A languishing chain appears to have triggered community uproar and a leadership shakeup at the Ethereum Foundation.

Ethereum Foundation's announced restructuring has sparked community debate and led to discussions about creating a second organization, with Lido founder Konstantin Lomashuk emerging as a potential leader despite clarifying that no alternative foundation currently exists.

At a time when the Ethereum Foundation is facing strong criticism for its alleged failure to support its network developers, a new Ethereum-focused startup, Etheralize, which aims to promote Ethereum to institutional investors, has been launched by Vivek Raman, with the support of Ethereum Co-Founder Vitalik Buterin and the foundation.

Ethereum, the world's second-largest blockchain by market capitalization, has unveiled Etherealize. This initiative aims to accelerate institutional adoption of the Ethereum ecosystem.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin has recently shared his vision for a new upgrade system aimed at accelerating the network's growth, scalability, and data availability. This proposal, made public through a recent post, highlights the need for quicker updates and more aggressive scaling measures to secure Ethereum's future as a leading blockchain platform.

Etherealize, backed by Vitalik Buterin and the Ethereum Foundation, aims to make Ethereum the top blockchain for Wall Street.

Ethereum has been consolidating in a tight price range for several months, trading between $3,200 and $3,500. Despite the broader market's recent upward movement, ETH still struggles to break out of this range.

The Ethereum blockchain's earnings from fees saw a 3% year-on-year rise from 2023 to 2024 despite the Dencun upgrade early last year, which reduced network fees.

While Bitcoin surged 160% over the past year, Ether only rose 40%. Ethereum faces competition and challenges in regaining momentum.

The crypto community is relieved as Trump pardoned Silk Road creator Ross Ulbricht.

As a result, the Ethereum community is now asking for Trump's assistance in this matter.

If your founder is not pivoting to a Bronze Age Mindset in 2025 you're NGMI.

In the world of crypto, it is generally expected that innovation and decentralization go hand in hand. However, a recent controversy surrounding the leadership of Ethereum has shaken this ideal.

Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency, recently failed to breach $3,524, triggering a sharp price drop. Since then, recovery efforts have remained weak as volatility persists.

TL;DR Justin Sun proposes halting ETH sales for three years, funding operations through DeFi activities like lending, staking, and stablecoin generation on platforms like Aave. Taxes on Layer 2 projects could generate $5 billion annually for ETH buybacks and reduce its supply, strengthening its position as a deflationary asset.

Here are the odds of ETH short-term recovery amid abating selling pressure.

Following Donald Trump's inauguration as the 47th president of the United States, his company, World Liberty Financial, has dramatically increased its exposure to Ethereum (ETH) in just the past 24 hours.
