The Ethereum Foundation has begun staking part of its treasury and plans to allocate up to 70,000 ETH, as the network's staked supply approaches one-third of circulating ETH.
Ethereum rose about 4% over the past 24 hours to reclaim the $2,000 mark after BitMine — led by Tom Lee — disclosed a new ETH purchase that brings its treasury to roughly $9 billion. The move appears to have bolstered market sentiment following a weekend dip below $2,000.
Vitalik Buterin on March 2, 2026 proposed a plan to reduce centralization among Ethereum block builders and tackle “toxic MEV,” where visible pending transactions are exploited for front-running and sandwich attacks. The measures aim to improve fairness and transaction privacy for ETH users.
Vitalik Buterin has published EIP-7864 alongside a staged roadmap to replace the EVM with Binary State Trees and RISC‑V primitives, aiming to boost proving efficiency and simplify Ethereum's core execution. The plan targets faster zk-proof generation and a leaner protocol design.
Former Ripple CTO David Schwartz said on X that he sold 40,000 ETH at $1.05 and briefly felt like an "investment genius." The post highlights the huge hindsight gap early crypto trades can create.
Ethereum co‑founder Vitalik Buterin said smart accounts enabled by account abstraction should arrive within a year, aiming to remove intermediaries and simplify user experience. He called eliminating middlemen a “core principle of non-ugly cypherpunk Ethereum.”
Vitalik Buterin published a new proposal refocusing effort on base-layer scaling for Ethereum after years of emphasis on Layer-2 rollups. The plan aims to boost throughput and reduce fees while protecting decentralization.
The Ethereum Foundation has started Project Odin, a 12‑month initiative embedding advisors into critical infrastructure teams like Vyper to develop sustainable, non‑grant funding models. The program's first cohort is now live.
Ethereum jumped past $2,000 ahead of Friday’s options expiry, driven by bullish derivatives flows and renewed spot demand. Traders should expect heightened volatility as positions roll or unwind.
Vitalik Buterin outlined a four-year roadmap to decouple slots from finality so each can be analyzed independently, aiming to speed block processing and enable quantum-resistant upgrades.
