Reppo Foundation Receives $20 Million Funding Commitment to Address Training Data Bottleneck Issue Using Prediction Markets

2 hours ago

**Reppo Foundation Lands $20M Strategic Funding from Bolts Capital to Scale AI Training Data Infrastructure Tied to Prediction Markets** The Reppo Foundation announced Wednesday (April 23) it has secured a $20 million strategic funding commitment from Bolts Capital to advance protocol development and ecosystem expansion—with a focus on AI training data infrastructure centered on prediction markets. Reppo’s core mission is to turn human judgment into a verifiable, incentive-aligned data source via prediction markets, addressing the critical gap in high-quality data for AI training. The project is building a decentralized data network (Datanets) to process multimodal content (text, images, audio, video) and enable AI model training, evaluation, and fine-tuning. Reppo Labs Co-Founder RG noted prediction markets could hit $1 trillion in annual transaction volume by the end of the decade, expanding beyond sports and events to information and opinion markets. The platform has already processed over $2 million in transactions in the past month, validating its model’s feasibility. Reppo also plans to let AI agents and robots directly compensate humans for opinions and feedback via crypto-economic incentives—cutting reliance on centralized data providers. The project has backing from Protocol Labs, CMS Holdings, and other institutions.

Analyst: Bitcoin's key resistance level is $80,000, Whales and ETF Investors are Continuously Buying

As of April 23, Bitcoin is inching toward $80k in a gradual rebound—analysts note this signals a meaningful market structure improvement, though investor confidence still faces tests. On April 21, spot Bitcoin ETFs posted net inflows of over $11.8M (six straight days of gains), while spot Ethereum ETFs saw ~$43.4M in net inflows (nine consecutive days of positive flows). Glassnode says Bitcoin has broken above its $78.1k "realized market value" for the first time since mid-January—marking a notable reversal after months of weak structure. Still, the short-term holder cost basis sits at $80.1k, acting as direct overhead resistance. Glassnode analysts note a move to $80k would put over 54% of recent buyers in the black—a threshold historically tied to the end of bear market rebounds. Short-term holder profits have surged to $4.4M per hour, nearly triple the $1.5M seen at each of this year’s local tops. Bitfinex analysts are more bullish on the medium term: Wallets holding 1,000+ BT

JPMorgan Chase: KelpDAO Incident Leads to $20 Billion DeFi TVL Evaporation, Funds Inclined to Choose USDT for Safety

April 23 — Morgan Stanley analysts noted in a Wednesday report that ongoing DeFi exploits and sluggish growth are still curbing institutional interest in the space, led by Managing Director Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou. A recent major hack tied to Kelp DAO wiped out roughly $20 billion in DeFi Total Value Locked (TVL) in just days, the report said. The attack exploited a cross-chain bridge vulnerability: the hacker minted $292 million in uncollateralized rsETH tokens, then used them as collateral on the Aave lending protocol to borrow real ETH, resulting in ~$230 million in defaults. “The event triggered capital outflows from a liquidity pool with no direct exposure to the targeted asset, showing DeFi’s interconnected nature can be a vulnerability during adverse events,” the analyst added. LayerZero and blockchain security researchers have linked the hack to North Korea’s Lazarus Group. Some stolen funds have been frozen, while the rest are being shuffled between multiple wallets and

Lido: EarnETH Loses Around 9% of Assets in KelpDAO Incident, Core Staked Assets Safe

On April 23, Lido issued an update on the KelpDAO security incident, noting its Earn series vaults are collaborating with the management team to resolve issues tied to rsETH exposure and lending market liquidity crunches. The core staking protocol remains unaffected, with stETH and wstETH secure and stable. Currently, only the EarnETH vault has ~9% of its total value locked (TVL) exposed to rsETH; deposits and withdrawals are temporarily paused pending a resolution. Roughly $70 million in ETH has been recovered from the prior attack, with ongoing efforts to recoup remaining assets and allocate losses. To ease liquidity pressure, the management team has reduced leverage and optimized position structures, cutting wETH debt exposure significantly. Should losses occur, EarnETH will activate a $3 million "first-loss protection mechanism" (covered by the DAO). For other vaults: - DVV and EarnUSD remain unaffected and operational. - The GGV sub-vault is posting negative returns d
