Key Takeaways XRP Open Interest saw a $2.46 billion wipeout, yet price is holding key demand between $3.10-$3.20, signaling strong spot absorption. On the 22nd of July, Ripple’s [XRP] Open Interest (OI) ripped to a record $10.94 billion after chopping sideways for months. But the momentum didn’t stick. OI just nuked to $8.48 billion, marking a $2.46 billion wipeout in under a week. That shakeout dragged XRP down 13% from the $3.60 local top. And it wasn’t a fluke. XRP/ETH rolled down 7.54% as Ethereum [ETH] pulled a clean 11% bounce off its $3,530 base. The rotation was clear: Capital…
Sui Research has introduced a cryptographic framework that could offer protection against quantum computing threats without requiring hard forks, address changes or key updates.Cryptographer Kostas Chalkias wrote in a Monday X post that the recent research paper he co-authored with Sui Research constitutes “a major breakthrough in quantum transition of ‘some’ blockchains.” He explained that while the new approach would apply to Sui, Solana, Near, Cosmos and other networks, it would not apply to Ethereum and Bitcoin.“As far as I know, this is the first backward-compatible quantum-safe upgrade path for blockchain wallets to avoid future forks or freezing accounts,” Chalkias…
The Polygon Heimdall V2 mainnet, the consensus client for the Polygon proof-of-stake chain, went down on Wednesday due to a suspected “consensus bug,” the Polygon team said.

The disruption lasted one hour and was caused by an unidentified validator’s exit from the network, Polygon spokespersons told Cointelegraph. Block production on the Bor layer never halted and Polygon’s block explorers are…
