George Town, Cayman Islands, August 13th, 2025, Chainwire
Token Generation Event (TGE) Scheduled for August 20
Following the release of its tokenomics paper, the Sapien Foundation, governing body of Sapien, a decentralized protocol connecting human intelligence to AI systems, has officially announced the date of the $SAPIEN Token Generation Event (TGE): August 20, 2025.
Built on Base, Coinbase’s secure and cost-efficient Layer 2, the $SAPIEN token powers a decentralized data foundry supported by an open Proof of Quality (PoQ) protocol. This system enforces data quality and coordinates participation through four integrated mechanisms: staking, validation, reputation, and incentives.
Rowan Stone, CEO of Sapien, says, “Sapien exists to help AI teams answer two questions that matter for every decision their models make: where did this data come from, and can it be trusted? Onchain systems have proven that incentives can organize capital at scale. We’re applying the same principles to knowledge through our Proof of Quality protocol, aligning incentives to verify provenance and scale high-value data. The aim is simple: make human data traceable, trustworthy, and scalable so the AI built on it can actually improve lives.”
Sapien is already trusted by leading organizations, including Midjourney, Workday, Alibaba, GAC, Lenovo, Transsion, CarVertical, and the United Nations.
The upcoming TGE introduces a fair launch model that balances early utility, contributor rewards, investor alignment, and long-term community governance. At launch, 25% of the total token supply will be unlocked, with the remaining 75% released through transparent vesting schedules. The total token supply is capped at 1,000,000,000 $SAPIEN.
Token Distribution Overview
- Ticker: SAPIEN
- Total Supply: 1,000,000,000
- Network: Base (ERC-20)
- TGE Date: Aug. 20, 2025
Eligible contributors will be able to claim a portion of their airdrop immediately following the TGE. This marks the first season of the Sapien Airdrop, an ongoing campaign designed to retroactively reward high-quality contributions.
To prepare for the drop, point accumulation for task-based work has been paused. A final leaderboard will be published ahead of the August 20th event. After the TGE, contributors will begin earning $USDC and $SAPIEN directly through the platform.
Cookie and Kaito campaigns will continue awarding points for eligible social content. Cookie’s claim window will also open at TGE, with vesting terms to be announced separately.

OpenServ, the leading full‑stack AI infrastructure platform and protocol, today announced a partnership with LunarCrush, the leading web3 social analytics firm serving companies such as Coinbase, Kraken, HTX, and Binance. The collaboration integrates LunarCrush’s 24/7 tracking of 30–50 million social media posts per hour, along with live market data, directly into OpenServ’s generative UI platform for Telegram mini apps and agent workflows. Two products are live today: DeFi News aApp on Telegram and Dash.fun (open beta).
DeFi News aApp creates short AI video briefings using LunarCrush insights—right inside Telegram—where anyone can try it at t.me/definews_aapp_bot. Users pick a topic, set a timeframe and data source, then receive a one- to three-minute video with animated overlays and on-screen stats. Templates include Bitcoin Daily Brief, Ethereum Weekly, Solana Ecosystem, and Hidden Altcoin Gems. Users can also run a custom analysis, choose an AI presenter, and schedule daily delivery. The app reads LunarCrush metrics such as social dominance, Galaxy Score, trending assets, and top influencers, then assembles a concise script and renders a finished video in‑chat for easy sharing.
Dash.fun launched in open beta on Thursday, August 7, 2025. It surfaces up‑to‑the‑minute information on any cryptocurrency based on social sentiment, recent highlights, company updates, price action, and more—without manual updates. Visit dash.fun to explore live dashboards powered by LunarCrush data.
“The fastest way to make data useful is to put it where people already work,” said Tim Hafner, CEO and co‑founder of OpenServ. “Telegram is the home base for crypto communities. Together, LunarCrush and OpenServ give users a live social signal and a way to publish that insight as video in seconds. This is just the first of many agentic use cases on Telegram.”
“Builders want context they can act on,” said Joe Vezzani, chief executive of LunarCrush. “In a world where large language models are trained, released, and end their intelligence at a point in time, LunarCrush fills the gap to allow real-time social context to anyone building LLMs and agents.”
The collaboration began after an early‑July discussion between Hafner and Vezzani about opening social data to AI agents and everyday users in chat. The partnership pairs LunarCrush analytics with OpenServ’s aApp Factory, Dash.fun dashboards, and agent tooling for Telegram. OpenServ agents use the same LunarCrush API that powers Dash.fun, shortening setup and improving reliability for teams that want to add social metrics to their own agents, tiles, and dashboards.
To help builders, OpenServ is publishing resources so teams can add LunarCrush data to custom workflows: a starter template for Telegram mini apps, an agent guide, and a Dash.fun example that maps social dominance to charts and triggers. A joint livestream will walk through the integration, show how the DeFi News aApp works, and answer questions from developers and community managers. Details will be posted on OpenServ’s Telegram Announcements channel and X account.
About OpenServ

Zug, Switzerland, August 13th, 2025, Chainwire
dWallet Labs, a core contributor of Ika, and a leader in cryptography and decentralized security, today announced REFHE (Ring-Enhanced Fully Homomorphic Encryption), a new encryption scheme that brings encrypted computation closer than ever to how real processors work. REFHE uniquely supports both arithmetic and logical operations on encrypted 64-bit values, enabling software to switch seamlessly between math and logic—just like a modern CPU.
Why This Matters
Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) allows computation on encrypted data without revealing the underlying information—a capability long considered a “holy grail” of cryptography. But existing schemes typically force a trade-off: choose between efficient arithmetic or efficient logic. REFHE removes that barrier, creating a unified approach where real-world software—full of mixed arithmetic and logic—can run encrypted.
Breaking a Decade of TFHE Dominance
Since 2016, TFHE has been one of the most widely used FHE schemes, especially in the context of blockchain use cases, and is leveraged by companies such as Zama. For nearly a decade, no scheme had meaningfully surpassed its performance and latency—until now. REFHE delivers:
- 100× smaller ciphertexts
- 20× faster multiplications
- 1,000× faster additions
These gains, alongside being optimized for both arithmetic and logical operations, make it the first FHE scheme capable of operating as a practical, CPU-like encrypted execution engine.
Implications for 2PC-MPC and the Ika Network
The latest FHE-related research, including REFHE and Threshold FHE, can be integrated into the 2PC-MPC protocol powering the fastest MPC network – Ika, coordinated on Sui. With these breakthroughs, 2PC-MPC could directly execute its Zero-Trust signing with FHE, reducing communication rounds and boosting latency, throughput, and security.
Building on Recent Threshold FHE Breakthroughs
REFHE follows dWallet Labs’ recent Threshold FHE research, which enables scalable, efficient, secure multi-party decryption. Together, these advances form the basis for encrypted systems that are both high-performance and capable of real-world program logic.
“This is more than a speedup,” said Omer Sadika, Co-Founder of Ika and CEO at dWallet Labs. “It’s about finally aligning encrypted computation with the way real software and CPUs work. That opens up a new class of secure, privacy-preserving applications that were simply not practical before.”
About Ika
Ika is the fastest parallel MPC network, offering sub-second latency, unprecedented scale and decentralization, and zero-trust security. As the premier choice for interoperability, decentralized custody, and chain abstraction, Ika is set to revolutionize digital asset security and multi-chain DeFi. Users can learn more here
About dWallet Labs
dWallet Labs is at the forefront of cryptographic innovation, building secure, decentralized protocols for the next generation of the internet. From pioneering 2PC-MPC to advancing FHE, the company is shaping the infrastructure for a secure, interconnected world.

Pepeto, the Ethereum-based meme coin, is approaching the end of Stage 8 of its presale after raising $6,096,096.67 in total. With more than 100 billion tokens sold so far, the Pepeto team points to consistent demand from both meme coin enthusiasts and the broader crypto community as the driver behind its steady progress.
Built on Ethereum and integrating a zero-fee exchange model, Pepeto aims to combine utility with meme culture. The project’s audited infrastructure, reviewed by SolidProof and Coinsult, and community-focused approach have contributed to its legitimacy and growing investor confidence. Stage 9 is the next step in the project’s timeline toward public launch.
Stage 8 Nears Sellout as Project Advances
The nearing completion of Stage 8 is more than a milestone, it reflects investor sentiment. The project reports that each stage has moved faster than expected, driven by increasing participation from new and returning contributors. At a current price of $0.000000146, Pepeto offers early entry with room for potential growth, matching the total supply of 420 trillion tokens, the same as PEPE.
Unlike many meme coins built solely on viral marketing, Pepeto is anchored by a defined roadmap and tangible developments. Its upcoming platform aims to enhance accessibility, provide zero-fee trading, and bridge multiple blockchain networks, positioning it to scale effectively while appealing to a wide investor base.
Community-Driven Growth and Strategic Foundations
Pepeto’s visibility is supported by both structured development and active community engagement. The team’s presence across X and Telegram has fueled awareness while reinforcing transparency. In parallel, development milestones, including the launch of a demo version of its PepetoSwap exchange, have showcased its readiness for market entry.
The project’s emphasis on combining staking rewards of up to 247% APY with scalable infrastructure has been cited by the team as a differentiator in the meme coin space. This measured approach, combined with regular updates and verified audits, positions Pepeto as a project working toward sustained growth rather than short-lived hype.
What Comes Next for $PEPETO
According to the team, with Stage 9 about to begin, Pepeto is preparing for further growth ahead of its public listing. The team has announced that applications for legitimate Web3 project owners to list on its upcoming platform will open in Stage 2 of its post-launch rollout. Alongside this, the demo exchange display, already live, will transition into its full version, expanding the project’s ecosystem.
Future plans also include expanding marketing reach, integrating additional trading tools, and leveraging community incentives to maintain engagement before listing. The team believes that these developments, combined with the established audit-backed trust, will help Pepeto stand out as a credible contender in the meme coin market.
Disclaimer:
To buy PEPETO, users must make sure to use the official website: https://pepeto.io. As the listing draws closer, some are attempting to capitalize on the hype by using the name to mislead investors with fake platforms. Stay cautious and verify the source.
About Pepeto
Pepeto is an Ethereum-based meme coin in its presale stages, merging viral meme culture with real-world crypto utility. Built for investors looking for the next big crypto presale, the project offers zero-fee trading, a cross-chain bridge, and high-yield staking opportunities, all backed by two independent smart contract audits. Designed to compete with top Ethereum meme coins, Pepeto’s platform aims to deliver scalable performance and long-term value while attracting a global community of traders and holders. With its low entry price and clear roadmap, Pepeto positions itself as a high-potential meme coin to watch ahead of its public listing.

Caldera today announced the launch of ERA Force One, a new community platform created to provide $ERA token holders with status and direct access to the team and fellow strategists. Inspired by the “Air Force One” moniker, the program establishes a tiered community structure where members earn ranks based on the official U.S. Air Force progression. A member’s rank, which is determined by their total token and staked token balance, dictates their level of access and community standing.
Building a Unified Community
ERA Force One represents a significant step forward in community building for Caldera’s ecosystem. The platform introduces a ranking system where users progress from “Airman Basic” to “General” based on the sum of their ERA token holdings and staked positions. This merit-based structure ensures that the most committed community members receive appropriate recognition and access to premium benefits.
“Our community is the backbone of Caldera, and ERA Force One is our way of recognizing their conviction,” said a spokesperson for Caldera. “We’re adopting the official Air Force ranks to create a structured and familiar path for advancement. We want our most dedicated holders, our ‘Generals’ and ‘Colonels’, helping us shape our strategic direction.”
Exclusive Access and Future Rewards
Members of ERA Force One gain access to exclusive communities for networking and strategy. Top-tier members, such as those who achieve the ranks of General, Brigadier General, and Colonel, are granted entry into private Telegram groups for direct communication with the team and fellow strategists.
This platform serves as a direct channel between the project and its most committed stakeholders, ensuring community voices are central to future governance and development initiatives.
Beyond immediate community access, ERA Force One members may be eligible for future initiatives and potential rewards. Specific details of upcoming programs remain under development.
Seamless Registration Process
Community members can register for ERA Force One through the dedicated platform at https://eraforce.one. The registration process automatically calculates users’ combined token holdings and staked positions to assign appropriate ranks within the community hierarchy.
Supporting Caldera’s Growing Ecosystem
The launch of ERA Force One comes as Caldera continues to expand its influence in the blockchain infrastructure space after a successful launch of the $ERA token, which is listed on top-tier exchange venues such as Binance, Bybit, Coinbase, Upbit, Bitget, and Bithumb.
The community platform aligns with Caldera’s broader mission of building sustainable, engaged ecosystems around its technology offerings. By creating structured incentives for token holders, ERA Force One strengthens the project’s relationship with its community while establishing a framework for future governance and participation initiatives.

Hex Trust, a leading digital asset financial institution specializing in custody, staking, and markets services, has announced support for Etherlink, a high-performance, EVM-compatible Layer 2 network built on Tezos. As part of the integration, Hex Trust now offers custody support for xU3O8, a tokenized uranium asset issued on Etherlink, reinforcing its commitment to the real-world asset (RWA) ecosystem.
The integration is supported by Trilitech, the R&D adoption hub working on the Tezos blockchain platform and the team behind Etherlink, which is working with Hex Trust to connect institutional clients seeking secure custody for xU3O8 and other Etherlink-based assets. The xU3O8 token is listed across multiple exchanges, making it one of the most accessible examples of on-chain commodity tokenization.
Hex Trust offers licensed and compliant custody to safeguard tokenized commodities. By supporting Etherlink and xU3O8, Hex Trust provides market participants with access to institutional-grade RWA infrastructure, facilitating custody solutions for assets that bridge the gap between traditional finance and blockchain-based settlement.
“Tokenized commodities like uranium are gaining institutional interest as more real-world assets move on-chain,” said Giorgia Pellizzari, Head of Custody at Hex Trust. “By integrating Etherlink, we reinforce our support for the Tezos ecosystem, and highlight our continued focus on delivering secure, regulated custody for institutions engaging with the evolving landscape of real-world asset tokenization.”
“We’re really excited to see Hex Trust embracing xU3O8,” said Ben Elvidge, the Head of Commercial Applications at Trilitech. “Uranium is a perfect fit for this kind of innovation. It’s a physical asset that’s tough for most investors to access, the market has pricing issues, and now we can solve both problems with blockchain rails. Having a proper regulated custodian like Hex Trust in the mix just makes it that much easier for institutions to dip their toes in the water.”
This development reinforces Hex Trust’s role in enabling institutional access to tokenized real-world assets. With licenses in major global financial hubs including Hong Kong, Singapore, Dubai, and Italy, Hex Trust continues to deliver secure and compliant infrastructure for tokenization, custody, and execution.

DUBAI, UAE, Aug. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, is excited to announced the launch of the Bybit Rising Fund, a groundbreaking corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiative focused on education through impact. Spanning 15+ geographies across four continents—from Bolivia and South Africa to the Nordic capitals—the fund represents a paradigm shift from traditional one-off charitable donations to sustainable, mutually beneficial, and education-first partnerships that serve communities long-term.
Rewriting the Standard for Crypto CSR
The Rising Fund debuts as part of Bybit’s World Series of Trading (WSOT) 2025, operating under the transformative theme “Rewrite & Reshape.” This year’s competition goes beyond trading excellence to create real-world impact by allocating a portion of the prize pool to localized education initiatives, demystifying abstract blockchain concepts and utilities for the academia, researchers, developers, creators, and students alike.
Contribution to philanthropic and educational causes has been an integral part of WSOT, the longest-running crypto trading competition of its kind and Bybit’s flagship event that excites millions of traders each year.
For the first time in WSOT’s history, Bybit will decentralize control of the CSR prize pool, giving each region—from Latin America and Southeast Asia to MENA and Europe—the opportunity to directly fund and co-create educational programs, scholarships, and hackathons with local institutions. The approach strengthens project ownership and decentralizes creative power to the builders. Together, local taskforces will shape the blockchain-enabled future best suited for their realities and real-world needs.
Reshaping Access to the Industry
The Rising Fund addresses critical barriers to entry in the blockchain and cryptocurrency space through:
- Blockchain and crypto bootcamps designed for entry-level participants
- Beginner-focused educational courses that make complex concepts accessible
