  • Vitalik: Ethereum to Complete Major Third Iteration in Next 5 Years, Quantum Resistance and Privacy as Primary Goals

    On July 5, Vitalik Buterin announced that Ethereum researchers finalized the 'Streamlined Ethereum' roadmap during a conference in Berlin. This is not a one-time upgrade but a series of forks over the next 3 to 4 years (starting from 'I-star'), which will mark the third major era of Ethereum, almost replacing all core components. Core changes include: verification shifting from direct execution to recursive STARK; consensus introducing 1-2 rounds of finality for faster and safer transactions; multi-dimensional Gas pricing; and a complete replacement of existing solutions with quantum-resistant cryptography. The most disruptive change is the state model—current dynamic states only expand to about 2TB, while introducing new scalable states like UTXO and circular buffers, with a total scale reaching up to 100TB, suitable for ERC20/NFT/DeFi, potentially reducing transaction fees by over 10 times after the rewrite; complex applications (like Uniswap pools) will retain the old state without mandatory migration. However, the issue of who will store the 100TB state and the associated incentives has become a new focus of research. Privacy upgrades are now a primary design goal, with all new components needing to support quantum-resistant, intermediary-free privacy transactions. Formal verification will be fully implemented, and there is exploration into introducing RISC-V or leanISA as the underlying VM for the protocol, with EVM potentially becoming a feature at the compilation layer in the future. In terms of scalability metrics, Gas limits, Blob capacity, and block times will be increased multiple times over the next 5 years, with the Glasterdam fork set to significantly raise Gas limits first. In the order of forks, H-star (Hegota) will be the last 'pre-streamlined' fork, after which Ethereum will fully enter the streamlined era. Through this complex yet smooth transition, Ethereum is moving towards a quantum-resistant, massively scalable, privacy-first new network while maximizing the protection of existing applications. This cautious disruption over the next five years has officially begun.

  • Solana Achieves $4.84 Billion in Spot Trading Volume for Tokenized Stocks This Quarter

    On July 3, it was reported that Solana broke multiple records in trading, revenue, and trading volume in the second quarter of 2026. In the tokenized stock sector, Solana's spot trading volume reached $4.84 billion this quarter, capturing over 96% market share. This volume far exceeded that of all other blockchains combined, marking the fourth consecutive quarter that Solana has led this sector, solidifying its dominant position. In terms of decentralized application revenue, the total dApp revenue for this quarter was $257 million, maintaining its lead over all Layer 1 and Layer 2 blockchains for the ninth consecutive quarter. Despite competitive pressure from peers, the enthusiasm of ecosystem developers and actual user demand remains strong. On-chain trading activity has surged, with daily, weekly, and monthly trading volumes all hitting new highs. The total number of non-voting transactions for the quarter approached 9.8 billion, with the overall network transaction volume rising to 59%, reaching an eleven-month high. The perpetual futures trading scale has seen a significant surge, with nominal trading volume for the quarter reaching $183 billion. GMTrade, Pacifica, and Jupiter were the main sources of trading volume, with GMTrade showing impressive growth in asset locking, cumulative trading volume, and protocol fees. The Phoenix platform also gained market recognition with its new features. Meanwhile, the Solana Foundation has proactively reduced its staking holdings, with the staking scale dropping to 4.92% of the total network staking, aiming to weaken its control over network validation and promote the decentralized and mature development of the validator ecosystem. Overall, even though the market is generally perceived to be at the bottom of a bear cycle, Solana's various innovative businesses and fundamental on-chain data are rising against the trend. If this quarter indeed marks the low point of the current market cycle, the existing performance will lay a solid foundation for long-term growth. The article also briefly mentions developments related to Solana's on-chain governance, the Grass rewards controversy, and future plans of the foundation's executives.
  • Venezuela's Largest Oil Refinery Resumes Operations

    On July 3, three sources reported that Venezuela's largest refinery, the Amuay refinery with a processing capacity of 645,000 barrels per day, has resumed operations after a power outage on Friday. It is currently processing approximately 140,000 barrels per day of crude oil, and the fluid catalytic cracking unit (FCC) has also restarted. Following two earthquakes last week that caused significant casualties, several refineries in Venezuela were affected by power outages. Additionally, sources indicated that the El Palito refinery, with a processing capacity of 146,000 barrels per day, has regained power, but staff have not yet been able to restart the production units.

  • Gulf Region Oil Exports Surge in June, UAE Crude Deliveries Reach Record High

    On July 3, data showed that oil exports from the Gulf region in June increased by over 3 million barrels per day compared to May, surpassing 10 million barrels per day, although still 40% lower than pre-war levels. The UAE led the recovery in the oil market, allowing millions of barrels of crude oil that were stranded in the Gulf region to enter the international market, enabling producers to increase output and bring oil prices down to pre-war levels. According to Kpler, the total export volume of crude oil and condensate from Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait, Iraq, and Iran increased by over 3.5 million barrels per day from May, reaching 10.07 million barrels per day. Another freight analysis company, Vortexa, estimated that the oil delivery volume in June was 10.2 million barrels per day, up from 7 million barrels per day in May, but still far below the 16.5 million barrels per day recorded in the same period last year. Data from Kpler, Vortexa, and LSEG indicated that UAE's crude oil exports reached a record high of 3.7 to 3.8 million barrels per day in June, more than 1 million barrels per day higher than in May.
