Index rules around seasoning, profitability, and public float remain in place, delaying any potential inclusion. That creates a practical challenge: positioning for a dominant company that already trades like a top-tier constituent—without the benchmark doing the mechanical buying just yet.This piece breaks down what changed, what hasn’t, the…

Your AI agent asks to rebalance across Uniswap and supply collateral on Morpho. You grant access, it executes flawlessly, and APY ticks up. Weeks later, the agent drains more than you expected—not via a bug, but because you’d authorized a broad scope and forgot to revoke it.That’s the new reality. Wallets and L2s are racing to let agents propose and execute on-chain actions. MetaMask’s new Agent Wallet adds default simulation, threat-scanning and MEV protections—with a “Transaction Protection” backstop up to $10,000/month in Early Access MetaMask (Consensys) blog.

Two dates, one bet. On June 9, Starknet flips the switch on testnet. On June 22, the v0.14.3 mainnet release is slated to go live with a new way to price gas.
