Solana Transaction V1 (SIMD-0385) Goes Live on Mainnet

Author

Anza, the Solana client development team, announced on X that Transaction V1, also known as SIMD-0385, is live on the mainnet.

The upgrade increases the maximum transaction size from 1,232 bytes to 4,096 bytes, enabling ZK proofs, large multisignature transactions, BLS signatures, and confidential transfers that previously required multiple transactions to complete in a single atomic operation.

It also moves resource usage parameters, including compute unit limits, priority fees, loaded account data size, and heap size, into the transaction header instead of submitting them through compute budget instructions.

ChainCatcher reports these changes are part of the SIMD-0385 release.

Russian Central Bank Flags Crypto as Financial Market Risk

Author

Russia's central bank has identified cryptocurrencies as a financial market risk in its assessment of the main directions for developing the country's financial markets for 2027 and 2028–2029, according to ChainCatcher.

The bank notes concern that Russians are increasingly using stablecoins and other digital assets as substitutes for the ruble. It cautions that investing in digital currencies can result in a total loss with no guarantor, and points out that cryptocurrencies operate across borders, limiting the enforceability of state restrictions. The absence of a unified global regulatory framework, it says, can foster a shadow market. The bank also proposes criminal liability for individuals who organize digital-currency circulation without authorization and administrative penalties for market participants who violate the rules.

US Stocks Slip as AI Pace Slows, Oil Rises and Yields Edge Higher

Author

U.S. stocks closed lower on Monday as investors weighed a slower pace of artificial intelligence development, with Middle East tensions lifting oil prices and the 10-year Treasury yield briefly moving above 5%.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 152.09 points, or 0.29%, to 52,421.2. The S&P 500 dropped 37 points, or 0.48%, to 7,619.98, and the Nasdaq Composite lost 146.62 points, or 0.56%, to 26,186.41.

Chip stocks were broadly weaker, with Nvidia down 3.4%, AMD down 4.4%, Broadcom down 4.8% and Micron Technology down 5.3%. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index fell 5.9%.

Among large-cap tech names, Meta rose 2.7%, Alphabet gained 3.2%, Microsoft added nearly 2% and Apple edged up 0.2%, while Tesla fell 1.8% and Amazon lost 1.3%.

In energy markets, Brent crude briefly climbed toward $110 a barrel after a Saudi Arabia pipeline was attacked and shut before pulling back to $106.09, up 1.4%. West Texas Intermediate rose 1.6% to $101.74.

The 10-year Treasury yield touched about 5.011%, its first move above that level since 2023, before easing to around 4.96%. The shift reflected rising concerns about inflation, deficits and the Federal Reserve's rate outlook. Markets awaited this week's FOMC meeting, with economists broadly projecting a 25-basis-point increase to a 3.75% to 4% range and futures implying roughly a 90% probability.

Gold prices were pressured as rate expectations rose. Spot gold fell 0.9% to $4,305 an ounce, while New York gold futures declined about 1.3% to $4,350. The dollar strengthened, with the dollar index at 99.73, its highest since September 2, before drifting to around 99.5.
