Ethereum Foundation publishes new mandate defining its role, core principlesThe Ethereum Foundation published a 38-page document outlining its philosophy and role as a steward of the network.
The mandate comes amid broader changes around Ethereum’s roadmap and leadership, including the recent resignation of one of the foundation’s co-executive directors.
It emphasizes that Ethereum’s core mission is to enable user self-sovereignty, and that development must preserve censorship resistance, open source, privacy and security.

CFTC issues advisory on prediction markets as event contracts expand

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission’s Division of Market Oversight issued an advisory on prediction markets, reminding exchanges of their regulatory obligations as event contracts grow rapidly across trading platforms.

The guidance outlines requirements under the Commodity Exchange Act for designated contract markets listing event contracts, including product submission rules and core market integrity principles. The division said the advisory aims to support innovation while ensuring exchanges comply with existing regulations.

The notice also highlights considerations around sports-related event contracts, one of the fastest-growing areas of prediction market trading.

The advisory comes as the regulatory tone toward prediction markets has shifted. The previous administration sought to limit expansion of event contracts into new categories, but current CFTC Chairman Michael S. Selig has taken a more permissive approach since taking office in December.

Platforms such as Kalshi and Polymarket have helped drive the rapid expansion of prediction markets highlighted in the CFTC’s advisory. That growth accelerated after a court ruling in 2024 cleared the way for contracts tied to the US presidential election. Crypto.com soon launched sports prediction markets, with Kalshi later introducing similar offerings.

Polymarket, which previously operated an offshore platform offering sports trading, recently obtained licenses to launch a regulated US exchange focused on sports markets.

The sector has also attracted political connections, as Donald Trump Jr. serves as an adviser to Kalshi and Polymarket, while Trump Media and Technology Group is developing a prediction market product in partnership with Crypto.com.

Litecoin Founder Warns Satoshi's Bitcoins May Be First Target of Quantum Attacks

Litecoin (LTC) founder Charlie Lee warns that Satoshi Nakamoto's estimated 1.1 million Bitcoins ($BTC) are vulnerable to quantum-computing attacks.

The warning raises an uncomfortable governance dilemma for Bitcoin's decentralized community. If Satoshi is no longer alive or accessible, no one can migrate those coins to safety, and freezing them would mean compromising Bitcoin's foundational principles.

Why Satoshi's Bitcoins Are "Less Safe"

In an interview with BelnCrypto, Lee explained that while quantum computing could, in theory, crack current encryption methods, the technology hasn't yet reached that level in practice. Still, he emphasized that the threat extends far beyond cryptocurrency, potentially undermining the security infrastructure of global finance, communications, and more.

For crypto specifically, the stakes are high. If quantum computers were to break wallet encryption, anyone could access and spend someone else's funds, effectively destroying the foundation of the entire crypto ecosystem. However, not all wallets face the same risk.

"The million Bitcoins that Satoshi has. Nobody knows who Satoshi is.... Those coins are not well protected. They're actually less safe than current coins in terms of quantum attacks," Lee told BelnCrypto. "If quantum does happen, those will be the first coins that will be kind of broken into."

The vulnerability stems from the transaction format. In the earliest days of Bitcoin (2009-2010), most transactions used Pay-to-Public-Key (P2PK) scripts rather than the later Pay-to-Public-Key-Hash (P2PKH) format.

Aave and the Evolution of Digital Finances

Aave represents one of the strongest examples of how blockchain technology is transforming traditional finance.

From crypto experience, decentralized finance allows users to control their assets without relying on banks or centralized institutions.

Crypto gossip among analysts suggests DeFi protocols may become an essential component of future financial systems.

Sector insights highlight how lending, borrowing, and yield farming have become core activities within the DeFi ecosystem.

Price analysis shows AAVE trading between $85 and $105, while $110 remains resistance.

If market sentiment improves, AAVE could move toward $125-$135.

SEC working on 'narrower' exemption for tokenized securities: Hester Peirce

SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce said the agency is developing a “narrower” innovation exemption for tokenized securities, as suggested by the Investor Advisory Committee.

The IAC recommended that regulatory exemptions for tokenized securities should be on a “rule-by-rule” basis rather than through a “blanket” approach.

U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's Hester Peirce stated today that the agency is developing an innovation exemption for tokenized securities, but in a more restrictive manner.

"Commission staff is working on an innovation exemption to facilitate limited trading of certain tokenized securities—much narrower than the 'blanket' exemption mentioned in the draft recommendation," Commissioner Peirce said during a SEC Investor Advisory Committee meeting on Thursday, which discussed the subject matter.

The IAC, which advises the commission on regulatory priorities, recommended that the SEC not establish a sweeping "blanket" innovation exemption from existing securities rules for tokenized securities. Such crypto assets remain classified as securities under federal law.

In a Feb. 26 letter, the IAC's market structure subcommittee noted that such an approach could erode core investor protections, including clear disclosures of ownership rights, oversight of intermediaries, and order protections similar to those in traditional equity markets.

The subcommittee instead suggested a targeted, "rule-by-rule" reform approach, subject to public notice and comment before adoption.

"We further note that our recommendation focuses on high-level issues and principles, as the tokenization of equity securities remains at a very early stage and involves complex technological developments," the IAC wrote. "

BlackRock's staked Ethereum ETF records over $15.5 million volume on first day
BlackRock’s staked Ethereum ETF saw over $15.5 million in trading volume on its debut.

Bloomberg Analyst James Seyffart said the ETF had a “very solid” first day.
BlackRock's iShares Staked Ethereum Trust ETF (ETHB) posted over $15.5 million in trading volume on its first day of trading, according to Bloomberg ETF Analyst James Seyffart.

"Vast majority of the trading is done and we are at $15.5 million in trading volume," Seyffart wrote on social media platform X, adding that it is "very solid for a day 1 ETF launch." Seyffart noted earlier that ETHB launched with over $100 million in assets.

ETHB is BlackRock's first crypto ETF that incorporates staking. The world's largest asset manager first hinted at its plans to launch staked crypto funds in 2025. Its amended S-1 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission showed that the firm started acquiring ether in February for the launch of ETHB.

The fund stakes 70% to 95% of its ether holdings under normal market conditions, while the remaining 5% to 30% is held unstaked for creations, redemptions, and operational liquidity. Approximately 82% of staking rewards will be distributed monthly to holders, with 18% allocated to the sponsor and the execution agent.

ETHB carries a sponsor fee of 0.25% annually, temporarily reduced to 0.12% on the first $2.5 billion in assets for the first year following launch. 

Meanwhile, spot bitcoin and ether ETFs in the U.S. saw another day of net inflows on Thursday. Bitcoin ETFs reported $53.8 million in net inflows, marking their fourth consecutive day of positive flows. Ether ETFs posted $72.4 million in inflows. Spot Solana ETFs also recorded $4 million worth of inflows on Thursday.

Is the Bitcoin Fractal Still Alive?

You can say whatever you want, but two things continue to bother many crypto analysts:

A perfectly timed 52-week Bear Market and an almost flawless trendline on the linear scale.

There’s no way to know what Bitcoin OGs will decide until October, but so far this pattern continues to impress many observers. For now, all we can do is watch and wait.

We have several cycle charts, and @Alphractal’s The Repetition Fractal Cycle is truly a work of art. I described it back in 2021, when almost no one was talking about it, explaining that BTC showed an almost perfect 4-year cyclical pattern in the BTCUSD price and its market capitalization. This pattern has become even more consistent and precise since 2015.
