An address that has accumulated 2.83 million ENS since May last year from ENS: Token Timelock and ENS: Cold Wallet wallet unlock, transferred 200,000 ENS to Binance an hour ago, worth $1.79 million. The address still holds over 1.73 million ENS, worth $15.4 million.

Nick Johnson, founder and lead developer of Ethereum Name Service (ENS), has written an open letter on X (formerly Twitter) urging Unstoppable Domains to drop a patent or face a lawsuit. Unstoppable Domains was granted a patent in January that claims to use blockchain technology to determine domains. Johnson claims that the patent is based on innovations developed by ENS and contains no novel innovations of its own. Johnson has requested that Unstoppable Domains put legal weight behind its PR commitment to pledge its patent to the Web3 Domain Alliance.

Nick Johnson, the founder of Ethereum Name Service (ENS), criticized Unstoppable Domains on social media. Johnson not only criticized Unstoppable Domains for lacking legal support or the binding force behind its Web3 Domain Alliance organization, but also accused Unstoppable of applying for a patent for an innovation of ENS.

Web3 domain service ENS has announced the launch of the EVM gateway. The EVM gateway is an open-source repository that includes a general CCIP-Read gateway framework and Solidity library, allowing L1 smart contracts to efficiently and securely retrieve and verify states from other EVM chains (L2). Developers can operate their own gateway or use existing gateways. Additionally, changing the target (the L2 to be read) is as simple as exchanging the validator contract address. Currently, the gateway is available on OP Goerli and will soon be launched on the OP mainnet.
