According to Odaily, L2BEAT Research Lead donnoh.eth posted on X stating that the Base network status update system has been down for more than 30 hours due to a bug related to a recent upgrade. However, because the on-chain withdrawal period is set to about 7 days, users did not notice this issue for a significant period. This malfunction involves an abnormality in the status update layer but did not immediately affect the user withdrawal experience, which led to the problem not being widely noticed initially. The issue has now sparked discussion in the community, with attention focused on its impact on on-chain data synchronization and operational monitoring mechanisms.

BlockBeats News, May 30th - In its latest report, Grayscale expressed strong optimism for Hyperliquid, believing that it is transitioning from a cryptocurrency perpetual trading platform to a broader blockchain financial infrastructure, with the potential to become a "financial services giant." By 2025, Hyperliquid is projected to achieve approximately $800 million in revenue, process a $29 trillion perpetual futures trading volume, currently holding an open interest of around $7 billion, and rapidly gaining market share in decentralized platforms. Hyperliquid not only competes with centralized exchanges like an exchange in the cryptocurrency perpetual futures field but also expands through the HIP-3 and HIP-4 systems to tokenized stocks, commodities, and prediction markets, offering 24/7 continuous trading, challenging the constraints of traditional Wall Street trading hours. In the report, Grayscale emphasized that Hyperliquid's open architecture allows developers to directly launch new markets, demonstrating strong network effects and innovative potential, surpassing its positioning as a mere cryptocurrency trading platform. Regulation is cited as a key risk and catalyst for Hyperliquid's future growth, with the platform currently shielding U.S. users due to regulatory gray areas. However, with increasing institutional interest from platforms like an exchange and Robinhood and the evolution of regulatory guidance, perpetual products may enter the U.S. market. Hyperliquid is seen as an early blueprint for building a global 24/7 financial market on-chain.
