NFT Floor Price Rises to 13 ETH—StonkBrokers Are About to Open a Launch Pad Again
Author: KarenZ, Foresight News A month ago, 4,444 StonkBrokers pixel agents made their on-chain debut. Now, the price per NFT has reached 13 ETH. If you roughly calculate by multiplying the 13 ETH floor price by the total quantity of 4,444, the “floor valuation” of the entire NFT set comes to over $100 million. But this is not the actual market cap, because the algorithm assumes that all NFTs can be sold at the current floor price. It’s more suitable for gauging market heat than for measuring the real value that can be cashed out. The STONKBROKER tokens, which are part of the same product ecosystem as the NFTs, are also rising. According to GMGN data, their valuation once came close to $100 million.
Defensive AI cybersecurity model Corma completes $60 million seed round
PANews August 11 — According to (Fortune), Corma, a cybersecurity startup founded in 2025, announced that it has completed a $60 million seed round. Investors include Sequoia Capital, Khosla Ventures, and Coatue. Headquartered in Tel Aviv and San Francisco, Corma deployed its first AI model six weeks ago to multiple cross-industry Fortune 100 and Fortune 500 companies (covering healthcare, financial services, energy, critical infrastructure, and retail). Unlike current cybersecurity models that are largely trained to “attack,” such as those from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google, the models trained by Corma focus on “defense.” They concentrate on analyzing logs and audit data, identifying threats amid massive volumes of events, and maintaining consistent strategies across thousands of operations. According to the company, its model has helped customers reduce threat response time by 94%.

OpenAI Ethics Head Leaves Within Less Than a Year; Company Temporarily Has No Dedicated AI Ethics Officer
PANews August 11 report: According to India Today, OpenAI’s Head of Artificial Intelligence Ethics, Chloé Bakalar, left the company last month. Her tenure was under a year, and after her departure, the company will no longer maintain a standalone position for an AI ethics officer.

Previously, she worked at Meta on AI ethics projects and also taught at multiple universities. In addition, this year OpenAI has seen the departures of Safety Systems head Johannes Heidecke and former mission alignment head and Chief Futurist Joshua Achiam. These exits are all related to the company’s reorganization of its safety and alignment teams, as well as individual career plans.
ByteDance Establishes New AI Data and Security Department
PANews August 11 report: According to 36Kr, ByteDance has recently established a first-level department called “AI Data and Security.” It operates in parallel with departments such as Seed, Flow, and Douyin. The department is led by Wang Yinglei (Adam Wang), who was previously responsible for TikTok’s operations and live-streaming. Its core mission is to provide cross-modal data services to all of ByteDance’s large models. The department integrates the Global Data team, which was formed in 2023 by Fu Yue, a member of the founding team of TikTok, as well as the group data middle platform DMC and Flow’s AI data platform AIDP. It covers the entire process of data standard definition, sourcing and procurement, synthesis and cleaning, quality evaluation, and security and compliance. Previously, ByteDance had already invested more than tens of millions of dollars in data budgets for training world models and code models, and adopted a “horse-racing” mechanism to divide teams by directions such as world models, code, and high-difficulty academic subjects.
Kalshi Partners With Nasdaq to Strengthen Oversight of Prediction Market Trading
PA News August 11, Reuters reported that prediction market platform Kalshi announced a multi-year partnership with U.S. exchange operator Nasdaq, saying it will use its market monitoring tools to strengthen oversight of platform trading activity.

Nasdaq currently provides a monitoring platform to more than 50 exchanges and over 20 international regulatory bodies.
Arthur Hayes: A “yen quake” is brewing, and a liquidity tsunami will ignite Bitcoin and gold
Author: Arthur Hayes, Co-founder of BitMEX Compilation: ShenChao TechFlow ShenChao Guide: The Japanese yen is brewing a “quake.” Arthur Hayes believes the yen is the most undervalued currency globally, and that U.S.-Japan authorities have already chosen an “official plan” to strengthen the yen: Japan’s Ministry of Finance will take its $1.373 trillion in U.S. Treasuries, “pledge” them to the Federal Reserve via the Fed’s FIMA repo facility to receive dollars, and then go to the foreign exchange market to buy yen. This setup doesn’t sell assets or move markets, yet it’s essentially the Fed quietly printing money to expand its balance sheet. Once implemented, global dollar liquidity will once again flood the system, and historical experience tells us: Fed balance sheet expansion = Bitcoin and gold take off. Hayes has already heavily positioned in Bitcoin, gold, and gold-mining stocks, and he has also laid out his next outlook for Ethereum and Ethena (ENA). This article breaks down this “FX backdoor” that mainstream attention has largely missed—and what it truly means for the crypto market.
Korean media: SK hynix plans to increase NAND capacity in China by 50%
PANews August 11 news: According to South Korea (Seoul Economic Daily), SK hynix has restarted the construction of the second phase of its China Dalian NAND flash memory production base, with capacity to be expanded by about 50%. The factory broke ground four years ago, but was left idle for a long time due to a prolonged downturn in the memory market. SK hynix plans to complete the introduction of semiconductor production equipment within the year and begin official production in the first half of next year. After a four-year gap, Dalian’s investment cycle is being restarted again, driven by the rapid adoption of AI data centers, which has led to a surge in demand for enterprise SSDs, while NAND prices have risen by nearly tenfold within a year.
SK hynix’s “invisible takeover” makes it the largest shareholder of storage rival Kioxia
PANews August 11 news, according to Korean media outlet MK, Japanese storage chip company Kioxia announced that its largest shareholder has changed from Toshiba to a special purpose company (SPC) BCPE Pangea Cayman2 operated by Bain Capital. The latter’s stake has increased to 14.19%, holding about 77.4 million shares. Since SK hynix holds the convertible bonds (CB) corresponding to all voting rights of this SPC, the change in the shareholder structure means SK hynix does not need to further increase its shareholding and can achieve a “de facto largest shareholder” position over Kioxia through the Bain SPC. However, market insiders noted that this change in the largest shareholder does not mean SK hynix will immediately gain operational control of Kioxia. At present, SK hynix still has no relevant voting rights; it can only obtain formal voting rights after completing the competition regulatory approval and converting the convertible bonds into shares.
Shanghai’s “14th Five-Year Plan” for the software and information services industry: by 2030, the industrial scale is expected to reach RMB 4 trillion
PANews August 11, 2024: The Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Information Technology has issued the “14th Five-Year Plan” for the development of Shanghai’s software and information services industry. The plan proposes that by 2030, the industrial scale of Shanghai’s software and information services industry will strive to reach RMB 4 trillion, with the added value exceeding RMB 1.1 trillion. The number of enterprises with revenue exceeding RMB 10 billion will increase to 35. In terms of computing power infrastructure, Shanghai will implement the “Hundred-Thousand” intelligent computing cluster engineering, deploying ultra-large-scale intelligent computing clusters with 100,000-card capacity in areas such as Songjiang, Lingang, and Qingpu, and building 1,000-card-level intelligent computing clusters in Baoshan, Pudong, Jiading, and other areas. It will also promote model-as-a-service (MaaS) platforms for industries such as finance, education, healthcare, culture and tourism, and manufacturing. For technology breakthroughs, the plan proposes exploring non-Transformer architectures, as well as physical intelligence, world models, quantum intelligence, and brain-like intelligence, in order to enhance the supply capabilities of intelligent computing hardware such as GPUs/NPUs, QPUs, CPO, HBM, and heterogeneous servers, and to promote in-depth integration between indigenous chips and mainstream large models.

Vitalik Updates the Ethereum Roadmap: From Merge to “Streamlined Refactoring”—STARKs, AI, and Privacy Rebuild the Tech Foundation
Author: Blue Fox Notes Vitalik’s long article can be seen as an updated version of the future Ethereum roadmap. Building on the classic roadmap of 2023 (Merge → Surge → Scourge → Verge → Purge → Splurge), it overlays the current Strawmap (the “strawman roadmap” maintained by the Ethereum Foundation). The new roadmap shows us a vast and far-reaching engineering panorama for Ethereum’s future. In short, the general direction was still broadly the same before; however, by today, priorities and implementation paths have changed noticeably, and several things that didn’t exist at all in 2023 have emerged.
