Wu Says Daily Selected Crypto News - SEC issues Wells Notice to Consensys, Consensys fights back and sues SEC
1. SEC issues Wells notice to Consensys, Consensys fights back and sues SEC
Consensys' lawsuit against the SEC and all five of its commissioners states that the SEC should not be allowed to arbitrarily expand its jurisdiction to regulate the future of the internet by falsely labeling ETH as a security. The company wants a federal court to declare that ETH is not a security and that any investigation into ConsenSys based on the view that ETH is a security "would violate" the company's Fifth Amendment rights and the Administrative Procedure Act. Consensys revealed in the lawsuit that it received a Wells Notice from the SEC on April 10, accusing MetaMask of operating as an unlicensed broker-dealer.

Wu said that Vitalik Buterin responded to the community discussion and hoped to stick to PoW, saying that PoW is also quite centralized. It's just not discussed too much because everyone knows that this is just a temporary stage before switching to PoS. This doesn't even involve how to avoid ASICs, just because the upcoming PoS transition means there is no motivation to build them. Some Ethereum community members privately expressed the hope that the main reasons for sticking to POW instead of transitioning to POS are: centralization risk, so verification is more centralized; balance of power, originally there were three groups checking and balancing each other, and POS removed the miner group; connected to the real world, so energy prices factor mining into the network.

Frontier Lab: An article introducing Bittensor, an AI algorithm aggregation platform
Author: Frontier Lab
Basic information of the project
Operation Mode
Bittensor aims to create an AI algorithm aggregation platform to stimulate the development and decentralization of artificial intelligence. Bittensor adopts the design concept of Polkadot parallel chain, connecting to the main network through different subnets through the Bittensor API to form the entire blockchain network. Miners and validators are the core modules of the subnet. Miners provide operation and upgrade support for the AI model of each subnet. Validators evaluate the work quality of miners, and the evaluation results are used for the reward distribution of TAO tokens.
Subnet creators can earn token rewards by providing various AI-powered services, and users can purchase these services to accelerate their business development. Bittensor aggregates different AI models together, and the AI type is determined by the algorithm, so Bittensor aggregates various types of AI algorithms in one place to better meet user needs, while encouraging knowledge sharing between subnets to promote collaborative research between different algorithms. Ultimately, the vision of the project is to create more powerful decentralized AI models.
