By the end of 2025, a corner of the market most Ethereum traders rarely watch had built a position large enough to matter for everyone else. Everstake’s annual Ethereum staking report estimates that public companies’ “digital asset treasuries” collectively held roughly 6.5–7.0 million $ETH by December, which is more than 5.5% of the circulating supply. The number is huge, but the more important part is why these companies chose $ETH in the first place. Bitcoin’s corporate-treasury playbook is built around scarcity and reflexivity: buy coins, let the market re-rate the equity wrapper at a premium, then issue stock to buy…

Network News VITALIK BUTERIN SAYS LAYER-2 ROADMAP ‘NO LONGER MAKES SENSE’: Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin said the role of layer-2 networks needs to be reconsidered as the blockchain’s main network continues to scale and transaction costs remain low. In a post on X, Buterin said the original rollup-centric roadmap, which positioned layer-2s as the primary way Ethereum would scale, “no longer makes sense.” That roadmap envisioned layer-2s as secure extensions of Ethereum that would handle most transactions while inheriting Ethereum’s security guarantees, often described as “branded shards” of the network. According to Buterin, two developments have challenged that original vision…
