The ETHGlobal Buenos Aires hackathon event concluded on November 23. This hackathon brought together top talents and experts from the Ethereum ecosystem, attracting many developer teams to explore new blockchain technology applications. The event had a prize pool of $500,000.
After the judging process, ten projects stood out among the 475 projects submitted, covering areas such as NFTs, DeFi, and prediction markets. PANews takes you through a quick look at these 10 projects.
Paybot
Paybot showcased the X402 Payment Required protocol based on blockchain micro-payments, used to control access to physical devices. The system was specifically developed for the Coinbase Developer Platform hackathon, demonstrating fee-less transactions where users can pay the robot rental fee using the QUSD stablecoin without holding ETH to pay gas fees.
The system implemented a complete payment service architecture: users sign a QUSD payment authorization in their wallets, and the service provider submits the transaction to the chain and pays the gas fee. This project enables IoT and robot applications to truly achieve micro-payments, which would otherwise be unaffordable due to high gas fees.
The project was built by @sprpstsn.
JetLagged
JetLagged is a decentralized prediction market platform built on Celo and Oasis, where users can predict flight delays and cancellations. This platform is built using Next.js, Bun.js, and Solidity, and is deployed on the Celo blockchain.
• Real-time Flight Market: Predict real flights with real-time odds.
• Real-time Pricing: Based on an AMM pricing mechanism that automatically updates based on market demand.
• Decentralized Resolution: Automatically validate flight status through the Oasis backend oracle.
• Farcaster Integration: Support for the Farcaster Frame widget.
• Celo Blockchain: Conduct fast, low-cost transactions on the Celo network.

Hubble Trading Arena
The Hubble Trading Arena is a fully open-source autonomous trading environment, where on-chain agents engage in hiring, payment, and coordination using the x402 and ERC-8004 protocols, and run real-time reasoning and actual transactions. It demonstrates the complete on-chain collaborative loop required for thousands of professional financial agents to work together without human intervention.
This project is built by Amy@MeetHubble.
-- Price
Payload Exchange
The Payload Exchange allows merchants to accept any form of payment through x402 agents, where senders can choose tokens, and receivers seamlessly receive stable assets.
The Payload Exchange operates as an intermediary layer intercepting x402 payment requests and introducing a third party - the Sponsor. This enhances the end-user payment experience, allowing users to choose payment methods beyond stablecoins or other currencies. Sponsors pay part or all of the amount in exchange for user actions or data.
The tripartite collaboration model benefits all participants:
• Sponsor: Acquire users, gather data, or drive specific behaviors by paying for content access fees.
• Content Provider: Lower the access barrier. Monetize content without setting up paywalls.
• User: Obtain premium content/tools for free or at a discounted price through transactional actions/data instead of money.

Yoga
The Yoga project has implemented a Non-Fungible (NF) Position Manager that allows LPs to manage complex multi-range positions within a single NFT. Unlike traditional position managers where each NFT represents only one price range, Yoga can manage multiple sub-positions (different price ranges) under a single ERC721 token, enabling sophisticated liquidity allocation strategies across price ranges.
The contract provides a simple Application Binary Interface (ABI) that allows LPs to easily specify the changes they want to apply (liquidity increments), and the contract automatically calculates how to adjust the underlying UniV4 position.
The project is built by Charlie Mack, Duncan Townsend, Luigi, Michael Fautch.
LensMint Web3 Camera
The LensMint Web3 Camera is a hardware-based system that signs photos upon capture, generating on-chain NFTs with zero-knowledge proofs to achieve tamper-proof, authenticated memories.
LensMint is a complete hardware-to-blockchain camera system designed to ensure the authenticity and ownership of real-world photos. The system is based on a Raspberry Pi camera, utilizing hardware-level encryption identity. Each photo is signed, hashed upon capture, validated for authenticity through a zero-knowledge proof generated by vlayer, and verified on-chain through RISC Zero. All media is uploaded to Filecoin for permanent decentralized storage and mints an ERC-1155 NFT representing the authenticated memory. A built-in QR code system allows individuals in the photos to immediately claim their NFT, enabling proof of attendance, authenticated memories, and automatic revenue sharing.
LensMint offers a trustless way to prove the device origin, timestamp, and integrity of the photos, addressing authenticity, sourcing, and monetization concerns for creators, journalists, event organizers, and scientific literature.
The project is built by Mohit Bhat.
Halo
Halo is a mini-app based on World Chain that converts real-world shopping receipts into on-chain rewards distributed to verified users. Users scan any store's receipt, Halo evaluates it through a lightweight process, and then rewards it to users verified through World ID. Throughout the entire process, the user's personal identity remains private.
A shopping receipt contains important information about real-world economic transactions, but this information is often lost or locked in closed systems. Halo captures this information, processing each receipt to extract details such as the merchant, timestamp, total amount, currency, and category. Rewards can only be claimed by specific users, creating a witch attack-resistant, privacy-preserving way to link offline behavior to on-chain rewards.
This project is built by hellocrypto, @DNC_Labs.
zkx402 (ProofofLeak)
zkx402 is an extension of the x402 protocol that integrates zero-knowledge proofs to verify mutable payments and verifiable content.
Consumers (human or AI agents) have different pricing tiers, with users able to use zero-knowledge credentials to verify identity receiving discounts. Producers can prove the source of their content by attaching zero-knowledge proofs. For example, identity confirmation by a specific journalist, human-authored proof, or IoT data with GPS/sensor details.
Whistleblowers can receive rewards without revealing their identity. Journalists can lower access costs by proving their human status or affiliation with reputable media outlets. AI agents controlled by journalists access private sensitive data through x402 autonomous payments on Base.

Aqua0
Aqua0 is a cross-chain shared liquidity DApp that enables seamless asset transfers using Aqua AMM and LayerZero messaging.
Aqua is a shared liquidity layer developed by 1inch to address the inefficiencies present in current AMMs. These issues include: 1) 90% of AMM liquidity is never used, leading to liquidity stagnation. 2) This results in liquidity fragmentation as AMMs end up with idle and unused liquidity across LPs in different protocols and chains.
Aqua0 enhances Aqua in a cross-chain manner. The current issue with Aqua is that it acts as a settlement layer, usable on only one chain at a time. Aqua0 will establish a cross-chain AMM market, leveraging Layer Zero's cross-chain components and Aqua's shared liquidity contracts to enable LPs to unlock new yield opportunities, thus improving capital efficiency.
This project is built by Yudhishthra Sugumaran, Andrei De Stefani, and @tomasmazzi.
BMCP
BMCP (Bitcoin Multi-Chain Protocol) enables true cross-chain programmability connecting Bitcoin and EVM chains. Users can use native Schnorr signatures (Taproot/BIP340) to sign Bitcoin transactions to trigger EVM transactions (DeFi swaps, token transfers, contract calls).
The Cross-Chain Relay Engine (CRE) scans Bitcoin blocks and upon detecting a valid Schnorr-authenticated BMCP message embedded in OP_RETURN, executes off-chain (risk management, validation) and on-chain (contract invocation) secure calls on chains like Polygon, Ethereum, seamlessly leveraging Chainlink's CCIP. BMCP ensures all processes remain trust-minimized, anchored to Bitcoin's finality through cryptographic techniques, and are composable across different ecosystems.
This project is built by Vibhav Sharma, Vollantre, James Scaur, and Manuel.

Broadcom (AVGO) : AI Growth, Fund Positioning, and Guarantee Risk
Broadcom (AVGO) recently fell with the semiconductor sector, closing down 10.43% at $291.53 on November 5. The shares rebounded more than 4% in premarket trading on November 6. Concerns that election results could lead to tighter AI rules and slower data center approvals contributed to a broad sell-off, with a semiconductor index falling about 12%. The move appears tied mainly to sector sentiment and policy concerns, with no clear company-specific negative catalyst identified.
Institutional trading and AI growth expectations are also in focus. ARK funds sold about $134 million of Broadcom shares over two sessions while adding to SpaceX. Citi maintained its Buy rating and projected that Broadcom’s AI semiconductor revenue could reach $115 billion in fiscal 2027, roughly doubling year over year. Broadcom had approximately $179.2 billion in signed contracts as of the prior quarter, while analysts estimated fourth-quarter AI chip revenue at about $21.7 billion. These forecasts will need to be tested against future results.
Contingent guarantees are another point for investors to monitor. Broadcom is providing guarantees tied to Anthropic’s AI rack-leasing arrangement, involving about $29 billion in the first phase and a second-phase plan of up to $43 billion. Banks plan to issue $21 billion in bonds to support related chip financing. The guarantee amounts are not the same as debt already incurred, but they add a potential risk to assess. Broadcom is scheduled to report its next quarterly results on December 9, when management’s outlook for fiscal 2027 AI demand will be closely watched.

Netflix (NFLX) Stock Rebounds: Insider Sales, Advertising, and Growth Plans
Several Netflix executives sold company shares in early November 2026. Co-CEO Theodore Sarandos sold 27,312 shares from November 3 to 4, valued at about $1.81 million. CFO Spencer Neumann sold shares worth approximately $612,000. Co-CEO Gregory Peters realized about $1.69 million, including transactions related to tax withholding. Chief Legal Officer David Hyman and director Bradford Smith also reduced their holdings. Executive sales can have different reasons and should not be viewed on their own as a measure of the company’s outlook.
After recent pressure, Netflix shares rebounded more than 4% around November 4. Bill Ackman’s Pershing Square Capital Management allocated about 5% of its portfolio to Netflix, while new AI features and positive views on the company’s technology prospects helped sentiment. Netflix reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $13.44 billion and earnings per share of $0.87, both above expectations, though its forward outlook remains a key focus.
Advertising is one of Netflix’s main challenges. Delays to key ad product features led the company to reduce its annual advertising revenue outlook from $3 billion to $2.7 billion. Viewer engagement has also faced pressure from changes in content appeal and competition from platforms such as YouTube. Netflix is pursuing growth through live events, gaming, and advertising, with plans to expand its ad-supported offering to 15 markets while adjusting its workforce by about 6% to improve margins. Investors may want to monitor advertising growth, engagement, and profitability. This article is for informational purposes only and is not investment advice.
Carvana Earnings: Record Sales, Strong Profit, and Insider Share Sales
Carvana reported third-quarter net revenue of $8.04 billion, up 42.4% year over year and above the $7.7 billion market estimate. Retail units sold reached a record 217,385, an increase of 39.4%. Net income rose to $483 million, while adjusted EBITDA reached a record $800 million, reflecting gains in both revenue and profitability.
Management expects full-year 2026 adjusted EBITDA to reach the upper end of its $2.7 billion to $3.0 billion range. Needham maintained its Buy rating, named Carvana a top pick in transportation technology, and set a $100 price target. Strong results and guidance have drawn investor attention, though continued performance will depend on sales, margins, and operating costs.
Insider transactions are also on investors’ radar. A regulatory filing indicates that CFO Mark Jenkins planned to sell 63,800 shares on November 2, 2026, valued at approximately $4.35 million. Since August, he has planned sales totaling 191,300 shares. An executive share sale alone does not determine a company’s outlook; investors may also consider earnings, cash flow, and future guidance.

FCEL Stock: Data Center Opportunity, Manufacturing Costs, and Lawsuit Risk
FuelCell Energy (ticker: FCEL) provides fuel-cell power solutions. Growing electricity demand from AI data centers could create new business opportunities, while proposed pauses on new data center approvals in some areas have raised concerns about project timelines. A 75-megawatt power project may be affected, and FCEL shares recently fell as much as about 17% in a single session amid policy concerns.
FCEL signed an agreement with Fit Energy to provide up to 380 megawatts of fuel-cell power solutions. Its backlog is approximately $3.6 billion, with about 97% of its sales pipeline related to data centers. The company also drew the second installment under a $49 million financing arrangement backed by an export credit agency, supporting a green energy project and clean-energy exports. Recent leadership changes include Matthew Latino becoming CFO, digital infrastructure executive Peter Hopper joining the board, and John Dansby leading manufacturing scale-up. Converting orders into revenue will depend on production capacity, costs, and project execution.
FCEL reported third-quarter revenue of about $33 million, down approximately 29% year over year, and a net loss of roughly $45.3 million. Product costs and manufacturing overhead for the Fit Energy agreement exceeded the contract pricing, resulting in an approximately $17 million contract impairment charge. Securities class-action allegations concern disclosures about manufacturing capacity and costs; the case remains in the legal process. The deadline to seek appointment as lead plaintiff is November 10, 2026. FCEL’s growth opportunities come with execution, financing, and litigation risks.

PFE Stock: Pfizer’s Q3 2026 Earnings, Business Strategy, and Dividend Outlook
PFE is the New York Stock Exchange ticker for Pfizer Inc. In the third quarter of 2026, Pfizer reported revenue of $16.58 billion and adjusted earnings per share of $0.87, both above market expectations. The company raised its full-year revenue outlook to $62 billion–$64 billion and its adjusted EPS guidance to $2.95–$3.05, pointing to stronger performance than previously expected.
Although demand for COVID-related products continues to decline, Pfizer’s non-COVID business is growing. Third-quarter sales reached $720 million for the cancer drug Padcev and $2.52 billion for Eliquis, up 25% year over year. Revenue from newer and acquired products rose 32%. Pfizer is expanding its oncology pipeline, entering the weight-loss treatment market through its acquisition of Metsera, and targeting approximately $9.7 billion in net cost savings by 2029. Cecile Guegan has also taken over as chief financial officer.
Investors are also watching Pfizer’s dividend and legal developments. The company declared a cash dividend of $0.43 per share, with an ex-dividend date of November 6, 2026. Analysts raised some earnings estimates and price targets following the quarterly results. Pfizer also faces ongoing legal scrutiny related to statements about COVID vaccine safety, while its subsidiary Mylan has sued Novo Nordisk over generic-drug patent issues involving Wegovy. Pfizer’s outlook depends on new-product growth, cost savings, patent matters, and litigation developments. This article is for informational purposes only and is not investment advice.
