- Stocks and crypto at the edge of ‘significant’ correction: 10x Research
Risk assets could be at a tipping point, warns Markus Thielen, who announced selling all the company’s tech stocks as his outlook turned bearish.
The stock and cryptocurrency markets could be “ahead of a crucial tipping point” heading for a significant price correction, according to Markus Thielen, the founder of 10x Research.
“We sold everything last night,” wrote Thielen, citing persistent inflation, decreasing rate cuts and a rising bond yield as the reasons behind his bearish outlook. In an April 16 research note, the founder wrote:
“The primary trigger is the unexpected and persistent inflation. With the bond market now projecting less than three cuts and 10-year Treasury Yields surpassing 4.50%, we may have arrived at a crucial tipping point for risk assets.”

- Solana's mainnet beta update v1.17.31 aims to resolve congestion issues
The Solana Foundation claimed ongoing network congestion could be attributed to the high demand for Solana block space and increased network activity.
Solana developers have released a mainnet beta update, v1.17.31, to deal with the ongoing network congestion on the Solana blockchain.
The update was released on April 12, and now, after three days of testing, it is being recommended for general use by mainnet beta validators.
This patch contains enhancements that will help with some of the ongoing network congestion and will be followed by further enhancements in v1.18.
The current version will help improve the network congestion and issues with the open interest jump. Some of the key upgrades include:
Show staked vs. non-staked packets sent down/throttled
Quic: use smallvec to aggregate chunks, save 1 alloc per packet
BankingStage Forwarding Filter
Tighten the minimal streams per 100ms for staked node
Treat super low staked as unstaked in streamer QOS
Default staked client in LocalCluster
Solana developer Anza asked validators to upgrade the latest patch only when there’s less than a 5% delinquent stake.

The funds were taken through a $ 6.2-billion investment scheme conducted by Tianjin Lantian Gerui Electronic Technology from 2014 to 2017.
The group, which also contacted China’s Ministry of Public Security, said it collected almost 2,500 signatures from victims and plans to submit them to both ministries.
The letter calls for the Chinese government to cooperate with the U.K. and provide evidence demonstrating their rightful ownership of the Bitcoin.
