Pons Unveils V2 Upgrade Plan: To Introduce UniV4, Support RWA Pairing, and Comprehensively Optimize Token Issuance Mechanism.

1 hours ago

According to official announcements, Pons has unveiled its Pons V2 upgrade, designed to enhance token issuance and trading experiences on Robinhood Chain. The team noted that since the protocol’s launch, it has faced multiple attacks, but with support from infrastructure partners, the platform has returned to stability. The Pons V2 contract has not yet been deployed; it is currently undergoing audits by two firms and is projected to launch next week. This upgrade brings comprehensive optimizations focused on liquidity, developer incentives, and asset types. Pons V2 will use an ETH-denominated Bonding Curve mechanism, removing trading restrictions for regular users while implementing configurable position limits exclusively for developer wallets to improve trading fluidity. Additionally, the new version will support UniV4 Hooks, enabling creators and the protocol to default to receiving fees in ETH, avoiding receipt of meme tokens and associated sell pressure; users will also have the option to earn yields in USDG or other real-world asset (RWA) tokens. Pons will also support deployment of any trading pair, allowing creators to issue tokens paired with assets like USDG, NVDA, AAPL, and HOOD directly, providing infrastructure support for the RWA and "memestock" ecosystems on Robinhood Chain. Regarding token lifecycle, V2 tokens will initially operate on the Bonding Curve; once fundraising reaches 4.2 ETH, they will automatically "graduate" and migrate to Uniswap V4 liquidity pools, with associated liquidity positions permanently locked to prevent liquidity withdrawal. Furthermore, Pons V2 will restore its previously paused CTO function, introduce a 3-day timelock mechanism, and plans to launch an optional reflection token feature—via an optional tax on buy/sell transactions—to provide revenue distribution and holding incentives for ecosystem partners. The team added that the above features may still be adjusted based on audit outcomes.

BitMEX announced it will officially shut down on September 23, having halted new user registrations and initiated an orderly liquidation.

BitMEX announced it will officially shut down its trading platform at 04:00 UTC on September 23, 2026. New user registrations have been suspended effective immediately. Following a strategic review of its business and the broader cryptocurrency industry, the board of BitMEX’s parent company HDR Global Trading Limited has decided to close the trading platform. BitMEX strongly advises all users to close their positions and withdraw funds as soon as possible. The platform will continue normal operations until the shutdown time, but starting at 04:00 UTC on August 26, 2026, it will impose risk restrictions: users will not be able to open new positions, only reduce existing ones. After this date, BitMEX will gradually liquidate existing positions to ensure an orderly market exit; positions not closed by the shutdown time will be liquidated immediately. The platform states it will not be liable for trading losses caused by users’ failure to close positions in a timely manner. Additionally, illiquid contracts will be settled in advance, with relevant users notified per usual practice. Post-shutdown, BitMEX will cease all trading services, retaining only asset custody functions. Users can still log in to their accounts to view wallet balances and historical transaction records, and continue to withdraw assets. All BMEX staking has been unblocked, with related tokens returned to users’ accounts. For users who have completed KYC but not withdrawn funds by the shutdown time, BitMEX will charge an account maintenance fee: the monthly fee will be the higher of $50 or a 1% annual rate. If users fail to withdraw funds long-term, the platform may further increase fees in the future, with advance notice provided.
