🤔 #ETH Vitalik Buterin stated that Ethereum’s execution-layer upgrades focus on state tree restructuring and VM changes to improve proof-efficiency. EIP-7864 aims to replace the current hexary Merkle Patricia Tree with a binary tree that utilizes a more efficient hash function, which would shorten Merkle branches, reduce bandwidth and proof costs, and optimize storage access. In the long term, a more proof-friendly VM like RISC-V could gradually replace the EVM, starting with precompiles, followed by contract deployment, and eventually running the EVM as a compatibility layer with adjusted Gas costs to maintain backward compatibility. link

🇺🇸🕵️ A JPMorgan Chase report indicates that the U.S. CLARITY Act could pass by mid-year, potentially serving as a catalyst for regulatory clarity in the second half of the year. This could end “regulation by enforcement,” boost tokenization, and support institutional adoption, with key debates focusing on stablecoin yield treatment and conflict-of-interest limits. Potential benefits include clearer token classification, lighter registration for new projects, defined intermediary rules, support for RWA tokenization, tax clarity on small transactions and staking, and advantages for institutional tokenized deposits. #regulation link

🇺🇸📊 QCP notes that amid rising tensions in Iran, crypto markets remain range-bound, with Bitcoin briefly hitting $63K and Ethereum at $1,910 before recovering. Saturday’s U.S. strike caused approximately $300M in long liquidations but was contained, indicating reduced positions and some capital shifting to 24-hour assets like tokenized gold. Options reacted moderately, with 1-day implied volatility spiking to 93% but staying below 60%. After a similar strike last June, Bitcoin briefly fell below $100K, rebounded, and later rose to $123K. Current call buying on March 74K and 75K strikes suggests investors are positioning for a potential March rebound.
