Ethereum co-founder has sold 1,400 UNI coins, alongside KNC and DINU tokens, for 16,796 USDC. The transaction comes as bears dominate the broader market. UNI bulls should hold prices above $5 to support short-term recoveries. Cryptocurrencies display bearishness as Bitcoin wavers below $90,000, currently trading at $89,800. Amidst the pessimistic sentiments, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin sparked the altcoin community by reducing his crypto holdings, including 1,400 UNI coins (according to Arkham data). Alongside Uniswap, Buterin has also dumped 10,000 KNC and 40 trillion DINU tokens, netting 16,796 USDC. While the transaction might seem modest in dollar amount, any transfer from…

The cryptocurrency sector remains weak as bearish sentiments prevail. Indeed, recent price drops, muted trading activities, and worries about short-term recoveries have seen many investors adopt a defensive bias.

Ethereum price struggles below $3,000 with buyers defending $2,750–$2,800 support. Open interest rises as leveraged longs increase, raising volatility risk. Fusako upgrade sparks interest, but market remains cautious amid outflows. Ethereum price remains under pressure after a week of sharp declines, institutional outflows, and renewed macro uncertainty. The cryptocurrency has attempted several intraday rebounds, but none have been strong enough to shift the broader downtrend. As investors assess shifting liquidity conditions and await the upcoming Fusako upgrade, the key question is whether Ethereum (ETH) is preparing for a relief rally or bracing for another leg lower. Selling pressure meets fragile…

Corporations, US presidential candidate Mitt Romney reminds us, are people. Whether or not you agree with the conclusions that his partisans draw from that claim, the statement certainly carries a large amount of truth. What is a corporation, after all, but a certain group of people working together under a set of specific rules? When a corporation owns property, what that really means is that there is a legal contract stating that the property can only be used for certain purposes under the control of those people who are currently its board of directors – a designation itself modifiable by…

In the first part of this series, we talked about how the internet allows us to create decentralized corporations, automatons that exist entirely as decentralized networks over the internet, carrying out the computations that keep them “alive” over thousands of servers. As it turns out, these networks can even maintain a Bitcoin balance, and send and receive transactions. These two capacities: the capacity to think, and the capacity to maintain capital, are in theory all that an economic agent needs to survive in the marketplace, provided that its thoughts and capital allow it to create sellable value fast enough to…

In the first two parts of this series, we talked about what the basic workings of a decentralized autonomous corporation might look like, and what kinds of challenges it might need to deal with to be effective. However, there is still one question that we have not answered: what might such corporations be useful for? Bitcoin developer Jeff Garzik once suggested that one application migh be a sort of decentralized Dropbox, where users can upload their files to a resilient peer-to-peer network that would be incentivized to keep those files reliably backed up. But aside from this particular example, what…

The purpose of this post is not to say that Ethereum will be using Slasher in place of Dagger as its main mining function. Rather, Slasher is a useful construct to have in our war chest in case proof of stake mining becomes substantially more popular or a compelling reason is provided to switch. Slasher may also benefit other cryptocurrencies that wish to exist independently of Ethereum. Special thanks to tacotime for some inspiration, and for Jack Walker for improvement suggestions. Proof of stake mining has for a long time been a large area of interest to the cryptocurrency community.…
