Crypto prices are falling again Monday, but Bitcoin, XRP, and Ethereum funds are coming off a strong week for flows following recent losses.

Buterin warns that quantum computers could threaten Ethereum’s cryptography sooner than expected and outlines how the network can prepare safely. Buterin sees a nontrivial 20% chance that quantum computers could break current cryptography before 2030, and he argues that Ethereum should begin preparing for that possibility. A key risk involves ECDSA. Once a public key is visible onchain, a future quantum computer could, in theory, use it to recover the corresponding private key. Buterin’s quantum emergency plan involves rolling back blocks, freezing EOAs and moving funds into quantum-resistant smart contract wallets. Read more

Eclipse combines high-throughput execution with Ethereum settlement in a way no other L2 has attempted. Cointelegraph Research breaks down the architecture and the milestones that will define its trajectory. The majority of Ethereum rollups have converged on a single model, in which the EVM is still the execution engine. So parallel execution remains a vague ambition rather than a feature of most Ethereum L2s. Eclipse takes a different path. It brings the Solana Virtual Machine into an Ethereum-anchored environment and restructures the rollup stack around it. The latest report by Cointelegraph Research examines how this design emerged, the problems it solves and what questions it raises for the broader layer-2 ecosystem. It highlights where Eclipse diverges from existing rollups and why these differences matter for developers, users and institutions. Read the full report here to explore Eclipse’s architecture, economics and path toward verifiable rollup status. Read more

Ether price held $2,800 support amid ETF inflows and undervalued signals, but $3,000 resistance and Bank of Japan rate hike fears stopped the recovery. Ether (ETH) fell to $2,800 on Monday, failing to hold $3,000 as surging expectations of a Bank of Japan rate hike unnerved the market. Meanwhile, technicals and onchain data sent mixed signals on Ether’s ability to buck the downtrend.  Key points: Ethereum price fell 5.5% on Monday, dropping below $3,000 again amid Bank of Japan rate-hike fears.

Ethereum educator Anthony Sassano said Ethereum’s gas limit could climb beyond three times next year, with some developers pushing for a fivefold increase. Ethereum educator Anthony Sassano said the goal to significantly increase Ethereum’s gas limit to 180 million next year is a baseline rather than a best-case scenario. “I think that’s the floor, that’s the minimum, I think we can go higher than that,” Sassano said during an interview on the Bankless podcast on Friday, just a day after Ethereum’s gas limit, which is the maximum amount of work the network allows in each block, was raised from 45 million to 60 million. “The general consensus that has been set by the core developers and researchers is that they want to aim for at least a 3X increase in the gas limit for the next couple of years,” he said.  Read more

Despite the market downturn and some OG investors selling, the biggest Ether whales continue their steady accumulation, while Ether ETF buyer sentiment continues to improve. While some Ethereum OGs are cashing out, the top 1% richest Ether holders continue to quietly accumulate the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency, despite the market downturn. An Ethereum initial coin offering (ICO) participant sold another $60 million in Ether (ETH) on Wednesday after generating a 9,500-fold return on investment over the past 11 years. During the ICO, the investor purchased their Ether for about $0.31 per token, spending a total of $79,000 on 254,000 Ether tokens, now worth over $757 million, according to blockchain data platform Lookonchain.  Read more

Ethereum trades near its 2016 trendline with RSI and MACD showing early strength. Analysts watch $3K zone as possible launch point.

Europe’s leading asset manager Amundi is launching the first tokenized money market fund, and it has chosen the Ethereum blockchain.

Bitcoin has come off record highs, while XRP, Solana, Ethereum and Bitcoin Hyper have drawn fresh attention from traders assessing whether an altcoin-led cycle now offers the best balance of payments, DeFi, meme-driven Layer-2 exposure and ETF flows into 2026.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin supported two privacy messaging apps that are looking to break past sector leaders Signal and Telegram.

Ethereum rebounds from $2,800 support as RSI breaks trend. Whale wallets grow, and ETH/BTC eyes breakout. Is a bigger move coming?

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin said he expects growth to continue next year, but with smarter adjustments that expand capacity without new bottlenecks. Ethereum crossed a threshold in execution capacity as its mainnet block gas limit reached 60 million, the highest level the network has seen in four years.  Data tracker Gas Limit Pics showed that in November, over 513,000 validators signaled a 60 million gas limit, pushing the Ethereum network over the threshold needed for the protocol to begin moving the gas limit upward.   A higher gas limit allows Ethereum to fit more work into each block, including swaps, token transfers and smart contract calls. In practice, that can ease congestion during busy periods and help the network process more activity at the base layer. Read more

Ethereum holds above $2,620 support as analysts eye $10K. MVRV Z-Score nears buy zone, while $3K remains key resistance level for bulls.

Ethereum has doubled its gas limit from roughly 30 million to 60 million in a year, increasing throughput as client teams back a higher-capacity mainnet while Vitalik Buterin outlines targeted opcode changes and a gradual scaling roadmap alongside proto-danksharding. The post Vitalik Buterin: Ethereum’s Growth Will Be “Less Uniform” as Gas Costs Face Targeted Adjustments appeared first on Cryptonews.

Despite Ether’s drop below $3,000, data suggested that ETH price could see a sustained recovery over the next few weeks, as long as the $2,800 support level held. Ether (ETH) price is up 11% since plunging below the $3,000 mark on Nov. 22, reclaiming key support levels. Analysts say that increased demand from institutions, coupled with the end of quantitative tightening, could lead to a recovery toward $3,600 next. Key takeaways: Ethereum demand is recovering along with ETF inflows. Read more

A car accident left Trevor Koverko with brain injuries. But his fortunes turned around when Vitalik handed him the Ethereum white paper. Not everyone can say they were there when history was being made. But former ice hockey star Trevor Koverko, on the mend from a serious car accident, witnessed it firsthand in his hometown. I was at a meet-up in Toronto and this guy named Vitalik was handing out documents, which turned out to be the Ethereum whitepaper. We had a cluster of really important high-profile people that came out of that time in Toronto. Vitalik, Joe Lubin and Charles Hoskinson, for example. In Canada, ice hockey is its own kind of subculture. Koverko had fallen in love with the sport at a young age, and by the time he was a teen, he was competing at the semi-pro level and moved away from home, playing to crowds of 10,000. Read more
