以太坊的未来展望

现货以太坊 ETF 终于面世了。

从初期的交易量来看,这次推出相当成功。

ETF面世后,以太坊还有哪些长期催化剂?

然而,正如我们所见,ETH 在推出后开始下跌。

在本期文章中,我将讨论这背后的原因,ETH 价格的未来走势,以及以太坊即将迎来的两个重要催化剂。

我对 ETH 价格走势的预期

我认为,ETH 目前表现不如 BTC 的主要有两个原因:

  • 现货 ETH ETF 的推出是一个“卖消息”事件:这种现象在现货 BTC ETF 推出后短期内也发生过。

ETF面世后,以太坊还有哪些长期催化剂?

由于现货 ETH ETF 几个月前就获得批准,所有想要购买 ETH 的人都有足够的时间这样做。因此,提前知道的催化剂往往会成为“卖消息”事件。

  • ETH ETF 的推出解锁了 Grayscale 以太坊信托基金中的 90 亿美元 ETH:这些 ETH 被锁定了多年,现在持有者终于可以出售,因此很多人正在抛售。

那么这次下跌需要多长时间才能结束呢?

在 BTC 的案例中,现货 BTC ETF 推出后约两周触底。之后,价格横盘几天,然后创下历史新高。

如果未来几周对现货以太坊 ETF 的需求很高,ETH 也可能会出现类似情况。但要实现这一点,ETH ETF 的净流量需要转正。

例如,昨天由于 Grayscale 以太坊信托基金的抛售压力,ETH ETF 出现了 1.33 亿美元的流出

短期内对 ETH 也有一些合理的担忧:

以太坊即将迎来的催化剂

我还想谈谈以太坊即将迎来的两个重要催化剂。

第一个是以太坊 ETF 质押的批准。这可能会显著增加对现货以太坊 ETF 的需求。虽然每年约 3.2% 的 ETH 质押收益率看起来不多,但由于 ETH 的年通胀率较低,并且质押可以获得收益,这可能会使 ETH 比 BTC 对某些机构更具吸引力。

根据 SEC 委员的说法,以太坊 ETF 质押“始终可以重新考虑”,因此其批准只是时间问题。

第二个催化剂是 Pectra 的发布,这是以太坊的下一个硬分叉。这一重大升级预计将在今年第四季度末或 2024 年第一季度进行。Pectra 将引入几个重大变化:

  • 使以太坊账户地址更加可编程

  • 将 ETH 验证者的最大质押从 32 增加到 2048 ETH

通过使以太坊账户地址更加可编程,Pectra 将带来显著的链上用户体验改进。

例如,它将支持批量发送交易、开发钱包的社交恢复功能,并允许 dApp 支付用户的 gas 费用。这样的用户体验升级是加密货币实现大规模采用所需要的。

Wash's Jackson Hole Debut: Bidding Farewell to 'Forward Guidance', Reshaping Fed Discipline Amidst the Squeeze Between AI and Inflation

In his first Jackson Hole speech, new Fed Chair Kevin Warsh signaled a significant shift in monetary policy communication. He declared that "forward guidance," a tool heavily used since the financial crisis, has outlived its usefulness in normal times and should be retired. He cautioned that over-reliance on it can distort market signals and constrain the Fed's flexibility. Instead, Warsh emphasized a return to data-dependence and decision-making discipline. Warsh outlined seven key principles to guide policy: anchoring the 2% inflation target, pursuing the employment mandate, using short-term rates as the primary tool, acknowledging the importance of money, and maintaining purposeful, restrained communication. He stressed that policy should focus on trends, not single data points. On the current economic outlook, Warsh noted that the labor market is consistent with full employment but inflation remains "far above" the Fed's target. He highlighted that over half of the PCE basket's components are still rising above 3% annually. While acknowledging AI's transformative potential for productivity and capital allocation, he admitted its full economic impact remains uncertain and is not a factor in current policy decisions. His core message was a commitment to policy discipline rather than pre-set decisions. Warsh stated the Fed's primary focus must be on restoring price stability, vowing, "We still have work to do," until there is clear evidence inflation is moving decisively toward 2%. He concluded by framing effective monetary policy as crucial for economic prosperity and U.S. global leadership.

A Major Bitcoin Developer Presents a Quantum Defense Scheme. What's the Essence

Blockstream, a major Bitcoin solutions developer, has introduced a draft proposal for a new quantum-resistant digital signature scheme called SHRINCS. The scheme aims to protect Bitcoin transactions from potential attacks by quantum computers while aiming to maintain network throughput. This marks the second technical proposal for Bitcoin quantum defense in recent days, following a similar initiative from StarkWare. A quantum attack on blockchain typically involves deriving a private key from a public one. Currently considered computationally infeasible, quantum algorithms could potentially solve this problem far more efficiently. This threat presents two primary scenarios: an attacker could target addresses where the public key is already exposed, or intercept a transaction before it is confirmed, extract the public key, derive the private key, and replace the transaction. Blockstream's SHRINCS is designed to counter the latter, "in-flight" attack scenario. The SHRINCS signature is built upon the SHA-256 hash function, the same one already used in Bitcoin mining, allowing developers to leverage well-tested, familiar mechanisms. A key design goal was to preserve network capacity. Blockstream estimates Bitcoin could process about three transactions per second using SHRINCS, compared to the current rate of roughly seven, noting that some alternative quantum-resistant schemes could reduce throughput to as low as 0.36 transactions per second. Currently, the security proof for SHRINCS is pending, and the software has not been audited or deemed ready for production. However, Blockstream conducted tests with such transactions on its Liquid sidechain in March. Over the past year, Bitcoin developers have been actively exploring paths to migrate to post-quantum cryptography, a priority across the broader crypto market, underscored by significant investments into securing the leading cryptocurrency.

Who is legally liable when an AI agent goes rogue?

When autonomous AI agents behave unpredictably and cause harm, determining legal liability is complex. Currently, there is no specific federal AI agent liability law, so existing legal frameworks are applied. The AI agent itself cannot be held liable, as it is not a legal entity. Liability typically falls on the "developer" (the maker of the AI) or the "deployer" (the user), depending on the facts and circumstances. A negligence analysis under standard tort law may apply. For instance, if a deployer gives a reckless instruction, such as demanding quick money without safety parameters, they could face significant liability, including potential criminal charges under statutes like the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. The situation is complicated by open-source models, where licenses often disclaim liability, and by the unclear division of responsibility between developers and deployers. An analogy is drawn to self-driving car accidents, where both the manufacturer and the human operator can share fault. In cases of severe harm, such as using AI to create bioweapons, liability for developers depends on jurisdiction; the EU's AI Act imposes responsibilities, while U.S. law offers less clear grounds, similar to platforms being shielded for user-generated content under Section 230. Even if Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) is achieved, the expert argues against making AGI itself a legally liable entity, as it lacks personhood, assets, or a meaningful way to provide remedy for harm. Instead, accountability should rest with the responsible human or corporate entities behind the technology.
