Banks Likely to Choose Ethereum for Finance, Says Raoul Pal

Top crypto executives are making a stronger call on Ethereum’s role in traditional finance. In their view, banks will prefer Ethereum when real money, real assets, and real settlement move on-chain.

Real Vision’s Raoul Pal says Wall Street is already moving toward blockchain infrastructure. The remaining question is not whether banks adopt blockchain, but which network they trust most. His bet is on Ethereum, the largest DeFi network globally.

Why Banks May Choose Ethereum

Pal said large financial institutions care most about uptime, resilience, scale, and proven history.

Banks do not usually bet core systems on untested technology. They prefer infrastructure with a long operating record, deep liquidity, large developer support, and clear security standards. This is where Ethereum stands out.

He said, “The entire banking system will go to $ETH,” adding that finance will remain multi-chain rather than single-chain. The argument is that decision-makers choose systems that reduce career and operational risk.

Why XRP Value Is Rising Despite Weak Price Action: XRPL Validator Explains
$XRP recent price weakness may be masking a notable development within the ecosystem.

Vet, a widely followed XRPL validator, shared this perspective during a recent podcast appearance with Krippenreiter.

While $XRP’s price momentum has failed to impress, underlying network activity and development suggest that its fundamental value is quietly strengthening.

The 4.5 signal: Why Glassnode’s RHODL ratio says the bitcoin bottom may be in

The RHODL ratio, by Glassnode, a key on-chain metric tracking the balance between long-term and short-term bitcoin holders, is flashing signals more consistent with a market bottom than a cycle top, after hitting a ratio of 4.5.

Currently sitting at its third highest level on record, the indicator shows that wealth is increasingly concentrated in older coins, as younger, more speculative holdings have been largely flushed out during the 50% correction in bitcoin over the past six months.

The ratio compares the value of coins held by longer-term investors, typically those holding for six months to three years, against coins held by short-term participants, defined as one day to three months. By measuring this balance, it offers insight into whether the market is dominated by seasoned holders or fresh demand from new entrants.

A rising ratio often reflects coins aging and a decline in speculative activity, rather than an influx of new buyers. This dynamic typically emerges after sharp corrections which can be seen in 2015, 2019 and 2022.

There are two occasions where the RHODL ratio has been higher than now, is 2015 (ratio of 5) and 2022 (ratio of 7), both cycle lows, which could suggest there is further downside for bitcoin.

However, pushing to even higher levels typically requires an even deeper collapse in short-term holder activity and near-complete demand exhaustion, conditions that are less evident today given the 25% price recovery from the February lows, negative perpetual funding rates and broader macro risk environment which has seen S&P 500 hit new all-time highs.

DoubleZero, a network focused on speeding up blockchain data for traders, has launched a new platform called DoubleZero Edge that delivers faster real-time data from Solana, aiming to bring Wall Street-style infrastructure to crypto markets.

By using a dedicated fiber network instead of the public internet, the platform reduces delays in data delivery and introduces a new model where Solana validators can earn revenue by supplying market data to subscribers.

DoubleZero Foundation, a project building high-speed data infrastructure for blockchains like Solana, has rolled out a new platform to speed up how trading firms access crypto market data — a sign of growing demand for Wall Street-style systems in digital asset markets.

The project, called DoubleZero Edge, went live on Thursday. Its first offering is a real-time feed of raw data from the Solana blockchain, giving traders faster access to information that can influence prices.
