Base and Optimism, but the transition to a Security Council will complete the step of Stage 1. Looking ahead, Base will work toward Stage 2 by adopting a multi-proof system. As outlined by Vitalik, Stage 2 marks full decentralization, where the Security Council will no longer have the power to alter the chain’s state root.

Bungee introduced its chain-abstraction swaps to beta, allowing users to perform actions across multiple chains. As a global liquidity marketplace, Bungee leverages gasless signatures, allowing users to execute swaps without the need for bridging native gas tokens. The beta release smart contracts are yet to undergo audits. Bungee Protocol runs on Socket Protocol, a chain-abstraction framework that uses Modular Orderflow Actions (MOFA) to execute user requests. Offchain execution agents such as sequencers, validators, solvers, and keepers—compete to fulfill user requests, ensuring optimal performance while covering native gas fees.

Fluid, a liquidity layer developed by Instadapp, launched the Fluid DEX to mainnet. Fluid DEX is a decentralized exchange focused on maximizing capital efficiency. It introduces innovative features like Smart Debt and Smart Collateral, enabling users to convert their debt into trading liquidity by deploying it as collateral within AMM pools. By doing so, users can earn trading and lending fees to offset borrowing costs—and in some cases, even profit from borrowing. Leading DEX aggregators, including Kyber, CoWSwap, Paraswap, and 1inch, are set to integrate support for Fluid DEX.

Powdr Labs released powdrVM 0.1, a specialized virtual machine designed for proving computations using zero-knowledge proofs. powdrVM 0.1 is fully compatible with Rust and supports multiple ZK proving systems, including Plonky3 and Halo2. Developers can build complex ZK applications and generate proofs for long-running computations. Powdr Labs is a project spun-out of the Ethereum Foundation focused on ZK research and tooling.
