Ethereum Draft Targets Faster Finality and Future Quantum Defense
Ethereum researchers want to slash transaction finality from roughly 16 minutes to 4 minutes, potentially cutting the capital tied up in cross-chain transfers by 75%. Filed this week, the Decoupled Consensus proposal would separate validator responsibilities, strengthen defenses against blockchain reorganizations, and prepare Ethereum for future quantum-resistant cryptography. The ambitious redesign remains an incomplete draft without an approved launch date.

New DeepSeek ban in US, Swiss-Asia crypto ties deepen: Asia Express
The US Treasury has proposed new rules that would block investment in artificial intelligence projects (sorry, βSuper Intelligenceβ projects) and certain high risk semiconductors in some foreign countries. The blocks have been mainly aimed at geopolitical rival China, but will now also encompass other adversaries including Russia, Iran, North Korea and Cuba. The rules would implement the COINS Act from December 2025 and expand the Outbound Investment Security Program that went into effect in January 2025.
