Welcome back to another edition of the ValiDAO Digest!

Each week, we update our dear readers with all the major developments happening within the ecosystems where we operate, provided by your very own local, organic, seed-oil-free validator.

Story

Story's final testnet, Odyssey, has officially gone live after 247M transactions, 21M+ wallets, 1M+ IPAssets on Illiad.

Throughout the Illiad testnet, countless projects building across AI, IPFi, and creator apps have deployed on Story.

Initia

With mainnet coming up, Initia has announced two new projects building their very own Interwoven Rollups. The first of which is Kamigotchi, a fully on-chain gaming universe.

Additionally RAVE has announced it's very own high-throughput rollup built upon the Interwoven Stack.

Stargaze

Stargaze has released it's Marketplace v2 Upgrade, creating a more flexible and user-friendly interchain marketplace.

Marketplace v2 introduces additional functionality such as support for more assets, real-time pricing, UI improvements, a collection offers revamp, and much more.

Eigenlayer

Eigenlayer has wrapped up Programmatic Incentives for the month of October, with over 14M Eigen distributed to 140,000 restakers.

Eigenlayer has also launched the Eigen Economy Dashboard, which provides transparent, legible, and real-time view of the key metrics in the ecosystem.

Hyperliquid

Hyperliquid has reached an all-time high interest rate at over $1.5B even after the points program having ended.

Hyperliquid still dominates the on-chain perps market, with over $10B in 7-day derivatives volume, multiples higher than competitors and even rivaling major CEXs.

Celestia

Celestia had their one year anniversary, nearly in conjunction with the mainnet launch of Eclipse and Astria.

Over the past year, 20+ rollups have begun to use Celestia for DA settlement with Eclipse, LightLink, and Orderly contributing the most to data posted.

That's it for this week!

As always, we're committed to providing free-range, locally sourced, and seed-oil-free consensus services from geographically diverse locations.

Until next time!
