PoW矿工无疑是最大输家。

以太坊合并预计将在 9 月 15 日左右进行,或许将成为以太坊历史上最重要的历史时刻之一。虽然加密生态将从中受益,但并非每个人都会成为赢家,我们梳理了 3 个潜在的最大赢家和 2 大输家,下面就一起来看看吧。

以太坊合并后的最大赢家:ETH

合并之后给以太坊带来的最大影响就是 ETH 市值有可能超越 BTC ,成为新晋加密货币之王。虽然这个潜在影响对某些人来说似乎有些牵强,但毫无疑问,围绕合并后的 ETH 价格走势一直受到市场参与者关注。根据 Coingecko 数据显示,虽然当前 ETH 价格距离 4,878.26 美元历史高点仍有较大距离,但最近 7 天涨幅达到 10.3%,而同期 BTC 涨幅为 8.0%。

另一方面,以太坊合并后 ETH 与宏观经济因素挂钩也将越来越紧密。SmartFi 企业解决方案副总裁 Chris Terry 表示,从长远来看,世界需要更高效的区块链,因此 ETH 将成为最终赢家,但话虽如此,由于宏观经济影响,无论合并后权益证明共识机制有多好,在全球经济走低和股市暴跌大环境下,ETH 走势可能仍有一些风险。

以太坊合并后的另两个赢家:DeFi 和 NFT

如今,数百个 DeFi 生态系统项目建立在以太坊区块链上,许多 NFT 项目也是如此,以太坊合并将会成为 DeFi 和 NFT 增长的最大驱动力之一。

现阶段,铸造 NFT 需要消耗的硬件和能源较大,不少环保人士甚至形容“铸造一枚 NFT 就像在烧毁一片森林”,而在合并之后,以太坊区块链的能耗将大幅降低。FITCHIN 首席执行官 Santiago Portela 表示:“合并只是以太坊扩展的第一步,最终整个网络将变得更便宜、更快、更容易使用。当然,合并是这一切的基石,而这一基石对于 DeFi 和 NFT 等服务至关重要,因为 DeFi 和 NFT 都需要更快、更便宜的区块链支持。简而言之,所有依赖以太坊的应用程序最终都将受益于这种向权益证明的过渡。”

GOGO Protocol 创始人 Krugljakow 补充说:“虽然合并本身不会立即让以太坊变得更快、更便宜,但它为后续的升级奠定了基础。这就是为什么它是如此重要的事件。”

以太坊合并后的最大输家:PoW 矿工

正如上文提到的,合并后以太坊将从工作量证明(PoW )共识机制转向权益证明机制,能耗也将减少 99.95%,这意味绝大多数昂贵且高能耗的矿机将变得一无是处,矿工也将成为以太坊合并后的最大输家。加密基础设施公司 Blockdaemon 以太坊生态系统负责人 Freddy Zwanzger 直言不讳地称:

“以太坊合并后的最大输家就是 PoW 矿工,虽然他们可能会尝试建立 PoW-ETH,但这种方式不会获得长久成功,质押 ETH 的验证者显然将从更高的奖励中受益。”

根据 The Block Research 发布的《2022 年数字资产展望报告》输家显示,以太坊矿工创造了 165 亿美元的收入,同比增长 678%,创历史新高,这主要是由于二季度和三季度 NFT 活动激增导致交易费用收入增加。实际上,以太坊硬件矿工已经在硬件设备上投资了数十亿美元,一旦合并完成,这些设备很快将变得无用,他们将需要迁移开采其他加密资产,而这些资产的利润显然比 ETH 要低得多。

以太坊合并后的另一输家:投机者

需要注意的是,尽管以太坊合并会给网络和生态带来许多积极变化,但升级过程依然非常复杂且存在较大的不确定性,这可能导致加密市场的波动性增加,因此想利用合并的投机者最终可能会以失败收场。

ECO 首席执行官 Andy Bromberg 解释说:“鉴于合并技术的复杂程度,可能会出现意想不到的问题,虽然测试网合并总体上进展顺利,但这种规模的迁移仍然存在不可知的风险。 其次,中心化和去中心化产品——无论是借贷协议还是交易所——都可能在分叉 方面遇到问题。 合并之后,会突然出现多条区块链链并存,也可能会带来一系列问题。”

不仅如此,以太坊合并后的不确定性很可能会产生“涟漪效应”,最终波及到比特币和更广泛的加密市场,导致整个加密/DeFi 领域将“出现很多混乱”,因此想在此过程中投机的人或许会面临巨大风险。

Super Spiral Mega-Boom, Micron's Earnings Report Rekindles the Semiconductor Bull Run

On June 25, 2026, Micron Technology released its blockbuster Q3 FY2026 results, significantly exceeding market expectations and reigniting confidence in the semiconductor bull market. Revenue soared to $41.456 billion (vs. ~$35.4B expected), up 346% year-over-year, while GAAP net profit surged nearly 15 times to $28.243 billion. Guidance for Q4 was even more striking, with projected revenue of approximately $50 billion, far surpassing prior estimates. The report highlighted that the AI boom is now fueling growth across Micron's entire product stack, not just HBM. Cloud memory, core data center, SSD, mobile, and automotive businesses all saw revenue growth exceeding 250-600%, with margins hovering around 80%. While HBM4 is already in volume shipment and 2026 capacity is sold out, AI-driven demand is also tightening supply for traditional DRAM and NAND, sustaining a strong pricing cycle. A pivotal development is Micron's shift toward a "demand-first" model. The company disclosed 16 long-term strategic customer agreements (SCAs), most spanning 5 years to 2030, covering about 20% of DRAM and one-third of NAND shipments. These are take-or-pay contracts, with 14 agreements already securing roughly $100 billion in guaranteed future revenue and $22 billion in customer performance assurances. To fulfill this locked-in demand, Micron plans substantial capacity expansion, with Q4 capital expenditure projected at ~$10 billion. This investment, backed by concrete long-term orders rather than cyclical speculation, marks a historic change for the memory industry. Following the earnings release, Micron's stock surged 16% after-hours, lifting the broader semiconductor sector globally. The report served as a powerful signal that AI infrastructure build-out is accelerating, with memory positioned as a central protagonist in the ongoing narrative.

Deciphering the Ethereum Foundation's New Structure: Reaffirming Self-Sovereignty Amid Institutionalization Trends

Summary: The Ethereum Foundation (EF) has announced a major restructuring, laying off 20% of its staff and introducing a new five-layer operational framework. This move aims to clarify the EF's mission and reaffirm Ethereum's core principle of self-sovereignty amidst growing institutionalization in the crypto space. The five layers are: 1. **Protocol Layer**: Focuses on maintaining Ethereum's foundational "CROPS" values—Censorship-resistant, Robust, Open, Private, and Secure. This involves core technical work like secure hard forks and mitigating toxic MEV. 2. **Access Layer**: Ensures users can practically exercise self-sovereignty through actions like reading the chain and making transactions. A key principle is the "zero option," meaning a trusted, non-intermediated path must always exist as an alternative to any centralized service. 3. **User Layer**: Bridges the protocol and access layers by grounding EF's work in the real needs of users and organizations. This is seen as crucial for moving beyond a purely research-driven approach and ensuring development effectively serves the ecosystem. 4. **Community Layer**: Responsible for building and maintaining consensus around Ethereum's core values both internally and externally. This involves guarding against centralization, upholding technological neutrality, and preventing short-term commercial interests from undermining CROPS principles. 5. **Institutional Layer**: Manages EF's engagement with institutions, but with the precondition of self-sovereignty. The goal is not to make it easier for institutions to control users, but to demonstrate how Ethereum's technology can enable better integrations. The article argues that while institutional adoption brings legitimacy, it also risks diluting crypto's foundational ethos of decentralization. The new structure represents EF's effort to navigate this tension, upholding its core mission while actively engaging with a broader, more complex ecosystem.

OpenRouter: How Did This 'AI Model Relay Station' Achieve a $10 Billion Valuation?

OpenRouter: The Model Router Building a $10B+ Company This article explores OpenRouter, a platform that aggregates access to over 400 AI models from 70+ providers (like OpenAI, Claude, Gemini) through a single API. It has grown into a unicorn with a $1.3B valuation by 2026, processing massive scale—reaching 100 trillion tokens monthly. Its core value isn't just being a "model supermarket." For developers building real-world AI applications, managing multiple models for different tasks (e.g., cheap models for titles, powerful ones for long articles) is complex. OpenRouter acts as a critical "model scheduling layer," handling routing, failover between providers, cost optimization, and enterprise features like zero-data-retention policies and budget controls. OpenRouter's business model is a "toll fee": it charges a small platform fee (5.5%) on purchased credits while passing model costs directly to users. Its revenue scales with the tokens flowing through its system, which saw explosive growth as AI apps evolved. Key growth drivers include: 1) The explosion of specialized models, increasing choice complexity; 2) AI apps shifting focus from performance to cost optimization; 3) The rise of AI agents that require more reliable, multi-step model calls. However, risks remain. Large enterprises or cloud providers (AWS, Google Cloud) could build similar internal gateways. Its position between model suppliers and developers could also create future tension over pricing and data control. To stay ahead, OpenRouter must deepen its enterprise features and prove it's more than just a request forwarder.

Bitcoin Falls Below $60,000 Again; After 20 Months, We've Reached a New Low

Bitcoin Drops Below $60,000, Hitting a 20-Month Low Bitcoin fell below the key $60,000 psychological level again, reaching a low of $59,023—its lowest point in approximately 20 months, dating back to October 2024. While it later recovered slightly to around $60,600, this marks its third significant breach of $60,000 this year. The downturn is attributed to two primary factors. First, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs are experiencing their longest streak of net outflows since launch, with nearly $5.94 billion withdrawn over 30 days. This creates sustained selling pressure as Authorized Participants sell Bitcoin to meet redemptions. Second, shifting macroeconomic expectations are adding pressure. Strong U.S. job data and hawkish remarks from Fed officials have increased market pricing for potential rate hikes, reversing the earlier liquidity-driven bullish sentiment and prompting a shift away from risk assets like Bitcoin. Analyst views are mixed. 21Shares maintains a bullish long-term outlook, expecting prices to recover towards $100,000, citing historical post-halving cycles and substantial ETF holdings as a base. In contrast, Arthur Hayes predicts a potential bottom around $40,000 within six months due to persistent Fed hawkishness. CryptoQuant suggests, based on on-chain data, that the market may not find a bottom until prices fall below the average investor cost basis around $53,000, potentially extending the bearish phase into late 2026 or early 2027. The immediate focus is on upcoming U.S. inflation data and Fed signals. Lower-than-expected CPI could offer relief, but confirmation of sticky inflation or continued ETF outflows may lead to further downside pressure. Bitcoin's ability to hold above $60,000 remains a critical test for the near-term market direction.
