The decentralized trading platform edgeX is launching its native token, $EDGE, tonight at 8:30 PM Beijing time on March 31, 2026. The launch, known as a Token Generation Event (TGE), was delayed to ensure a stable start and avoid rescheduling. The TGE and initial listings on exchanges like Phemex will happen simultaneously, marking a key moment for the platform. However, the lead-up hasn’t been without issues. Some community members have expressed concerns about transparency after the edgeX team unexpectedly closed comments on a post about the TGE countdown without explanation, raising questions about the airdrop and initial token distribution.

At this point, these coins are the equivalent of a treasure chest, only instead of gold, it’s a mountain of Bitcoin – and the chest is sitting at the edge of a quantum cliff. It’s the most valuable target in the history of financial crime, just waiting for a brave quantum hacker to take a swing at it.

Charles Hoskinson had trouble verifying his identity. Specifically, a moderator in a Telegram group chat wouldn’t accept his proof of identity, even though he was trying to prove it was really him.

Google, ever the dramatist, neatly categorized the quantum risk profiles of popular blockchains into four distinct groups. One of those, predictably, is reserved for protocols that make long-term exposure to quantum-vulnerable public keys utterly inevitable. Included in this illustrious category are the likes of Ethereum, Solana, and-wait for it-XRP Ledger. Yes, XRP too! These blockchains, with their charmingly persistent accounts, love to parade around public keys like they’re the latest fashion trend. Either directly as account addresses or in their very first transaction. Oh, the humanity!
