Payment giant Stripe, active in crypto and AI lately, officially launched x402 protocol support on February 11th—letting developers charge AI agents directly with USDC stablecoin settlements on the Base chain. Stripe has integrated the preview version of x402 via its PaymentIntents API, enabling developers to build machine payments with just a handful of lines of code. Use cases include API calls, tool usage, web scraping, and content access. Human-to-agent transactions appear together on the Stripe dashboard, with near-zero fees, instant settlement, and no chargebacks. Stripe Product Manager Jeff Weinstein noted the rollout starts with Base + USDC, with plans to add more protocols, blockchains, and currencies later. Stripe is also ramping up its stablecoin infrastructure: it’s incubating Tempo, a Layer 1 blockchain in partnership with Paradigm, focused on global stablecoin payments (with ambitions to replace systems like SWIFT). The Tempo testnet is live now, and the mainnet is

February 11 — According to Coinbob Popular Address Monitoring, the largest on-chain gold short whale (address: 0xfc66..., nicknamed "On-chain Stockholder") recently held ~$80M in short positions across various on-chain stocks and commodities, plus ~$40M in crypto positions (ETH, SOL, etc.). The address has realized ~$12.7M in profits this month. Over the past few days, the whale has continued to boost its PAXG (on-chain gold) short position, growing from $24.9M to $30.3M. Its short position in GOLD (tokenized gold asset) has also held steady at ~$10.5M. Notably, the whale has built a ~$36M short position on the "ETH/SOL exchange rate" by shorting ETH and longing SOL simultaneously—this position has already generated significant unrealized profits. Current key holdings: - 5x PAXG: ~$30.3M position, avg entry $4974, ~$520k unrealized loss - 20x ETH: ~$18.8M position, avg entry $2043, ~$270k unrealized gain - 20x SOL: ~$18M position, avg entry $80.6, ~$610k unrealized gain - 5

February 11 – Per the Coinbob Popular Address Monitor, as HYPE’s price continues to decline, one of the largest on-chain whales (suspected of HYPE listing insider trading) has seen unrealized losses widen to $13.7 million. The address currently holds a 5x leveraged long position on HYPE: position size ~$39.7 million, average entry price $38.67, and current unrealized losses of ~171%. Recently, the whale has repeatedly withdrawn collateral from Hyperliquid, pushing its liquidation price up from $20 to $26.15. It now sits just 9.1% away from a margin call. Notably, even when HYPE previously surged sharply (nearly letting the whale break even), it never closed the position. Background: The whale went long on HYPE **before its October 23 Robinhood listing last year** – its entry price was immediately breached, and it’s remained in unrealized loss territory ever since, with no position adjustments or reductions (continuing to "hodl" to date). Its peak unrealized loss neared $26 mil
