Ethereum’s new staking limit is not a risk to decentralization, says Consensys researcher
Ethereum’s Pectra upgrade doesn’t pose a threat to decentralization, according to Mallesh Pai, senior research director at blockchain software firm Consensys, describing the update as a cleanup of the behind-the-scenes “busy work” currently handled by validators. During a May 9 Cointelegraph X Space, Pai said a validator’s chances of proposing a block or earning rewards remain tied to how much ETH they hold, adding that larger validators don’t gain any new advantages under the upgrade: “Rewards continue to be proportional to the amount of ETH you have. […] it’s not…
Ethereum’s price gap with Bitcoin could set stage for comeback for first time since 2019
After years of underperformance, Ethereum’s price gap with Bitcoin could pave the way for a long-awaited rebound, analysts say. Ethereum (ETH) has been struggling for the past five months, losing momentum to both Bitcoin (BTC) and other altcoins. Despite this, there’s hope that May, historically Ethereum’s strongest month, could bring a shift in momentum. Since 2016, Ethereum has averaged nearly 28% return in May, according to data from Coinglass, and this year, analysts are watching closely for signs of a potential rebound.

Frictionless flows are Ethereum’s path to economic dominance
Opinion by: Barna Kiss, CEO of Malda An idea recently floated by some prominent thinkers in the Ethereum space to reclaim value for the mainnet is the taxing of its Layer-2s. The future of Ethereum does not depend on policy but on enabling frictionless capital movement between the L2s in question. Tariffing rollups may appear a neat way to reclaim value for the mainnet. In practice, it would fragment the ecosystem, drain liquidity, push users toward centralized platforms, and avoid decentralized finance altogether. In a permissionless system, capital flows to…
12 minutes of nail-biting tension when Ethereum’s Pectra fork goes live
Ethereum developers will be holding their breath for the 12 minutes it takes to work out if Ethereum’s Pectra hard fork has finalized properly after it’s deployed tomorrow. During every Ethereum hard fork, there is roughly a 12-minute period — the time it takes for two epochs — where over a hundred tireless Ethereum developers vigilantly monitor the state of the network for signs of problems, wondering, Did we do enough? Every time Ethereum goes through a major hard fork — which is like replacing components of an airplane in…
