The app is not the signer Ledger unveiled Atom, a connected Android device with a separate Ledger OS Secure Mode for transaction approval. Deliveries are expected in 2027, pending certification. Ledger says hardware disconnects Android from the screen and touch panel during signing. Everyday apps can request an action without controlling the approval display. Solana Mobile's Seeker wallet and dApp Store are planned for the device. App availability still depends on licences and certification. The boundary matters: a malicious app can propose a bad transaction even if it cannot alter the secure approval screen. Users still need to check what they sign; the design is not independent proof of safety. TON giveaway: $100 total, 10 winners. Follow @thesignal24 and like + comment on ever

The price before the payment A stablecoin transfer can be fast while buying the coins still means chasing dealers. Fireblocks has announced Liquidity Market, where payment firms can request prices from several OTC desks at once, compare quotes and trade under existing credit and settlement terms. Its launch release names B2C2 and Zodia Markets as the first providers. Access varies by provider and jurisdiction. Fireblocks says it takes no spread and does not hold assets during conversion. The customer settles directly with the chosen desk. That does not mean the dealer's quote is cost-free or that settlement risk disappears. For payment firms, fewer screens could make comparison easier. The important check is still what each quote buys: the rate, available credit and when the other side

The world in 24 hours A chain's future, rising costs and election promises. Starknet's fork in the road STRK stakers and delegators can vote on researching an independent post-quantum Layer 1. A 'Yes' starts research, not a migration. The non-binding poll sets no switch date; Ethereum bridges would stay open. Prices before the checkout US producer prices rose 1.3% in September and 6.3% over a year, the BLS reports. Energy drove most of the goods increase. These are prices received by producers, not household inflation or a new Fed decision. Will candidates accept defeat? Fourteen of 26 Senate campaigns surveyed by Reuters said they would accept results without conditions. Others qualified their answers, avoided the question or did not respond. This measures campaign statements, not vot

One name off the list US sanctions relief has reached a key Venezuelan negotiator. OFAC has removed Jorge Rodriguez, the National Assembly's president, from its SDN list. The notice deletes his name and aliases. It gives no reason for the decision. This ends his individual listing, while the wider Venezuela sanctions framework remains. It is not blanket permission for every deal involving the state. Reuters says Rodriguez is involved in US-backed talks on changes to the top court and electoral authority ahead of elections. No firm election date has been set. A completed delisting can ease one financial obstacle. It does not establish an election timetable or prove that political reforms have been delivered.

Bitcoin stays, risk remains Keeping BTC on Bitcoin would not spare a borrower from liquidation. Babylon Labs has proposed native BTC collateral for Aave V4. Coins would stay locked on Bitcoin, with an internal record on Ethereum. The first use case is borrowing stablecoins. Redeeming a vault can take days. The proposed system lets outside liquidators exchange seized vaults for WBTC while authorized actors handle Bitcoin redemption. Liquidation takes whole vaults. If a vault exceeds the debt repaid, the borrower receives the remainder in discounted WBTC, not native BTC. This is a proposal, not a live lending market. Risk settings and governance votes are still ahead. Keeping coins on Bitcoin does not remove liquidation or protocol risk. TON giveaway: $100 total, 10 winners. Follo

The fee has two sides Buying and selling ETH in the same pool can now carry different fees. Uniswap says its VolatilePair Hook is live on Ethereum, starting with ETH/USDC. The new v4 hook recalculates fees on every swap. One component tilts with the price: after a rise, buyers pay more and sellers less. Extra fees can still apply to trades reversing a move, so that tilt is not the final bill. The aim is to keep more arbitrage value with liquidity providers. It does not guarantee profit or remove price risk. For traders, a quote can become stale within a block as other swaps move the price. Uniswap's docs call for a slippage limit; the quoted fee also excludes price impact. This is one new pool, not a fee change across all Uniswap trades. TON giveaway: $100 total, 10 winners. Foll

The world in 24 hours Banking ambitions, stablecoin oversight and a peacekeeping gap. Kraken's bank deal Payward, Kraken's parent, agreed to buy Saldo Bank and its Finnish parent. It plans EU deposits and lending after closing, expected in 2027. Regulatory approvals are still needed. USDC's new supervisor The EBA classified Circle's EU-issued USDC as the EU's first significant e-money token. From November 12, it takes over oversight of reserves, liquidity, own funds and redemption plans. France's ACPR keeps governance and other duties. Lebanon's unanswered handover U.N. peacekeeping chief Lacroix told AP no replacement for UNIFIL has been agreed. Its mandate ends December 31, with withdrawal over the following year.

Signal lost in motion Ukrainian units say Starlink interruptions have forced them to cancel drone missions. Presidential adviser Serhii Beskrestnov says SpaceX imposed a 100 mph limit on military StarShield terminals overnight, without advance warning. The 7th Air Assault Corps told Reuters some links dropped for 10–20 seconds at 110–120 km/h, complicating control. These observations do not establish one cutoff for every terminal. The corps warns that slowing drones makes them easier targets. A communications limit can become a constraint on what crews can launch. SpaceX did not immediately respond to Reuters. Ukraine's defence ministry is investigating the cause; a political motive remains unproven. TON giveaway: $100 total, 10 winners. Follow @thesignal24 and like + comment on
