PANews reported on March 12 that, according to The Block, developers of Gnosis Chain deployed an upgraded version of Dencun on the network to activate 3 types of Blob transactions on the sidechain to help further expand dApps. The content-based platform Blob.Fm was the first Gnosis Chain dApp to leverage blobs on the web, showcasing their use cases. Stefan George, co-founder of Gnosis Chain, said: "Dencun has been activated, and users can now use blobs to extend Gnosis or use blob.fm to post funny pictures. ” These blob transactions, also known as EIP-4844 (or protodanksharding), are scheduled to go live on the Ethereum mainnet and activate the Dencun upgrade at 21:55 CST on March 13. Blobs will be an add-on feature on the network, increasing data availability without impacting the existing Ethereum infrastructure, enabling cheaper transactions in Layer 2 rollups. The upgrade will help make decentralized applications more cost-effective and available to Layer 2 users.

PANews news on January 25, the Ethereum Foundation issued an announcement on the Dencun upgrade of Sepolia and Holesky, the Decun upgrade has been launched on the Goerli Testnet at 14:32 Beijing time on January 17, 2024, and the Sepolia and Holesky Testnet will be upgraded in the next two weeks. Dencun will be activated on Sepolia on epoch 132608 (06:51 GMT on February 1) and on Holesky at Epoch 29696 (19:35 CST on February 7). Assuming the Sepolia and Holesky upgrades go well, Dencun will be placed on the EthereumMainnet next.

PANews reported on November 3 that according to The Block, the jury has begun to consider seven counts of fraud and conspiracy facing SBF. The jury can reach a verdict at any time, but if they do not reach a verdict by 8:30 a.m. CST on Friday, the deliberations will continue on Monday. Twelve jurors must agree on each of the seven counts before a verdict can be reached. If convicted on all counts, SBF faces up to 115 years in prison, which prosecutors say is "one of the largest financial fraud cases in U.S. history." In closing arguments, the prosecution said SBF deliberately conspired to defraud FTX's customers, lenders, and investors, while the defense argued that SBF made mistakes but acted in "good faith." In addition, in another trial, which is currently scheduled for March 2024, Bankman-Fried faces five additional criminal charges, including defrauding customers in derivatives trading, securities fraud against FTX investors, and three counts of conspiracy.
