Ethereum’s institutional staking boom is growing, but Lido’s share is shrinking
Lido captured just 5.7% of H1 staking growth, while a negative NEST budget shows why deposits alone cannot fund purchases.
The fight over Ethereum’s supply is forcing a choice between high staking yields and the value of your ETH
EF Protocol wants a broader issuance debate, while unchanged rewards preserve validator income and dilution for unstaked holders.
Ethereum’s 2029 quantum deadline is starting to reshape what gets built next
EF Protocol’s priorities make shorter slots and node efficiencies conditional, while a proposal could move mandatory execution proofs one fork later.
A seven-year-old blockchain is permanently abandoning its own network to seek refuge on Ethereum
The plan would move ONE to Ethereum after an exploit and rollback, while urging users to exit smart contracts before Sept. 10.
Ethereum arbitrage study reveals builders receive $5 for every $1 burned by the network
Bitquery's 30-day sample separates trading proceeds from ETH supply reduction, while builders' onward payments leave final profit shares unresolved.
Ethereum’s privacy push hits a numbers problem: one proof needs nearly twice the proposed gas allowance
An open Frames change would allow extra validation work at individual nodes, while studied privacy proofs still exceed its shared 100,000-gas allowance.
Ethereum may have a simpler way to ease the computing burden of its growing rollup ecosystem
A reduced RowDAS design shares reconstruction duties in 1,000-node tests, while retaining reliance on high-custody nodes.
Ethereum’s Vitalik Buterin puts 60% odds on a cryptography breakthrough that could weaken Wall Street middlemen
The 60% applies to an undated outcome for all three primitives; only at least one, probably SNARKs, is tied to decade-end.
How Bitmine could surpass its 5% Ethereum goal without buying more ETH
A two-year model needs about 74% reward retention with flat ETH supply, rising to 96.5% at 0.5% annual supply growth.

A 36-day staking bottleneck is costing Ethereum depositors over $350,000 in lost rewards daily
The 35.75-day backlog represents an annualized opportunity-cost estimate as deposits share a 256 ETH-per-epoch activation gate.
Ethereum’s plan to triple network speed could silently break millions of existing smart contracts
Most replay failures need higher limits, while a smaller counterfactual cohort may require code changes or migration.
Ethereum and Solana are hosting trillions in dollar volume, yet their native tokens risk losing direct consumer demand
Paymasters and sponsors can keep native tokens out of sight, but Ethereum and Solana still require fees funded in ETH or SOL.
Ledger patched an Ethereum app bug that could show one transaction and sign another
Version 1.22.2 adds two signing-state safeguards, but public physical validation of the alleged substitution path is limited to Flex.
Ethereum proposal would cut 33,800 ETH issuance and break every deployed Altair light client
EIP-8390 proposes offchain ZK finality proofs but defines no replacement API or prover incentive and supplies no reproducible GPU benchmark.
Saylor sat out Bitcoin’s 20% rally while Tom Lee bought Ethereum after a 30% surge
Bitcoin and Ethereum surged last week as falling Treasury yields, renewed US crypto optimism, and a wave of short liquidations sent digital assets sharply higher. Bitcoin climbed more than 20% and approached $80,000, while Ethereum gained about 30% in its strongest weekly advance since May 2025. The rally drew fresh $2.6 billion in ETF inflows, …
Ethereum researchers are racing to close a zkEVM security gap before December
The better.codes contest puts Ethereum’s abstract security target against live certificates, but its score covers only koalaIRS12.
