February 10th, Polymarket CLO Neal Kumar posted on X platform, stating that a lawsuit has been filed in federal court against the state of Massachusetts. The U.S. Congress has granted CFTC exclusive jurisdiction over event contracts rather than individual states. Since these belong to a national market, key issues must be resolved in federal court. Attempts by states such as Massachusetts and Nevada to shut down Polymarket US and other prediction markets through state courts cannot change federal law and would miss the opportunity to develop future markets. While addressing these important issues in federal court, Neal Kumar expressed continued willingness to engage with other states and advocate for user rights.

February 10th, Cathie Wood, also known as "Wood Sister," stated in her latest podcast that Bitcoin is not the traditional "digital gold" in a literal sense, and therefore, its short-term behavior does not align with that of gold. From 2019 to the present, the correlation coefficient of Bitcoin's and gold's returns is only 0.14. This is precisely the value of Bitcoin as a diversifying asset: low-correlation assets can enhance the risk-adjusted returns of the overall portfolio. She pointed out that the key to successful diversification is to add new assets with low correlation, and Bitcoin fits this criterion.Furthermore, Cathie Wood defines Bitcoin as an asset that embodies "three revolutions in one":Global digital, sovereign monetary system;Adding a new layer to the internet stack to support native currency and intelligent agent/commerce;A new asset class (with Bitcoin as the most secure, largest network representing encrypted assets).She describes Bitcoin as being in the early stages of the innovation S-curve. Like all historically disruptive technologies, it experiences volatility, frequent pullbacks, but this is a normal part of the growth path rather than a signal of its demise.

February 10, a member of the Ethereum Foundation, ladislaus.eth, posted that Ethereum is advancing a key but relatively low-profile architectural shift: moving from executing all transactions in a block by nodes to confirming correctness of execution through zkEVM proofs. The related proposal is supported by EIP-8025 (Optimistic Execution Proofs), allowing validators at the consensus layer to choose to validate multiple-client zk proofs instead of running a full execution layer, without requiring an upgrade or fork.This mechanism is expected to significantly reduce node hardware and sync costs, benefiting independent validators and home nodes, and laying the groundwork for future L1 execution scalability, ePBS (planned for the Glamsterdam upgrade), and native Rollups. The Ethereum L1-zkEVM roadmap is targeted for 2026, with the first dedicated conference scheduled for February 11.

February 10th, Chainlink co-founder Sergey Nazarov published a long article on Platform X regarding the current state of the crypto market, expressing that cycles are a normal part of the cryptocurrency industry. The key is that these cycles reveal the industry's level of development and how the trend of the next stage/adoption/value creation will define the industry. Currently, there has been no significant risk management failure leading to the collapse of large institutions or systemic risk propagation. This indicates that the risk management in the crypto industry this time is much better than in the previous cycle.Sergey Nazarov also stated that regardless of price fluctuations, the trend of real-world asset on-chainization is accelerating continuously. This indicates that the on-chainization of real-world assets is not closely related to cryptocurrency prices but has its unique value. This value can grow independently of the market price of Bitcoin or other crypto assets, and this trend will also fundamentally alter the industry landscape.
