GameStop just made a significant move with its Bitcoin holdings, Ethereum hones in on post-quantum security: Hodler’s Digest

Ethereum developers to launch biweekly sessions on quantum-resistant transactions as Foundation commits $2 million in new funding to harden core cryptography. The Ethereum Foundation has made post-quantum security a central focus of the network’s long-term roadmap, announcing the formation of a dedicated Post Quantum (PQ) team. The new team will be led by Thomas Coratger, a cryptographic engineer at the Ethereum Foundation, with support from Emile, a cryptographer closely associated with leanVM, according to crypto researcher Justin Drake. “After years of quiet R&D, EF management has officially declared PQ security a top strategic priority,” Drake said in a Saturday post on X. “It's now 2026, timelines are accelerating. Time to go full PQ.” Read more

Crypto price prediction today: CZ has said a 2026 Bitcoin supercycle is possible as BTC compresses below $98K after trading ~$88K. ETH has held rising support near $2,700 while ETF outflows have totaled $42M. XRP has defended $1.80, eyeing $2.50. Bitcoin Hyper has raised $30.9M with 39% APY staking.

Ethereum forms a diamond pattern near $2.9K, with whales accumulating and long-term setups hinting at a possible move toward $3,600.

Ethereum’s daily active addresses climbed above major layer-2 networks in January as lower fees revived on-chain activity.

BlackRock’s 2026 Thematic Outlook put Ethereum at the center of its tokenization thesis, asking whether the network could serve as a “toll road.” BlackRock stated that “of tokenized assets 65%+ are on Ethereum.” The framing pushes Ethereum into an infrastructure role rather than a directional call on ETH. A “toll road” model depends on where […] The post BlackRock backs Ethereum gatekeeping tokenization even though its market share is under threat appeared first on CryptoSlate.

Ethereum trades near $3,000 as it holds key support, with ETH/BTC at a crucial level and on-chain data pointing to continued accumulation.

A record surge in activity on the Ethereum network is likely being driven by scam-related behavior rather than genuine user growth, according to the bank's analysts.

Crypto Price Prediction Today has mapped levels: Bitcoin has traded near $89,500 in a triangle, with $87,000–$85,000 support and $80,000 risk; Ethereum has fallen below $3,000, with $2,700–$2,800 in view; XRP has held $1.80 as resistance sits near $2.50. Maxi Doge has reported ~70% staking APY, too. The post Crypto Price Prediction Today 21 January – XRP, Bitcoin, Ethereum appeared first on Cryptonews.

Ethereum is currently reporting the highest daily network growth in its history, a statistical surge that ostensibly signals a massive return of user activity. Over the past week, the Ethereum mainnet processed 2.9 million transactions, a new all-time high according to Token Terminal data. This activity was accompanied by a sharp jump in daily active […] The post How an industrial-scale scam is driving Ethereum transactions to record highs because of cheap gas fees appeared first on CryptoSlate.

When the Ethereum Foundation dropped a thread on Jan. 19 claiming “Ethereum is the #1 choice for global financial institutions” and backing it with 35 cited examples, it moved past the standard protocol update or developer announcement. It read like institutional marketing: a ranked claim, a curated evidence stack, and a call-to-action funnel pointing readers […] The post Ethereum is facing a brutal institutional “midlife crisis,” and the Foundation’s 35-point response reveals a shocking new reality appeared first on CryptoSlate.

Crypto market has slipped as Trump’s Greenland threats have weighed on risk assets. Bitcoin dominance has fallen since summer, keeping attention on XRP, Solana and Ethereum, alongside new U.S. spot ETFs. Traders have also tracked Bitcoin Hyper’s $30.8M presale and audit as EU-US tensions rise anew. The post Best Crypto to Buy Now January 20 – XRP, Solana, Ethereum appeared first on Cryptonews.

Institutions are using Ethereum to launch tokenized stocks, money market funds, stablecoins, and deposits.

Ethereum treasury firm BitMine added $108 million last week, but its stock is down as markets react to President Trump's latest tariff threats.

Ethereum holds $3,200 after a clean trendline retest, with rising volume, strong on-chain data, and $4K targets now back in view.

The record jump comes as Ethereum’s validator exit queue has dropped to zero while entry queues remain long.

Vitalik Buterin framed 2026 as the year Ethereum reverses a decade of convenience-first compromises. His thesis: the protocol stayed trustless, but the defaults drifted. Wallets outsourced verification to centralized RPCs. Decentralized applications became server-dependent behemoths that leak user data to dozens of endpoints. Block building is concentrated in the hands of a few sophisticated actors. […] The post Ethereum may finally kill “trust me” wallets in 2026, and Vitalik says the fix is already shipping appeared first on CryptoSlate.

More than 36 million ETH is now staked in Ethereum's proof-of-stake system, close to 30% of the circulating supply and worth over $118 billion at recent prices. That headline number sounds like a clean vote of confidence: holders are locking up their ETH to secure the network, collect yield, and signal they’re in no rush […] The post Ethereum staking just hit a $118B record at 30% of all coins, but one whale might be skewing the signal appeared first on CryptoSlate.

Vitalik Buterin warns that Ethereum’s push to add new features while preserving backward compatibility is inflating protocol complexity, calling for a “garbage collection” process. Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin is urging developers to confront the protocol bloat driven by an endless push to add new features while rarely removing old ones. In a Sunday post on X, Buterin argued that true trustlessness and self-sovereignty depend less on raw decentralization metrics and more on simplicity. “Even if a protocol is super decentralized with hundreds of thousands of nodes, and it has 49% byzantine fault tolerance, and nodes fully verify everything with quantum-safe peerdas and starks, if the protocol is an unwieldy mess of hundreds of thousands of lines of code and five forms of PhD-level cryptography, ultimately that protocol fails,” he claimed Read more
