The Ethereum Glamsterdam upgrade is expected to explore protocol-level proposer-builder separation and block-level access lists, with Sepolia testing targeted for October 2026. Here’s what those changes could mean for Ethereum execution, MEV, developers and the mainnet timeline.
Ethereum’s Fusaka upgrade brings PeerDAS into the conversation about Layer 2 data availability, blob capacity, and rollup costs. Learn what throughput gains could mean in September 2026, how to track them, and which risks matter to ETH users and investors.
Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency, faces a decline in decentralized application activity by 17%. Current challenges include scalability issues, lower staking yields, and increasing competition from Solana and BNB Chain. Despite these setbacks, Ethereum remains a leader in the market, but its underperformance compared to Bitcoin raises concerns for the future.
A Texas federal judge dismissed a lawsuit filed by ConsenSys against the SEC over how Ethereum is classified. The ruling focused on procedural issues and did not delve into the substance of ConsenSys' claims, marking a notable setback for the blockchain firm in its effort to clarify Ethereum's status and MetaMask services.
Ethereum is going through a challenging phase as its decentralized application (DApp) activity declines by 17%. While the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap remains a leader in development and activity, increased competition from Solana and BNB Chain coupled with rising transaction costs and lower staking yields present significant challenges.

The Ethereum mainnet is home to nearly 900k validators—each a potential goldmine of data. Understanding these validators is essential for refining the Ethereum protocol, but current data dashboards are insufficient and lack anonymity. This article delves into the use of zero-knowledge (ZK) proofs to collect crucial validator information without compromising privacy.
Understanding the distribution of Ethereum’s execution-layer (EL) and consensus-layer (CL) clients used by validators is essential for a resilient network. While current methods estimate Beacon Chain client distribution, execution client distribution remains elusive. This proposal focuses on developing a research-backed method to submit and extract crucial data privately, ensuring user anonymity and network performance are not compromised.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin recently transferred approximately $10 million worth of ETH to wallets linked with crypto exchanges, sparking widespread speculation about his intentions. Data from Arkham Intelligence reveals a more extensive pattern of ETH outflows from Buterin's address, adding fuel to the rumors. However, Buterin has clarified that his transfers aim to support various projects rather than profit-taking.
Ethereum has notably underperformed Bitcoin by 44% since its switch to a proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus mechanism, according to data from CryptoQuant. This shift, known as 'The Merge,' occurred two years ago but has failed to meet expectations, leading to greater concerns for Ethereum's future performance.
