Jinse Finance reported that the international spot gold price set a new all-time high for the fourth consecutive trading day on Thursday, driven by escalating trade tensions and the looming U.S. government shutdown, prompting investors to flock to this safe-haven asset. At one point during trading, spot gold reached a record high of $4,256.21. OANDA analyst Zain Vawda stated: The trend of gold will depend on the outlook for interest rate cuts heading into 2026 and the development of trade conditions, with the latter potentially serving as a catalyst for gold prices to break through $5,000 per ounce. Vawda pointed out that any short-term pullback in gold may be temporary, as bullish investors often use such corrections as opportunities to re-enter the market. (Golden Ten Data)

ChainCatcher news, according to The Block, Chainlink has launched its first native real-time oracle on MegaETH, providing sub-millisecond market data to DeFi. This integration embeds Chainlink Data Streams into the core execution environment of MegaETH, allowing smart contracts to read prices "just in time," reducing redundant updates and oracle latency. MegaETH positions itself as a high-speed Ethereum L2, targeting throughput of 100,000 transactions per second, and is designed for low-latency scenarios such as perpetual contracts, prediction markets, and stablecoins. Previously, MegaETH and Ethena launched the stablecoin USDm to subsidize sequencer fees; its ecosystem derivatives platform Euphoria has completed a total of $7,500,000 in financing. Additionally, Chainlink disclosed that its oracle infrastructure currently secures approximately $90–100 billions in TVL and has transmitted about 18 billions messages.
