In many people's traditional understanding, Ethereum's core positioning has always been that of a "world computer" or a "global settlement layer."

For the past decade, it has indeed been responsible for executing smart contracts, hosting DeFi, and supporting NFTs, essentially becoming a programmable financial and application execution layer.

However, on March 12th, Vitalik Buterin proposed a rather refreshing perspective—the crypto industry may be overcomplicating the practical uses of blockchain. Ethereum's most fundamental value may not be the smart contract function we've been emphasizing, but rather a very simple primitive:

a globally shared "public bulletin board" in a cryptographic sense.

Many users may also wonder, is this a functional regression from "computer" to "bulletin board," or are there other considerations?


I. The "Globally Shared Memory" Behind the "Bulletin Board"

The term "public bulletin board," as the name suggests, primarily refers to data availability.

 The concept is simple to grasp. Imagine a giant bulletin board posted in a city center square—readable by anyone, irrevocable, and uncensored. Here, we're referring to a global bulletin board: users worldwide can verify the data's existence; even the most powerful government cannot erase it, and no administrator can prevent you from publishing compliant content.

Ultimately, many digital systems, such as secure online voting and software version control, don't primarily require complex financial transactions. Instead, they need a censorship-resistant, publicly verifiable data publishing space—precisely the "bulletin board" that cryptography has long sought:

Secure Voting Systems: Traditional electronic voting relies on centralized databases, which are vulnerable to tampering. Publishing voting records on Ethereum allows anyone to verify the result

Federal Reserve Governor Miran Maintains Benchmark Expectation of Four Rate Cuts This Year

Miran pointed out that short-term oil price fluctuations caused by the Middle East geopolitical conflict are insufficient to change the path of four rate cuts this year. Last week, he voted against an immediate 25 basis point rate cut.

Goolsbee added that the new round of inflationary shocks triggered by the Middle East situation has made the situation severe, with the job market nearing full employment and inflation still far above the 2% target.

Market Impact: Rate cut expectations may face short-term adjustments, but the benchmark path remains unchanged. If oil prices remain high, they will prioritize pushing up inflation risks, and bond market yields may come under pressure.

HTX Year-End Carnival: 150,000 USDT Over 28 Days!

Charles Hoskinson used a March 19 livestream to deliver a defense of crypto as a response to political dysfunction, market weakness, and what he described as a broader collapse in institutional legitimacy.

Broadcasting from Colorado, the Cardano founder framed the current macro backdrop in apocalyptic terms, citing war, layoffs, inflationary pressure tied to energy costs, and a growing sense of social pessimism. Markets, he argued, are reacting to that broader stress rather than suffering from a crypto-specific failure.

“The markets are down a little bit. They should be,” Hoskinson said. “The world is literally on fire and we’re trying to douse the flames by pouring money on the fire, thinking somehow that’ll make the fire go out.” In his telling, weak market conditions across crypto, real estate, and other asset classes are symptoms of a deeper problem: a legacy system losing coherence.

A Bigger Future For Cardano And Crypto

That was the core thesis of the livestream. Hoskinson argued that monetary systems, governance systems, and even shared social meaning are all being contested at once, creating a more structural crisis than a single recession or geopolitical conflict. Against that backdrop, he positioned crypto as infrastructure for whatever replaces the current order.

“If we win, we will bank the unbanked. Everybody will own their own identity and we will for the first time in human history have fair markets for everyone everywhere,” he said. “The billionaires, the three comma club gets the same marketplace as the poorest people in the world.”

The remarks were also a defense of persistence during a weaker market cycle. Hoskinson repeatedly pushed back against what he called cynicism inside and outside crypto, arguing that falling token prices have not invalidated the sector’s long-term purpose. He cast the industry as a tools

How much is a single post really worth?

At 7:05 AM ET on March 23, Trump posted a message in all caps on Truth Social, essentially saying that the US and Iran had had "very good and productive conversations" over the past two days, and that he had ordered a five-day halt to strikes against Iranian power plants and energy facilities.

When this post was published, the US stock market had not yet opened. However, the futures market is real-time.

Within minutes, Dow Jones futures rose by more than 1,000 points, and S&P 500 futures rose by 2.7%. Brent crude oil plummeted from $113 per barrel to $98, a drop of more than 13%.

G: L1 for Mass Adoption & Omnichain Future

Why are Cardano holders down 43%: is ADA near a bottom now?


Cardano price hovers near $0.30 as altcoins eye gains.

$ADA is down 74% since peaking above $1 in early 2025.

Downturn sees 43% of holders in the red.

Cardano has dropped out of the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization amid downside pressure.

Meanwhile, on‑chain data reveals that average wallets currently sit deep in the red, with roughly a 43% loss over the past year.

This drawdown has impacted investor sentiment, leaving $ADA facing potential bearish acceleration towards new multi-year lows.

Cardano wallets in red amid $ADA price decline

According to analytics firm Santiment, average wallets active on the Cardano network over the last 12 months are sitting on a return of about -43%.

This marks substantial unrealized losses across the Cardano ecosystem, and aligns with $ADA’s steep price declines over the past year.

Notably, the cryptocurrency’s value has shed roughly 74% of its gains since hitting highs of $1.19 in January 2025.

The combination of higher entry levels and prolonged bearish price behavior has left many holders “underwater.”

In this case, any little uptick has become an immediate incentive to book profits.

Currently, sentiment‑driven indicators highlight the negative terrain bulls are trying to navigate. Data also shows the token’s MVRV (Market Value to Realized Value) metric has dropped sharply.

In practical terms, a negative MVRV suggests that, on average, selling all $ADA at current prices would crystallize a loss for the typical investor.

While not the best of predicaments, the metric has historically meant market capitulation gives way to long‑term accumulation.

In recent months, $ADA has seen long‑term believers step in, with whales taking advantage of dips for discounted price levels.

A senior executive at Goldman Sachs says markets remain resilient despite elevated volatility and geopolitical uncertainty.On Goldman Sachs’ “The Markets” podcast, John Storey, co-head of equities distribution, describes the current environment as “fragile,” with investors heavily hedged and volatility near extreme levels.Despite this, Storey is surprised at how well equities have held up and remains bullish on a number of sectors.“When I was here last June, I pressed the European financials theme. It’s been incredibly resilient during this period. It’s still high single-digit PEs. It’s double-digit earnings growth. Double-digit shareholder returns. And still going through earnings upgrades. So, I like that theme a lot. And then I think the second theme which we just talked about is this shift from asset-light to asset-heavy in the sectors we talked about. So, data center, defense, mining, materials, you know, all the equipment spend is just a great place to be.”Storey highlights the ongoing rotation from asset-light to asset-heavy sectors, particularly those tied to infrastructure and physical capital, as investors reassess the long-term impact of artificial intelligence on business models.He also reiterates confidence in the “picks and shovels” approach to (AI) investing.“I think the picks and shovels trade around AI has worked incredibly well. The capex spend, as we keep revising up our number, or corporates keep revising up their number on capex spend, is playing through in the markets. So, how can you not be long the likes of the picks and shovels, semiconductors, et cetera.”Storey adds that while AI-driven productivity gains are widely anticipated, the earnings impact remains less clear, reinforcing the appeal of companies supplying the infrastructure behind the technology rather than its end applications.Looking ahead, he said investors shoul

Bitcoin finds stability at 2023 investor cost basis, echoing past cycle

in this case Bitcoin recently found support at a key onchain metric the average realized price for a specific year the 2023 cost basis.

The 2023 average realized price currently sits around $63,700. During the local bottom in early February, when bitcoin dropped roughly 50% from its October all-time high, to roughly $60,000, price effectively tested and held this level as support.

This behavior mirrors the previous cycle. In early 2023, as the bull run began, bitcoin experienced several small corrections and repeatedly used the 2023 realized price as support. This can be observed in March, July, and September 2023, when price consolidated in the $20,000 to $26,000 range.

Looking at newer cohorts, the 2026 average realized price started the year near $90,000 and has since declined to around $77,000. With bitcoin currently trading just above $70,000, the average 2026 buyer is underwater. Notably, this cohort's cost basis has also fallen below both the 2024 cohort at $81,500 and the 2025 cohort at $96,400.

Zooming out further, the aggregate realized price, which represents the average cost basis of all coins in circulation, is currently around $54,360. Historically, bitcoin has traded below this level in every major bear market, including 2011, 2015, 2019, and 2022.

So far in this cycle, bitcoin's lowest price has been around $60,000. If that level fails, it becomes the next key support to watch, with the realized price at $54,000 acting as a deeper historical floor.

Although the official inequality indices show some improvement in income gaps in Israel, the actual situation reflected in the household expenditures basket is more complicated. A new study by the Shoresh Institute for Socioeconomic Research indicates that the gaps in basic consumption - mainly food, housing, and transportation - have remained deep in recent decades and have even widened in some cases.According to a study conducted by researcher Yoav Tuvia, the income inequality index fell from 36% in 2003 to 33% in 2023, while inequality in economic consumption declined from 28% to 26% in this time span. A more detailed look at the main household expenditure items, however, shows a different picture - not only have the gaps between rich and poor failed to narrow, but some of them have actually widened.Gaps in food, for example, have increased. Per capita expenditure on food in the top quintile are now 5.8 times as much as in the bottom quintile, compared with a ratio of 5.2 two decades ago. Beyond the volume of spending, gaps are also evident in the composition of consumption. Wealthy households spend 22% of their food budget on meals away from home, compared with only 6% among poor households. Among the bottom quintile, on the other hand, a larger proportion of the budget is devoted to basic products such as meat, poultry, and fish. There are also gaps within the same income level: Arab households in the bottom quintile spend more on food than non-haredi (ultra-Orthodox) Jewish households, while this expenditure is even lower among haredim.Gaps in housing expenditure have also widened, primarily among poor people. Per capita spending on housing in the bottom quintile is NIS 858, compared with NIS 1,984 in the top quintile. Furthermore, the percentage of housing ownership remains higher in the upper quintiles: 76%, compared with 63% in the lower qu
