Charles Hoskinson says Cardano no longer comes first – its treasury vote explains why

Cardanos delegated governance voters let a 12.29 million ADA request for Pogun expire without ratification, showing that Input Outputs history as a founding builder does not guarantee access to the networks treasury.

New crypto presale 2026: MemeToros AI utility and stage 7 progress stands out

New crypto presales often compete for attention with big promises and fast-moving social posts.  MemeToro is standing out in a different way. It has moved into Stage 7 at $0.00430, raised more than $139K, and published public code for an AI-guided fair-launch system on BNB Chain.  That combination gives buyers more than a price chart to consider. The project wants to use an AI agent to help creators build memecoin launches with fixed distribution and funding rules. $MT is planned as the token that connects users to this wider ecosystem.  The most bullish case is that MemeToro becomes a useful place to launch, discover, and trade meme assets. The key risk is that the product is still being built. For buyers looking at new crypto presales in 2026, progress and delivery matter more than slogans.  Discovering MemeToros stage 7 crypto presale opportunity  MemeToro is an emerging BNB Chain project that focuses on memecoin creation and trading tools. Its presale has passed $139K, and the active Stage 7 price is $0.00430 per $MT.

Why keeping your private keys safe won’t always stop crypto theft

Almost 4,000 Bitcoin left Liquids reserve on Sept. 6 through a withdrawal the network approved, even though the private keys used to authorize it hadnt been stolen. Software had accepted a withdrawal that should never have qualified.

Bitcoin goes into a shared reserve, and users receive tokens called L-BTC, each intended to represent one BTC. When users redeem those tokens, the corresponding coins come out of the reserve.  According to TRM Labs reconstruction of the attack, attackers exploited a software flaw to create L-BTC without putting in the Bitcoin to back it, and then exchanged those tokens for real coins. The operators responsible for approving withdrawals essentially trusted information that was wrong.  If youve spent years hearing that protecting your keys means protecting your crypto, this takes a moment to absorb. Private keys are the secrets that authorize transactions, and keeping them away from thieves is essential. But software can still use those keys to approve the wrong payment.

Stacks crypto jumps 13% - Could STX bulls extend the price rally?

Stacks [STX] has reached roughly 13% in the past day at press time, as capital flow across the Perpetual and Spot Market continued to strengthen.  In the Spot market specifically, traders had purchased more STX across multiple crypto venues and moved them into private wallets for holding as the Netflow turned negative.  Negative Netflow suggests overall accumulation, and at press time, that figure had reached roughly -$165,000 in Netflow following a $5.90 million buy.  Source: CoinGlass  The accumulation has been building for days. Over the past ten days, the market has seen clear accumulation, with a netflow of -$1.15 million. In the past three days, that figure reached roughly -$1.03 million, according to CoinGlass.  Moreover, continued Spot buying could increase the chances of the STX rally being sustained in the long run. For now, accumulation appears to be the most obvious trend the market could follow.  Perpetual flow sparks STX rally  The Perpetual market flow also contributed to the gains, with the Funding Rate and Open Interest (OI) both seeing positive surges that reflected on price. Notably, The Perpetual OI has surged 24%, reaching a high of $38 million at the time of writing.  Source: CoinGlass  A surge in capital often links to growing investor confidence, whether in short

XRP Price Today: XRP Reclaims $1.40 as Whale Accumulation Hits $2.2B

Santiment-linked data cited by crypto analyst Ali Martinez shows large holders accumulated approximately 1.54 billion XRP, worth about $2.2 billion, over 96 hours.  The move comes as the XRP priceconsolidates after testing the $1.44-$1.45 area. At the same time, CryptoQuant data shows roughly 1.6 billion XRP flowed into Binance over a rolling 30-day period, the highest level since March. The two whale-flow measures point to unusually high activity among large holders, although they represent different types of wallet movements and should not be treated as the same signal.  XRP Price Reclaims $1.40  The XRP current price has remained volatile after the token recovered from the $1.24-$1.26 area. A 2-hour chart reviewed for this analysis showed the price around $1.433 on September 19, following a move from approximately $1.27 to $1.43.XRP price chart. Source: Brave New Coin  That recovery produced a sequence of higher lows and stronger upward candles.

Recent market data also shows that the price subsequently pulled back toward the $1.37-$1.39 area after testing higher levels. This leaves the $1.40 region as an important short-term reference for the XRP

Solana validator coordination faces its 250ms test

Solana validator coordination now operates on a 250-millisecond target slot time. A slot is the networks target interval for a validator to produce a block, so the change gives users more frequent opportunities for transactions to land while giving validators less time to pass production from one leader to the next.  The change became effective at epoch 1037 on Sept. 18, according to the Solana engineering changelog and a Solana Compass report that placed the transition at about 05:06 UTC. One early Sept. 20 sample covering 60 one-minute windows observed about 266ms per produced slot. Epoch 1037 skipped about 0.05% of its scheduled slots.  The narrow observation window supports an encouraging first reading, not a long-term performance trend. The more important test is whether leader handoffs, transaction forwarding, repair and multiple validator clients remain reliable as Solana considers a conditional move to 200ms.

Anthropic taps Accenture as embedded evaluator to help with AI slowdown proposal

Anthropic said it has chosen Accenture as its first embedded evaluator to help slow the pace of AI development as proposed last week by CEO Dario Amodei.  Amodei published a three-step proposal on Sept. 12 to slow the development of AI and allow safeguards to be put in place amid warnings of a potential for catastrophic harm in the wake of swift, unchecked development.  OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk responded positively to Amodeis proposal, although Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang did not, arguing that such regulation was not necessary.  Still, Amodei wrote in his proposal that “AI has been advancing drastically faster, driven primarily by AIs growing ability to build the next generation of AI. This dynamic is called recursive self-improvement,” and “left unchecked, it could outrun our ability to understand and control these systems.”  Related: Anthropic chief urges slowdown in AI development to safer pace  The first step in Amodeis proposal is having independent evaluators with employee-like access, to which Anthropic had already unilaterally committed, Amodei wrote.  Anthropic announced a move toward fulfilling this commitment on Friday by partnering with Accenture and its AI business Faculty in “evaluating and red-teaming models, conducting alignment assessments and testing model safeguards.”  Details of how this will
