On October 8, StarkWare announced that it is actively exploring the possibility of Starknet evolving into an independent post-quantum L1 to gain greater control over its own security. The community has launched a non-binding poll to assess whether STRK holders support further research in this direction.
Odaily News: The Starknet community has initiated a 7-day non-binding vote to poll STRK holders on whether they support further research into the possibility of transitioning Starknet from an Ethereum L2 to an independent quantum-resistant L1.The proposal notes that Starknet currently employs hash-based STARK proofs and native account abstraction technology, giving its core protocol quantum-resistant capabilities, and user accounts can also adopt quantum-resistant signatures without requiring protocol upgrades. However, the parts that depend on Ethereum, such as its cross-chain bridge and data availability, remain constrained by the progress of Ethereum's quantum-resistant upgrades. Transitioning to an independent L1 is expected to eliminate this dependency.The proposal makes clear that regardless of which approach is ultimately adopted, STRK will continue to serve as the network's native token, no new tokens will be issued, and the cross-chain bridge from Ethereum to Starknet will remain open.This vote is intended solely to gauge community sentiment and is not a formal decision to transition. If the vote passes, the team will initiate further research and propose a detailed plan; if it does not receive support, the team will continue advancing quantum-resistant upgrade work under the existing L2 architecture.
PPP Prediction Market Tool monitoring shows that Polymarket's "StandX will issue a token before the end of 2026" probability has dropped to 3%, a 58% decline in 24 hours.If StandX officially launches a token before 11:59 PM ET on the date specified in the title, the prediction market will resolve as "Yes"; otherwise, it will resolve as "No."Only tokens officially issued by StandX qualify; stablecoins, meme coins, liquid staking tokens (LSTs), and synthetic tokens do not count.The token must have been publicly launched and be actually tradable; merely publishing an announcement does not meet the resolution criteria.Resolution is primarily based on StandX official information, with reference to consensus reports from credible media.Previous news: StandX announced it will not issue a token, and perpetual contracts will enter reduce-only mode starting October 20.Join the PPP signal push community to stay one step ahead and seize the initiative.

Odaily News: StandX co-founder and CEO Aaron Gong posted on X, stating: "Regarding this decision for StandX not to conduct a TGE, I want to be candid with everyone. Without external capital backing, our TVL reached a peak of $200 million. The team has achieved commendable results, but we still fell short of our expectation of entering the industry's top three. Based on the project's current fundamentals, we could indeed proceed with a token launch. But if we cannot deliver long-term value and instead profit through token issuance and short-term speculation, we would be leaving the cost to our users and community. That would be irresponsible both externally and internally, and it goes against my values. Most of our past revenue has already been distributed to users through SIP-2 / SIP-3 subsidies. For this airdrop, in addition to the surplus on the project's books, I will also contribute personally to give back as much as possible to the community that has supported us all along. All user funds are safe. We will ensure an orderly wind-down and clearly announce the specific arrangements for fund withdrawals, the airdrop, and the cessation of all services. Thank you to every user and team member. I regret that we could not reach the position we had hoped for. We will do our best to finish things properly."

Eligibility for the airdrop will go live at 00:00 UTC on October 26, with the claiming period running from 00:00 on November 1 to 08:00 on December 31. Any unclaimed allocations will be forfeited if not redeemed within the designated timeframe.

— The Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) has launched public consultation on proposed capital, custody and trading requirements for crypto platforms, with the rules aimed at complementing digital asset legislation passed in April to expand oversight of the industry.The proposals include three capital models, restrictions on platforms conducting proprietary trading, and quarterly reporting of wallets holding client assets. ASIC also proposes allowing offshore custody and is seeking feedback on safeguards in the event that an overseas parent company or affiliate fails.One of the models would require platforms that do not adopt qualifying third-party custody arrangements to hold at least A$14 million (about US$9.7 million) in net tangible assets, or 10% of average revenue, whichever is higher. Feedback is due by November 27, and ASIC plans to publish final standards and guidance in March 2027.The related law will take effect on April 8, 2027, and operators must apply for a license by October 7 of the same year, while being allowed to continue operating during ASIC's review of their applications.
