▌Blum co-founder and former Binance Russia executive Vladimir Smerkis arrested in Moscow on fraud charges
Vladimir Smerkis, co-founder of Telegram mini-app Blum (formerly general manager of Binance Russia and CIS), was arrested in Moscow on fraud charges. The Zamoskvoretsky Court in Moscow found him suspected of "extraordinary fraud", and the specific amount involved has not yet been disclosed. The market speculates that it may involve The Token Fund and Tokenbox projects he operated in his early years, which once raised millions of dollars and then disappeared.
Blum's official X account has issued an emergency statement saying that Smerkis has resigned as CMO and is no longer involved in project development or co-founder affairs, and emphasized that the team's operations are not affected, and the airdrop plan will continue as planned in Q2 2025. Blum was supported by Binance Labs' "Most Valuable Builder" accelerator.

▌What is RISC-V?
RISC-V is a modern open source instruction set architecture (ISA) based on the principles of reduced instruction set computers (RISC). Simply put, it is like a blueprint that defines a set of instructions that a processor can execute. The design goals of RISC-V are highly modular, efficient, and flexible. Originally developed by the University of California in 2010, the open-source framework gives developers the flexibility to customize its functionality and use cases, and it also saves costs compared to proprietary ISAs such as ARM or x86. RISC-V has a wide range of uses, from supercomputers to smartphones, and now blockchains such as Ethereum. On April 20, 2025, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin announced a "radical" new expansion plan that will replace the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) with the RISC-V instruction set architecture, aiming to improve the speed and efficiency of the network's execution layer. The idea is that RISC-V is the best solution to the scalability limitations of blockchains.
