FIDELITY FILES FOR SPOT ETHEREUM ETF, SAYS APPROVAL WOULD BE 'MAJOR
WIN' FOR US INVESTORS (1 MINUTE READ) [5]

Fidelity has filed its own application for a spot Ethereum ETF. The
move, which the firm says aims to offer safeguards to US investors
dealing in the crypto space, comes in the wake of a court ruling
criticizing the SEC's inconsistency regarding crypto ETFs. The SEC has
so far permitted futures-based products but has rejected spot crypto
ETFs.

JUMP TRADING, WORMHOLE PART WAYS AMID TOUGH CRYPTO MARKET (1 MINUTE
READ) [6]

Jump Trading has amicably parted ways with its crypto project,
Wormhole. Several key figures from the project will operate Wormhole
independently. This move is in line with Jump Trading's continuing
withdrawal from the digital asset space. The exact reason for the
separation or the number of employees who left due to it is not yet
known.

INNOVATION & LAUNCHES

ZKP2P: THE FIRST TRUSTLESS FIAT-TO-CRYPTO ONRAMP POWERED BY
ZERO-KNOWLEDGE PROOFS (2 MINUTE READ) [7]

ZKP2P, the first trustless fiat-to-crypto onramp powered by
zero-knowledge proofs, has been launched in alpha. The platform will
offer swift, affordable, and permissionless conversions from USD to
USDC, with a limit of $250 every six hours. Built on a decentralized
front end, it allows any smart contract to take liquidity. Users can
opt-in for its proving service but it's not required. Future plans
include expanding to more payment services and gasless onboarding.

FHE-ROLLUPS: SCALING CONFIDENTIAL SMART CONTRACTS ON ETHEREUM AND
BEYOND (25 MINUTE READ) [8]

Fhenix’s newly released whitepaper details a more scalable solution
for executing confidential smart contracts known as Fully Homomorphic
Encryption (FHE) Rollups. This system, which enhances the efficiency
of confidential smart contracts, doesn't require all nodes in a
network to execute FHE computations to reach a consensus over the
encrypted state, unlike current methods. Fhenix's design adopts an
optimistic rollup approach, avoiding the computational penalty caused
by current verifiable FHE techniques. This development could enable
the most commonly used smart contract ecosystems to be augmented with
confidential smart contracts.

focusing on professional NFT traders' needs, has led to improved
overall NFT market efficiency and liquidity. The next step for Blur in
improving token utility might be governance voting with discussions
about using platform profits for token buybacks and burns.
