THE House of Representatives leadership is committed to passing priority legislation despite impeachment duties that may divert attention from policymaking, a lawmaker said on Thursday.

In a statement, Deputy Speaker Francisco Paolo P. Ortega V said Majority Leader Ferdinand Alexander “Sandro” A. Marcos III is focused on steering the approval of the administration’s key measures, even as the House faces the prospect of evaluating the impeachment complaints against Vice-President Sara Duterte-Carpio.

“The impeachment process is a constitutional duty that we take seriously, but it is only one of many responsibilities of the House,” he said. “Amid a packed legislative agenda, House Majority Leader Marcos took the lead in securing the approval of vital measures.”

Ms. Duterte faces three impeachment complaints alleging the misuse of P612.5 million in confidential and intelligence funds allocated to her office and to the Education department when she was secretary.

The House earlier this week dismissed two impeachment complaints against President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr., ending a short-lived bid to remove him from office over corruption allegations tied to a multibillion-peso flood control scandal. — Kenneth Christiane L. Basilio

Perpetual DEX in testing with cross‑chain liquidity and ADL

The post Perpetual DEX in testing with cross‑chain liquidity and ADL appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Sunperp, a new perpetual DEX being tested on the Tron blockchain, promises millisecond executions, cross-chain liquidity aggregation, and an integrated auto-deleveraging (ADL) system. Justin Sun reshared the announcement on X, inviting users to try it and highlighting dedicated incentives, while numerous economic details and operational metrics remain to be confirmed. According to the data collected by on-chain analysts and industry reports, in May 2025 TRON hosted over 75 billion USDT, with the network recording over 8.3 million daily transactions and approximately 306 million active accounts, a context that justifies the interest in USDT-collateralized derivatives. Market analysts following perpetual DEX also note that the massive availability of USDT on TRON facilitates cross-chain arbitrage operations and reduces costs for market makers. What is Sunperp and what it brings differently to Tron Sunperp is a platform perp DEX that uses USDT as collateral, with profits and losses calculated in USDT. The architecture separates matching, executed off-chain to maximize speed, from settlement, recorded on-chain to ensure transparency of trading results. In this context, the debut announcement was originally reported by Jamie Redman; the team also states that, while in the testing phase, the core contracts are non-upgradable. Main Technical Features Order types: market, limit (with FOK – Fill-or-Kill, GTC – Good-Till-Cancelled, and IOC – Immediate-or-Cancel modes), post-only orders, plan orders, trailing, and TWAP (Time-Weighted Average Price). Use of multi-source oracles to determine the mark price employed in the calculation of profits and liquidations. Primary collateral: USDT, with P&L calculated in the same currency. Core contracts declared non-upgradable in an environment still in testing. Cross-chain liquidity: less slippage and tighter spreads The protocol claims to aggregate liquidity flows from various networks in order to increase market depth and improve order execution, thereby reducing slippage and spreads in large-size trades. However, the actual effect will depend…
