Perplexity uses SFT followed by RL with Qwen3.5 models, leveraging a multi-hop QA dataset and rubric checks to boost search accuracy and efficiency, achieving best-in-class FRAMES performance. Abstract: Perplexity's post-training workflow for web-search agents combines supervised fine-tuning (SFT) to enforce instruction-following and language consistency with online reinforcement learning (RL) via the GRPO algorithm. The RL stage uses a proprietary multi-hop verifiable QA dataset and rubric-based conversational data to prevent SFT drift, with reward gating and within-group efficiency penalties. Evaluation shows Qwen3.5-397B-SFT-RL achieving top FRAMES performance, 57.3% accuracy with a single tool call and 73.9% with four calls at $0.02 per query, outperforming GPT-5.4 and Claude Sonnet 4.6 on these metrics. Pricing is API-based and excludes caching.

F2Pool co-founder Wang Chun revealed on X that he earned 83.7M SPK as Spark rewards, sold on CoWSwap for 663 ETH (~$1.4M), and now regrets it. The post underscores crypto volatility and exit-timing risks. Abstract: Wang Chun states he received SPK rewards, sold them for 663 ETH ($1.4M) on CoWSwap, and now expresses regret, illustrating the volatility of crypto holdings and the challenge of timing exits.

OpenClaw switches from Pi to Codex harness to fix a silent authentication fallback, with two PRs addressing the bridge and fallback; post-fix, the agent shifts from shallow heartbeat polling to a full work loop, enabling progress. Abstract: OpenClaw’s Codex harness optimization addressed a critical authentication flaw that caused silent fallback to the Pi harness when using Codex with OpenAI models. Two pull requests fix the authentication bridge and prevent silent fallback, changing the runtime adapter. As a result, agent behavior evolves from shallow heartbeat polling to a full work loop that reads context, analyzes tasks, edits repositories, and verifies progress, improving continuity and visibility across heartbeats.

Abstract: Ethereum spot ETFs posted $96.43 million in net inflows on April 22.

XRPL tokenizes U.S. Treasuries, reaching about $333M in four institutional products led by Ondo Finance, with BlackRock support; overall tokenization remains under 0.01% of a $31T Treasury market. Abstract: The XRPL is expanding institutional tokenization of U.S. Treasuries, totaling about $333 million across four products, led by Ondo Finance and backed by BlackRock. Despite rapid settlement and built-in compliance tools, tokenized Treasuries still represent a tiny slice of the roughly $31 trillion market, while the ecosystem advances into post-quantum security and broader real-world asset deployment.
