As Ethereum’s Pectra upgrade gets closer, Alchemy’s Will Hennessy talks about why EIP-7702 isn’t for beginners and what blockchain developers need to be aware of. Ethereum developers have announced that the highly anticipated Pectra upgrade will launch on April 8. The update will introduce new mechanisms aimed at boosting Ethereum’s transaction processing speed, reducing gas fees, and adding smart accounts that can execute multiple transactions simultaneously and even pay gas fees with different cryptocurrencies.

Blockchain and Crypto have a complicated status in China: Beijing says no to crypto but yes to blockchain. It bans trading yet builds infrastructure. Now, with Hong Kong offering regulated crypto markets, insiders say a loophole is emerging. If China already allows investors to buy U.S. stocks through its Qualified Domestic Institutional Investor (QDII) program, why not bitcoin? The key, one expert argued on stage at Consensus Hong Kong, is control, and Beijing may have just found a way to keep it. In China, there are two systems for mainland investors to buy and sell stock outside China. First, there’s…
Ethereum’s core developers decided Thursday to proceed on schedule with the network’s highly anticipated Pectra upgrade, even after a testnet deployed to serve as a practice run for the update failed to finalize earlier this week. On Monday, Ethereum’s developers initiated the Holesky testnet, an effective dress rehearsal of the Pectra upgrade that wouldn’t impact the network’s mainnet. In a somewhat rare occurrence for Ethereum, the testnet failed to finalize. Days later, the mock upgrade still hasn’t been successfully implemented. During a developer meeting this morning, Ethereum’s leadership acknowledged that the problem posed by the incident was serious—but also highly…

Crypto transfers are being restricted in Europe through heavy know-your-customer (KYC) procedures and blocks, potentially linked to the Travel Rule, according to several local reports. Hasu, the strategy lead at Flashbots, reported that Coinbase is blocking transfers in Europe to recipients other than the user. Additionally, when sending crypto to a self-custodial wallet, the user must sign a message to prove ownership. If the user receives funds instead of sending them, the sender must be identified, including passport identification. This applies even if the user sends money to his Coinbase account from another source. Hasu said he didn’t try to…

The last time Bitcoin displayed a similar divergence, price movements led to a prolonged downturn. Currently trading at $88,643, Bitcoin has dropped 7.95% within four…
