a man who operated a cryptocurrency Ponzi scheme in Texas and squandered investors' funds on luxury goods and gambling trips has been denied bankruptcy discharge. Legal experts say this proves that bankruptcy cannot be a "safe haven" for cryptocurrency fraud.

Anatoly "Toly" Yakovenko, co-founder of Solana, called for punishment of Solana validators who delay slots, steal rewards, and slow down the network. Yakovenko called for punishment because he was frustrated with validators using complex delay strategies to gain extra fees and high-value transactions. Intentional slot delays have become very annoying, to the point where one validator created a dashboard to showcase this issue. Since August 5 - Solana epoch 829, the average slot time has increased by 2.5%. Some complain, "The price of SOL should rise, not the block time." An observer asked if these delays would trigger a 2.0 version of "Intentional Leader Reward Boost (ILRB)." ILRB is a time strategy that some validators use when they intentionally delay block production. By extending slot times to over 400 milliseconds as expected by Solana, they deliberately delay the delay time and allow them to unfairly pack more transactions in their blocks to get higher fees or rewards. Yakovenko suggests "defaulting to discard these blocks after 10 slots" as a punishment for slow but influential validators. He has also repeatedly called for economic penalties against validators who behave improperly. Currently, the Solana developer store Anza has proposed a series of proposals to consider implementing a slashing mechanism in the network, punishing validators by deducting their stake, but this also poses risks to SOL stakers.

This trend is becoming more apparent with the rise of Hyperliquid and may change investors' behavior in the coming months.
