Key Facts

In a statement issued on social media, the Israel Defense Forces said: “According to information provided by the Red Cross, 13 hostages have been transferred into their custody and are on their way to IDF and ISA forces in Gaza.”

The release of the 13 remaining hostages comes just hours after Hamas freed seven other hostages who have already crossed the border into Israel accompanied by the IDF and were taken to an “initial reception point” in southern Israel to “reunite with their families.”

The condition of the hostages is unknown but the IDF said in an earlier statement they will “undergo an initial medical assessment,” after re-entering the country.

The seven released hostages have been identified as by the Israeli government as “Alon Ohel, Matan Angrest, Gali Berman, Ziv Berman, Guy Gilboa Dalal, Eitan Mor and Omri Miran,” but no details have been shared about their condition.

Israeli officials also released photos of the first group of freed hostages arriving in Israel and reuniting with their families.

What Has The Red Cross Said?

In an earlier statement, the International Committee of the Red Cross said it was engaged in a “multi-phase operation to facilitate the release and transfer of hostages and detainees as part of a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas.” The ICRC’s teams will take the hostages from Hamas’ custody and hand them over to the Israeli authorities. The humanitarian group will carry out a separate operation, taking custody of Palestinian detainees held Israel and transfer them to Gaza and the West Bank.

What Do We Know About Trump’s Visit To Israel?

President Trump arrived in Tel Aviv on Monday just shortly after the Israeli military announced that the hostages had crossed the Israeli border. Just before landing, Air Force One flew over Hostages Square in Tel Aviv, which has been the site of protests and demonstrations by members of the hostages’ families. After his arrival, Trump was greeted by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and President Isaac Herzog at the tarmac. Herzog’s office has announced Trump will be given Israel’s highest civilian award, the Israeli Presidential Medal of Honor, for his efforts to bring the hostages home. The president is set to meet with the family of the hostages and then deliver an address to the Knesset, Israel’s parliament. Before departing for his Middle East trip, Trump declared that “the war is over,” although Israeli officials, including Netanyahu have insisted that this is only the first phase of a ceasefire. Several people seated in the Knesset were seen wearing MAGA-style red hats adorned with the text “Trump The Peace President.”

Fetch has sued Ocean and its founders, accusing them of undermining DAO governance by selling 263 million FET tokens without authorization.

PANews reported on November 8th that, according to CryptoSlate, Fetch and three token holders have filed a class-action lawsuit in the Southern District of New York, accusing Ocean Protocol and its founders of misleading the community and causing misunderstandings about the autonomy of OceanDAO. The lawsuit, case number 1:25-cv-9210, was filed on November 4, 2025. The defendants include Ocean Protocol Foundation Ltd., Ocean Expeditions Ltd., OceanDAO, and Ocean's co-founders Bruce Pon, Trent McConaghy, and Christina Pon. The plaintiff alleges that Ocean falsely stated that hundreds of millions of OCEAN "community" tokens would be reserved for DAO rewards, but in reality, after joining the ASI consortium, it converted and sold these tokens, thereby depressing the value of FET and undermining the governance model claimed by the DAO. The lawsuit claims that over 661 million OCEAN were converted into approximately 286.46 million FET, and subsequently approximately 263 million FET were released into the market, equivalent to more than 10% of the then-circulating supply, causing downward pressure on the price of FET during and after Ocean's withdrawal from the market. The document states that Ocean transferred OceanDAO assets to the Cayman Islands entity Ocean Expeditions in late June, began converting OCEAN to FET in early July, liquidated most of the resulting FET on a centralized trading venue, and withdrew from the ASI consortium in October.

The Elite Advisory Board Raising the Bar for Crypto Credibility!

The Elite Advisory Board Raising the Bar for Crypto Credibility!

The post The Elite Advisory Board Raising the Bar for Crypto Credibility! appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto Presales Explore how BlockDAG’s world-class advisory board, led by Dr. Maurice Herlihy, turned academic excellence into real blockchain innovation! When most crypto projects struggle to prove their credibility, BlockDAG went a different route; it built one. Instead of relying on hype or flashy marketing, it assembled a board of advisors whose resumes could power an entire university department. This group doesn’t just lend prestige; it validates the technology behind BlockDAG’s hybrid Proof-of-Work and Directed Acyclic Graph system. Among them is Dr. Maurice Herlihy, one of computer science’s most decorated minds and a true authority in distributed computing. The strategy here is simple yet brilliant: combine practical blockchain expertise with academic strength to create a foundation built on real innovation and proven knowledge, not speculation. The Vision: Build More Than a Team BlockDAG understood early that innovation needs more than developers; it needs thinkers who have shaped the field itself. The leadership, headed by CEO Antony Turner, chose to build what they call a “Genius Bar” of blockchain intellect. This idea came from the realization that credibility in crypto doesn’t come from influencers or endorsements; it comes from having the right people asking the right questions. Turner’s background in fintech and Swiss regulation gave him the insight to merge institutional discipline with crypto creativity. This approach reshaped how investors perceive early-stage blockchain ventures. Instead of anonymous teams, BlockDAG offered transparency, leadership, and a network of experts who have not only theorized innovation but also implemented it at scale. That’s why it has become the best-performing crypto today, combining logic, structure, and execution. Dr. Maurice Herlihy: The Academic Powerhouse Every innovation needs an anchor, someone who ensures the foundation is scientifically sound. For BlockDAG, that anchor is Dr. Maurice Herlihy. As a professor at Brown University and winner of the Gödel…
