šŸŖ™ Vitalik Buterin stated that Ethereum is NOT trying to become the fastest network or compete with exchanges: its primary goal is to remain the most secure, decentralized, and resilient system for storing digital assets.

He added that the network is focusing on AI-powered code review and protection against quantum threats so that Ethereum can operate even without constant developer input.

He also criticized L2 networks that simply copy Ethereum and make it more centralized. According to him, a useful L2 must develop its own mechanics and address specific application needs, rather than being "Ethereum, only faster."

šŸ‡°šŸ‡· South Korea's tax service ordered the development of a system for tracking crypto transactions, including analysis of non-custodial wallets and connections between addresses — launch is planned for this year.

🐰 Almost the entire crypto market revolves around stables — up to 85% of spot volumes on TOP-CEX pass through stablecoin pairs, and not with BTC or fiat.

In essence, this is no longer just a tool — it's the main "rail" along which crypto liquidity moves.
