Unichain, a decentralized finance layer 2 solution developed by Uniswap Labs, is focused on the launch of a new validation network. As an on-chain decentralization feature, the validation network adds another layer of finality to the network. It also cuts the risks of the network running conflicting blocks as well as contribute to Unichain’s DeFi growth. The Unichain team announced this on Mar. 7, revealing the plans are part of its roadmap. Notably, Uniswap ( UNI ) launched Unichain mainnet in February, fulfilling a target set for the first months of 2025. Ahead of this milestone, the DeFi-focused platform’s developers hinted at plans for further network decentralization. The goal, according to Unichain, was to have a new validation network, dubbed Unichain Validation Network, or UVN, in place. Anyone can run a node and participate in block verification via UVN. “Upon its launch, the Unichain Validation Network (UVN) is designed to advance Unichain’s decentralization and enable faster finality. The UVN is composed of a network of full nodes that will monitor and verify blocks the sequencer posts to mainnet,” Unichain Foundation noted in a recent blog post. To incentivize network participants, Unichain has outlined that 65% of its network revenue will go to validators and stalkers. Unichain says a test version of UVN is scheduled for the testnet environment in the coming months. Once it goes live on mainnet, it will open up 65% of net revenue for distribution to validators and stalkers. Until then, Unichain Foundation will deploy the generated chain revenue to ecosystem growth efforts via its Unichain Growth Reserve. Other than fast block times aided by the decentralized node operator platform under UVN, Unichain will also feature rollups and become part of Optimism’s Superchain post mainnet. The development will see Uniswap Labs become an OP Stack core contributor, as well as a result in the Optimism Collective receiving a share of the Unichain gross net revenue.

BNB Chain’s upgrade brings better EVM compatibility and developer flexibility and will go live on the mainnet on March 20. BNB Chain ’s Pascal hardfork, an upgrade set to bring several enhancements to the blockchain network, will deploy on the mainnet this March. Per an announcement , this upgrade should be going live in about two weeks’ time — specifically, it’s on March 20. The mainnet activation of the latest BNB Chain upgrade follows the BNB-powered blockchain’s testnet release of the hardfork in February 2025 ( BNB ). While the developer team initially highlighted a tentative mainnet launch date of mid-March, the team is now looking at March 20, 2025. Pascal offers Ethereum ( ETH ) Virtual Machine compatibility via the improvement proposal EIP-7702, which allows externally owned accounts to execute smart contracts code. This means wallets can act as smart contracts that allow for gasless transactions, batch approvals, and swaps. Pascal introduces EVM compatibility with the same features that Ethereum is eyeing with the Pectra upgrade . With its upgrade, Binance’s blockchain network eyes improved user experience and easier web3 onboarding as decentralized applications sponsor gas fees. Ahead of the Pascal hardfork, node operators and validators, exchanges and infrastructure providers as well as developers need to update. This is to ensure compatibility, as failing to update could see participants out of sync post-mainnet upgrade. BNB Chain’s next steps after the Pascal update include two key milestones in network speed. These are via the Lorentz hardfork expected in April 2025 and the Maxwell hardfork earmarked for June 2025. Lorentz targets faster blocks at 1.5 seconds, while the Maxwell upgrade would see BNB Chain’s transactions at sub-second finality with 0.75 seconds. These are key upgrades as BNB Chain targets traction across decentralized finance and artificial intelligence. A recently unveiled AI roadmap reveals as much. Notably, the intersection of DeFi and AI has sprouted the rapidly expanding ecosystem of DeFAI, bringing opportunities from AI and blockchain. It includes benefits in the optimization of yield generation, cross-chain intelligence, and liquidity management.

Bitcoin‘s daily timeframe reveals persistent liquidation pressures after a swift retreat from the $106,000 pinnacle triggered a cascading drop. A fleeting stabilization at $78,197 now anchors interim stability, though the $94,000 ceiling stifles recovery efforts. Pronounced bearish formations, amplified by vigorous transactional flows, fortify pessimistic expectations, with $82,000 emerging as a plausible floor should downward forces intensify. BTC/USD 1D chart via Bitstamp on March 7, 2025. While shorter-term metrics—such as the exponential moving average (EMA 10) at $88,933 and simple moving average (SMA 10) at $87,407—flash warnings of frailty, the enduring exponential moving average (EMA 200) at $85,831 and simple moving average (SMA 200) at $83,037 whisper of latent demand. Zooming to the four-hour window, bitcoin’s swift downturn from $95,152 illustrates faltering vitality above $90,000. Escalating sell-side participation cements the descent, while the exponential moving average (EMA 10) and simple moving average (SMA 10) linger beneath current valuations, echoing bearish rhythms. BTC/USD 4H chart via Bitstamp on March 7, 2025. An unsuccessful rally above $91,000 solidifies this zone as a formidable barrier, positioning short-term bearish strategies as prudent if prices falter between $88,000 and $90,000, eyeing $85,000 or $82,000 as destinations. The hourly lens echoes immediate liquidation patterns, with repeated denials near $91,560 propelling valuations to $84,713. Subdued transactional activity hints at waning conviction, yet directional momentum leans downward. BTC/USD 1H chart via Bitstamp on March 7, 2025. Neutral readings from the relative strength index (RSI) at 42 contrast with the awesome oscillator (AO) and momentum gauges, which tilt toward distribution. Failure to conquer $88,500 may invite retreats toward $86,000 or below, though a spirited push past $87,000 with heightened participation could spark ephemeral rallies toward $89,000 or $90,000. Momentum metrics and trend-following tools collectively reinforce cautionary narratives. The commodity channel index (CCI) at -55 sits idle, while the awesome oscillator (AO) and momentum readings tilt toward pessimism. Every short- to medium-term trend tracker—from the exponential moving average (EMA 10) to the simple moving average (SMA 100)—broadcasts sell directives. Only the distant simple moving average (SMA 200) at $83,000 offers a glimmer of foundational support. With bitcoin (BTC) ensnared beneath gravitational resistance, near-term risks skew downward. Foundational tiers at $85,000, $82,000, and $78,000 may face scrutiny before equilibrium resurfaces. Absent a decisive thrust above $91,000, the path of least resistance slopes southward, inviting tests of deeper thresholds in sessions ahead. Despite short-term bearish momentum, long-term support near $83,000 and $85,000 could provide a solid foundation for a rebound if buyers step in. A breakout above $91,000 may signal renewed upside potential. Bitcoin remains in a clear downtrend, with strong resistance at $90,000 and key indicators favoring further downside. If selling pressure persists, BTC could test lower support levels near $82,000 and $78,000 before any significant recovery. 免责声明：本文章仅代表作者个人观点，不代表本平台的立场和观点。本文章仅供信息分享，不构成对任何人的任何投资建议。用户与作者之间的任何争议，与本平台无关。如网页中刊载的文章或图片涉及侵权，请提供相关的权利证明和身份证明发送邮件到[email protected]，本平台相关工作人员将会进行核查。

Nucleus Marketplace operated from 2014 to 2016 as a prominent dark web hub for illegal drug sales and contraband, utilizing cryptocurrencies like bitcoin for anonymous transactions. The platform vanished abruptly in April 2016 amid speculation of an exit scam—where administrators absconded with user funds—or a security breach. At the time, its wallets reportedly held over 5,000 BTC, valued at approximately $2.25 million when it happened, and the funds remained untouched for nearly a decade. Blockchain data indicates the wallets, long presumed abandoned, initiated transactions on March 7, 2025, marking the first activity since the market’s disappearance. The movement of such a significant sum—now worth hundreds of millions of dollars due to bitcoin’s appreciation—had drawn attention from Arkham Intelligence. Potential actors include original administrators, hackers, law enforcement agencies, or third parties who gained access to private keys. “Wallets belonging to Nucleus Marketplace woke up this morning after 9 years of inactivity, transferring $77.5M worth of Bitcoin to 3 new wallets,” Arkham wrote on X. “Nucleus Marketplace wallets still hold $365M BTC.” Arkham added: Nucleus Marketplace was a darknet drug market, and it was believed that the founder had either been apprehended by law enforcement or had exit-scammed when the market went offline in 2016. The BTC held in their wallets has not been moved until today. Nucleus Marketplace’s legacy complicates the implications of this activity. The platform facilitated tens of thousands of illicit transactions before its shutdown, and unresolved legal cases tied to its operations could resurface. Law enforcement may seek to seize the funds if linked to criminal activity, while hackers or rogue actors could attempt to liquidate the bitcoin. Onchain data identified specific addresses, such as “1GGe3,” last active in April 2016, which are part of the darknet’s cache. Verification via blockchain explorers is ongoing to confirm the scope and destination of the movements. As of March 7, 2025, the motives behind the activity remain unclear. The new wallets include “bc1qm8,” “bc1qm0,” and “bc1qsh.” 免责声明：本文章仅代表作者个人观点，不代表本平台的立场和观点。本文章仅供信息分享，不构成对任何人的任何投资建议。用户与作者之间的任何争议，与本平台无关。如网页中刊载的文章或图片涉及侵权，请提供相关的权利证明和身份证明发送邮件到[email protected]，本平台相关工作人员将会进行核查。

Cardano Foundation has sealed a strategic partnership with Serviço Federal de Processamento de Dados, a state-owned information technology firm and the largest technology provider for the government of Brazil. Serviço Federal de Processamento de Dados, or SERPRO, is a leading software company. Meanwhile, the Swiss-based Cardano Foundation is a nonprofit organization supporting the development of the Cardano (ADA) blockchain network. The two entities announced their landmark collaboration on Mar. 6. Why is this important? SERPRO is the Brazilian government’s top technology partner, powering digital solutions for over 90% of the country’s federal administration. Joining forces with SERPRO will help Cardano accelerate blockchain adoption across Latin America, the two entities said. Key focus areas of the collaboration include innovation and blockchain education, as well as digital infrastructure integration across the public sector. Cardano’s blockchain, combined with SERPRO’s presence and expertise in public administration, will drive the government’s adoption of blockchain technology.
