The decentralized liquidity staking protocol Diva Staking announced on social media that it will shut down the project and will not launch the mainnet. The official statement said that this decision was made after thorough discussion and apologized to the early stakers who had pre-deposited in the vault, stating that related deposits can be withdrawn through Enzyme without further waiting.The official statement mentioned that the team has been operating for about two and a half years without income or salary since the funds were exhausted in mid-2024, with three members pushing the project forward. Diva went live on the Hoodi testnet earlier this summer and has been running stably for about four months without any issues, but failed to gain support from large institutions for the mainnet launch. The three-member team also could not bear the costs of a new round of audits and mainnet operations, thus choosing to wind down rather than risk launching.The announcement also stated that the demand structure for LST has changed after the Shanghai upgrade. As of the end of June this year, BitMine, Coinbase, and Binance together accounted for about 30% of the total staked ETH, with approximately 11.5%, 10.9%, and 7.9% respectively, which is comparable to the concentration when the market was concerned about Lido's share being close to one-third. The official also congratulated Lido for advancing Simple DVT and opening up to independent stakers.

According to a report by Reuters, the Bank of Korea warned that if large American technology companies slow down their capital expenditures in the field of artificial intelligence next year, South Korea's semiconductor exports could decrease by $50 billion to $100 billion compared to previous forecasts. The Bank of Korea simulated this scenario in a written response submitted to National Assembly member Ahn Doo-hyeon, assuming a 10% drop in the unit price of South Korean semiconductor products.In this scenario, South Korea's GDP growth rate in 2027 would be reduced by about 0.4 percentage points, and the current account surplus would be far below the previously estimated $430 billion. South Korea's chip exports account for about half of the country's total exports. Capital expenditures by Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Meta, and Oracle are expected to increase from $40 billion last year to $80 billion this year, reaching $110 billion next year.The Bank of Korea pointed out that there is still significant uncertainty regarding AI demand trends and the cycle of the memory chip industry. If technology giants cut back on investments in AI infrastructure, South Korea's chip exports and overall economic growth could be impacted.

Liquid Capital founder Yi Lihua stated that although he still holds a bullish view on the current market trend, the cryptocurrency industry is indeed in a trough, and AI has attracted a large number of talents and funds.Reflecting on recent market judgments, he mentioned that he has maintained a correction judgment around $86,000 for the past two months, similar to the judgment that the rebound ended around $84,000 in May. Since calling for a bottom on ETH at $1,450 more than a year ago, there has only been one obvious mistake, and he emphasized that one should grow from mistakes.Yi Lihua believes that most markets do not fit the Buffett-style value investing, and the performance of the cryptocurrency industry in recent years has been the same. He stated, "Patience is the best strategy."

Starting from November 23, the AI features on mobile, login, and tab synchronization will gradually be disabled, and the team will fully shift its focus to the AI browser Dia.Arc was launched in 2022, initially limited to Mac users through invitations, and was fully opened in 2023, with plans to gradually launch on Windows and mobile platforms in 2024. The product design includes a vertical tab bar, independent workspaces, automatic tab organization, split-screen browsing, and allows users to directly modify the appearance of web pages. The official disclosure indicated that Arc had over 1 million weekly active users.Founder Josh Miller stated in 2025 that Arc was too complex for ordinary users, with a high learning cost, and only 5.52% of daily active users frequently used multiple workspaces.

The reason for the shutdown was that browser security in the AI era requires continuous investment, and engineering and security resources must be concentrated on Dia.
