ZKsync developers, those alchemists of the digital realm, have announced a major protocol upgrade set to unfurl in early Q1 2026. This upgrade, unveiled on a Wednesday steeped in algorithmic mystique, will demand ZKsync Era and other Elastic Network chains to briefly relinquish their current settlement mechanism, trading the ZKsync Gateway for the venerable Ethereum Layer 1 mainnet. A brief sojourn into the past, perhaps? 🧩

Ah, the irony! The very instruments of freedom-Bitcoin, Ethereum, and their lesser brethren-now shackled by the chains of anticipation. 📉 The market, once a tempest of greed, now cowers in the corner, its fear index a pathetic 24, whispering “Extreme Fear” like a mantra. Even the futures open interest has shriveled, a sad 1.3% decline, as if the traders themselves have retreated into hibernation. 🛌
Yet, in this morbid ballet, the XRP and SOL products prance with a mischievous grin, bathed in the verdant glow of gains, though their triumphs are but whispers in the wind compared to the thunderous roars of their fallen brethren. 🌱😏
Amid the broader market volatility, Ethereum has been attempting to hold the recently reclaimed $2,900 level as support to potentially challenge higher resistance levels in the coming days. It’s like watching a toddler try to balance a stack of blocks-mostly chaos, but maybe, maybe, something will stick.
Now, the pressing question-when will ETH finally escape this $3000-$3200 purgatory? Or will it simply nap through 2026? 💤
Crypto exchange MEXC has responded to whistleblower allegations swirling around social media like a tornado in a teacup. 🌀
Circle just announced this big deal with their EURC. We’re talking 300 million euros here! Who knew that digital money could be such a hot topic, huh? This little gem shows just how much people love these regulated euro stablecoins-kind of like pining for a stable relationship.
Daodu’s report is like a crypto fairy tale, complete with BlackRock ETFs, Japanese stablecoins, and tokenized assets. 🧚♂️ For XRP to hit $5, these factors need to align like the stars on a particularly optimistic night. First up? A BlackRock-backed XRP ETF. Because nothing says “mainstream adoption” like a financial giant dipping its toes into the crypto pool. Since November 2025, spot XRP ETFs have raked in over $1 billion. If BlackRock joins the party, we’re looking at $2 billion in inflows. Cha-ching! 💰
