Inside Solana’s governance as Alpenglow passes

Inside Solana’s governance as Alpenglow passes

The post Inside Solana’s governance as Alpenglow passes appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. This is a segment from the 0xResearch newsletter. To read full editions, subscribe. Last week, we dove deep into SIMD-326 (Alpenglow), which proposes a new consensus protocol for Solana. The headline impact of Alpenglow is a 100x reduction in Solana’s finality time, from ~12.8 seconds to around 150ms. A validator-signaling vote for SIMD-326 took place between epochs 840 (starting Aug. 27) and 842 (ending today), with a preliminary stake participation rate of 51% as of writing. SIMD-326 will pass, with ~99% of non-abstaining votes in favor. With Alpenglow’s voting period coming to a close, it’s a good time for a refresher on how Solana governance works.  Solana’s onchain governance is meant to signal community sentiment rather than automatic enforcement of changes. In other words, social consensus is the final arbiter, with the real decision point resting with validators and developers who must collectively agree to deploy and run the new software. A key stakeholder in this process is the Anza team, which must design and roll out changes in the Agave client via feature gates.   With this context in mind, all Solana Improvement Documents (SIMDs) formally begin as written proposals on Solana’s GitHub. In this stage, the community and core contributors can openly discuss and adjust variables before a SIMD goes into a vote, implement it without requiring one, or outright reject it before that happens. Forum discussions play a crucial role in Solana governance by enabling structured, thoughtful debate on proposals​ and their potential effects.  Solana’s onchain governance model is akin to a representative democracy in the sense that validators vote on behalf of stakers, who are free to delegate their staked SOL to any validator. Each validator’s voting power is proportional to the stake delegated to them, and validators can even split their vote weight among distinct…

The Milwaukee Bucks Have A Crunch At Bottom Of Roster

The Milwaukee Bucks Have A Crunch At Bottom Of Roster

The post The Milwaukee Bucks Have A Crunch At Bottom Of Roster appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. NEW YORK, NEW YORK – JUNE 19: Giannis Antetokounmpo #34 and Thanasis Antetokounmpo #43 of the Milwaukee Bucks celebrate the win of game seven of the Eastern Conference second round at Barclays Center on June 19, 2021 in the Brooklyn borough of New York City. The Milwaukee Bucks defeated the Brooklyn Nets 115-111 in overtime to win the series. NOTE TO USER: User expressly acknowledges and agrees that, by downloading and or using this photograph, User is consenting to the terms and conditions of the Getty Images License Agreement. (Photo by Elsa/Getty Images) Getty Images On August 31, Thanasis Antetokounmpo announced he was re-signing with the Milwaukee Bucks. He missed all of last season after tearing his Achilles in a workout shortly following Milwaukee’s early playoff exit. Antetokounmpo, originally a second-round pick of the New York Knicks in 2014, has spent most of his career in Milwaukee, averaging 2.4 points and 1.6 rebounds per game from 2019–24. Critics can argue he’s always been a fringe NBA player, even in his prime. Now, at 33 years old and coming off a significant injury, it’s hard to imagine he’d have another NBA contract without being the older brother of Milwaukee’s franchise cornerstone, Giannis Antetokounmpo. Still, Thanasis has value in ways that don’t show up on the stat sheet. He’s well-respected in the locker room, works relentlessly, and brings infectious energy. Coaches and teammates alike appreciate his presence. At this stage, his role resembles Udonis Haslem’s final years in Miami: part player, part culture-setter, part assistant coach. The challenge for Milwaukee’s front office is figuring out which NBA-quality player he displaces. His reported guaranteed contract gives the Bucks 15 fully guaranteed deals for next season, officially creating a roster crunch at the bottom of their depth chart. Before his signing, Milwaukee had 14…

Sunnie Redefines The Kids Snack, Making Nutrition Fun, Delicious And Accessible For Families

Sunnie Redefines The Kids Snack, Making Nutrition Fun, Delicious And Accessible For Families

The post Sunnie Redefines The Kids Snack, Making Nutrition Fun, Delicious And Accessible For Families appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Lunchables solve an important dilemma for parents: the satisfying solution of convenience. And for kids, they’re interactive, making them not just practical, but able to provide the feeling of solving a puzzle, all while eating. The concept is evergreen. But the food itself–concerning for human health. Katy Tucker and Lisette Howard, two Southern California moms who wanted better for their children, have taken control of a new narrative, providing a new solution that’s uncompromising on ingredient integrity while adding nutrition to a child’s diet. They’re working diligently to get the product of this mindset, Sunnie, into as many families’ pantries as possible. Today, Sunnie snack pack dippers, like Flatbread Pizza and S’more, increase their presence not just in natural grocery stores, but today entering 500 Target stores in every state across the US. Individual bags of its Sea Salt and new Cheddar crackers also enter Whole Foods Market shelves across the nation, Sunnie Snacks cofounders Katy Tucker and Lisette Howard share with me. “We don’t want parents ever to feel guilty for what they buy,” Tucker tells me. “We are providing another option…making sure that there’s room for everybody in the different journeys they might be on in their clean eating or cleaner products life cycle.” Sunnie cofounders Lisette Howard (l) and Katy Tucker (r) Sunnie Moms On A Mission Not only do Tucker and Howard each have three kids under 12, but they became friends in the first place via being moms–meeting 12 years ago at a group for their then-babies. As younger moms, they each wanted to feel fulfilled in ways they hadn’t yet realized. “There was something pushing me to say ‘this isn’t your life,’” Howard says about eventually leaving her corporate job. Similarly, Tucker left her 80-hour a week gig when she got pregnant, hoping to…

Why has billionaire Sun Yuchen set his sights on Xiushan Mining, and what hidden secrets lie behind it?

Why has billionaire Sun Yuchen set his sights on Xiushan Mining, and what hidden secrets lie behind it?

The post Why has billionaire Sun Yuchen set his sights on Xiushan Mining, and what hidden secrets lie behind it? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. While traditional cryptocurrency mining remains a challenging industry, Xiushan Mining is quietly revolutionizing the sector. In August 2025, Xiushan Mining announced the launch of a new mobile app, providing multi-currency cloud mining services for major cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Ripple (XRP). The app is now available for download, allowing users to start earning daily rewards anytime, anywhere, without any hardware investment. Xiushan Mining’s Mission: Breaking Down Technical Barriers and Making Mining Accessible to Everyone In the past, mining was almost exclusively the domain of “tech enthusiasts”: from purchasing mining equipment and deploying power systems to operations and maintenance, and hash rate fluctuations, the complex process and high costs often deterred ordinary investors. However, Xiushan Mining’s cloud mining app offers a more convenient alternative—users simply register on their mobile device, select a contract, and remotely access computing power from a data center to begin earning daily rewards. Whether it’s BTC’s mainstream consensus value, ETH’s smart contract foundation, or the practical application of currencies like XRP in the global payment system, the combination of these three cryptocurrencies not only represents the three core directions the market is looking at for the future of digital assets, but also provides users with more flexible investment options. Multi-currency Support: Flexible Strategies, Lower Risk A major highlight of this update is support for multi-currency mining for BTC, ETH, DOGE, LTC, XRP, SOL, and USDT (TRC-20/ERC-20). Users can flexibly choose BTC, ETH, or XRP as their target mining currency based on their personal preferences and market trends. Importantly, all operations are seamlessly completed within the app: no blockchain technical knowledge, currency conversion, or complex wallet connection required. For investors seeking to diversify their risk or holding multiple currencies simultaneously, this model undoubtedly offers greater flexibility. During market fluctuations, the varying yield patterns of…

Metaplanet targets 100,000 Bitcoin by 2026 and 210,000 by 2027. Metaplanet shares rose 4% in Tokyo on September 2, 2025, after shareholders approved new financing measures.

Metaplanet Stock Shareholders Back New Funding Steps It is worth mentioning that Metaplanet Inc. saw its stock climb 4%.

The second allowed shareholder meetings to take place without a fixed location, opening the door for virtual-only gatherings.

Why Analysts Rank Ozak AI, Cardano, and TRX as the Best Low-Cap Bets of 2025

Why Analysts Rank Ozak AI, Cardano, and TRX as the Best Low-Cap Bets of 2025

The post Why Analysts Rank Ozak AI, Cardano, and TRX as the Best Low-Cap Bets of 2025 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto investors seeking high-upside opportunities are increasingly turning to low-cap coins with strong growth potential. Analysts have highlighted Ozak AI, Cardano (ADA), and TRX as standout bets for 2025, citing a combination of innovation, adoption, and presale or market momentum. These projects offer unique use cases, active ecosystems, and potential for significant returns, making them attractive options for early investment ahead of the next bull cycle. Ozak AI – AI-Powered High-Upside Presale Ozak AI, currently in its 5th OZ presale stage at $0.01, has already raised over $2.5 million and sold more than 830 million tokens. The project combines blockchain technology with AI-powered prediction agents, enabling faster and smarter trading decisions, portfolio optimization, and on-chain intelligence. Analysts are optimistic that early presale investors could see up to 100x returns, making Ozak AI one of the most talked-about presale projects of 2025. Security and credibility are reinforced through CertiK and inner audits, while listings on CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko enhance market visibility. Strategic partnerships with Dex3, HIVE, and SINT similarly make bigger Ozak AI’s surroundings, providing real-world global application and adoption capacity. Its tokenomics encompass a one-month cliff accompanied by six-month linear vesting, ensuring long-term price retention and investor confidence. Cardano—A Low-Cap Leader with Strong Fundamentals Cardano (ADA), presently trading at $0.813, remains one of the most respected low-cap tasks due to its peer-reviewed blockchain development and cognizance of scalability, sustainability, and interoperability.  Analysts factor in Cardano’s developing ecosystem of smart contracts, DeFi applications, and NFT projects as key drivers of long-term increase. Its sluggish-but-regular adoption technique may not promise immediately explosive returns; however, ADA’s stability and institutional interest make it a strong low-cap funding for 2025. TRX—High-Speed Blockchain with Growing Adoption TRX (Tron), trading at $0.336, is another low-cap coin that analysts view favorably for 2025. The Tron network is known…

DSW Repositioning Aims To Prove It’s More Than A Place To Buy Shoes

DSW Repositioning Aims To Prove It’s More Than A Place To Buy Shoes

The post DSW Repositioning Aims To Prove It’s More Than A Place To Buy Shoes appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The mega show emporium DSW is launching a brand tagline and outlook for fall. Photo Courtesy of DSW As the saying goes, you never get a second chance to make a first impression. For DSW, the moderately priced shoe emporium that boasts close to 500 stores, that’s hyperbole and a platitude. For the brand whose initials DSW stand for Designer Shoe Warehouse, 2025 brings a fresh approach to its brand via a catchy tagline with a call to action that prompts customers to approach the store with a fresh perspective. “Let Us Surprise You”, which launches today, aims to give its shoppers a new perception of the 34-year-old shoe store. Speaking from the brand’s Columbus, Ohio headquarters, DSW President Laura Davis explained the shift as the brand took stock post-pandemic. “We evaluated who we are and what the emotional identity was,” Davis said via Zoom, adding, “Our customers told us we lacked an emotional connection; it was very transactional, and the joy of shoes is so much.” Thus, the goal was to establish the DSW emotional connection to attract new customers while retaining its core customers, especially its VIP Loyalty members. (As one of the first to have this type of program, DSW boasts customers enrolled for 10 to 15 years.) Inside a newly revamped DSW store. Photo Courtesy of DSW “They love coming into DSW and exploring,” Davis noted. Working with Los Angeles-based creative agency Crispin, the brand took a deep dive into the brand, including in-depth surveys and, in some cases, visiting the shoe collections of top shoppers at their homes. “We asked them, ‘How do you get dressed? ‘How do you think about self-expression? How do you get excited about shoes, bringing a differentiating factor to your wardrobe? Shoes let you explore this, especially with customers who…

Tesla lands on the chopping block as India mulls hefty tax on luxury EVs

Tesla lands on the chopping block as India mulls hefty tax on luxury EVs

A tax panel in India has called for a sharp increase in consumer levies on high end electric vehicles that may have a bearing on sales for automakers like Tesla, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and BYD, according to a government document. The steep levies target vehicles priced above $46,000, according to the document, which comes as the government is pushing for Indians to buy domestic products as the US imposed high tariffs strain trade relations between the two countries. The panel’s proposals align with India’s PM The directive comes as Prime Minister Narendra Modi is looking at reforming the country’s tax system. Currently, India taxes all electric cars at 5%. Now, the Indian government has recommended hefty cuts in goods and services tax (GST) that could make everything from shampoos to electronics cheaper. A key panel that has been tasked with coming up with rate suggestions to the country’s GST Council is in support of sweeping cuts to many items in line with the Prime Minister’s overhaul. The document that details the recommendations however shows that the panel has called for raising taxes on electric vehicles. According to the document, the panel has proposed raising GST rate to 18% from the current 5% on electric vehicles that are priced at between 2 million and 4 million rupees which is equivalent to $23,000 to $46,000. For cars that are above $46,000, the panel has also proposed raising the tax to 28% arguing that these vehicles are for the “upper segment” of the society and largely imported and not manufactured locally. According to a government source familiar with discussions and cited by Reuters, the government has decided to do away with the 28% tax rate, leaving the GST Council with two options. The first is to increase the tax on electric vehicles to 18% while the second option is to put them in a newly planned 40% category that was created for certain high-end goods. Foreign automakers will feel the pinch in India The GST Council is expected to review the proposal at a meeting scheduled for September 3 to 4. The council is led by the federal finance minister and has members from all Indian states. Meanwhile, in response to the Reuters article, the Nifty Auto index went down as much as 0.05% as local automakers Mahindra and Mahindra fell 3%. Tata Motors dropped 1.2%. While the EV market in India is still small, accounting for 5% of total cars sold in April to July this year, its growth has been rapid. EV sales in the country surged 93% to 15,500 units during that same period. “The uptake of electric vehicles is increasing, and while the low rate of 5% is to incentivise faster adoption of electric vehicles, it is also important to signal that higher-priced EVs can be taxed at higher rates,” said the document, detailing the tax panel’s recommendations. With the latest proposal in the pipeline, domestic electric vehicle makers like Mahindra and Tata Motors may be affected, although their offerings above the 2-million-rupee range are limited. However, foreign electric vehicle makers that have luxury offerings will be hit the hardest. For instance, Tesla recently launched its Model Y in India with a base price of $65,000, while Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and BYD also offer high end electric vehicles. For Tesla, which entered the Indian market in July, it has already received fewer orders than it anticipated. The firm has recorded orders just above 600 since its launch in India. The company plans to deliver 300-500 units from its Shanghai plant in 2025, with the first batch expected this month, targeting cities like Mumbai, Delhi, Pune, and Gurugram. In July, Tata Motors led Indian EV market commanding about 40% market share while Mahindra followed at 18%. BYD holds 3% while BMW and Mercedes account for a combined 2%. Don’t just read crypto news.
