The decentralized finance space is undergoing a critical transformation in 2025, ushering in what many observers call “DeFi 3.0.” While the earlier waves of DeFi focused on decentralized exchanges and liquidity incentives, the next generation is centered on permissionless lending, composability, capital efficiency, and real-time adaptation. As platforms such as Euler, Morpho and Hyperliquid gain traction, the shifts promise to reshape how capital moves, how risk is […]

A critical security flaw in NVIDIA’s Merlin Transformers4Rec framework allows threat actors to execute code remotely with root-level access, raising alarm across the AI ecosystem. The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2025-23298, stems from unsafe deserialization in the model checkpoint loading routine. Attackers exploiting this flaw can submit crafted model files that, when deserialized via Python’s built-in mechanisms, trigger arbitrary command execution within the process’s context. Given that AI […]

Luma Protocol, incubated by PopChain and Nivex, officially entered the market on 20 September 2025, positioning itself as a new architecture in decentralized finance that anchors value in computing power rather than speculative token mechanics. At midday UTC+8 the project launched its pre-sale and, within hours, issued the first mining rewards — signalling a shift from purely token-based incentives toward infrastructure-backed models.

The project’s core proposition is that “Hash Power” — the computational capacity underlying blockchains — becomes a tangible, tradeable asset integrated into DeFi systems. Luma’s model seeks to counterbalance what its promoters describe as the unsustainable cycles of token subsidies that have affected prior generations of DeFi protocols. Underpinning the system, Luma plans to merge capital, computational resource markets, and application layers in a closed-loop infrastructure.

PopChain contributes its identity and settlement capabilities, while Nivex offers liquidity, exchange infrastructure, and compliance support. This strategic alignment aims to deliver an ecosystem where value issuance, transaction execution, and mining resource distribution interlock. According to the announcement, the first mining rewards were disbursed at midnight UTC+8, immediately after launching the pre-sale.

Market reaction to the LUMA token has been volatile. On the MEXC exchange, LUMA traded with a 24-hour jump of 26 per cent, reflecting speculative interest. Yet the token’s 7-day price variance is extremely steep, plunging nearly 99.97 per cent over the week, pointing to high risk and low liquidity stability. The circulating supply and full market capitalisation currently remain opaque.

Critics caution that the concept of tokenizing hash power is not without inherent risk. In the realm of blockchain security, high concentration of mining capacity has historically exposed smaller networks to attacks. The accessibility of mining power through services like NiceHash demonstrates how hash power can be rented and concentrated, creating vulnerability, especially for new entrants. At the same time, mainstream DeFi research underscores systemic risks emerging from leverage, protocol interdependence, and opacity in governance.

Luma’s governance architecture is not fully detailed in public documentation, but the model will need to grapple with decentralised decision-making, hardware centralisation, and incentives for fair participation. Without sufficient safeguards, the protocol may face the same challenges of centralisation, collusion, or exploitability that have troubled other DeFi platforms.

For its part, Nivex has been scaling its ecosystem prior to Luma’s debut. It recently launched a Web3 wallet integrated with PopChain, with plans to embed users into a flow from wallet to liquidity operations to settlement. This vertical integration may benefit Luma by driving demand for the infrastructure stack. Nivex also recently listed the POP/USDT trading pair, anchoring the POP ecosystem that underlies PopChain’s social finance ambitions.

On the supply side, the broader mining industry’s economics are under strain. Electricity, hardware depreciation, and operational costs continue to restrict profitable deployment of hash power. The Cambridge Digital Mining Report underscores that energy cost variance across geographies is a major barrier for expansion. Projects that seek to monetise compute power must navigate this cost differential.

Arada has acquired a 75 percent stake in London-based residential developer Regal as part of a Dhs 2.5 billion investment that marks its first UK foray and second international expansion after Australia. The UK business will be rebranded as Arada London, with an ambition to turbocharge Regal’s pipeline from 10,000 units across 11 projects to over 30,000 within three years.

The acquisition was formalised in a ceremony attended by Sheikh Sultan bin Ahmed bin Sultan Al Qasimi, Chairman of Arada. Arada’s Group CEO, Ahmed Alkhoshaibi, said that more than half of the capital will be channelled into accelerating development and securing new land parcels. He described the London market environment as one presenting “right opportunities to acquire the right sites at the right price”.

Regal’s chief executive, Jonathan Seal, and the existing executive team will remain in post after the transaction. Seal remarked that Arada’s alignment with Regal’s strategic values and long-term vision made it a fitting partner to lead the next phase of growth.

The deal gives Arada an immediate platform in London, tapping into Regal’s diversified portfolio, which spans for-sale residential units, purpose-built student accommodation, and mixed-use regeneration schemes. Among ongoing developments is the Fulton & Fifth project in Wembley, comprising 876 homes of which 40 percent are designated as affordable housing, and Orchard Wharf in Tower Hamlets, which recently secured approval for 1,365 student beds and 200 homes.

Analysts see strategic logic in entering London via acquisition rather than greenfield development, citing the complexities and regulatory friction in the UK housing sector. Arada’s move follows a wave of Gulf-based developers expanding into London, including Damac, Aldar, and Modon, often via partnerships or subsidiaries.

However, entering the London residential market is not without risk. Regal’s 2024 accounts showed £252 million in short-term debt, contrasted against £196 million of investment property, reflecting potential balance-sheet stress. The UK housing sector continues to face headwinds from construction inflation, planning delays, and demand volatility.

Arada has defended the timing. Alkhoshaibi stated that entering markets when sentiment is subdued allows for acquiring desirable assets at lower cost, positioning for upside when conditions recover. He noted that Arada’s approach is to maintain momentum in its UAE operations while layering growth abroad.

Beyond the UK, Arada is also contemplating further regional expansion. The company is reportedly in discussions with Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund about a large mixed-use project in the kingdom. In the UAE itself, Arada plans a Dhs 3 billion development project in Ras Al Khaimah next year, reinforcing its domestic footprint.

MetaMask’s long-awaited native token, MASK, has received confirmation from ConsenSys CEO Joe Lubin that it is on the horizon, stoking anticipation across crypto markets. Lubin suggested the token may arrive sooner than many expect, reawakening speculation about a potential airdrop tied to user activity. Traders have already begun positioning around the move.

Parallel to the MASK buzz, derivatives activity around Aster’s native token has escalated dramatically: futures open interest has expanded by 46 per cent, reflecting aggressive speculative demand.

Bitcoin’s climb toward as high as $113,500 has added momentum to altcoin risk appetite, though analysts warn of resistance near $115,000 as a critical hurdle for sustained upside.

Momentum behind Aster has been fuelled by on‐chain flows and whale accumulation. One address spent over $1.18 million acquiring nearly 595,580 ASTER tokens in a single trade, underscoring deep-pocketed conviction in the token’s trajectory. Aster has also introduced 300x leverage trading for HYPE, drawing comparison and competition with Hyperliquid’s native token ecosystem.

Meanwhile, Hyperliquid’s own tokenomics are under pressure. A major holder transferred around 200,000 HYPE tokens—worth roughly $8.9 million—within two hours, moving the assets toward Aster platforms. The selling pressure from large holders is prompting governance discussions: one proposal suggests burning 45 per cent of HYPE supply to counterbalance impending token unlocks.

Liquidity metrics reflect the competitive dynamics among perpetual DEX platforms. While Hyperliquid historically dominated, new entrants such as Aster, Lighter and edgeX are aggressively capturing share through incentives and token distribution programmes. Some analysts caution that much of Aster’s volume is driven by incentive-seeking rather than long-term retention.

The MASK narrative adds an extra layer of complexity. Decrypt reports that prediction markets assign roughly 32 per cent odds to a token launch by November, indicating widespread uncertainty despite Lubin’s confident tone. MetaMask’s path to decentralisation is expected to involve allocation to active users—those conducting swaps or interacting with dApps—though tokenomics remain unpublished.

Traders are watching to see whether cross-correlations form between MASK speculation and derivative positioning in ASTER and HYPE. If Aster’s futures momentum continues, it may draw further capital away from incumbents, even while regulatory risk looms over token launches.

Aldar Properties has increased its ownership stake in Aldar Estates to 82.55%, acquiring the 17.45% indirect share held by Modon Holding via its wholly-owned subsidiary ADNEC Group. The move solidifies Aldar’s dominance over the region’s largest integrated real-estate service platform.

Aldar Estates, formed through a merger of Aldar, IHC, and ADNEC’s property and facilities management businesses, has seen strong growth since its establishment in 2023. Aldar now holds outright control following the ADNEC-Modon exit.

Under Aldar’s direction, the platform manages roughly 155,000 residential units, and has almost doubled its prime retail and commercial leasable space to two million square metres. Contracts under management are now said to exceed AED 3 billion. These figures reflect ambitious expansion in recurring-income services.

Financially, Aldar Estates delivered revenues of about AED 2.6 billion in 2024, with EBITDA near AED 400 million, forming a growing part of Aldar’s overall strategy to emphasise stable income-streams outside pure property development. Aldar Investment oversees a broader AED 47 billion portfolio of income-generating assets.

Aldar’s Chief Executive of Aldar Investment, Jassem Salah Busaibe, said that the business is well positioned for further scale-up given increasing demand in property, facilities, and community services, along with a rising base of third-party clients. Gordons in landscaping, technical services, security, sustainability consulting and community management have been among the areas where Aldar Estates has expanded its offering.
