Buterin Discusses Metrics for “Aligning” with Ethereum Values
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin proposed developing a set of metrics to assess how well projects “align” with the values of Ethereum.
According to him, achieving “alignment” within the network remains one of the most important social challenges in the ecosystem of the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. The network consists of numerous people and organizations — validators, researchers, L2 solutions, app developers, and community groups.
“The main task is to ensure that all these projects collectively create something resembling a unified Ethereum ecosystem, rather than 138 incompatible feudal domains,” Buterin wrote.

For the third consecutive week, there have been inflows into crypto funds
According to CoinShares, from September 15 to 21, $1.29 billion was invested in cryptocurrency funds, a significant increase compared to the $321 million received the previous week.
The positive trend has continued for the third week in a row, which analysts attribute to expectations of additional measures from the Federal Reserve (Fed) following the 50 basis point interest rate cut on September 18. This rate cut may have acted as a catalyst for increasing interest in crypto assets as an alternative to traditional investment instruments.
The total value of assets under management in crypto funds grew by 6.2%, reaching…

Bitwise has filed an application for the registration of an XRP ETF
This move comes amid growing interest from institutional investors in crypto assets, despite ongoing regulatory disputes.
The firm has yet to disclose details about the structure or launch date of the fund, leaving investors in anticipation. Nonetheless, this step by Bitwise is a significant event for the market, as it could become the first spot ETF based on XRP, pending regulatory approval.

This statement has generated significant interest as FTX continues the process of restructuring and settling its financial obligations to creditors and investors.

Today, Ethereum holds a leading position among smart contract platforms due to its large number of applications, developers, and the highest revenue from fees over the past 30 days.
Why is it so difficult to compete with Ethereum?

This “first-mover advantage” provides Ethereum with a significant competitive edge: the first company or product in a new field gains an advantage simply by being first to enter the market and establish itself in the minds…

SEC Appeals Court Ruling in Ripple Case
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has filed an appeal with the Second Circuit Court, challenging the court’s August ruling in the case against Ripple.
In a comment to The Block, an SEC representative noted that the court’s verdict “contradicts decades of Supreme Court precedent and federal law.”
Judge Analisa Torres fined Ripple $125 million, whereas the SEC had sought $2 billion. The court’s decision partially upheld the Commission’s demands, including banning the company from further violations of securities laws.

Experts predict the formation of a “golden cross” in the Coinbase premium
The Coinbase premium is often considered an indicator of demand among retail investors in the US—the higher the premium, the stronger the buying pressure.
Analysts examined the metric on an hourly interval, using 24-hour and 168-hour moving averages (HMA). They noted that the crossing of the 24 HMA with the 168 HMA from below was accompanied by significant price movements.
At the moment, the Coinbase premium has already surpassed the 168 HMA (marked by a black arrow), and the gap between the moving averages continues to narrow, according to CryptoQuant.

In 2009, Satoshi Nakamoto may have initiated a 51% attack on the Bitcoin network
This was reported by an analyst under the pseudonym Wicked. A 51% attack is a situation where a miner or group of miners gains control of more than half of the network’s computational power, potentially allowing them to manipulate the blockchain, alter transactions, block new blocks, or even double-spend coins.
However, as the analyst asserts, this attack was not malicious. Instead, it was a planned stress test of the system. The likely goal of the attack was to identify weaknesses in the blockchain’s operation in its early stages. As a result, Nakamoto could adjust the mining difficulty — the…

Bitcoin will update ATH in May-June 2025?
The data follows from the CoinMarketCap report. In the fourth cycle, bitcoin is significantly ahead of the usual trend, and as a result, the asset could update its all-time high 100 days ahead of schedule.
Bitcoin cycles are closely correlated with halving. In this case, the asset reaches a new ATH between 518 and 546 days since halving.
Following this trend, we can expect the asset to update the high in late 2025 or early 2026.
