Ethereum is entering a quite special phase. The layer 1 network just recorded over 2.2 million transactions in a single day, a record high, while the average fee is only about 17 cents, much lower than in 2022 when each transaction sometimes cost over $200.
The main reason comes from upgrades in 2025, which enable Ethereum to handle more transactions at lower costs. As a result, users are starting to return to the mainnet instead of relying heavily on Layer 2.
Not only users, but developers are also returning to Ethereum. The number of new smart contracts has reached a record high, indicating

You can be right
And still lose money
This is one of the hardest lessons the market teaches investors. It sounds very unfair, but the market is not created to reward early correctness. The market rewards endurance and time.
In the late 1990s, many believed that the internet would change the world. They were right. The internet truly changed everything.
But investors who poured heavily into internet stocks from the mid to late 90s still saw their assets plummet when the dot-com bubble burst. Amazon fell nearly 90%. Apple dropped about 80%. Microsoft lost about half its value. Priceline almost c

Starting from 1/1/2026, China will allow banks to pay interest on the digital renminbi (e-CNY) holdings.
This means that e-CNY is no longer just a payment currency but will resemble a bank deposit, earning interest and being protected like regular deposits. After years of testing, e-CNY still struggles to compete with WeChat Pay and Alipay, so paying interest is seen as a way to attract users back.
China is also promoting the use of e-CNY across borders, although domestic crypto transactions are still prohibited.#Gate2025AnnualReportComing #BitcoinGoldBattle $BTC $ETH $SOL

According to Rob Hadick, a partner at Dragonfly, Solana and Ethereum will coexist and develop together in the race for asset tokenization, and no blockchain will completely "beat" the others.
Ethereum currently hosts many stablecoins and on-chain asset values, making it suitable for finance and tokenization. Meanwhile, Solana excels in speed and transaction volume, making it suitable for applications that require fast processing such as trading.
Since in the future many assets will be tokenized, no single blockchain can handle everything. Each blockchain will serve different needs, and there i
