You're listening to Tech Beat, and here's what's moving in tech today.
A California jury has handed Elon Musk a decisive defeat in his lawsuit against Sam Altman and OpenAI. Nine jurors deliberated for roughly two hours before unanimously finding that Musk's claims were filed too late, barring them under the statute of limitations. The verdict is advisory, meaning the judge has final say, but the signal is clear.

A new report from Messari suggests the memecoin stigma that once defined Solana may be giving way to something more institutional.
And Ethereum is navigating its own turbulence. The Ethereum Foundation is seeing a wave of high-profile departures as an internal restructuring reshapes the organization's mandate and its role within the broader ecosystem. Meanwhile, Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin is looking outward, suggesting that AI-assisted mathematical verification could become a key tool for securing crypto networks as artificial intelligence gets better at both writing and breaking code.
