Historical data suggests a correlation between the Ethereum Foundation’s sell-offs and ETH price fluctuations, but it's not a guaranteed relationship. Ultimately, it remains a matter of probability.

A comprehensive outlook on the upcoming Ethereum Pectra upgrade: a detailed overview of the technological improvements and optimizations included in the upgrade.

This article provides a comprehensive analysis of the economic design of fraud proof systems in Ethereum rollups, using Arbitrum, Optimism, Cartesi, and Kroma as case studies, and highlights their importance to security.

A new framework called based rollups is gaining attention as a new approach for scaling rollups. Read on to learn what based rollups are, how they work, and how they compare to other types of rollups.

This article provides a detailed overview of NEAR Protocol, a decentralized open-source platform designed to address blockchain scalability issues through its innovative Nightshade sharding technology and Threshold Proof of Stake (TPoS) consensus mechanism. NEAR Protocol supports developers in building high-performance decentralized applications (dApps) and has attracted a broad user base with its user-friendly account naming system and smart contract accessibility without the need for a wallet. The article also explores NEAR Protocol's unique technologies, such as the Rainbow Bridge and the Aurora Layer 2 solution, as well as the economic model of the NEAR token and its applications within the ecosystem, including Ref Finance and Burrow. Additionally, it discusses how NEAR Protocol achieves cross-chain interoperability through Chain Signatures and how the Burrow v2 upgrade enhances the performance and user experience of DeFi platforms. The vision of NEAR Protocol is to create an efficient, secure, and easily

This article discusses the current state, challenges, and future trends of the Ethereum wallet ecosystem, including an analysis of the characteristics of different types of wallets and their roles in order flow, as well as an exploration of the impacts of centralization in the block building market.

CORN is an innovative Layer 2 solution for Ethereum that uses Bitcoin as its primary fuel. CORN boosts transaction efficiency by integrating the VeCHAIN Super Yield Network and the Crop Circle system while creating new DeFi opportunities for Bitcoin holders. The project uses $BTCN, a token tied 1:1 to Bitcoin for fuel, and $CORN as its governance token. CORN also includes a Kernels point system, encouraging users to contribute by depositing assets, completing tasks, and inviting others. Backed by experienced DeFi experts and major investors, CORN aims to bridge the Bitcoin and Ethereum ecosystems and drive innovation in BTCFi.

This article demonstrates whether the mismatch between price and demand can be alleviated by increasing the minimum base fee for Blobs. Overall, this adjustment has limited impact on transaction costs, especially for efficient Blob submitters, the fee increase is minimal.

As a DA layer, Ethereum provides a cheap and maximally trustless way for rollups to sacrifice decentralization to attract more users while ensuring the sovereignty of their user's assets.

With the forthcoming gas markets and the ability to buy Entire Blocks, we look at how to price these taking into account prevailing market Volatility, Token prices, Transaction Fees, and Liquidity.

In this note, we investigate the question of embedded fee markets, i.e., fee markets which “live” within other fee markets.

In the process of an infinite game, finite games may occur, but finite games cannot encompass an infinite game. For example, the competition and debate within Ethereum are not aimed at allowing a particular player to win, but rather at continuously improving Ethereum to make it more refined.

Crypto assets can be part of your estate and passed to beneficiaries upon death. However, seek legal counsel, ensure your heirs are tech-savvy, or consider using third-party inheritance managers.

Grayscale’s Ethereum Trust is a financial product that enables you to invest in Ether in a simple, accessible and comfortable way. It is designed to allow you to invest in the cryptocurrency through a familiar stock-like structure.

This document was motivated by our work on the FOCIL consensus spec 19, where we realized that the protocol required more thoughtful consideration around resource constraints since certain details were not explicitly specified in the FOCIL Ethereum research post 12.
