Odaily reports: When responding to the Genius App community invitation on X, CZ stated that the team had invited him to create a public account, but he declined the proposal out of concern that he would once again receive a large number of meaningless token donations.

Monitoring shows that in the predict.fun "NBA regular season Lakers vs. Pistons" prediction event, the probability of the Lakers defeating the Pistons is currently at 39%.

At 7:00 AM tomorrow, the 2026–2027 NBA regular season features the Detroit Pistons hosting the Los Angeles Lakers. Before the game, the Lakers hold an 8-2 record on a four-game win streak, having defeated the Trail Blazers 124-118 in their last outing; the Pistons opened 6-2 and rank third in the Eastern Conference, coming off a 106-112 loss to the 76ers. In their two meetings last season, the Pistons won both (128-106, 113-110).

In terms of roster, Lakers star Doncic has averaged 40.1 points this season and dropped 53 points against the Trail Blazers in his last game, but due to lower back tightness, his status for this game is questionable (50% chance of playing), and a decision will likely be made at game time. For the Pistons, starting center Jalen Duren has missed six consecutive games due to a right hamstring strain, and whether he can return for this game still requires pre-game evaluation; the team mainly relies on Cunningham to orchestrate the offense, and he has averaged 24.0 points and 7.6 assists this season.

Odaily Report: Michael Saylor, founder and executive chairman of Bitcoin treasury company Strategy, has once again posted Bitcoin Tracker-related information and wrote: "Connecting the dots." According to previous patterns, Strategy typically discloses Bitcoin holdings change information the day after such messages are posted.

Odaily reports: DeFi researcher Ignas posted that the recent sharp decline in PONS and STONK may tempt investors to buy the dip. However, token launch platforms are typically short-lived, cyclical products that ultimately tend to fade out of the market. Citing projects such as Polkastarter and Avalaunch as examples, most platforms struggle to recover after hype subsides. Currently, only a few projects such as Pump.fun and MetaDAO have successfully achieved sustained development.

Ignas suggests that if investors remain bullish on PONS and STONK, they should focus on their fee revenue and actual income, and consider investing only after user adoption and market demand pick up again, rather than simply buying the dip due to price declines.

Odaily: Vitalik posted on X platform stating that if the main reason for holding ETH is to treat it as a store of value (SoV) asset, the primary metric is survivability. He said Ethereum should adopt conservative security tradeoffs, including hash-centric security mechanisms, formal proofs, and a number of rounds exceeding known security requirements by three times, while pursuing partial immutability; high thresholds should be set for precompiles that would expand protocol scope and for in-protocol rewards that could be captured. Vitalik also mentioned that multisig, Kohaku, 8288, and private-AA workflows can improve secure holding, private holding, and holding methods that balance privacy and security for ETH, while FOCIL aims to ensure that coin holders can send transactions; reducing infrastructure dependencies is also part of the decentralization roadmap, and he said that syncing a node running on his laptop took less than six hours and occupied one-eighth of the hard drive space. Vitalik stated that issuing more RWA and native decentralized assets natively on L1, as well as conveniently, securely, and trustlessly converting between ETH and other assets or using other assets with ETH as collateral, both help improve the utility of holding ETH; at the same time, the impact of fast block times on centralization needs to be carefully evaluated. He called decentralization and CROPS (censorship and capture resistance, open source, privacy, and security) the social reasons for caring about Ethereum, and said this is the direct source of the SoV property of holding ETH.
