Ethereum Foundation Maps 2026 Protocol Priorities as Major Upgrades Near

The Ethereum Foundation has released its protocol priorities for 2026, outlining a structured roadmap organized into three key tracks: Scale, Improve UX, and Harden the L1. The Scale track, a consolidation of previous initiatives, focuses on increasing the gas limit toward and beyond 100 million, implementing EIP-7928 for block-level access lists, and advancing the scaling components of the upcoming "Glamsterdam" upgrade. This includes enshrined Proposer-Builder Separation (EIP-7732), further blob parameter increases, and progressing zkEVM and long-term state scaling work. The Improve UX track is centered on native account abstraction and interoperability. Key proposals like EIP-7702 aim to make smart contract wallets the default without extra overhead, while the Open Intents Framework seeks to enable seamless cross-L2 interactions. This work is also tied to improving security and migrating toward quantum-resistant signatures. The new Harden the L1 track is described as an insurance policy, focusing on post-quantum readiness, execution-layer safeguards, and enhancing censorship resistance through proposals like EIP-7805 (FOCIL). It also includes critical devnet and testnet coordination. The foundation is targeting the Glamsterdam upgrade for the first half of 2026, bundling these priorities, with another upgrade, Hegotá, planned for later in the year.

Ethereum Sets Three Core Priorities for 2026 Protocol Development

Ethereum has outlined its three core priorities for 2026 protocol development: scaling throughput, improving usability, and strengthening core security and resilience. This follows a productive 2025, which saw the Pectra and Fusaka upgrades. Pectra enabled smart contract-like features for regular wallets, while Fusaka introduced PeerDAS to increase data capacity. The major 2026 upgrades, Glamsterdam and Hegota, aim to process transactions in parallel, raise gas limits, expand data capacity for Layer-2s, and prepare for future security challenges like post-quantum threats. Meanwhile, ETH's price is down 2.6% in 24 hours, trading at $1,969.68.

When AI Reshapes the Shopping Journey, How Much Time Does PayPal Have Left?

PayPal's recent $200 million acquisition of Cymbio signals a strategic pivot to remain relevant in the emerging era of "Agentic Commerce," where AI agents increasingly handle product discovery, decision-making, and purchasing on behalf of users. This move aims to transform PayPal from a Web2 payment button into an embedded infrastructure layer within AI-driven commercial workflows, covering discovery, checkout, and fulfillment. The competitive landscape is rapidly evolving: Google and Shopify are developing the Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP) to control the routing layer, while OpenAI and Stripe are advancing the Agentic Commerce Protocol (ACP) to enable AI agents to execute transactions. Stripe, in particular, is positioning itself as the default "action layer" for AI commerce, mirroring its success as the internet’s payment API. Major forecasts suggest Agentic Commerce could capture $1 trillion in U.S. retail sales by 2030, representing up to one-third of online retail. For PayPal, Stripe, and other fintech players, the challenge is to embed themselves into these new protocol-based ecosystems—or risk being sidelined. Banks retain advantages in clearing and compliance but must adapt quickly, while crypto remains largely absent from current frameworks, presenting both a risk and potential opportunity. PayPal’s acquisition is less an offensive move than a necessary bid to maintain its seat at the table.

Vitalik Buterin Says ETH-Backed Algorithmic Stablecoins Qualify as ‘True DeFi’

Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum, argues that well-designed ETH-backed algorithmic stablecoins represent "true DeFi" because they structurally transfer U.S. dollar counterparty risk from users to market makers. He criticizes USDC-based yield strategies for relying on centralized infrastructure and failing to embody core DeFi principles. Buterin emphasizes that algorithmic models using smart contracts for collateralized debt positions offer a structural advantage over fiat-backed stablecoins by minimizing central counterparty risk. While acknowledging challenges like oracle and peg stability risks, he asserts that these mechanisms do not undermine their decentralized foundation. This perspective shifts focus from yield generation to risk architecture in stablecoin design and DeFi innovation.

EverValue Announces Burn Vault Boost Upgrade to Its On-Chain Backing Mechanism

EverValue (EVA) has announced the launch of the Burn Vault Boost upgrade on February 6, enhancing its existing on-chain backing and burn mechanism. This new feature introduces an additional vault that operates alongside the original Burn Vault Core. Instead of distributing Bitcoin (BTC) backing uniformly across the entire token supply, the Boost applies it to a predefined subset of tokens. This change is designed to increase the sensitivity of the reference burn value to BTC deposits over time. The Burn Vault Core continues to back the full circulating supply of EVA, while the Boost complements it by altering how backing is distributed. The upgrade is implemented via on-chain smart contracts, with all backing levels and reference values publicly verifiable. User participation is passive and requires no action beyond holding tokens. The mechanism has undergone a security audit by CertiK. EverValue is an on-chain protocol that integrates Bitcoin mining with a fixed-supply token model and transparent backing mechanics.

XRPL prepares for ‘institutional DeFi’ – Will it boost XRP price?

Key stakeholders in the XRPL ecosystem are pushing for institutional DeFi adoption, with the upcoming 'XRP Lending Protocol' (XLS-66) seen as a critical upgrade. Evernorth, a major XRP treasury firm, announced it will make this protocol its core strategy, believing it could unlock a multi-billion-dollar annual yield opportunity and fundamentally shift institutional on-chain liquidity. Currently, the XRPL DeFi ecosystem lags behind rivals like BNB Chain and Solana, with its TVL dropping to $100 million, compared to their billions. However, Ripple’s stablecoin RLUSD has grown rapidly, surpassing $1 billion in supply. Market signals are mixed: 42 wallets holding over 1 million XRP have resumed accumulation for the first time since September, indicating long-term confidence. Yet, large holders remain net sellers overall, though selling pressure has slightly eased. XRP price consolidated around $1.7, awaiting broader market direction.

What The New On-Chain Lending Amendment Means For XRP

The XRP Ledger has advanced its financial capabilities with the release of version 3.1.0, introducing a native on-chain lending feature now in the validator voting phase. This update includes the critical "fixBatchInnerSigs" amendment, which addresses a signature validation flaw to ensure secure batch processing for lending operations. The new protocol will enable fixed-rate, fixed-term lending and borrowing for XRP, RLUSD, and other on-chain assets, using Single Asset Vaults to isolate risk and mirror traditional finance lending. However, activation requires over 80% validator approval sustained for two weeks, a threshold not yet met. This amendment is part of XRPL's ongoing upgrades to enhance utility and institutional adoption.
