📰 The most eye-catching news today is still that Anthropic may be considering an IPO. Bloomberg reports that formal marketing could begin as early as mid-November, with the goal of listing before Thanksgiving, and a potential valuation of about $1.8 trillion to $2.0 trillion. However, the timeline is still under discussion—whether it can land on this schedule remains to be seen.

🔥 On the other side, Hyperliquid is expected to receive its first AQAv2 reserve earnings distribution tomorrow. Passive income of roughly $14.5 million generated from the USDC reserves will flow into the Assistance Fund, which will be used to repurchase HYPE. The highlight here is very straightforward: protocol revenue starts flowing back into the token mechanism through buybacks.

💡 A new proposal from the NEAR community is also quite interesting. It plans to use 24 months to gradually reduce NEAR’s maximum annual token issuance rate from 2.5% down to 1.6%. This is currently just a community proposal and not a final outcome, but adjustments on the supply side will indeed affect the timing of subsequent token unlocks.

⚠️ Security incidents can’t be ignored either. Aave’s founder said the issue lies with a third-party external adapter built on top of Aave v3—Aave v3 contracts themselves were not affected. SlowMist adds that the attacker exploited an access-control vulnerability and stole approximately 114.09 ETH. Honestly, the more modules and external tools there are, the harder it is for users to judge risk based solely on the name of the main protocol.

🤔 Among these today, which do you care about more: Anthropic’s massive-scale IPO, or Hyperliquid’s buyback arrangement?
