Let today be the day the whole world finally gets why open source matters
The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees. The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance. Access to all other Claude models is not affected. We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible. Read our full statement: anthropic.com/news/fable-myt…

DAOs solved token liquidity on @Balancer twice. First with 80/20 pools: one fungible position, treasury keeps majority exposure, zero management. Still the right call for many. Now with AutoRange Pools: the same fungible simplicity, but with concentrated depth that follows price on its own. No NFT positions, no incentive wrappers, no JIT wars, no range babysitting. @Neverland_Money's community picked the second path with an 84.79% vote.
Set it once, then walk away. That's the promise behind AutoRange Pools. $DUST / $USDC swung around 35% in nearly three weeks and never left its band. The range follows price on its own before it reaches the edge, with no extra transaction or gas for the LP. 🧵

Token standards define integration depth. If your protocol plugs into LP positions, NFT-based CL needs custom wrappers for lending, yield aggregators, and portfolio tooling. Fungible positions plug straight in. Why that matters for AutoRange Pools 🧵

Mermaid High Tide is back! DUST liquidity providers are currently earning 165% on our new @Balancer AutoRange pool. Where does that yield come from? Revenue. Neverland is a lending protocol. We generate revenue from borrowing activity, and we’re consistently the highest revenue-generating app on Monad. 100% of protocol revenue flows back to DUST holders as locking rewards, LP rewards, and our buybacks vault. The USDC LPs earn is their share of last epoch’s protocol revenue. Real yield from real usage, which is what keeps this campaign sustainable.

Post-mortem: On May 27, an attacker forged an unbacked vsdCRV mint on Arbitrum. No Stake DAO core contracts were ever at risk. ~43.8 ETH were drained from the vasdCRV Curve pool, a SDGP to fully compensate affected users has been published. Full post-mortem 👇

Having this framework public is great for the ecosystem. Teams can now know what they should be aiming for. Now you know, use it! Make your token better!
LlamaRisk has published an ARFC proposing a new standardized Risk Framework that governs all assets on @Aave V3, V4, and Aave Horizon. The framework establishes standards for evaluating asset, bridge, and chain-level risk criteria, and for monitoring and automated risk management systems.

AutoRange from @Balancer might be the cleanest fix for a problem every DAO has: hosting liquidity for your token without burning your incentive budget. Full range pools are simple, but most of your TVL sits at prices the token never trades at. You pay for headline depth, traders get thin depth at spot. Plain NFT concentrated liquidity fixes the efficiency and breaks something else. LPs chase narrow ranges and rebalance constantly, so your incentives feed a few active managers while passive LPs get pushed out of range. AutoRange keeps CL’s capital efficiency and drops the range game. The pool recenters its own range over time. One fungible BPT, no manual ranges, no rebalancing, no external operator. Durable depth that actually sits at spot. @Neverland_Money community made it official for their USDC/DUST liquidity, after living through the first two. If you incentivize your own token, it’s worth understanding why.
Voting has now closed for [NGV-01]. “[NGV-01] Adopt a Balancer AutoRange Pool as Neverland's Core USDC/DUST Liquidity Venue” has passed with 84.79% of votes in favor. ✦ 80% of the upcoming epoch’s LP rewards will be distributed to liquidity providers in the new @Balancer AutoRange pool ✦ 20% of the weekly rewards will remain on the Uniswap V2 pool while users migrate their positions

Protect your LP, protect your token from manipulation! AutoRange is fungible, so no JIT 😉
Concentrated liquidity promised passive yield. For most LPs, it turned into a maintenance problem. Ranges expire, fees stop, and the position sits idle until someone rebalances it. AutoRange Pools handle that automatically. 🧵

Dont forget dealing with market makers. Most DAOs can't even afford it at an early stage.
DAOs struggle with token liquidity. Running concentrated liquidity on the treasury side means picking ranges, monitoring drift, and executing rebalances through governance. Most treasuries aren't built for that. AutoRange Pools are. 🧵

Can confirm it is a great service! We used it to distribute white hat funds to affected users from the November 2025 @Balancer exploit. Merkl bros were even so kind to waive the fee. Neat solution is their token wrappers where users can claim their airdrop from e.g. a multisig safe directly: docs.merkl.xyz/merkl-mechani…
With @merkl_xyz, we offer our airdrop technology for free to any team hit by a hack that needs to redistribute funds as part of a remediation
