According to The Information, TSMC (TSM.N) will develop AI chip packaging technology.In the past, packaging has been regarded as a relatively conventional process in semiconductor manufacturing, but with the surge in AI demand, chip design companies need to integrate more processors and high-bandwidth memory into increasingly large and complex packages. Advanced packaging has become one of the industry's most critical bottlenecks. Intel has developed a packaging technology called Embedded Multi-Die Interconnect Bridge (EMIB).This technology uses small silicon bridges to establish high-speed connections between processors and memory, enabling support for larger-scale multi-chip designs, thus creating more powerful AI chips and helping chip designers achieve supply chain diversification, which has attracted the attention of potential customers such as NVIDIA (NVDA.O).Insiders say that within TSMC, engineers refer to this advanced packaging project as "EMIB-like" and have discussed this solution with some customers.

According to official news, the prediction market Polymarket announced a significant adjustment to its settlement mechanism for cryptocurrency price fluctuation markets starting from August 7, to protect market integrity. From midnight UTC on that day, the affected markets will no longer settle based on a single price snapshot at a specific time but will instead use a time-weighted average price.Markets of different durations correspond to different TWAP windows: all cryptocurrency 5-minute markets will use a 30-second TWAP, 15-minute markets will use a 60-second TWAP, and 4-hour markets will also use a 60-second TWAP. The previous single snapshot settlement method was prone to price manipulation during periods of low liquidity, and this change is a proactive reinforcement of the market integrity system by Polymarket after facing regulatory scrutiny.To support this transition, Polymarket will inject $1 million in liquidity rewards into all affected markets throughout August. On the technical side, Chainlink TWAP testnet data streams are now available, and mainnet data streams along with Polymarket real-time data stream services will go live on August 4, at which point developers can access TWAP prices directly through Chainlink Data Streams or Polymarket's public WebSocket.

Aave founder Stani stated that the recent gradual contraction of low adoption assets and networks on Aave should not be interpreted as a judgment on any L1 or L2.

Atkins emphasized that legislation is the only way to prevent the regulatory framework from changing with each new administration and expressed optimism about the bill's eventual passage.Currently, the Clear Act passed the House of Representatives last July with a vote of 294-134 and was approved by the Senate Banking Committee this May with a vote of 15-9, but it has not yet been voted on by the full Senate (which requires 60 votes to pass).
