Four Major South Korean Banks to Provide Exchange Rate Data to DeFi Platforms
Four major South Korean banks will be involved in a joint project involving a partnership with Chainlink (LINK) and South Korean fintech platform Center Prime. It is reported that Shinhan Bank, IBK Bank, KEB Hana Bank and NH Bank will input USD/KRW exchange rate data into Chainlink nodes in real time, and DeFi providers can access these decentralized exchange rate data when creating smart contracts on the blockchain platform. Reporting media D Daily stated that this move may bring more Korean users to DeFi, and service providers will be encouraged because their exchange rates are provided by large commercial banks.

Data: The consumption of Ethereum Gas in the year is approaching the historical high
Messari researcher Wilson Withiam said that Ethereum is "on the verge of breaking the previous year's record for total gas consumption." The increase in gas prices is a double-edged sword for ethereum: On the one hand, the researchers note, it does mean growth, but on the other hand, it also increases the network’s security budget. Gas reached its peak in 2018, and the current Gas payment fee is only 2,000 ETH away from that time, which may set a new record. The income of miners has also soared in the past two months. According to the data provided by Glassnode, the income of miners has reached a new high.

Justin Sun responds to "TRON avoids paying Twitter hacker bounty": The bounty has been revoked due to cooperation with FBI law enforcement
Justin Sun responded to Cointelegraph’s report on “TRON Blocked Relevant Persons from Obtaining $1 Million Twitter Hacking Bounty” by saying: “We originally offered bounties to motivate people to find hacking clues, but since the FBI is now supporting this investigation, we have no choice. , can only cooperate with law enforcement. In order not to interfere with the FBI's investigation, the bounty has been revoked. I hope the FBI will catch the hacker as soon as possible."
Anonymous sources contacted Cointelegraph reporters asking to get in touch with Tron, hoping to receive a $1 million bounty for identifying those responsible for the Twitter hacking incident last week. Cointelegraph reached out to Tron on the matter after examining the highly credible evidence it presented. Surprisingly, Tron representatives always find various excuses to avoid the source, who wants to provide legitimate information on the hack that the company claims to solve. Tron representatives declined to obtain any relevant new information, either when speaking to Cointelegraph or the source himself.
