BlockBeats news, on December 5, Layer1 blockchain peaq, which focuses on the Machine Economy, recently released a brand new video featuring a Web3-native robot co-owned by the community, showcasing peaq's vision for a community-driven future robot ecosystem. The robot in the video, Milo, has an exclusive Peaq ID, which can be understood as its on-chain identity card. With this identity, it can interact with different applications within the peaq ecosystem. Robot Milo earns income by completing tasks, and the rewards are sent directly to its on-chain wallet; at the same time, its work trajectory and daily processes are fully recorded on-chain, and users can interact with it using peaq tokens. This video clearly outlines peaq's vision of a "community-owned" ecosystem.

Odaily Planet Daily news: Liquid Capital posted on X stating, “After the Ethereum Fusaka upgrade, the blob base fee skyrocketed by 15 million times. The core reason is that EIP-7918 introduced a ‘minimum fee mechanism’ for blobs—previously, there was no minimum limit on blob fees, so they were stuck at 1 wei (almost free) for a long time, resulting in nodes shouldering the costs of KZG verification and more without reasonable returns. After the upgrade, blob fees must be ≥ 1/15.258 of the L1 execution base fee, directly anchoring fees to the real network cost. This design allows prices to reflect actual resource consumption (preventing L2s from using network resources for free), and also uses price fluctuations to regulate blob traffic and prevent congestion, while PeerDAS technology increases blob storage capacity; this

PANews, December 5—According to Jintou, Joanne Hsu, Director of the University of Michigan's Consumer Survey, stated that the preliminary December consumer sentiment index rose by 2.3 points to 53.3, an increase within the margin of error. This month's growth is mainly concentrated among younger consumer groups. Although views on current conditions have changed little, expectations have improved—personal financial expectations rose by 13%, and the trend of improvement is seen across all age, income, education, and political orientation groups. However, the December personal finance expectations index is still nearly 12% lower than at the beginning of the year. Labor market expectations have improved slightly but remain relatively sluggish. Consumers believe some indicators have improved slightly compared to November, but overall sentiment remains generally cautious, with the burden of high prices continuing to be cited as a major ongoing pressure. Looking ahead, one-year inflation expectations fell from 4.5% in November to 4.1% in December, the lowest level since January 2025.

Odaily Planet Daily News: Kevin Hassett, the Director of the White House National Economic Council and a leading candidate to become the next Federal Reserve Chair, reiterated on Friday his expectation that Fed policymakers will cut interest rates at next week's meeting. "Now is a good time for the Fed to cautiously cut rates again," he said on Fox Business Channel. He predicted that as the economy recovers from the recent federal government shutdown and new factories come online, there will be an economic boom in early 2026. Hassett also publicly supported Treasury Secretary Besant's proposal to add a residency requirement for regional Fed presidents. Hassett said, "The reason we established all these regional Feds was to ensure a federal system where regions with different concerns could all have a voice at the decision-making level." Besant said on Wednesday that she would push for new rules requiring candidates for regional Fed presidents to have lived in their district for at least three years—a measure the Trump administration accuses the Fed of exceeding...

Odaily Planet Daily reports that Eli Ben-Sasson, CEO of StarkWare and co-founder of Zcash, stated on the X platform that in his first conversation with Michael Saylor, founder and executive chairman of Strategy, he explained Starknet's mission to promote the development of the Bitcoin economy. In addition, another topic they discussed was privacy. Saylor believes that Bitcoin should not have privacy features, or at least should not adopt a privacy model similar to Zcash, as this would give sovereign states a reason to ban it. Ben-Sasson disagrees. Ben-Sasson believes that it is possible to balance both, i.e., to provide privacy protection while allowing for key viewing. They also exchanged views on OPCAT. Saylor is concerned that changes

According to F2pool data reported by BlockBeats on December 5, the total Bitcoin network hashrate dropped by 18.68% this week, now down to 927.57 EH/s; during the same period, the price of Bitcoin rose by 8.34%.

The proposal to ban state-level artificial intelligence legislation, promoted by U.S. President Trump, failed to pass in Congress, increasing the risks for the White House and the AI affairs director. Although Congress refused to include relevant provisions in the defense policy bill, the White House has discussed reissuing an executive order to take precedence over state legislation and may establish an "AI Litigation Task Force" to address state laws.

On the Polymarket platform, a trader earned nearly $1 million by accurately predicting the 2025 Google search rankings, sparking controversy over insider trading in prediction markets. The trader, with the wallet address "0xafEe" (formerly known as "AlphaRaccoon"), successfully predicted the outcomes of almost all Google search trend markets, including some obscure options. The trader's biggest win came from correctly predicting the "Yes" option that d4vd (a 20-year-old singer) would be the most searched person in 2025, turning a $10,647 bet into nearly $200,000. At the same time, he also made significant profits by betting on the "No" option for figures such as Bianca Censori, Pope Leo XIV, and Trump.

It adopts a real-time bank-linked reserve proof mechanism and is aimed at payments, remittances, and institutional users.

Bitcoin has continued to face pressure during its month-long downtrend and has once again failed to break through a key trendline. The lack of clear bullish signals in the macro market keeps Bitcoin's short-term outlook uncertain. However, on-chain data shows that investors have begun to accelerate accumulation at lower price levels. According to Glassnode data, over the past week, more than 23,385 BTC (worth over $2.15 billion) have been withdrawn from exchanges, driving exchange reserves down to their lowest level since January 2021. Exchange outflows typically indicate an increase in long-term holding intentions and a reduction in selling pressure, which helps support a potential rebound.

According to the latest data from Santiment, social sentiment among XRP investors has dropped to its lowest point since October. Meanwhile, the price of XRP remains under pressure, recently falling to $1.92 and approaching this year's lows. While sentiment for Bitcoin is gradually returning to neutral, negative sentiment toward XRP is rapidly accumulating, making it a focal point in the market. Over the past two months, the price of XRP has dropped more than 30%, a year-over-year decrease of about 9%. Against the backdrop of a strong start to Q4 2025, XRP's trend has shifted from optimism to a deep correction. Previous sentiment peaks occurred on September 13, November 8, and November 30, during which XRP's price repeatedly touched the $2.45–$3.20 range and briefly entered the "greed zone." However, in the most recent downturn, social sentiment has shifted to intense panic, with the latest readings even lower than the panic level seen on November 21.

JPMorgan's latest analysis points out that although the US stablecoin market is expanding rapidly under the impetus of the GENIUS Act, its grand goal of "boosting demand for US short-term Treasuries" may fall far short of policymakers' expectations. Since the act was passed in July, the total supply of stablecoins has increased by over $50 billion, surpassing $300 billion in scale, but it is still far from the White House's previous target of $2-4 trillion by 2028–2030. JPMorgan's Head of US Short-Term Rate Strategy, Teresa Ho, stated that while stablecoins have strong growth momentum, it is "unrealistic" to expect them to grow to several trillion dollars within a few years. The bank expects that in the next few years, the stablecoin market size may reach about $700 billion, mainly limited by current laws prohibiting the issuance of interest-bearing stablecoins—a restriction that weakens the core driver of demand growth.

ChainCatcher news, the topic of comparing the valuations of Ethereum and Amazon is causing heated discussion on X. Santiago, founder of Inversion Capital, believes that Ethereum is overvalued. He stated that ETH's price-to-sales ratio (valuation of $380 billion, annual revenue of $1 billion) is much higher than Amazon's; even during the internet bubble, Amazon's price-to-sales ratio never exceeded 28 times. The price Ethereum holders pay for every $1 of revenue is about 146 times what Amazon investors paid back then. He believes Amazon is also a successful network. Whether it's a company or a network, its pricing depends on the economic benefits it generates (revenue and cash flow), and TVL, collateralized assets, or settlement volume are not revenue. Ethereum treasury company SharpLink, on the other hand, stated that traditional valuation models do not apply to Ethereum: Ama

On Thursday evening, global risk assets remained generally stable as traders awaited the release of a key inflation indicator—the core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) index—on Friday. This data will directly affect the Federal Reserve's interest rate decision on December 10, and the market currently expects an 87% probability of a 25-basis-point rate cut. In US stock futures, Dow Jones and S&P 500 index futures were nearly flat, while Nasdaq futures rose 0.1%. The core PCE for September is expected to increase by 2.9% year-over-year, marking the 55th consecutive month above the Fed’s 2% target, which further increases uncertainty around the policy path.

U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded a net outflow of $194.6 million on Thursday, marking the largest single-day outflow since November 20, intensifying short-term risk-off sentiment in the market. According to SoSoValue data, BlackRock's IBIT led the outflow list with a single-day outflow of $112.9 million; Fidelity's FBTC saw $54.2 million in outflows, while VanEck's HODL, Grayscale's GBTC, and Bitwise's BITB also continued their capital outflow trends. This outflow continued Wednesday's net outflow of $14.9 million, accompanied by a persistent decline in trading volume—total ETF turnover on Thursday fell to $3.1 billion, down significantly from $4.2 billion on Wednesday and $5.3 billion on Tuesday. This "weak volume and price" structure further reflects a rise in market wait-and-see sentiment.

BlockBeats News, December 5th—Farcaster founder Dan Romero announced that House, the first new project presale on the Clanker platform, sold out within 30 seconds. Screenshots show that the hard cap for this presale was only 20 ETH. However, the community has called this presale a “disaster.” The reason is that Clanker used an old version of the presale contract released earlier this year, allowing a whale to snipe the presale and acquire 16 ETH (80%) of the allocation. In addition, there was no limit on the participation amount per wallet, which also led to the allocation being dominated by a single party. In response, Dan Romero stated that the sniping address will only be able to claim tokens after 7 days, and promised that the next presale will use a permissioned process to ensure fairness. At the time of writing, H

PANews, December 5—According to PeckShieldAlert, the stablecoin project USPD has suffered a major security breach, resulting in a loss of approximately $1 million. USPD's official team confirmed that the protocol was exploited, with the attacker minting tokens without authorization and draining liquidity. The team has urgently warned users to immediately revoke all token approvals for the USPD contract. The USPD protocol has confirmed it was hit by a "CPIMP" attack. During the deployment phase, the attacker front-ran the initialization of the proxy via Multicall3, seized admin privileges, and disguised themselves as an audited implementation contract. The team stated that the issue was not a contract logic bug; the attacker concealed their access for several months before upgrading the proxy, minting about 98M USPD, and transferring around 232

A federal district judge in New York has recently ruled that OpenAI must hand over approximately 20 million anonymized ChatGPT user logs to The New York Times and other plaintiffs, marking a significant development in the closely watched AI copyright lawsuit. The order rejects OpenAI's attempt to limit the scope of discovery and emphasizes that these logs are crucial for assessing whether ChatGPT has reproduced copyrighted content. The New York Times sued OpenAI in December 2023, alleging unauthorized use of news content to train its models, while OpenAI countersued in January this year, claiming the media outlet "did not tell the whole truth." This ruling further intensifies the conflict between the two parties over copyright, data governance, and the legality of AI training data.

Foresight News reports, citing Bloomberg, that Polymarket has been recruiting new employees for its internal market-making team, which may compete with clients on the company's exchange, despite similar functions having drawn criticism for its main competitors. According to people familiar with the matter, Polymarket has recently been in talks with traders, including sports bettors, about joining its new department. These individuals requested anonymity as the plans are internal. Kalshi already operates a similar department to what Polymarket is building, called Kalshi Trading, which bids on the exchange and in effect takes the opposite side of some customer trades.
