[VerifiedX launches Vault feature for vBTC recovery after hacks or mistaken transfers]

Bitcoin infrastructure project VerifiedX unveiled a self-custodial asset recovery Vault feature as part of its mainnet 9.0.0 upgrade. The feature lets Bitcoin holders who store vBTC in the Vault set a delay before an outgoing transfer becomes final, allowing mistaken or unauthorized transfers to be canceled during that window and the assets recovered to a self-custodied address designated by the owner.

VerifiedX introduced the safeguard to reduce the risk of asset losses from wallet hacks or user errors by giving users time to reclaim funds before a transfer is finalized. The upgrade also includes Bitcoin light client verification built into VerifiedX validator software, enabling validators to independently verify Bitcoin block headers, proof-of-work and chain progress.

[Kalshi develops specialized prediction contracts for institutional investors]

Kalshi is developing specialized prediction contracts across financial sectors to attract large funds and corporate clients, The Information reported.

The prediction market platform aims to expand prediction markets as an alternative to traditional financial markets and position them as a tool for institutional investors to hedge potential losses. One example would allow investors to buy legal claims at a discount and then take a position on those claims rising in value if related litigation ends in a settlement. The structure would let users trade the outcome of legal disputes and the likelihood of settlements in the form of financial products. Kalshi did not disclose a timeline for launching the products, their trading structure, or how regulations would apply.

[OlympusDAO completes OHM bridge migration to CCIP, adds Robinhood Chain]

OlympusDAO said it has completed the migration of the official OHM bridge to Chainlink’s CCIP, a move approved under on-chain proposal OIP-198.

The decentralized reserve asset protocol shifted OHM bridging on Arbitrum, Base, Berachain and Optimism from LayerZero to CCIP, while adding support for Robinhood Chain for the first time. Including Solana and Ethereum, which were already connected through CCIP, the migration now links all seven chains that support OHM.

Holders on those networks do not need to take any action, and token addresses will remain unchanged. OHM sent from Ethereum is locked in an Ethereum pool and released when it returns, so the total OHM supply does not change when tokens move across chains.
