Since 2025, the DeFi field has welcomed a regulatory-friendly situation, with user adoption rates continuously increasing. Decentralized exchanges are gradually eating into market share, liquidity stablecoins have for the first time surpassed mainstream stablecoins, spot Ethereum ETFs are performing strongly but have shown some slowdown, DeFi attention has significantly risen, project buyback plans are performing excellently, and exchange Bitcoin reserves continue to decrease.

Analysts at VanEck have stated that Ethereum is steadily becoming a stronger competitor than Bitcoin in the race for dominance as a value store.
The driving force behind this transformation is the increasing popularity of Digital Asset Treasuries (DATs), with global enterprises increasingly favoring Ethereum and Bitcoin as their choices for digital asset reserves.
Initially, Bitcoin became the primary choice for digital asset treasury due to its fixed supply and recognized stability. However, recent developments have sparked more interest in Ethereum in the market.
The regulatory changes in the United States highlight the necessity of stablecoins and tokenization, which are at the core functions of the Ethereum ecosystem.
This has expanded the use of ETH beyond its original design, and several large brokerages and exchanges have launched tokenized stocks on the Ethereum blockchain.
In addition, the increasing flexibility of Ethereum is seen as its relative advantage.

Berachain itself is a distinctive Layer 1 Blockchain project, whose most recognizable innovation lies in the adoption of the PoL (Proof of Liquidity) Block Reward distribution mechanism. This mechanism transforms the chain's Block Rewards into an economic mechanism within the protocol that drives ecological growth by directly distributing the vast majority of rewards to users and liquidity providers within the ecosystem, thereby driving application growth and on-chain liquidity accumulation.
In this model, all eco-assets participating in staking will directly provide on-chain liquidity support for Berachain. The rewards generated from PoL liquidity mining come from the chain's native incentive mechanism, which aims to build a more capital-efficient and incentive-oriented underlying structure.
Berachain recently upgraded its PoL consensus mechanism and officially released it.

"The greatest advantage of Solana lies in its versatility, as it can simultaneously support multiple different types of applications and tracks."
——Lily Liu, Chair of the Solana Foundation
Many relationships in the world are like a seesaw. On one side, the price of ETH's tenth anniversary coin is recovering, while on the other side, SOL is feeling a bit anxious—it's not just that the road for the "Ethereum killer" has become more difficult, but it also faces a batch of its own "killers"—which somewhat reflects the idea of the wheel of fortune turning.
However, moderate anxiety is not a bad thing for individuals or projects. For the battle-tested Solana, it is even more adept at handling such situations. In this article, we intend to take you through some recent significant moves by Solana's official team, and dive deep into the AI sector.

Vitalik pointed out in an interview that using Ethereum as a treasury asset for businesses is a valuable practice and emphasized the importance of providing multiple access channels. He believes that if the treasury mechanism is kept under control, it can bring positive effects to the Ethereum community, but it is necessary to be wary of the risks of excessive leverage.

What happened in the past 24 hours? Let's take a look at the one-image recap of "Ai&Meme Daily"!
????8/8 update:
Musk retweets Bitcoin wizard animated emoji
Pump launches Glass Full Foundation, which will inject liquidity into ecological tokens.
The auction for dogwifhat's hat, bags.fun founder won with 6.8 BTC.
⚠ Warning: PVP risk is high, be cautious in your bets, must be careful.

Thinking carefully about Vitalik Buterin's latest statements on L2 rapid withdrawals, it's quite interesting.
In simple terms: he believes that achieving quick withdrawals within 1 hour is more important than reaching Stage 2, and the rationale behind this priority adjustment is worth deeper consideration:
1) The one-week withdrawal waiting period has indeed become a major issue in practice, not only resulting in poor user experience but also significantly increasing cross-chain costs.

At 1 AM on August 7th, the long-awaited Bitcoin scaling solution RGB protocol finally went live on the mainnet. To encourage users to experience the RGB protocol on the mainnet, the RGB protocol infrastructure developer Bitlight Labs also launched the test currency RGB on the mainnet. Users can claim RGB through the faucet on the Bitlight Labs official website.
Although RGB is just a test coin, it is essentially the first RGB asset on the Bitcoin mainnet and holds a symbolically significant token name. Therefore, 24 hours before the RGB protocol goes live on the mainnet, there will be a new coin tutorial and FOMO.
