Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin advocates for the optimization of Layer1 security and decentralization features to streamline how builders develop Layer2s. In a recent X post, Buterin comments on a take about how alternative Layer1s eventually end up becoming Layer2s overtime. The Ethereum (ETH) co-founder believes that on-chain builders should learn to “lean into the L1’s offerings” in order to maximize L2 for what it is. According to Buterin, developers should stop trying to rebuild everything from scratch. Instead, L2 builders should leverage the strengths of Ethereum’s L1. These features include security, censorship resistance, proofs and data availability. By offloading these…

Kraken, on the other hand, is skipping the charter route and going straight into debit and credit cards, set to launch before the end of the month. Executives are calling it a “natural convergence.” That’s the phrase Arjun Sethi, Kraken’s co-CEO, used…

Notably, analysts and industry voices are observing a striking lack of retail excitement, even as Bitcoin surpasses its historical price ceiling. Muted Retail Sentiment Despite…

In a recent interview, Bailey said he would much rather see the banking sector focus on tokenized deposits, digital versions of traditional bank deposits, than on stablecoins, which are privately issued digital tokens typically pegged to a fiat currency like the US dollar or British pound. His concern, he said, is that stablecoins could…
