On October 20th, the artificial intelligence research lab nof1, which focuses on the financial market, began a large-scale model trading test named Alpha Arena on the 18th. This test employed 6 mainstream AI large models (GPT-5, Gemini 2.5 Pro, Grok-4, Claude Sonnet 4.5, DeepSeek V3.1, Qwen3 Max). Each model was given $10,000 in real funds on Hyperliquid and had the same cues and input data. As of the time of this writing, DeepSeek and Grok have both achieved a yield of more than 14% and ranked first and second respectively, while Gemini 2.5 Pro has suffered a loss of 42.57%.

On October 20th, the prediction market Limitless within Base's ecosystem announced over the weekend that it has expanded to BSC and has opened the prediction "Will the'meme coin' Binance Life be listed on Binance Spot this year?" Limitless founder CJ publicly criticized Binance's "listing fee" issue on the 14th and advised developers to "build on Base".

On October 20th, as per Cinder Monitor, a set of addresses that are suspected to belong to Richard Heart (@RichardHeartWin), the initiator of projects like Hex, PulseChain, and PulseX, has transferred 81,000 ETH (valued at $323 million) within the past 5 hours. Analysis indicates that this group of addresses had acquired 132,000 ETH by using 499 million DAI on the blockchain in March 2023, with an average price of $3,770. Apart from 9,500 ETH that were moved through a tornado mixer in the past 6 months, the rest are still in possession.

On October 20th, a Binance co-founder named He Yi clarified in a post on the X platform: "The Same Boat Plan adheres to a relief fund logic rather than compensation. It is designed to provide a meal for some users facing difficult situations. The Same Boat Plan is aimed at specific users who have suffered losses exceeding 30% of their total assets. If you think you are entitled to compensation or fall within the scope of the subsidy announcement, you can bring it up with customer service for further review. Users who attempt to threaten the platform by inciting rights protection due to normal losses will not be included in the assistance range. Due to the large overall user base, all details submitted by users will be reviewed one week later." Currently, many cases of manipulating user emotions, false rights protection but actual extortion, and requesting aid funds have been confirmed to be fraudulent. Be cautious and avoid falling victim to scams.

On October 20th, this morning, Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin published an article introducing the GKR protocol. GKR is a core protocol that makes it possible to obtain fast proofs for ZK-EVM, zk-ML, and other applications. It is suitable for "multi-layer low-level processing + extensive repeated function application" computations (such as hashing and neural networks). It does not require commitment to intermediate layers; only the input and output need to be committed, which significantly improves efficiency. Through optimizations like reducing the sumcheck calculation per round (like Gruen's trick) and Poseidon2 batch processing, it is theoretically proven that the Poseidon hash overhead is only 15 times (traditional STARKs are 100 times). In practice, it may drop below 10 times, and as the data volume increases, the overhead approaches zero.
