On January 3, news from OKX Ventures announced a strategic investment in the liquidity staking protocol Haedal built on Sui. Haedal focuses on providing users with efficient liquidity staking infrastructure, supporting users to stake SUI to Validators for consensus rewards while unlocking the potential of liquidity staking tokens (LST) for participation in the DeFi ecosystem.

3. Anon Cast founder launches completely anonymous social platform Anon World on Farcaster

On January 3, news from The Block reported that blockchain developer Kartik Patel launched Anon World, a social platform based on Farcaster focused on anonymous interactions. Anon World is built on the Farcaster protocol, expanding Patel's earlier project Anoncast, introducing a Reddit-like interface that facilitates community-driven discussions while maintaining user anonymity. The core of the platform's architecture is the mandatory use of zero-knowledge proof (ZK) credentials, which are stored locally in the user's browser and do not collect any metadata or wallet information. This means users must hold specific ERC20 tokens to post. In the initial phase, the platform supports ERC20 tokens on the Base network but plans to expand support for other blockchain networks and credential types.
