Those strips were then covered in another layer of hard helmet shell. Et voila! The idea behind RLS technology is that when the helmet impacts a hard surface, the ball bearings roll off the strip, forcing the outer layer to shear away from the helmet. Those outer layers release, hence the company's name, RLS, or "Release Layer System." According to data gleaned from thousands upon thousands of internal tests, along with independent testing and verification from labs like Virginia Tech's, RLS is said to reduce the probability of brain injury by anywhere from 68 percent to 84 percent when compared to a non-RLS helmet. A few weeks ago, I visited RLS's headquarters in their East London warehouses. After they showed me…...

The ministry warned that these applications can gather sensitive personal information and potentially transmit it to outside parties without users" permission. A separate…...

58+ min ago (191+ words) XRP's doing something pretty interesting right now. It's the only cryptocurrency in the top 10 showing positive 24-hour volume change, up 6.79%. Everything else, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, BNB, Dogecoin, and Cardano, they're all deep in the red. Rising volume during a market decline usually signals either incoming volatility or accumulation happening under the surface. But here's the weird part. The price isn't reflecting that bullish volume yet. XRP is trading around $2.05, down about 2% on the day. It's stuck in a declining channel and can't seem to break above any major moving averages. The 50, 100, and 200-day trendlines are all sloping downward, and every time XRP tests the upper boundary of this channel, sellers push it right back down. Nothing on the charts screams reversal right now. RSI is still low, and those volume spikes are mostly tied to rejection candles instead of breakouts....

1+ hour, 2+ min ago (492+ words) Pi Network is preparing for a pivotal phase in its development, unveiling a fresh batch of system upgrades designed to push more users into its Mainnet and reduce the long-standing bottlenecks in identity verification. The timing is strategic, arriving just before a major token unlock expected in December, which has already sharpened community interest around migration status and eligibility. The most significant upgrade comes from the network's identity verification pipeline. Pi says it is now deploying AI automation across its standard KYC workflows " not just the Fast Track funnel introduced earlier this year " effectively halving the number of cases that need to wait for human review. The shift means newcomers and dormant users who struggled under the old rule requiring 30 mining-session completions before initiation should move through the system far faster than before. Fast Track itself remains unable to trigger…...
