According to BlockBeats, on April 19, Casey Rodarmor, the founder of Ordinals, hinted on social media that a rune might be engraved the next day. Previously, on April 18, Rodarmor had stated in a Discord community meeting that the Runes protocol only hard codes the 0th rune, known as 'UNCOMMON•GOODS'. The names of the other nine tokens were not hard-coded into the Runes protocol due to a lack of creative ideas. Rodarmor had previously planned to hard code the first ten runes, numbered 0-9, into the Runes protocol. This latest announcement suggests that this plan may be moving forward. However, no further details were provided about which rune might be engraved or what the implications of this action might be. The community will be watching closely for further updates from Rodarmor and the Ordinals team.

According to PANews, a recent working paper from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has highlighted the importance of Bitcoin for individuals in high inflation countries such as Argentina and Venezuela. The paper suggests that Bitcoin is crucial for preserving wealth and accessing global markets during periods of financial instability. The report also indicates that people are turning to Bitcoin to escape the instability of local economies and currencies, and to evade capital controls and strict financial regulation in their home countries. This is particularly the case in emerging markets like Argentina and Venezuela, where Bitcoin liquidity is high. The countries with the highest inflow of Bitcoin include Seychelles, Venezuela, Moldova, Nigeria, and the Central African Republic. Residents are beginning to turn to Bitcoin for cross-border capital flows, making it more than just a speculative investment. Countries like Seychelles and Moldova, which have attracted cryptocurrency exchanges due to their low tax rates and relaxed regulation, are also seeing people view Bitcoin as a safe asset due to currency devaluation and economic instability.

According to Foresight News, the decentralized computing network PADO has initiated a partnership with Arweave's supercomputer AO to launch Verifiable Confidential Computing (VCC). The VCC will be established on AO. PADO will gradually build decentralized computing units based on AO and will use the Arweave blockchain as a privacy data storage layer. Users can encrypt their data using PADO's zkFHE technology and securely store it on the Arweave blockchain. Any computing requests within the AO ecosystem will be sent to PADO's exclusive computing units via the AO dispatch unit. These computing units will send the computing tasks to zkFHE computing nodes. After these computing nodes retrieve the user's encrypted data on Arweave, they will complete the corresponding homomorphic computations and computation integrity proofs as per the requirements of the computing request.
